Chapter 865 Monolith of Sun and Moon Sword

Ace was shocked by that ridiculous amount of time the voice just mentioned and also what it wanted to imply. He could feel the tension and worry in that voice.

'Can a God die? And that treasure he's talking about should be heaven's secret?' Ace wondered but didn't dare to ask this out loud. It was simply too astonishing.

Furthermore, he still wasn't sure if what he was hearing was even true and not just another misguiding sob story.

Unaware of Ace's thoughts, the voice continued gloomily, "This could only mean two things. First, he's completely dead or imprisoned somewhere where his godly abilities are fully suppressed. Whichever the case is, I haven't made a connection with him again since that day.

"Now, a Heaven's Stealer has appeared in such a place as well, and I've heard the Heaven's Stealer only appeared in places with world-class treasures. So, I know you are after that same treasure my true body hid here.

"And that's exactly what my purpose is as well. I'll let you be the Chosen One. Because the Chosen One was supposed to be the guardian of that exact treasure, and only he can know about its hidden location.

"Maybe my body had already predicted his ill fate and left behind his legacy for Chosen One, even his godly bloodline. Furthermore, I'm pretty sure you are not the only person who is after that treasure.

"The Union Leader, the traitor, he also knows about it, which means his background is not so simple either. His entire existence was a huge sham. If you hadn't appeared when you did, it might've been too late before he could control the entire Union.

"But you disordered it all up by destroying the two secret realms, and his last option was to capture SMSC. Yet, you take that away as well. So, he will now go after you with everything he had.

"However, I'm not holding a grudge against you. The Union of the Mortal Sky was just a branch built to protect the secret treasure. But my main body still left behind his bloodline and legacy in this place, which means he has sensed something amiss or dangerous to his life.

"So, all I ask of you is to find someone to inherit that legacy and bloodline and then take that person as your follower. That's all I want from you." The voice declared with clear sincerity.

Ace was surprised by this unexpected request. He was guessing that the voice would ask something excessive or have him do something. But all it requested was for him to find a successor for the Sun and Moon God Legacy and Bloodline.

'He said this Union is just a branch, which means the original in another heaven, and the Sun and Moon God should be a powerful being who could even sense such a disaster and leave his legacy behind.

'Furthermore, he was powerful enough to get his hand on the Heaven's Secret, and people might be after him for that exact reason. But then why did he leave it in this place and not use it himself? It's too confusing.

'But I still don't know if it's true or just deception. However, if it's turned out to be true, then I can't let just anyone get that legacy. I need to confirm it before I make a decision. The Heaven's Secret is more important, and if I can get it, I'll deal with the Heaven's Stealer Mission in one fell swoop.'

For Ace, this opportunity was too alluring just to let it slide, and he had nothing else to lose either. Furthermore, since the voice knows who he is, it should also know that it won't be easy to trick the Heaven's Stealer. Or maybe this was also the exact reason it didn't want to play any tricks.

But still, Ace has one more doubt he needed the answer to, "You could've asked anyone else, but why request a thief like me of all people? You can even choose anyone in the Union for this legacy. I'm pretty sure there are plenty to choose from, so why wait all these years, and why let your successor become my follower? You still don't know I'm the Heaven's Stealer. Moreover, if you knew about the Union Leader, why didn't you take action before?"

"Sigh... you can think of it as my narrow viewpoint and vanity. Truth be told, although I'm just a will, I'm still me, so I want my successor to be the best, and no one is qualified enough in the mortal sky.

"Well, except for, of course, you. Even if you're not a Heaven's Stealer, I can still tell you already have a bloodline as good as mine, but it feels somewhat suppressed. But I know better than to pry.

"I don't know how someone like you can appear in this place, but I would rather trust you with clear motives than trust those with ruses. Furthermore, I'd be overstepping my boundaries if I told you to abandon being a Heaven's Stealer since it's the path you choose.

"And I can't interfere with Union since I'm bound to this place. Besides, I have this feeling that you wouldn't be a bad choice to guide my successor on the path of success. So, what do you think?" The voice amiably questioned.

Ace was really speechless at this moment. He didn't know if there was something wrong with this voice since it was trusting him too much. Furthermore, he was shocked to hear about his sealed bloodline from the voice.

'My bloodline is as good as his? Then what is my origin, and why was I abandoned with a sealed bloodline?' A hint of anger flashed past Ace's eyes as this was a sore spot in his heart, and he didn't want to talk about it either.

The other thing was he could tell this guy was dead serious about making his successor his follower, which was even stranger.

'What are you hiding...' Ace's eyes narrowed with scrutiny since there were many loopholes in the voice's story.n)-0veLB1n

But this offer was really too good for him to reject it, and he wasn't losing anything. He didn't even have to keep his promise once he got Heaven's Secret. He'll be as good as gone.

"Alright, I agree with your proposal." Ace impassively nodded in agreement.

"Good! I know you will understand my plight." The voice stated with gratitude before it turned solemn, "Since you agreed, then let's not waste any more time. You still need to pass this final test before you can become the Chosen One, and the location of the secret will be revealed to you.

"You see the monolith? It's called the Monolith of Sun and Moon Sword. The sharp sensation you have experienced on seeing it is a trace of Sun and Moon Sword Intent left behind by my true body.

"In the final test to prove your qualification, you need to comprehend the Sun and Moon Sword Intent in that Monolith and then use the same sword intent to destroy it!"
