The Tale of the Void Emperor

"Cough...let's not associate ourselves with your brother Athan right now," the girl spoke. She was Yokan's sister and had similar devilish features as him.

Yokan wryly smiled and nodded, "Indeed. If people found out, we will die even before meeting brother Athan."

"Anyway, I can sense the general direction of brother Athan with that token I gave him, so let's move," Yokan said.

...

Athan had indeed taken out the token and put it inside his pocket; he had also removed his void field completely so that Yokan could sense the token. Naturally, people also started to sense his body strength after that. He could prevent this using his void robe's effect, but he didn't do that.

His reputation right now was notorious, and since he deliberately let some people go, the news about him had spread far and wide.

After all, he had killed a lot of powerful Nona-grade beasts filled that were in the early stage. Nona-grade was equivalent to Legendary.

Athan basically went on a killing spree as he targetted only giant beasts and powerful resource treasures filled with vitality to satiate the hunger of his body.

His physical body strength had already entered into the legendary realm, and if measured roughly, his physical body's strength was in the Star-Shred level according to the measurement level of Orchos Firmament.

Star-Shred physical strength is only obtainable by Legendary powerhouses. There are four more physical body strength measurement levels above that.

With his current powerful body and its intense physical power in his blood, the Abyssal Blood Crystals he produced were also better than previous ones.

Currently, he possed 231 old Abyssal Blood Crystals and 15 new Abyssal Blood Crystals. He was only using old Abyssal Blood Crystals for now.

He also finally knew that the gaps between legendaries were big and more profound.

Their use of power was very bizarre as everyone had their own way of using their genealogy path's power.

It turned out that the weapons they had were created using their own relics and catalyst accumulation. A legendary weapon that could only be made by a Legendary powerhouse. But this was only possible for those who had reached the 3rd Patch of the legendary path.

1st Patch

2nd Patch

3rd Patch

Then comes Legendary Ascension, Legendary Call, and Everlasting Legend.

That lady that Lily, Huarin, Mimi, and Dreevindo met and saw those giant figures were actually Everlasting Legendary powerhouses.

...

The current Athan's physical body's strength was already in a league of Legendaries, and today, he was going to kill the first legendary powerhouse and devour the first legendary soul.

This person was a 1st patch legendary powerhouse and seemed to be from a prestigious, powerful clan from how he backed out two legendary powerhouses just by stating his background.

Inside an island, Athan approached this man.

The man sensed Athan and turned around, saying boringly, "scram."

After saying that, he continued walking towards the purple-red bubbling pond with a purple-red glowing stone in the middle.

That pond was exuding extraordinary vitality from it and also profound insights into power. Bathing in this pond and absorbing its energy would make legendary powerhouses stronger and make more progress in their genealogy path.

"What if I don't scram?" Athan said with a grin, showing his white teeth, "come on, I don't want to end this boringly, so do your best to survive."

The man once again turned around as he narrowed his eyes, "Haven't you heard of Grand Archdues Empire? You can't do anything me even if you are more powerful than me."

"Grand Archdues Empire?" Athan raised his eyebrows, "never heard of it. And I don't care even if that empire is the most powerful one in this entire Orchos Firmament. Today you are going to die unless you manage to escape from me."

After saying that, Athan consumed 49 Abyssal Blood Crystals and activated all three of his Void frames so that he could switch between them or one part of his body whenever he wanted.

In the past days, he had already expended the energy of 50 Abyssal Blood Crystals from his body while continuing to satiate his body's hunger.

Today he was finally done and decided to devour a soul.

Athan's hair became more extended as they reached his knees from behind, his body bulky, and two devilish horns that were more devilish than any devil produced from his forehead.

This was the complete form of the Zontheos Prime void frame.

"It looks like you will not believe it unless you see it yourself," the man shook his head before smiling sickly, "after you die, I will play with your family, especially women, as it's my favorite thing to do to people who dare defy me."

"Congratulations! You have prevented your death by saying that, "Athan's eyes flashed a black and white light as he punched forward with his 2nd Void Art's technique, Oblivion Fist of Wisps.

"But something worse is in store for you now."

A giant black fist with grey and red patterns shot towards the man.

Seeing it, the man clicked his tongue and adopted a serious expression as he extended his arms forward and produced a mystic spinning umbrella that was the same size as the giant hundred meters big punch coming towards him.

However, the punched obliterated the spinning silver-black umbrella easily as a somber expression appeared on the man's face.

The space literally trembled upon impact as the power of Oblivion Fist of Wisps was projected in that clash.

"So what if you broke my most powerful defense, Nineveh Umbrella of Godstone? hahaha," the man laughed as he simply stood while crossing his arms, "you still can't do anything to me!"

Right before the fist arrived in ten meters range of that man, a powerful aura shot out from his body, and a giant white-gold palm appeared to block the punch.

That power clearly didn't belong to the man.

"You can't do anyt-"

The man paused as the golden palm started to break down along with the Oblivion Fist of Wisp.

However, after the fist broke down, it turned into ten terrifying wisps with a beastly mouth as they shot towards the man.

Athan was going to stop the attack because he didn't want to kill the man that easily after hearing his threat but didn't disperse the attack after he saw that the man had something more up his sleeve.

"What! IMPOSSIBLE!" the man shouted at the top of his lunges, "FATHER!"

Another golden brilliance shot out from the man as a divine tornado formed that clashed with those wisps and both of them destroyed each other.

The energy of those wisps was used up to clash against that tornado.

At this moment, that man heard a voice full of seriousness in his head from his father, 'idiot! Who did you mess with? Run using Dimension Jump Stone, FAST. The talisman's energy is almost gone and if your enemy released one more such attack, you will die!
