The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 840: Chapter 840: If You Can’t Beat Them, You Must Outrun Them!

The Golden Core shattered, the Nascent Soul formed.

Carson Flores ”saw” the lively purple little figure inside his Dantian, his heart stirring with excitement.

The Nascent Soul was indeed a sign of a true Cultivator expert. The most obvious change was the ability to fly without the Flying Sword as a vessel, the body could soar freely like a bird, no longer worrying about falling off the sword.

Although he couldn’t exactly assess how much his strength had improved, it was at least many times greater than when he had achieved Golden Core Great Perfection.

”Congratulations on entering the Nascent Soul!”

Carson Flores responded with a smile, ”To avoid a beating, I’ve got to work hard.”

Delaney Hunter laughed, ”While Cultivation shouldn’t stop, there’s no need to rush it. With your Nascent Soul Strength combined with your Sword Bone, you already have the ability to protect yourself and can travel freely outside.”

Carson Flores nodded, ”That’s indeed my plan. I intend to visit Heavenly Mountain and Rajevols to see my wife. We’ve been separated so long, they might not even know I’ve come to the Barbaric Wilderness Realm.”

Shirley Miller should be fine considering she returned from Rajevols not long ago. They fought side by side and envisioned their future journey. She knew he would enter Nutwood Mountain and was aware that he would eventually come to the Barbaric Wilderness Realm. However, Samantha Tate might not know, nor was it certain if Isabella Roth had told her about his possession of the Heaven’s Prophecy jade.

Besides, Carson Flores also missed them and wanted to see them and make sure they were doing well.

Now with Carson Flores’s strength and his identity as a Direct Disciple of Daxton Campbell, he could stand tall and speak his mind in either Rajevols or Heavenly Mountain, without fear of anyone.

Delaney Hunter, who knew about Carson Flores’s love story, smiled and agreed, ”You really should go, even though it is quite distant.”

Carson Flores replied with a grin, ”First, I’ll prepare some elixirs. On the journey with the Flying Boat, I’ll just continue my cultivation. Sharpening the axe won’t delay the chopping of firewood—after all, isn’t it Cultivation everywhere?”

Delaney Hunter nodded, ”That’s a good approach. On the way, you can visit Heavenly Mountain first, then Rajevols, and finally turn towards the True Dragon Secret Realm. That way, you won’t waste time going back and forth.”

Carson Flores asked, ”Will you go?”

Delaney Hunter laughed, ”I’ll stay behind. Since you’ve been elected as the team leader by others, you guys are a unit. No one should be able to bully you.”

Carson Flores said with slight regret, ”Then it will be a long time before we see each other again.”

Delaney Hunter slapped Carson Flores’s arm heartily, ”In Cultivation, there are no years. A separation of a year or half will pass in the blink of an eye. Don’t worry too much, just focus on moving forward.”

”Alright!”

Carson Flores didn’t just pick up and leave, instead, he returned to his Cave Mansion and began to plant a large quantity of Spiritual Medicine.

After delegation the Cultivation tasks to the Tree Demon Plum Woman, Carson Flores chose to enter seclusion himself.

He had been busy increasing his strength recently and hadn’t had the chance to comprehend many things.

Like the Ground Shrinking Technique from Adelaide Bautista, the Life and Death Art from his eldest senior brother, the Emperor Scripture Human Scroll and Earth Scroll from his master, the Emperor’s Sutra Heaven Scroll from his father, and that rebellious and untamed Emperor Seal...

Benson Bernard had given Carson Flores the Life and Death Art before, which initially felt like passing on his last words. However, once the danger passed, Carson Flores tried to return the Life and Death Art but was refused by Benson Bernard.

Benson Bernard told Carson Flores that he had fully grasped the Life and Death Art and keeping it wouldn’t serve him any good, so he gifted it to Carson Flores and shared the secrets of his successful practice of the art.

He needed to understand the words, observe the shapes, and especially grasp the meaning behind each stroke and each character, especially the Taoist Charm within the Dharma method, which is the true essence of the Mark of Life and Death.

Carson Flores first chose to continue delving into the Great Secret Technique, the Ground Shrinking Technique. This was his ace in the hole for escaping danger and had to be prioritized.

If he couldn’t win a fight, he certainly must be able to run away!

Having advanced a major Realm in strength, when Carson Flores further studied the Ground Shrinking Technique, he found completely new insights.

He could sense everything more clearly, gaze at the mystical pattern for longer periods, and his comprehension grew increasingly profound.

After studying for about ten days, his mastery of the Ground Shrinking Technique significantly improved. If before he had only grasped two to three-tenths of the technique and its application was arduous, he now had at least half the technique within his grasp, with the application becoming much smoother. With one step, the distance he could move had doubled.

Setting aside the Ground Shrinking Technique, Carson Flores picked up the Life and Death Art, read it several times, memorized the contents and various Dharma Seals, but couldn’t find any effect—it had the shape without the essence.

The Life and Death Art indeed wasn’t something that could be easily broken through.

Carson Flores wasn’t surprised by the outcome, considering that even a Cultivation genius like Daxton Campbell hadn’t figured it out.

Temporarily leaving the Life and Death Art aside, he finally turned to study the Emperor Sovereign Scripture.

The Emperor Sovereign Scripture wasn’t lengthy; it was more like an overarching guideline for Cultivation, akin to the foundation stone of the Tao and the rules of the Tao. As long as one comprehended these rules, they could create various Cultivation Techniques based on this foundation, and these techniques wouldn’t conflict with the Emperor Sovereign Scripture.

As Carson Flores studied the Emperor Sovereign Scripture, a sudden idea struck him.

The Emperor Sovereign Scripture was created by the Human Emperor, and the Emperor Seal was the Human Emperor’s magical treasure and a symbol of his identity. What if he used the Emperor Sovereign Scripture to drive the Emperor Seal—would there be a slightly different effect?
