The Tale of the Void Emperor

" Put your hand on this stone and release your soul energy into it. "

Hearing that, Athan looked at the stone for a moment before stretching his hand and putting it on the stone.

' Will it work if I use my usual soul energy? Never mind, I don't want to take the risk since If I used my usual soul energy, It might just break or disintegrate this stone. ' Thought Athan as he closed his eyes for a moment before opening them again.

In that short moment, He had completely changed his soul.

Inside his void region, His soul became golden instead of its usual black body with a white border and white organs inside the soul.

His current soul looked exactly like the soul that a normal person would have.

This is another ability he got after coming out of the cacoon. He could just turn his soul into a normal soul with normal soul energy. As for how it happened, Well...It's related to his soul.

Just like how the void outfit and mask appeared on his body while he was in the cacoon. He didn't create them, but they just appeared. However, he was sure that his thoughts had an influence on that transformation.

To him...It feels like he is slowly becoming an owner of something related to his void powers, and It is shaping to become suitable to him according to his will.

There was also another transformation of his body where patterns of black and white appear all over his body. He didn't try to test it, but he thought it would be best to do it when his life is truly threatened.

His current soul seems like a normal soul, and he can release normal soul energy too.

When he found out about this ability and the strange connection to a certain place he felt after coming out of cacoon, He felt that it was related to how his original soul was devoured before it mutated to his current state, and how he grasped this Abyssal void of Fabrication power.

Maybe...from the strange connection, He gained this ability to transform his soul to a normal soul. But this was just its outer shell in a way.

He released the soul energy from his current " normal " soul that looked just like what other normal people would have and sent it towards the white stone.

Mitra can sense this soul energy, and it appears normal to her as well. But if Athan wants to, He can instantly transform this supposed normal soul energy into his usual soul energy that is a mix of black and white. Same with his soul.

' Now, let's see how powerful my soul is. ' Athan thought while looking at the reaction of the white stone.

The white stone shined, and something started to appear on top of it.

Mitra looked at the number on the stone and muttered in a surprised tone, " So He was not lying. He is really seven years old. "

She then looked at the other words on the stone and spoke in an even more surprised manner, " 16 soul points! Damn, That's high for someone who has just broken through to Orderic Catastrophe. Monster...This is even a bit higher than those who have a special soul physique. "

Athan creased his brows and asked, " What soul points? "

" Ahh...My bad, I forgot to tell you about it. This white stone tests the power of your soul and the intensity of its soul energy. According to the soul stone, Your soul power is 16 points. That means that your soul rank is Wanderer-rank. "

" Wanderer-rank? Hmmm..." Athan muttered as he looked at the white stone.

Mitra chuckled and nodded, " Hehehe, Yep. You are still a wanderer of Chaosverse. Not powerful enough to gain a solid foothold and title to yourself. But it's pretty good. Usually, The people with an ordinary soul have five soul points after breaking through to Orderic Catastrophe, and people with unique soul physique have slightly higher soul points. "

Mitra then told more things to Athan regarding soul ranks.

Basically, Initer Soul Rank = 5 soul points to 10 soul points.

Wanderer Soul-Rank = 11 points to 100 soul points.

Scholar Soul-Rank = 101 soul points to 500 soul points.

" What is above Scholar soul-rank? " Athan asked with slight curiosity. It seems that the gap of soul points between the next ranks increases a lot.

" Hehehe, If you want to know that, then you have to go to Upper Chaosverse. Now let's assess your body. " Mitra spoke as she gestured Athan to stand in front of a black rectangle monolith.

Athan stood in front of the two-meter tall black rectangle monolith before looking at Mitra, " What now? "

" Punch the monolith with your full physical strength. Don't use order or chaos force or any other kind of power. "

Athan turned his face towards the monolith and stretched his right hand backward before releasing a punch.

...Not even a faint sound was produced, but the monolith shined as some design appeared on it.

" Ehh...Your body strength is really weak. Weird. Your soul is stronger despite not having a special soul physique, while your body is weaker than ordinary people who just broke threads to the orderic catastrophe. " Mitra squeaked in confusion after seeing the result.

The design on the monolith was none other than a blue flower with ten petals.

But Athan was not surprised because he had yet to comprehend the last order level of the Heavenly Stream Pressure. He had paused on strengthening his body because he needed to break through to the orderic catastrophe to participant in the test of Chaos Monolith Hills.

" Athan. " Mitra's face turned serious as she called out to Athan.

Seeing her face like that, Athan had a bad premonition.

" Listen well...."

' Shit...Here we go again. '

" Athan, you should not neglect to strengthen your body because when you enter the body catastrophe phase, Your physical body will suffer to the limit, and if you fail to withstand the catastrophe with your body, you will die. "

" After everything is over when you complete your full newbie event; the first thing you should do is to focus on your body training. "

' Sigh...'
