Castle of Black Iron Chapter 1179 - Skyrocketing Overall Strength

Chapter 1179: Skyrocketing Overall Strength

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem
On December 1st, the 903rd year of Black Iron Calendar…
At this moment, the sky was a bit white while the ground within 30,000 square miles was covered with rising vapor as usual. As the first ray of sunlight reached the smoking crater, two figures broke out of the gurgling magma. After reaching high above the volcano, they suspended in the sky.
They were Zhang Tie and his old slave Zhang Gui.
It was really a great achievement. After Zhang Tie woke up, it took him 11 days to digest all the booties.
Although it was less than 2 weeks, Zhang Tie had been greatly different than when he followed Han Zhengfang here 2 weeks ago.
2 weeks ago, Zhang Tie formed 38 scales on his water chakra and had just reached 1 change earth knight realm. 2 weeks later, Zhang Tie had already formed 161 scales on his water chakra and entered 4 change earth knight realm.
From 1 change realm to 4 change realm, Zhang Tie had strengthened his ability as an earth knight for 3 times. As a result, his overall strength had been increased by 30%, including his battle strength.
As Zhang Tie killed Han Zhengfang in the deep magma sea, he was severely injured under the great pressure of the magma. After strengthening himself 3 times, the protective force of Zhang Tie’s protective battle qi and his anti-striking ability surged once again. Zhang Tie had tried some times during these days and found that his protective battle qi and anti-striking ability had been intensified by about 40%.
Additionally, Zhang Tie’s strength, speed and sensing capability of knight’s consciousness had increased by 20% to 30%. What Zhang Tie was most interested in was that his battle qi started to become denser, more compact and more powerful. Additionally, his battle qi started to be solid from virtual.
The fruit of judgment enabled the last body-separation skill of his immortal rune to promote to a super realm. The super body-separation skill could never be matched by the preliminary body-separation skill in all aspects.
The latest fruit of bloodline brought Zhang Tie 15,687 points of bloodline energy; plus those of the former fruit of bloodline that he had not used, Zhang Tie could activate 17,404 points of bloodline energy in total.
Because Zhang Tie had not considered which bloodlines to activate with these bloodline energy points, he didn’t use them for the time being.
After taking that fruit of brilliance which contained super strong spiritual energy, Zhang Tie could launch an attack by that secret item-level Thor’s Hammer with the ability of divine dominator much easily. At this moment, even Zhang Tie himself couldn’t imagine how strong was his spiritual energy.
However, compared to all the above improvements, Zhang Tie felt that his largest achievement was the Bloody Soul Sutra .
Zhang Tie spent a few days in browsing the contents of the Bloody Soul Sutra . The secret methods, knowledge and cultivation system in the Bloody Soul Sutra had greatly widened his horizon.
Evidently, it was impossible for Zhang Tie to grasp those great secret methods and battle skills in the Bloody Soul Sutra in such a short period. If not enter a secluded cultivation for dozens of years, he could never make any great achievement about this classic. However, after reviewing the former Soul Forbidden Method that he had cultivated referring to the original contents in Bloody Soul Sutra , Zhang Tie’s Soul Forbidden Method had entered a wholly new realm.
After browsing Bloody Soul Sutra, Zhang Tie realized how lucky he was on that day. Han Zhengfang was a heavenly knight. In the Sincerity Garden of Xuanyuan Hill, Han Zhengfang used a secret skill of Bloody Soul Sutra to elevate his level to the semi-sage realm. After escaping away from Xuanyuan Hill, his vitality had been severely weakened, causing Han Zhengfang to directly decline to shadow knight from heavenly knight. Therefore, Zhang Tie got a chance to kill him. If Han Zhengfang’s realm didn’t decline or after he cultivated for a period, Zhang Tie would not have such a chance anymore. That was God’s will.
‘The secret skill of lock of bloody chakra is also recorded in the Bloody Soul Sutra . This secret method could coordinate with Purgatory Samsara Method pretty well. However, it’s not easy to practice this secret skill. I couldn’t practice it until I promote to a shadow knight. Additionally, one has to suffer a great loss for using this secret skill. If not being flurried, Han Zhengfang would never use this secret skill at the risk of his own life.’
If Zhang Tie was free or in a secluded cultivation, he didn’t mind spending 10 years in studying the secret skills in Bloody Soul Sutra. However, Zhang Tie knew that it was not the right moment for him to enter a secluded cultivation somewhere. After making big trouble in Xuanyuan Hill 2 weeks ago, Zhang Tie knew that it must have been in a large-scale turmoil outside. Therefore, Zhang Tie could only hurriedly form his water chakra and take a lot of fruits before leaving Castle of Black Iron.
After flying out of the crater, Zhang Tie immediately contacted with his elder brother and Bai Suxian by the remote-sensing crystal.
