The Tale of the Void Emperor-Chapter 671: Another Prey
After half an hour, the four Chaos Supreme powerhouses arrived at the red cliff and saw Athan resting with his eyes closed.
"Umm...Lord Athan, we have gathered intel and a straight path towards the next target," said Kingvi as he waved his hand and opened a portal beside Athan.
Athan stopped brainstorming about his new idea and opened his eyes, 'I'll have my fill first and then enter into deep meditation since there's still ten years left before I can arrive at the Orchos Firmament. In ten years, I will have to develop my path.'
Since Athan knew that he would be facing troubles from Orchos Celestials after going to Orchos Firmament, he decided to take this ten years of time to make him more powerful. He didn't have any knowledge about the Orchos Firmament, so it's better to be prepared as much as possible instead of blinding moving forward.
That way, he can move faster there and continue to become as strong at fast speed even after going to Orchos Firmament.
'Tiana, Avelia, and everyone, I will get all of you back soon,' Aren thought with determination as he stood up and walked towards the portal.
Seeing Athan standing up, Kingvi hurridly spoke, "please take this card with you. After arriving at the other side of the portal and flying straight for some time, a city will come into view. That city is the exclusive territory of Gemini Tundra Supreme."
Athan grabbed the card that Kingvi passed to him and looked at it.
"This card is the entry ticket into the city, and you can even meet Gemini Tundra Supreme directly after showing it to the guard," said Kingvi before he explained, "Gemini Tundra Supreme is known for his unique Gems inventions that can enhance any items. However, only those who possess this card can custom order those Gems from him with various effects."
"So I use this card to easily get close to Gemini Tundra Supreme and finish him off?" Athan asked before he nodded with a faint smile, "good job. This will save the trouble of catching him."
After saying that, Athan entered inside the portal.
Athan didn't know if other candidates knew that Puppet Lord Flake died, but they definitely wouldn't want to face Athan head-on if they were aware.
After all, a candidate's death was unheard of until Athan killed one.
So if other candidates knew that there was a chance that they would die if they had a conflict with a random person, they definitely wouldn't face Athan if he went head-on like before.
...
After moving for a while, Athan indeed saw a city coming into his view.
As Athan arrived at the city's entrance gates, two guards stopped him and demanded an entry token.
"I have an important meeting with Gemini Tundra Supreme," Athan plainly spoke as he took out the card and showed it to the guards.
Seeing the card, the guards became respectful, removed the gate's barrier veil, and gestured Athan respectfully to enter inside.
"The Supreme Master has been notified of your arrival. A person will soon come and lead to the Supreme Master's palace," said the guard to Athan.
Athan nodded and entered the city.
...
"Dreevindo, where is your candidate right now?" A human old man with white hair and a long white beard holding a cane spoke to Dreevindo in a small floating palace somewhere in the Chaosverse.
"Why don't you try to find him yourself?" Dreevindo said to the old man with a grin.
Hearing that, Higgs's face sank, "I am keeping an eye on my candidate, so I will know if that Athan targetted my candidate or not. However..."
"However, you won't be able to do anything to prevent your candidate's death," Dreevindo finished the sentence with a smile, "so? you want to meet Athan to redirect him to another candidate in case he targets your candidate?"
"Yes," Higgs nodded with a straight face.
"Look, unlike all your candidates who are expecting your help and good things once they arrive at Orchos Firmament, my candidate is not like that," Dreevindo said with a sad sigh, "he will only do the things he wants to do. Your candidates respect you, but Athan doesn't give a shit about me."
"Seriously?" Higgs was dumbfounded.
"Yeah," Dreevindo nodded with a weak smile, "anyway, I won't tell you his location, but in case he targets your candidate, then you should talk to him peacefully instead of threatening him. Otherwise, you will have to start searching for a new candidate like Sirius."
"Sigh...," Higgs sighed before he disappeared.
...
On the other hand, Athan was currently facing Gemini Tundra Supreme as they both sat across a table.
Gemini Tundra Supreme had a humanoid-dragon appearance, but instead of draconic wings, he had feathered icy blue wings.
"What's your name?" Gemini Tundra Supreme asked in a slightly condensing tone, "anyway, since you were lucky enough to receive my exclusive card, then you can demand what kind of gem you want. Here is the list of gems with their respective effects."
"Is this gem creation of yours related to your Genome power?" Athan asked.
Gemini Tundra Supreme narrowed his eyes as he felt the disregard of himself in Athan's voice.
"Indeed, it's related to my genome power," Gemini Tundra Supreme spoke in a more indifferent tone this time.
Athan nodded and asked leisurely, "do you have some samples right now? I want to see."
"Bastard! The one in front of you is Gemini Tundra Supreme, one of the most powerful existence in Chaosverse!" A woman appeared from the darkness at the corner of the hall and spoke angrily towards Athan, "speak respectfully to the Supreme Master!"
Athan looked at the woman and directly attacked her with his overwhelming soul power, suppressing her instantly as she lost her consciousness.
Sensing the overwhelming soul power of Athan, Gemini Tundra panicked, "y-you...you are that person who killed Flake..."
He stood up, intending to run. However, The soul presence of Athan loomed over him and Athan's cold words stopped him.
"Do you think you can escape now that you are in front of me?"
"Arghhhhhh........!"
