The Tale of the Void Emperor

"Damn!! Who was that? COME OUT!" the phantom man epic powerhouse shouted with anger.

"No use in shouting. I searched and couldn't find any presence beside the people of our groups," said the orbs lady epic powerhouse while shaking her head with a dark expression.

"That person should be at Epic-evolution stage as well, considering he managed to destroy the flower's barrier in such a short time," the phantom man spoke while gritting his teeth.

He then looked at the lady and spoke, "how about we work together? Because if we find another treasure and clash with each other like before, that unknown powerhouse could come again with their sneaky method and steal the treasure."

The orbs lady thought for a moment and nodded, "alright. However...how will we distribute the treasures we find from now on?"

Narrowing her eyes, she continued, "I have an idea if you don't have one."

"What?" the phantom man asked.

"We will take turns getting the next treasures. One your, one is mine. What do you think?"

"Alright," the phantom man nodded before saying, "then the next one will be...your."

"Okay," the lady nodded as both of them approached their groups and started moving together.

After spending a few days together in this adventure of theirs, those two powerhouses fell into love with each other as they experienced life and death situations against other epic powerhouses in this dimension rift. They decided to become life partners after going out.

Happy ever after.

....

"It's been two hours. Are you sure it's going well?" Dreevindo asked Lily with a bored expression as he sat at the round table.

"Shut up and sit at the corner," Lily said with a frown, "It's my first time doing this, so I am doing it slowly and carefully.

"Fine," Dreevindo shrugged and stood up moved towards the mystical pond to check it out.

Huarin was sitting crossed while training as she absorbed the pure orchos energy of this ark space and was making progress in her genealogy path.

Since the path was complicated, she would ask Dreevindo every now and then about all those points and roots on the genealogy path that she had to purify using Orchos energy.

On the other hand, several loud sounds were booming behind the mountain range as Athan and Mimi were sparring against each other.

Athan was practicing his skills and finding new ways to improve them. Mimi volunteered because she was the most powerful one in the group after Athan.

"What kind of genome power is that?" Athan asked as he dodged another sonic punch projection attack from a strange fluffy creature that looked like a panda. There were other colorful fluffy creatures around Mimi beside the panda.

Mimi chuckled and said, "Everyone walks on their unique genealogy path by making progress. The relic they would invoke is 70% up to their thought and style while they can acquire catalysts during adventuring and imbued their powers within their genealogy path."

"So those fluffy colorful creatures with various powers is your unique power that you are developing?" Athan asked with raised eyebrows.

"Hehe, yep," Mimi nodded with a grin, "If I ever become an Absolute Transcendent Mythos, other people would be able to use my developed genome power, which I would name, Mimi's Fluffy Kingdom."

Athan smiled and spoke, "you will definitely become one."

"Alright, now check out my ultimate attack," Mimi said as a fluffy and furry outfit covered her with two cat-like paws on her hands.

"Paws of Mystic Force."

Athan saw two one-hundred-meter giant paws materialized on top of Mimi as they shot towards him.

"That's big and fast," Athan was surprised, but he decided to clash head-on with it as he used his Zontheos Prime void frame and used his 2nd Void Art's skill, Oblivion Fist of Wisps.

"Brother Athan, this attack of mine is not a simple attack, hehe," Mimi said before both of their attacks clashed with each other.

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOM...*

Right when they classed, a strange repulsion force released from the paws with intense wind pressure.

*FWOOOOOOOOOOOOOH..*

Athan was blown several meters away, but he suffered no injuries. On the other hand, the fist projectile of Athan turned into countless mouth wisps as they started biting through the paws.

However, the giant paws glowed as they released more power, and they managed to consume all wisps before shooting towards Athan.

"Oh, brother Athan...that was exhausting," Mimi said with a tired face, "your attacks really consume a lot of my energy if I want to nullify it."

Athan embraced himself as the paws hit him, and he was flung back even more. Naturally, he didn't use Sanctuary of Void because he didn't want to waste too many of his Abyssal Blood Crystals.

For now, he had 472 Abyssal Blood Crystals inside his Void Crux.

*BOOOOOOM....*

The paws even blasted and released a vortex force that surrounded Athan and released chaotic magnetic power to jumble Athan's physical body and trap him while dealing damage.

Naturally, Athan consumed 12,000 points equivalent Abyssal darkness and condensed it into an exploding orb before triggering it to nullify the vortex that trapped him.

"That was a powerful attack," Athan said with a smile.

"I could follow up with more attack once the enemy is a trap, hehe, good, right?" Mimi said with a chuckle.

Suddenly, both of them looked in the direction of Lily as they sensed a wave of potent energy and an intense fragrance.

"It looks like sister Lily finished her alchemy."

Athan nodded as he and Mimi returned and saw Lily with six lollipops floating around her.

"Lollipops?" Athan uttered with a surprised expression.

"Yep, hahaha," Lily chuckled and nodded with a smile. She then gave one lollipop to everyone and spoke, "just put it in your mouth and lick it to extract its potent power every now and then while training. You can use that energy to progress in your genealogy path."

Dreevindo had a lifeless look on his face as he muttered, "that was an epic-grade catalyst resource! An epic-evolution powerhouse could make progress and comprehend new abilities, but this...lollipop? Does it have the same effect?"

"Of course not! I broke it down and made it purely for progress. Since it was epic-grade, then it was useless for us anyway," Lily spoke with a shrug.

Athan looked at Dreevindo and said with a smile, "if you don't want it, then you can give it back."

Hearing that, Dreevindo hurriedly put the lollipop in his mouth and sat down at the table with a blank expression. Turning to Athan, he asked, "did you say something?"
