Chapter 866 The Rewards and New Prerequisites

Chapter 866 The Rewards and New Prerequisites

Ace frowned behind his mask as he looked at the Monolith of Sun and Moon Sword, 'So that's why I was so ill at ease. But then, why are my sword cores reacting so differently? Did that Sun and Moon Sword Intent excite them?'

Ace was somewhat confused; his sword cores were far from ordinary, and he couldn't just ignore them because he didn't understand them. Since he now knows what that monolith was and his sword cores were reacting strangely, he will find out soon enough.

Still, he couldn't bring himself to trust the voice that claimed to be the will of the Sun and Moon God. This could be anything trap for all he knows. So, first, Ace needed to see the next Heaven's Stealer Mission requirement, and only then would he make his next move.

"I understand, but first, I need some privacy to rest. I'm pretty exhausted after running so long." Ace impassive said.

"Of course, you can stay here as long as you want. This is the only place where only the union inheritor can enter. When you're fully recovered, you may begin your training, and I'll do my best to guide you." The voice replied.

Ace nodded, "Thank you for your help."

"There's no need, we are helping each other."

Ace then directly took out a grade-8 and activated its concealment function before using another one. Then, he used his mask's ability so no one could monitor him. But he still wasn't sure if this was even working.

However, he had no other way since this was quite important as well, so after preparing, Dismantle Qi poured out of his hands and started to envelop his body.

When Ace was surrounded by complete darkness, he finally opened the mission panel.

=====

Ace was in disbelief after he saw all those stinking rewards of the first mission, and his heart raced widely when he confirmed his eyes weren't playing tricks on him.

'Not only did I get five advanced-grade insight pills, I even managed to get two of the intermediate-grade epiphany pills. I used the low-grade version to create the sword cores. I don't dare to imagine what I will be able to do with a higher version of it.

'As for the last two limited talismans, they are in no way inferior to those pills. With them, I can not only escape anywhere, but I can even steal anything from anyone...' Ace instantly thought about the remaining two elemental orbs. He instantly wanted to go back and steal them by using the Earmark Burglary Talisman.

But he knew there was no point in making haste, 'I'll let you guys keep them safe for me before I'll take them.'

Furthermore, he also got the next manual on the fundamentals of array crafting that should contain 99 middle combinations of 99 middle heavenly arrays, and they should be very helpful for him.

Without hesitation, Ace opened his system shop to see the last reward unique to Heaven's stealer mission.

=====

'Something related to the alchemy?' Ace was surprised to see the glowing pill section, which meant the new item was an alchemy-related item. So he opened it.

=====

Ace frowned when he saw the elixir of darkness's ambiguous description, not to mention the whooping fifty million TP price tag. This should be the most expensive item he had ever seen in the system shop.

"System what kind of effect this elixir has and why its grade was hidden? Is it of a higher grade than the mortal sky?" Ace had to ask the system since he clearly wouldn't be ignoring such an expensive item, especially when he couldn't read its grade.

"[The disclosable information has been divulged before the Host, the rest is up to you to find out yourself.]"

Ace narrowed his eyes and no longer pressed the issue since the system was clearly not going to tell him anything.

'Well, I'll see once I purchase it. But first, I need absolute secrecy... let's see the mission before deciding my next course of action.' Ace's eyes shone thievishly as he opened the next mission after claiming all the rewards.

Ace's jolly expression grew pale when he saw the third prerequisite, 'This is going to be a nuisance!'