As it was another space in Castle of Black Iron, the remote-sensing crystal was not available inside it; neither was it available in portable space-teleportation equipment.
Soon after contacting with Zhang Yang his elder brother and confirming the identities in jargons, Zhang Tie had received a lot of words.
“You’re not in Xuanyuan Hill?”
“Are you alright these days?”
“I could not contact with you these days, I was worried about you very much!”
“It’s chaotic across Taixia Country. Youzhou Province has entered a state of emergency as a whole; Yanghe Prefecture is in the state of siege. Our parents are worried about you so much, but I dare not tell them about your news!”
“I was always sleepless these days as I was afraid that I couldn’t receive your news when in deep sleep.”
“Whether you had long known that there was going to be a turmoil in Xuanyuan Hill? Otherwise, why did you tell me to leave in advance?”
Zhang Yang’s news arrived so fast even before Zhang Tie asked him about the latest situation. Zhang Tie could imagine how anxious was his elder brother, which enabled Zhang Tie to sense a bit brotherhood and warmth.
Of course, Jinwu Business Group would not miss such an important occasion of Treasures Meeting in Xuanyuan Hill, because this was the best stage for expanding the popularity of all-purpose medicament. When Zhang Tie was in Xuanyuan Hill, Zhang Yang was actually in Xuanyuan Hill too. The two people were busy doing their businesses. Zhang Tie didn’t go to find Zhang Yang as he was afraid of bringing trouble to Zhang Yang. One day before his revenge, Zhang Tie told Zhang Yang to leave Xuanyuan Hill for Youzhou Province by airboat without landing in any intermediate cities in the way as soon as possible through remote-sensing crystal without telling him about the reason.
Zhang Tie left Xuanyuan Hill by airboat on the morning of November 14th. On the evening of November 15th, Zhang Tie started his revenge, sending the entire Xuanyuan Hill into big chaos. As a wise man, of course Zhang Yang could guess that Zhang Tie must know something before telling him to leave Xuanyuan Hill. Therefore, Zhang Yang couldn’t stand asking about that. Actually, he had been fermenting this question for over 2 weeks. As he couldn’t contact Zhang Tie during the past 2 weeks, he became a bit anxious.
“I’m fine. I’ve not even lost a hair. Don’t worry about me, elder brother!”
“Let’s talk about Xuanyuan Hill later!”
“Additionally, I’ve already exposed my real identity to Bai Suxian and the disciples of Iron-Dragon Sect. They know that Cui Li and Zhang Tie are the same. I don’t need to use the identity of Cui Li anymore!”
Zhang Tie replied 3 messages too.
The first 2 messages were within the expectation of Zhang Yang; however, after reading the 3rd message, Zhang Yang became silent for quite a while before replying Zhang Tie as if he didn’t believe that Zhang Tie could make such a sudden decision.
“You’ve exposed your real identity to all of your disciples?”
“Yes, even Chengze and Chengxu have known about it. None of my disciples have carried any remote-sensing communications device. They are still in Zhongzhou City; but when we return to Youzhou Province, all of them should know that I’m Cui Li!”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, I’m sure!”
“Whether the one who set you up is Han Zhengfang?”
“Yes, I’ve already killed Han Zhengfang! Elder brother, you’re the 2nd people who know this news besides me, don’t expose it to others!”
After hearing that Zhang Tie had killed Han Zhengfang, Zhang Yang, being in Youzhou Province, was shocked once again. Zhang Tie didn’t know that all the news about Han Zhengfang had shocked the entire country over the past days.
Who was Han Zhengfang? The former finance minister of Taixia Country; a super powerhouse who had promoted to a heavenly knight; the master of Heavens Reaching Church who aroused turmoils in Taixia Country; the culprit of the tragedy in Fuhai City; the public enemy of Hua people; the one who could escape from Meng Shidao who had promoted to semi-sage realm and couldn’t be blocked by anyone across Xuanyuan Hill. Unbelievably, he was killed by Zhang Tie.
Only after a few days, the alchemist demon Zhao Yuan had dropped to the second place on the wanted list of Supreme Court of Taixia Country while Han Zhengfang the master of Heavens Reaching Church ranked first. ‘My brother killed the heavenly knight who ranked first on the wanted list of Taixia Country.’
Zhang Yang became muddle-headed; however, he knew that Zhang Tie would not make fun of him.
After a few seconds, Zhang Tie received another message from Zhang Yang.
“Do you know the reward for…Han…Zhengfang’s head by Xuanyuan Hill?”
Zhang Yang must be thrilled at this moment as even his message was not incoherent.
“What’s that?’
“Anyone who could kill or catch Han Zhengfang alive would be conferred with the hereditary title of nobility of human duke and be rewarded with a bounty land along with the guard of honor as same as that of top three chancellors and a promise in cinnabar on iron sheet, with which all the death penalties of him and his family members would be remitted!”
