Chapter 933 Assimilating the Divine Talent!

Chapter 933 Assimilating the Divine Talent!

A cloaked figure appeared a few miles from the royal demon institute in the shade of moonless night. 

'Now, where is he? Or I'm the first to arrive?' Jessie, Freya's avatar, frowned with a hint of dissatisfaction. She was still indignant about the new mission. 

At this moment, a voice whispered in his ears, "You're finally here." 

Shocked, she looked around, and there was no one, and she yelled, "I'm not in the mood!" 

"Heh, you make it sound like something else." Ace's figure appeared a few meters away from her like a phantom. 

Freya narrowed her eyes, "Stop joking. Tell me, what's your plan?" 

Ace didn't reply to her question and said, "Are you alone?" 

"Was I supposed to bring someone else?" 

"No. I want to tell you that the imperial demon domain is finished. Every high-ranking court member is dead, including the demon empress. Their treasuries are empty, and right about now, another force might've already taken full control of it. You should relay this information to Brother Thomas. He can live in peace now." Ace coolly divulged. 

However, in Freya's ears, this information sounded like thunder as she looked at Ace in disbelief, "Y-you… is it true?" She also wanted revenge on the demon race and imperial family for a long time and never thought it would happen this way. 

Ace chuckled, didn't hide anything, and told her about the three forbidden countries' secret and how he robbed the entire imperial demon domain. 

Freya heard with utter shock and disbelief. She never expected that such a secret was hidden in the vortex between the three forbidden countries and that such a vast force was hiding there for ages. 

More importantly, how strong was Ace to overcome everyone in his way? 

The most astounding thing was the three ancestors, who were terrifying in her mind. Yet, they also met their end, and one was even captured. This feat was nothing short of legendary, and if people learned about this, they would fear and worship the Sky Stealer even more. 

She had already heard about the incident at Life Demon Grand Duchy, but compared to this, it was nothing. 

"Just how strong are you now?" She couldn't help but question. 

If he could even take down the three old ghosts, didn't this mean he was almost invisible in this world? This mission would become extremely easy, and she had nothing to worry about!

"Almost at the peak." Ace ambiguously smiled, "Alright, now that you know, let's fetch your true body. Head in the devil's continent direction. I'm going towards Noa first, since she should be closer. Then, I'll brief you on what I'm up to. Are you ready?" 

Freya took a deep breath and nodded, "Alright, I'll leave the blood continent and come in your direction. You should've told me sooner. I was afraid for nothing!" 

Ace chuckled before he sent her into the thief space. This would also add another misery to Blood Ancestor's already miserable life. She was still refusing to talk despite Eva's efforts. He was hoping Freya's true body might be able to affect her. 

After that, Ace glanced at the towering walls of the royal demon institute, 'I'll leave you guys a way out and hope you can be better than your predecessors.' 

He then turned into a blurry image before completely disappearing into the darkness. 

Three days later, Ace was flying above the endless sea, and heading toward the devil continent was a few months' voyage away from the demon continent.

He could turn those few months into days if he flew at full speed. But he has to do something first. So, he took out his ship, let it head towards the devil continent direction, and activated all sorts of formations to ensure nothing wrong would happen. 

After confirming everything was on track, he asked the system, "How long will it take to assimilate the Divine Talent?" 

"[24 hours!]"

'So fast?' Ace was glad to see this because he feared it might take years. 

Without hesitation, he ordered, "Then start the assimilation!"

The next moment, Ace suddenly felt a terrifying power enter his body and threatened to tear it apart, and his expression changed! 

A sublime dark golden energy was seeping into blood and piercing his bones. As time passed, more and more of this energy appeared, turning his blood into dark golden, and his white bones also began to change. 

However, this process was nothing but comfortable as Ace felt his entire being breaking and then reconstructing again from blood to bones and then his marrow. This strange energy wanted to change his entire construct from the origin. 

It was even more painful than being struck by the heavenly punishment, but he had to endure it since he didn't want to lose five billion TP. Moreover, he might never be if he can't endure it now. He needed more power to protect others from what was to come, and this was the way! 

A few hours passed, and his blood, skeleton, and bone marrow all had turned dark golden, and his organs were started to be refined by this energy next, and then it started to affect his meridians!

However, the dark meridians were not so simple, as they seemed not to affect this energy. It was either too weak, or the system was protecting his cultivation foundation. 

After all, he cultivated in heaven stealer technique, which was as heaven-defying as this talent or even more powerful. 

At this moment, Ace's flushed skin started to glow in dark golden, and he became a human torch. Dark golden patterns started appearing on his light figure, and strange glyphs were etching on his bones as those patterns became more complex. 

Ace suddenly fell into a strange state, and the world around him seemed to turn into a void. 

An ethereal Kindle suddenly appeared in his mind, and it appeared so small yet so large that he couldn't describe it, and that Kindle appeared so holy and sacred that it seemed to be the most precious thing he had ever seen.

An arcane voice rang in his mind, "So…I'm…still…remembered…"

Suddenly, Ace's eyes snapped open, and dark blue eyes filled with a dark golden complex pattern and a mark of a dark golden cheery blossom glow on his glabella. He appeared extraordinarily holy and otherworldly as a strange aura released from him. The patterns on his skin seemed like tattoos. 

At this moment, the dark golden light suddenly started to dissipate, and the markings started to absorb into his skin, and his eyes returned to normal. Only the mark of cherry blossom remained. 

It all seemed like a dream to him, especially that voice.

The system's voice rang,

=====

Ace ordered emotionlessly as his demeanor changed, "Let's continue then!"
