Chapter 552 – Touch Of Transcendent, Seed Of Transcendency.
Athan and others first returned to Youhan Tree. He also wanted to use his new soul ability on the members of the hidden dragon troupe.
…
Tronel, Joza-Eile, Chunsi, Aakerin, Leib, and Samira were standing in front of Athan as he told them about what he was going to do to them. Drizzly was currently in meditation since she had already received the Touch of Transcendent from Athan.
"Don't resist this effect. My soul energy will envelop your soul, and you will lose consciousness for a minute. But after that, hehe, you will be surprised," Athan said with a beam on his face.
Tronel and others nodded with excited smiles on their face.
"Athan, we trust you and have no problem in opening up ourselves to you. Hahaha, do whatever you want," Tronel laughed and said.
"How I wish boss Yone would be alive to see this. He would be jumping in joy as well seeing Athan becoming this strong," Leib spoke with a sad smile.
A silence descended for a moment before Athan broke it with a faint smile, "Boss Yone's soul was not destroyed, and it was successfully departed into order cycle of Chaosverse. So, there is still a chance that I can find him in the future.
"He must be living his new life somewhere, and when I become strong…," his eyes showed resolve as dominant intent oozed out from him, "strong enough to dominate even the Chaosverse itself, I will find him and return all of Boss Yone's memories to him that I acquired."
Everyone was shocked at this statement of Athan. To dominate Chaosverse itself?
But they couldn't help but feel that…Athan would somehow do that.
"Anyway, let's start and have Athan use his ability on us. I am sure it will be quite useful for us," Aakerin smiled gently and said.
Tronel and others nodded as they completely opened up their defense and let Athan enter his soul energy inside.
Athan created six tiny seeds of his soul energy and brought them near Tronel and others' souls.
His ability, Touch of Transcendent, doesn't require anything special for him to use it. More like, his soul energy gained a mystical property after the baptism, and he named this property as an ability called Touch of Transcendent.
He could activate and deactivate this property at any time, and he would deactivate it when attacking with his soul energy because this property was not offensive but supportive. So, he would only use it on allies and not enemies.
After Athan put the seeds beside their souls, he used more of his soul energy and enveloped their souls.
At this time, Tronel and others started to feel heavy consciousness-wise and fainted, but their soul was going through significant changes.
Their souls were becoming stronger fundamentally.
More importantly, the quality of their souls was rising! This caused their comprehension, senses, and various other soul-related aspects to become significantly stronger. This was not something any external item or such thing can do! This was practically making them fundamentally stronger and more talented overall.
After a minute, Athan felt that their soul had reached the limit and took back the remaining soul energy.
With a sharp light in Athan's eyes, he thought, ' Once their soul transcends completely through the seed containing my soul energy, they will no longer be bound to Chaosverse's order. As a final defense, the seed will activate its last burst when their souls are close to death by any external soul attack of anyone and "kill" their soul.'
Tronel and others regained their consciousness and woke to feel absolutely shocked.
"T-this…Athan, we are not dreaming, right?" Samira asked with excitement and disbelief in her eyes.
*Slap!*
Everyone saw Joza-Eile hitting his own face with his tentacle-like hands. Seeing everyone looking at him, Joza-Eile rubbed his cheeks, "Ahem, so I am not dreaming."
Athan and others laughed while Tronel and others were too excited over the changes.
"You are not dreaming. The only thing blocking you from reaching your previous height of power is the Orderic Catastrophe stage since it's based on timing. However, I don't know if it will take a long time or a short time since you will be passing through those phases for the second time in your life.
"Anyway, once you are done crossing through that phase, Chaos Monolith Hills will send you a ship and pick you all up," Athan said with a faint smile.
"Athan, what is that seed near our soul?" Aakerin asked with curiosity.
Athan smiled and said, "That's the seed of transcendency. As your soul settles with this rapid growth and you make progress, the seed will release my soul energy and gradually transcendence your soul. I will keep its benefit secret for your own sake. But you will eventually find them in the future, and once that happens, you will be in for a big surprise."
Tronel and others looked at each other before laughing, "Alright. The benefit we have received is already such mystical, so If you tell us about that seed of transcendency, It will be too much for us to handle, Hahaha."
Athan nodded with a smile while thinking dominantly, 'Chaosverse or any verse, I will not let you take away my people anymore.'
"Damn, I am already imagining us becoming very powerful with this much increase in our comprehension and soul strength," Leib spoke excitedly.
"No need to hold back anymore, hahaha. Go and start training. We are returning to Chaos Monolith Hills and will be waiting for you," Athan said with a laugh.
…
After a day, Athan and others departed with an additional member, Drizzly.
"Hey, Athan. When will you use that ability on us as well?" Sen asked with a pout.
Others also looked at him with curiosity as they wanted to experience his ability as well.
Athan smiled and said, "Right now."
He also helped them as their soul's quality became high and their transcendence process started. Their soul strength and comprehension will significantly increase continuously as the seed empowers and transcendence their souls gradually.
Athan guessed that transcend process would probably take eight to ten years.
At last, he went to Lady Fu and asked, "What about you, Lady Fu?"
Lady Fu faintly smiled and chuckled, "I would be a fool if I rejected the grace of Void Emperor."
Athan rubbed his nose with a smile before he said, "Alright, open up your soul and don't resist."
Lady Fu nodded and thought, 'I hope that helps me get closer to the breakthrough…'
At this time Lady Fu didn't know that she was severely underestimating the benefit that Athan was about to bestow on her.
While using Touch of Transcendent and putting The Seed of Transcendency, Athan thought about Efyeed, 'As for Efyeed, I think this will work even more drastically. Hmmm, maybe I should try to connect Efyeed to the origin of AVOF by invoking the connection? However…there's a chance of something going wrong due to that. Guess I'll have to consult with Primo before trying that out.'
After a short while, Athan was finished and Lady Fu also regained her consciousness.
She was actually not expecting to lose her consciousness since she was Evagon-realm and her soul was very powerful. However, although she lost her consciousness, she was aware of her soul going through tremendous changes and was in a state of shock.
'T-this….NO WAY!'
