The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 119: Finally, I am here

"Arghaaaaaaaaa....." With every last ounce of his strength, Athan pushed the door further.

The door was 60% opened, and all he saw was darkness, but he believed that his answers were in that darkness as he could clearly feel his soul.

While maintaining the door like this, He slowly got closer and closer before he instantly released his and entered inside the darkness.

Outside, Athan\'s body suddenly disappeared.

...

" A#k o% [email?protected]#, Activated. "

Athan heard some sound cracking in between, so he couldn\'t hear it properly, but he heard the end clearly, and it seems that something activated.

He seems to have appeared at an unfamiliar place and realized that he was no longer as Genesis Avatar but as his main body.

" This....is the place behind the black whirlpool? " Just then, He felt his soul and looked at the top where his giant soul was shrinking rapidly before it entered inside him.

And then, He fainted.

Tiana was practicing and heard the sound of someone falling as she opened her eyes.

Tiana opened her eyes and looked in the direction of the sound, " What\'s going on? "

But her eyes went wide the next second. " ATHAN....." With a shocked voice filled with happiness, She dashed towards him.

\' Athan...You are finally here. \' Tiana\'s eyes were filled with tears as she supported Athan and put his head on her lap.

After a while, Athan opened his eyes groggily and....finally saw her after a long as he smiled, " I am here. "

Both of them stayed silent as Tiana just hugged Athan in his sleeping position.

After a while, Tiana\'s gentle voice rang out as her lips met Athan\'s.

" Athan, I missed you. "

Both of them kissed, and after looking at her once again, Athan finally noticed the changes in Tiana.

With a surprised expression, he said in an impressed voice, " Tiana...You look way more beautiful than before. Your hairs have two colors. Some are red, while some are black. And it seems that you\'ve become a lot more powerful, Are you perhaps on Soul Altar Plane? What\'s going on? "

Tiana chuckled and said, " That\'s because of Genome Technique that I am practicing. You will also get one from Mimi, but..."

Her face turned worried as she looked at the bed on their left side where Mimi was sleeping.

Athan followed where she was looking and was shocked the find a little girl sleeping there.

" Who is she? "

Tiana looked at Athan and asked with a doubt, " You really don\'t know anything about this place? "

Athan shook his head continuously and spoke with a baffled face, " I indeed don\'t know anything about it as you can see, even my physical body here, which means that this space is completely different. "

He then also noticed a floating soul above that had similar facial features as Avelia.

Seeing it, Athan\'s eyes opened wide as he looked carefully and turned to Tiana before saying in incoherent voice, " Th-that....that...Is that Av-avelia? "

Seeing Tiana nodding her head with a smile, Athan was shocked because he clearly saw her disintegrating at that time.

But then, relief washed over him, along with happiness.

Tiana smiled and said, " Mimi pulled her soul inside before it was going to be destroyed. You didn\'t notice it because you were too shocked at that time. But it will take some time to recover her soul, roughly a month or two. Even now, her soul is slowly being healed in this mysterious place. "

"? I see...I should really thank Mimi when she wakes up, But what happened to her? "

Tiana sighed and said, " It\'s because she saved Avelia that Mimi became like this. She used up her power which she was not supposed to use, which inflicted some kind of injury to her. "

Athan thought for a moment and asked, " Did you try to use white-gold energy on her? "

Tiana smiled wryly and said, " No, because I don\'t have any. There was a time when Mimi once asked me to give her all of my golden energy, and I gave her without asking the reason. But Later, she told me that she used that golden energy to heal you when you entered into Fatal Cogitation State and suffered serious injuries. "

" Oh...It looks like she\'s been helping me when I needed it. If I wasn\'t recovered at that time, then I wouldn\'t have been able to breakthrough this fast and would\'ve stayed injured for 6 months to a year, according to Senior Rishen. "

Athan felt increasingly grateful to Mimi after hearing about this.

