The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 240: Getting out

Chapter 240: Getting out

Athan was currently looking at the region inside his body where his soul was staying. There was another thing in this region, and it was the mass of dark corrosive energy.

He could absorb the dark corrosive energy until he ran out of his soul energy, which means that his soul energy was used as the medium to bring that dark corrosive energy inside the region.

" This doesn't look like soul realm, energy realm, or genesis realm. Hmmm...I should name it something. "

Athan adopted a thoughtful expression, ' After my soul ate the clay, something happened, and I lost consciousness before seeing a strange dream which I can't remember. I'm sure that my soul and the peculiar power inside it created this flawless body by using clay that I ate, and this region inside me is also the result of the mutation between those two. '

He then observed this region, He couldn't see the end of this region, and it was all pitch black. In this pitch blackness, His soul shined bright due to the white border around it. The mass of dark energy was gathered a short distance away from his soul, and it was enough to fill a swimming pool.

" Alright. I'll name this region the Void region. " Athan nodded as he liked this name.

' Phew...Now let's get back to work. First, I have to control this corrosive dark energy, and for that, I need to study and comprehend it. I'm sure I can do it. ' Athan encouraged himself as he closed his eyes and started to study the corrosive dark energy which was staying tamely inside his void region.

He had comprehended a part of it when his soul energy came into contact with it, but it was just a part. He could not control it to with ease like his previous powers.

After a few hours of studying this corrosive dark energy, Athan opened his eyes frowned.

All of the dark corrosive energy inside his void region was gone when he finally managed to comprehend it fully. His soul absorbed every inch of it.

" Whatever, Since I comprehended it, Then...I can control it. " Muttering this, Athan waved his right hand as if he wanted to grasp the corrosive dark energy, and it worked.

Athan sighed a relief when he managed to control it and decided to gather it inside his void region.

But as soon as he let the corrosive dark energy inside his void region, It automatically went inside his soul as if some force was pulling it in.

Athan frowned, and after thinking about it for a few moments, He knew the cause for this phenomenon.

' Looks like my soul is automatically absorbing it since I comprehended this corrosive dark energy, but...I don't feel as if my soul got stronger or anything. '

He started to brainstorm about ways to store this energy.

' I have already comprehended this power of corrosive darkness so I can control its energy in this space, but I can't store it. Previously, I had primal energy, the source of all energy that could manifest the properties of powers that we comprehend, But...I currently don't have any Primal energy, nor do I have the energy realm to store it. '

Previously, He had the Unima core inside his energy realm, which contained the more powerful version of primal energy.

Primal energy is the source of all energy in this universe. In the basic sense, Once one comprehended any intents, rules, or laws like Fire, Water, Lightning, Wood, Metal, Sound, or even mixed and more powerful elements. They can manifest their powers at the cost of using the primal energy stored inside their core and also genesis energy, depending on what kind of spells they are gonna use.

" Looks like I am in a more dire situation than I thought. This place doesn't have pure primal energy, and it's just filled with this raw corrosive dark energy. In the end, I have to leave this space first. "

Athan waved his right hand and started gathering dark corrosive energy around his hand.

He gathered and condensed it into a form of a gauntlet. This way, When he throws the punch with his full power, His physical strength can also aid in breaking this space.

" More...I need to gather enough to make a big hole. " Muttering this, Athan gathered more energy and condensed it.

" Wait...this is a good idea. " He suddenly thought of an idea which would let him use this dark energy for some time even after coming out.

He started to gather even more energy and covered his whole body with it. Basically, He wanted to create a suite of corrosive dark energy.

After a while, He fully covered himself in a plain and cool armor that looked similar to the black dragon scale armor he created way back when he got the black crystal due to the Ark.

( The black whirlpool was just a gateway, and those crystals and other things that happened to him were due to the Ark. )

" Finally, It's time to leave this place. " Athan muttered and balled his right hand into a fist before punching out with his full power.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOM...CRARARARACK..*

A big hole formed in this space filled with corrosive dark energy, and without wasting any time, Athan dashed forward and entered through it.

" Crap..."

He appeared directly in the sky and started to fall since he couldn't actually fly.

*Thud...*

The ground cracked where he fell but he wasn't injured since his body was not as weak as described by Shiren.

Standing up, Athan saw a clear sky with mountains and greenery around and couldn't help himself anymore.

" I...AM...BACKKK! "

" Hey hey, Why are you shouting as if you've returned from hell? Wait...Wait...T-that... "

Athan turned around and saw a scared face of an Amarphy race man. He was confused as to why that Amarphy race man was frightened.

The Amarphy race man stuttered at the end, and without finishing, He directly ran away after Athan turned around.

" What the hell? Why was he scared? " Athan frowned and muttered. He thought about it for a moment and finally knew that reason.

' So it's because he sensed this corrosive dark energy armor. I think it's called darkness of doom officially since that voice in chambers of dooms kept sounding like that. '

Athan didn't care about it anymore and started searched around and found a giant tree and hid inside its hollow trunk.
