955 Making Trouble

”So, if we go far enough, weʼll eventually encounter this Forbidden Radiation Sea, right?” Ace asked for confirmation.

ʼStrange, why he didnʼt know about this? Could it be he never go in that place to search for ascension?ʼ Pen thought with uncertainty and felt even more bitter when he thought about how he had been madly searching for a way to ascend, yet this man didnʼt even need to.

Hiding his bitterness, he nodded, ”Yes. No one can miss it if they want to go forward.”

ʼCould it be the empire is really on the other side of this forbidden radiation sea? Although others might not be able to travel through it, it is completely different for me.ʼ Aceʼs eyes shimmered as he had already decided where to go with his main body if he didnʼt find any clues about the empire in five years.

”What about the sky? Have you ever tried to go into the sea of stars?” Ace curiously asked.

Pen nodded before he replied with a lingering fear, ”I had. But when I reached a certain height, I felt a strange presence, and the further I went an invisible pressure began to envelop me. At some point, I finally gave up because my instincts told me if I went any further, I might never be able to come back and die. The space above is really terrifying and cold.”

Aceʼs eyes narrowed. Now that he knew about the Heavenly Space Boundary, he knew there was some kind of barrier stopping others from going to another heaven and also restraining the upper heaven people from coming down.

Furthermore, to ascend, one needed an ascension altar or break the heavenly space boundary, which should be at the highest point in the space. As for his own ascension, he already knows because of the system.

At this point, Ace stopped prying further since he already got what he wanted and stated his last point, ”The third thing is I want to know about what is the forbidden boundary that you guys are protecting?”

Penʼs heart trembled as this was the biggest secret of his race, and only a few knew about its presence, yet this senior even knew about it.

He didnʼt dare to hide it and revealed, ”The forbidden boundary wasnʼt always there. It appeared around over fifty to sixty thousand years ago all of a sudden when the great split happened up there. The forbidden boundary used to be our raceʼs holy ground, and there was a secret realm filled with resources.

”However, one day, a storm appeared out of nowhere, and space shattered, creating chaos and everyone forced to flee. By the time things settled, we found the holy ground was enshrouded in darkness, and we couldnʼt enter or break past it no matter what we tried.

”Almost half of our power was wiped out, and we also lost our secret realm and many powerful techniques and inheritances left behind by the sages of our race. So, weʼve been searching for a way to regain that place, but to no avail.” Pen sighed ruefully at this point with a hint of sadness because he lost his father in the forbidden boundary that day when the disaster struck.

Aceʼs eyes shimmered with a peculiar glint as a thought suddenly surfaced in his mind. But he didnʼt dare to reveal it.

The forbidden boundary wasnʼt what he was thinking it to be, so he dropped any thought of going there and seeing a disaster if what he was thinking was true.

Pen suddenly thought of something before saying with uncertainty, ”My junior reports a strangeness. He said the darkness in the forbidden boundary seemed to be moving, and it all started nine years ago when the ten continents began to move on their own and except that there isnʼt anything strange.”

ʼDonʼt tell me, itʼs really what Iʼm thinking it to be?ʼ Aceʼs heart sank as he didnʼt want it to be true, but if it was, he really had to flee.

”Alright, show me those records, and then Iʼll give tell you how you can ascend.” Ace solemnly stated.

Penʼs eyes flashed with elation as he quickly began to move while Ace followed him. They both cross some hidden pathways without anything protecting them, and the entire place is like a maze filled with formations.

If Ace was alone, it mightʼve taken him some time to search through this place, even with Live Fate Mapʼs help. Nonetheless, tricking Pen was the easiest, and he had already got a clue about his target.

Now, he just wanted to search through those records just to be sure that he was on the right track or if he had missed something.

The forbidden library wasnʼt as large as he imagined it would be. But it was filled with jade scrolls and many ancient scrolls and records. Without hesitation, he begins to read through all of them, and Pen accompanies him like a junior.

Although this was one of the strongest people alive in this world, he was a simpleton and worshiped strength more than anything. Even if he was arrogant, he was willing to bow his head to get the method to raise his power. This was his only obsession, and Ace couldnʼt help but admire it.

So, after half a day, Ace had memorized everything, and he left with a flabbergasted Pen.

Once they returned to Penʼs cultivation chamber, Ace looked at him, which made Pen uneasy and somewhat anticipated.

In the end, Ace decides to give him clues about the ascension, ”You really do me a favor by giving me all that information without asking for anything, and I like this kind of attitude the most. You are very decisive about your goal and willing to pay any price for it. I like this spirit.”

Pen humbly bowed with a tingle of happiness, ”It was nothing worth mentioning, senior. Those worldly possessions canʼt compare to seniorʼs favor.”

Ace smiled before he meaningfully said, ”Alright, Iʼll give you an important piece of information about ascension. Find the Ascension Altar, and youʼll get what you want.”

Suddenly, a deviant-like smile appeared on his face as he couldnʼt help but make trouble for the Union Lord and added a lie, ”Oh, and Iʼve sent you to get rid of the Union Lord because it comes to my attention he has the Ascension Altar. What you will do with this information is up to you now…”

Ace didnʼt know how accurate his lie was, and he had unknowingly put a massive target on Union Lord because Pen wasnʼt the only one looking for ascension, for the Sea Kings Federation wasnʼt the only power in hidden in the endless sea!

Pen trembled when he heard it and was about to ask something when he noticed the Senior was already gone, making him shudder in fear.

In the end, he took a deep breath to calm down and process what was just revealed to him, killing intent flashed past his eyes, ”So, senior wanted to help me from the start. No wonder he sent him to kill that day, so heʼs hiding this Ascension Altar. Well, I guess I have to take this war seriously now and seek some help. Bastard, you dare to stand between me and my fortune. You are asking to be killed!”

From this day onward, the Federation President suddenly made a massive comeback and took full command of the war against the land dweller, shocking and rejuvenating the entire Sea Kings Federation!
