Castle of Black Iron

Dressy indigo-blue robe, white belt with jade pendant, black moire boots, short hair, a pair of crystal eyes and a faint smile, Zhang Tie looked as bosom as a teenager in the neighborhood and felt like facing spring breeze. 

At this moment, Zhang Tie"s arbitrary qi had already disappeared. He felt like returning to his original nature in Blackhot City. Even if he walked on the street, he would not look too eye-catching.

When a b.u.t.terfly emerged from its coc.o.o.n, it would always complain that its wings were not good enough. When an eaglet flew in the sky, it would always complain that the sky was too low. However, the universe remained unchanged since its birth. The sun rose and the moon set every day. Sometimes, the more magnificent the scene was, the simpler it might look. As the old saying went, the most beautiful sound was silence; the most magnificent scene was invisible; the most perfect thing was like being incomplete. 

The more powerful one was, the better he could return to his own nature!

"It"s been 3 years? Time really flies!" Zhang Tie looked around the Heaven of Light as he shook his head and muttered with a smile. After that, he raised his right foot and walked into the nihility. When Zhang Tie put down his right foot and moved his left foot, he came to the entrance on the second floor of the core area of Mountain Ruins. 

Zhang Tie entered this entrance three years ago in his "dream". This entrance was a 100-m high huge archway. On both sides of the archway, there were two huge and majestic half-human and half-snake statues higher than 100m with overwhelming momentum. In front of the statues, there was a vast, open square. 360 deities" battle puppets were standing on the square in terms of a square matrix. As long as someone wanted to enter this archway, all the 360 deities" battle puppets would be activated. 

It took Zhang Tie almost one month to enter Heaven of Light from here in his "dream" three years ago for the first time. Three years ago, it only took Zhang Tie one day to enter Heaven of Light from here after activating his Battle G.o.d bloodline. However, Zhang Tie left Heaven of Light immediately by moving his foot. 

When he saw the 360 terrifying and arbitrary deities" battle puppets, whom even immortal emperors were scared of, Zhang Tie felt like watching 360 huge toy figurines of Pikachu standing in rows neatly. Besides feeling cute and interesting, Zhang Tie had not more feeling about them anymore. 

Intensive battle qi waves came from thousands of miles away from the periphery of the bottom of the core area of Mountain Ruins time and then. Three years after the core area of Mountain Ruins was opened, many human immortal generals were still looking for fortunes and rarities in the core area of Mountain Ruins or in the periphery of the core area of Mountain Ruins. Many people would take such a rare opportunity that would come in every 360 years. 

"The tower of time in the secret realm of Force Emperor Immortal Palace should still be prepared for me. I"ve exchanged it with 40 cities. I told Force Emperor that I would enter it after one year, but I didn"t tell him the precise time. Although it"s been less than two years, I think Force Emperor should not break his promise. If I cultivate 20 years in the tower of time, I will absolutely consolidate the realm after forming the third immortal chakra. Meanwhile, I could further cultivate the Great Wilderness Sutra!" Zhang Tie muttered, stroking his face. When he took another look at the core area of Mountain Ruins, where a lot of human immortal generals were going after like a flock of ducks, Zhang Tie walked towards Brokensmoke Ocean outside the core area of Mountain Ruins.

Zhang Tie was indeed walking; instead of flying. He just strolled in the air. However, when he took one step forward, he"d already appeared over 200 miles away. With another step, he reached another 200 miles away. Three steps later, Zhang Tie had reached 600 miles away from the core area of Mountain Ruins.

Such a speed couldn"t even be described with the word "fast" as it was close to the speed of light.

...

Two powerhouses who had just promoted to fire immortal generals or semi sages were flying towards Mountain Ruins from outside the core area of Mountain Ruins. All of a sudden, one of them stopped as he shouted with great shock on his face, "Ah..."

"What"s wrong?" After hearing his exclamation, the other fire immortal general stopped immediately as he took precautions and looked around.

"I saw a young man over there. But he disappeared in the blink of an eye," that fire immortal general said as he pointed at a place in front of him with great shock on his face.

"Impossible. You must have a visual hallucination. I didn"t see anything. Even an immortal emperor couldn"t disappear out of the void. Too many powerhouses are heading for the core area of Mountain Ruins. Additionally, there are too many odd things in the core area. As it"s our first time to be here, we must be careful!"

After hearing his partner"s words, that fire immortal general also doubted that he had a visual hallucination. He saw that man appear and disappear in a split second. 

"Perhaps I"ve really got a visual hallucination as it"s close to Mountain Ruins. But I saw him smiling at me just now..."

