Chapter 1274 Snatching Food from Tiger's Mouth!



chapter 1274 snatching food from tiger's mouth!

a week has passed in peace ever since ace entered the forger abyss.

ace was finally done with his tasks, like taking the inventory of the stolen goods from the bank branch. this actually took him a full day since there were too many items. he needed the system's help to appraise many of them, and then he separated them according to their uses and grades.

afterward, he needed to revise the new knowledge he had brought from the system while he was also paying close attention to his avatar. although he had a parallel mind, he was still quite excited about going to the king sect, especially since the king sect was the wealthiest one in the entire mortal ascension heaven.

nonetheless, this didn't mean that he stopped making progress. in fact, now that the problem of the resources and materials had been solved, ace was getting ready to start refining the weapons for the universal black ascension physique again.

after all, forging made his cultivation progress faster, and the universal black ascension physique was something he was determined to cultivate because of its terrifying power.

moreover, he was also secretly scanning the forger abyss to see if he could find his way into the core of this secret realm and then claim everything without going through the trouble of trials. furthermore, for some reason, ace hadn't felt the guardian spirit's presence ever since it sent him here, which was strange for some reason since he guessed that the guardian spirit would not leave him alone so easily.

but ace hadn't expected that today, just when he was thinking about secretly letting his thief's house out, he suddenly sensed changes in the secret realm, and a tremor suddenly appeared. just when ace was wondering what could've caused this kind of commotion, he suddenly felt something and looked in front of him. he was currently sitting in an underground chamber he had dug himself.

at this moment, the spirit guardian appeared, and its stoic face seemed to be filled with emotions and relief. it looked at ace and suddenly pulled a smile that contained a trace of apology and pity, which made ace suddenly feel bad.

"i'm here to inform you that the grandmaster smith's legacy has been claimed, and now this secret realm has a new master. since my purpose is served, i'll vanish soon. since you were also a legacy inheritor who had passed the first trial, i owe you an explanation, so before i vanished, i came here to inform you!"

"this inheritor is clearly a woman, and she also had a terrifying background. could it be that woman? furthermore, this guardian spirit clearly wanted me to become her lucky since my talent is not bad, and who knows how much he had told that woman about me.'

ace's eyes grew colder as he thought about it, but his lips rose slightly behind his mask, 'but it's not easy to snatch my things. even if this is that inheritor's scheme or this guardian spirit's idea, they'll regret trying to subdue me!"

ace showed a hint of unwillingness before he sighed ruefully and nodded, "i reacted too excessively just now. please forgive me. since this opportunity had no fate with me, i can only blame my own incompetence for this. since senior is still showing me kindness, i'll humbly accept your offer."

guardian spirit's eyes instantly brightened as it nodded with satisfaction, "it's good you know how to be flexible. let's go. i'll let you meet her excellence. she's waiting for you!"

ace wanted to scowl, but he held back and nodded with a smile. the next moment, he vanished with the guardian spirit.

the next moment, ace appeared in a spacious white hall made with exquisite marble. many murals showcased forging images. it was his first time seeing this place, and ace knew this might be the exclusive space for the true inheritor.

at this moment, his eyes instantly fell upon the veiled woman with golden hair and a curvaceous figure hovering in a pillar of golden light in the center of this hall. what drew ace's attention instantly was the golden table above her head, giving off a terrifying yet profound aura.

not only that, but there were many things above that table: an ancient-looking hammer, a jade scroll, and something that suddenly made something in ace's body agitate with greed. it was a translucent sphere, and within this sphere was a scarlet flame!

this scarlet flame made his demonic black spirit fire react, and ace instantly knew that these scarlet flames were another spirit fire. it seemed quite extraordinary since his spirit fire showed great desire to devour it!

it was now quite clear that the pillar contained grandmaster smith's legacy and that woman should be the inheritor, as she seemed to be in the process of accepting it.

furthermore, ace instantly recognized that woman in the light pillar, which also made his speculation correct because this woman was none other than the inner valley disciple of the sun valley of the sun and moon king valley, eleanor sun!
