The Tale of the Void Emperor-Novel

Chapter 256: Ascended to Chaosverse

Athan's both hands turned dark pick as they stretched forward and grabbed the dark gold rod.

Right after he tried to pull it a bit, The brown lightning flared up and directly released a lightning bolt towards Athan.

According to the leaders of Five great races, Death is the only result of anyone hit by this brown lightning bolt.

But Athan was prepared, His eyes glowed with a dark shine for a moment along with the black orb inside his void region, and instantly, A square shield appeared in front of the brown lightning bolt that was coming towards him.

Seeing the clash between the black square shield and brown lightning bolt, The leaders and other lord-level powerhouses became shell shocked.

The brown lightning indeed managed to destroy the black shield, but it was also spent in the process. In short, mutual destruction.

Athan gradually pulled the dark gold rod as the brown lightning would flare up with his every pull and release lightning bolts towards him. Sometimes one lightning bolt and sometimes two.

But he would block the brown lightning bolts by using the power of his black orb.

After pulling it for a while, He took a break because he can't continuously use the black orb's power.

After using it continuously, He will feel strain in his soul and body, which would weaken him overall.

He had gauged the usage rate of the black orb and white orb with the tests he conducted. The white orb didn't directly impact his combat like the black orb's power of nothingness. There was a limit to how often he could use the black orb's power before he felt fatigued on his body and soul.

On the other hand, the white orb's power was...simply mind-blowing to him. He hadn't tried to attack anyone with the white orb's power because he didn't feel the need to it simply because the supportive and passive power the white orb displayed was already awesome.

Those threads and the pyramid he created with the white orb's power were simply incredible. Due to them, He could use his techniques very fast and also make more the one combined law powers at the same time. More specifically, He could use four combined law powers at the same time by activating them on the four sides of the pyramid. The base of the pyramid acted as his control to combine the law powers.

Generally, people store primal essence in their source core after absorbing it from the source dimension, but since Athan couldn't store energy inside him, he used the white orb's power.

Athan made use of the incident where the white orb went on a rampage and absorbed primal essence from the source dimension without control even when he closed his connection to the source dimension.

He thought he could use it somehow and successfully made a proper connection between his white orb and the source dimension, so now, The white orb would absorb the primal essence from the source dimension whenever He used his techniques and combat forms. The white orb's white threads connected all nine cores and the pyramid, which made it so that the techniques he used could channel energy and form faster.

Athan was recovering himself while others watched the dark gold rod with their mouths agape.

The leaders felt like crying because Athan alone pulled the same length of the dark gold rod in this half-hour than what they managed to pull in the many past millennia.

After an hour, Athan fully recovered and stood up before pulling the rod with the same method.

He combined Earth, Water, and mystic law energy to create epoxy material law energy. He then transformed his hand into epoxy law energy and stretched it towards the rod before pulling it.

The brown lightning bolt once again released towards him after he pulled the rod a bit, and he blocked it too.

' Hmmm...That's almost two meters out. Maybe I'm close to pulling it out now. '

He continued, and after ten minutes, When he pulled once again, The rod came out completely.

*Crackkk....*

Right after he pulled out the rod, Brown lightning flared up intensely before the rod started cracking and then...turned into dust that disappeared in the dark space of the chaos bridge.

But something mysterious happened. The lightning that flared up intensely formed an image of a roaring face of a creature that Athan had never seen before.

Suddenly, The roaring face turned into a giant bolt of lightning and shot towards the place where Athan and others were standing.

Seeing this, Everyone's face turned pale as they hurriedly used their everything and started forming barriers in front of them.

Athan's face also turned severe as he hurriedly used a considerable amount of black orb's power and covered himself into a black barrier. His body also transformed turned into a diamond body.

After the giant lightning bolt arrived in front of them, Athan was the first one to be hit by it before the lightning bolt cracked up and spread into tiny lightning tendrils and hit other people behind him.

Athan took the highest amount of brown lightning's attack because he was at the forefront of it, and he managed to survive with cracks on his diamond body.

But people who were behind me suffered. Among the twenty-six people, including the leaders, eleven of them died.

Those who survived had blank looks. Suddenly, A man of crysax race snapped.

" DAMNN IT!! "

" GREAT LEADERS! You said that there would be no casualties this time, but this is the greatest casualties of all time. ELEVEN! Eleven of our comrades just died. They've been with us for thousands of years and worked hard to reach this stage! "

The great five leaders had ashen looks because they didn't expect to receive retaliation from the brown lightning like this. Elenex also didn't envision this scenario.

As a coincidence would have it, The great five leaders were closest to Athan, and when the lightning bolt spread behind Athan after hitting him, The lightning tendrils skipped the great five leaders.

Athan glanced at them for a moment before he ignored them and flew towards the giant vortex of brown and dark clouds. The brown lightning no more blocked the vortex after he pulled out the dark gold rod.

Fang and Black stayed behind to get strong because they heed Athan's advice. If they followed others to here, There was a chance of them struck by a tendril of brown lightning and dying before successfully enjoying their time being Lord-level powerhouse.

When Athan flew towards the cloudy vortex, the leaders and other powerhouses noticed but didn't say anything.

Elenex was watching everything here from faraway but he couldn't interfere. Looking at Athan going towards the cloudy vortex, He grinned, ' Good luck in your journey. '

...

Athan arrived in front of the cloudy vortex and without any hesitation, entered inside.

He could see mystical brown and dark clouds around him for a second after he entered but then the scenery changed in front of him before he found himself on top of a land filled with yellow grass. But surprising, This place was lively and filled with people.

But Athan had a frown on his face because while he was in that cloudly vortex for a brief moment, something deep inside his soul resonated to a place. More specifically, his soul resonated with his birthplace.

And his birthplace, where his soul was born from was none other than planet Earth that was situated in a lower axiom universe.

Athan was still standing with his head down while thinking, ' If I return now, Uncle and Aunt should still be alive. But I don't know how to get there. It looks like I'll have to find a method on how to return to universes. '

" Hey, kid. Do you want to join Dagger Tooth Palace? We offer complete guidance to newly ascended beings. "

" Don't listen to him, Little brother. Dagger Tooth palace is filled with scums and bandits. You should join Flowery Hills. Our organization has many beautiful females and males, and they live happily by working together in this chaotic world. "

" Ptui...Who are you fooling? Everyone in the Dosflame region knows that Flowery Hills is shady as fuck. This brother, Don't be fooled by the name and what that guy said about Flowery Hills. The best place for newly ascended beings is none other than Warrior's Valley. You will learn everything necessary and the best guidance on how to become a powerful warrior. "

Athan saw three men in front of him who seemed keen to recruit him to their organizations. The surrounding also had similar things happening.

None of the three men were humans but looked humanoid. They had all looked different in appearance, like additional horns, tails, weird eyes, and one of them had four hands with crystal spikes coming out.

Occasionally, Some people would appear out of nowhere, and then people would come out from big tents and approach them just like how these three approached Athan.
