The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1161: Chapter 1161: What grudge, to strike with such ruthlessness

Returning to the Valley of Death once more, the Demonic Beasts relentlessly attacked Carson Flores and his companion, but they couldn’t keep up with Carson’s Ground Shrinking Technique speed.

The two arrived at the peak where the Immortal Slaves used to stand guard. The mountain remained, but the guards were gone.

Carson breathed a sigh of relief internally. If they had encountered an Immortal Slave, they would have had to rely on Cristopher Hopkins Immortal to take action, unless he came up with an excuse to stuff Kash Lam into the Windroll Banner, which would certainly blow their cover.

Kash Lam looked around curiously, ”Where did those Immortal Slaves go?”

Carson chuckled, ”Maybe they left. They were stationed here to watch over the Immortal’s body in the cave. Now that the Immortal’s body has escaped, there is no longer any point for them to stay.”

Kash Lam speculated casually, ”Could they have gone to the Immortal Realm?”

Carson shook his head, ”Impossible. The Immortal body they guarded was stolen by Cultivators, which is a huge mistake in the eyes of Immortals. It’s good enough if they aren’t punished; why would they be taken up to the Immortal Realm?”

”I guess those Immortal Slaves are wandering around the Barbaric Wilderness Realm, gathering information about the Immortal’s body, trying to redeem themselves.”

Kash Lam laughed, ”That does make sense. Speaking of which, they are pretty miserable, having guarded for ten thousand years, only to fail at the last moment. But that suppressed Immortal is really powerful. Only a single arm left, and yet it easily defeated three at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage and then left leisurely...”

Could it not be powerful?

Hadn’t you seen a few days ago, killing a Hollow Void Stage with a single punch?

Instant kill!

You’d better not badmouth the Cristopher Hopkins Immortal; otherwise, if she hears you, you will suffer the consequences.

”The suppressed Immortal must have been a very beautiful woman. Even just an arm was so beautiful. I wonder who was so heartless to dismember such a fair Immortal like that.”

Carson responded vaguely, ”Maybe it was a woman. Perhaps it was out of envy for her beauty, and then someone cruelly struck her down. You know how terrifying a woman’s jealousy can be once aroused.”

Kash Lam agreed wholeheartedly, ”Most likely. Who knows what the grudge was about to take such a ruthless action, suppressing for ten thousand years...”

Carson mumbled internally, I would like to know what the grudge was too, but she won’t tell...

The two proceeded on their way and soon again reached the red hills, returning to the Sea of the Undead.

Carson layered a Death Imprint on himself and Kash Lam, gripped Kash’s hand, and with one step forward, they crossed space instantaneously, appearing inside the massive cavern.

Carson set Kash down, ”Don’t use Spiritual Energy, just walk slowly.”

The Undead behind them swarmed towards them, but as soon as the pair stopped moving, the Undead suddenly lost their target.

This sight shocked Kash Lam.

”What’s going on, can’t they sense us?”

Carson hummed in acknowledgment, ”The Death Imprint has concealed our vitality; they detect intruders by sensing vitality.”

”Death Imprint?”

Kash Lam suddenly snapped back to reality, staring at Carson in astonishment, ”The Mark of Life and Death?”

Carson nodded, ”That’s right.”

Kash Lam looked at Carson exaggeratedly, ”You mastered the Mark of Life and Death?”

Carson shook his head, ”No, I’ve only grasped the Death Imprint that conceals vitality. I’ve yet to understand the rest. Actually, it was during the time after I was sneak attacked and fell into the Sea of the Undead that I suddenly comprehended this from sensing the Undead’s peculiar death aura.”

Kash Lam realized, ”Even so, that’s super impressive. The Mark of Life and Death, in ten million years, only your senior brother has fully comprehended it. Breaking through four stages in a day, he created an unrivaled legend...”

Carson laughed, ”The Death Imprint I’ve comprehended is just a trick to hide vitality. It’s incomparable to my senior brother’s achievement. My development hasn’t increased a bit of my strength, let alone breaking through four stages in one day...”

They made their way along the passage, heading deeper, and once again came to the space filled with magma within the mountain.

Carson, familiar with the route, made his way back through the channel, avoiding several wandering Undead Guards, and then arrived at the location of Erik Jackson.

Kash Lam stared at the thick black Profound Ice in front of him, dumbstruck.

He never expected that the elder that Carson had talked about would be right inside this mountain belly!

So many had come last time and none discovered him, yet Carson, who was attacked alone, turned misfortune into a blessing. Not only did he comprehend the Death Imprint, but he also encountered an Ancient Senior.

Could anyone capable of casting the Absolute Ice Seal and enduring ten thousand years be a common Cultivator?

An absolute Ancient Powerhouse!

Carson called out respectfully, ”Senior, I’m back, are you alright?”

Erik Jackson’s voice came ethereally, ”Still hanging on, won’t die for the time being.”

Carson sighed in relief, ”I’ve found the Spectral Elemental Fire. I’ll rescue you now. Is there anything I should be aware of?”

Erik Jackson expressed surprise, ”You really found it?”

Carson smiled, ”Yes, I got lucky. This is Kash Lam, he absorbed the elemental core of the Spectral Elemental Fire. I’ve brought him to rescue you.”

Erik Jackson’s voice was aged, ”It seems fate hasn’t abandoned me after all...”
