Eternal Thief

Chapter 1214: Cultivation Breakthrough!

Ace was surprised to see this prompt and asked with a frown, ”Why would I need to spend 10 million TP to integrate spirit fire with my cultivation heart? Couldnʼt I do it myself like everyone else?”

Aceʼs question was reasonable because he knew how cultivators absorb and integrate spirit fire with their own foundation. It was fairly simple since all one needed to do was accept the spirit fire into their inner space and then let it integrate with their cultivation foundation as long as the spirit fire couldnʼt overwhelm them.

Furthermore, this Demonic Black Spirit Fire wasnʼt naturally born. It was still in its seed state, the earliest growth stage of spirit fire, which means it didnʼt have its own intent or

spirituality yet. Spirit fire seeds were the easiest and most gentle to integrate, and cultivators actually preferred spirit fire seeds to mature ones.

Still, since the system brought this matter up, Ace wanted to confirm if there was something he was missing.

”[Host can indeed integrate this spirit fire seed on your own, but please remember that your cultivation foundation is Heavenly/Primordial, and you have already awakened Cultivation Heart.]

”[If you try to integrate like ordinary cultivators with flawed foundations, you wonʼt be able to utilize it thoroughly. Instead, you will end up using the core flames because your heavenly Qi wonʼt be able to support this Spirit Fire and will harm it.]

”[But if you used the thief points, the system will convert this spirit fire to integrate into your prime law heavenly Qi, and then you can use it like normal cultivators. This spirit fire will also turn something far more powerful in due time as you neutered it with your

heavenly/primordial spirit Q, and it can grow with your cultivation realm without needing any resources or spirit fire.]”

Ace was astounded to learn the implication behind the systemʼs words, and his heart raced as The quickly expressed, ”Then do it!”

[10,000,000 Thief Points have been deducted!]

[Thief Point(s): 8,530,900)

[Starting the integration process!]

The next moment, an ethereal dark blue chain shot out from Aceʼs glabella and directly penetrated the Spirit Fulcrum Lanternʼs base under Aceʼs suppressing gaze.

The Spirit Fulcrum Lantern lit up in runes, and the next moment, the dark blue chain yanked and pulled back, but this time, on its end was an ethereal pitch-black sphere emitting black flames like a black sun.

Ace felt an eerie aura from this sphere. Before he could sense it further, the chain suddenly curved into an arc and then penetrated Aceʼs chest with the black sphere.

Aceʼs body trembled as he felt extremely fiery and destructive might spread throughout it. His heart seemed to be lit on fire. His skin turned crimson as veins popped out all over it. At that moment, Ace felt like he was inside a magma pool.

But he endured the pain and didnʼt let out any scream and endured with his eyes closed, and he tried to cultivate the Architect of Thieving Heart, using his Qi to suppress the pain.

However, Ace was surprised when his Qi not only elevated his pain but also started to absorb that powerful might, and his cultivation increased rapidly.

It was unexpected but painful, but Ace didnʼt stop and continued since it was a rare chance to raise his cultivation.

Ace didnʼt know how much time had passed, but at some point, the pain was gone, and instead he felt something new within his heart, it was a part of him now. But he didnʼt break his cultivation state as his Qi was still becoming denser, and his heart was active.

After an unknown time, powerful ripples spread from Aceʼs body one after another, and Ace finally opened his eyes as a flash of dark lightning flickered past them.

”9-Star Ascension Soldier!” Ace pulled with a satisfied smile as this was really an unexpected surprise.

After integrating with Spirit Fire, he never expected to climb to the 9-Star Ascension Soldier Realm. Now, he was only a step away from reaching the 10-Star Ascension Soldier Realm before he could break into the Ascension Warrior Realm!

Nonetheless, Ace quickly calmed down and flipped his hand. The next moment, his heavenly Spirit Qi flowed out from his palm, and with a thought, the heavenly Spirit Qi turned into black flames, releasing destructive and fiery might.

Ace then looked at the notifications he received while still in a cultivation state.

=====

[Host has successfully integrated with the Demonic Black Spirit Fire Seed!]

[Congratulations, host, for comprehending the Fire Law at 100% and awakening its 1st Mystic Ability (Law Rule): Flame Ignition (Initial Stage: 7% Authority)]

[Congratulations, host, for comprehending the Destruction Law at 100% and awakening its 1st Mystic Ability (Law Rule): Destructive Spirit (Initial Stage: 9% Authority)]

[Congratulation, Host, your Prime Law: Darkness has reached 9% completion (9-Star Ascension Soldier)!]

[First Rule of Darkness Order: Desolationʼs authority has increased to 9%]

Ace was astounded when he saw he had awakened two mystic abilities of two completely different elemental laws that he had never comprehended before. Now, he finally understands why he feels two unknown abilities within, like the Sword Heart.

”Those ten million TP were well spent!ʼ Ace was ecstatic.

Not only did he get the growth-type spirit fire, but his cultivation also increased by a huge margin. Now, he has two new mystic abilities, and his prime law and its rule have also

strengthened.

Ace even had an itch to go out and test these abilities and his new prowess, but he knew he couldnʼt show off his actual skills, especially anything related to his Order of Darkness.

After calming down, he closed the system interface and stowed away the Spirit Fulcrum Lantern since it had served its purpose. He then moved on to the next thing, which was starting to refine weapons for his Universal Black Physique. He wanted to awaken the force before he entered the Ascension Warrior realm.

The first step was to integrate all the knowledge and techniques he had gathered, especially the forging technique he got from the Forger Abyss, the Star Refinement Hammer Strikes (Upper Ascension Sky Grade Vol.).

But before that, Ace wanted to use the Beast Law Channel Spell, a ritual to create space for oneʼs contracted magic beasts. After all, he got all these benefits because of Cyrusʼs core flames, so he wanted to complete his promise to the little guy first!

However, before he could start, a heavy voice filled with spirit Qi rang like a lightning bolt, ”Chief Forger Disciple George, come out and meet the Sect Law Enforcer Elder!”
