Chapter 2576: Let the Wife Try First—The Meat Has to Rot in the Pot!
Although Carson Flores and others had discovered a healing sanctuary in the Roulette Secret Realm, Ben Singleton did not go.
He chose to recover slowly.
Although the probability was very small, he didn’t want to be caught by Thyris Lucerne and become an eternal laborer with no hope of escape.
Carson Flores supported Ben Singleton’s decision.
A century would pass in the blink of an eye; there was no need to gamble on luck. What if he really did run into Thyris Lucerne and got captured?
Thyris Lucerne might let them go due to Delarosa, but he might not let Ben Singleton go. After all, Carson had no influence over Thyris Lucerne, who even considered eliminating him effortlessly.
Thyris Lucerne believed Carson was unworthy of being the master of the Ethereal Pagoda.
Ben Singleton did not insist either, having recovered considerably. He could fight with forced effort, but if he encountered a Great Land Prime Immortal, he might still not be a match even in strong combat.
He agreed with Carson Flores that the Immortal Path must be walked by oneself; relying on others’ protection could not lead to greatness.
Alfred Weaver asked with puzzlement, "Aren’t you the Sea God now? Doesn’t Will-Power Cultivation reduce bottlenecks? West Prison is very hostile to the Human Race; going there could be quite dangerous. Why not cultivate first, improve your strength, and then go when you’re stronger? There’s no rush, right?"
Carson Flores smiled bitterly, taking out the Sea God’s Seal: "To be recognized by the Sea God’s Seal is to be the Sea God and use all its abilities. One must also be acknowledged by the Sea God Sect to possibly gain Will Power..."
"The Sea God’s Seal does not recognize me, so I cannot become a Sea God, let alone cultivate with the Sea God’s Seal."
Alfred Weaver was surprised: "Not recognized?"
Carson Flores placed the Sea God’s Seal in Alfred Weaver’s hand: "Feel it for yourself to understand what I mean."
Alfred Weaver, holding the Sea God’s Seal, hesitated: "What if it accepts me?"
Carson Flores laughed: "If it accepts you, then you’ll be the Sea God. What’s the difference between me being the Sea God and you being the Sea God? It’s all within the same circle."
Alfred Weaver thought it through and found it reasonable. Since Carson had confirmed he couldn’t gain recognition from the Sea God’s Seal, he might as well try; there was nothing to lose.
Alfred Weaver grasped the Sea God’s Seal, extending his perception into it, and suddenly cried out a few seconds later.
Everyone’s gaze focused on Alfred Weaver’s face, curious.
Alfred Weaver blushed and said, "I seemed to instantly connect with its spiritual world. I saw a vast ocean and felt as if it had seen everything about me..."
Alfred Weaver pouted: "Then it rebounded my perception and tossed me right out."
Carson Flores couldn’t help but laugh out loud: "Now you understand how we feel, right?"
Alfred Weaver nodded: "Did Cassiane try it too?"
Cassiane Sinclair nodded lightly, with a momentary unusual look in her eyes.
The Sea God’s Seal was given to Carson Flores by True Sage Grand Void. After being rejected, Carson immediately let her try. Wasn’t he afraid that she might be recognized?
Though they were friends, technically, Carson, after being rejected, should have let his wives try first.
She was in second place, even before his wives...
Would Alfred Weaver think too much into it?
Alfred Weaver clearly didn’t overthink it. Perhaps after years of companionship, she saw Cassiane Sinclair as family; she exclaimed with surprise, "It really chooses its own master. Lorraine, why don’t you give it a try?"
Ben Singleton held the Sea God’s Seal, yet did not rush to perceive it, seemingly hesitating.
Carson Flores smiled: "The fact that the Sea God’s Seal is in my hands is known to no one. I don’t intend to return it to the Sea God Sect for now, at least not until our family has all tried it. If none of us succeed, then we’ll consider how to use it to negotiate with the Sea God Sect for adequate benefits."
"I nearly lost my life, using my strongest trump card to obtain it. I can’t just hand it back to the Sea God Sect for nothing."
Carson Flores, despite a good relationship with Lorvian Randall, knew it was a different matter from friendship.
Even if he didn’t return it, Lorvian Randall would have no words.
Ben Singleton nodded and began to release his own perception.
After a while, Ben Singleton smiled and let go of his hand.
"It’s the same for me."
Carson Flores took back the Sea God’s Seal, casually tossed it in his hand, and handed it to Alfred Weaver again.
"You hold onto it, let everyone try it later. If none can manage it, you keep it, and when they return, let them try."
Alfred Weaver exclaimed: "Isn’t the Sea God’s Seal an Innate Spiritual Treasure? Even if you can’t use it for cultivation, you can use it for battle, right?"
Carson Flores chuckled: "I also thought that before, but on second thought, it’s not quite appropriate. Although the Sea God’s Seal is an Attack Treasure and tremendously powerful, its shape and attack mode make it impossible to hide."
"If I take it out to fight, it would be recognized in no time. Should anyone inform the Sea God Sect, wouldn’t that cause trouble for me?"
"Let’s keep it on the island for now. When they return, they can all try it. If none succeeds, we’ll decide how to handle it. Cassiane Sinclair is with me, a Superior Grade Great Land Supreme Immortal. If even she can’t defend it, having the Sea God’s Seal with me is meaningless..."
Alfred Weaver responded: "Is Cassiane going with you to West Prison?"
Carson Flores nodded: "Yes."
Alfred Weaver flashed a subtle expression and smiled slightly: "Cassiane, please take care of him."
Cassiane Sinclair, facing Alfred Weaver, felt a bit embarrassed, and quickly said: "Carson has helped me so much, and now I’m merely doing my best to repay a little. Do not worry, Alfred, I will do my utmost to protect him..."
