Castle of Black Iron

After flying over 200,000 miles in over 10 days, they finally arrived at the bottom of Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer near the border of heavens of Motian Realm.

Like a border, the thousands of miles thick Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer divided Motian Realm into two utterly different worlds.

The world under Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer belonged to commoners. The world above Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer belonged to powers, which had numerous secrets, rarities and unimaginable dangers and tests.

When he came here last time, Zhang Tie was only in the 5 changes realm of shadow knight. Despite his powerful ability as a divine dominator, Zhang Tie had to stop under the Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer. This time, Zhang Tie was already in the 7 change realm of the heavenly knight. The natural chasm couldn’t become Zhang Tie’s barrier anymore.

Of course, this time, Zhang Tie got a partner called Immortal Being in Clouds.

Suspending under the Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer, Zhang Tie looked up as red and blue lights flashed across Zhang Tie’s pure pupils like meteors and rainbows.

When he observed the red and blue dreamlike border, Zhang Tie pretty much felt heroic. It only took Zhang Tie 2 years to promote to the 7 change realm of the heavenly knight from the 5 change realm of shadow knight. However, it was not an end; instead, it was a start towards a new height. This time, after entering the Mountain Ruins, Zhang Tie intended to promote to a semi-level sage in 10 months.

In the 600 miles thick void at the bottom of Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer, it was misty blue. Different shapes of icicles appeared and disappeared every once in a while. Some icicles were like fine sands; some were like stones; some were like sharp blades; some were like spears. These icicles appeared in the void like meteors and disappeared like flowing sands in wind. It was the icy zone at the bottom of Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer.

Above this icy zone, it was as fiery as faint rouge as thick as about 600 miles too. In that air zone, it was fire which appeared and disappeared every once in a while. Some were sparkles; some were flames; some were blazes and fire rains. It was a zone with the manifested fire element.

“It’s already October 14. It will be the 15th day of this month tomorrow. We’d better not enter it for the time being. After replenishing our energy and battle qi tomorrow, we will penetrate through Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer…” Jiang Hu continued to impart his experience to Zhang Tie as he looked up at the Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer solemnly, “We should penetrate through it as fast as possible. It’s a taboo for people to stay inside for too long. The ice and fire heavenly wind could match the battle qi strikes of wind immortal generals. As long as we enter it, our protective battle qi will be hit by the ice and fire heavenly wind at any moment. The longer we stay inside, the more energy we have to consume. As long as our protective battle qi collapses, we will become sh*t in a split second. If we stay inside too long, we will consume too much energy. On this occasion, if we were ambushed by demons, we would suffer a great loss…”

“Will demons ambush us over there?” Zhang Tie asked as he moved his eyes away from the Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer after a light flashed across his eyes.

“Of course, when an ordinary wind immortal general penetrates through the complete Ice and Fire Heavenly Wind Layer, he will lose at least 30% of overall strength. At that moment, he is in his weakest state!” Immortal Being in Clouds nodded as he continued, “Demons ambush humans; humans also ambush demons. It’s full of tricks. It depends who is ambushed. Sometimes, the one being ambushed will trap his enemy at the same time. Sometimes, the one being trapped will continue to trap the one who traps him. For instance, if I’m a supreme immortal general, I could follow you up secretly. When you fall into the trap of the enemy and find that a wind demon immortal general wants to hurt you, I will rush inside to kill the demon. If that wind demon immortal generals is followed by two supreme demon immortal generals, we could only escape…”

Zhang Tie stroked his chin as he nodded, “Hmm, let’s rest one day then…”

After saying that, Zhang Tie sat in the air with crossed legs, eyes closed. So did Immortal Being in Clouds. With a distance of dozens of meters, the two people started to adjust their qis and recover their energy as fast as possible.

If commoners didn’t sleep for 100 hours continuously, they might die at any moment. As wind immortal generals, the two people had not eaten or drunk anything in the past half a month. Besides, as they were flying constantly, they had consumed a lot of energy. Even though Zhang Tie didn’t care about it, Immortal Being in Clouds looked a bit tired.

Only after a few hours, it had been the 15th day of this month. The two people then took out their food and fresh water from their own space-teleportation equipment so as to replenish their energy.

After drinking water and eating food, the two people started to recover their energy rapidly. Immortal Being in Clouds even took a medicinal pill. After replenishing enough energy, Immortal Being in Clouds’ face gradually turned red.

Zhang Tie contacted Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace and enquired about the situations facing Woods Medium-sized Domain and Dark Valley.