After such a sudden shock, the two fire immortal generals who discovered Mountain Ruins for the first time became careful immediately.

...

Brokensmoke Ocean was about 130,000 miles away from the core area of Mountain Ruins. Zhang Tie walked towards Brokensmoke Ocean step by step. It only took him about 10 minutes to arrive at Brokensmoke Ocean with less than 1,000 steps.

Brokensmoke Ocean was a floating ocean inside Mountain Ruins. The entire ocean was like a huge piece of blue jelly which constantly changed its shape. Floating in the sky of Mountain Ruins and being adorned with a lot of floating mountains, the entire Brokensmoke Ocean looked this odd. 

The secret realm of Force Emperor Immortal Palace was in a hidden place inside Brokensmoke Ocean. Except for some powers of Force Emperor Immortal Palace, n.o.body else knew about it. 

Zhang Tie entered that secret realm from outside Brokensmoke Ocean with one step.

"Who..." Two supreme immortal generals were guarding the secret realm. When they saw Zhang Tie showing up out of the void, they were both stunned.

"Our respects to you, Your Majesty..." An elder once saw Zhang Tie in Deities Plain. He recognized Zhang Tie at once when the latter appeared. Closely after that, the elder bent towards Zhang Tie with great respect. 

The two elders didn"t know the details about the trade between Zhang Tie and Force Emperor. Of course, Force Emperor would not tell his subordinates about the fact that he was intimidated by Zhang Tie. Force Emperor told them that Zhang Tie exchanged 40 cities in Nine-Heavens Big Domain with the right of use of a time tower in the secret realm for 20 years. In the opinion of the two elders, Force Emperor Immortal Palace benefited a lot through this trade. 

When the two people saw Zhang Tie, they both relieved a deep sigh. The two people had already been waiting for Zhang Tie here for almost two years.

Zhang Tie talked to the two elders with a warm smile, "You must have known about the trade between Force Emperor and me. I"m especially here to keep an appointment!"

"That time tower is available for Your Majesty at any time. Please come in!" That elder who had recognized Zhang Tie pointed at a time tower in the far and talked to Zhang Tie politely.

"I appreciate your hard work!" Zhang Tie nodded. Closely after that, he flew straight to the front of that time tower and entered it.

...

"Is he Dragon Emperor?" The other elder who had seen Zhang Tie for the first time continued with great shock on his face. "Unbelievable. He"s so young!"

"Yes, it"s said that Dragon Emperor has mastered a secret skill to stay young forever!"

"Why didn"t I feel any powerful qi from Dragon Emperor?"

"Did you find how Dragon Emperor enter here just now?" the other elder asked him with a bitter smile and great awe in his tone, "Although we are in cultivation with eyes closed, we"ve already sealed the entrance of the secret realm with our spiritual force. However, when the Dragon Emperor entered, our spiritual force didn"t even respond to it. If Dragon Emperor wants to kill us, we don"t even know how we"re killed. We could never see through the cultivation base of a powerhouse like Dragon Emperor!"

After hearing his words, the other elder heaved a deep sigh as he didn"t speak anymore.

...

20 days later, Zhang Tie walked out of that tower of time calmly. After bidding a farewell to the two elders, he left there immediately.

On the same day, Zhang Tie came to Emperor NvWa"s Palace again.

When Tang Mei saw Zhang Tie again, she became stunned. After 2 minutes" silence, she let out a deep sigh and uttered with a smile, "Powerhouses who could form two immortal chakras have not appeared among humans and demons for tens of thousands of years in Motian Realm since the far-ancient war between deities. Unexpectedly, you"ve already formed three immortal chakras in only 3 years. Brother, Motian Realm was already like a toy for you!"

"Haha, everything in the universe follows their rule. There are numerous living beings in Motian Realm. I"m just an ordinary person who has good luck!" Zhang Tie said with a smile.

"Brother, are you here to bid farewell to me?" Tang Mei walked towards Zhang Tie. Closely after that, she put her arms around Zhang Tie and leaned against him tenderly.

"Hmm, I am. I"ve got only one thing to deal with in Motian Realm. After dealing with it, I will leave here!" Zhang Tie said with a smile as he stroked Tang Mei"s hair.

"What"s it?"

"The Abyss Demon Domain and the last demon emperor hiding in there. After Abyss Demon Domain was wiped out, the remaining demons in Motian Realm will not arouse any trouble like gra.s.shoppers at the end of autumn!"

...

After staying in Emperor NvWa"s Palace for one day, Zhang Tie came to Tigerback Mountain and stayed there with Bian Heng for one day. On the third day, he calmly left Tigerback Mountain for the nest of demons in Motian Realm——Abyss Demon Domain...
