Eternal Thief

Chapter 1238  Trouble Within!

At this moment, he had already left the forbidden region without a hitch, and he was far faster than the last time because of his increased cultivation.

Once he felt he was out of the danger zone, Ace decided to stop in the forest to finalize all his gains. The first thing he did was accept the Forbidden Spell Prime Law Phantom, the reward he got from the system after he entered the Ascension Warrior realm.

Instantly, the knowledge of the spell started to flood his mind, and soon, he refined it all. Once he grasped the entire spell, a hint of shock appeared in his eyes.

The first thing about this Forbidden Spell was that it didn\'t have any grade or proficiency levels. Instead, its prowess solely depended on the power of his inner world. Furthermore, as a forbidden spell, it has a tremendous cost to use, which his entire Qi reserves!

Nonetheless, this Forbidden Spell was still worth the price because it can summon a phantom of his inner world outside. Not only will it increase his power by ten times, but it will also suppress anyone around him, depending on the difference in the cultivation realm.

Ace never expected the forbidden spell from the system to be so overbearing. He knew that with his prime law, which originated from the Darkness Order, and his world being a primordial world, the suppression of his enemies would be massive! The most exciting part for Ace was that he only needed to cast it once he learned it, which was quite easy since this forbidden spell only required him to create the Spell Runes with his Qi and create the structure of the forbidden spell. The time of the cast also depends on his proficiency in casting the spell runes. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Although he had never seen or heard about the \'spell runes\' before, upon reading them in the forbidden spell, he instantly knew these runes originated from the Heavenly Runes as well!

It was like casting a formation with a thought and a novel concept for Ace, which also provided him with new insights into his rune crafting. He became even more curious about what the runes could do, especially after seeing them being used in the Heavenly Punishment! Afterward, he inspects his inner world. Now that it is finally connected with his cultivation heart, he can see the things within. The inner world is filled with dark primordial Qi, with the law of darkness holding supreme while the law of creation complements it.

Furthermore, the runes he had absorbed from the Law Destruction Thunder also seemed to have a strange yet harmonious effect on his primordial world, as if they were nurturing it until it finally bloomed from its seed state. After admiring this mystical yet unfathomable phenomenon, he saw the Enteral Thief Fate Compass basking in his Primordial Spirit Qi above the dark void in the center of his inner world space, and he could feel its power increasing again.

Another thing he noticed was that a section of his inner world seemed to be separated yet connected with his world like a secret realm. It was precisely the Primordial Beast Space, and it seemed to have strengthened as well.

Furthermore, Ace observed the two small creatures in his beast space, who seemed to be sleeping yet were both wrapped in his Primordial Spirit Qi like ethereal cocoons. They were none other than Cyrus and Chuchu.

Cyrus seemed to have fallen into a hibernation once he entered his beast space. With Chuchu\'s consent, he let her enter his beast space as well, and the moment she appeared, she also fell into a deep sleep while absorbing his Primordial Spirit Qi.

Although Ace was expecting this, it was still quite unexpected, and he knew they weren\'t in any danger. In fact, he could feel they were undergoing some kind of metamorphosis, and once they awakened, they would be powerful!

He even considered raising more magic beasts in his primordial beast space since it was massive, and Cyrus and Chuchu didn\'t seem to have much effect on him, no matter how much Qi they absorbed. But then Ace dropped the idea since it was too much for him to raise more magic beasts, especially if their personalities were Cyrus. If Cyrus had made more friends like Chuchu, he\'d have thought about it at that time.

Ace was about to retract his sense from his inner world when he suddenly sensed something else being nurtured by his Primordial Heavenly Qi. The first thought in Ace\'s mind was his sword heart, but he knew the sword heart was a special independent existence directly connected to the heart; it had nothing to do with his inner world space.

His Spirit Fire was the same since it is also directly imbued in his cultivation heart, into his foundation of cultivation. When Ace tracked his source, he reached the place where the Dark Void was again, and he finally saw what it was. Before, he didn\'t see it because it was hidden right under the Dark Void.

It was a small crystal bead with black ethereal patterns. A dark, ethereal flame surrounded this bead while his Primordial Spirit Qi was slowly being absorbed by it. It was very vague and almost untraceable, and if Ace hadn\'t opened his inner world space, he wouldn\'t have noticed it at all.

But it wasn\'t the important part because the moment Ace saw the bead, his expression warped with disbelief and a hint of fear, "I-it couldn\'t be…" Just as Ace thought he was hallucinating, a charming yet playful voice rang in his head, "Fufufufu… you finally opened your Inner World and noticed your master, my dear Steward~!" \'Mother*ucker…how?!\' Ace cursed in his mind when he heard that familiar voice because that crystal bead was none other than the Soul Resurrection Bead that he had given to that mysterious woman in the Primordial Path of Ascension in exchange for her help to send him to the end of the path!
