Without any further ado, Ace moved toward the barrier while still in stealth and a concealment cloak.


    The elves were still busily garrisoning the city gate since they were still under the false impression that Ace couldn''t breach the city defensive and had to go through their traps.


    As for the mysterious fate point behind the wall, it was quite clear that he or she was here to guard the entrance just in case things went awry.


    Ace easily bypassed the first barrier with Space Distortion Triangle like he did to infiltrate the city.


    There weren''t any ground traps under the first barrier, but as Ace got closer to the ck ethereal wall, he knew why no one bothered to set up any additional traps.


    The wall itself was a huge trap because, from Ace''s appraisal, the wall was probably a trapping cage. Once active, no one will be able to enter or leave, and it might also have attacking abilities as well.


    ''This formation is most likely from the main royal family of the elves.'' Ace sighed bitterly as he had somewhat underestimated the rulers of the sixth-strongest race of Golden Sky World.


    He was belittling the elven race because of his sess in the Might Demon Continent, but it appeared every race had its trump cards, whether they were number 1 or 10.


    After all, there are millions of species residing in the golden sky world, and the top ten had to have their own means to enter the ranks of the top ten and earn themselves their own continent.


    Still, it didn''t mean Ace would back down. He didn''t just want to leave this ce for himself but for Alina, or he didn''t mind ying mind games with the elves as he did on the demon continent.


    ''I just have to pick-pocket and then detain the other party with my soul cord before they could use this formation…'' Ace mused with a solemn expression.


    He knew the light pir would descend in over ten minutes, and he had to leave after abducting that fate point. If Moira weren''t insisting on it, Ace wouldn''t mind leaving it here if he had no other choice.


    Ace stopped in front of the ck wall, which was giving him the creeps just standing in front of him. It was the true terror of an active Grade-7 Formation which was meant to attack!


    Furthermore, a Grade-7 treasure couldn''t be used by just anyone. The minimum requirement was somewhat with the cultivation of Soul Manifestation Realm!


    As for Ace, he was an exception because of his Heavenly Qi!


    This also implied that whoever was on the other side was at least an early-stage soul manifestation realm expert.


    Ace prepared himself before he pointed the triangle close to the wall.


    Thereafter, he starts pouring his heavenly Qi without holding back into the Space Distortion Triangle, which makes the triangle shine darkly as a terrifying distortion takes ce.


    The ck wall started to contort slightly as it literally started to twist as Ace poured more heavenly Qi into it. A terrifying lightning aura filled with despair surrounded Ace with more heavenly Qi he released.


    ''Chee…''


    Ace''s eyes shimmered darkly as he looked at the small cracks at the tip of the Space Distortion Triangle while the ck wall was still not showing any sign of a gap.


    His eyes turned icy before he released 90% Qi and the very next moment thereafter, the cracks on the Space Distortion Triangle increased before the power output skyrocketed.


    A gap appeared within the ck corporeal wall, and Ace didn''t dare to hold back any longer since it was working; he released all his Qi!


    The Space Distortion Triangle turned into a ball of dark lightning as all its outeryers were charred away, and the gap between the corporeal wall increased, just barely enough for him to slip inside!


    Ace knew it was his chance, and he instantly used the lightning steps while he left the unstable, glowing lightning ball where it was.


    He knew Space Distortion Triangle was about to explode, and he didn''t want anywhere near it when it happened.


    Lastly, it would also alert the person guarding this ce, and if it was even more eye-catching, then all those elves might get alert.


    In both cases, Ace had to move quickly, or he''ll be in a lot of pain, especially since he was now within an active grade-7 formation.


    So, his first course of action was to head toward the fate point, which was less than a hundred meters away from his current position before the Space Distortion Triangle exploded and alerted it.


    Ace''s n was simple; he was going to use the Space Distortion Triangle explosion to catch that fate point off guard and pick-pocket the other party storage ring before they had a chance to use this formation!


    Soul thread was already shooting ahead of him, and at this moment, a veiled, curvaceous figure in a violet dress with a white rose pattern sat cross-legged within a rune symbol circle appeared in his view.


    Although he could only see the side profile of this woman, her face was hidden by that ck veil which was most likely a treasure. Still, she looked extremely gorgeous by the outline of her face and pristine white skin, and aloof aura.


    But Ace wasn''t in the mood to unveil the beauty because he saw a ck formation te hovering in front of her and the runic circle around the woman was most likely a projection of this ck formation te.


    Ace''s expression fell since he could tell this was the exact grade-7 formation te he wanted to take away from her so it couldn''t be used against him.


    Furthermore, he could feel an invisible barrier surrounding her, which might also be the work of that formation te. This simply means his soul thread couldn''t go even close to her, much less touch her storage ring!


    Lastly, an even more flustering thing was the building shielding the next-floor entrance was also tightly wrapped into anotheryer of ckness, and only if someone entered this ce would they be able to see it.


    This was clearly done deliberately to hide this fact meticulously, so even if someone prated at this point, they would have to go through another barrier.N?v(el)B\\jnn


    Ace couldn''t help but look at that aloof veiled beauty with somewhat apprehension since it probably was all meticulously done by her!


    Before he could figure out what to do…


    "Booommmm…."


    A shrilling explosion took ce behind him, creating a terrifying Qi undtion.


    At this moment, the veiled beauty''s sharp eyes snapped open, revealing amber irises, which were filled with fleeting shock as she instantly looked toward the explosion''s direction.


    In an instant, the shock was reced by coldness and a hint of delight!


    Without wasting any time, she moved her hands at a lightning-fast speed, wanting to activate the formation. But she suddenly felt goosebumps when a terrifying white sword materialized right above her head and menacingly descended!


    ''Sword intent?!'' She felt terrifying sharpness from that five-meter light sword descending over her head, and she knew the protection barrier power was not enough to pit against this sword.


    Worrying about her own safety, she gave up on activating the trapping function of the formation. She focused on the defensive function as the invisible barrier around her started to be darker, just like the surrounding walls.


    Ace, who was using the sword intent to buy himself some time, had a very nasty expression when he saw the dark barrier appear over the woman.


    ''Since I already cause amotion, so be it!'' His eyes turned ruthless before he released more sword intent and sword lights started to appear one after another, and all of them rained down on that woman like a torrent!


    Ace wanted to tear apart that barrier and destroy the formation te, getting rid of the barriers around him for good. He will then use the Soul Cord to detain that woman!


    Even if he had to use all his Qi, he didn''t want to give the other party a chance to activate anything else of this formation, especially the attacking or trapping ability.


    Because he would have to use his full power, which means his martial Qi as well, this will have even more terrifying consequences. Possessing both martial Qi and soul Qi was somethingpletely absurd, and no one will ignore it!


    He knew the tower spirit was watching him, so he was even more unwilling to reveal his martial Qi. He was afraid of the existence behind the tower spirit even more!


    On the other hand, the veiled woman''s expression was solemn and grim as she felt the endless rain of swords over the barrier, and she had to continue supplying the barrier with Qi just to block those swords.


    This has rendered the other use of the formationpletely useless, and she had topletely focus on keeping the defensive barrier strong enough, or she knew if she was distracted even for a moment, she might not live, much less kill the terrifying ''Monster!''
