The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 731 - Deaths Spread

Corporeal Execution.

Seeing the giant palm appearing in front of him, Gokez revealed despair before his body literally disappeared, leaving only his soul in chains.

Athan made a pulling motion for the sake of it as the soul also disappeared.

The surrounding people who were watching this battle from far away had a chill run down their spine.

Outside this Vitality Spectrum Zone, colorful clouds raged everywhere with two distinct powers on them.

Those powers looked similar to the power possessed by Froech and Gokez.

Seeing that phenomenon, all people outside knew that two legendary powerhouses had died.

"It looks like there will be a major conflict between two powers."

"I know those symbols, and they belonged to Gokez and Froech from Deadsea Union. "

"I wonder who killed them? Yesterday, a 3rd patch legendary powerhouse from Mara Empire died as well. According to the sources, he was killed by Nukkil the Feral."

"Well, Mara Empire can't do anything to Nukkil, so that's insignificant. However, what about those two from Deadsea Union? The leader of Deadsea union is an Everlasting Legendary powerhouse like Nukkil."

"We'll hear about the person who killed those two soon as the news travels fast."

...

Athan arrived at Yokan and others before removing the sanctuary of the void around them.

In the previous fight, he used a total of 36 old Abyssal Blood Crystals.

"Where do we go now? I mean, since you can kill legendary powerhouses, and is not afraid of consequences, then let's go deeper where most of the legendary powerhouses of 2nd patch and further go," Yokan said before thinking for a bit.

"Well, then. Let's go there," Athan said with a smile, "I also need more powerful vitality to increase the amount of my power energy source."

"Power energy source?"

"Just like you have genome energy and orchos energy as your power source, I have my own unique power source. Now let's go. I still want to gather some more souls of Legendary powerhouses before devouring them and start training."

Hearing that, Yokan, Yekin, and Zonis looked at each other before looking at Athan's back with dread.

'Damn, brother. Does he train by devouring souls? How is that possible?' Yekin sent her thoughts to Yokan.

'Cough... I also didn't know that he could devour souls to train,' Yokan said with a wry smile before shaking his head.

'Usually, it's impossible to progress by devouring another person's soul since the understanding of both souls would clash, and instead, the person who devoured the soul might get into trouble of identity crisis and gaining traits of the person's soul he devoured. It would make one insane,' Zonis said.

'Indeed. Maybe he has some kind of ability to prevent something like that from happening?' Yokan wondered before he shrugged, 'anyway, let's start moving. We can get resources by staying with brother Athan.'

'Hehe, indeed. It's like coming out to train with father. But he is more powerful than our father,' Yekin said with a grin.

...

In the next fifteen days, Yokan, Yekin, and Zonis watched something that they've only heard but never seen before in their life.

It was a slaughter.

Many people arrived to kill Athan, including 3rd patch legendary powerhouses, but Athan killed them all.

A total of 7 legendary powerhouses died in the span of fifteen days. In which, there were two 3rd patch legendary powerhouses.

He also visited many islands and took Disaster and even legendary grade resources.

New enemies were made as well, and Athan let some of them go so they could come back for revenge.

The people of the Devil realm were shocked at many deaths of Legendary powerhouses.

Such an event where Legendary powerhouses are dying every few days is very rare.

This news also spread to all Lerentos of Orchos Firmament and caused an uproar as everyone talked about it.

However, the news about Athan killing them hadn't reached that far. It only spread in Vitality Spectrum Zone and some places in the Devil Realm.

However, his appearance was slowly spreading as well. But one thing that stumped people was that there was only one Athan but three kinds of appearances.

Since Athan would fight in different void frames to further improve his skills and body structure, he would use all of his void frames in every fight, so there was more than one appearance of the person named "Athan" spreading in the Devil Realm.

Athan's body had also increased. It was now above Star-shred physical strength and reached Destro-physical strength. Destro-physical strength is usually achieved by the powerhouses who are at the peak of the 3rd patch Legendary stage.

However, that level of physical strength was not just physical strength for Athan. After all, his power energy source was Abyssal Blood Crystals, and they contained unique energy that was a mix of abyssal darkness, his physical power, soul energy, and void pulse.

He had yet to use even single new Abyssal Blood Crystals that contained his enhanced physical power and soul power. He was simply producing them, and when his body got stronger again, he decided to strengthen those crystals again so they would constantly remain at the peak state.

His abyssal darkness, voidpulse, soul energy, and physical strength were consumed every second in the production of Abyssal Blood Crystals, while he only used energies from old Abyssal Blood crystals in his fights.

Well, that ended today.

"From now on, we will stay low for a while," Athan said as he looked at Yokan, Yekin, and Zonis.

All of them had jubilant faces because they had benefitted tremendously by staying with Athan. The treasures from those dead powerhouses belonged to them, and those weaker resources of Vitality at Disaster-grade and below were no use of Athan, so they were free to take them as well.

They have also arrived very deeper into the Vitality Spectrum Zone and started to encounter more 3rd patch Legendary powerhouses and stronger auras.

However, Athan decided to lay low for a while to accumulate more Abyssal Blood Crystals.

The only limiting factor in producing more Abyssal Blood Crystals was physical power, as his vitality would consume a lot with the production of each Abyssal Blood Crystal.
