The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1382: Chapter 1382: Advancement! Golden Body Manifestation!

”I lured out her husband and after an intense battle, I finally killed him. However, as he lay dying, he used a secret technique to send a message, which led to me being pursued by the powerful members of his Sect.”

”At that time, my strength wasn’t overwhelming. I was chased to a dead end and nearly killed, when Charlotte Roth suddenly appeared, sacrificing her own life and a secret treasure to save me.”

”Severely wounded and with Charlotte Roth on the brink of death, we hid in a cave. We finally clarified the words we hadn’t said in our lifetimes, but it was already too late.”

”After Charlotte Roth’s death, I carried her corpse with me as I continued to flee, leaving the Thunder Immortal Realm. Later, I became stronger and capable of revenge, but I could not find the enemy.”

”I killed someone’s Sect disciple, and it was only right for them to chase after me. As for her husband, who abused her, he was already killed by my hand. Who else should I kill?”

”Before she died, she wished to be buried in a quiet place full of flowers and trees, undisturbed. I eventually brought her back to the Thunder Immortal Realm, folded this portion of the world, and settled her in the Heart Valley.”

”I planted flowers and peach trees that she liked, and set up a Formation. Here, flowers bloom all year round. Fearing that she would be lonely, I left behind an incarnation of my Primordial Spirit to accompany her as she sleeps in the Black Stone Coffin.”

”When I established the Heart Valley Barrier, I originally planned to set a one-way Barrier, completely preventing entry. If anyone tried to force their way in, it would destroy this folded pocket of the world along with it. But at the last moment, I hesitated.”

”I wasn’t sure if I would ever come back here, so I created a backdoor. After I set it up, I carelessly threw the key to this place, the Stele, letting it be covered by the earth.”

”Let alone others, even if I returned myself, it would probably be quite difficult to find it. But who could have guessed that you would discover it in such a manner...”

Alvin Bernard’s story came to an end, his expression filled with wistfulness.

Carson Flores didn’t know how to console him and after a moment’s thought said, ”Even though the story ends in tragedy, at least in the final moments, your hearts were united, and misunderstandings were resolved, realizing that you both loved each other. That moment alone is better than never having cleared up those misunderstandings at all.”

Alvin Bernard gave a bitter smile: ”Sometimes I’d rather she didn’t love me, at least then she might still be alive...”

Carson Flores sighed, ”In life, there is often more dissatisfaction than contentment. I have been separated from my parents since birth, pursuing them through the Barbarian Wilderness to the Immortal Realm, and to this day, I still haven’t resolved this matter. Alvin Bernard, are you familiar with the Soul Separation Technique?”

Alvin Bernard shook his head, ”I’ve heard of it, but I really don’t know it; otherwise, I could have taught it to you.”

Carson Flores was slightly disappointed, but then smiled, ”No matter, as long as it exists, there will come a day when I’ll learn it.”

Alvin Bernard looked at Carson Flores and suddenly smiled, ”This is nothing but a tomb, and I am merely an incarnation of a Primordial Spirit, without a proper gift to present you. Seeing that you possess a Phenomenon Seed and are almost done merging it, let me give you a helping hand!”

Carson Flores’s eyes widened in surprise, ”Thank you, senior!”

Alvin Bernard raised his hand and pointed, and a streak of golden light flashed, directly entering Carson Flores’s heart.

In an instant, Carson Flores felt as if he had been injected with a shot of adrenaline; his heart began to beat wildly and grew more vigorous than ever before.

With each powerful beat, a stream of pure energy surged through the bloodstream, instantly flooding every part of his body, while inside his heart, tumultuous changes were taking place.

The previous Phenomenon Seed of the Eight-Armed Arhat had become faintly fused with Carson Flores’s heart. Now, under the stimulation of this pure energy, not only did it accelerate the merging process, but it also grew vigorously and even underwent a transformation.

Carson Flores focused his mind solely on absorbing this vibrant energy.

Time seemed to lose its meaning as suddenly, there came a powerful palpitation from Carson Flores’s heart.

The Phenomenon Seed incessantly absorbed energy, eventually growing to its limit, and then underwent a transformation from quantitative to qualitative change.

Carson Flores had never used the Abnormal Phenomenon, but he was keenly aware that the Phenomenon had advanced!

Lilianna Norman had said that the first stage of the Eight-Armed Arhat was called the Virtual Manifestation, and the second stage, the Golden Body Manifestation. Simply put, the first stage Manifestation is like a shadow, while the second stage is like the Golden Body Arhat in temples, solid and substantial, where each action potentially increases power by a hundredfold!

After the frenzied palpitation, the Phenomenon gradually stopped growing, and during this process, Carson Flores fully understood the principle behind the growth and advancement of the Phenomenon.

Energy!

The Phenomenon Seed needed a large amount of energy to take root and sprout. The larger it grew, the more energy it needed, and only with enough energy could a small sapling grow into a grand tree, becoming a towering entity that supported the heavens and obscured the sun.

Carson Flores opened his eyes, which had turned a dazzling golden color, and a majestic and commanding aura instantly enveloped the entire Heart Valley, as if he were a deity.
