“It’s said that the possible enemy might be Taiyi Old Man of Taiyi Fantasy Sect. His Real Sun Flames is unusual. Here are some fire-isolation pills that I’ve made a few days ago. It’s more effective than fire-resistant medicament. Head, if it’s really Taiyi Old Man, you could take these fire-isolation pills before the duel. It could strengthen the fire-resistant capability of your protective battle qi!” Sun Tiancheng said as he took out a jade vial and gave it to Zhang Tie. Scratching his head, he continued, “I’m not sure whether my fire-resistant pill could be effective in defending Real Sun Flames; but ordinary knights could stay in high-temperature magma two times longer within one day after taking it. I’ve tried my best. Hopefully, it could be useful…”
“Thanks, Elder Sun…” Zhang Tie took that jade vial as he opened its lid.
There were three longan-sized crystal pills in the jade vial. The moment the vial was opened, Zhang Tie had felt a cold fragrance while a white fog rose out of the mouth of the vial. Zhang Tie instantly covered it. He knew the high value of this pill. Even though he had taken so many fiery lotus roots, it was also not bad to have one more guarantee.
“It’s Iron-Dragon Sect’s honor to have Elder Sun join in!” Zhang Tie sighed with mood again.
The Herbal King was too sincere. Although Sun Tiancheng behaved a bit weird sometimes, he was definitely a righteous and heroic man.
Zhang Tie then put the pills into his portable space-teleportation equipment.
“We four gained a piece of iced glaze in South Border a few years ago. With it, you would be resistant to low and high temperature. It might be useful to resist Real Sun Flames…” Mr. Bamboo said again as he took out a half-palm sized ice glaze and presented it to Zhang Tie.
Watching their extremely sincere eyes, Zhang Tie instantly took it and put it on. After that, he appreciated them, “Thank you so much…”
Watching Zhang Tie put on the piece of ice glaze, four weird sages revealed a happy smile at the same time. Bai Suxian pouted her mouth at that piece of ice glaze as she wanted to say something however, she swallowed her words back when Zhang Tie threw a glance at her by the corner of his eye.
“Ahem ahem…erm, I’m really sorry. I’ve not taken any good gift for you!” Fan Sanguang coughed twice as he said bashfully.
“It’s fine. Elder Fan, as our member. No need to be that polite!” Zhang Tie spoke with a smile as he wove his hand, saying, “Elder Fan, I wonder how did you meet them?”
“Haha, it’s a coincidence. As an independent knight, I don’t have a private airboat. Therefore, I could only fly here alone. On the way, I encountered the four elders, Mr. Plum, Mr. Orchid, Mr. Bamboo and Mr. Chrysanthemum. They also come from Suizhou Province like me. As I’ve met them in the Dongtian, after greeting with each other, we come here together. As for Elder Sun, we encountered him outside the airboat just now…”
After bursting out laughing, Zhang Tie said, “This is God’s will. It appears that you’re destined to join Iron-Dragon Sect!”
“After having six new elders, Iron-Dragon Sect would further expand for real!” Mountain Lifting Hermit said as he nodded along with all the other old elders of Iron-Dragon Sect. Zhang Tie would have a duel with three sage-level knights tomorrow, who could imagine that Iron-Dragon Sect could have six new elders and realize a sharp increase in battle strength today? The value of the Herbal King was far greater than that of a shadow knight. As for the four weird sages, one of them was earth knight, three of them were black iron knights above seven changes. Although appearing to be a black iron knight, Fan Sanguang felt a bit unusual.
It symbolized the prosperity of Iron-Dragon Sect when so many bizarre powerhouses joined it at such a critical moment. As long as they tided over this challenge, Iron-Dragon Sect would have a brighter future for real.
“Head, have you heard the gossip about Yinhai?” Fan Sanguang straightened up as he asked Zhang Tie, attracting the attention of all the others at once.
Zhang Tie’s eyebrows slightly moved as he answered, “It’s said that Yinhai was previously a huge inland lake; however, the water disappeared overnight!”
“I don’t mean the gossip before the Catastrophe; I mean that about Yinhai recently!”
“What’s that?” Zhang Tie asked out of curiosity.
