The Tale of the Void Emperor

After making himself roughly comfortable inside the hollow tree truck, Athan assessed his situation carefully.

" First, I don't have a way to store energy inside my body. "

" Second, I don't have energy realm, genesis realm, or soul realm, but instead, I have this region which I named Void region. "

" Third, I can't fly, which is a big let down -_- "

Athan rested his chin on his hand and started to think about how he should progress.

" Hmmm? wait...are you kidding me? " Athan speechlessly saw that his armor that was made up of doom of darkness was dissolving.

He tried to control it, but he couldn't stop this process no matter what he did.

" Fucking Great! "

Actually, He felt that this was the work of the voice that is managing this whole dimension of Roumbra blood war. This doom of darkness was obviously under its control.

*ROARRRRRRRR....*

" Now what? " Athan muttered with annoyance.

Athan created a small hole inside the tree trunk in the direction of the voice and saw a Three-headed Lion.

Athan didn't feel any threat from it, and so, He decided to test his current physical strength. Of course, He first covered himself with the big leaves of the tree since he became naked after his armor dissolved.

Coming out of the hollow trunk, Athan attracted its attention.

" Hey, Stupid lion. Come here for your daddy. "

The Three-headed lion, who had dark green fur and light yellow patterns on its body, looked in the direction of Athan and roared before charging towards him.

Athan stood in a simple boxing stance and waited. But after a second, He frowned because the lion that was coming towards him stopped and opened its three mouths before a tremendous amount of energy gathered into the form of three giant energy bombs before they shot towards Athan.

But Athan didn't move from his position because he still didn't feel any threat from this attack and braced himself.

It only took another second for those giant energy bombs to arrive in front of Athan, and at that exact moment, Athan also punched out with his full strength.

*BOOOOOOM....*

He tried a slight trick with this punch. He coated his soul energy around his fist because he felt that his soul energy was different from how the normal soul energy was supposed to be.

Powerful soul energy can affect everything, but his soul energy appeared to be strange and powerful.

He consumed 10% of his soul energy by coating it around his fist, and when his punch came into contact with the incoming energy radiations from the three giant energy bombs, a strange thing happened.

From the energy radiation to the three giant energy balls, everything disappeared before...appearing inside his void region.

But Athan decided to take a look there later and hurriedly dashed forward in front of the confused three-headed lion and punched with his full power since his fist still had soul energy coated around it.

The lion snapped out of it and swiped its right claw towards Athan.

Athan's punch and the claw met before a tragedy happened. Of course, This tragedy happened to the three-headed lion. 

Athan's remaining soul energy around his fist was consumed, but the lion cried out in despair before it started to dissolve into energy and disappeared.

Of course, at the same time, A mass of additional dark green and yellow light energy appeared inside his void region besides the energy of the three energy bombs, which looked like a mix of green and yellow energy.

Athan was dumbfounded, but he didn't stay here and entered the tree trunk before thinking about what had just happened.

" Alright...So I knew my soul energy could transport energy inside the void region, and I knew that it was powerful than normal soul energy and had additional effects, but...It just dissolved that lion into energy...like seriously? " Athan muttered as he still couldn't believe the thing that just happened.

That lion was not a joke and was a powerful beast that could only be dealt with by my peak-Spirit Astride plane people.

Right at this moment, Athan saw someone appearing in front of him and was shocked. This person appeared in front of him inside the tree trunk out of nowhere.

Athan felt intense danger from this person that looked like a young boy with 5.3 ft height and blur body features. The boy wore simple white clothes like a loose rob and pajama.

" Who are you? " Athan cautiously asked as he felt a threat to his life.

" Your presence is disturbing this dimension. " An emotionless voice rang out the young boy.

" What? " 

Athan frowned because he couldn't understand how he was disturbing this dimension with his presence.

" You have two choices, Either leave from this dimension or die. "

Athan started to sweat because he could feel that death was very close to him right now.

" Can you tell me how am I disturbing this dimension? "

" Leave or die. "

Athan frowned because he wanted to know how his presence affected this dimension, but now he had no other choice.

" I don't know how to leave, so I can't leave this dimension. If you can do that, then be my guest. "

The boy nodded, and with that...Athan disappeared.

...

Athan felt scenery changing in front of his eyes as he appeared at an unfamiliar place with but familiar atmosphere.

" This...is Legendary sector? The atmosphere does feel like that of the Legendary sector that I visited before. "

Athan then took a deep breath before he just sat down and wiped the sweat from his forehead, " That was damn scary..."

He rested for a minute before he stood up and started running towards the mountainous area he saw on the east side.

His current physical body was not as powerful as his previous body, but he knew that this body had some strange property that was definitely due to his mutated soul.

His running speed couldn't break the sound barrier, but it was expected; a strong body doesn't mean fast speed.

After running for a few minutes, He found a small cave and settled inside. He was still a leaf man since he didn't have actual clothes.

After sitting crossed-legged inside, He was feeling headache about how to proceed from now on.

First and foremost, He will need to find a way to gather the primal energy inside his body.
