The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1095: Chapter 1095: One Person Becomes Immortal, Immortality Extends to Chickens and Dogs

”Master, did you manage to gather the Xuanwu Sky Scale Fruit in the end?”

Daxton Campbell nodded, took out a Xuanwu Sky Scale Fruit from his space, and the moment the fruit appeared, the air instantly filled with an intoxicating fragrance.

The fragrance was not strong, but it was extremely refreshing, like taking a breath that made one’s whole body feel comfortable and every cell seemed to be leaping in jubilation.

This was an instinctive reaction directly from the body.

”There’s a grove of Xuanwu Sky Scale Trees, seven of which bore fruit. Unfortunately, I only managed to ripen one before I was discovered and pursued, leaving no chance to ripen and pick the others.”

Carson Flores asked curiously, ”What are the effects of the Xuanwu Sky Scale Fruit?”

Daxton Campbell responded, ”Legend has it that the Xuanwu Sky Scale Tree was originally a tree from the Immortal Realm, and the Xuanwu Sky Scale Fruit an Immortal Fruit, capable of transforming one’s physique. It’s like cleansing the marrow and changing bones, extending one’s lifespan, similar to the legendary Peaches of Immortality...”

Carson Flores instantly understood and said in realization, ”A low-end version... oh, the Barbaric Wilderness Realm’s version of the Peaches of Immortality?”

Daxton Campbell nodded, ”Ancient records state that the Xuanwu Sky Scale Trees grow in a very unique environment, and the fruit holds no effect until it ripens. I searched through numerous ancient texts and found that there’s a Xuanwu Sky Scale Tree on an island in the Sea of Annihilation.”

”Entering the Sea of Annihilation is very dangerous, and more importantly, the Xuanwu Sky Scale Fruit has a very short window of time in which it remains ripe. So unless one’s fortune is extraordinarily good, it’s very hard to safely enter the Sea of Annihilation and happen upon a ripe Xuanwu Sky Scale Fruit.”

”I knew you had the Life Essence Pearl, capable of ripening the fruit, so I contemplated trying my luck. Little did I know that there would be Immortal Slaves on the island. However, luckily, despite the dangers, the expedition wasn’t in vain, and there were some gains to be had.”

Carson Flores requested, ”Master, could you draw us a map?”

Daxton Campbell asked, ”Do you want to go right now?”

Carson Flores said with a smile, ”With Cristopher Hopkins Immortal here, I don’t think there will be much of a problem.”

After listening to Carson Flores’ account, Daxton Campbell knew that even a single hand of Cristopher Hopkins Immortal was more than a match for Immortal Slaves. Previously, he had rescued Carson Flores from numerous terrifying ancient creatures in the Eternal Tombfield, so he wasn’t too worried.

Moreover, he also believed in Carson’s fate. Even without Cristopher Hopkins Immortal, he thought there might be other twists of fate that would ensure Carson came back unscathed.

”Good!”

Daxton Campbell then inquired, ”Would you need me to accompany you?”

Assisting an Immortal in revival was a chance for celestial fate that Daxton Campbell naturally wanted to strive for.

Carson turned his head to glance at his shoulder, Cristopher Hopkins Immortal’s finger wagged as a sign of refusal.

Carson apologized with a smile, ”It’s okay for me to accompany her. I have the Ground Shrinking Technique; I’m quick to escape. The Immortal Slaves may not even catch me.”

Daxton Campbell nodded readily, ”Alright, then I’ll draw the map for you.”

Since Cristopher Hopkins Immortal refused, then let it be. After all, Carson had enough celestial fate.

When one turns Immortal, their fortune spreads even to their chickens and dogs.

There were only five people in the lineage of Nutwood Mountain, and if Carson truly obtained the chance to become an Immortal, he surely wouldn’t forget these few people. Even if he couldn’t help them attain Immortality, granting them a status like that of Immortal Slaves, with lifespans of ten thousand years, wouldn’t be too difficult, would it?

Daxton Campbell finished the map and handed it to Carson, taking special care to remind him, ”The island filled with mist is very large, easy to get lost and lose one’s sense of direction inside, and spiritual power is restricted, greatly diminishing one’s strength. If not necessary, it’s best not to enter.”

”I got it, Master.”

Carson stored the map, then asked with a smile, ”Didn’t you say there are a few more Xuanwu Sky Scale Fruits that aren’t ripe yet? If we’re successful, maybe we can have a good harvest. How many fruits are needed for the life-extending effect, or can the effect be stacked?”

”One is enough,” Daxton Campbell replied. ”If you eat more than one, the effects can be stacked, but the increase is diminishing, not multiplicative.”

With this explanation, Carson understood. Assuming one Xuanwu Sky Scale Fruit extended life by five hundred years, eating two wouldn’t result in a thousand years, but perhaps eight hundred. And with each additional fruit, the incremental effect decreased even more.

”Why don’t you eat it, Master?” Carson inquired with a smile.

Daxton Campbell replied with a smile, ”My lifespan is still long enough; there’s no rush. The Xuanwu Sky Scale Fruit can also treat very severe injuries when the time comes, and it can save lives.”

Carson then realized, ”Indeed, there is no rush to consume it.”

After a pause, Carson asked, ”About the Demon Ancestor...”

Daxton Campbell answered calmly, ”Although the Demon Ancestor has acquired some Immortal powers as a Great Witch, he is still not an Immortal. The clashes between the Demon Race and the Human Race never hinge on the lower or even the middle tiers; it’s always the outcomes of the top-tier battles that decide everything.”

”You’ve been recognized by the Emperor Seal as the new Human Emperor, but your power is limited for now, so you don’t need to worry about these things. If possible, help Cristopher Hopkins Immortal to revive sooner, improve your strength, or even become an Immortal.”

”As long as your strength is sufficient, even if the Demon Race has swallowed several provinces, even if the Demon Race is at the gates, you could easily drive them back to where they came from...”