Tiana smiled and said, " I\'ve been watching you occasionally with Mimi. Senior Rishen is really good to you. And since you just awakened your soul, You should go to your Soul Realm and build an Altar Spirit. As without it, you are still not considered as a proper Soul Altar Plane existence. "

" Yep, I\'ll do now. After that... " Athan grinned and winked before he continued, " We\'ll cultivate some white-gold energy as it\'s been a long time. We also need it to heal Mimi and Avelia. "

Right now, All of his anxieties were gone, and he truly felt peaceful. Tiana is now free, and Avelia is also alive.

Tiana blushed a bit, hearing what Athan said, but then she smiled.

" I\'ll give you something good. "

Saying this, She went towards the White lake, scooped up a few drops with a wooden bowl, and returned to Athan.

" What\'s this? " Athan asked curiously as he felt that this water was a bit different.

Tiana handed him the bowl that had 5 drops of water, " Just drink it and start. You will be surprised by its effects. "

Athan was curious, but he did as she said and drank the 5 drops before closing his eyes.

His soul has been merged with his Genesis Avatar, and it was currently inside the Soul Realm.

The Soul Realm was between Genesis Realm and Energy Realm.

His concept vessels and Lucky were already inside the soul realm as they automatically moved there when it opened.

Athan also had access to a new kind of energy: the Soul energy that comes from his soul, which also returned to its giant size here.

Soul Energy shouldn\'t be carelessly used as it takes a long time to recover. The main use of Soul energy is to create Soul Altars to create their Altar Spirits.

Athan could feel boundless Soul Energy from his soul as he marveled, " Looks like I won\'t need to worry about Soul energy until I reach Greater planes. "

He then started to create the first Soul Altar.

He gathered Soul energy and injected it inside the Prism Lucent Tiger.

Slowly but surely, Strings of genesis energy and soul energy mixed as they enveloped the Prism Lucent Tiger.

The Prism Lucent Tiger\'s structure and core were created with Genesis energy, and it reacted with the soul Energy, which caused this phenomenon.

After a while, The Prism Lucent Tiger turned into A white-colored cacoon with colorful veins that looked the same as its Elemental properties.

The veins were red, blue, white, dark white, etc., as they spread across the whole cacoon.

\' Anyway, What\'s the effect of those white water? How come I haven\'t felt anything yet? \'

Athan wondered doubtfully.

He decided to check his Genesis Realm.

The change he noticed was that there was no black whirlpool inside his genesis realm anymore, but instead, a door that showed the scenery outside could be seen at that place.

" It\'s the same spot... " Athan muttered and started walking towards it.

The scenery was the same place where he sat in meditation and tried to open the door previously.

But since his physical body entered that special space, There was no one at that spot.

" This should be the exit...If my Genesis Avatar leaves from this place, will my real body, which is in that special place, return to the outside world? "

He wanted to know the answer, so he entered the door.

Inside the Special Space, Tiana was started to see Athan\'s body disappearing.

Outside...

Athan\'s main body appeared at the same place where he previously sat down while his Genesis Avatar was pushing the door inside his Genesis Realm.

" Damn...How is this even working? "

He was truly surprised by his own situation.

\' Hmmm. So to enter that Special Space once again, I need to enter the black whirlpool once again? \'

Athan looked inside his Genesis Realm, but he was instantly petrified and slightly panicked when he didn\'t saw the black whirlpool there.

There wasn\'t even the door that he saw previously.

" What\'s going on? " Athan frowned and calmed down before checking his Soul Realm.

But there was nothing new inside his Soul Realm too.

" Damn...There should be a way to enter that special space again. " Athan muttered with an anxious face as he believed that there should be a way as it doesn\'t make sense if it simply disappears.

He closed his eyes and tried to feel the connection to the special Place.

\' This...I got it.!! \'

Athan could clearly feel the connection to the Special Place, and it was increasingly getting stronger.

He thought of entering that place and.....He successfully appeared there once again with his physical body.

Looking at Tiana and the surrounding, He smiled in relief.
