The Tale of the Void Emperor

"So this is the Thousand Deaths Valley?" Athan muttered as he looked at a large valley between a trail of green hills on both sides.

The entire valley had six-building structures made from wood. One was a large wood palace, while the other five were different large buildings.

"Athan, are we going to stay here for some time?" Lily asked.

"Yes," Athan nodded, "however, Elder Komin and I need to leave for a two-months long trip."

Mini pouted and said, "brother Athan! We only met, and you already want to leave? Why don't you take us with you?"

Athan wryly smiled and patted Mimi before saying, "sorry, but I can't take you there as it's a very dangerous place for you. However, I have a friend for you."

'Primo, you will stay with them until I return.'

Primo was startled but nodded, 'Nyaa! Fine, Master. I will stay with them and watch over them.'

As such, Primo came out from Athan's void region and sat down on Mimi's head before appearing in front of Mimi.

"Nyaa!"

"Ehh," Mimi was startled before she chuckled, "Who is this cat, brother Athan? It's so cute."

"You may call me Primo," Primo said with a grin.

Mimi caught Primo and started rubbing its smooth fur with her hands.

"Nyaa!" Primo was startled before he relaxed and closed his eyes, "Master. It might not be so bad to stay here, hehe."\

Lily, Huarin, and Dreevindo laughed. But on the other hand, Konish was startled, 'what the hell? This cat...it's exuding Supremacy-plane aura!'

He knew it was very hard to find beasts at Supremacy-plane and above and tame them because they have higher intelligence and can take humanoid form.

"Elder Komin, I hope you can make arrangements for them and provide them with all the necessary resources for their training until we return," Athan said as he looked at Komin with a faint smile, "don't worry, I will pay for all the expenses."

"Sigh....the power gap between us increased again," Lily sighed with a sad expression. She was very frustrated that she could be of no help to Athan.

Huarin patted Lily's shoulder as she could feel her frustration of Lily.

Athan smiled and suddenly arrived in front of her before hugging her, "don't worry about that. You should get strong at your own pace. Just...all of you must stay alive for me. Once I grasp this whole world in my palm, we can live leisure life."

"Brother Athan, hug me too," Mimi said with a pout.

After saying that, Mimi flew toward Athan and hugged him when Athan looked at her, "be sure to come back early and safe."

Athan patted Mimi's head and said with a smile, "I will."

"What about me, Lord Athan?" Dreevindo said as he also pouted.

"You...," Athan wryly smiled and kicked Dreevindo's ass.

"Ayooo," Dreevindo cried out in pain, "you are so unfair, Athan. This little dwarf also wants some love."

"Hahahaha."

Everyone laughed at Dreevindo's acting.

Afterward, Komin arranged a place for Lily and others and also told his two subordinates at Anarchy plane to properly help them train and get strong. 

"Master Komin, there's a Mythical-grade Labyrinth nearby, and since they are close to breaking into Mystic-plane, should I bring them there?" an Anarchy lord subordinate asked Komin.

Komin looked at Athan, and Athan looked at Lily and others, "what do you think?"

"we will go there," Lily nodded, "we benefitted a lot from a labyrinth previously, and after coming out of this Labyrinth, we will easily reach Mystic-plane."

"Don't forget to consolidate your body and soul after breaking through," Komin said as he caressed his beard.

Afterward, Komin and Athan left the Thousand Deaths Valley and started traveling in the northwest direction on Komin's flying ship.

"It will take a month to reach there, right?" Athan asked.

"Indeed," Komin nodded.

"Alright, then I am going to enter meditation. You can wake me up when we reach there," Athan said as he sat down crossed-legged in the hall of the flying ship.

"Fine."

Athan decided to truly imbue the Termos Titan principal in his technique to make them stronger from the get-go. 

Afterward, he actively focused on producing Abyssal Void Essence motes.

In the recent insight he got about Outrious Potency, he found out that he can turn Outrious Potency into Abyssal Darkness.

It was not even that complicated. He just needed to use his so-called profound talent, which was none other than his understanding of AVOF. 

Outrious Potency was a mystical force that was present everywhere and in everything. The Outrious Potency that Athan absorbed became his, and with his 60% of understanding in AVOF, he could turn Outrious Potency into either Abyssal darkness or Voidpulse BECAUSE he understood Abyssal darkness and Voidpulse.

