Chapter 39 - Red-Mountain City! (Part 2)



But no one notices two silhouettes sneak inside the city when everyone\'s attention was on that lavishing carriage.

\'Succeed\'. Ace thought joyfully. He looks behind and saw Eva has also traversed the gate with him and beamed. He starts to move in a random direction, he wanted to go far away from the city gate before stopping.

After they stop moving they saw lively streets were covered with smooth bricks and were full of pedestrians, such a scene was clearly rare in a 2-star city like River-Flower city.

They quickly get rid of their black robes and start to move around the city.

Ace has finally arrived inside of Red-Mountain City. He curiously looked around. Before, he had thought that River-Flower City was quite big and lively, but now, he discovered that he was a frog in a well. He did not know just how vast this 1-star City was, but he knew that it was many times larger than River-Flower City.

Ace saw many people were gathering in front of a long wall.

"Let\'s go there and see what is happening." Eva walks towards the long wall. She was quite curious about this big city and she wasn\'t as vigilant as Ace after crossing the city gate.

He followed her and went over the wall, they found that a lot of information was put up on that wall. They were either giving some directions or some kind of other information. On top of everything, there was also a map of the entire city indicating some inns, well-known stores, city lord\'s mansion, and cultivation family\'s directions…

The map itself was very detailed, Ace soon found where the important places were on the map. Another thing that had caught Ace\'s attention was that there was information regarding the buying and selling of items, looking for missing persons or items, and recruitment offers for various jobs. This was to help people who were new to Red-Mountain City.

They swept through the myriad of information. Eva pointed in a specific direction on the map and said to Ace, "Let\'s go to this Inn, it\'s the best inn of the entire city!"

She wasn\'t reserved at all when she said that because she knows that Ace was rich after he robbed two of the most powerful families of a 2-Star city and he even got a storage ring. So, he can afford anything in this city.

"Let\'s go, I also want to see how grand a 1-Star city is." Ace smiled, he wasn\'t a stingy person, and since he has millions of Ruby Coins he didn\'t mind spending some.

They followed the map\'s direction and quickly reached the grand hotel of the city. It was a big ten-story lavishing building.

Ace was a little surprised by this it was really deserved its reputation as the best Inn in the entire city.

They both entered the Inn and get two of the most luxurious room in the hotel for an entire month. Ace pays 20,000 ruby coins since he has the money he didn\'t feel much by this amount but those people around him clearly shocked by his wealth. Because by looks of his clothes he didn\'t look rich at all even the lady at the reception was stun.

Ace didn\'t mind all this since he was already inside the city no one would think that he has sneak inside. And all these hotels didn\'t check for information on their customers since most of them were usually cultivators they can\'t afford to offend them.

Ace move towards his room with Eva, they both were staying on the same floor and their rooms were also nearby. If something happened they can easily find each other.

Entering his room, Ace saw all these luxurious items inside and big comfortable bedding. He couldn\'t help but felt the fatigue of all his missions and this journey, he was sleeping on the floor for at least one and half months. Because when he was in Grant\'s family he didn\'t get to sleep comfortably.

But when he thinks about something he felt all of the stress go away in smoke because now he was finally alone and can turns all those pills inside his thief\'s space into EXP! He didn\'t do it because he was with Eva all the time in wildness and didn\'t want to show her anymore of his secrets.

She didn\'t ask him about how he gets all these mysterious abilities before but she also knows the truth about his background. That\'s why he didn\'t want to show her anymore and still had his guard up against her a little. But he still hopes that she wasn\'t this kind of person and it was all in his head.

Ace sits calmly and transmitted eagerly, "System convert all the lowest grade pills (white grade pills) into EXP!"

Other than white ranked pills he wanted to keep those Green and Blue ranked pills for an emergency.

======

"[System detects 756 Lowest-Grade pills in host Thief\'s Space]

[Are you sure you want to convert all of them into EXP?]"

======

Ace become astonished by these numbers he didn\'t expect that the Kelby family treasury would give him more white grade pills than Rylan\'s storage ring. He didn\'t even check all those treasures of the Kelby family since he thinks that they were not as valuable as Rylan\'s. but now he was thinking of sorting them out after this.

"Yes." He answered without any hesitation.

=======

"[System has converted 756 lowest-grade pills into 7560 EXP.]

[Congratulation Host on Opening the 4th Gate of Heavenly Gate.]

[Host status has been updated.]"

=======

Ace was very happy seeing all the EXP but after hearing about opening the 4th gate he becomes confused because he was clearly in the 3rd gate.

Before he could inquire about it he felt his Heavenly Qi start to surge. His organs start to absorb the Heavenly Qi at a high pace. He quickly closed his eyes and start to cultivate the Heaven Stealer\'s Crystal Body technique.

After three hours Ace open his eyes, he has finally stabilized his cultivation at the 4th Stage of Qi Gates. \'The gate of organs really has been opened!\' It was a pleasant surprise.

"System why did I able to breakthrough directly into 4th gate and without encountering any bottleneck?" He was distracted by the fact because he has just breakthrough ten days ago, this kind of speed in cultivation is unheard of.

"[Host has already formed the Yellow-Wind Soul Core in soul cultivation, it is equal to Heavenly Foundation Building realm, that\'s why host didn\'t encounter any bottleneck.]" System answered emotionlessly.

"Are you telling me; I\'m able to breakthrough directly into Heavenly Foundation Building Realm as long as I have enough EXP? Then what about if my soul cultivation is equal to Heavenly River realm?" He asked frantically.

"[Yes! Host guess is right as long as your soul or body cultivation is higher than others, you can directly breakthrough into that same realm. Because the Heaven Stealer technique is basically one technique and this is also the advantage of cultivating both soul and body at the same time.]"

The system confirmed it!

Ace takes a deep breath of cold air, he finally understands why this technique was taboo and it has too many advantages and only one disadvantage.

Like when he reaches the Foundation Building Realm he will be facing the heavenly punishment and he has to withstand both body and soul punishment at the same time. He thinks it was a very low price to pay for the technique. Although, he won\'t understand it until he faced it.

"Now I only need EXP to Build my Heavenly Foundation! It seems like I need to start my journey towards the most powerful city of the entire 4th level lands as soon as possible. I need to gather information tomorrow, first I have to find where that city is and how long will it take me to reach that city. I only have five years to complete my job mission." Ace mutter under his breath as he planned his next course of action.

He takes a look at his EXP status.

[EXP: 4470/10,000]

"System if I convert all the pills inside my storage space how much EXP will I get?" Since he can now break through to the next realm without any problem, he wanted to enter directly into the Heavenly Foundation Building realm as soon as possible.

"[Host can convert them into 4080 EXP.]"

\'I still can\'t open the 5th Gate of Heavenly Gates even after I convert all of my pills..\' He sights but after a moment a wicked smile creeped out on his face.
