Chapter 1448: Chapter 1448 Why are you protecting ?
The two lay back-to-back, and the atmosphere finally wasn’t as awkward as before when they were facing each other, bodies so close they could feel each other’s breath.
“Why did you protect earlier?”
Carson Flores answered candidly, “No reason, just an instinctive reaction.”
Selah Ellison Fairy snorted lightly, “I’m much stronger than you.”
Carson humd in agreent, “Naturally. Outside, I definitely wouldn’t have done so. Mainly, it’s because I can’t engage in cultivation practice here. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to mask my life aura. My bones are a bit sturdier, so without cultivation, I could manage a bit better.”
Selah Ellison Fairy said indifferently, “Considering your dedication to saving , I’ll let this matter go. But don’t overthink anything, or you’ll bear the consequences yourself.”
Carson chuckled, not taking her words to heart.
“Alright!”
A woman with such overwhelming strength, encountering sothing like this—if she wanted to kill soone, it would be completely understandable.
The fact that she refrained from harming him ant she was at least sowhat reasonable.
Though she acted forceful and domineering, it was already rare enough for her to show such restraint.
After a pause, Carson asked, “How long do we need to hide here?”
“A few more days. We can’t be careless. If it targets us, I might still have a chance to escape, but you’re as good as dead!”
“Alright!”
Carson closed his eyes, regulated his breathing, and entered a state of embryonic respiration for rest. After all, the air here was limited.
Selah Ellison Fairy did the sa, and the two lay quietly in the dim underground space, back-to-back, utterly silent.
Like this, several days passed.
At the beginning, there were still tremors from outside. Gradually, the vibrations ceased.
“Let’s go take a look!”
The fairy and Carson broke through the soil and flew out from underground.
Carson looked around and couldn’t help but gasp in shock.
The destructive power of the Golden-Winged Great Roc was simply overwhelming!
In Carson’s mory, this hiding spot had been in a mountain valley, under towering peaks, surrounded by endless mountain ranges with countless summits. But now, within Carson’s field of view, there wasn’t a single mountain peak left!
All the peaks had been leveled to the ground. All the ancient trees reaching into the sky had been snapped in two. The ground was covered with enormous craters, one after another, and crisscrossing, bottomless gorges.
It was terrifying!
Fortunately, that giant beast had raged for a few days without finding its target and had finally left.
Carson turned his head to ask, “Fairy, what do we do now?”
Selah Ellison Fairy was studying Carson. In the sunlight, Carson looked even more courageous and striking, with an extraordinary deanor.
Thinking about the recent experiences, Selah Ellison Fairy inexplicably felt a slight unease in her heart.
“Let’s go find the Divine Brilliance Tower!”
Carson asked in surprise, “Fairy, are you also searching for the Divine Brilliance Tower?”
Selah Ellison Fairy responded lightly, “Is that strange?”
Carson thought for a mont and realized it wasn’t. Those with lesser strength had their own desires and aims, while those with greater strength had theirs as well. The Divine Brilliance Tower was said to encompass everything and had what everyone sought. Naturally, it could fulfill Selah Ellison Fairy’s needs too.
Carson chuckled, “Not strange, just that the Divine Brilliance Tower is elusive and hard to find.”
Selah Ellison Fairy nodded, “We’ll wander a bit more. If we still can’t find it, we’ll leave.”
“Alright!”
The two quickly left the area devastated by destruction and visibly relaxed afterward.
Carson asked curiously, “There are countless demonic beasts in the Blackstone Mountain Range, but no one ever ntioned a Golden-Winged Great Roc before…”
Selah Ellison Fairy answered, “It moved here in recent years. It resides deep within the Blackstone Mountain Range, a place even cultivators rarely venture. Naturally, few are aware of its presence.”
“Oh!”
Selah Ellison Fairy asked, “You’re searching for the Divine Brilliance Tower. What do you want from it?”
Carson answered, “The Soul Separation Technique.”
Carson didn’t dare ntion the manipulation spell for the Mirror of Elental Harmony. Delarosa had instructed him to keep it a secret and use it sparingly, to avoid drawing attention and inciting others’ greed, which could lead to murder for the treasure.
After all, this magical treasure was mighty enough to kill eighteen powerful beings in one blast. Carson wouldn’t dare casually reveal its existence.
Never mind powerful beings, even a random True Immortal could easily obliterate him.
Selah Ellison Fairy frowned, “What do you want it for?”
Carson replied, “A relative of mine had their body taken over by soone else, but their soul remains intact. I want to separate their soul from the intruder…”
Selah Ellison Fairy nodded, “The Soul Separation Technique can indeed achieve that. Divine Brilliance Tower includes all sorts of things—it should have it. However, I’ve heard the Spirit-Separation Sect of Dragon Spirit Continent specializes in soul-related techniques. They must know the Soul Separation Technique too.”
Carson smiled bitterly, “That’s true. I’ve inquired before, and they told the sa. But it’s said that on Dragon Spirit Continent, the Dragon Clan and the Human Race are slaughtering each other like mad. The entire continent is nearly in ruins. With my strength, if I recklessly head there, I probably won’t even survive, much less find the Soul Separation Technique.”
Selah Ellison Fairy nodded in agreent, “That’s true. The fighting there is indeed intense, going on for tens of thousands of years. With your current Human Immortal strength, it would be very dangerous to go.”
Carson shrugged helplessly and said, “That’s why I ca here hoping to try my luck with the Divine Brilliance Tower… What about you, Fairy? Why are you here? Can you share?”
