Eternal Thief

“Is this even possible?” A dwarf figure questioned with uncertainty. The Union Lord nodded, “As long as you’re as strong as the Union founder, anything is possible.” “Who was the union founder, and what was he doing in this place?” The devil asked. “A legendary character enshrouded in mystery. His traces are everywhere. Even in our place, he left a part of his legacy there as well.” The Union Lord stated matter-of-factly, “But the mortal sky was different. I stumbled upon an extremely ancient ruin in a secret realm, and only then did I find clues about his presence in the mortal sky. Here, he left something that had caused an unimaginable war in a bygone era. That war shattered the sky and grind the earth. There was only a small detail about it. “But I concluded that the Union founder probably left on the verge of death despite being the final winner of that war. So, he uses some heaven-defying method to enter the Mortal Sky and then hide that item and his entire inheritance when he finds the Union. “After a very long research and spending countless hours, I finally found this place. But he was too vicious and careful. Not only did he rigid the ascension altar, but he even made sure that no one could use it to ascend or find its location. “Furthermore, he also destroyed any legacy or inheritances related to space. There was a very, very strong bloodline of the magic beast related to the space here, but they were gone in a single night, never to be found again. Who do you think did it? If that tribe were present, it wouldn’t be the foreign races’ turn to rule this place, nor could union match them. “He flawlessly rid of every single obstacle that could possibly harm the Union. Although it appeared that he was protecting his legacy, I know better; that kind of existence’s scheme runs as deep as the abyss. He was preparing this all for something.” Union Lord’s expression grew solemn, “Still, he might’ve never expected someone like me to stumble upon this kind of secret. But I had to admit, even for me, it took too many years to come this close to acquiring that treasury he hid here.” Killing intent surfaced in his eyes as he gritted his teeth, “Yet…yet a lowly thief came and destroyed everything. Not only did that bastard force me to reveal myself, but he even took the only clue about that treasure with him! If I don’t find him, then we won’t be able to leave this place!” Clavus suddenly asked, “If that’s the case, then why do you think that thief was able to infiltrate the Union so easily that it took even you countless years? Furthermore, when I tried to go back, I stumbled upon the union. Is it also related to the ascension altar?” Union Lord sighed and nodded, “I have no idea how that thief was able to enter without raising any alarm. But you are right about your theory. You were probably the only one who had a way to break through the eighth realm, and as you came closer and closer, you were able to sense the ascension altar. “In the end, that was a trap of the union founder, and you ended up like the others the moment you crossed into the union. I have to admit, whoever the Union founder was, he was probably a deity. “As for you nine, you were all sent here to colonize the mortal sky but ended up trapped here.” Union Lord sneered disdainfully, “Although I was the one who tricked you all, I just want you all to know that I had no choice in this matter.” A huntress narrowed her pretty eyes, “Then how do you explain the foreign races’ entry into the mortal? How were they able to enter the mortal sky without being dragged into the union first?” Everyone nodded as this was extremely strange. They all knew about the past of the golden sky world. The Union Lord chuckled with derision, “Really now? As expected of ignorant sects who don’t even know the immensity of heaven and earth. You guys had stumbled upon a brief weakness in the heavenly space boundary, and your seniors just decided to throw you in? You deserve what happened to you all!” “Hmph, don’t try to act all mighty like you’re better than us. You’re just some vagabond who was able to stumble upon an opportunity, or do you think only you had the method to enter here like this? If all those true powers knew what was hidden in this place, they would’ve long taken it. They didn’t need to scheme for myriad years. They just thought of this place as barren wastelands, nothing else.” The devil mocked harshly, “Now answer the damn question. Don’t forget, we are still stronger than you, and without us, you can forget about catching that thief or acquiring that treasure!” “Hmph.” The Union Lord grunted coldly as his eyes flashed with killing intent before they turned to normal as if nothing had happened, “It’s simple: those guys were able to appear here because they didn’t belong to our lands in the first place. From the start, they are the aborigines of the mortal sky heaven.” “Wait.” Clavus was shocked, “So you’re saying the mortal sky heaven is not just comprised of Gold Sky World?” This was a shocking discovery to all of them, as they had never thought of it like this at all. The Union Lord sneered, “What you think? Is heaven only comprised of a continent? Don’t make me laugh. This wasn’t even compared to 1/1000000th of our heaven. When did a ‘heaven’ become so tiny? “The truth is the Mortal Sky is 1/1000th of our heaven, and it’s mostly covered in water. The endless sea is also a part of mortal sky heaven, and it’s large beyond your imagination. There should be multiple continents like this one, but they are too far away from each other, and the endless sea is extremely dangerous for such a journey, even for someone like us, because there is too much Qi radiation. These people haven’t even discovered a way to travel in the Qi radiation yet, so they are still far away from knowing about this fact. “This separates myriad races from each other, and they rarely stumbled upon each other. The various races were able to come here by only a fluke, and they thought they were from another world or even higher heaven. What an ignorant bunch they are. “Just think about it: if they were from our place, do they need to scheme for the eighth realm cultivation method or beg us? They’re simply delusional to think of themselves on the same level as us. “If I’m not wrong, they might’ve stumbled upon an extremely ancient teleportation formation and unknowingly able to lock on this place’s coordinates because of the presence of the ascension altar. They were just lucky, nothing else.” Everyone was tongue-tied at this moment because they really never thought that this was the case despite their backgrounds. It’s just that they always looked down on the mortal sky and never thought much about it. But now, they knew that this place was still far from reaching its full potential!.
