Eternal Thief

Chapter 1042 All Law Elixir

Ace’s thief sense was restricted outside the cavern entrance, but the moment he entered the passage, he suddenly felt he had entered another space with its unique laws, just like when he entered the trial abyss.

Furthermore, unlike the abyss, the laws here seem even more compatible, and his thief sense was suddenly fully released. But the biggest change was that he felt abundant Heavenly Qi in the atmosphere for the first time after he started cultivating. He was like a fist returning to water.

Usually, heavenly Qi didn’t exist in the atmosphere, and Ace had to use his cultivation technique to steal it. Then, with the help of the dark void, it would process and turn into heavenly darkness Qi, or the system would use the Qi materials to process them into heavenly darkness Qi and then release them into his body and soul.

But this was his first time experiencing the presence of heavenly Qi, so clearly, just like an ordinary cultivator would feel the worldly Qi.

‘According to the mission description, this place is either the heart of the mortal sky heaven or a part of it. And that cavern outside seemed to be the boundary between the world and the heavenly will domain. That might be why my thief sense couldn’t probe any pathways.

‘However, when I cross that boundary, my heavenly cultivation is fully released, and I’m no longer restrained, unlike that abyss. If I compare it, I have more advantage in heaven than in the abyss, or there’s another reason…’ Ace thought while he traveled opposite the flowing water.

The pathways were dark, and he couldn’t hear anything besides the raging water. The only consolation was that he had the fate map, and this passage was the only one without forbidden heavenly runes.

Ace found it quite strange why this passage was left alone. Was it purposely done and then given to the Skylar Giant Race as a gift for their loyalty and to store their treasures?

After flying for around ten minutes, Ace finally saw the light in this dark water tunnel, and the heavenly Qi became denser.

The moment Ace crossed the tunnel, he was astounded because he appeared in a vast opening filled with sunlight. A large river with crystal clear water was flowing from somewhere, and it was the source of water going into the dark tunnel. Around the river, there was a beautiful forest.

Ace also couldn’t believe his eyes; this clearly wasn’t the scenery he was expecting; it was like he had passed through another world.

‘The heavenly Qi here is simply too dense, yet those trees seem to be as ordinary as they could get. I don’t believe anything nurtured with the heavenly Qi would be ordinary. So, is this an illusion created by the grade-9 formation?’ Ace frowned before he activated his advanced thief’s vision, which was already at a high level.

He had used an Advanced-Grade Insight Pill on it, and now he can see through even grade-9 formations and illusions!

The surrounding scenery instantly changed; just as he expected, it was an illusion. The new scenery appeared utterly different in his view. It was a light golden landscape with a milky white waterfall between it, and the waterfall’s top was hidden behind cloudy golden fog.

When Ace saw the golden fog, his heart raced, ‘Heavenly Qi, and it’s not black!’

It was his first time seeing this color of heavenly Qi, and it appeared extremely pure and holy, completely opposite to the dark heavenly Qi that he was used to devouring.

Ace then focused on the milky waterfall and tried scoping his hand in it because, for some reason, he didn’t feel anything from it.

To his surprise, his hand passed through the milky water like an illusion, ‘It’s fake? But I think I have completely broken the illusion?’ He was confused.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter. I’m not here to find the mystery behind this place. In fact, since this place has heavenly Qi, if I made any commotion, I might alert a certain someone I don’t want to,’ Ace mused.

But his eyes shimmered with reluctance, ‘This is an excellent place for cultivation, even more so than that abyss. I had a feeling that if I comprehended the Heavenly Thunder Law here, I’d make tremendous progress, not to mention in other worldly laws I have yet to reach 99.99%.

‘Also, I still have Six Advanced-Grade Insight Pills, Three Intermediate-Grade Epiphany Pills, and that All-Law Elixir that will expose me to the laws of mortal sky heaven for one minute. I still don’t know how it is relevant, but after coming to the Sky Heart Plains, I have acquired new insights into laws, especially the weapon laws.

‘Furthermore, I want to find a way to break the forbidden runes. Since this place is used as a mere treasury vault, and I’m already here, I can use it to its full potential. I might be able to reap some unexpected benefits from a place called the heart of heaven….’

Ace’s eyes shone with desire. If he had been after the treasury and Mortal Emperor before, he completely changed his mind upon arriving at this place. He knew he needed to grasp every opportunity and focus on the bigger picture.

This place gave him a very peculiar feeling, so he wanted to cultivate it here before he moved to rob the treasury of the Skylar Giant Race. He might not even get another chance like this.

But before doing it, he needed to confirm it with the system as this place wasn’t something he could do as he pleased.

“System, can I enter seclusion in this place without alerting the Heavenly Will or the Heavenly Mortal Emperor?” He asked with anticipation.

“[This is the outermost part of the Mortal Sky Heaven Heart, you don’t need to worry.]”

00:36

“System, can I enter seclusion in this place without alerting the Heavenly Will or the Heavenly Mortal Emperor?” He With system confirmation, Ace was ecstatic before his eyes shone with resolution. ’15 months… I’ll take full advantage of this time and raise my skills and laws to the limit before apprehending the Mortal Emperor. Then, if nothing happened, I’ll use another 20 months to comprehend the forbidden heavenly runes and how to break them.’

The next moment, Ace quickly found a place close to the illusionary waterfall after ensuring he wouldn’t trigger anything. He already knew where the space treasury was, but he didn’t go there.

After sitting down and arranging the Heavenly Blank Array, one of the top nine heavenly arrays with the heavenly formation coins, to fully conceal himself, he ordered.

“System, release this All Law Elixir!”

The next moment, the system voice rang.

Ace’s eyes widened as if he hadn’t seen this ‘hidden effect’ in the description, and before he could inquire about it, they suddenly turned dazzling white like pearls!
