Eternal Thief

Chapter 401

“My first compass point ability is called Live Fate Map. Eternal Master can see a Live Fate Map around you without being worried about anyone’s detection.

“But its range is directly connected with your soul sense. This means you can only see things in a 500M radius around you, and it will continue to increase with your soul sense!”

Ace pursed his lips. “You mean this ability is the same as my soul sense, but slightly powerful?”

Ace was very disappointed because he wanted the ability to find treasure, not the same ability he already has.

The treasure spirit spoke, “No Eternal Master, it’s not like your Soul Sense or Heavenly Sense.

“First, anyone can’t detect it, no matter how strong the cultivation someone had.

“Second, this Live Fate Map can indicate you toward the best direction where you should go to found a fortunate opportunity that will most suitable for you, or it could also be a thing that you needed the most or desire or something that can help you in future in some peril. All in all, it could be anything, I have no control over it since I’m not complete yet.

“Lastly, the Live Fate Map will create a Live Mapping according to Eternal Master soul sense range and in this Live Mapping, Eternal Master can see exact terrains around you as you move, no illusions or any runes or power can affect this Live Mapping. While it will also show you different Fate Points and Fate Locations.”

Ace felt his mind tremble after hearing the true capabilities of this Live Fate Map because this was just too damn overwhelmed!

Just the first two abilities were enough for anyone to go mad over this incomplete, eternal provenance treasure, while the third one was like a living map that can help you find directions and nothing can trick you to lose your way or walk into a trap.

Ace quickly asked with a hint of ecstasy in his voice, “What are these Fate Points and Fate Locations?”

“Fate Points are living beings that will be shown in Live Mapping in different colors. This could be described in this way. If a living being is on a friendly term with Eternal Master, it will be appeared in ‘Green Point’. While, if an enemy or someone with malicious intention toward Eternal Master entered the vicinity of Live Mapping, they will be shown in ‘Red Point’. As for someone neutral, they will appear in ‘White Point’ and so on.

“Fate Locations are also similar, but they are not living beings, but areas marked according to the danger level toward the Eternal Master. Like an area that poses no threat to Eternal Master, the Live Map will appear in Gray Map while if there is some danger to Eternal Master’s life the Live Map will turn into Blue and if there were an absolute danger, then it will appear in crimson.

“There are more colors which showed different signs, like Silver Point and Silver Map will indicate toward a treasure(s) on a person’s or location which is useful to Eternal Master and so forth.” The treasure spirit explained.

“T-this… it’s like having an alarm which will alert you of danger and treasures at the same time… This is the same ability of Myriad Live Compass Map, but far more powerful.” Ace exclaimed in disbelief and was left speechless for words to describe his emotions.

Ace suddenly felt forming this Provenance Life Bond with the former HFLC was probably the best decision he ever made, and it was far more precious than any other type of treasure.

This treasure can simply predict danger and fortune and this will be an overwhelming advantage to him in the future, and he’ll become a nightmare for his enemies!

Ace suddenly shiver in excitement with just the thought and asked eagerly, “How would I activate Live Fate Map?”

“Eternal Master has to focus on the only activate ability symbol on me and pours your heavenly soul Qi into and the ability will activate. However, the heavenly soul Qi needed to keep the Live Soul Map activate is very high and Eternal Master can only keep it activated for an hour even with your vast reserved of soul Qi.” The treasure spirit replied in a dubious tone.

Ace frowned slightly hearing this, but he smiled brightly and said, “This is troublesome, but one hour is also enough to see many things. Oh, and call me Ace from now on. No need to call me Eternal Master. We are, after all, partners for life now, so there is no need for formalities. I’ll also call you Moira from now on.”

The treasure spirit remained silent for a few moments as it finally said in a tone full of gratification, “Thank you for bestowing me my name and acknowledging my existence. I never thought I would have met someone like you and be reborn again. I, Moira, am eternally grateful to Eternal Master Ace, and I’ll help you in your fight with Heaven until the end of my existence!”

Ace smiled and said, “I’m also glad I found you, Moira. Can you manifest again?”

He couldn’t help but asked since he has only seen a blurry figure of Moira before, and he wanted to see what a Treasure Spirit looked like.

Moira answered in a childish voice, “I can’t manifest, not until you activate my third symbol.”

Ace was somewhat disappointed, but he said nothing further. He was happy with just Moira’s ability to speak. Or he knows if the system wanted. It could’ve simply restrained Moira’s speaking ability as well, just as it did with its knowledge.

It probably left Moira with its intelligence and speaking ability because Ace won’t be able to know all its functions without Moira’s help and explanation, or creating an intelligent treasure spirit with emotions was too troublesome.

“Let’s see what this Live Fate Map looked like.”

Ace focused inside his true soul where the decagram compass needle was revolving on top of his orange soul core and the very next moment thereafter, the orange soul Qi rushed toward the only activated symbol of Eternal Thief Fate Compass.

The dark golden light on the black symbol and black compass point suddenly brightened as more and more heavenly soul-Qi entered the symbol.

Suddenly, Ace’s eyes snapped open, and his dark blue iris changed into a decagram just like the compass needle shape.

Ace was astonished when he saw on the right corner of his view a square meter screen had appeared just like a system panel, but it was completely different, as it was like a map.

Ace could see a dark blue dot right inside a cave, and he instantly knows it was him. Furthermore, this map was gray, which means it was safe.

“Zoom Out!”

This was one of the commands he got after activating the ability symbol on the compass.

Ace pupils contracted and the very next moment, the cave area shrank, and more surroundings appeared on the one-meter map.

It only stopped until the map zoomed out or five hundred meters, and he could see a small live map of his surroundings, and it was all gray. There were only three blue rune symbols on the entrance of the cave, which show there were the formations and traps he set up.

This made Ace even more elated because he could see all the runic dangers in color runes points in this Live Fate Map.

Furthermore, he could also see a golden black compass point in an arrow shape in the top left corner of this map, which was pointing toward the NNE direction (North-North-East).

“Moira, is this the second ability you described before?” Ace asked.

“Yes, there could be anything there that could be useful for you,” Moira replied.

‘So, going in this direction is good for me, or it might also be bad? Didn’t it point toward the Might Mist Province?’ Ace mused as he contemplated in the direction where the compass arrow was pointing.

“According to All-Knowing Parrot, I also stole Myriad Live Compass Map from Mist Demon King’s minions, and he doesn’t seem quite happy about it since he sent New Moon Duke there as well.

“Now, Mist Demon King even gave orders to hunt ten participants of Blade Domain for the first part of their training program. I don’t know how long I was unconscious, but those youths of the Mist Domain should appear here in two months.

“All-Knowing Parrot, also said Blade Demon King won’t stop it from happening even after finding it out, since it will also create a deadlier environment for blade domain demons and strengthened them if they overcome this sudden development. Let’s see the current ranking.”

Ace remembered All-Knowing Parrot’s warning about Mist Demon King, and that guy was a schemer and a poisonous snake, opposite to Blade Demon King.

That was why he first completed his side mission, which will give him more chance to survive, and it seemed he was completely right about it.

Right now, the entire outer region and some parts of the middle region of the shadow mountain range were in a tremendous uproar as foreign demons were hunting youths from Blade Domain!
