The Tale of the Void Emperor

"Something is strange…it's been six days, but the tornado is still here."

"According to the previous appearances of this phenomenon, it would simply disappear in a second within three to five days. Hmmm, do you think this extension is related to that person?"

Those Everlasting Legendary powerhouses were surprised at this.

Reventas's eyes had strange patterns forming in them as she tried to see something. After a minute, she spoke, "this Unbound Vitality Spectrum Gale…it's shrinking slowly."

"huh?"

"It's shrinking?"

"Usually, this whole several thousand of kilometers big tornado would simply disappear in a second when it's time, but now it's shrinking…," Nukkil spoke as he glanced at Deadsea Union master with a smile before continuing, "I feel like this is related to Athan."

"The only thing that changed this time was Athan going inside while none of the powerhouses on our level did that before. Even if they did go inside, they came outside as soon as possible," Reventas said with a faint smile.

"Well, he might have died inside and triggered something before dying," the Deadsea union master spoke with a snort.

"Well, we can only stay here to find that out," said Asura Tobi, the master of Asura Mansion. Looking at Reventas, he said with a smile, "since the tornado is shrinking as you said, then when it shrinks completely, we will know what is going on."

Everyone nodded.

"From my estimation, it will take six to seven months for the tornado to shrink to five meters with its current shrinking speed completely," Reventas said as she calculated the time frame.

…

Time passed as Athan was lost in training his body and soul with all the resources he had gathered.

Athan didn't need to use his abyssal darkness and void pulse for any other purpose than letting Void Crux consume them to produce Abyssal Blood Crystal. Same with soul energy, and while his vitality was consumed rapidly by void crux as well to produce abyssal blood crystal, it was recovering through the resources that Athan had gathered, and the Unbound Vitality Spectrum Heart was also helping with that.

…

Time passed as hours turned into days and days into months…

Six months later, everyone indeed saw something strange.

They saw Athan sitting crossed-legged amidst the small tornado of vitality whirling around him.

Seeing that, everyone looked at each other with a shocked expression.

"Indeed, he was the cause of this anomaly," Nukkil said with a laugh.

"His physical aura…It's almost on par with mine," said the Asura Tobi with narrowed eyes as a hit of surprise flashed across his eyes, "however, I don't sense any profound genealogy in his physical body aura, but it's just pure physical strength."

Currently, there was no void field around Athan because it was deactivated.

However, Athan soon snapped out of his deep meditation and re-activated the void field around him.

Right after that, everyone was unable to sense his aura.

"It looks like he is aware of us and used some ability to mask his aura, heh. What guts he has to sit like that without any defenses around him," the Deadsea Union master spoke with a sneer.

"What? You want to attack him?" Reventas said with raised eyebrows.

There were currently twenty-nine Everlasting Legendary powerhouses here. Some more arrived later on the same day when the giant tornado appeared and after Athan entered inside the tornado.

Out of those twenty-nine Everlasting Legendary powerhouses, twenty-five of them had both greed and curiosity in their eyes.

The four people who were simply curious were Reventas, Nukkil, Yaokin of the Storm Axalt, and another lady powerhouse called Yieny, who had known Reventas for a long time.

When Reventas asked Deadsea Union master the question of whether he was going to attack Athan, the Deadsea Union master smiled and shook his head, "nope, I will not attack him."

However, the next second, those twenty-five powerhouses burst out with their power, their target obviously Athan.

"I will not, but…we will," the Deadsea union master spoke with a grin as he had already spoken to twenty-five of them who were not close with Reventas and others.

They were all curious and greedy about how Athan managed to stay inside that tornado and what did he get in the end.

Because they all knew that this tornado was something about the legendary realm.

"Stop!" Reventas shouted with panic, and she used her power to make a shield in front of Athan, but it was broken in an instant.

Nukkill frowned and shook his head but didn't bother to block because his defensive abilities can't block the power of those twenty-five powerhouses, 'however…if this Athan is as mysterious as Reventas described, then…he should be able to survive this bombardment filled with various legendary powers."

Alas…

Athan felt intense crisis as he shot open his eyes and saw a world of offensive powers hurling towards him of all kinds.

Soul attacks, curse attacks, mystical powers ignoring physical defense, pure offensive attacks trembling the space itself.

'I was just waiting for a perfect opportunity to finally activate that…' Thought Athan as madness filled his eyes before a wide grin stretched across his face, "Fuckers! You are all going to die!"

Right after he finished speaking, all attacks hit him, blanketing the several hundred meters into a field of destruction.

Space bent and trembled; nobody could see anything past that chaos…except for Reventas.

"Whatever he got, it will not be destroyed by our attacks even if he dies since it's obviously above legendary. I think it should be a powerful treasure from Outrious Expanse."

These Everlasting Legendaries obviously knew about Outrious Expanse, where all those who become Absolute Transcendence Mythos go.

"Indeed. As you all know, I am from a hidden clan, and we have some information regarding this tornado. It's built from a source power of something from Outrious Expanse. That's why even we, the Everlasting Legendaries, can't survive inside for much longer."

Asura Tobi's eyes glowed as he spoke, "I have gone inside a few times before, and I always felt a will of something in there. I think that Athan might have gotten the approval of that treasure or whatever."

"Same. This Athan really lucked out in that case since he obviously got approval. But I doubt he can survive all of our concentrated attacks."

"Yep."

However…

"ℍ𝕒𝕙𝕒…𝕙𝕒𝕙𝕒𝕙𝕒…."
