After Ace robbed more than ten shops belonging to powerful first-grade sects, he finally felt satisfied and moved towards the main target after causing enough distraction.
The thefts in the market go way easier than Ace had thought they would because, with a soul probe, he quickly found the people who held the keys to those treasuries. With his absolute pickpocket, he can directly pickpocket a specific treasure from soone as long as he knows what it looks like and if that person has it.
Once he got those keys, all he needed to do was to use the Dismantle Spirit Qi and stealth to sneak into the treasuries and inventories of those shops. The combination of Dismantle Spirit Qi and stealth was really terrifying since no formation could detect him as long as he didn't make a mistake or trigger sothing because of his own stupidity.
Right now, Ace, enshrouded in an invisible shroud of stealth above the layer of Dismantle Spirit Qi, moved through the Pri Heavenly Bank Branch like a ghost, and no formation were triggered while he was closely monitoring the treasure blueprint map.
"Rember to alert if you see any unusual movents. I'm relying on you, Moira!" Ace solemnly stated.
"Don't worry, sir. I seed to have gained a special ability in this state. Now, I can sense all those fate points emotions and easily detect if they had any ill will towards you!" Moira promised with great resolution.
Ace's lips curled up slightly as he didn't think the danger detection would also affect Moira, and he couldn't be happier. Now, he can focus all his attention on this mission.
Ace was extrely careful, and his every step was silent, his presence undetectable as he navigated the deserted hallways of the bank's interior, according to the map.
The chaos outside had greatly thinned the crowd within, leaving only a handful of bank employees, who remained oblivious to his presence. The glow of formations embedded in the walls cast eerie shadows as he slipped deeper into the building.
Ace never thought that his venture to gather TP would give him this kind of advantage. But when he thought about it, this made sense since this kind of event hadn't happened in the entire Spirit Inferno Domain before, much less in the second grand sect's main cities. Everyone would be paying attention to this, even the bank!
When he reached the second level carefully yet quickly, Ace paused, allowing his Primordial Law Sense to spread in the surrounding area. The second level of the bank was heavily protected; a dense network of surveillance formations and defensive arrays guarded it.
Furthermore, now that his heavenly law sense has evolved into Primordial Law Sense, he can easily pick up on formations created with law runes of ascension grade.
His sense picked up every subtle pulse and fluctuation in these formations. At this mont, Ace, with a calm, practiced hand, released Lawless Darkness Qi, which he called the 'Darkness Veil,' a self-created technique that temporarily disrupted the perception of those nearby and dampened the sensory feedback of the arrays or any formations, even spells and attacks. After his pri law and cultivation entered the Ascension Warrior Realm, he discovered that the effect of the Lawless Darkness could now be used like this as well. This sudden understanding occurred after his pri law increased, and he created the world seed.
This way, he won't have to waste his Lawless Darkness limit, and he starts to learn more refined ways of using this overpowered ability.
After all, his Twilight Traverse can't be used within ascension-grade formations yet since its power is still too weak.
"Good, no one noticed it..." He muttered to himself, weaving through the maze of security like a phantom.
Despite the Darkness Veil, each step was a calculated move. Ace maneuvered between narrow gaps in the arrays using his primordial law sense, sotis shifting his form to squeeze through tiny spaces, other tis waiting for a fluctuation in the formation's energy flow to slip past undetected without even using the darkness veil.
When he reached the end of the second level, he faced a wall with intricate runic patterns glowing faintly—a secondary barrier that only authorized personnel could pass.
Furthermore, Ace knew that the teleportation room where he t the Vault Warden was not far away, so he was even more careful in this place.
A smirk played on his lips, as he could clearly see this wall was a powerful illusion. It was actually a barrier. Without hesitation, he activated the lawless darkness at full capacity, which shifted his form into pure darkness.
Ace seized the opportunity without wasting any ti, phasing through the barrier with a surge of his lawless darkness and reappearing on the other side.
Quickly stopping the lawless darkness, he entered the third level for the first ti, and it was even more elaborate. It was designed not only to prevent entry but also to trap intruders in layers of spatial confinent if they tripped the alarms.
Ace crouched low, his eyes scanning the area with the fate map while his Heavenly Thief Sense expanded, revealing the complex patterns of spatial distortions and hidden runic traps. One wrong move here, and he'd find himself sealed in an isolated dinsion-sothing even his formidable abilities would struggle to escape.
Ace took a deep breath, focusing his senses. After glancing at the pathway forward, he used the darkness veil again and moved.
With precise movents, he twisted his body, sidestepping the invisible distortions and expertly avoiding the trap triggers since, despite the few seconds of distortion, he still needed to be careful not to trip any alarm here recklessly.
Ace's fluid and graceful movents resembled those of a dancer as he navigated the treacherous path forward. His senses detected a spatial fluctuation—a hidden shift that would have caught anyone unaware.
Smirking, he reacted, and lawless darkness activated again as he bent low, rolling forward. The space where he had just stood warped and shimred.
After several tense minutes of maneuvering, he finally reached a reinforced door adorned with the insignia of the Pri Heavenly Bank. Beyond this door was the hurdle towards the heart of the bank, where the final level's entry point was and also where the true wealth and treasures were kept.
Furthermore, the master lock was also behind this sealed door. Not only that, but Ace knew that this door was also connected to the master look on the other side!
At his point, everything was going smoothly, as none of the hidden guards had detected anything, and he was very close to this goal.
"Ti for the main event,' Ace thought, his eyes gleaming sharply!
