The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 684 - Shocked Dreevindo, Orchos Firmament 1

"What?" Dreevindo arrived beside Athan and asked.

"It's a waste of time for me to slowly walk like this. So, I am going ahead at the top and will absorb this energy since the higher we walk, the better this energy is becoming," Athan said before asking with narrowed eyes, "there's no problem with that, right?"

"Eh…of course not, but...anyway," Dreevindo said with a smile, "come on. I'll be waiting for you there."

After saying that, Dreevindo disappeared while thinking, 'might as well go into Orchos Firmament with Athan since he is not in an ascension process like others.'

On the other hand, Athan also exuded a pair of wings from his back as he flew towards the top with full speed.

*swooooooosh….*

All other candidates were speechless seeing Athan directly flying at the top.

"Damn… doesn't want to he properly finish the transformation and ascension process?"

"Who cares. Hehe, I hope he doesn't become powerful so that we can have a chance against him in the upcoming fights in the Orchos Firmament."

Everyone felt that they would get stronger once their ascension to the Orchos Firmament was completed, and since Athan was not doing it, they were bearing hopes of defeating him.

Naturally, some Chaos Supremes felt that Athan was original a being from Orchos Firmament and could somehow use his full power here, unlike Orchos Celestials. That is why Athan was so powerful.

However, some also knew that Athan actually ascended here from lower-chaosverse and that he was simply too much of a strange existence.

"Ignorance is bliss," Huarin said while shaking her head as she heard those people.

Lily and Huarin knew the terror of current Athan. They had seen Athan practicing a few times to test his strength and were shocked at the prowess displayed by him.

"Hehe, I can't wait to see Athan's full power in the Orchos Firmament," Lily said with anticipation.

…

After Athan reached the top, he saw a golden membrane blocking the path, and he also couldn't see anything beyond it.

Dreevindo smiled and said, "you are a strange being, and it seems that you won't have any transformation or whatever. Hahaha, in that case, let's just enter the Orchos Firmament."

"Wait," Athan said as he decided to deactivate his void robe and let the orchos energy enter into his body, "I want to see what this energy does to my body."

"Hahaha, if you want to absorb the orchos energy, then let's just enter Orchos Firmament. You are clearly a higher existence being, so you don't have to slowly adapt like those chaos supremes.

"You also don't have any chaotic or order power inside you, so it's useless to stay here for the transformation process," said Dreevindo as he entered inside the golden membrane.

Athan raised his eyebrows but then also flew upward slowly as his head touched the golden membrane. However, he didn't feel any resistance or whatever. He just felt a bit warm.

He then fully went through the golden membrane before appearing in an extremely beautiful natural land.

Athan flew up and looked below to see a golden lake filled with shiny water.

In the surroundings were jungle and a bit far were mountains. The atmosphere of this place blew Athan's mind a bit because it was just too…energetic, powerful, and also calming.

The atmosphere filled with a strange power. Athan inhaled once, and his entire body felt energetic like never before. His blood churned with energy, his mind felt clearer, and his soul felt refreshed.

"Hahaha, feels good, right?" Dreevindo said with a laugh, "this is the real world!"

Dreevindo and Athan then landed on the ground after flying out of the lake.

"Try punching in the atmosphere with your full power," Dreevindo asked with a smile, "you could break the space of Chaosverse with your physical power, but you won't be able to do that here."

Athan was interested to check this world's spacetime structure as well, so he consumed one Abyssal Blood Crystal and powered up his body.

'I might as well try a small part of my 3rd Void Art since I am punching,' Athan thought as the power of Abyssal Blood Crystal coursed throughout his body by the tiny tendrils. He then took a simple punching stance with his right hand.

"Why don't you try taking his attack of mine?" Athan asked with a smile, "it would be more interesting that way."

For a brief moment of less than a second, his right hand showed countless tendrils passing through it before Athan punched ahead.

A dark red fist projection sparkling with a black wisp released from his punch.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOM….*

"I call this fist...Oblivion Fist of Wisps," Athan said with a grin, "try blocking it."

Dreevindo saw the fist flying towards him, and his expression changed into one that of a shock seeing how the space trembled with Athan's attack, 'what the fuck!! Why is his physical prowess so off the charts?'

'However, my avatar can use its full power here,' Dreevindo thought before he grinned and pointed his palm towards the incoming attack of Athan.

Dreevindo's palm glowed intensely with emerald and brown light as a large torrent of sticky liquid manifested from Dreevindo's palm in the form of a beastly head that looked similar to boar.

The boar's mouth was wide open as it devoured Athan's dark red fist that sparkling with black wisps.

"Hehe, not ba-"

Dreevindo paused as his expression turned to that of a shock.

*BOOOOOOOM....*

The sticky glowing boar was destroyed, but the thing that came out of its mouth was not the same dark red fist but ten dark red wisps with a scary-looking mouth on them.

Dreevindo crossed his arm as his body glowed intensely. A faint barrier with emerald hue appeared around him with eccentric emerald patterns.

*criii...criiii...*

Those wisps with scary-looking mouths bared their black teeth on the barrier and started eating it.

Athan watched this with a faint smile on his face, '25% AVOF should give trouble to Dreevindo even though I don't know his extent of strength.'
