"Who?!"

The legendary powerhouses, who looked like a mix of vampire and a devil with three devilish horns on his head and sharp fangs, was startled when he heard the voice and turned around.

'How come I didn't sense him?' the man thought as he saw Athan floating a hundred meters away from him, 'could this be a plot of those other three or one of them? Hmmm...no, they wouldn't take the risk of killing me by joining together.'

The legendary powerhouses were valuable forces to each clan, empire, or organization. Death of even one would spark a feud, and it was not easy to kill a weaker legendary powerhouse because they are very resilient.

A dying legendary powerhouse could take multiple powerhouses before dying because their Legendary Genealogy Path has a Legendary Nexus, which is their core, where all of their profound accumulation are gathered. Everything they have learned and comprehended from start to finish is stored there in the form of a unique power known as Evogenic. This Evogenic is only activated when breaking through and dying.

So, suppose a legendary powerhouse decided to self-destruct their Legendary Nexus. In that case, the power exploding from it could be very hard to block. It's very fatal to their soul because that profound Evogenic power could kill other legendary powerhouses. By chance, they survive, that Evogenic power could mess up their genealogy path and rob them of their chance to further breakthrough or even cause permanent soul damage, reduce lifespan drastically, etc. It would mess up their evolution from the core.

That's why the death of a legendary powerhouse is rare. Naturally, powerful legendary with preparation can still resist the Evogenic blast.

In the first place, everyone has hopes of living, but if they self-destruct, then their soul will also turn into dust, robbing their chance at rebirth. So, not many are willing to self-destruct their Legendary Nexus.

Hence, among the legendary powerhouses, unless there is bad blood between the two or some deep hatred, then those who simply encountered each other here for resources wouldn't risk their lives against each other.

Not to mention, all of them have backings; the death of one person can trigger more trouble for two sides, especially when a close relative of legendary powerhouses dies. This would ultimately benefit people on the third side.

That's why when this man saw Athan, the first thing he uttered his was backing because he didn't recognize Athan and couldn't even gauge Athan's strength as well.

"I don't care about your backing," Athan shook his head with a smile, "But I have no one behind me. I am on my own. So you have two options. First, die here, and then I take that fruit. Second, you leave from here to save your life, and then I take that fruit."

"The end result will be the same; I will be taking that fruit," Athan said with a faint smile, "however, if you choose the second option, you can take revenge on me later. You can call other people from your clan or empire or whatever and join hands to kill me. Sounds good, right?"

"Huh?" the man was dumbfounded, 'wait...don't tell me he is one of those legendary mental powerhouses? Those that have severally impacted their souls and gained eccentric thinking processes. They are not afraid of dying or anything and do whatever they want.'

"My name is Athan, and I will be here for the next few months. So you can come any time you want," Athan said with a smile and then started floating towards the fruit.

The man gulped, and even some sweat appeared on his forehead. He didn't want to give up the fruit, but he had to recover himself first, even if he wanted to fight. Not to mention, he was not confident of winning because he absolutely couldn't grasp anything about Athan like this strength or stage.

When Athan arrived in front of him, he obediently moved aside while clenching his fist.

The fruit behind him was taken by Athan, and he could only watch in frustration. However, internally, he sneered angrily, 'since you are letting me go, then I will definitely repay you for taking this fruit away.'

Athan was not paying attention to that man anymore, and that man also left after seeing that Athan didn't give two hoots about him, not considering him a threat at all.

After the man left, Athan sat down crossed-legged and consumed two abyssal blood crystals to use Sanctuary of Void and Void Predatory.

He then took a bite from the palm-sized fruit. Just a single bite overwhelmed his body as intense vitality and some profound evolution power directly affected his body on a fundamental level.

Athan hurriedly ate the entire fruit in one go as overwhelming power entered inside his body.

He then entered meditation and properly guided the power of the fruit in his body's complex system such that every cell of his body get refinement, strengthening, and making sure that his body's strength evolves to a higher power.

Trillions of tendrils appeared on Athan's body as they pulsed with a red glow.

This intense vitality and profound evolution power of the fruit were strengthening Athan's body to a whole new level unknown to him.

He spent all of his voidpulse in just one hour as he consumed them to increase his body's limit on gene-level and properly absorbed the power of the fruit to strengthen his body.

After another half an hour, Athan finally opened his eyes and felt extremely comfortable in this body for the first time after coming out of the recent cocoon.

Taking a deep breath, Athan stood up and stretched his hands and legs as a smile stretched across his face.

"This power jump in the body....huuu, it's too big," Athan spoke as he inhaled and exhaled the pure vitality air from the atmosphere.

"However, I can still improve a bit," Athan muttered as he gained insights after eating this fruit and decided to improve the fundamental structure of his body a bit more so that it could mesh even better with his abyssal darkness and void pulse.

He sat down crossed-legged once again and started the process of modifying his body fundamentally.
