Chapter 1466: A Family Member

Two years ago, before Zhang Tie set for Western Theater of Operations, the seed bank that he ordered from Jiang Clan of Herbal Palace had arrived at Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory.

Although being a bit late, the seed bank contained enough seeds in quantity and quality, including 125,471 underground plants, 39,817 aquatic plants as well as hundreds of thousands of kinds of plant seeds. After the arrival of these seeds, Zhang Tie had teleported them into Castle of Black Iron and had Heller deal with them. As of now, except for over 100 rare plants, all the plants in the outside world could be found in Castle of Black Iron.

In recent years, these plants provided more and more Reiki for Castle of Black Iron. Plus the Reiki that was provided by those earlier plants, the quantity of Reiki that Castle of Black Iron could produce per day could already match that of basic energy storage that Elements Abyss could convert every day, even more than the latter.

“Castle of Black Iron could already provide the best geographical environment for the growth of all plant seeds. All the plants are growing pretty well…”

“I’ve seen it…”

When Heller opened his mouth, Zhang Tie had already moved his eyes onto those woods where he had sprayed edible plant seeds.

The walnut woods had already covered hundreds of square miles. All the walnut trees were growing well. Zhang Tie was imagining about the bumper harvest of walnuts in the future. In addition, many fruits and herbal medicines in the walnut woods had become ripe.

The hills where Zhang Tie had sprayed strawberry seeds had been covered with ripe strawberries. Stepping on it, people would feel like walking in the pulp.

The pine trees had been very high. The ground within the pines was covered with a mushroom and large pieces of top-notch truffles. The entire pine woods was like a fairyland.

Some valleys were filled with fresh berries. After falling in swallets and low-lying places, the berries started to ferment, filling the entire valleys with the special aroma that could usually smelt in berry wine taverns.

Furthermore, there was a plain of peanuts covering hundreds of square miles. All the peanuts over there had been ripe, making the entire plain a huge warehouse of peanuts.

Those sunflower seeds that Zhang Tie once sprayed had turned into golden heavenly roads.

Besides, sweet potatoes and fruits could almost be seen everywhere.

Few people had seen paradise; however, many people could imagine it through Castle of Black Iron.

“Those residents in Castle of Black Iron have built many huge warehouses to store grains. They made fresh fruits into wine and spirits as well as preserved and dried fruits. Sweet potatoes are made into starch. Herbal medicines are collected too. Even though residents could reproduce, the growth of the population could never catch up with the speed of the expansion of space in Castle of Black Iron. The larger the space was, the more complete the ecological system would be. That’s the universal law of balance…” Heller told Zhang Tie.

“You mean, I could bring in more people…”

“Castle Lord, it depends on you. But I want to say, there are too few animals in Castle of Black Iron. The existence of enough plants is the foundation of the existence of animals. We’ve already got the foundation…”

“Yes, we could make more preparations for the future…” Zhang Tie nodded as he asked, “There’re already enough Reiki and basical energy storage. As long as we’ve got sufficient merit values, Castle of Black Iron would accomplish its expansion constantly, right?”

After knowing that there were unimaginable existences above sage-level demon knights, Zhang Tie had been intense. The greater the threat was, the more the value of Castle of Black Iron would be; especially after Zhang Tie lost his battle strength. In Zhang Tie’s heart, the more complete Castle of Black Iron was, the more people would he save in the future.

“Castle of Black Iron has already got enormous merit values. What’s more important, the merit values that could be produced in Castle of Black Iron everyday could also match that of Reiki and basic energy storage…”

“What? You mean Castle of Black Iron could produce merit values constantly every day?” Zhang Tie widely opened his eyes, ‘How could Castle of Black Iron produce merit values itself? Is it a new ability that Castle of Black Iron evolved itself?’

“Yes, Castle of Black Iron could already produce enormous merit values every day itself.”

“How?”

“Castle Lord, don’t forget about the bet between you and Sagus.” Heller looked at Zhang Tie as he reminded, “Since Castle Lord won the bet, Sagus’ bloody pledge to the demon god had already taken effect. As a result, many Hua people would avoid miserable lives every day. Actually, these Hua people’s destinies would be changed. Therefore, as long as this bloody pledge takes effect, Castle of Black Iron would gain enormous merit values every day!”

“If this bloody pledge lost its effect, would it not produce merit values any more?”

“Certainly!” Heller nodded as he told Zhang Tie meaningfully, “Therefore, if Castle Lord wants Castle of Black Iron to produce enormous merit values every day, you have to maintain the constraint of the bloody pledge!”

The key was to keep Sagus alive. Otherwise, if a new sage-level knight was arranged to rule the demon army, this bloody pledge to the demon god would not work anymore. By then, Castle of Black Iron would not produce merit values every day anymore; the expansion speed of the space of Castle of Black Iron would also be affected and fewer people could be saved in the future…

As long as Sagus was alive, more people would be teleported into Castle of Black Iron in the future…

Zhang Tie stood on the hillside for a long while as he felt that the world was like a black humor sometimes.

Zhang Tie had already spent 2 days in digesting the fruit of consciousness of universal laws. Additionally, there were fruits of redemption from the gratitude of gulf shrimps and hairy shells. It had been 3 days after he took these fruits of redemption and returned to the head’s backroom of Iron-Dragon Sect.

3 days’ cultivation in Castle of Black Iron was like 3 minutes’ stay in the backroom. Everything remained unchanged in the backroom as the gate was still closed.

However, Zhang Tie was not the very one 3 days ago. After taking the fruit of consciousness of universal laws, Zhang Tie understood that he was small once again. He almost refreshed his concept of the world and realized the real crisis facing humans. Compared to such a crisis, the situation in the Western Theater of Operations was not the toughest. The real crisis facing humans had not arrived yet.

In the backroom, Zhang Tie raised his two hands and watched them. Closely after that, he shook his head as he muttered, “The consciousness of universal laws that could be owned by living beings above sage-level knight plus the battle strength below a knight. What a marvelous match!”

After this self-mockery, Zhang Tie recovered his composure as he walked outside.

After leaving the backroom, Zhang Tie was shocked to see Zhang Chengxu waiting for him.

Zhang Chengxu, Zhang Tie’s nephew and disciple, was slightly frowning. At the sight of Zhang Tie, he slightly relieved his frown as if he let out a sigh.

“Chengxu, why are you here?”

“Second uncle, the eldest uncle has been in Iron-Dragon Sect for one day. He’s waiting for you!” Zhang Chengxu said as he slightly lowered his tone with a bit sad feeling, “Eldest uncle said…said…grandpa’s father’s disease is deteriorating…”
