The Tale of the Void Emperor-Novel

Chapter 21: NANI THE F**K IS GOING ON ?

Athan first closed his eyes and entered a meditative state to absorb the elemental energies of Fire and Thunder from the atmosphere.

He had learned from Lafurge that his mind needs to be absolutely clear of any distracting thoughts and stay blank to enter the meditative state, after one enters a meditative state, their affinity's effect will kick in as it will attract the elemental energies related to their affinity towards them.

Since Athan currently has an affinity for Fire and Thunder then he will attract Fire and Thunder elemental energies from the atmosphere, Of course, there is another way of gathering elemental energies and that is to use the Elemental Crystals but Athan currently doesn't have any so he can only use this method.

Athan suddenly remembered that he had High-grade Fire and high-grade thunder elemental crystals.

" But their essence was sucked out by the black whirlpool..." Athan muttered and suddenly had an idea, ' Maybe I can try to use them as currency to train in Chambers? '

Chambers produce elemental energies in huge amounts so it is also a good way to progress in training, but we need to pay Elemental Crystals as the price to use them.

Athan stood up and grabbed both crystals from his bag before knocking on the door where Tiana was staying.

Inside the room, Tiana was startled and snapped out of her thoughts as she asked worriedly, " What is it ?"

" Just notifying you that I'm going out to cultivate in Training Chambers. " After saying this, Athan went outside and moved in the direction of the Training Zone of Elemental Sorcerers.

Meanwhile, Tiana was startled and thought confusedly, ' Training Chambers? But isn't he Elemental Warrior? Sister Ruzi said that he is an Elemental Warrior who is a relative of Elder Lafurge. '

...

...

Meanwhile, Athan sped up and arrived at The Training Zone.

First, He went to the booth, because these chambers are locked and can only be unlocked after paying the price at the booth.

Athan then went to the booth and said to the person who was in charge, " How long can I train in the chamber with one high-grade Elemental Crystal ? "

The person in charge was a man in his forties, He smiled at Athan and answered, " You can stay in the chamber for 1 hour with 1 High-grade stone. "

Athan nodded as he gave one high-grade Fire elemental Crystal to the person, " I would like to stay for one hour in Fire Chamber. "

The man took the crystal and pressed a button on his table inside the booth before saying, " Alright, I've opened the Fire Chamber No.24, The energy will stop supplying after an hour automatically. "

Athan then arrived at Fire Chamber no.24 and went inside.

There were no handles on the walls, but there was a small mattress in the middle, Athan went there and sat down.

Just as he sat down, Fire elemental Energy in gaseous form appeared.

Athan then entered a meditative state and started to automatically absorb the fire element energy

...

...

Athan suddenly opened his eye as he felt the absence of fire elemental energy around him.

" I didn't even notice the time, I just absorbed the energy instinctively after entering a meditative state. "

Athan then suddenly remembered something...

" SH!T, I forgot to refine the Elemental energies when I was absorbing them, now I have to refine my fire energy sea, wait where my fire energy sea anyway? From what I read in the first book After the energy sea is formed I should be able to make a connection with it automatically and open the channel from it into the outside world easily like moving my limbs.

Athan thought for a few seconds before deciding to enter into a meditative state and as soon as he entered a meditative state, he could clearly feel that something formed below his psychic realm, and that thing seems to have a very close connection with him.

Athan then focused and moved his consciousness there only to be astonished.

Below his Psychic Realm, Another region seemed to have opened just like Psychic Realm and inside that region, a bowl of orange gaseous mass gathered there.

Looking at the gaseous mass, Athan thought, 'So this is my fire energy sea? It's really small. '

Just then he felt some kind of movement in his psychic realm, But before he could go there to check, He was astonished to see something appearing inside this region where his fire energy sea resided.

IT WAS THAT RED CRYSTAL.

That Red crystal started appeared above his fire energy sea and started to spin.

Then Athan got another shock as after the crystal started to spin, it attracted the gaseous energy towards it and in just 3 seconds, the crystal absorbed his fire energy sea completely.

" NANI THE F**K IS GOING ON ? "

Even after the crystal absorbed his fire energy sea, It still did not stop spinning, After a minute the crystal released something.

Athan was absolutely astonished seeing the thing.

' This...Don't tell me this is what I think it is? '

Athan had read about this in the book given by Lafurge, ' When Elemental Overlord acquire Mystic Energy, They can refine their Elemental energies and turn them into liquid form, And this thing produced by the crystal is same as the liquid energy mentioned in the book. '

' This means that I became Elemental Overlord just like this? ' Thinking about this possibility almost scared the piss out of him.

The Red Crystal kept spinning as it produced 5 drops of Fire Elemental energy, after that it didn't produce any drops but it didn't stop spinning.

Athan observed the red crystal for 5 more minutes and finally reached a conclusion, ' Looks like this crystal will keep spinning from now on. '

Still feeling dazed a bit, Athan walked about of the chamber and as soon as he walked out, he received a pleasant surprise.

He finally knew why the crystal was spinning...

It was attracting the fire energy but since the chamber stops producing fire energy, it could not gather them.

Now that he came out from the chamber, Fire energy from the atmosphere was automatically attracted by the crystal as it absorbed them.

But Athan did not wait to observe the process as he went toward the booth and paid a High-Energy Lightning Crystal to train in Lightning Chamber.

' I also have that dark blue crystal, and its function should be similar to the red crystal so let's absorb the Lightning energy first. ' Thinking about this, Athan arrived at the lightning chamber and went inside before sitting in the middle.

He then entered a meditative state and started to absorb the gaseous lightning energy that was being produced.

...

...

After an hour when the flow of lighting energy stopped, Athan entered inside Energy Realm. [A/N: The region that unlocked below Psychic Realm is called Energy Realm where Energy of various elements resides.]

After Athan entered Energy Realm and felt the connection with the gaseous mass of lightning energy, he similarly felt movement in his Psychic Realm and indeed, The Lightning Crystal also hovered above the gaseous lightning energy and started spinning.

After a few seconds, All the gaseous lightning energy was absorbed by the lightning crystal as it started to produce drops of Lightning energy.

Seeing this, Athan grinned happily and thought, ' Hahaha, I became Elemental Overlord without Mystic Realm and Mystic Energy, if people found out, their jaws would drop, and then...they will try to capture me for secrets. '

Athan adopted serious expression as he thought, ' Even though I have the same type of energy as Elemental Overlord, I'm still no match for them because they have Mystic Energy on top of their enormous reserve of Elemental Energy meanwhile I only have few drops of Fire Energy and Lightning Energy. '

Athan decided after thinking, ' I will have to grab this chance given by Lafurge and enter the danger zone and increase the reserve of my Fire and Lightning Energy to the limit, in the next 43 days, I won't even need to cultivate myself as The crystals will slowly absorb the atmospheric Fire and Lightning energy themselves, meanwhile...'

' I will keep feeding the black whirlpool my Psychic Energy daily and see if something happens. '

...

...

After that, Athan returned home and shouted after entering, " I'm back. " Saying this, He entered his room and fed all his psychic energy to the black whirlpool before sleeping.

Meanwhile...

Tiana was still not able to calm herself down, She always had her guard up because she was living in a man's house and the man was unfamiliar on top of that.

She decided to talk with Athan about the previous thing she thought.

She came out of her room and arrived at the door of Athan's room, " hmm? His door is half-opened!! what is his doing? "

She then slowly pushed open the door and saw that Athan was fast asleep on his bed.

' Why is he sleeping in the morning? Didn't he sleep at night? '
