The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2422: Quasi-Saint

Carson Flores headed north.

Although chances of entering the safe zone were slim, he figured it’d be worth a look.

There were definitely quite a few adventurers trapped in this domain, and they would instinctively make their way toward the safe zone.

Perhaps something would occur?

Inside the Ethereal Pagoda.

Carson Flores voiced his doubts: "A powerful being who has mastered Space Divine Power is at least a Great Land Prime Immortal, surely not a Saint, right? To have the ability to fold space, playing with lands at will, such a means is truly divine. How is it that the same Great Land Prime Immortal can vary so greatly in power?"

Flowing Cloud is a Great Land Prime Immortal, Floating Cloud is a Great Land Prime Immortal, Ghost True Sage is also a Great Land Prime Immortal, Norric is a Great Land Prime Immortal, True Sage Grand Void is a Great Land Prime Immortal, and the one who set up this Secret Realm must be a Great Land Prime Immortal as well. There are considerable differences among them.

Floating Cloud responded: "You probably know that Great Land Prime Immortals are divided into Lower, Middle, and Superior Grades, right?"

Carson Flores nodded: "I know."

Floating Cloud explained: "The higher the realm of the Immortal, the greater the difference between each realm, and even within the same realm, the difference in Immortal power can be vast. Flowing Cloud, me, Ghost True Sage, and those you’ve seen before like Cyrion, Profound Power, and even The Wither-Bloom Sage, are all Superior Grade Great Land Prime Immortals, but as you’ve seen, there are differences in strength among us."

"In fact, above Superior Grade Great Land Prime Immortals, but below Saints, there is another realm. Strictly speaking, it still belongs to the Superior Grade Great Land Prime Immortal, but they have explored the threshold of the Saint Realm, with one foot even stepping in..."

Carson Flores’s eyes lit up: "Half-step Saint?"

Floating Cloud nodded: "Yes, that’s what it means. However, we call them Quasi-Saints. The power of their divine skills is unparalleled compared to ours. If this Holy Spring Secret Realm is indeed man-made, then the maker is likely a Quasi-Saint."

Quasi-Saint?

Carson Flores was stunned.

If this Secret Realm was indeed crafted by a Quasi-Saint, what could be their purpose?

Carson Flores couldn’t help but ask: "Master, if you were to fight a Quasi-Saint, what are the odds of winning?"

Floating Cloud chuckled: "Talking about victory odds with a Quasi-Saint? Are you kidding? If a Superior Grade Great Land Prime Immortal could defeat a Quasi-Saint, they’d be tarnishing the word ’Saint’."

Alright, got it.

A Superior Grade Great Land Prime Immortal versus a Quasi-Saint, the win rate is 0!

Carson Flores thought for a moment and then asked: "What if, and I mean if, the creator of the Holy Spring Secret Realm is a Quasi-Saint with ulterior motives, causing the deaths of one batch of adventurers after another? Wouldn’t the Immortal Emperor do something?"

"Why would they?"

Floating Cloud asked curiously: "In the eyes of a Saint, even Great Land is insignificant. Those below Great Land are like ants. Would a Saint kill someone for trampling a batch of ants?"

Carson Flores was speechless.

The Immortal Path, survival of the fittest, indeed.

Floating Cloud sighed: "If a Quasi-Saint were to slaughter indiscriminately across the Immortal Domains, affecting the interests of the Immortal Emperor’s lineage, like in the Ten Thousand Immortals Domain, if a Quasi-Saint indiscriminately slaughters, it would surely affect the Myriad Immortals Palace’s interests. The Myriad Immortals Palace would naturally intervene, even if the Hall Master couldn’t handle it, they would report it to the Immortal Emperor for justice."

"Now that this Quasi-Saint has set up such a Secret Realm, even if he kills all the adventurers who disappear due to the Secret Realm’s renewal, no one would blame him for it. After all, everyone knows about the Secret Realm’s renewal; if you dare to venture in and get into trouble, you can only blame yourself, right?"

Floating Cloud paused and bitterly smiled: "Strictly speaking, we also came here seeking a place for healing. We were taking risks for something, and now the risks have simply turned into reality."

Carson Flores pondered, realizing it seemed to make sense.

This Secret Realm is like a bamboo cage for trapping birds. Grains are spread under the cage, and birds outside are tempted by the food, risking flight to eat the grains under the cage. Some birds are lucky and eat the grains and fly away, while some are unlucky, with the cage falling and trapping them inside.

The unlucky birds are already caged, whether it’s braised, stewed, or released all depends on the whim of the person holding the cage.

Carson Flores and his companions were like birds trapped inside.

Carson Flores unwillingly asked: "The Wither-Bloom Sage seems much stronger than you all. Is he a Quasi-Saint?"

Carson Flores had a token given by The Wither-Bloom Sage, capable of summoning him once.

Floating Cloud shook his head: "He is not a Quasi-Saint, he is just a very powerful Superior Grade Great Land Prime Immortal."

Carson Flores instantly felt a bit deflated, realizing hoping for rescue from The Wither-Bloom Sage was futile.

A Superior Grade Great Land Prime Immortal versus a Quasi-Saint, the win rate is 0.

Carson Flores was dejected but suddenly thought of another person and asked: "Master, do you know True Sage Grand Void, is he powerful?"
