The Tale of the Void Emperor-Novel

Chapter 512: [Bonus Chapter] Breakthrough, Power Spike, Close to the Goal.

Inside Athan's void region...

His order eidos was finally upgraded to satisfactory conditions as it shined.

The dreamy blue and white energy from the chaotic cloud outside enveloped Athan before entering inside him and started circulating around his order eidos.

While circulating, The order eidos was also releasing order force as it mixed with the stream of dreamy blue and white energy as they started to combine and slowly formed into an orb.

This orb is known as Orderic Orb, and its uses are massive as it boosts one's strength considerably.

'Finally formed my first Orderic Orb. Let's see how much my SBP increased. '

Athan checked his SBP by activating the SBP token and using his powerful order technique.

[ Superficial Battle Power: 82530 Chaos Warrior.]

'It looks like I will reach 100,000 SBP before breaking through to Zen order elite, 'Thought Athan after he calculated the things he was going to do like training in Initial-Elite essence, body, and soul order method and learning new order techniques of all three types.

' But first, I should eat the remaining fruits and also see how many fruits I need to eat to call soul order catastrophes. Sigh...'

Surviving several soul order catastrophes will also boost his SBP since his soul will get some power-up with each soul order catastrophe he survives.

As such, Athan started eating more fruits. He ate ten fruits and waited, but the catastrophe didn't arrive as expected.

Seeing this, other people were surprised.

" Wait...is he planning to survive soul order catastrophe before learning soul order techniques? What the hell..."

"Maybe he doesn't know?..."

"Don't be stupid. He should know that soul order catastrophes are a tough nut to crack due to their mystical nature, and one needs soul order techniques to defend against them."

"Yeah, since he broke through from Essence order catastrophe phase, he should start learning soul order techniques...or is he really confident of surviving soul order catastrophe without soul order techniques?"

"Who knows? Maybe he has an innate soul physique with superior soul energy and is confident of passing the first few soul order catastrophes? But eventually, the catastrophes will get more dangerous, and he will have no choice but to learn soul order techniques to survive against them."

...

Athan continued to eat fruits, and when he ate the twentieth fruit, He finally sensed the coming of catastrophe.

'Twenty fruits? Great...,' Athan grimaced as he closed his eyes.

Chaotic aurora mass of energy loomed over Athan once again before his Catastrophe Codex bubbled with dark and dark green mystical force.

As the name suggests, a soul order catastrophe is a catastrophe that will attack his soul, and it also comes from catastrophe codex.

One can only defend against the mystical force of this catastrophe by using one's soul energy. If one tried to block or attack the soul order catastrophe with order force or chaos force, it wouldn't work as they would simply bypass the soul order catastrophe.

There is one exception, and that is to use soul order techniques. The soul order technique contains order force, chaos force, and soul energy. Still, since it's a technique that utilizes those powers in combination, they can be used to defend against the soul order catastrophes, which is the orthodox way to survive soul order catastrophes.

But Athan was confident in his soul energy. After all, his soul energy had the power of abyssal void of fabrication.

Normally, after people breakthrough from the Essence order catastrophe phase, they will start learning the soul order techniques because they need to use those techniques to defend against soul order catastrophes.

But Athan's soul energy was unique as it has the property of both abyssal darkness and voidpulse. It was essentially abyssal darkness and voidpulse but mixed together and would change form according to his will.

It's just, until now, the capacity of his soul energy was not that much to be used in the same manner as he uses his abyssal darkness and void pulse.? At most, he could use his soul energy to execute his self-created soul illusion technique, Gaze of Void.

But now...it was finally time to start training his soul and strengthen it all ways.

With each soul catastrophe passing, his soul will upgrade. After all, his soul was just mutated; it didn't elevate to a higher existence when he was reborn.

His soul had several powerful qualities since the last upgrade, which was due to his actions of scattering his soul and regrouping it.

First, his soul became more powerful potency-wise. In the test, it was discovered that his soul strength was 16 soul points, where in general, people who just break through to the Orderic Catastrophe stage have 4-5 soul points, and even people with special soul physique doesn't have soul points greater than 10 points.

