Chapter 206: Straight into the Nine Layers, Darren Callum Returns_3

Translator: 549690339

Jack Clark was naturally happy to have some downtime, which was perfect for taking time to comprehend the Divine Might Dragon Elephant Secret Book and deduce his own top-tier Cultivation Methods.

Just as Jack Clark was about to close his eyes and rest, Damon Lopes leaned over excitedly and whispered, “Brother Callum, have you noticed? There are so many beauties outside.”

“Look at the beauty over there in the white bodycon dress, her thighs are so white and shapely, and though she’s wearing sunglasses, she must be good-looking. I’d give her an eighty.”

“And that beauty in the red dress over there, tsk, what a stunning figure. Though her face is only a sixty, her body adds points, making her a seventy.”

Watching Damon Lopes judging and rating the women around him, Jack Clark had a strange look in his eyes and suddenly felt this guy was somewhat unreliable.

You are supposed to be the legendary Innate Awakened One, draped in a Daoist robe, looking suave, but you’re acting like you’ve never seen the world—or rather, never seen a woman before.

This doesn’t fit with your character at all.

As Jack Clark was rendered speechless, an announcement for their flight sounded from the broadcast system.

“Flight X-155 to South City is about to take off, please board the plane at Gate 3….”

“Let’s go, Brother Lopes,” said Jack Clark as he stood up.

Following the stream of people, the two walked one after the other into the airplane cabin.

It was a large airplane which could accommodate over two hundred people in the past, but after modifications and weapon installations, it could now seat only about a hundred.

Under the gaze of many passengers, Jack Clark and Damon Lopes passed through the corridor into the small door that led to the First Class section.

The First-class cabin of the large airplane had only two seats, and it was very spacious.

No sooner had they sat down than Damon Lopes leaned over, again excitedly whispering, “Brother Callum, did you notice? Those stewardesses are so beautiful; later I’ll ask if I can add one as a friend.”

“…1 don’t think that’s necessary,” Jack Clark thought with a sigh, feeling that this mission might be a bit more troublesome than anticipated.

Jack Clark shook his head and took out a white stone-like “book” from the Sumeru Bracelet.

The flight to South City would take two hours—a duration he couldn’t afford to waste.

After several days of studying, Jack Clark already had a good understanding of the overall concepts of the Divine Might Dragon Elephant Secret Book, especially the insights of the creator which greatly inspired him.

As it stands, both the secret book he was comprehending and the one he intended to create were centered around the Godly Dragon Elephant Rune.

At that moment, Damon Lopes said in surprise, “A top-tier Secret Manual, Brother Callum. Aren’t you just at the Early Sixth Heaven? Are you really starting to practice the Secret Manual so soon?”

“It’s not for cultivation.”

Damon Lopes seemed slightly confused, “Not for cultivation? Are you drawing inspiration from it to prepare your own?”

Jack Clark nodded, “That’s the idea.”

Damon Lopes exclaimed in admiration, “Amazing. I’ve seen plenty of geniuses over the years, but this is the first time I’ve met someone confident enough to create their own Secret Manual.”

“Hardly, 1 have a backup plan. If my own secret manual is still not taking shape by the Late Sixth Heavenly Stage, I’ll give up on creating it,” said Jack Clark.

Curious about this, Jack Clark asked, “Brother Lopes, do you Innate Awakened Ones cultivate someone else’s Secret Manuals or create your own after reaching the peak of the Sixth Layer Heaven?”

“We don’t need to do either.”

Damon Lopes was not secretive and explained, “Once we reach the peak of the Sixth Heavens, we have a special blank Secret Book. We don’t have to follow in someone else’s footsteps.”

“The so-called blank Secret Book is an empty shell built from Basic Runes. When we break through to the Seventh Layer and experience the Resonance with Heaven and Earth, our innate abilities will naturally form the True Martial Battle Body most suited to us.”

“Since everything is perfectly suited to us, condensing the True Martial Battle Body and breaking through to the Nine Layers Heaven to form a domain is not much of a challenge.”

“…” Suddenly, envy was evident on Jack Clark’s face.

Compared to those ordinary cultivators or a ‘genius’ like himself needing to create his own Secret Manual, these guys seemed to have it all.

But then Damon Lopes smiled wryly, “However, our disadvantage is quite apparent as well. Our talents are one-dimensional, and we can only take one path to the extreme.”

“As a result, our Innate talents may even become shackles when we attempt to breakthrough to the king-level.”

Of course, this so-called disadvantage was somewhat trivial. The ability to effortlessly cultivate to the Ninth Heavens or even break through king-level talents— who wouldn’t envy that?

Seeing Damon Lopes talk passionately, Jack Clark set aside the Secret Manual and started chatting with him, especially about information related to the Innate Awakened Ones.

Damon Lopes didn’t hide anything.

After all, with Jack Clark’s talent, he was going to break through the Seventh Layer very soon and naturally would come to know these things.

The two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and the airplane landed at South Sky Airport.

Jack Clark and his companion followed the crowd off the airplane and then saw a beautiful woman in her early twenties holding a sign by the runway.

It boldly displayed the names Darren Callum and Damon Lopes.

Many passengers couldn’t help but take a second look.

They had no choice; the name Darren Callum was just too… unique. When Tyler Lance asked Jack Clark to come up with a new identity, he had been momentarily stunned.

Jack Clark was nonchalant about it; let it be juvenile. It was just a codename after all.

“Let’s go, Brother Lopes, someone is here to meet us.”

Standing beside the woman holding the sign was another, more mature-looking woman who appeared to be in her thirties, exuding an air of grace.

As the two approached, the mature woman smiled and said, “You must be Mr. Darren Callum and Mr. Damon Lopes. I’m Crystal Boyce.”

Jack Clark nodded slightly, “Boss Boyce, hello, I’m Darren Callum.”

Having checked her information beforehand, Jack Clark recognized Crystal Boyce immediately, but he hadn’t expected her to look even younger in person than in her photos. Wasn’t she supposed to be fifty-one?

Damon Lopes greeted her charmingly, “I’m Damon Lopes; I did not expect Boss Boyce to come receive us in person.”

Crystal Boyce apologized, “Initially, Miss Joseline should have come to receive you both, but she’s currently practicing a new dance for the concert preparations, so my apologies.”

Jack Clark replied calmly, “There’s no need, Boss Boyce.”

“It’s getting late, let’s get in the car. We can talk more on the way,” she said.

The four of them then boarded a luxury business car parked nearby.

With the driver at the wheel, Crystal Boyce gave Jack Clark and his companion a brief introduction to the company’s situation.

Meanwhile, the pretty assistant curiously observed the two newcomers, wondering what kind of big shots they were for the Group’s CEO to come greet them in person..