Outrious Potency...a potential absorbed by one that can use that potential to produce energy of his outrious power. A power that one understands and is in one's grasp.

Voidpulse was an energy that could only be produced when Abyssal darkness devoured something. However, Athan could actually turn outrious potency motes into Voidpulse as well!

Athan could make the Outrious Potency he absorbed into voidpulse, but he could not turn his Voidpulse into Outrious Potency.

Days passed as Athan refined his techniques, body, and power structure as he produced more Abyssal Void Essence motes.

50,000 Outrious Potency motes could turn into 500k Abyssal darkness and 400k voidpulse. 

It was also easy to absorb Outrious Potency since it was everywhere. However, he found something strange. 

After emptying his 50,000 outrious potency motes the first time, he was not able to absorb the slightest bit of Outrious Potency from the atmosphere for 30 minutes. No Supremacy symbols were invoked during that time as well. All symbols disappeared.

Komin said that it was because Athan exhausted his Outrious existence potential, and to recover that potential, he needed to take a 30 min break.

Previously, Outrious Potency was always inside him, and he actively absorbed and used them, so the symbols were invoked. But once he used Outrious Potency and exhausted one round of it, he found this out.

"Athan, you have to be careful about this during a fight because even though Outrious Potency is everywhere, you can absorb it easily," Komin said with a smile.

"You absorbed Outrious Potency in meditation the first time, so you don't know, but you can't actually absorb Outrious Potency while fighting or running. You must enter meditation and absorb it with focus; only then will you be able to absorb Outrious Potency," Komin said.

"Got it," Athan said before he asked, "how many days till we reach our destination?"

"Ten more days," Komin said.

Athan nodded before he closed his eyes and entered meditation again.

...

Ten days passed soon as Komin arrived at the Underwater Gahen region.

It was a mystical region filled with water. Not many people have established here, but thousands of people live underwater in this region.

Naturally, no one below the Supremacy plane being was in this region; that's how dangerous it was.

Athan also opened his eyes without a reminder of Komin as he felt a high pressure in the atmosphere, and the ship shook greatly when Komin dived the ship inside the water.

Athan had already filled his Abyssal Void essence motes to brim 10,000.

'Master, when do we come out?' Taezin and Pixilote asked.

"You can come out now," Athan said with a smile.

"What?" Komin turned to Athan as he heard Athan's words.

At that moment, Taezin and Pixilote appeared outside as they floated beside Athan.

Komin's eyes popped out of his sockets when he saw two more Supremacy pets of Athan.

"What's going on?" Komin asked with a speechless expression, "I heard your girlfriend speaking and knew that it's not even been a year since you arrived in Outrious Expanse from a lower world. So, how can you have such powerful pets?"

"Humph, this is not our full power. An annoying lady suppressed our power. Otherwise, I could smash you out of existence with my fart," Taezin snorted and said to Komin.

Komin almost puked blood hearing that. Clearly, he felt that the monkey was spouting nonsense.

"What is this, Athan? You should disciple your pets," Komin said with a frown.

"Cough...actually, he is right," Athan coughed with a wry smile, "they are Fear-plane existence, but their power is suppressed right now."

"No way!" Komin was shocked before he thought of something and backed off with fear in his eyes, "do you have any connection with Nihility Council?"

Athan narrowed his eyes as he shook his head, "I don't know. Things are complicated with my situation. I was already able to wield my Outrious power, known as Abyssal Void of Fabrication when I was in the lower world."

"And we are creations of Master's influence on the source of that Outrious Power," Pixilote said.

"What do you know about Outrious Council?" Athan asked, "do you know the members of that council?" 

"I don't personally know any of them," Komin shook his head, "however...according to information, there are seven thrones in the Council. 6th Throne was filled several thousand years ago, and 7th Throne has been empty for since the creation of Nihility Council."

Athan waved his hand and created a picture of the woman he saw in his memories. The one who left a message for him and killed Tiana and others before taking their souls away.

"Have you seen her?" Athan asked.

"No," Komin shook his head, "I haven't seen any member of Nihility Council, so I don't know if she is one of them."

"Anyway, leave this matter aside since we have arrived at the only city in this region and a relatively safer place," Komin said.
