Eternal Thief

Ace walked out from the light door, and he was momentarily stunned when he found himself standing at the peak of a small mountain that was surrounded by tall mountains.

'Sixth floor is a mountain range?' Ace mused as he saw the familiar gloomy sky and felt the Qi density was now equivalent to the Royal Demon Institute on this floor.

Still, it didn't matter to Ace as he could easily find the next entrance, even if he were in some maze.

As he previously decided, he was going to enter the next floor on his way now that the Tower Spirit had made up that story about the 'Holy Mark.'

Furthermore, it was also for his own safety since he knew elves on this floor were not as helpless as on the fifth floor. There were probably over twenty Soul Manifestation Realm Elves, especially the top 10 in the ranking board.

Lastly, the Tower Spirit will definitely make the same kind of announcement as it did on the fifth floor or even increase the rewards. So, those high and mighty figures will also join the 'monster hunting.'

So, it was far better to escape than fight with over ten soul manifestation realm experts. It will not only expose his true strength but also increase his thief's identity chance of exposure.

Still, he had to avoid those soul manifestation realm experts' siege first, especially when the light pillar got activated, and the closer he was to the city, the larger the crowd of those elves who wanted to kill him.

'The information on the sixth floor is quite limited, but one thing is clear this is the playground of the Royal Family, and anyone who steps in this place will have to join their alliances.

'Especially the alliances controlled by three children of Elf Queen. They will also be my biggest hurdle, especially if they combine their forces.' Ace's eyes shimmered darkly as he looked in the south direction.

But Ace didn't move and sat down to recover his soul Qi which would only take over half an hour.

He only had less than an hour before the light pillar descended and exposed his location. This will also be a chance for him to see just how many elves want to hunt him after his previous carnage on the fifth floor.

Although he didn't have high expectations since the elves on the sixth floor were quite arrogant, not to mention proud so he knew they would not back down just because he killed those elves since they might look down on them.

Time quickly passed, and Ace had completely recovered his depleted Heavenly Soul Qi. As long as he was only missing either of his Qis, he could recover much quicker than when both of his Qis were exhausted.

But Ace remained in his position as he looked at the greenery down while sitting on top of the mountain peak. He was waiting for the light pillar to descend and confirmed its time again before he moved out.

Because if the Tower Spirit increased the time, then he would have to make his plan according to it.

Precisely an hour later, Ace looked up, and the sky suddenly brightened before the light pillar descended over him.

He sneered coldly, 'It seemed the time hadn't changed.'

However, just three seconds later, Ace felt immense danger after the light pillar activated as his soul sense stirred in alarm.

'How efficient!' He was astonished before a grim look appeared in his eyes because over twenty dangerous life forms were approaching him with the speed of a platinum soul realm cultivator!

Ace didn't have to guess who they were and why they were coming so fast toward him.

'It won't be easy to sneak into the seventh-floor entrance.' Ace sighed bitterly as he stood up.

At this moment, light streaks suddenly appeared with terrifying auras, and all of them were aimed at his vitals.

Ace didn't use his Qi but surrounded himself with a grade-6 protective formation barrier while he remained in his position. He had already gotten used to this light barrier, and he knew it was better to just stay still instead of wasting Qi since no matter how fast he ran, this pillar would follow him.

So, he was just waiting for the light pillar time to end before he moved out. Killing those elves would only alert those high-ranking elves, and they might compel them to work together, which would be a disadvantage to him.

All those light streaks bounced back when they were ten meters away from Ace as they encountered an invisible barrier. Thirty arrows were revealed before they turned back into streaks and bolted in all directions.

Somewhere at the mountain where Ace was standing in a light pillar.

A burly elf had an ugly expression as he looked at the peak while holding a communication cube, "What happened? Why all the arrows were reflected?"

"Something is blocking our arrows from penetrating. I'm afraid it's the Monster's skill!" A helpless voice rang.

"Damn it! I don't care to use everything. We can't let this opportunity slip by. We might not get another chance like this if those royal brats' alliances spotted him! But keep your distance not to reveal your positions. We can't underestimate him!" The burly elf grimly commanded.

"Alright, Boss, you be careful as well. If those alliance words have some truth in them, then we better not provoke that thing too much. Don't get greedy!" The man chuckled.

The burly elf grunted with anger but didn't say anything as he looked at the light pillar with a hint of greed and fear.

The news about the fifth-floor carnage was now already circling around first-rate families, and the royal family members on the sixth floor also didn't hide it from others.

Their purpose was clear; no one should try fighting for the Monster if they didn't want to die and leave the Monster alone for them. They were even providing rewards for his whereabouts.

But some elves didn't believe them since they thought that those royal family members' alliances were deliberately spreading the false news to keep others away from the Monster and hunt him without any competition.

This burly elf also belonged to such a group. Nevertheless, he was still cautious. Now that he saw that the deadly sneak attack got blocked as if nothing had happened, he started to believe those words.

At this moment, another woolly of arrow headed toward the Monster from all directions. But the result was just like before. All those powerful arrows were reflected without the Monster even moving.

Ace merely waited for the light pillar to end, and he didn't have any intention of killing those small fries, and by their cation, he knew they were still measuring his strength and apprehensive of him.

After over ten arrow attacks, the light pillar finally faded away, and without waiting any longer, Ace put the formation back and vanished from his spot like a ghost.

Those elves had ugly yet fearful expressions on their faces, and when they saw the stoic Monster suddenly vanish, their hearts trembled, and they went on high alert, especially the burly elf.

However, they didn't know Ace was already halfway on the mountain and had no intention of getting rid of them!

Three days later,

In the central area of the sixth floor was the tallest mountain peak, and on this peak was built a magnificent city, which was the elven city of the sixth floor.

At this moment, the city was bristling as all the elves were summoned back by their alliances for the special event.

There were five alliances in particular, Red Warriors, Blue Moon, Golden Wolves, Royale Rose, and Royale Bow!

The Royale Rose is the strongest and the alliance leader of non-other than the Crown Elf Princess, Livia!

Followed by the Royale Bow, which belonged to Second Price, Randall, and his younger brother, Third Prince, Jerice.

As for the other three, they were all backed by at least two members of the top ten in ranking lists, and all of them were either family leaders of first-rank families or elders of the royal family's branch.

In the headquarters of the Royale Rose, which was a magnificent towering building,

An otherworldly cold beauty with enthralling features, wearing a white dress with golden patterns, was sitting in a hall at the head seat of a long rectangular table.

There were other elves sitting around that table. They were giving off terrifying auras, especially the elves sitting closest to her.

She was none other than the Crown Elf Princess Livia and also the number one prodigy of the Wise Elf Race and ranked 1st in the Seed Contender Ranking Board!

A handsome elf who was sitting right on Livia's left side spoke with a gentle smile, "Alliance Leader, it's good to have you back."

He was one of the Vice Leaders of Royale Rose, Kyong, and also Rank Fourth on the Ranking Board.

Livia pulled an enthralling smile, instantly brightening up the place as she said in her melodious voice, which sent everyone in the room in a daze, "Thank you!"
