Ace felt he had just escaped a certain death when that Soul Sense's oppression was gone. But he knew the party wouldn't be fooled so easily.

His only chance was for these three red fate points to draw the attention of this terrifying being while he found a way out of this sudden mess.

While the entire place was dyed in black on the fate map, with the exception of the silver area, it wasn't hard to guess anymore as this location might be the only way out of there.

'If this silver fate point was really pointing out a way to escape from this expert, which would've happened if I chose to ignore it. Or it is not the way out at all. I can still use the space step talisman to teleport my way in this one-minute window.

'Because if there wasn't any way out in this passage, then I'll have to use my instant flash talisman.' Ace knew he didn't have to wait as the black fate point was already at the entrance while the two red fate points were also close.

A deep voice reverberated at this moment like thunder, "I know you're in there., you, sneaky little thief! You can no longer hide that space fluctuation from me!"

Ace's heart palpitated when he heard this, and without hesitation, he used a space talisman to head deeper into the passage. He knew the other party was really here for him, and it wasn't coincidental.

He hadn't felt this threatened since the incident of treasure mountain in the land of Kingdoms!

This time, he appeared right behind those two red fate points and happened to see them storming toward the entrance.

His eyes contracted when he saw they were two white snakes with golden patterns on their scales. They didn't seem to notice Ace at all.

"Boommm!"

A massive explosion rang, jolting the whole passage.

The same cold voice snorted again, "Annoying beast get out of my way!"

The two snakes suddenly trembled as a terrifying aura engulfed the entire passage, and Ace felt like he was in a freezing lake.

The next moment, a giant figure appeared right above the teleportation spot.

Ace nearly forgot to breathe because the pressure was simply too terrifying around this giant person. A bright formation plate was hovering in front of this person.

"I know you're here. Just come out and surrender, and your life will be spared." The Demon Ancestor coldly looked around.

He didn't know how but his soul sense was no longer locked on Ace. He knew he had locked on him for a moment, but he suddenly vanished. Likewise, he thought that it was because of that space ability, but now he still couldn't detect Ace.

Which made him somewhat worried.

He had finally tracked Ace's traces because of the formation in front of him. This formation was the only thing that could detect space fluctuations from an extremely large distance.

This formation was borrowed from the Devil Race; with it, he found traces of Ace in the black mountains. But to his dismay, Ace had stopped using the space step talismans at that point, so he could only search without any clues again.

However, when the heavenly punishment case such a huge commotion, he was the first to notice it, and then he even sensed the key's position for a small period of time, making him come in this direction.

This led him toward this rift, and when Ace used the talisman again, it was picked by the formation, making him even certain that it was Ace!

As long as Ace wasn't teleported to an extremely long distance, he could easily follow him with lightning-fast speed. He was determined to capture him and reclaim the scepter while also gaining Ace's secrets!

Furthermore, he had a trump card which he wasn't sure would work or not, but he'll try it if Ace doesn't surrender!

Ace, on the other hand, was shocked to see the Demon Ancestor appearing a few meters above him.

'He can retract my talisman potions with space undulations?!' Ace was completely appalled at this moment. He had never thought about this possibility.

Gritting his teeth, he still used the talisman to go deeper into the passage. There were still over 50 seconds left before the horn's time ran out. He wanted to see why this place was still silver.

If it still does not work, then he'll use the instant flash to get out of there.

The formation plate trembled at this moment before the demon ancestor looked deeper into the direction of the cave.

"Stubborn!" He snorted as he again chased.

However, Ace didn't stop and kept using the talismans until he reached the end of the passage.

His eyes dilated when he saw a dark slit right in the middle of space, and he could feel a dense Qi coming out from this slit.

'A tear in space?! Could it be this is the fate location, and I can only escape using it!' Ace's mind raced as he could feel the Demon Ancestor approaching with a terrifying speed, and he'll be here any second.

'Fate Map has never disappointed me before!' Ace gritted his teeth and ran toward the space slit.

As he entered the space slit, it suddenly trembled before it started to get close.

But before it got completely closed, he was able to hear Demon Ancestor's fleeting voice, which made him flutter.

"If you surrender, I can help you save your Sister Alina from…."

"What?!" Ace twisted his head instantly as he looked behind and wanted to rush out, but the tear was gone. He fell into complete darkness.

At this moment, he finally felt he wasn't standing on solid ground, and before he could react, he felt a strange force gripping his body and started to pull him in all directions.

He felt like he was in a meat grinder as this force wanted to rip him into shreds while his body was being pulled in a particular direction.

At this moment, the System's voice rang in his mind, which was in a mess because he heard Alina named out of Demon Ancestor's mouth.

The next moment, Ace's body suddenly vanished from the darkness.

A few moments after Ace's body had vanished, a vertical eyeball appeared with a spiral iris that could make anyone fall into an endless illusion.

Seeing no one there, the spiral eyeball faded away!

A few moments ago, the Demon Ancestor felt a strange danger at the edge of this tunnel, making his eyes squint. He thought it was Ace's trump card, so he stopped to ensure he won't fall into his trap.

Ace's abilities were all terrifying, and to this day, no one knows what his cultivation was or the extent of his abilities. But underestimating him is the biggest mistake at this point.

So, he decided to use his trump card immediately to ensure that guy won't try the path of mutual destruction.

Although Demon Ancestor was a high and mighty expert, he was also afraid of death because of this exact reason, and he didn't want to fall into the trap of someone with Ace's reputation.

If he had known that Ace was only at the river core realm according to their standards, he would never have stopped out of caution.

He loudly said, "If you surrender, I can help you save your Sister Alina from Dream Shatter!"

Demon Ancestor didn't know if this was true or not, but an astonishing declaration had been made a month ago by the Ice Lord, one of the Five Element Lords of the Blood Continent.

He declared that his daughter, the famous Ice Sword Fairy had ties with the thief, and because of it, she was captured and held hostage by the Dream Shatter, the Ancestor of the Human Race.

Ice Sword Fairy Alina was quite famous within the upper echelon of the ten continents because of her talent in sword path and Heavenly Beauty.

So, this news naturally shocked the entire world because the Sky Stealer had long become a mysterious enigma of thievery. As a result, many dreaded him, especially after the rumor of Demon Temple theft started to rise.

But no one had ever thought that the thief had ties with the Ice Sword Fairy, and from the announcement of the Ice Lord, he also stated that the thief was most likely a traitor of the human race, not a demon or hex demon.

However, what shocked everyone the most was the humans dared to leak this fact.

Weren't they afraid of demons taking the fight to them to regain their prestige once they knew the elusive thief belonged to the humans and he even had a possible weakness?

The last part of the announcement was if Ace won't come to Azure Wind Continent in 5 years and surrender, then Dream Shatter will execute Aline!
