Chapter 1012 Infiltrating the Principal Tower


    ??In the middle of a moonless night, Ace''s invisible figure crossed miles and carefully made his way towards the principal tower, which was thergest and most magnificent building of the imperial school; it could see from all the way to the entrance.


    But others can see it; this didn''t mean anyone could approach it because there wereyers of restrictions in the way, and at a certain point, there was a forbidden zone, and anyone who dared to enter this area without permission would suffer.


    The principal tower was the symbol of the Sky Heart Imperial School, and all the imperial teachers, vice principal, and principal lived there, so everyone was careful not to cross the line.


    However, in recent years, other than the school''s top powerhouse, the imperial n''s direct descendants were allowed entry into the Principal Tower so they could privately learn from the imperial teachers and note in contact with just any random nobles.


    ording to the traditions, only the sessor of the principal or his disciple can enter the Principal Tower and live there. Even the imperial family can''t enter this sacred ground for teachers wantonly. Yet, for some reason, this rule has begun to change since the instated of Vice Principal Jenna Skr.


    But this matter was only privy to the imperial teachers or some very high-level figures of the empire, and no one dared to discuss it with anyone else since this is not a matter just anyone can get involved in.


    Using the twilight traverse, unhindered, Ace crosses the distance between the Principal Tower, and with the live fate map, hepletely avoids all the physical traps hidden around the tower.


    The Principal Tower was around five miles radius wide and shaped like a hexagon, and it was over 5000 meters tall. At night, it magically twinkled with countless stars as if countless stars were hidden within the space of the tower''s outer walls.


    There was only one entrance to the Principal Tower, located right in front of the pathway that led towards the Principal Tower, and there was a hundred-meter-tall crimson arc gate, and there were engraving of giants on the gate.


    Ace didn''t even stop to measure the strength of the gate as he could easily tell that it was protected with just an intermediate grade-8 formation, which couldn''t stop his advance of the twilight traverse. Only grade-9 formations that he entered the goldennds would stop him.


    Crossing the gate like a phantom, Ace appeared in a vast space. Many giant stone statues stood tall on both sides of the tower wall between the white crystal columns, and names were engraved on their statues. Ace nced at those names, and just as he thought, they were all the past important figures of the Skr n. Most of them were the statues of the previous Mortal Emperors.


    This was the memorial hall of the Principal Tower on the very first floor, and every one of these statues was once a student of the Sky Heart Imperial School. Each one of them was a terrifying figure, especially those who weren''t an Emperor yet still had the qualification to have their statues stand between all these past Mortal Emperors.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    However, Ace wasn''t here to admire the relics of the past and the statues'' craftsmanship. His focused turned on the thick pir in the center of this hall, that pir was actually a spiral staircase leading directly to the upper floors of the Principal Tower.


    ''She''s up there.'' Ace didn''t dy, and after sensing Eva''s presence, his lips curled up as he began to climb the spiral staircase. No one knew that a thief had snuck into the most secure ce of the Sky Heart Imperial School and the second most secure ce of the imperial city!


    Ace quickly reached a closed door; this was the entrance to the second floor, and he crossed. To his surprise, this ce was actually packed with old bookshelves filled with countless books.


    ''This… the forbidden library of the Sky Heart Imperial School that only the imperial teachers can ess. Who could''ve thought they had left it here? And here, I thought it would be hidden in some secret ce under peak-level security.'' Ace couldn''t help but think in disappointment. He was very disappointed with this security and even wondered if those books were just some front to trick others.


    He was nning to search for more information on mystic abilities ofws, especially the sword-rted ones, and he was about to search for this library with Eva''s help. Since she was most likely the principal''s disciple, it wouldn''t be a problem for her to find out where the forbidden library was. Yet, he found it by just breaking into the second floor of the Principal Tower. So, he was a little doubtful since it was too easy.


    With his powerful thief sense, Ace quickly activated the heavenly sense ability andpletely enveloped the entire library, and with a thought, all the information on those ancient books began to appear in his knowledge gxy in the appearance of countless knowledge stars.


    With the Knowledge Gxy, Ace didn''t need to worry about straining his knowledge sea. He can take an almost infinite amount of knowledge into the Knowledge Gxy and make it his own. This was the true benefit of the Avatar of Twilight''s Knowledge Gxy divine trait!


    If his avatar weren''t still recovering from that strange power, Ace wouldn''t even need toe here.


    Within a few minutes, Ace skimmed through the countless knowledge stars, and he was shocked to see that all the information in them was important and could be considered true hidden knowledge that the public wasn''t privy to.


    This was really the forbidden library!


    Ace quickly begins to look for the mystic abilities rted to swordw. Soon, he quickly found some information on the swordw-rted mystic abilities. The information was quite limited because in the history of the Sky Heart Continent there wasn''t a great number of sword cultivators, instead, strangely any cultivator who had ever awakened sword intent had died mysterious or vanished.


    This was the strangest part about sword cultivators, and because of it, not many dared to cultivate in swordw anymore. The most information about weapon intent recorded in these books was about the Spear Law, which was the signature of the Skr Giant n.


    Still, it didn''t matter to Ace since he had already gotten what he wanted; his eyes shimmered with tion.


    ''There is only a signal mystic ability that has ever been witnessed and recorded in the history of the Sky Heart Mortal Empire, the Sword Heart!


    ''The mystic ability that allows a sword cultivator to control any sword with just a simple thought without any kind of Qi, and every sword must submit to sword heart!''
