The Tale of the Void Emperor

The other four leaders were going to use their abilities to stop the black aura, but before they could do so, Athan's voice rang out, " Don't try anything stupid, or he will die faster. "

Hunken also realized and hurriedly shouted in panic, " STOP STOP! Don't do anything! "

He then looked at Athan and started begging, " Please stop this. I'm begging you, Lord Athan. Pl-"

*thud...*

" Aaaaaaaa..."

The black aura spread to his shoulder and neared his chest after devouring his right hand. It also spread to his right-wing that was right below his shoulder on his back.

The other four also started to request Athan to stop this. 

Athan was just coldly looking at Hunken, and after the black aura detached Hunken's right-wing and neared his heart, He decided to stop as he extinguished the darkness of nothingness by controlling the black orb.

Hunken's right hand, right shoulder, and right-wing were forever gone. After standing up, He looked at Athan fearfully.

Athan once again closed his eyes and ignored them.

The five leaders seemed to be talking telepathically as Hunken described his terrifying experience to them.

After a while, Athan once again opened his eyes as he sensed primal essence from the two behind him.

' Looks like they succeeded. '

Turning around, He saw their Law idol bathing into Primal essence and transforming. 

Athan didn't have Law idol because he couldn't follow the norm cultivation path and had to make his own system which he created in the past year.

The white threads were the power of the white orb, and they were truly something. Athan felt that even though the darkness of nothingness and the white power were related, The white power seemed to be more powerful than the darkness of nothingness. He felt that the white power was the very source of the darkness of nothingness. In the past year, He managed to comprehend one more percent power of nothingness but no more progress in white power.

These people have source core inside them and Law idol too which can allow them to use their abilities fast unlike Athan who had to use much time to prepare to use complicated techniques like infinite Shredder which he created.

They can store primal essence inside their source core and use them instantly release their abilities through their Law idol. Law idols can stay inside them, and people can still use abilities, and they can also be summoned outside to use abilities on a large scale.

Law idol is an upgraded form of Genesis Avatar. The Genesis Avatar is transformed when the mind and soul turn into one after they break through to the Law idol plane. At first, Law idol is small and weak, and they gradually make it stronger by comprehending law powers and techniques.

But Athan's mind and soul had directly turned into one after Shiren gathered his soul pieces.

That's why he couldn't absorb genesis energy. Also, Genesis energy was useless outside of the Elenex universe as its creation attributes only worked under the laws of the universe. Genesis energy was just his project that was mixed of Soul energy and primal energy. The effects of Bleed, Slash, gravity, repel, and such intents can't be used in the higher world like the Chaosverse.

Of course, Normal mystic intents such as heavy, slash, bleed, etc., were not under the Mystic Law. They were just by-products of powerful people's thoughts on the effects of Elements. For instance, Wind can slash, so Slash is related to wind, Earth is heavy, so Heavy intent is associated with Earth, Bleed is related to blood element, Water is mild but also heavy, so heaviness is related to water too, Wind is lightness and can be soft too, so those mystic intents are related wind. Metal can be sharp and penetrative, so sharp and penetrate mystic intents are related to Metal, etc.

The Mystic Law mainly contained Gravity, Repel, Attract, and such sub powers.

Chaosverse was...chaotic, so even though the mystic intents of the universe like slash, heavy, sharp, etc., didn't work there, The chaosverse had far more unbelievable powers of the phenomenon there.

Athan was happy with the internal energy system he created to use his techniques using the law cores and white orb's power, but it remains to see how he will progress after ascending to the Chaosverse.

After Black and Fang stabilized and opened their eyes, Athan spoke, " Since you are done with your breakthrough, Then you can either stay here or come with me. "

Saying this, Athan started walking towards the leaders of five great races before telling them to lead the way.

They just nodded as they were quite fearful of Athan after his display of power and started leading the way.

The two mountains and the valley were all just self-created by the leaders after being stuck here for thousands of years. 

After moving for 100 kilometers in the valley, They finally saw a vast dark space filled with the debris of strange rocks and strange materials.

In this dark space, one thing was glaringly visible. It was a giant black whirlpool that was spinning with dark brown and black clouds.

But in the exact middle of this whirlpool was a dark gold rod that was crackling with brown lightning. The brown lightning seemed to have been produced from the dark gold rod.

Pointing at the dark gold rod, The leader of Branzol race spoke with a sigh, " That brown lightning producing from the dark gold rod is very dangerous. At first, only a small part of the dark gold rod was visible, and during the past thousands of years, we have slowly pulled it by combining our powers, but many lost their lives during the process because the brown lightning would sometimes flare up and directly kill one or two of us. And...We still don't know how long the dark gold rod truly is. "

Athan hasn't heard of the root problem from the Elenex but didn't expect that it was something like this, ' Elenex might be able to pull that...but why he didn't do it? '

Glancing at the leaders, Athan asked, " Can't Elenex try to pull it? "

" The creator said he can't pull it. Or rather, He is not allowed to pull it. "

Afterward, The leaders told him about how they pulled the rod until now.

Athan nodded after hearing the method as his activated one of his combat ability.

Inside his void region, Earth core, Water core, and space core shined, but this time, not briefly. They continued to shine along with the white threads connected to them before their law powers channeled towards the white pyramid surrounded by the nine cores in the middle.

The white pyramid shined before one of its sides turned dark pink.

[ A/N: the aurora glowing triangle changed into the white pyramid. I also edited this in the previous chapter. Also, Athan's combat method and how he uses his new abilities will be revealed after he ascends to the Chaoverse as there will be some changes of power due to suppression there, and it would be easier to explain at that time. ]
