Eternal Thief-Novel

Looking at the cavern opening within the wall, Ace frowned because there was still a pathway ahead. So, the existence of this cave was quite strange.

Still, Ace didn't sense any danger from within and decided to enter; his thief sense was already suppressed to only ten meters now so that he couldn't rely on it.

The cavern was three meters in diameter and about two hundred meters deep. When he reached the end, he was surprised because there was nothing inside. However, at the end of the cave wall, there were engravings of mysterious runes on it.

But when Ace saw those runes engraved, he was shocked because he could understand them, for they were not runes but words of a foreign language!

'Could this be the Forsaken language of the abyss?' Ace presumed as he quickly read.

"Congratulations, Trail Taker!

"If you're reading this, you have successfully reached the 25,000-meter depth of the Army Class Trial Abyss and qualify to be a First Class Vampyre Soldier!

"If you are content, you may imbue your Qi into this checkpoint wall, and you'll be instantly sent out from the trial with a Tier-1 Reward!

"But if you want to continue the trial of the Second Class Vampyre Soldier, then you may continue, but there will be no reward if you fail, and failure means death in Vampyre Race!

"So, think carefully before you proceed!"

Ace's eyes shimmered as he didn't expect this at all and thought, 'So, this is the trial I was looking for, and even after entering this deep, I'm only qualified to be a First Class Solider of the Vampyre Race? Truly unbelievable, just how strong were they?'

Ace then tried inspecting the wall, but no matter what method he used, he couldn't see anything special about it, so he gave up, moved out, and continued deeper into the trial abyss!

Although the law restrictions were getting powerful, his comprehension of darkness was also increasing. It was already reaching 49.98%, and once he was at 50%!

This might be a difficult trial or even a death trap for others, but it was a huge opportunity for him. He knew the law of darkness was special and couldn't be comprehended by simple means, so he was not going to miss this chance to strengthen it further.

As Ace went deeper, he could sense that the pressure was rising and even starting to affect the soul. But it was still not enough to stop him.

Walking in the darkness, Ace suddenly fell into a trance, and at this moment, eerie pitch-black enteral energy like flames suddenly gushed out of his body, making the space around him tremble.

This wasn't all, as right after that energy suddenly vanished, Ace felt something click in his mind, and the surrounding restrictions were reduced by 10%. A special feeling arose in his heart as if he could attack anything within this range.

Ace suddenly snapped out of his trance-like state, and his eyes shone with astonishment before ecstasy rose in his heart as he knew what had happened!

At this moment, the system's sudden voice rang.

=====

Ace was surprised when he saw all those notifications, especially when he saw the [Orbit] law appearing within his law states. Furthermore, his law of space also progressed by three percent after he comprehended the orbit intent!

'Could it be the orbit law has something to do with space law?' Ace mused.

But he had more pressing questions, as he quickly asked the system, "System, what is this rule? Is it the mystic ability?"

Ace was quite curious about the mystic abilities, and he had even been trying to awaken them for a while. But he never expected he would awake the Darkness Rule first.

However, he wasn't sure since this was not Mystic Ability but Rule, which seemed to be only used with the Darkness Order, so he was not completely sure. Nonetheless, Ace was feeling quite strong now, and the surrounding laws had becclearer, and the restrictions of this place had been lessened by 10%.

"[Mystic Ability and Rule are different but have a connection. In truth, a mystic ability can only manifest when someone taps deeper into a Law and comprehends its Rules!]

"[All laws have their own unique Rules, and only by comprehending all of them can one truly master a Law!]

"[When someone awakes a mystic ability, this means they had comprehended a Rule Authority of that Law. A Mystic Ability is the manifestation of rule authority that governs a law.]

"[But a Rule Authority can only be comprehended up to 90%! Any further, and that would instantly draw the wrath of heaven because it would then enter the domain of a Law Ruler.]

"[A Law Ruler is someone that can rule a specific law rule with over 90% authority over that rule. It has nothing to fear from another person, even if they can showcase 90% of the power of that rule. But even this Law Ruler has a limit, which is a maximum of up to 98%!]

"[But the Order can bypass this absolute universal restriction and can enable a person to have 100% authority over the power of that rule, making it the Lord of that rule! The host would find more about it as you continue to increase your prowess and comprehend more Darkness!]"

Ace was dumbfounded when he heard this huge revelation. He didn't know that the mystic abilities would have such profound depths to them.

But when he thought about how he would be able to beca Lord of a Rule with the Darkness Order, his heart raced with anticipation.

Now, the mystic abilities have becfar clearer to him than before, and he knew what he needed to do to make progress.

With such thoughts, Ace continues forward. However, he soon noticed that he could no longer comprehend darkness any further despite feeling resonating with it.

He frowned, 'What is going on?'
