The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 1410: Chapter 1410: Divine Brilliance Tower of Immortal Fate

Upon revealing his identity, Bryan Gross’s smile suddenly became much richer.

Setting aside Carson Flores’s age and strength, the mere fact that he was a disciple of Bank Austin was enough.

Bank Austin was once a legend who swept through the entire Thunder Immortal Realm, unmatched by anyone. It is said that he even sparred with the Domain Master. Although the outcome is unknown, this did not hinder his reputation as an exalted powerhouse.

Bank Austin is a legend in the Immortal Realm, and as the disciple of such a legend, his presence to personally celebrate one’s longevity is quite a face-giving matter.

”Carson, my young friend, I have long admired your teacher and regret not having been able to meet him. Now that I have the opportunity to meet his True Disciple, it’s a very pleasant affair indeed. Please, take a seat up here!”

Carson Flores was guided directly to the most prestigious seat, which showed how much he was valued.

Surrounding him were old-timers, some thousands and even tens of thousands of years old, and there sat Carson Flores, a young man in his thirties, quite conspicuous among them.

What the senior attendees thought inwardly, I cannot say, but each one had a smile on their face.

Ever since Bank Austin and the previous Sect Master, White Crane Immortal Sect had not had another powerhouse capable of standing on their own. However, a skinny camel is still bigger than a horse, so the sect still held sway in the Skyland Continent.

Carson Flores was not only a disciple of Bank Austin but also the junior Sect Master Uncle of the White Crane Immortal Sect. To look down on Carson was to look down on the entire White Crane Immortal Sect!

Spencer Steele, as a maiden, naturally did not qualify to sit at the table and was about to be taken to a side hall by the attending disciples.

”Wait.”

Carson Flores stopped Spencer Steele and casually instructed, ”Stay put, don’t run around.”

”Yes, Peak Master!”

After Spencer Steele left, a burly man asked Carson Flores, ”Daoist Flores, have you taken over Heavenly Sword Peak?”

Carson Flores smiled and said, ”Yes, but it’s just a barren mountain. My role as Peak Master is somewhat solitary.”

The elderly gentleman opposite Carson Flores laughed and said, ”A mountain is not necessarily known for its height, but for its famed inhabitants. In the past, Heavenly Sword Peak was just an obscure and nameless solitary peak, yet it became widely known because of your teacher’s fame. Now that you, Daoist Flores, have inherited the Heavenly Sword Inheritance, I imagine the name of Heavenly Sword Peak will resound once again throughout the Immortal Domains.”

Carson Flores humbly responded, ”I still fall far short of my master.”

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the birthday banquet officially began.

The feast was incredibly lavish, with wine made from millennial Drunken Orchid Grass combined with a variety of Spiritual Medicines. One sip filled one with Immortal Spirit Qi, leaving the spirit refreshed and worth a month of arduous cultivation.

The main dish was a rare Demonic Beast called a Moon Spirit Beast, which was difficult to encounter even once in a hundred years. Its flesh was tender and delicious, making one wish they could swallow their own tongue as well. The other dishes were also various rare birds and beasts, and even the vegetarian dishes were grown from Immortal Spirit Soil.

Indeed, a celebration worthy of a millennium-old ancestor!

Carson Flores was not shy, eating and drinking heartily. This meal alone was equivalent to years of cultivation—it would be silly not to indulge!

As they were eating, the burly man suddenly spoke up, ”Have you heard? Divine Brilliance Tower has appeared again!”

The eyes of everyone at the table were riveted on the burly man, expressions filled with surprise.

”The Fate of Immortal Tower that appears randomly and sporadically?”

The burly man laughed, ”Yes, apart from that, what else would be called Divine Brilliance Tower?”

”Where?”

The burly man replied, ”Reportedly in the Blackstone Mountain Range. It was first spotted by a group of Adventurers who entered the Blackstone Mountain Range to hunt Demonic Beasts. They were resting when suddenly, a grand tower appeared in a gorge that had been empty, echoing with celestial music, hazy like a mirage. But before they could get close, the tower vanished again.”

”After they left the Blackstone Mountain Range, based on their description, others sketched out the tower, and it was indeed the legendary Divine Brilliance Tower.”

This statement from the burly man sparked a heated discussion immediately.

”Divine Brilliance Tower, a place only those fated for immortality will encounter and cannot be sought after. It is said that those who manage to enter are destined for greatness, and almost all achieve extraordinary feats.”

”Unfortunately, even if one finds Divine Brilliance Tower, there’s no guarantee of entrance, and by now, many Cultivators must have flocked to the Blackstone Mountain Range.”

”That’s inevitable. How would you know you can’t enter unless you try? What if you are that fated person?”

While Carson Flores listened intently, the burly man suddenly turned his head to Carson Flores: ”Daoist Flores, it is rumored that your teacher once entered Divine Brilliance Tower, is that true or false?”

What?

Carson Flores looked utterly baffled; what did this have to do with Bank Austin?

”My time with my master was brief, and I don’t know much about his past. I’m not even aware if he ever entered Divine Brilliance Tower, I don’t even know what this Divine Brilliance Tower is...”

With a smile, the burly man explained, ”Divine Brilliance Tower is a nine-story tower, legend has it that it contains endless Cultivation Techniques. It isn’t fixed in one place but appears randomly. If one is fated, encountering it will allow entry and bestow fortune. If one has no such fate, even finding it won’t grant access.”

Carson Flores blinked, ”So Divine Brilliance Tower is like a Scripture Pavilion?”

The burly man laughed, ”It’s not just about Cultivation Techniques; it also contains countless magical treasures, Immortal Pills, and wondrous medicines. Even for those fated who enter, how much they can obtain still depends on their skills...”
