Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 1673: The Terrifying Power

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

On the next early morning, all the immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City had arrived at the wilderness over 60 miles away from Heavenly Square City as they gazed at the huge pit in the middle of the barren land with solemn looks.

“There was a hill yesterday. How could...how could it turn into a pit today...” Liu Meng told Zhang Tie using his battle qi as he took in a deep breath. Given Liu Meng’s tone, Zhang Tie could sense Liu brothers fear despite being always careless.

In fact, almost none of the immortal generals at present could stay calm.

Of course, Zhang Tie also disguised to be solemn like the others with a frown and serious look. Pursing his lips, he was watching this huge pit and those collapsed, destroyed even charred trees, mountain rocks and hills within dozens of miles. In fact, it had become a terrifying, depopulated zone within dozens of miles.

All the people in Heavenly Square City were in turmoil last night. All the immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace including Zhang Tie were requested to put on their flight suits and make tour inspection over the city in case of emergencies. Not until this early morning did the turmoil relieve slightly. All the immortal generals then got to the barren hill to check what happened here under the leadership of Head Huang.

From the sky, it was a huge hundred of meters deep pit whose diameter was over 0.6 miles. The neighboring terrain was changed as all the hills within dozens of miles were compressed as if they had suffered an unimaginable disaster.

Everyone above the huge, deep pit was shocked by what they saw as they remained quiet for quite a while.

Zhang Tie’s look was half real because he was the “culprit” of all these. Zhang Tie was actually the first one who “saw” this scene last night. However, before he took a careful look at it, the entire immortal palace in Heavenly Square City had been mobilized. Zhang Tie was also “woken up” by Leng Manxue and was ready to fight. He even made a tour inspection in Heavenly Square City overnight.

It was impactful to watch and sense the scene created by himself. Besides, Zhang Tie felt extremely lucky. Thankfully, he made the experiment within this hill over 60 miles away from Heavenly Square City. If he chose Zi Clan Castle as his target, Heavenly Square City might have been swept over by him while millions of people in the city would have been burned into ash by his trial strike. If so, he would have made big trouble.

Zhang Tie didn’t imagine that his trial strike could realize such a terrifying effect as its power was far greater than his most powerful kinetic strike. Neither did Zhang Tie know how he could make this. Last night, he was crystal clear that the two energies annihilated the moment they collided with each other. At the same time, a strong light appeared from nowhere with a terrifying lightning bolt, and then, it became all these.

“Let’s take a look down there...” Huang Baimei finally opened his mouth after suspending over there for quite a while. By flapping the wings of his flight suit, he instantly shot towards the huge pit, closely followed by Zhang Tie and the others.

After coming to the bottom of the pit and watching the situation over there, everybody turned more solemn.

Within the hundreds of meters deep pit, there was not a single drop of water. Besides, it was pretty smooth inside the pit since the bottom and the walls of the pit were as thick as the remains of burning candles.

Watching the others checking around meticulously, Zhang Tie also squatted down as he easily got a piece of a palm-sized gray object out of the ground, it was like glass or glaze despite its color was not ordinary. It felt very strange. In the far, there were black, light-blue, greyish-green, even dark red objects just like being on a color palette.

Kids might feel curious about this place; however, immortal generals were scared by this scene.

Face turning slightly pale, Ji Yuelan slightly approached Zhang Tie. At this moment, she could feel safe only beside Zhang Tie.

“These objects were left by rocks at high temperature. Its content was similar to that of glaze. The colors were reflected by metals inside the rocks and the soil...” Leng Manxue explained distantly as she took a dark green crystal.

“Let’s take a look in the surroundings, we might find something important!” Head Huang ordered while all the others started to fly around the deep pit. In a few minutes, they all came back in vain as they shook their heads.

“Let’s talk about it after getting back to the immortal palace...”

They then flew back towards Heavenly Square City behind Head Huang.

Under their foot, all the surrounding hills were destroyed. If not these hills offset the power of this huge, deep pit like walls, Heavenly Square City might have suffered a greater loss.

Watching this, Zhang Tie felt lucky once again.

The flight suit helped him to move fast and flexibly. The moment the wings extended, the flight suit would be completely driven by battle qi. At full speed, common immortal generals could reach about 600 miles per hour with the flight suit. It was said that there were more advanced flight suits. However, such a gadget didn’t exist in Taixia Country. Even though Zhang Tie had tried many kinds of flight modes, he still felt fresh about the flight suits today.

On the way back, they all remained silent as the atmosphere became a bit solemn. Although being relaxed inside, Zhang Tie dared not display it; instead, he was just immersed in driving and studying the flight suit.

Air floating metal was a key material of the flight suit. Besides, Zhang Tie found that the flight suit needed bizarre crystals which contained some strange runes. Only by combining the three elements could one fly freely in the sky by controlling the flight suit outfit using battle qi.

“Deputy head, you have really worked hard these days, hah. You preferred to hide in your room for cultivation than reaching out to me...” Ji Yuelan asked Zhang Tie as she approached him.

The moment this beauty glared at Liu brothers, the two guys had been pushed away from Zhang Tie.

Liu brothers felt normal about Ji Yuelan approaching Zhang Tie; nor did Huang Baimei and Leng Manxue care about that. Only Zhou Baifei, who was not far away, turned around and took a look over here.

By now, Zhang Tie had already known that they had held an inaugural ceremony when his mind sea saw an utter change. Everybody at present had already officially joined the immortal palace and got their own titles.

For instance, that toy boy was called Zhou Baifei, who was the general priest of the immortal palace.

A few days ago, Zhang Tie didn’t have a strong aversion to him. However, after seeing how he cheated a woman, Zhou Baifei instantly turned into a toy boy in Zhang Tie’s mind. Zhang Tie despised such men the most who cheated and took advantage of women on purpose. In Zhang Tie’s opinion, he was completely an idiot, despite his handsome look and high level in the immortal palace; he was even more inferior than those male staff who lived on meeting rich women’s sexual demand. No matter what, the latter would not betray his love or cheat a woman. However, the prior took advantage of one’s affection. That was disgusting!

“I have to make progress...” Zhang Tie replied as kindly as before as if he had not noticed Ji Yuelan’s discontent.

“Hah!” Ji Yuelan snorted as she continued, “Wish you promote to an immortal emperor as soon as possible...”

“Thank you, sister. If I promote to an immortal emperor, I will let you be an elder of my immortal palace...” Zhang Tie replied solemnly.

“Hah, who cares...”

“You don’t like being an elder? Alright, it seems that sister wants to pave quilt for me...”

“You’re so boring...”

It sounded so enchanting; however, given the voice, the girl felt opposite.

“What do you think of the huge pit?”

“It seems to be a natural disaster! Zhang Tie said instantly.

“But I don’t think so...”

“If not, do you think it’s created by people?”

“But even a supreme immortal general couldn’t make such a terrifying strike...”

“That’s a natural disaster then!”

“Alas, I always feel Motian Realm being more and more unsafe...” Ji Yuelan sighed with emotions.

After a short while, those people had got back to Heavenly Square City.

From the sky, the city had already recovered its order, except for many people on the open urban square, some of which had pitched up tents as if they were worried about another earthquake.

Those immortal generals then landed at the entrance of the immortal palace on its top...
