Eternal Thief

Chapter 1133  True Path of Body and Soul!

After rearranging the information about the Heaven Stealer Cultivation Technique, Ace finally understood what the system was talking about.

The Architect of Thieving Heart was all about cultivating the Qi and Soul while strengthening the Cultivation Heart. The Cultivation Heart also contained the inner space, which is now called the inner world.

He needs to absorb the Heavenly Spirit Qi or Primordial Spirit Qi into his soul and comprehend the prime law. Thereby, he expands the inner world with the prime law and assimilates other auxiliary laws until it becomes a real world.

Furthermore, his inner world's prime law was the Darkness, which was also the attribute of his inner world, and calling the Darkness World wouldn't be wrong. The First Realm of the Ascension Realm was called the Law Soul Assimilation.

Although the name of this realm was different from what Avos had told him, the essentials of this realm were almost the same. He needs to turn his soul into a Law Soul and assimilate it with his Law Body, turning his soul into Primordial Spirit, and the progress will be measured by 1~100% from 1 to 10 Stars! Furthermore, Ace also noticed a peculiar part about the Architect of Thieving Heart. Although he needed to cultivate like a normal cultivator by accumulating spirit Qi, he could progress faster by simply doing thieveries!

This means that even if he had lost the EXP and SP bars, as long as he performed high-level thieves, his cultivation would progress at an alarming rate—maybe even faster than with EXP and SP.

The biggest advantage was he no longer needed to search something like Elemental Orbs to break into a higher realm. This advantage almost made Ace cry with joy.

However, things weren't so simple with the Universal Ascension Black Physique. Because this technique was completely different from the Spirit Qi cultivation technique.

First, there were prerequisites just to start cultivating this technique, and just as the system said, he completed all of them. The prerequisites were his Cultivation Heart, Fantastic Physique, Fantastic Meridian, and Bloodline, which should all belong to a single Absolute Element.

Although Ace didn't know what an Absolute Element was, he mused that Darkness was one such element. Moreover, the requirement system didn't mention that his body had to be as sturdy as a forbidden elemental grade weapon (Grade-10)! Even though Ace didn't know if he met this requirement or not, since the system didn't mention it and give him a go, it could only mean that his body met this requirement as well.

After all, if Ace thought about it clearly, his body had always been quite strong because of constantly undergoing the baptism of heavenly thunder. However, this was the easiest to accomplish because of the system because after comes the part about turning his body into a real weapon, capable of destroying reality itself! This was the true essential of the Universal Physique!

According to the Universal Ascension Black Physique, his body will be measured by Weapon Grades of Ascension Realm!

To turn his body into an Ascension Grade-1 weapon, he needs 99 Upper-Ascension Grade-1 refined weapons with Darkness affinity or equivalent materials with said affinity.

Afterward, he needs a powerful cauldron to contain all the weapons or materials and, finally, a Spirit Fire with Darkness Affinity to melt them into a liquid form.

However, the most important part came next, which also revealed why the system had told him that this process would be inhumanly painful.

The final part was that he needed to be in that cauldron, absorb those weapons or materials into his body, and refine it with the Universal Ascension Black Physique technique.

Nonetheless, the only relief was that the Universal Ascension Black Physique was completely irrelevant to the Architect of Thieving Heart. This means that now, he is walking on the true paths of body and soul, and he will only have to undergo Heavenly Punishment for the Architect of Thieving Heart.

However, this doesn't mean the Universal Physique didn't have its own tribulations; in fact, if he survived all the way, there would only be a single tribulation once he refined his body into the Forbidden Ascension Grade (Grade-10).

But there wasn't any information about this tribulation, just a steep warning, so Ace decided to put this on the back of his mind and only care about it once the time arrived. After all, he was still far away from reaching the forbidden rank.

Lastly, once Ace started cultivating the Universal Ascension Black Physique, he would awake something unique to true body cultivators: "Force" and would be able to use a single until of it at Ascension Grade-1! Unlike the Spirit Qi used by regular cultivators, Force represented the raw destructive power of the body itself. One unit of Force could shatter mountains and level terrains, with a single unit packing the punch of a 1 Megaton bomb.

Just thinking about being submerged in molten metal while refining his body with such immense power sent chills down Ace's spine. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Yet, the thought of his enemies. trembling before his might. Steeling his resolve, he gritted his teeth, determined to endure the pain and unlock the true potential of the Universal Ascension Black Physique!

As for the Black Tempest and Dark Revelation spells, they were actually enhancement-type spells with Early, Intermediate, Advanced, and Perfect proficiency stages.

The former was a movement spell. By using it, his overall speed will be increased from the early stage five times to the perfect stage twenty times, while the latter was an optical spell. By utilizing it, any optical spell or ability's power will be increased by 5 to 20 times as well with the same proficiency stages!

'I need to quickly find Cyrus before starting to dive into my cultivation technique and these spells. Furthermore, now that my soul cultivation technique is directly connected with my thievery, I should see my thief panel. There is still some new stuff that the system didn't fully explain!'

Without hesitation, Ace opened the thief panel!
