The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2248: Chapter 2248: Harmony Land

”What is that?”

Inside the Ethereal Pagoda, Carson Flores was still in shock.

He had encountered many dangers, several threatening his life, but this one was definitely among the most perilous.

If he hadn’t prepared the Golden Sphere in advance, if it weren’t for the Ethereal Pagoda’s astonishing defensive power, he would have already been turned into a mist of blood, dissipating into the world.

Delarosa’s expression was quite solemn: ”A rift created by folding space.”

”A spatial rift?”

Carson asked with a shocked expression, ”Delarosa, are you okay?”

The Golden Sphere, which could withstand the attacks of the Great Land Sovereign for five minutes, shattered completely in just an instant. It was imaginable how immense the impact the Golden Sphere had taken at that moment.

After the Golden Sphere shattered, the Golden Light Barrier released by the Ethereal Pagoda was also broken in an instant. Immediately afterward, he fled into the Ethereal Pagoda, which then endured that terrifying impact.

Carson was quite worried; Delarosa was the Artifact Spirit of the Ethereal Pagoda. If the Ethereal Pagoda was destroyed, Delarosa would also vanish into thin air.

Seeing Carson’s worried face, Delarosa comforted him: ”Don’t worry. While that impact was strong, the greatest feature of the Ethereal Pagoda is its sturdiness. Although the spatial rift’s power is great, it cannot destroy the Ethereal Pagoda. It’s fine.”

Carson breathed a sigh of relief but still repeated worriedly, ”Are you really okay, Delarosa? You’re not lying to me, right?”

Delarosa smiled: ”Why would I lie to you? If the Ethereal Pagoda couldn’t withstand it, it would have shattered just like the Golden Sphere in your hand. We all would have perished with it. Since we’re all standing here safely, it naturally means we’re fine.”

Only then did Carson feel completely at ease, saying with lingering fear, ”Delarosa, you saved my life again.”

Delarosa laughed lightly: ”We have a contract, so why should there be any distinction between us?”

Carson collected himself and asked, ”What’s the situation now? Why was there a spatial rift there? There’s no way to see any signs of it. If someone crashed into it, wouldn’t they die instantly?”

Delarosa responded: ”Folding space means the spaces within the spatial rift have been folded. Even if you look from a distance, they appear identical. But in reality, they are no longer in the same space. We’ve passed through the spatial rift and forcibly entered a Folding Space.”

Carson had seen Folding Space before, so he wasn’t too surprised. He connected his mind with the Ethereal Pagoda, and the outside scene appeared in his ”eyes.”

Mountains, valleys, dense forests...

All of this looked no different from the previous area, but the surroundings no longer had the figures of Orion Watson and the others.

”I’ll go have a look outside!”

A moment later, a flash of golden light from the Ethereal Pagoda, Carson had emerged from it, floating in mid-air.

Looking around, Carson’s eyes widened noticeably.

The area beneath him was quite large, no different in appearance from the area he’d searched before. After all, they originally belonged to the same place. But as Carson looked back, he saw a transparent, twisted barrier surrounding this land, through which he’d passed earlier.

The barrier looked transparent, yet it was impossible to see the outside world through it. Everything seemed twisted, no longer in its original form, and no sounds from outside could be heard.

Completely isolated from the world!

”Folding space, is this man-made? There’s supposed to be no trace of Human Cultivators in this Secret Realm, right?”

Delarosa spoke softly: ”First, search around and see if there’s anything. There must be a reason why this Folding Space appeared here.”

”Okay!”

Carson took to the air, flying towards the interior area.

This area, folded by space, wasn’t covered by white mist. Although the sun wasn’t visible in the sky, there was ample sunlight and a good field of vision. Carson floated in the sky, able to take in the ground’s situation at a glance.

After flying several dozen miles, Carson suddenly stopped, a look of amazement on his face.

In the valley ahead, half of it was as black as charcoal, radiating boundless heat in the air. The other half of the valley was full of flowers and trees, lush and vibrant, like the splendor of spring.

Between the scorching, heat-wave-rolling valley and the spring-breeze-blowing flowers, there was an arc-shaped path. This path seemed like a barrier, a dividing line, cutting the two sides into separate worlds.

Carson flew a bit closer, and waves of heat hit him, the intense temperature almost unbearable. He quickly flew towards the other side of the valley.

Crossing the path, approaching the other half of the valley, the high temperature seemed to disappear completely, replaced by a warm spring breeze that gently brushed against him, making him feel lazy, wanting to lay down and take a nap on the grass.

Shocked, Carson asked, ”Delarosa, what’s this situation? Isn’t it too strange?”

Delarosa’s voice echoed in Carson’s mind: ”Harmony Land, take a closer look. Is there a pool or a spring or something?”

Carson’s eyes widened in delight: ”Harmony Spring?”
