The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 554: Excited Dean

Chapter 554: Excited Dean

Three days quickly passed as everyone returned to Chaos Monolith Hills.

Athan first gave the voidling-zoids in Void Pavilion before Dean allowed all people to enter there as they started buying voidling-zoids.

Tiana and others helped sell the voidling-zoids with the Nimpere brothers, who have returned from purgatory much stronger as they had broken through to the Zen order realm. Well, that was their aim in the first place.

On the other hand, Athan went to Dean Lenix's Palace.

Zorgia and Dean Lenix were waiting for Athan, with Zorgia walking to and fro.

After a few moments, they heard the footsteps and saw Athan coming into the hall.

"Young master Athan!"

Athan was surprised to see Zorgia directly kneeling with one leg in front of him with his head down.

"Young master! I hereby swear a chaos oath that if I ever betray you or even possess any thoughts of harming you, my soul will be utterly destroyed!"

*Rumbl!!*

Athan was startled, 'No resistance? He even seems to be excited about it...what the hell?'

He looked at Dean Lenix, who instantly told him about thoughts of Zorgia through sound transmissions.

Hearing about that, Athan laughed out loud and said, "Hahaha, how very clever, Zorgia. Stand up."

Zorgia stood up with a respectful expression and looked at Athan with a serious face, "Your words are my absolute command, young master Athan. If you want me to do anything, I will do it with all my efforts."

Athan looked at him as his gaze turned cold and said, "If boss Yone really died true death there, I wouldn't have spared you. But you can be considered fortunate that his soul was not destroyed."

Zorgia trembled as he kneeled once again and said, "This fool kno-"

"Shut up!"

Zorgia shut his mouth and remained silent while Athan walked towards Dean Lenix, who wryly looked at everything happening, 'That's an Evagon-realm powerhouse at the same level as me...'

"Athan, even if the soul was hurt or destroyed, its soul force would still return to the order cycle of Chaosverse unless someone purposefully contained the force of that destroyed soul and used it for something," Dean Lenix said with a smile as he decided to share some things he knew about lower-Chaosverse to Athan.

"Oh?...," Athan was slightly surprised hearing that.

Dean Lenix nodded before he continued, "Naturally, a destroyed soul will have lower talent, weak comprehension when it's reborn compared to a successfully departed soul. However, if someone purposefully contained the departing force of that destroyed or intact soul and used or consumed it for some purpose, then that would be true death."

Sitting on the couch, Dean Lenix took a sip from the teacup as he continued, "Anyway, all deaths are considered deaths because you can't find the dead person who has reborn through the cycle order since that soul would have been washed completely new with no previous life memories, "Dean Lenix smiled as he looked at Athan-,"Unless one used some mystical soul order techniques to keep previous life memories."

"I see...," Athan nodded as he sat down on the couch in front of Dean Lenix before saying with a smile, "Dean Lenix, how much do you trust me? Do you trust me enough to open up your soul to me without any resistance to whatever I do?"

Dean Lenix put the teacup down before he laughed loudly, "Void Emperor himself told me such thing, how can I refuse? Athan, I trust you because I know that the horizons you see are far vaster than ours, and we are just ants in them. That's the feeling I got when I saw Void Emperor."

He then completely opened his defense and said with a grin, "I suspect that what you are going to do is related to the surprise gift you mentioned, hahaha. Go ahead and do your thing."

Athan smiled as he nodded and started the process while telling him about the Touch of Transcendent and Seed of Transcendence.

After two minutes, Dean Lenix had shock written over all of his faces, "T-this...My soul is rising. How?..."

He could feel that various things related to his soul were strengthening as the seed released Athan's soul energy. His soul was going through fundamental changes slowly, 'T-this...It feels like I am becoming a higher existence...but I didn't break through to CHaos King-realm yet. Wait... these fundamental changes are different...I am actually fading as a chaotic being. Is this what Athan meant by transcendency? W-what is going on?'

Seeing Dean Lenix's expression, Athan smiled and said, "I haven't told others about what will happen once your soul is fully transcendent with my soul energy, but I'll tell you since you can make use of that knowledge to create a clever situation in the future when I reveal my grand plan to you after going to upper-Chaosverse."

"Prey tell what is that because...I am dying to know that!" Dean Lenix spoke with slight excitement.

Athan nodded before he said with a faint smile, "Once the transcendent process is completed, you will detach from Chaosverse. It means that if you die, you won't be going through the order cycle of Chaosverse. However..."

"However, what?!" Dean Lenix's heart was beating fast as he hurridly asked.

Athan grinned and continued, "However, you will become a being related to my power, Abyssal Void of Fabrication. That means that...if you die, your soul will animate to my void region and...I can resurrect you.'

Internally, Athan thought, 'At least, that will be the case as long as we are in Chaosverse. After all, I don't know if there are powers in higher worlds that can stop your soul from animating in my void region or even completely destroy your soul.'

On the other hand, Dean Lenix's eyes were wide, and his jaw had dropped to the ground.

He was already dumbfounded because of how his soul was becoming powerful, which would also help him breakthrough. But hearing about this absurd effect of transcending his soul, he was shocked beyond belief.

Snapping out of his Athan, he looked at Athan solemnly and thanked him before saying, "Athan, I don't know how to repay this gratitude, but for now, I will go in meditation since whatever you did is helping me breakthrough and I will have to put some effort to hold back this breakthrough because if I enter Chaos King-realm right now, I will have to return to upper-Choasverse immediately."

Right after saying that, he disappeared with little space fluctuations. He had stayed in the peak of Evagon-realm for far too long and what Athan did directly helped him breakthrough.

Zorgia was hearing everything, and he was crying tears of joy because he managed to become a servant of such a mysterious person.

'He will use transcendent thing on me too, right? Or maybe I will have to show my usefulness first? Right, I have already sworn oath, so he should reward me with that sooner or later as long as I work hard.'

Athan walked towards Zorgia and told him to stand up before saying, "Follow me."

"As you wish, master Athan,"

...

Athan then return to Void Pavilion and arrived in front of Efyeed. Others were still managing the sale of Voidling-zoids and before they finished that work, He decided to upgrade Efyeed as well by consulting with Primo to see if the idea he thought of will work or not.
