[This week’s 1st Bonus Chapter of 500 Powerstons (28-10-2022)]

[2nd Bound Chapter at 1000]

Winter opened her eyes when she heard Ace’s stern voice and growled, “Are you planning to save those demons? If yes, then give up.”

“Do you think I’m a savior?” Ace scoffed.

“Then that’s good to know.” Winter seemed to be relieved after she heard that and said, “Since you didn’t want to save them, then why do you want to know about the corpse army? Perhaps, are you interested in creating your own corpse army?”

Ace’s voice turned cold at this moment. “If you continue to beat around the bush, do you believe I’ll throw you out right now?”

He could tell this fox didn’t want to reveal the information about the corpse army for some reason, and that’s why she kept talking in circles.

But he didn’t care about this ghastly inheritance and all he wanted to know about the dead orb-guardian and where was the elemental orb!

Before, Winter was wounded, and he also had a mission to take care of, so he let this matter rest, but now he won’t since Winter was now awake and he had time to spare.

Winter sensed Ace was impenitent about something and she remembered he told her about there was something quite important he wanted from that ruin.

In the end, she decided to give him what he wants because Ace has the support of a God, so why did he want to walk on this nefarious path? She also had a new path ahead of her now, and if she completed this mission, she could reach far greater heights than her previous self.

But first, she had to let her past self go, who was once betrayed and didn’t trust anyone ever since.

Ace and the other two members can’t scheme against her, so there wasn’t any need to keep suspecting them. On the contrary, if she made Ace unhappy, she had no idea what kind of authority he had as a leader in this place. Just the ability to send her out and let her into this magical space can speak of how high Ace’s control was over them.

That’s why she gave up!

A thick book appeared in front of her, which had a worn-out appearance.

She sighed as looked at the thick, worn-out book with complicated emotions in her eyes.

She speaks, “Over eight hundred years ago, I was sent here as a spy with another member of my clan. We even succeeded in infiltrating deep into the demon continent. But when we were heading to the blade province, we suddenly stumbled upon the ruin and decided to explore it.

“After we spend half a year exploring this ruin, we found an unknown passage, and my companion volunteered to scout it. After making sure there wasn’t danger, we went together, but who would’ve thought the person who I consider as close as my sister will scheme against me!” Thick killing intent rage in her beastly eyes.

“In her scouting, she had discovered a treasure at the end of the passage, but a special kind of array was protecting it. She was a runic genius, so she knew her way around the arrays.

“I was naïve to think she thought of me as her sister as well and walk right into that array when she told me she had already dispelled it, but it wasn’t. The moment I enter that array, she took the treasure, and I got trapped instead.” She gnashed her teeth with hatred.

“For years I was trapped in that darkness, and many times I consider committing suicide, but whenever I remembered that scheming bitch face and how she could be enjoying riches, I would hesitate.

“It was then when I start hearing voices filled with the temptation of power and revenge…” She had a forlorn look in her eyes at this moment.

Ace couldn’t help but said, “It was that dark mist?”

“Yes. It told me it was the same as me and wanted to give me the entire inheritance and passed away without any regrets. I wasn’t in my best state at that time, so I believed it and didn’t resist the ‘inheritance’. It was probably then when it entered my knowledge sea in the sham of giving me its power.

“It also left me this book with everything I need to know about the inheritance and the special space that belonged to its tribe once. As for that Corpse King, I was supposed to possess its body and then I have a heaven-defying talent and full control over the corpse army hidden beneath that lake. I even refine corpse acolytes, so when the time comes I would easily raise anyone to the ground who comes between me and my revenge.

“But it seemed I was doing all this for someone else and the moment I control over that Corpse King’s body, that soul will take control over me since I would be in a vulnerable state.

“Everything I knew about the Corpse Demon Tribe is in this book. You can have it. I don’t need it any longer.” She said in a resolute tone.

Ace’s deep voice rang, “Why did a corpse possess consciousness, and why can’t you take control of that army without it?”

“The Corpse King was a special existence which was made from something called a ‘Nature Deity’ according to this book and the corpse demon tribe didn’t have resources to make a perfect corpse king so they make this half-complete product.

“That’s why to control it, one needed to refine it and possess it, but this is a double-edged sword because according to the records the Corpse King’s conscious can’t be erased and if you show even the slightest weakness, it will devour your soul and take back the control of its body.

“As for the corpse army, it was made especially with the method, which needs a corpse king to control. If someone tries to take control of the corpse acolytes without a corpse king, they will have a tremendous burden on their mind and body.

“Furthermore, those corpses can grow as they devour the living and as they grew, it becomes hard to control them if you didn’t increase your power as well. That’s where a corpse king comes into the picture that put a little burden on your mind and you can suppress it and also the other corpse with it.

“I had to say those demons were lunatics because every generation the strongest of them will possess this Corpse King and rule the tribe. It was the symbol of power and consider the biggest honor in their tribe.” She sneered with killing intent.

Ace also felt this Corpse Demon Tribe had something wrong with their brain since they dare to play with corpses and risk their lives for an unstable power.

“Why happen to them? They seemed quite powerful?” Ace questioned.

In his view, although this tribe was made of madmen, they were extremely strong and developed just the techniques to refine the corpse army and the corpse king can make them invincible in this world.

He still didn’t forget about that dark mist’s threat, it left before the system destroyed it.

This tribe might have deeper roots than any other demon tribe, and he didn’t want to be an enemy with them if he had a choice.

Winter shook her head. “There weren’t any records about this. It was like they all vanished into thin air. I was never able to find out about this but, that bitchy mist seemed to be sure they were still alive and well. I’m looking forward to meeting with them once I cultivate into higher realms. Furthermore, I’ll make them regret even scheming against me!”

The one thing that Winter hates most is someone scheming against her, despite her being the same.

The book suddenly vanished at this moment and Ace’s pacifying voice rang, “Don’t worry, we’ll make them pay if they appeared. Just focus on getting better. I’ll send those pills your way in a few hours. Remember, you are not alone anymore.”

Winter sighed with uncertainty. She said nothing and close her eyes. She knew what Ace said was true, and she wasn’t willing to let this chance slip by.

Outside,

Ace looked at the old book in his hand and stored it away for now. He was still traveling toward the deep parts of the demon continent.

He’ll first find a place to lie low before he read it and he might discover some clue about the elemental orb.

But after listening to Winter, he didn’t have high hopes, since this ‘Nature Deity’ seemed to die a long time ago. He had no idea where it died and who to take the Ice Orb afterward.

This was getting more and more complicated and he only hoped that the orb was still in this world or he would be in big trouble!



While Ace was crossing the mist province,

The Mist Castle wasn’t so calm at this moment.

Today, Mist Demon King returned abruptly, and with her was none other than Blade Demon King and some young demons and blade envoys!
