Eternal Thief

Chapter 727 Live Fate Map (Treasure Blueprint Mode)

Ace looked at the fate map, which appeared blank and black, which was proof of this placeʼs danger. 

When he activated the Unseen Thief ability of his mask, the black area turned to a light shade of crimson, but no terrain appeared.

But Ace was surprised when he noticed the compass needle direction, which was surprisingly pointing in the west direction of this place. As for the reason for his surprise, it was because, from the moment he had entered the Union, this compass needle had never pointed at anything except the peak of Sun Mountain.

”Moira, is this compass arrow leading me into this realm? Is this the final destination?” Ace quickly asked with anticipation, as he knew every time he followed this compass arrow, he would end up getting exactly what he wanted. 

”Hard to say, but I think you are very close to discovering the end of this compass arrow. I can feel it.” Moiraʼs answer was subtle, but it was enough for Ace to be extremely spirited! 

”I knew I could count on you, Moira.” Ace praised her. 

”Iʼm happy to help anytime!” Moiraʼs voice also contained happiness as she replied in her childish voice. 

He merely chuckled before he stopped wasting his Qi and disabled the map and his ability since he didnʼt have to use any of them at this moment since he was still in the middle of nowhere and followed the west direction.

As Ace moved to the west, he felt the heat in his surrounding getting even more absurd, and he was now sweating like crazy. 

ʼIs this the Yang element the SMSC told me about? Donʼt tell me without that technique. I wonʼt be to move much deeper into this place?ʼ Ace grimaced as he took out a storage bottle filled with tons of wine as he didnʼt have water and started to drink because he was feeling thirsty for real. 

Even the Qi radiation couldnʼt make him feel this heat or thirsty, but this environment was something else.

ʼI canʼt save Qi here, it seemed.ʼ Ace thought as he finally started using his heavenly Qi layer to cover his body, and that heat finally turned down quite a bit. 

Ace then decided to see the jade scrolls while moving in the west direction since he still had time, and he was now really curious about this Yin Yang Mortal Sword Manual, which he wasnʼt interested in the least before. 

As for the Upper Sky Breaker Sword Art, he was planning to study it after he was done with both realms because he knew the Sword Stealing Time would activate with it, and he didnʼt want to waste a second of it. 

Right now, he was going to focus on the mission since he only has a limited time of one year here and one year in the Moon Secret Realm. 

Ace first peered into the golden jade scroll, and he instantly met a restriction. According to the restriction, he needed to hold the Sun and Moon Seeker Token if he wanted to peer into it. 

This restriction was just like the Sky Sword Manual Jade Scroll. 

After Ace complied, he was finally able to see the information and was surprised when he saw the contents. 

This was not the Yin Yang Sword Mortal Manual but only the Yang Sword Mortal Manual from Qi Soul Gates Realm to Platinum Soul River Core Realm. 

However, Ace was surprised when he saw the cultivation method. The cultivator of this technique in the first realm, one needed to first temper their body with pure Yang Qi (both Soul and Martial), which thereby temper the dormant True Soul (Soul Space) into half Yang True Soul. 

But they canʼt break into the other realm unless they repeat the process with the Yin Mortal Sword Manual and make the other half of the True Soul into Yin True Soul. 

Once this process is complete, the cultivator will be able to create True Yin Yang Soul in the Foundation Building Realm. What is even more astonishing part was the user will gain an innate ability called Yin Yang Soul Control at the Foundation Building Realm. 

Ace knew what that meant. This Cultivation Technique could grant abilities like the systemʼs cultivation techniques. Although there was only one ability written in the entire first half of the manual, it doesnʼt make the cultivation technique any less precious. 

Moreover, what truly drew Aceʼs attention was to enter the Soul River Realm; the Half Sword Element Intent of Yin and Yang was mandatory!

This was not just one-half sword element intent but two elements! 

But it was actually possible with the True Yin Yang Soul because the user can easily comprehend the Sword Intent of both Yin and Yang Elements with this technique. It was the biggest effect of this technique. 

ʼA true Sword Cultivation Technique!ʼ This was the conclusion Ace reached after he read and memorized both parts of the entire technique. 

Unlike the jade scroll of the sky sword, the information on these jade scrolls was easily rememberable. 

However, what was raging through Aceʼs mind at this moment was, ʼAlthough I canʼt cultivate this technique or gain this ability, I should be able to comprehend Yin and Yang Sword Intent from it. Isnʼt the whole point of this technique to cultivate these two elementsʼ sword intents? 

ʼAlthough I had never tried this before, I never acquired this kind of Sword Cultivation Technique either, nor did I have my two sword cores. Who knows, I might be able to discover smoothing new about them, like the Sword Stealing Time…ʼ 

The more Ace thought in this direction, the more his eyes brightened as he wanted to try it out right now, but he knew this was not the time to absorb into the study. So, he stowed away the two jade scrolls reluctantly.

Half an hour passed since Ace was moving in the west direction, and except for the heat, nothing was changed. 

At this moment, the system voice finally rang, which Ace had also been waiting for all this time.

Ace was gobsmacked when he read about the Treasure Blueprint Mode, and when he was snapped out of his daze, he almost laughed out loud in relish when he saw the new treasure blueprint information. 

However, the system was still not done, as it left one last notification.
