    Chapter 1274 Snatching Food from Tiger''s Mouth!


    A week has passed in peace ever since Ace entered the Forger Abyss.n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    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 ording 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.


    Nheless, 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 ck Ascension Physique again.


    After all, forging made his cultivation progress faster, and the Universal ck 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 im 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 ofmotion, 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 imed, 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 exnation, so before I vanished, I came here to inform you!"


    Ace was shocked by this abrupt announcement and finally understood why this guy was looking at him with those emotions.


    "Wait! Didn''t you tell me there was no other legacy inheritor beside me? Now, you''re telling me a new legacy inheritor had appeared out of nowhere and even imed this legacy and secret realm in a week, no less?" Ace''s voice was cold and contained a hint of anger.


    After all, he had already imed this ce as his, but now someone else had swept everything. He suddenly felt like someone had snatched his food, which was a terrible feeling. It was the first time someone had ''robbed'' him of his things, and he had to admit this was a terrible feeling.


    Nheless, Ace was also vignt. If this person canplete all the trials in such a short time, then it means this person has a terrifying cultivation base and a profound understanding of spirit. forging.


    Or, this Guardian Spirit was scheming against him to get rid of him. There was also a possibility that this inheritor existed for a long time, but this Guardian Spirit hid it from the start to ensure its safety.


    After all, Ace had personally witnessed this Guardian Spirit''s devious means when it gave him that fake token to fool others.


    The Guardian Spirit didn''t retort since Ace''s anger was justifiable, but from its unchanged expression, it was clear that it didn''t care much.


    "Truth be told, even I wasn''t expecting this girl''s talent to be so great, and I didn''t lie to you. She appeared around the same time when you came here a week ago. Furthermore, she isn''t much older than you. So, ording to the rules, shepeted fairly and earned the legacy. There was no folly.


    "You need to remember, in the world of cultivation, nothing is set in stone; an opportunity cane anytime, but to im it, you need sufficient strength, or if you dy, it''ll be someone else''s: Guardian Spirit sternly stated, "Still, your talent is not bad, and I know if you had time, this legacy would''ve been yours. So, as a farewell gift and to show my appreciation, I''ll introduce you to the legacy owner. I''ve already told her about your situation, and she agreed to give me some face and take you in.


    "I''m sure if you learn from her, you can make tremendous progress, and if you impress her and remain diligent, you''ll achieve more. After all, she seemed to have a terrifying background." Guardian Spirit, kindly advise at this moment.


    Ace''s eyes narrowed slightly. Guardian Spirit''s words gave him many clues, and he sensed a hidden scheme behind this.


    "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 be 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 me my own ipetence for this. Since Senior is still showing me kindness, I''ll humbly ept 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 ce, 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 pir 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 me!


    This scarlet me made his Demonic ck Spirit Fire react, and Ace instantly knew that these scarlet mes 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 pir contained Grandmaster Smith''s legacy and that woman should be the inheritor, as she seemed to be in the process of epting it.


    Furthermore, Ace instantly recognized that woman in the light pir, which also made his spection 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!
