Chapter 1177: Investing in a Thief! (2)
Afterward, Elder Dewey told Ace about the dual runic talent, and Ace was astounded and grimaced as he understood its implications.
Not only that, he even regretted showing off slightly, but he can’t be blamed since he had no idea that there was such a thing as runic smiths and rune crafters back in the Mortal Sky
Heaven.
Furthermore, when Elder Dewey told him about the part about only the Sect Leader, the Artifact Guardian Master, the Sect Leader of the AIG Sect also being a Dual Runic Talent, which made him eligible to fight for the same position, he finally understands why both elders were telling them to hide his Rune Crafting talent for the time being.
Even he could tell how those four clans would react if they found out an outsider could overthrow their absolute control over the sect-he was a tiebreaker!
But what truly shocked him was the next topic, which was the fire spirits and the reality behind Chuchu’s flames being a growth-type fire spirit. When found, a hidden killing intent surfaces in Ace’s eyes. Even the Artifact Guardian Master might be compelled to act if he found out Chuchu had a growth-type spirit fire.
However, when both elders assured him that Lloyd didn’t know about this, that this information was only privy to sect elders and core disciples, and that it was almost impossible to tame a growth-type fire spirit, he calmed down a little.
From what Ace could tell, both elders had upright characters and were completely loyal to the sect, so he believed them for now. Still, he had already decided not to show off Chuchu’s spirit fire anymore since if someone with ill intentions finds out or reports it to the four clans; they will do anything to capture Chuchu.
Moreover, Ace was pretty sure that Cyrus also had the same spirit fire and was even stronger than Chuchu’s, or she wouldn’t have willingly submitted to him. He even thought about sending them back to the thief’s space, but he knew it wasn’t fair to both of them.
After all, Cyrus had already suffered because of his lack of awareness and common sense, all because Ace was sheltering him too much. At least he didn’t want him to be ignorant and observe what he does all the time so he wouldn’t be reckless in the future.
However, at this moment, Elder Homer revealed something that instantly caught Ace’s attention.
“You can’t keep your magic beast exposed all the time, especially with her uniqueness. Although I don’t recognize her race, the same couldn’t be said for the others, especially the upper echelon of the sect. They might’ve had records about her race and fire spirit.
“So, you should consider learning an Upper Sky Ascensions Grade Spell of Beast Tamer path called the Beast Law Channel. This will allow you to keep your contracted spirit beasts in your inner cultivation space just like a spirit weapon!”
Ace was astounded and quickly posed a follow-up question, “Is that even possible?”
Ace knew the importance of this method since he knew a spirit weapon could share all his senses and vision and interact with him easily. After all, Moira was an example of this, not to mention that Avos had also told him the same thing.
Furthermore, Cyrus was already under the Master and Servant Pack, with him implicated by the system when he was born, which was different from a Beast Contract, but he still wanted to try if it meant he could keep them out of the thief’s space.
Elder Homer solemnly nodded before he clarified, “It is indeed true. The Beast Tamer Path is one of the top soul paths in existence, and its methods are mysterious and deadly. They tame powerful magic beasts and then use their powers as their own, and they all have extremely powerful souls but equally weak physiques. They walked on a completely different path than ours and kept their secrets very close.
“But the spell Beast Law Channel can be used by other Law States, and any second-grade sect would have a copy of it. This spell is a ritual type and can only be used once. It will open a Beast Law Channel in your soul and then allow you to take your contracted magic beast into your inner cultivation space.
“However, don’t think that you can keep as many magic beasts as the size of your inner space. You can only keep a magic beast inside that your true soul allows and within its limit.
“The maximum limit of magic beasts an Ascension Martial Soldier can keep in its martial inner space is 8 elemental beasts or 2 law state spirit magic beasts in the same realm. While an Ascension Soul Soldier can keep twice that amount with the addition of a single 1 ascension warrior of 1-Star.
“Cross this limit, and one will suffer a terrible backlash, or in worst cases, their true soul will burst, meaning certain death!
“But this limit is not absolute; this can vary if you include different factors like powerful souls, fantastic physiques, fantastic meridians, bloodline, and even races. The limit I told you is of humans, and rarely anyone surpassed them unless they walked the path of a beast tamer.”
Ace’s eyes shimmered with intense light as he knew he needed to get his hands on this damn spell no matter what and then try to see if he could keep Cyrus and Chuchu within his own inner space.
Furthermore, Ace knew he should have a high limit, far more than what Elder had told him, because there were simply too many factors involved with his true soul, and his cultivation was anything but ordinary.
“Can you teach me this Beast Law Channel Spell, Lord Elder? I’ll be eternally grateful to you. I can’t put my friends in danger.” George quickly bowed his head in a pleading tone.
“Friends, huh?” Elder Homer seemed pleased with George’s way of thinking as he approved of his attitude.
‘Although he’s cunning and shrewd, he cares about his bounds even if that bond is with a beast. He’s exactly what the sect needs to rise.’
Elder Dewey also nodded approvingly with a gentle smile as he replied to George’s question since he knew his old friend wouldn’t be able to explain clearly.

“I’m afraid Elder Homer won’t be able to teach any spells belonging to the sect, and neither can I. It’s not like we don’t want to, but as long as you are not an official member of the sect, we can’t share any knowledge that is considered ‘sect knowledge,’ and all the elders are the
same.
“Know this: It is a security measure to keep the sects’ secrets from being exposed to outsiders, and you’ll know once you join our ranks. But don’t worry: Once you enter the sect, you’ll get a chance to enter the Sect Knowledge Spectrum, and you can easily select the Beast Law Channel Spell.
“For now, just don’t use your friend’s fire spirit, and I advise you to leave them here when you’re going to take the test and then come back to fetch them. I can guarantee their safety in
the Weston Clan.”
‘So, they are under some kind of contract? Is it related to the seals on the memories I’ve been seeing lately? Well, since I can get that spell once I enter the sect, there is no need to keep pressing. As for leaving these two here, not in a million years…’
Ace didn’t even entertain that thought since he could just temporarily keep them in the thief’s space while pretending to leave them in the wild.
“I understand.”
Elder Dewey nodded again at George, quickly regaining his calm, “Then let us begin your training. I can only teach my own knowledge and insights, and we have only a month to get you ready, so we can’t waste even a little time. So, you have to bear with it until you can forge a lower ascension grade-1 weapon!”
Ace agreed without hesitation, “Don’t worry, please be worry-free, Lord Elder. I can take it
all!”
Just like that, his training began, and unbeknownst to both elders, they were literally investing in a thief so he could enter their home!freeweɓnøvel.com
