Chapter 821: Into the Tiger’s Den
The sun rose from the east, and Benson Bernard, who had been sitting cross-legged all night, stood up.
"No good, the poison won’t dissipate. After a whole night, there’s no change. It seems that to fully rid myself of the poison, I have to delve deep into Harmony Hollow to find the Spiritual Spring at the location of Harmony Eye or some other antidote."
Delaney Hunter said with a smile, "Isn’t it perfect that a divine object has emerged right there? We might as well go in for a look."
Benson nodded, then turned to Carson Flores. Before he could speak, Carson preempted him, "I want to go in too."
Benson spoke gently, "It’s dangerous inside, not just because of the poison, but also the presence of various Demonic Beasts. You haven’t been poisoned, so there’s really no need for you to go."
Carson said softly, "Ten years ago, the Kahdas team ventured into Harmony Hollow. My father was among them and went missing in the Hollow. Even though I know he’s probably dead, I still want to go in and look around—at least as a way to fulfill a wish."
After a pause, Carson’s face broke into a brilliant smile, "A Cultivator battles against heaven and earth, and dangers are everywhere. Should we just hide in our retreats and cultivate forever? Eventually, we must face it all, right?"
Benson listened, his gaze slightly sympathetic, and didn’t stop him anymore, "Fine, let’s go in together. After all, if we can’t beat them, we run. Even if the poison can’t be cured, it won’t be fatal, only diminish one’s strength."
"Alright!"