It was Elder Hou Moyuan who was on duty in the Qianji Agency of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace. After receiving Zhang Tie’s message, Hou Moyuan quickly gave feedback to Zhang Tie.

In only a few days, the situations facing Woods Medium-sized Domain and Dark Valley turned worse.

When Zhang Tie was eating fruits and soul-washing pills in Castle of Black Iron, some places in Motian Realm had been turned upside. The development of the situation rushed towards unknowns like derailed trains.

Star Emperor Immortal Palace, Force Emperor Immortal Palace and Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace broke out a fierce war in Woods Medium-sized Domain. As a result, the entire Woods Medium-sized Domain became the battlefield of the three immortal palaces.

As for the fuse of this war, the two emperor-level immortal palaces and Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace held different opinions.

The two emperor-level immortal palaces condemned Bu Qianchou the Heavenly Sunshine King of Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace for raiding the residences of the two emperor-level immortal palaces in Woods Medium-sized Domain and killing 37 powers including the deputy heads of Force Emperor Immortal Palace. Therefore, they started the war. However, Heavenly Sunshine King accused the two emperor-level immortal palaces of carrying out a bloodbath in the headquarters of Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace in Goldensunshine City in the same day and killing over 50 powers who were attending a conference over there, including many branch heads in Woods Medium-sized Domain and over 3,000 immortal soldiers and guards. As a result, half of Goldensunshine City was destroyed in the battle flames…

Force Emperor Immortal Palace, Star Emperor Immortal Palace and Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace couldn’t ever bear such sufferings. Therefore, the conflicts between the three immortal palaces expanded in Woods Medium-sized Domain in an instant like how sparkles spread over a prairie…

Actually, as long as they found those people being involved in this event, they would know who was the culprit. As a mediator with special status, Emperor NvWa Palace also prepared to do that. Pitifully, since September 14, when the war broke out, Bu Qianchou the Heavenly Sunshine King, head of Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace had been missing.

According to Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace, as the two emperor-level immortal palaces were bringing pressure on Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace step by step, Bu Qianchu had long arrived at Woods Medium-sized Domain so as to stabilize the overall situation facing Golden Sunshine City. On September 14, some immortal generals that were assigned by Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace to keep an eye on the current situation facing the two emperor immortal palaces suddenly disappeared. Bu Qianchou felt it was unusual; therefore, he went out to look for them. Unexpectedly, after Bu Qianchou left Golden Sunshine City for a few hours, a lot of powers of the two emperor-level immortal palaces suddenly launched a sneak attack towards Golden Sunshine City and caused a bloodbath.

Force Emperor Immortal Palace and Star Emperor Immortal Palace announced that Bu Qianchou had escaped away due to fear after killing so many powers of the two emperor-level immortal palaces. However, according to Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace, Bu Qianchou was enticed to leave his base first; then almost all the powers of Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace were swept over by people. The two emperor-level immortal palaces were all ruthless and greedy. As for Bu Qianchou, he must have been killed by Force Emperor or Star Emperor. With this opinion, all the remaining ones of Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace were in grief and indignation. Holding high the banner of avenging Bu Qianchou and the damage of Golden Sunshine City, the entire Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace had mobilized all of its members to launch a holistic war like a powder keg being lighted.

These days, the war between Star Emperor Immortal Palace, Force Emperor Immortal Palace and Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace in Woods Medium-sized Domain had already shocked the entire Motian Realm. When everyone was dumbfounded by what had happened in Wood Medium-sized Domain, except for Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace which didn’t take a stand, almost all the supreme immortal general’s immortal palaces namely king-level immortal palaces joined in hands with each other and prepared to support Heavenly Sunshine Immortal Palace. In only a few days, those powers of king-level immortal palaces had been ready to leave for Wood Medium-sized Domain facing the great stress from the two “aggressive” emperor-level immortal palaces.

At this moment, of course Star Emperor Immortal Palace and Force Emperor Immortal Palace were reluctant to show weakness; especially the latter whose deputy heads had been killed assigned a lot of powers to Wood Medium-sized Domain.

At this moment, refugees were escaping in all directions in Wood Medium-sized Domain. As a result, people could apprehend danger in every sound. If not Emperor NvWa’s Palace which was mediating this case, both parties might have long broke out a holistic war…

However, in the past September, Wood Medium-sized Domain was not the only place that shocked Motian Realm. In Dark Valley, many immortal generals who went to Dark Valley for Runed Emperor’s immortal outfit and Tadpole Runes Sutra were said to disappear a few days ago.

As for many people, the second news was more bone-chilling…
