The Tale of the Void Emperor

While Athan and Mike were on their way back to Thunder-Fire Valley, The people of Lotus Ridge Sect arrived at the mountain surrounded by chaotic space energy.

Looking at the mouth of the mountain which was filled with Spatial blades and storms, Sect Master's face turned grave.

He looked at everyone while speaking seriously, " Wait here for me, I'll go inside the mountain, Those Spatial Blades and Storms can wound even me so needless to say what will happen if you go in. "

" Yes Sect Master ( Master ) "

Nodding his head at the response, The sect master walked toward the mouth of the mountain as he cast defensive spells.

After entering the region filled with Spatial blades and Spatial storms, His Wooden barrier would be destroyed with one Spatial blade so he was always ready to cast another one, and when he encountered Spatial Storms, on top of his barrier being destroyed, he was also slightly injured but his wooden barrier had healing properties so he just kept moving forward while casting it.

It didn't take him long to enter the cave and after moving forward for some time, His face finally eased from grim expression and turned into one filled with excitement.

" It's really the stargate, the records were not false, Now I finally can travel to the place where Ancestors came from and become more powerful there. "

Stargate and Teleportation Formation are different. The teleportation formation is less complicated and can only be traveled from one place to another place in the star sector.

But If one wants to go to another Star sector then Stargate needs to be built instead and the consumption of stargate is way higher than Teleportation formation.

The Star Sector is like a whole world in a way. A naturally formed barrier surrounds a Star Sector, and it is a challenging task to break it and move into space.

But beings who have knowledge and power can build Stargate that can allow one to travel from one Star Sector to another Star Sector.

Also, Different Star sectors have different levels of development in them, Take This Griza Star Sector, for example, This Star Sector has Fire, Water, Wood, Earth, Water, Lightning, Air, Space, Light, and Dark Elements.

Then there is another Star Sector that is few light-years behind Griza star Sector. This Star Sector is relatively smaller in size than the Griza Star Sector and in it are only Fire, Water, Wood, Earth, and Air elements, so people in there only awakens affinities from these 5 elements.

He knows that even Griza Star Sector is considered a small fly compared to behemoths out there, Although His Ancestor did not come from such powerful Star Sectors, the place he came from was still more powerful Griza Star Sector.

' I'll have to get this planet under my control, out of all planets in Griza Star Sector, this planet's mountain contains the best source of Space Element, thus Ancestor built the Stargate here instead of our main planet. '

In the records left behind by the Ancestor was written that under this mountain was an excellent source of Space Element, and that's why Ancestor built the Stargate on top of it and arranged a formation that disturbs the space energy resulting in the chaotic region of space around this mountain.

This formation can mask the energy of the space source and protect the stargate at the same time by forming the chaotic region of space.

He then looked at the bottom part of the stargate where there was a small square hole and took out a small silver square plate that perfectly fit into the small hole.

The small silver plate is known as the coordination plate.

After he inserted the silver plate knowns as the coordination plate The Stargate lit up and a wormhole formed.

" Looks like it's still working perfectly. "

After checking that it was working, He removed the silver plate and returned while thinking, ' I'll have to call all of my sect's force here and guard this place more thoroughly as other sects from different planets might have noticed our movements. '

...

...

After traveling for just 8 hours, Athan and Mike were close to reaching Thunder-Fire Valley.

" I forgot that This Four Winged Hurricane Tiger's speed is faster than Fire Eagle and with my Air energy its speed is even faster than the real Four winged hurricane tiger. "

Mike nodded hearing it and asked with some confusion, " What happened your Fire Eagle? "

Athan thought for a second before saying, " It must have been killed by the people at the pond to vent their anger. "

" I see..that's indeed possible after what you did there hahaha. " Mike knew about the deeds of Athan and could not help laughing.

Soon they arrived at The Thunder-Fire valley and directly flew towards the Main Palace where Sect Master resided.

Before entering the palace, Athan dissolved the Beast Art.

Soon they entered the Valley Master's hall.

Upon seeing them enter, Valley Master said to the elders who were present there, " We'll talk about the plans later, you all may return for now. "

" Yes, Valley Master. "

The elders bowed and left as they took a few curious glances at Athan.

while they knew of the direct disciple of Valley Master, They didn't know who the other young man was.

Seeing that everyone has left, Mike stepped forward and respectfully said, " Master, I am back and I have successfully cleared all the grey impurities and also expanded my Space elemental sea before refining it now all I need to do to become an Elemental Archmage is to build the Revolving Refinement Gate. "

The Valley Master was surprised that mike had already cleared his grey impurities but he found the reason soon looking at Athan, Elemental Overlord's Mystic energy can be very useful in clearly grey impurity, He was also planning to clear mike's grey impurity using his mystic energy, but since Athan was with him, He must have cleared his grey impurities.

After a brief surprise, He smiled as he took out a small bottle from his storage ring before giving it to mike, " Good good, Now eat the pill in this bottle, It is Air Affinity pill that I bought from Pavillion Master of Sky Lark pavilion. "

Mike was shocked and hurriedly said, " Master...This is too valuable, I can't accept it. "

Hearing him, before Valley Master could say anything, Athan spoke casually, " It's just Air affinity pill, not too valuable, don't reject the goodwill from your master and eat it. "

" Eh..." Mike was speechless.

The Valley Master's lips twitched as he thought, ' I spent a fortune to buy this pill okay? What do you mean by not too valuable? '

But outside he spoke with a kind smile, " Just eat it mike, the Air element will complement your Space element well, After you have finished eating this, Start gathering Air energy and expand your Energy realm, Your Energy realm is only 5m diameters big right now, you need to make it to 10m diameters by gathering Air energy and forming the Air Elemental sea. "

After saying this he looked at Athan and spoke after hesitating for a few seconds, " Athan.."

Athan looked at the valley master who said, " Tiana has something to tell you, She is currently waiting inside the house in Peaceful garden, you should probably go there and talk with her. "

Although Athan was confused, He did not say anything and just exited the Palace before moving towards his house.

It didn't take him long to arrive there and entered the house.

[ A/N: cut me some slacks here, readers (｡•́_•̀｡)]

As soon as he entered, Tiana who was sitting on the chair in the hall noticed and she dashed forward before hugging Athan.

Athan was startled and before he could say anything he heard Tiana's voice.

" Athan, I love you. I want you to know that Those few days I spent with you, even when we didn't talk much were the most peaceful days I experienced, When you talk to me with your dashing smile, My heart beats faster, But...."

Tiana paused as she took a deep breath and continued, " But I am a weakling so if I stay with you, I'll only become a burden to you. "

she then pulled out from hug as she looked at Athan with determination mixed with a bit of embarrassment and said, " Athan..."

Athan was shocked and his heart started to beat faster due to what Tiana just said.

After all, he is just 18 years old and this is the first time someone confessed to him.

He looked at those determined eyes of Tiana and felt something, and opened his mouth to say something but before he could speak.

*smackooch...* [A/N: original sound LOL]

Tiana's mouth pressed forward as her lips hit Athan's lips awkwardly and kissed him, teeth got involved as nobody had the experience but she did not stop.

Having tasted the lips of a girl for the first time, nerve endings on Athan's lips simulated as he felt euphoria and affection.

Athan started to cooperate as he also started kissing awkwardly.

It was a magical feeling and they didn't feel like stopping.

But Tiana didn't want just a kiss from Athan.

Before she jumps into the fire where there lay 9 deaths and 1 life, She wanted to have everything of Athan and give him everything of her.

She pulled her face back and spoke with determination, " Athan.. "

" I...want you to take all of me, not just lips. "
