Eternal Thief



At this moment, Ace was only a step away from climbing the 1500th stairstep. The white cloud was also a few inches away from him, and now he could feel a terrifying oppressive might from that cloudy white mist. 

'The formation here is probably at the same level as the imperial demon domain over even stronger. No wonder this entire area is a black-fate location. I have to be more careful once I enter their core area.' Ace thought calmly. 

However, his outward appearance was now haggard, as his face was pale, and he was filled with sweat as if he would fall down right at this moment. With gritted his teeth and his eyes filled with great mirth, Ace took the final step while trembling. 

No one would believe that he was just acting as long as Ace won't reveal it himself.

With extreme difficulty, he pulled himself onto the 1500th step, and the moment both his steps landed on the stone stairstep, Ace felt all the Qi radiation pressure vanish. 

The very next moment, the cloudy mist suddenly churned and directly encased Ace's figure. Ace was startled for a moment, but he didn't feel any danger, so he didn't try to resist. 

His vision suddenly blurred, and when he regained clarity, he found himself standing in a great bright hall filled with white pillars on both sides, and a hundred meters ahead of him was a bright passage. 

Before he could gauge his surrounding, an ethereal voice, which was the same voice he heard at the entrance, resounded in the great hall. 

"Participant #4,349, congratulation on passing the entrance trial of Sun and Moon Sword Union!

"Participant #4,349 had broken the record of passing the entrance trial within 11 hours. You will be rewarded with 10,000 Union Merits and an Upper-Grade Mortal Skill!

"Hold your union token in your hand to receive your new identity and rewards!" 

Ace was startled for a moment before he did as he was told and took out his identity token, which he had 'created' after manipulating some mortal domain union members. 

The moment the token appeared, a golden light suddenly descended out of nowhere and shone on the gray token. Under Ace's astonished eyes, the gray token suddenly started to turn golden, and the plain surface also started to engrave with a white blazing sun crest just like the one he saw on the young man in blue robes. 

Right under the white sun crest, white words started to appear, 'Union Student (White).' 

But it didn't just end there. After the identity token's transformation was done, a golden storage ring slowly descended within the golden light and landed right above the golden token. 

The voice rang again, "Your Union Merits are transferred into your Union Token as well as information about your new identity with a miniature map of the Sun Domain can be accessed through your token as long as you pour your soul Qi into your Union Token.

"Your union token now has other functions, and the details are all in there. Don't lose your Union Token, or you'll be punished heavily. 

"Moreover, this 8-Star Storage Ring is a reward for passing the trial. Your Union Student Robes, Flying Sword, and 10 Soul Refinement Pills are also within this storage ring. 

"Lastly, you can gain access to the Union Sun Domain Library through your token and claim your Upper-Grade Mortal Skill, as well as the Second Realm Soul Cultivation Manual and a Lower Grade Mortal Skill for passing the entrance test.

"Now, you may rest here before the entrance trial end, and only then can you leave this entrance hall!"

The voice vanished and no longer bothered Ace. 

Ace was quite surprised by how resourceful the union was. Without wasting time, he quickly poured Qi into the golden token, and a projection appeared filled with information about the union. 

Just like that, time passed, and on the last day, another person entered the hall. It was the pale skin devil youth with pale gray wings and a small pointy tail. He almost looked like a skeleton and was on the verge of collapsing from exhaustion. 

However, when his gray eyeballs landed on the white hair human who was sitting cross-legged in meditation, he couldn't help but grit his teeth in humiliation. 

It was supposed to be his spotlight since it was his third try, and he was very confident about passing, but somehow this guy appeared out of nowhere and, like a storm, passed the entire trial in less than half a day. 

Furthermore, he was s human who they all looked down upon. But the fact was clear and right in front of his eyes. 

Ace has already changed into gray union robes with a white sun crest on his chest, and he has already 'recovered.' He was just waiting for the trial to be over so he could exit this place. 

Although the passage was right in front of him, he didn't dare to try to leave and waited as the voice said. 

He didn't open his eyes despite sensing the newcomer's arrival. That was simply worth nothing in his eyes. He had seen many devils in these past two months in the mortal domains, so now he was no longer fascinated by the number one race of this world. 

They were just like other races, working for the union like laborers, so they seemed as superior as they were in the ten continents. They only have a strong body and bloodline heritage. 

But for some reason, the devils didn't seem to gain access to their famous blood heritage and were like any other race without any prior knowledge of the cultivation system. 

Because if they could gain access to their blood heritage, those devils won't be mere servants. Ace was collecting information on these races, especially devils, and he was quite startled when he found the union could even control something like the devil's blood heritage. 

But he wasn't too sure about it since the only devil he had ever contacted before coming into the union was his wife, who was now leagues above these devils. 

He also noticed that the devils had too many similarities with demons, and the only difference was their wings and tails. Still, they were no longer as mysterious as before in Ace's eyes, just like demons. 

He was only interested in the union now and how to get out of this place.

The same ethereal voice rang again and alerted the devil of his benefits like Ace. 

The devil was instantly thrilled, and after getting his storage ring, he didn't approach Ace and only gave him a cold glare before he sat beside another pillar to recover. 

Just when half an hour remained before the end of the trial, another person entered the entrance hall. It was another brown skin female devil as she was also on the verge of losing consciousness. 

She only glanced at Ace before she quickly received the storage ring and sat beside the pale skin devil, and started recovering. 

When only a minute was left, two more figures entered the hall. They were none other than the brother and sister of the Atlas family. 

Those devils opened their eyes, and shock surfaced in their eyes when they saw two more humans made it into this place. They knew better than anyone that it'd been over six years since any humans had passed the trial, much less three of them passing altogether. 

Because every time someone successfully ascended the ascension stairway, a huge celebration was held in every race. 

The brother and sister were extremely haggard as they held each other hand to spot themselves. 

But their eyes were filled with mad resolve, and when they saw the white hair human sitting ahead, respect and elation replaced their exhaustion.

They were only here because they were following this unknown guy's footsteps. If Ace hadn't continued to climb despite his fumbling figure, they were not planning on taking this risk at all. 

But they did and somehow passed! 

Just when they received their rewards and were about to go to Ace to speak with him, the ethereal voice rang again. 

"The entrance trial has been ended. You all may leave the entrance hall!"
