The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2651: Chapter 2651: It’s Really Hard, Why Don’t You Give It a Try?

"How do you feel?"

"It seems quite fierce, but I’m not very clear about its specific combat power. I’ll have to test it later."

With a thought, Carson Flores caused the massive Gluttonous Blood Tree in the sky to instantly wither. Countless blood hues flowed back into the Gluttonous Blood Fruit Seed connected to the Sea of Consciousness. The withered Gluttonous Blood Tree turned to dust and dispersed into the air, while the Gluttonous Blood Fruit, shining with blood light, returned to Carson’s Sea of Consciousness, once again attaching itself quietly to the Crystal of the Wood Path.

Lucas White congratulated him, "Congratulations, Flores, on acquiring yet another remarkable skill."

Carson replied with a smile, "I have to thank you all for letting me have it."

Lucas White laughed, "You’re the only one among us who can use it; who else would we give it to?"

Varric Combs crossed his arms and asked leisurely, "How many Path Crystals do you possess?"

Carson answered, "Fire, Wood, and Water. The other two don’t have suitable Cultivation Techniques yet, so I haven’t cultivated them."

Varric Combs chuckled, "You’re a disciple of Floating Cloud and have followed Snow Zane for three years. Didn’t they help you gather Cultivation Techniques?"

Carson replied honestly, "The Divine Spring Myriad Wood Technique, which is of the wood attribute, was given to me by my master. As for Metal and Earth, it’s not that I don’t have them, but their quality isn’t high enough. If I cultivate them and form Path Crystals, the five Path Crystals won’t be balanced, which could be troublesome."

Varric Combs was aware of the cultivation method of the Five Elements Great Escape, where one cultivates five Path Crystals and uses a special method to form them into a whole. The five elements cycle endlessly, and only at this stage can one truly reach the level of the Five Elements Great Escape.

At this moment, Carson’s Five Elements Path Crystals were each acting independently, even repelling each other, naturally unable to achieve the state of endless cycling.

"The Cultivation Techniques you’re practicing are all Top Tier or close to Top Tier. Although I intend to help you, I don’t have Gold or Earth attribute techniques, so I’m powerless to assist you."

Carson was indifferent and smiled, "No rush. My current strength is still low. Even if I combine the five paths and enter the realm of the Five Elements Great Escape, due to my own low strength, I won’t be able to truly unleash its real power."

Varric Combs suggested, "You don’t need to rush. Once you reach the Crimson Immortal Domain, look for Norric Shepherd. He’s been guarding the Immortal Realm for countless years; if anyone has the cultivation techniques, it’s him. He’ll surely be able to help you complete them."

"Alright!"

Carson agreed casually, but internally he was pondering. Norric Shepherd has no connection with him, nor does he owe him anything. Surely, he wouldn’t give Top Tier Cultivation Techniques to him for no reason?

There’s no such thing as a free lunch!

Norric Shepherd is skilled in divination. He had mentioned teaching Carson the Way of the Sword Talisman to prepare for the future. It seems in his eyes, Carson must be someone "useful in the future."

As for Carson’s potential use, perhaps only he himself knows.

If it were someone else, Carson might keep his distance. Who knows if the other party is scheming against him?

Norric Shepherd is different, though. He’s guarding the Immortal Demon rift at the Crimson Immortal Domain, protecting the entire Immortal Realm from the invasion of the Demon Race. For this reason alone, Carson is willing to trust him... a bit more.

Carson changed the subject, "Senior, how is your comprehension of the Space Turbulence Technique going?"

Varric Combs’s expression faltered slightly, his gaze a bit awkward, "The Space Turbulence Technique is vast and profound; it’s not so easy to comprehend. Three months is too short. I’ve only grasped some basics and probably need more time."

Carson was slightly surprised; is the Space Turbulence Technique that difficult?

Noticing Carson’s surprise, Varric Combs felt hastily underestimated by this youngster and immediately took out rubbings and handed them to him.

"Try it, and you’ll understand."

Carson didn’t rush to take them, "Aren’t you going to continue comprehending, Senior?"

Varric Combs pushed the rubbings into Carson’s hands, "I’ve been working on them for three months but haven’t understood many parts. Just contemplating them won’t do. You’re not doing anything now, so why don’t you try comprehending them for a while."

After a pause, Varric Combs added, "Let’s have a discussion later and see if we can inspire each other."

Upon hearing Varric Combs say this, Carson no longer refused and took the rubbings.

Carson rested for a day, regaining a full mental state, and then resumed his secluded cultivation.

Carson laid down a simple Formation around himself, a common practice among cultivators in seclusion, to prevent external disturbances and focus his mind solely on his task.

The Formation Carson set up had an additional purpose.

He planned to consult Broken Heaven Pathist!

Who, but the original master of the Divine Skills, could understand them better?

Not only did he possess the Dragon Mountain Cloud Dream Art, allowing him to continually analyze Cultivation Techniques and help him comprehend and understand them, but he could also consult Broken Heaven Pathist when encountering critical problems. Surely, he wouldn’t fail to learn them this way!

If Carson learned it and Varric Combs didn’t, who knows what expression Varric Combs would have? Surely, it would be quite a spectacle, wouldn’t it?
