“What, the full-moons gate above have already closed up?” Zhang Tie was shocked inside.
“Yes, besides the full-moons gate where we entered just now, all the other five full-moons gates have closed up. In addition, the entrance leading to the first floor of Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect has disappeared too…”
“Aah, disappeared? But how?” Celestial Deyang almost jumped up flurriedly before Zhang Tie opened his mouth.
In such a short period, the location over 60 miles away had been filled with golden and silver flashes. When they turned around, they saw some more disciples of the three top sects turning into ashes and ice scums in front of the two boas. Celestial Deyang’s eyebrows kept jumping.
“They just disappeared out of the void. Knights had been dispatched to guard the entrance of the first floor of Dongtian and the full-moons gates of the first floor. Just now the two teams of knights both sent me a message that a huge area of metal ground appeared to be softened suddenly as it started to wriggle. In a few seconds, the original entrance had been inaccessible. After a few more seconds, the entrance directly disappeared…”
“Does it mean that none of us could leave here?”
“Unless we could break those portals; otherwise…” Bai Runshan said bitterly.
How could those portals be easily destroyed? Otherwise, they had long entered them. Such portals were never produced in this age. Even sage-level knights could barely break them.
After hearing such an answer, Immortal Deyang didn’t know what to say. He could only look at Zhang Tie along with all the others besides Zhang Tie.
The moment Zhang Tie wanted to speak, he felt a bizarre wave as the All-spirits Tower in his mind sea rocked. Closely after that, Zhang Tie looked up at the six stamens in the middle of the huge lotus flower which were six tunnels from where they came in. Right then, he found the open lotus flower gradually closing up with flashing light and looming runes, covering the six tunnels at once.
Many knights had noticed such a change. If the news that above tunnels had closed up was only known to very few people, the disappearance of the six tunnels downside there aroused a panic that instantly spread across the entire space of the second floor of the Dongtian.
“Aah, why did these entrances suddenly close up…”
“Can’t we leave out of here?”
“No, I want to leave out of here…”
Some knights close to the dome of this space noticed the chance at once as they instantly rushed over there before launching colorful battle qi strikes onto that huge lotus flower. However, what they had done was like how ants tried to shake a giant tree.
At this moment, more knights realized that the gates of the two towers of time downside there couldn’t even be opened. Besides Celestial Swords, Celestial Clouddragon also flew over there to fight two boas.
As heavenly knights, Celestial Swords and Celestial Clouddragon could both strike enemies over 10,000 m away. The two weird boas couldn’t make this point; however, their defensive capability was amazing. Even though Celestial Swords and Celestial Clouddragon both used their silver secret weapons, they couldn’t hurt the two boas at all; instead, the strikes of the two heavenly knights irritated them, causing the two boas to speed up towards them.
In a split second, the entire space was filled with the battle qi light of heavenly knights and the flames and storms of golden and silver boas, which scared the rest of people.
To be honest, Zhang Tie felt a family of mice drilling into the same cage at the same time. Over 10,000 knights were trapped in this cage.
At this moment, everyone’s heart pounded out of fear; except Zhang Tie who remained calm both inside and outside.
Such an accident was within Zhang Tie’s imagination. Because he had already felt something wrong here before he came down. If everything went normal, Zhang Tie would doubt his feeling and intelligence.
Zhang Tie tried Castle of Black Iron at this moment as he found that he could still access to it freely. Therefore, he became much reassured and was not afraid even a bit of the two weird boas, nor the Dongtian which was full of crises; instead, he felt somewhat intimate and safe, which was resonance to the Great Wilderness Sutra that he cultivated.
Zhang Tie’s calmness affected many people in the surroundings, which couldn’t be disguised at all; instead, it was a message released by Zhang Tie’s qi field. Watching Zhang Tie’s calm look, Bai Suxian, Immortal Deyang, Bai Runshan and that barbarian shadow knight who was flurried just now became much more reassured. Additionally, they had great confidence in Zhang Tie as they all felt that they would be safe as long as they were with Zhang Tie.
The battle in the distance would not affect them for a short period. Neither did Zhang Tie move without a destination. No matter what, he couldn’t get out of here for the time being. Therefore, he preferred to think about the solution. After being silent for a few seconds, Zhang Tie asked Bai Runshan, “Besides the sudden closure of the six full-moons gates and the disappearance of the entrance to this Dongtian, is there any other abnormal phenomenon?”
“Ohh, there’s one more. With the closure of the full-moons gates, those patterns of stars gradually faded away too…”
‘The patterns on the full-moons gates disappeared? Does it mean that those patterns were not on the gates at the beginning? No wonder I found something wrong with those patterns.’ Zhang Tie realized it at once…
“Ahh, puppet fighters…”
All of a sudden, louder shrieks filled the space while all the reliefs on the metal walls opened their eyes as they became alive and started to attack people here.
Like what Zhang Tie had predicted, those metal sculptures were really puppet fighters.
At this moment, watching the disappearing tunnels, the rampant weird boas and those live puppet fighters, the other knights had long been in turmoil…
Celestial Woodbuilding flew over here flurriedly followed by a team of knights of Jiang Clan as he shouted at Zhang Tie loudly, “It’s a trap. Only disciples of Great Wilderness Sect could access to the towers of time downside there. We couldn’t have any chance to escape away unless cooperation…”
