Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 1756: Sneaking into the Airboat

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Although the heads of Emperor NvWa Palace, the 3 immortal emperor-level imperial palaces and 14 supreme immortal general-level immortal palaces were also called His Majesty, given the direction of this airboat, Zhang Tie realized that they didn’t belong to any of the above organizations.

It was really shocking that an unknown organization could arrange a mole in Yin-Yang Sect and destroy Yin-Yang Sect so easily. When he thought that Zhou Baifei might have joined Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace with the same purpose, Zhang Tie shuddered with fear even though he had seen the world. ‘Perhaps Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was their target at the beginning. However, the return of “Dragon Emperor” disturbed their plan at a stroke. Therefore, Zhou Baifei flurriedly escaped away.’

However, Zhou Baifei was not affected by the bloody pledge that he had made when he joined Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace after escaping away, which meant that these people had already mastered the method to avoid from being affected by the bloody pledge.

What was more attractive to Zhang Tie was the Golden-Soul Rune Virus that the two people had just mentioned in the room. Although Zhang Tie had not heard about it before, according to Grand Justice Qian, Zhang Tie knew this thing was extremely terrifying; because people could control a lot of immortal generals or knights with it.

Zhang Tie would never believe that there was such a terrifying thing in the world in Taixia Country. When in Taixia Country, the most powerful secret method that could be used to control knights that Zhang Tie had known was God’s baptism, the conditions of which were pretty demanding.

Before accepting God’s baptism, the knights should be willing to completely open their bodies including their awareness, chakras even mysterious spiritual areas to the baptists. Such kind of knights could barely be found in that world. As all the knights were heroes who were arrogant and strong-willed and could get as much as wealth and honor as they wanted. Who would like to serve others after becoming knights? Therefore, 99% of knights couldn’t meet the first condition for God’s baptism.

Second, the number of knights that could receive God’s baptism was also in compliance with the level of the baptist. Black iron knights could at most control 2 knights. Even sage-level knights could only control 13 knights.

Third, the performance of God’s baptism would consume a large amount of life vitality of the baptist, which meant a high cost too.

Being limited to the above three conditions, even Zhang Tie, who had mastered the secret method of God’s baptism, had only performed God’s baptism for Ockham. Zhang Tie had not encountered the second demon knight who would like to be loyal to him. There was indeed a demon coward in the jail of Castle of Black Iron; however, Zhang Tie didn’t feel that it could do any help to him at all. To be honest, Zhang Tie felt like wasting time performing God’s baptism for that guy.

However, the Golden-Soul Rune Virus that the two people had just mentioned appeared being completely able to break through the limits of God’s baptism. It seemed that an immortal general or knight who had been affected by Golden-Soul Runed Virus could be easily manipulated by others only after attending to a simple rite called sacred sacrifice.

‘What a terrifying secret method! It’s an ultimate challenge to manipulate knights or immortal generals in the world where I came from or in Motian Realm. It’s the target that numerous ambitionists and schemers are pursuing. Unimaginably, it has been reached by someone in Motian Realm.’

Zhang Tie finally understood why Ji Yuelan sent him a warning; because she had already sensed the terror of Golden-Soul Rune Virus at that moment. Pitifully, before she had sent the whole message, she had lost her freedom.

Lying on the surface of the airboat, Zhang Tie felt pretty cold physically and mentally facing the strong wind. However, he was racking his mind to think about solutions. Zhang Tie didn’t want to save the world. No matter how powerful was ‘His Majesty’, Zhang Tie felt it was not his turn to worry about the destiny of humans in Motian Realm. Even though the heavens were going to fall, they were going to be supported by taller guys. He was just a heavenly knight. It was not necessary for him to do that. He only wanted to save the captives of Yin-Yang Sect including Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin first. After that, he would check out the background of this organization and figure out their plans. If this organization was really plotting a conspiracy or doing harm to the humans, he would work out a solution to expose this organization, “His Majesty” and their Golden-Soul Rune Virus so that the immortal emperors of Emperor NvWa Palace, Star Emperor Immortal Palace and Force Emperor Immortal Palace could deal with them. Those people should be more anxious than Zhang Tie.

After getting things in order and making his decision, Zhang Tie had started to move.

