823: Chapter 823: A Blessing in Disguise?
Carson Flores hid underwater, his heart pounding with tension.
Comparable to a Hollow Void, the Great Demon was just tens of ters above him, searching for him like a God of Killing.
There was no doubt that if it discovered him, his end would be very miserable.
Carson Flores lay quietly on the bottom of the pool, motionless, completely transforming himself into an inanimate rock.
A few seconds later, Carson Flores clearly felt an invisible Divine Sense sweep over him, but it didn’t linger.
The Dharma Seal of the eldest senior brother really worked!
Carson Flores secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Now, the only problem left was how to escape his predicant.
After the Golden Lion’s Divine Sense scanned the entire hollow and found nothing, it leaped into the air and swiftly flew off into the distance.
However, the many Demonic Beasts that had followed it back did not leave but stayed, continuing to line up for a drink.
Furthermore, the large group of Demonic Beasts that had previously pursued Delaney Hunter had returned, and a long queue had ford once again in front of the spring.
Carson Flores was suddenly bewildered.
Among these water-drinking Demonic Beasts, there were many with formidable strength.
If he were to surface, he wouldn’t be able to escape either.
Well, might as well stay hidden.
These Demonic Beasts surely couldn’t keep lining up day and night without a break, could they?
There had to be gaps at so point.
Carson Flores didn’t need to deliberately scout out the situation; just by relying on the subtle ripples at the edge of the pool, he could determine whether there were still Demonic Beasts drinking by the water’s edge.
Carson Flores cald down and began to sense his surroundings.
This sensation startled him.
Spiritual Energy!
Incredibly rich Spiritual Energy!
Carson Flores first silently drank so Spiritual Spring Water, then quietly began his Cultivation Practice.
Indeed, the toxins in his body quickly dispersed, vanishing without a trace just like snow under the sun.
This Spiritual Spring could indeed detoxify!
After removing the toxins from his body, Carson Flores cald his mind, remained motionless, and began to absorb the surrounding Spiritual Energy.
Since the fluctuations of Spiritual Energy were severe here, drawing in Spiritual Energy would not attract attention.
A massive amount of pure Spiritual Energy surged into Carson Flores’s Dantian like the waters of a vast river, causing the Golden Core within to spin wildly, devouring it fervently.
Every second, a colossal amount of Spiritual Energy surged in, equivalent to at least a day’s cultivation outside!
Ti passed bit by bit, and the Golden Core inside Carson Flores beca more dazzling and substantial.
After an indeterminate amount of ti, a trace of life began to erge within the Golden Core.
The Golden Core now resembled an egg and inside the egg was the nurturing of a new life!
Carson Flores suddenly had an epiphany.
The transformation from Golden Core to Nascent Soul was akin to the transition from inanimate to animate.
The Nascent Soul was essentially his second life, akin to an Incarnation of himself, except that one was like a newborn baby when first entering the Nascent Soul Stage, weak and not yet cultivated to the level of the Primordial Spirit.
However, under extre conditions, if his body was injured, the Nascent Soul could leave the body and, if it quickly possessed a suitable host within a short period, it could be reborn and obtain a second life.
So days before, he had entered the Golden Core Late Stage, and here, he had directly reached the peak of the Golden Core Late Stage, also known colloquially as Golden Core Great Perfection!
Just one more step was needed to go from Golden Core to Nascent Soul, to officially enter the Nascent Soul Realm.
An invisible barrier obstructed Carson Flores, preventing the transformation of the Golden Core to Nascent Soul, which was the bottleneck between each major Realm.
To cross this bottleneck, one might rely on enlightennt, opportunity, or external aids.
Essentially, it required a form of assistance, either internal or external, to aid in the breaking of the Golden Core into the Nascent Soul.
Carson Flores felt sowhat regretful.
The amount of Spiritual Energy he had absorbed was minuscule compared to that of the Spiritual Spring, and chances were he would never have the opportunity to enter here again.
After all, except for the deadly toxicity, the Demonic Beasts in Harmony Hollow were also terrifyingly strong.
Hadn’t even the eldest senior brother, a being that defied the heavens, had to flee?
Since cultivation was not an option, Carson Flores turned his attention elsewhere.
Were there any living creatures in this Spiritual Spring?
Such as Spirit Fish or shells…
Carson Flores searched around but ended up disappointed.
The entire pool was spotlessly clean, without a single living being in it.
If there were no other treasures, he would have to collect more of the Spiritual Spring Water.
Carson Flores filled all the large jars he had prepared in his Space Ring with Spiritual Spring Water, stopping only when there was no more room to store any more.
In the murky waters below, without a sense of ti, he did not know how long had passed, but the slight disturbances from the water pool above had disappeared.
Carson Flores opened his eyes and waited quietly for a long ti, yet still, there was no sign of movent.
The opportunity had arrived!
Carson Flores extended his senses outward and found no sign of any Demonic Beasts nearby.
Carson Flores slowly surfaced, poking his head out carefully.
It was now night, the stars filled the sky, and moonlight shone on the earth, casting a tranquil serenity.
No Golden Lion, no Demonic Beasts drinking water, all was silent around him, nothing at all!
Carson Flores quickly took flight on his sword, heading towards the hill where he had hidden before.
It was only when he returned to his previous hiding spot that he finally exhaled deeply, feeling a sense of relief as if he had escaped from the clutches of death.
Carson Flores looked around and was again bewildered.
In the pitch darkness, which direction should he fly towards?
As a minor Golden Core, if he were to be targeted by so Demonic Beast, wouldn’t his end be sealed?
