"NO! How is this possible?! You can't just throw away your soul and then remain alive… this must be an illusion brought by the technique… it has to be… I must remain calm…" The feeble old voice started to mumble frantically.
Ace couldn't help but sneer, "Yeah, and it'll be over very soon!"
At this moment, the dark blue chain suddenly flickered, and the fake true soul hovering in front of Ace suddenly started to move, guided by the chain. It was going toward the black mirror!
"Ahhhh… what is this… noooo…" Horrible screams started to ring as the fake true soul was getting closer to the broken mirror.
Because Moon Fiend King remaining soul was exhausted and entered the fake true soul for a chance to rebirth, and he also sacrificed the treasure spirit, the tower, as well as the broken mirror was now ownerless.
Even if he had another method, he couldn't do anything because of his current state. He had never thought that after all those preparations and making this place absolutely safe, he would fall into such a situation.
The silliest part was he didn't even know how and where he made a mistake and got tricked by an ant-like existence. Usually, it was he who trick and robbed others of their lives, but now the tables were turned on him!
"Nooo… please spare me… I'll be your slave and do anything. I'll give you my treasures, EVERYTHING! If you kill me, y-you…ahhhhh… YOU CAN'T ESCAPE FROM HERE…!" Moon Fiend King used everything he had to say those words.
He knew the immense sense of crisis was not fake or an illusion, but it was all real, and he was somehow losing his consciousness, not it was more accurate to say his consciousness was getting torn apart and ingesting into this true soul and he'll die at any moment if it didn't stop!
So, he could only try the last desperate resort, which was to submit and keep his life before making a comeback. He knew as long as the other party was tempted by his treasures, he would have a chance to claim it all back.
But alas, Ace wasn't in a bit tempted as he chuckled, "After you're dead, everything you have will be mine." His eyes turn icy cold at this moment, "And even if I can't get anything, you have to die because it needed to be done for her sake!"
At this moment, the chain had already pushed the black true soul into the broken mirror as the Moon Fiend King's blood-curdling screams died down. No one know if he had heard Ace's last words or not, but it didn't matter at all.
The corporeal chain suddenly yanked within the broken mirror as inky black mist suddenly emitted from it and started to envelop the broken mirror.
Thereafter, the broken mirror, for the first time, made 'hmm' sounds as it started to vibrate crazily and greedily started to absorb the dark mist.
Ace was astonished because the broken mirror suddenly started to mend as all those cracks started to close.
System's voice rang at this moment, "[Please place the cocoon under the mirror!]"
Ace was quickly snapped out of it, and without hesitation, he waved his sleeve, and the next moment a black cocoon filled with red markings that were pulsing at every second, appeared right under the mending mirror.
A rare gentleness appeared with Ace's cold eyes as he looked at the pulsing cocoon as mumbled, "I'm waiting…"
The moment the cocoon appeared, the mending mirror seemed to sense something as it suddenly released a strange aura, and the surrounding space started to twist, and it started to pull away from the chain; it wanted to escape!
But the dark blue chain didn't even flinch as it merely yanked again before the aura around the mirror deflated, but the mirror started to struggle even more, but to no avail.
The next moment, the dark chain suddenly pulled the mirror down toward the black cocoon, and it struggled even more strongly.
Ace watched the mirror struggle in astonishment, "It's afraid of the cocoon? No, it's afraid of existence within the cocoon!"
"[Yes. The Abyssal Bloodline can devour anything and everything. There's no escape from it, especially for others with weak Abyssal Bloodline. Because this will make the Abyssal Bloodline even stronger and make it evolve to new heights.]
"[That's why the Abyssal Bloodline is abhorred and feared by everyone. But this will also make it equally alluring. Because an Abyssal Being is a top-tier treasure that even Gods will compete over!]
"[Right now, the Void Abyssal Devil bloodline has been activated, it is showing its natural instinctive reaction because it knew it won't be able to escape for being devour and that's why it wanted to escape!]"
Ace's expression wrapped when he heard this, and couldn't help but scowled, "First, you mean to say the Abyssal Bloodline is like an extremely rare treasure that absolutely can't be revealed?
"Second, a weak abyssal bloodline can devour a strong bloodline, making the one who is devouring it stronger? Didn't this mean those who are with stronger abyssal bloodline or those who know about its value would go after it?
"This might put her life in extreme danger at some point. You should've warned me beforehand!"
"[Host never asked. Besides, the Shadow Abyssal Devil is not easy to find or killed! They are inherently Machiavellian and cruel as well as their Blood Lineage, what you called the Blood Memory Heritage, is their biggest advantage!]"
Ace was again flabbergasted by this information and calmed down after hearing the system praising someone for the first time. He felt quite assured since the System won't lie to him.
But the next words of the system made him frown.
"[But the host has to keep her within Living Thief's Space once you exit this tower. At least until her cultivation reached Law Comprehension Realm!]"
Ace's heart sank to rock bottom as he instantly refuted, "Law Comprehension Realm?! Do you mean the Eighth and final realm of Mortal Sky Heaven?! But why?!"