Firstly, Zhang Tie triggered his body-changing immortal bloodline to change his look and frame. As he realized how powerful were his opponents, of course, Zhang Tie didn’t want himself and the members of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palaces to be cannon fodder. Only Zhang Tie knew that the “Dragon Emperor” didn’t exist at all. As the most powerful one in Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, if he exposed himself to the opponents and caused a face-to-face clash between Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace and this mysterious organization, he might become a martyr. It would influence Zhang Tie’s plan. Therefore, Zhang Tie would never expose his real identity to these people. If he changed his look, he would have enough space for manoeuvers.

There was another benefit for changing his look——when he saved Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin, he didn’t need to explain to them in details. Otherwise, if Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin found it was Zhang Tie who saved them, how would he explain it to them? Would he say that he spent a few hours to arrive at Nine Heavens Big Domain from Dragon Emperor Big Domain by triggering his flight ability as a divine dominator after receiving Ji Yuelan’s warning? Would he say that he caught up with them using an animal controlling skill and his lotus-flower eyes and helped them out?

If he told them the truth, he would be an idiot; instead of a hero. If they believed in him, a lot of his trump cards would be exposed. If they didn’t, the captives of Yin-Yang Sect would even doubt that he was the culprit of this catastrophe facing Yin-Yang Sect. They would think that he might have made marks on Ji Yuelan and Jiang Ruoxin so that he could follow them all the way to the base of Yin-Yang Sect and caught them. They would also think that it was he who had bought over a grand elder of Yin-Yang Sect. Otherwise, he could not appear in front of them in such a short period of time “coincidentally”...

Therefore, the best choice was to change his look for the sake of Zhang Tie himself, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace or Yin-Yang Sect.

In the beginning, Zhang Tie wanted to change into a person with an average look. However, not knowing why, he suddenly recalled Heller’s perfect frame, which could dwarf everyone else as each inch of his skin was made according to the golden section rule. Zhang Tie then turned his look and frame into a Hua man similar to that of Heller.

At this moment, although Zhang Tie didn’t look into the mirror, he also knew that his look was extremely handsome which could definitely dwarf all the handsome youths in the history of Hua people.

After doing that, Zhang Tie took a look into the airboat as he found no change inside except that Grand Justice Qian who had a ‘fierce battle” with that woman took a look around the airboat after the woman left his room. After checking the bilges at the bottom of the airboat and finding all the captives of Yin-Yang Sect were still in a coma, Grand Justice Qian left some words to the two guards with an icy look before returning to a cabin and entering cultivation, eyes closed.

Zhang Tie then flashed away and reached below the airboat. Closely after that, he slid to the hatch door of the belly-hold cargo bay near the tail of the airboat.

There was nothing inside the belly-hold cargo bay. Its hatch door couldn’t be opened from outside; instead, it could only be opened from inside by moving the lever manually. However, it was too easy for Zhang Tie. Only by running his spiritual energy, he had slowly moved the level inside the door. As a result, the hatch door gradually opened.

Previously, when the hatch door opened, it would always cause some low sounds and rocks; especially when the airboat was in flight, the external airflow would also change. However, with the control of Zhang Tie’s great power as a divine dominator, all the sounds, rocks and changing airflows were isolated.

After the hatch door opened slightly, Zhang Tie had already sneaked into the belly-hold cargo bay. Closely after that, the hatch door was closed quietly as if it had not been opened at all.

There was nothing but some empty crates inside this pitch-dark space. However, it was a problem for Zhang Tie.

There was nobody neighboring the belly-hold cargo bay either. After opening the other hatch door of it, Zhang Tie came to the aisle.

After closing the hatch door, Zhang Tie soon passed through two aisles. After moving half a flight upstairs, he passed by the powerhouse where three crew members were keeping an eye on before coming to the outside of the bilges where the captives of Yin-Yang Sect were in.

Two immortal generals in black robe were guarding at the entrance of aisle leaving to the bilges, face to face. Zhang Tie murmured inside, ‘Don’t they feel bored?’

Zhang Tie then floated by right in front of them.

When he passed by them, Zhang Tie was only a bit more than 1 m away from them. The two immortal generals in black robe appeared being able to reach Zhang Tie only by extending their hands. However, the guards didn’t notice him at all. Therefore, Zhang Tie could easily pass by them...