“Years ago, I wandered and traveled across Taixia Country, ahem ahem!” Fan Sanguang coughed twice as he continued, “I stayed in Suizhou Province for a few days and contacted figures at the bottom of the society. I was told that something happened to many airships of business groups and companies in Suizhou Province on Yinhai…”
“Something? What’s that?” Zhang Tie turned serious.
“They disappeared!”
“Disappeared?” Yan Feiqing asked with a frown.
“Yes, they disappeared. It’s said that those airships met sandstorms and disappeared in the Gobi Desert. In fact, those business groups and companies had dispatched people to discover the wrecks of those airships for many times. However, only a few wrecks were discovered. Because many airships disappeared in this region over the past 100-odd years, the local airships of Suizhou Province always detour around this region as those crews regard this region as an ominous land! I don’t know why the three top sects choose this region as the battlefield; perhaps it’s just a coincidence or the aiding strength of Taiyi Old Man could play its role to the utmost in this environment; it’s always no bad to be careful…”
All the knights in the parlor remained silent at a stroke as they started to think about the connotation of this news. Elder Fan’s words gave them a warning.
With a slight frown, Zhang Tie became silent for a few seconds before nodding and saying, “Thanks for your warning, Elder Fan, I will take care of myself tomorrow. I think it’s not that easy for the three top sects to play any trick in the public!”
Whatever, it was just a speculation. They didn’t need to worry so much. Additionally, Yinhai was indeed suitable for a duel between powerful knights. Even a duel between sage-level knights wouldn’t do harm to the environment. Additionally, as was told by Elder Fan, the hot climate here might be suitable to the effect of Real Sun Flames of Taiyi Old Man.
…
With six more elders, the parlor of the airboat became more boisterous. However, they all knew that Zhang Tie needed to prepare for the coming duel. Therefore, after chatting for a short while, they had left, leaving time to Zhang Tie and his family members.
Feng Cangwu returned to the airboat of Heavenly Fortune Sect; Immortal Mountain Lifting, Lu Zhongming and Lin Huanxi led Sun Tiancheng, Fan Sanguang and the four weird sages to the small conference room of the airboat for a short chat. By the way, they introduced Iron-Dragon Sect to them from all aspects.
Zhang Tie let Pandora have a chat with Yan Feiqing and Bai Suxian. He then took Zhang Chenglei, Zhang Chengting and Zhang Chengpei to the back room of the airboat.
After entering the back room, the four people sat down. Zhang Tie then inquired them about their experience in Heavenly Fortune Sect over these years.
When they were born in Taixia Country, Zhang Tie was in Waii Subcontinent. When they joined Heavenly Fortune Sect, Zhang Tie was framed as the killer of the household register official Fan in Fuhai City and was escaping everywhere. It could be imagined how much stress and hardships the three brothers were sustaining these years. Nobody could promote to a knight with a fluke mind. Even though having an exceptional flair, if one didn’t hone himself diligently, he could not become a knight.
Zhang Tie felt sorry about his three sons.
When in Heavenly Fortune Sect, the greatest driving force for the three brothers to cultivate hardly was that they could help their dad defeat enemies together.
When Zhang Tie was told that the three brothers had entered the tower of time at the age of 12 and cultivated inside for over 10 years before promoting to knights, he couldn’t stand dropping tears as a father.
Closing his eyes, Zhang Tie’s heart raced. Not until he recovered his composure and his tears disappeared did he open his eyes again as he sent an order.
“Close your eyes and stay calm…”
After hearing Zhang Tie’s words, the three brothers exchanged a glance with each other before entering the state at the same time as was told by Zhang Tie.
After taking a look at them, Zhang Tie gave out a dignified golden light all over as he stretched out his hand and touched Zhang Chenglei’s head. In a split second, Zhang Tie’s gnosis about swordsmanship, the essence of boxing and spear usage and secret methods such as Soul Forbidden Method were transferred into space above the mind sea of Zhang Chenglei in the form of seeds being waiting for sprouting.
Zhang Tie was implementing a special, top enlightenment method of Bloody Soul Sutra ; instead of Bright Enlightenment Method . In spiritual and bloodline-related realms, secret methods of Bloody Soul Temple ranked top among humans…
