Within Ace's true soul, all the Heavenly Soul Qi was getting absorbed by the red soul core, making it even brighter, and its color started to change into a deeper, brighter color. Furthermore, its size also started to grow as its color were getting brighter.
After an unknown time passed, the fiery red color finally started to appear golden, and when all the heavenly soul Qi was fully absorbed by the core, there was no trace of red left on it.
Because now, it was fully golden like a blazing sun, illuminating the entire true soul in golden, and it was filled with powerful soul Qi.
The Soul Qi was now bright golden. At this moment, the golden soul Qi started to get absorbed by the Eternal Thief Fate Compass, and the treasure aura became more ethereal and majestic while the soul thief sword soul core remained dormant.
Right at this moment, Ace's thief sense suddenly started to grow from 3 miles radius… 4 miles… 5 miles… and it finally stopped at a 7-mile radius!
But this was far from over because a crimson soul core started to form around the golden soul core, just like the purple, white, and green soul cores, and started to revolve around the massive heavenly golden soul core.
At this moment, Ace's entire demeanor change as his aura climbs to new heights, and all his exhaustion is long washed away. Now he was feeling power on a whole different level than before.
System's voice rang in his mind at this moment,

Ace was quite surprised when he saw he got two secret skills of both martial and soul, this time after he completed the breakthrough process. Furthermore, the new ability also appeared quite peculiar.
However, he wasn't done with his breakthrough as he looked on the horizon, 'There's still time before they come, so I just go and get it over with.'
His lips rose in a dark smile as he ordered, "System, use the Qi stones and the Soul crystals to fill with EXP and SP bars until the 9th stages!"
With Ace's current wealth, he didn't need to use any of his treasures, and just the Qi stones and soul crystals were enough to fill the EXP, and SP needed to break into the next realm.
Furthermore, he didn't need to consolidate his cultivation at all, and the time of holding back was no past. So, he was going to enter the ninth stages of both realms right away so he could focus on other things while he was heading towards the Azure Wind Continent.
His gains this time were massive, and he needed all the precious time he could get to absorb them to the fullest. Only then will he be completely sure to rescue Alina!
The system followed his command, and Ace again started to experience a massive surge in power.
After he was done, his dark soul, which had been vague and blurry before, was now almost vivid and far more imposing than before, while the lightning sea was even more concentrated.
As for the soul core, it was also quite denser, and his thief sense was now 21 miles radius from the initial 7 miles.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFeeling even more powerful and on top of the world, he quickly checked his status after a very long time.
