The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2251: Chapter 2251: Harmony Spring or the Mirror of Elemental Harmony—Which Will You Choose?

Carson Flores suddenly turned around, looking at the figure that appeared, his body tensing instantly.

What emerged from the two wells could not be anyone else; it could only be the great power who created these two wells and folded this space. According to Ben Singleton’s earlier analysis, it is most likely a Great Land Prime Immortal who masters Space Divine Power.

He was a middle-aged man with a refined appearance, dressed in a simple robe, with a calm demeanor and a serene aura, resembling a scholarly reader or a teacher in an academy.

Ben Singleton glanced over at the man, slightly relieved, and transmitted, ”Don’t panic, it’s just a Primordial Spirit Projection.”

Carson Flores also let out a breath, realizing that a Primordial Spirit Projection is like a video call through a Formation. It isn’t the person’s actual body, so its combat capability is relatively limited. If it were a Primordial Spirit Incarnation left by the opponent, that would be truly terrifying.

It’s quite normal to think about it; the Harmony Spring is indeed remarkable but is only particularly useful in special places. To a space great power who can roam across many worlds, it probably isn’t considered too extraordinary and not worth too much attention.

Having a Formation set up, which triggers and activates the projection when there is any movement at the wells, allows him to see the situation here firsthand. It’s unnecessary to leave a Primordial Spirit Incarnation here specifically for guard duty.

The middle-aged man was suspended in the air, his gaze sweeping over Carson Flores with a slight glimmer in his eyes; when he glanced at Ben Singleton, his look turned slightly surprised, and finally, his gaze settled on the Mirror of Elemental Harmony in Carson’s hand, emitting a low exclamation.

”The Mirror of Elemental Harmony?”

Carson Flores was startled; Delarosa had mentioned that the Mirror of Elemental Harmony had caused countless great powers to vie for it. If it were exposed, it might lead to disaster.

In this Folding Space, there was no one else, so Carson dared to use the Mirror of Elemental Harmony with impunity. Who would have known that the ancient well concealed a Formation, directly bringing forth a Primordial Spirit Projection!

Carson casually stored the Mirror of Elemental Harmony into his Space Ring and respectfully greeted the man, ”We came here seeking the Harmony Spring to heal our injuries, disturbing you, esteemed senior. Please forgive us.”

Though unaware of the man’s origins or temperament, politeness was a safe approach. After all, courtesy costs nothing, and a friendly face often avoids trouble.

The middle-aged man showed no anger but instead asked with interest, ”Although you have some peculiarities, you only have the strength of a Heavenly Immortal. This companion, though a Great Land Prime Immortal, is heavily injured, relying on a magical treasure in his chest to convert life force and barely hang onto life. He can’t fully utilize his strength. Considering your abilities, it’s puzzling how you managed to pass through the spatial rift. Can you tell me how you entered here?”

Carson inhaled sharply; he had previously encountered Floating Cloud from Dragon Cloud Mountain, who also saw through the secrets of his body at a glance. Now, merely a projection from this person saw through everything in just one sweep.

This was too formidable!

Carson, steeling himself, replied, ”I carry many Defense Treasures, among them an Innate Defensive Spiritual Treasure. Several strong Defense Treasures shattered, and finally, with the help of this Innate Defensive Spiritual Treasure, I barely managed to withstand the crushing pressure of the spatial rift and entered here...”

The middle-aged man seemed to understand; having a defensive-type Innate Spiritual Treasure to withstand the crushing pressure of a spatial rift explained it.

The middle-aged man’s gaze fell on Ben Singleton, ”Is he your disciple or junior?”

Ben Singleton shook his head, ”A friend.”

The middle-aged man appeared slightly surprised, ”For someone like you to call him a friend, did he save your life?”

Ben Singleton wasn’t surprised that the man deduced the truth; given his injuries, many facts could be inferred. He candidly responded, ”Yes.”

The middle-aged man chuckled, ”Interesting! A mere Heavenly Immortal saved a Great Land Prime Immortal and even carried him around while seeking the Harmony Spring while gravely injured...”

Carson noted that the middle-aged man didn’t seem angry and once again cupped his hands, saying, ”I understand that senior discovered this place first, even built the wells and folded the space, but we truly need the Harmony Spring for healing. I humbly implore your generosity, and I would be eternally grateful.”

The middle-aged man laughed, ”Your gratitude is something I don’t need, but I am very interested in the Mirror of Elemental Harmony you’re holding. Can you tell me how you acquired it?”

Since the man had already recognized the Mirror of Elemental Harmony, Carson saw no reason to hide it. He openly recounted how he came to possess the Mirror of Elemental Harmony, even detailing how he, by chance, found scattered fragments and repaired the Mirror of Elemental Harmony.

The middle-aged man looked astonished, ”You obtained the Mirror of Elemental Harmony in the mortal world, and you even used it to breakthrough Golden Core, thereby truly embarking on the path of Immortal Cultivation. It seems you are indeed fated with it...”

Carson calmly said, ”The Control Method for the Mirror of Elemental Harmony is said to have been lost, yet the Mirror of Elemental Harmony still attracts attention. Ever since I came to the Immortal Realm, I have seldom used it, fearing it would bring disaster upon me.”

The middle-aged man smiled faintly, ”Is this a reminder for me? Let me ask you, if you want the Harmony Spring, you’ll have to exchange the Mirror of Elemental Harmony. If you disagree, you won’t obtain the Harmony Spring. Will you choose the Mirror of Elemental Harmony or the Harmony Spring?”
