The Tale of the Void Emperor

Currently, Athan's soul gave off a blinding white glow, and his ( soul's ) eyes were closed.

His body was still destroyed, and their cellular parts were spread inside the barrier created by Elenex.

Elenex was fascinated seeing Athan's soul, and his eyes were filled with curiosity, " What will happen now? It seems like he managed to get into some sort of epiphany and is understanding the white power. "

Several days passed as Elenex continued to watch Athan, who didn't display anything different. Athan ( his dark soul ) was still giving off a white glow with his eyes closed.

....

Time passed as Athan tried to understand the white power. According to him, He only understood 1% power of nothingness and 0.1% of the white power. He need to at least get a 1% understanding of this white power which seemed to be deeply related to the power of nothingness in a highly complex way.

Six months passed, but Athan's situation didn't change. He was still trying to grasp the white power.

Despite this, Elenex wasn't getting bored and kept looking at Athan and observed him. Six months or six years is the same to him, who is alive for a few eons.

Unfortunately, He couldn't see what was going on within Athan. It was simply outside of his scope. But that didn't stop his curiosity.

Seventh month...

Eighth month...

Finally...A whole year passed before some changes happen.

The white glow around him subsided, and instead, his dead body cells that were spread inside the barrier started to glow in white light.

They slowly gathered together around his soul as his body started to form.

After half an hour, His body recovered to how it was before, and his soul also entered the Void region. But there were some changes in his soul and body.

The white border around his soul appeared thicker, and there were more of the so-called indistinct white organs inside his soul.

His body stopped glowing white, and Athan finally opened his eyes which were different from before.

The mysterious black and white snake-like patterns moved inside his eyes for a quick second before they returned to normal.

" Magnificent! hahaha. " Elenex laughed and removed the barrier around Athan after he saw Athan opening his eyes.

" So? Did you find a proper way to strengthen your body? "

Athan smiled and nodded as he started the previous process once more. He connected with the source dimension to absorb the primal essence before turning it into wind law energy with his wind law. After that, He started to feed the wind law energy to his white orb.

Strong currents of winds surrounded Athan as he involuntarily floated while still keeping the crossed-legged position.

The white orb started to provide wind law energy to every corner of Athan's body and all of his cells.

Unlike before, The white orb didn't go berserk, and everything was under Athan's control.

Elenex could at least feel that Athan's body was getting stronger due to Athan's body aura overflowing.

When Athan sensed that He fully saturated all of his cells and every part of his body, He started the main process.

*Shuaaaaa.....*

Elenex, watching from outside, appeared a bit shocked as he saw Athan's body slowly turning transparent. But after he closely sensed what was going on with Athan, He understood and appeared even more impressed, " That...is the fundamental transformation. He is transforming all parts and cells of his body into the wind. "

" But...If he does that, Will he be able to strengthen his body with other elements and fully display the power of different laws when he comprehends them? " Elenex was a bit doubtful about this, but he could only wait and watch.

After an hour, Athan entirely turned transparent as he turned into wind law energy. His body became an energy body of wind law energy.

After finishing this transformation with the white orb, Athan returned to his normal form and grinned at Elenex, " Alright. I have found a way to strengthen my body. I can also defend and attack myself with the new way of combat that I think will work. "

Elenex laughed and waved his right hand as a powerful gust of wind suddenly descended upon Athan.

*Screeeeeeeeeee...*

Athan looked up and saw a monster bird with a white and green feather body with exquisite patterns. It also exuded wind law from every inch of its body.

" Let's see how you fare against this beast. "  Elenex grinned, and right after he finished speaking, The beast targetted Athan.

Athan laughed heartily because he also wanted to know if He can use the combat he developed in the actual fight.

From his back grew a transparent pair of wings with a green hue on them before he launched himself in the air at a fast speed against the flying beast.

*Crashhh...*

But he came crashing down even faster.

" Cough...Cough...Puchiii..." Athan coughed and spurted a mouthful of blood before he looked at Elenex with a glare, " Hey Elenex! What the hell? Are you sure that flying bird only has wind power and not metal? "

Hearing that, Elenex grinned, " Hahaha, Use your so-called new combat way and don't pit your body against this beast. I made it such that only energy can damage this beast. "

Athan cleaned himself with a gust of wind before looking at Elenex with a speechless expression, " You gotta tell something like that first. "

He then looked at the beast flying in the sky. The beast was also glancing at Athan as if provoking him.

Athan glanced at Elenex, " Energy, right? "

" Mhmm..." Elenex nodded playfully.

Inside Athan's void region, There was an additional thing; A transparent core that was giving off a green hue. This core came into existence when he activated the power of the white orb in tandem with his wind law power. He could finally use the power of the white orb just like his black orb.

This wind law core was connected to his physical body and also became the source of his wind law power.

He fed primal essence to this wind law core as his body suddenly gave off an immense wind pressure.
