The Tale of the Void Emperor

Tiana, Avelia, Sen, and others watched Athan, who was leisurely enduring those chaotic attacks with a peaceful expression. They couldn't see what was happening inside Athan's body. Still, they knew that this process would wreak havoc inside their body even more and would cause hellish pain and suffering.

Right now, Athan had a slick, dark-golden demonic-looking armor with red and purple patterns. It looked devilishly slick and majestic both. There was a cloak around him as well, and this combination made him look badass, especially with his fluttering light grey shoulder-length hair and his divine carved face with those two mysterious symbolic eyes.

"Mhmm, he has succeeded. His breakthrough is almost over," Zorgia said with a nod.

Zorgia is someone who has trained in both the Essence order path and Body order path. 

Actually, most of the people stuck at the peak of Evagon-realm would start training in body order ken and reach the peak of Atmospheric Body realm as well. After reaching the peak of Evagon-realm using Essence order ken path, it's more easy to create Body order Evagon-domain with almost no chance of failing as long as one is willing to endure the hellish pain.

Tiana and others looked at each other with determination as they seemed to have made up their mind.

Although Athan broke through using this risky method, which is not really risky for him but a walk in the path, he didn't force others to do the same as him.

He told them that they could breakthrough using any method they wished.

However, seeing Athan breaking through with the 2nd method, they all decided to do the same.

Naturally, none of them had a chance of failing as long as they were willing to feel the pain they had never felt before.

"I am going with the same route as Emperor! Period," Arcued shouted with determination.

"Alright, then let's start now!" Sen said as she flew away and started her breakthrough.

However, Tiana stopped others and said, "do it in two batches. Sister Drizzly, Sen, Avelia, Shiromi, Tealery, and I will break through first. Afterward, you six can start your breakthrough."

Theo and others nodded as they decided to go with Tiana's plan.

...

Athan finished his breakthrough soon and saw that others also started the second method breakthrough.

"Good," Athan nodded with a smile.

"Well, how can they back away after seeing you?" Lady Fu said with a smile.

"Hehe, we are finally going to upper-chaosverse very soon," Theo said with some excitement, "I wonder if I will be able to find my ancestor there?"

"Become strong and spread your name far and wide; this way, you can find your ancestor easily," Athan said with a grin.

"Hahaha, that's right," Theo laughed out loud as he understood.

"Emperor, I heard you have some kind of plan once we ascend to upper-chaosverse?" Arcued asked with curiosity.

"Eh, it's not that much of a plan but a decision," Athan said with a faint smile, "we are going to have some trouble up there, and our journey won't be smooth sailing. However, only with such difficulty can we progress faster and get better."

"Oh, big brother told us about making our own organization up there, is it related to that?" the eldest brother of the Nimpere brothers asked.

"Exactly, we will have to get resources on our own because it's our organization. It's unavoidable that we wreak some havoc there and make enemies," Athan said, "the world structure of upper-chaosverse is quite different than here."

"How is it? Since big brother went there, you must have found about it," the second brother asked.

"I got some rough information. Our first target is to find an island bubble. Those islands there are as big as an entire region here. They are called islands because all of them are inside a chaotic bubble, and they float in the space of chaosverse. They look small from the outside, only a couple of kilometers in size.  However, once we go through that bubble, a vaster chaotic world comes into sight," Athan said.

"What's the importance of those islands? Since you mentioned them, they ought to be important...I guess," Theo asked.

Athan nodded with a faint smile before saying, "there are more things than just islands there, but these islands are going to be our first priority. We have to find an island bubble, enter inside, conquer it completely and build our base there. These island bubbles are roaming all the time, but once we conquer it and control its core, we can use it as our mobile base."

"Do they contain valuable resources?" Arcued asked.

"Yep, all those islands are filled with resources that we can sell or use. There are large trading posts everywhere, and it's some sort of hub where all beings, either lone wolves or from organizations, interact with each other," Athan said, "I haven't seen a trading post yet. Still, they are sure to be impressive from what I heard."

Shaking his head, Athan continued, "anyway, these islands are most accessible among other myriad things there for starters like us to get resources and progress. Naturally, even though they are most accessible, It's not going to be easy to conquer those islands."

Athan had told Linci's mother about his route, and in response, she said to him that he should start with those islands if he wanted to make his own organization.

"How developed it is? I mean, Is upper-chaosverse more advanced than lower-chaosverses? For instance, the Great Bridgade Palace here has access to the entire Midgard continent, and they can go anywhere they wish and also provide such facility to others," Theo asked with curiosity.

Athan wryly smiled and nodded, "I only took some glimpse, but...upper-chaosverse is way more advanced. Like...way more."

"I can't wait to go there! Damn," Arcued pumped his fist in excitement before he turned to the left side, "let's go, let's go, it's time for us to start our breakthrough."

Others also nodded as they saw Tiana and others returning after a successful breakthrough. They had suffered injuries and pain, but right now, they looked perfectly fine and with an even more powerful aura exuding from them.

After Arcued, Theo, and four Nimpere brothers left, Athan said to Tiana and others, "we have formed body order Evagon-domain only. So now it's time to form the Essence order domain as well.. Afterward, we will ascend to upper-chaosverse."
