The Tale of the Void Emperor
chapter-631

Because of pressure, Shubargu moved with godspeed and hurridly started collecting and stealing treasures.

Things were getting out of hand. Many people were aware of Shubargu's strength, but they didn't know how he got that large army of strange beasts around him.

...

"Sir, there is a person inside who is higher than Evagon-realm but managed to enter inside with some means. He-"

"Shut up! The portal gate can detect if the person is in Evagon-realm or higher! Before you, six people came and reported the same thing. He wore a mask and had an army of strange beasts by his side, right?" one of the enforcers of the council said with an angry expression.

"B-but...he was so much more powerful than any Evagon-realm we met! My friend here has a power sensor of 2 million battle power, but he couldn't measure that person's battle power."

"Hmm? Are you sure that his battle power was higher than 2 million?" said the enforcer while narrowing his eyes.

"W-we are not sure, but my power sensor has a 2 million limit, and it still displayed 'unable to measure' when I tried to scan his battle power."

The enforcer fell into thought before he clicked his lizardly tongue, "fine, you all can return now. I am going to send a team to investigate inside. You see that board?" the enforcer pointed at a large whiteboard before he continued, "draw his appearance on that board."

...

Ten more days passed, and Tiana and others were still roaming everywhere in the large country-like trading post.

"It's been almost a month; when will Athan return?" Sen asked as he rested her head on the table with a sigh.

"Well, he said his goal was 1000, so...it might take some time. However, he should be returning soon because he can always use his army of voidlings to speed up his work," Shiromi said with a smile.

"Yeah," Tiana nodded.

"Hello, ladies and gentlemen."

Suddenly, everyone was shocked to see a Joker-like being appearing on top of the large table they sat at.

Dean Lenix and Head Zangrel were also shocked because they couldn't sense his presence. But they and all others felt that this... funny-looking being was extremely unfathomable.

"My name is Yok, and I have been observing you for a while now. However, you all didn't display much of your capability and roamed around having fun. So, hehehe, accompany joker for a little test. Don't worry; I will reward you for taking your time, so...Let's go!"

*Poof...*

Suddenly, Tiana, Drizzly, Avelia, and all others disappeared, including Dean Lenix and Head Zangrel.

The nearby people were surprised.

"Hey, I am pretty sure that a large group was sitting at that large table, but...they suddenly disappeared."

"Yeah, I didn't sense anyone powerful there but guess a master was hidden among them. Must be a chaos saint if he managed to teleport like that."

"Indeed."

...

"Sir, we didn't find the person according to this appearance but...we found a strange thing there. We found a strange cocoon."

"A cocoon?" the enforcer asked the investigation team leader.

"Yes, sir. That cocoon smelled really dangerous, so we didn't dare to get close to it."

"We have removed all chaos king-level things and beasts from that force-treasure dimension, but you all still felt afraid of that cocoon while being peak chaos kings?" the enforcer narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Yes, sir. Something is very strange with that cocoon," said the investigation team leader with a weak smile.

"Lead me there," the enforcer said as he felt the need to see that personally.

...

After half an hour, the enforcer and the other four people of the investigation team arrived at the location and saw a strange cocoon with eccentric black, white, and light grey patterns on the ground under a tree.

Light grey mist was swirling around the cocoon, and one could see a waterdrop-shaped symbol on the cocoon, with black and white chasing each other inside that waterdrop-shaped symbol.

"Strange...I am also feeling fear. T-this...did you all try to extend your soul sense towards that cocoon?" the enforcer was shocked before he asked the investigation team.

"No, sir. We didn't dare to extend our soul sense there. We got a clear life-threatening feeling when our soul senses were halfway towards that cocoon," said the investigation team leader.

*crack....*

Suddenly, they heard a slight crack and involuntarily trembled.

A dark and white aura spilled out of that crack, and right after that, the space around the cocoon started to become unstable.

*crack...*

*CRACKKKKKKKK...*

The first crack was of the cocoon, but the second crack made the enforcer and the other four almost piss their pants.

"Leave! Leave! Tell everyone to leave! FAST!" the enforcer shouted before he hurriedly left, 'I have to use the large-scale announcement device fast.'

The investigation team also left because they also saw what had just happened.

The foundation of this fucking force-treasure dimension got...crumbled into pieces.

"Hurry up! It's just a matter of time before this dimension is destroyed! FUCK!"

The entire dimension trembled! Chaotic mountains, rivers, jungles, etc., started to crack and break.

"Nyaa!" Primo had jumped off the cocoon after hearing the first crack.

After a minute, the cocoon cracked more and more before it entirely crumbled and revealed a naked Athan.

However, Athan waved his hand as his void robe, and void mask appeared on his body.

"Hmmm? What's going on?" Athan was surprised at this destructive sight around him.

"Nyahaha, master. This dimension is being destroyed since its core crumbled," Primo laughed and said.

"Because of me?" Athan asked with a wry smile.

"Well, yeah. The abyssal darkness spilled out from the cocoon bore immense pressure around here and cracked it, but the core of this dimension had auto-recovery, so it tried to recover the damage and fix the space. However, preciously because of that, the core was overwhelmed by the abyssal darkness and crumbled into pieces. Now with the core to support the function and foundation of this dimension, it's getting destroyed."

Hearing that, Athan was speechless, "well, that spilled out abyssal darkness was not in my control since I was still not awake at that time. Otherwise, It wouldn't have damaged the space around here."

But Primo snorted hearing that and blamed the core.

"Nyah! The core was stupid. If it didn't try to recover the space instantly, I could just take abyssal darkness before it damaged more space around here."
