The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 965: Chapter 965: Are They Going to Force Their Way Through the Valley of Death?

Finlay Murphy!

That dazed middle-aged man, a predecessor of the ancient Murphy Family, a person from ten thousand years ago!

Ten thousand years, oceans turn to mulberry fields, an immensely long era.

How many years of history does the human world have?

The clearly recorded past only spans three to four thousand years. Beyond that, everything fades into myth and legend.

Although the history of the Barbaric Wilderness Realm is even more ancient, ten thousand years still transform the landscape profoundly, so much that it blurs memories.

The great war between the Human Race and the Demon Race, the mighty ancient houses that once existed—were they real, or merely legends passed down through generations?

Now, a man who should have died ten thousand years ago was actually alive and well!

Leaving aside whether he’s an Immortal or not, he’s a living, breathing fossil!

Due to the two True Dragons of the True Dragon Secret Realm, everyone in the Barbaric Wilderness Realm has confirmed the existence of the Immortal Realm. However, how Finlay Murphy could live for ten thousand years was still of great interest to everyone.

Moreover, Finlay Murphy appeared beside the severing of the Immortal Realm’s Sky-Piercing Array; could he be related to the ancient Immortals who cut apart the passageway between the realms over ten thousand years ago?

How much does he know about this event?

Finding him could uncover the dust-covered history of ten thousand years past and reveal many secret and lost tales, which were crucial for reopening the channel between the Barbaric Wilderness Realm and the Immortal Realm!

Carson Flores had seen him once before in the Valley of Death, but then he vanished without a trace. Unexpectedly, he had resurfaced now.

”Where did he appear?”

”Outside the Valley of Death.”

With an excited and longing expression, Situ Xiu said, ”Ever since you escaped from the Valley of Death that day with the news that Finlay Murphy was still alive, people have been wandering around the outskirts of the Valley of Death. Ever since you emerged from the Dragon Secret Realm, confirming the existence of the Immortal Realm and the existence of the Sky-reaching Formation in the Valley of Death sliced open by an Immortal, even more Cultivators have gathered there.”

”In this period, some Cultivators have even risked entering the Valley of Death, but either they dare not delve into its core area or they vanish without trace, presumably having met with strong enemies and met their demise.”

”A month ago, many saw Finlay Murphy outside the Valley of Death. His movement technique was ghostly; no one could catch up to him. It seemed he was searching for something, acting all obsessed and erratic, appearing multiple times.”

”Once the news spread, countless Sects sent out their experts in droves, rushing toward the Valley of Death. I heard that they did so not only in pursuit of Finlay Murphy but also to rally the forces of the various parties to explore the Valley of Death.”

Carson Flores’s eyes widened. ”Are they planning to force their way through the Valley of Death?”

Situ Xiu nodded. ”That’s what I’ve heard. Apparently, they haven’t entered yet; those who arrived early are based outside the Valley of Death, searching for traces of Finlay Murphy while waiting for the arrival of powerful experts from other Sects. After all, the Valley of Death is not to be taken lightly. If a Sect were to go there alone, it might not be much different from seeking death.”

Interest piqued, Carson Flores said, ”So you’re saying if I leave now, I might still make it in time?”

Situ Xiu, with a smile, said, ”You should be able to make it. After all, the Barbarian Wilderness is vast, and it takes time for the news to spread and the Sects to assemble.”

”Exploring the Valley of Death and examining the severed Sky-reaching Formation is not a private matter for any one Sect, so there’s no need for a single Sect to take the risk alone.”

”There’s strength in numbers. Even if we encounter dangers, the ability to resist them is somewhat stronger. Even if we can’t cross the Valley of Death unharmed, getting out in one piece isn’t bad either.”

Carson Flores, with a smile, asked, ”Aren’t you going to have a look?”

Situ Xiu replied with a wry smile, ”One must know one’s own limitations. With my level of power, the outer periphery is fraught with danger, let alone the core area. I’d rather live my life peacefully. Ascension is far too remote for me.”

After Situ Xiu left, Carson Flores fell into deep thought. After a while, he made up his mind!

He would go and take a look! With so many Sects in action, such a grand event was not to be missed. If something did happen, even if he wasn’t the fastest to escape, he would definitely be among the first batch to get away.

Although Carson Flores’s power fell far short of ascension to Immortality, places of great peril often coincided with vast opportunities.

Top-tier Spiritual Medicine, top-tier magical treasures, Ancient Inheritance...

Carson Flores was currently stuck at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection. Although he still had three Enlightenment Fruits, he dared not use them, feeling as though even if he consumed more Enlightenment Fruits without a proper direction, they would be of no use.

Carson Flores returned the Earth Core Magma Fire to Killian Jaramillo and informed her of his plans.

”Are you going?”

Killian Jaramillo hesitated before saying, ”Forget it, I won’t add to the chaos. I’ve had some insights recently and might make a breakthrough. I’d rather focus on my closed-door cultivation.”

Carson Flores nodded and did not insist. After all, no one knew what dangers exploring the Valley of Death might bring, and even Carson Flores couldn’t guarantee he would return alive.

Since ancient times, have there not been many powerful Cultivators and favored sons of heaven who have fallen in various Secret Realms and forbidden lands?

Cultivators, defying the heavens, find life within death!

Carson Flores decided to set off immediately. Besides, with this news spreading far and wide, his senior brothers and sisters, or even his master, might also head there.
