Eternal Thief

Chapter 722 Sun And Moon Seeker

?

Although Ace was in someone else's body, the Sword Intent and his other Law comprehensions were something that had etched into his very being. So, unless someone can reset his mind, these things will never go away. 

The moment Ace used the newly developed, overbearing Eternal Thief's Sword Style with a mortal body, the body was bound not to last more than a few seconds.

However, Ace didn't care as he knew the trial was to kill that thing. It doesn't matter how he killed it. So, despite this suicidal move, he should be fine. Even if he failed, at least he would come prepared next time. 

As for the matter of the Union Leader watching, he had a very good excuse for his month's study as well as he could also lie about this body having such an ability already, like the ability to use Qi without refining. 

The Union Leader had also gone through such a trial, so Ace was sure he would believe him and might also brush the entire thing off by simply thinking that it might also have something to do with his special physique.

Even if he remained suspicious, he won't harm him since he clearly needed him to become the Chosen One, and White would be his only shot at it after he experienced what White was capable of! 

The Sun Seeker, for the first time, seemed to feel fear as its venomous tail moved ever faster to kill Ace, who was now giving him a second to incoming death. 

Ace merely scoffed, and at his behest, the large black blade filled with shadow sword intent moved toward the Sun Seeker like a lightning bolt. 

The Sun Seeker instantly sensed the terror of the shadow sword's intent and quickly gave up on the attack and tried to dodge it. 

But it still didn't use Qi, which also means Ace was right about his conjecture of this guy not having the ability to use Qi to give the trial taker another advantage. Still, this was unfair as it could be for the trial taker. 

Unless they were like, who had comprehended law intents at such a young age, they would never have been able to kill the Sun Seeker. 

The Sun Seeker, despite its quick reflex and effort, couldn't move its body fast enough to evade the corporeal sword blade, and it directly landed over its massive body. Without any resistance, it passes through it like a hot knife in the butter. 

The Sun Seeker let loose an eerily shrill before its body and massive tailed cut in halves as it crumbled down on the sand, raising a massive dust cloud. 

Ace, on the hand, was also not doing much good as his vision started to get darker while a cold sensation crept over his body. 

'Am I going to die…' The thought surfaced in his fading mind before his voice suddenly twisted, and then darkness replaced it.

The next moment, Ace's fading consciousness strangely returned as his eyes were filled with bewilderment, as he had just awakened from a nightmare. 

At this moment, a familiar voice rang, filled with strange ecstasy, "How incredible, to comprehend full element sword intent to such a high degree, truly shocking! You are probably the most incredible genius Heaven has given birth to in a while!"

Ace quickly recognized this voice as it belonged to none other than the Sun and Moon Sword Custodian (SMSC), but it no longer sounded distant or emotionless. Now it sounded like an affable elder. 

Ace then quickly understood that he had returned to his body as he now felt both his martial and soul spaces and couldn't help but take a massive sigh of relief. 

"You might still be feeling a little noxious after you experienced the Sun Seeker Trial. But don't worry; it will go away in a jiffy." SMSC gently stated. 

"I…thank you for your assurance. Did I pass the trial?" Ace asked as he was more concerned about this, and from SMSC's tone, he could guess it should be as he suspected. 

"Although you died right away after killing the Sun Seeker, but the trial was to kill the Sun Seeker. It doesn't matter how you could kill it. 

"So, the Sun and Moon Contender No.23 have passed the Lesser Sun Tower Trial, the Sun Seeker created by Sun God!

"Furthermore, as the sole judge and overseer of the Sun and Moon Trials, I shall proclaim the Sun and Moon Contender No.23 to be fully capable of passing the Entry level trial of the Moon God as well. 

"Thereby, Sun and Moon Contender No.23 has completed the trials in the Lesser Sun and Moon Towers. 

"The Sun and Moon Contender No.23 hereby become the third Sun and Moon Seeker in the history of the Sun and Moon Sword Union and are now eligible to take the Mid Sun and Moon Tower Trials. 

"You are rewarded with the first half of the Yin Yang Mortal Sword Manual to clear the Lesser Sun and Moon Tower Trials. 

"Your achievement to be the fastest one to clear the Sun and Moon Trials, as well as to be the first one to clear at your very first try, will be rewarded with the Upper Sky Breaker Grade Sword Art, the Sword Array of Fallen Moon. 

"You have also earned yourself direct entry into the third level of the Secret Sun and Moon Realms for one year in each realm!"

Ace was in a daze when he heard that not only he got a green pass from taking the Lesser Moon Tower Trial, but all the rewards he got from passing Lesser Sun and Moon Tower Trials were simply too astonishing. 

Just the reward of gaining access to both realms was enough to make this trial worthwhile. 

Right at this moment, within the darkness, Ace suddenly noticed three shining objects coming in his way, and when they were only a few meters away, the bright glow slowly faded away.

By the time they were a few inches away from Ace, he was able to see what they were, and those three objects made Ace's heart race because they were three Jade Scrolls!