So after Athan went through that upgrade, It was clearly displayed in his SBP token as his SBP increased by twenty-two thousand. So that upgrade related to his soul was quite high, but it only reflected his soul strength and not soul capacity.

If his guess was correct, His soul points should be between 50 to 60. While the soul points of someone who breakthrough to Zen order Elite is at least 100.

Soul point correlates to one's soul strength, which is the potency of their soul energy. The people at orderic catastrophe can't see an increase in their soul points until they enter the soul order phase and pass through soul order catastrophes to make their souls more powerful in an all-around manner.

Second, Athan's soul was different as it was higher in quality than normal people with unique and powerful soul energy, and he also mastered the thousand splitting consciousness ability.

But the capacity of his soul energy was still the same as other people in orderic catastrophe. It was just slightly higher but not much.

However, since his soul strength was strong, and in addition to his unique soul energy, He could also affect people at Zen order Elite with his gaze of the void.

He had discovered that his Gaze of Void didn't have much effect on Zen order Master and above. So, after that discovery, he had decided to upgrade his Gaze of Void once he started training in the soul order method and learning some soul order techniques.

As the black and dark green force attacked his soul, Athan used his soul energy to obliterate them before they could reach his soul.

Once he passed through his first soul order catastrophe, The chaotic aurora mass of force outside released sparkling white force towards Athan, which he let enter inside his body.

The sparkling white force went towards his soul and started strengthening it in an all-round manner.

But the upgrade was minor as his soul strength and soul energy capacity didn't increase that much...which was complete bull shit to Athan. After all, for all other people, once they pass through their first soul order catastrophe, they get a massive boost as their soul becomes very powerful.

The reason behind that massive boost is so that they can start comprehending the higher level of order, Zen order. They can do that while training in Initial-Elite zen order essence methods.

Athan could only think of one reason as to why his soul boost was small. That reason was that...unlike other people, he already grasped zen order sets and mastered Initial zen order from the Miz-Lu Enchanted Kingdom essence order method.

'Sigh...It looks like I will have to pass many soul order catastrophes before I reach the trigger point of breakthrough,' Athan thought with a sigh as he continued eating fruits.

He felt that he would have to survive even more catastrophe than he survived in the Essence order phase.

...

Two hours passed as Athan finished eating all remaining Kuriazak fruits and went through sixteen soul order catastrophes...which successfully dumbfounded everyone in the chaos monolith hills.

Surviving sixteen consecutive soul order catastrophes...without learning any soul order technique.

It was an absurd notion to everyone, and it was like basically courting death.

But everyone saw that Athan indeed passed through sixteen catastrophes without frowning a single time and just left with a carefree expression after that.

...

Athan had a slightly excited expression because after passing through sixteen catastrophes, his SBP increased by six thousand when he tested by activating the SBP token and using a simple soul attack on the curtain.

'I'll quickly complete the first stage of Miz-Lu Enchanted Kingdom and form the chaotic mini world. I'll use the Orderic Orb as well, so after doing that, my battle power might just reach 100,000 SBP, and I will be able to establish the Hill faction.'

Without wasting any more time, Athan sat down under Efyeed and started training.

This time, he successfully managed to combine his order force with the unique force which he extracted from the scroll of Miz-Lu Enchanted Kingdom a long time ago when he comprehended the Initial zen order of this chaotic power from the scroll.

He waited for some time and found that both forces ultimately merged, unlike before when his order force simply disappeared.

Seeing that, Athan grinned, 'Now I can start creating the chaotic mini-world.'

The first step of training in the Zen order method was to create a mini-world that one experienced and comprehended from the scroll.

Athan had already experienced and comprehended that beautiful dark blue and lavender world from the scroll and grasped the Initial zen order as well, so he quickly started the process.

He used his soul sense on the sparkling mass of dark blue and lavender as he started controlling it to form the chaotic mini-world by using the zen order sets he comprehended of Miz-Lu Enchanted Kingdom chaotic power.
