Athan saw the man taking out a stone, and in that instant, he used Gaze of Void to incapacitate him.

The man's mind went blank as his soul was suppressed, and he couldn't do anything.

Athan also changed his void frame to Extremity Drifter and swooped beside the man at the highest speed possible by Athan and cut the hand of that of man that held that stone.

Athan did that because he felt some space fluctuation, and he didn't want this man to escape.

After Athan cut off the man's hand, a golden brilliance shot out from the man's body as he regained consciousness.

Athan didn't want to kill this man quickly; that's why he didn't use the full power of his Gaze of Void and only used it to incapacitate him to prevent his escape.

"Y-you...stop."

The man now looked at Athan fearfully as his previous arrogance was gone.

An avatar of a middle-aged man appeared from the man's body as he looked at Athan somberly and spoke, "Leave him alone; I can give you anything you want. But if you refuse, then I swear upon my soul that-"

"Stop that swear, you will not be able to fulfill it anyway," Athan interrupted the man as he turned the arm of that man into nothingness along with the stone as they simply disappeared.

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, "what do you want? Isn't it just for that legendary pond? You can have it. Leave my son alone."

"Nope," Athan said with a smile, "such a vile heart, I can't stand him. He will suffer for thousands of years in absolute darkness, and the only thing that will accompany him would be...pain."

"Don't make a mistake that you won't be able to undo in the future," the middle-aged man spoke with cold eyes before he waved his hands and a golden seal shot towards Athan.

The seal was not a thing but some kind of symbol with eccentric words and patterns that glowed purple and gold.

This seal shot towards Athan at a blinding speed. However, current Athan's speed was even faster. Not just his movement, but every action, thought, eyes, mind, and everything were at the extreme speed in Extremity Drifter void frame.

But Athan didn't dodge this seal because he didn't feel any threat from it and also understood a bit about it from the intent coming from the seal.

The seal hit Athan's chest, and Athan let it take its effect on him as a weird symbol imprinted on Athan's chest.

"I can't save my son right now, but mark my words that if anything happened to him, then I will find you and your family before giving you eternal doom in a special hell."

Athan smiled as his eyes glowed with a black and white bolt full of soul power before he stretched his arm towards the man and made a pulling motion.

"Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! F-father! My soul...he is pulling my soul!" he screamed and said before continuing screaming again.

In the previous Gaze of Void attack, Athan had contaminated that man's soul with his soul energy using voidpulse and connected it with his soul.

Right now, there were grey strings attached to that man's soul and Athan's soul.

Athan's soul was also making a pulling motion but in that soul's fingers were strings attached.

This was a new method of soul attack that Athan was developing and was trying since he would have to get a lot of souls in the future without harming them.

His new Gaze of Void was capable of obliterating one's soul as well as well used to suppress that person's soul. So Athan decided to modify it a bit and add more to this technique so that he could connect this soul pulling technique to the Gaze of Void.

Voracious Doom Pull was the name that Athan decided to give to this ability.

"STOP!" The middle-aged man shouted and used whatever energy he had left to attack Athan.

However, before his attack was fully released, his mind went black as the presence of his son's soul disappeared.

"You bastard!" The middle-aged man looked at Athan and growled angrily.

Athan smiled and changed his arm into Arcane Lord void frame's arm before pointing the finger at the hollow body of that man.

"St-"

*Zoooooooom...*

A tiny black orb with red and grey sparks hit the body of the man.

A loud blast occurred before a vortex covered the man's body, shredding it into dust and then nothingness.

Doom Spiral Orb.

This was another technique of 3rd void art and would only be usable in Arcane Lord void frame. Unlike other techniques, Athan can not use this Doom Spiral Orb in normal form because of its complexity that can only be achieved by the unique structure of the Arcane Lord void frame.

This was a single target most potent attack of Athan. Once it hit someone, their existence would be put into a doom spiral of Athan's unique Abyssal Blood Crystal energy consisting of Abyssal Darkness, Voidpulse, physical body power, and soul energy.

The doom spiral would disable all internal and external movement. Nothing can go out, or nothing can come inside in that doom spiral to prevent anyone from escaping. Even that Jump space stone wouldn't work, or anyone from outside wouldn't be able to teleport or save a person inside Doom Spiral.

But they only have a half-second because, after that, the doom spiral would spiral that person's body and soul before shredding them dust and then into nothingness.

The arms of Arcane Lord's void frame have millions of tiny threads in those pipes that make it possible to weave the execution of Doom Spiral Orb. So, his other void frames or normal form can't execute Doom Spiral Orb.

Changing one part of his body into one of the void frames doesn't display the full power of both void frames as well, which is quite obvious.

"I am coming for you!" The middle-aged man thundered as his avatar turned fainter.

"I will be eagerly waiting," Athan said as he waved his hand with a smile.

"Just you wait!"

...

That man's soul was inside Athan's void region, and it was utterly helpless, trapped inside a black cage with no gaps.

He tried to touch the gap, but he felt an immense pain that he had never felt before as he screamed, cried, and begged Athan.

Athan (his soul) arrived in front of that man and looked at him coldly, "I saw your memories...you are really a ruthless fiend. Even I have some bottom lines that I do not cross, but you? Well, time to suffer for the words of threat you have uttered to me."

Athan poured in abyssal darkness inside the orb, but he controlled it at the lowest intensity possible.

"Resist this until your soul energy runs out, and after that, die slowly while suffering for ten years."

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

...

"It looks like I will have to find another prey for my first legendary soul devourment," Athan muttered as he flew out of the island.

However, just as he came out, he sensed a familiar presence some kilometers away from him.
