Castle of Black Iron

Zhang Tie didn’t know what happened in Blackwater Base. Zhang Tie had just entered Castle of Black Iron and prepared to stay for a period over there so as to completely digest his achievements.

Almost the moment Zhang Tie entered Castle of Black Iron, he had seen a smile as Heller said, “Castle Lord, congratulations on your new achievements…”

With a sound of “Huala…”, Zhang Tie quivered all over for once as the Chaos left his body and returned to the armor stand in the lobby. After looking at so many pits and broken parts on Chaos, Zhang Tie shook his head. He didn’t lose his mind due to triumph; instead, he looked a bit solemn, “It was a bit dangerous this time; let Edward mend the Chaos…”

When he defeated Ockham and absorbed Ockham’s water chakra, Zhang Tie promoted to 5 change earth realm and gained an overall increase in his strength. He thought that he would not be afraid of shadow knights. However, he had not imagined that he almost suffered a great loss from Gao Tianzhao. If not the manifestation of his emperor-level cultivation method at the critical moment, Zhang Tie really dared not imagine about the outcome of this battle.

Although he was to be congratulated for defeating Gao Tianzhao and making a great achievement; after the battle, Zhang Tie was deeply impressed by Gao Tianzhao’s ability in the stomach of Heavens-eaten Boa which was close to the realm and the terrifying power of his emperor-level secret method.

After this combat, Zhang Tie knew that the difference in levels would always be insurmountable in many cases. ‘Shadow knights, heavenly knights, sage-level knights, all these people have greater power than me. Although I have a lot of trump cards and a great power, it’s not the right moment for me to be pleased. I still have a long way to go. More and more powerful opponents would appear.’

‘If I want to be more powerful and defeat enemies and opponents unconditionally, I have to improve my level and overall strength. The ability of divine dominator is limited; however, the power of higher level is most effective. If I’ve long promoted to a shadow knight before this combat, I could even defeat Gao Tianzhao without exposing the trump card that I’m a divine dominator.’

When he thought about the manifestation of King Roc Sutra in the stomach of Heavens-eaten Boa, Zhang Tie couldn’t help but raise his palm and look at it. Not until now did Zhang Tie feel that what happened just now was as unbelievable as a dream. All of a sudden, he had grasped the secret skill “break” in King Roc Sutra , which was especially used to curb the real bodies of virtual images of dragons, snakes and all the mutated beasts in the sky, in the underground space and in the abyss realm which had the bloodlines of dragons and snakes. This secret skill was the manifestation of the dignity and killing intent of king roc. With the imposing power of the secret skill “break”, all the real bodies of virtual images of dragons and snakes, all the species which shared the bloodlines with dragons and snakes would be easily destroyed whether they were special species in the wild or mutated beasts no matter how high level was the cultivation method practiced by that knight.

Zhang Tie was really shocked by the power of the secret skill “break” of the emperor-level cultivation method. Not until then did Zhang Tie realize how unrivaled was a complete emperor-level cultivation method. ‘If I had the complete version of King Roc Sutra , I should have long grasped the secret skill “break” instead of gaining such an insight in the extreme environment in the stomach of the Heavens-eaten Boa responding to the qi of King Roc Sutra .’

Of course Zhang Tie was happy that he could grasp the secret skill “break”; however, when he realized that King Roc Sutra must contain more than one secret skill “break”, Zhang Tie felt faintly regretful and disappointed. It was completely fortunate for him to grasp this secret skill “break”; however, what about the next time?

Now that an emperor-level cultivation method could have such a terrifying power, how powerful would be Emperor Xuanyuan who had grasped the complete emperor-level sutra Xuanyuan God Sutra and had long promoted to sage-level knight? Even so, demons were still invading Taixia Country and Emperor Xuanyuan was missing. Did it mean that some powers were greater than sage-level knights who cultivated emperor-level secret method? It seemed that even sage-level knights who cultivated emperor-level secret method could not be free-will and almighty; otherwise, demons should have long disappeared in the world; neither could Han Zhengfang hide his real identity for so many years.

‘All the powers have their limits. In another word, the powers that humans could control have their maximal limit. Even Emperor Xuanyuan couldn’t eliminate demons, not to mention me.’

Zhang Tie watched his palm as a lot of thoughts flashed in his mind. He gradually thought through something and became relaxed.

Only when a person looked at the stars in the sky while standing high could he find that he was trivial.

Sometimes, if a person could admit that he was trivial and weak and desert his arrogance and illusion, he might live in a more comfortable and freer way.

Because of being trivial, humans would pursue immortality and greatness; because of being trivial, it would be meaningful for humans to struggle and fight.

Zhang Tie let out a long sigh as if he had cast off a heavy burden.

Zhang Tie was clear what a great stress he was sustaining inside in the last few days.

When Zhang Tie was in meditation, Heller just stood aside quietly as he kept watching Zhang Tie’s face with profound and wise eyes.

“It’s demons who are making disasters and massacres in the western provinces of Taixia Country; instead of Castle Lord. Even if Castle Lord didn’t participate in it, it would happen too. All this doesn’t exist because of you. Even though Castle Lord has Castle of Black Iron, you still couldn’t change anything; additionally, Castle Lord has exerted your utmost efforts to do what you could. Because of Castle Lord, many people have survived in Taixia Country; additionally, Taixia Country and humans could have greater abilities to fight demons. Cheer up, Castle Lord. Sometimes, if you bear too much stress and a sense of responsibility due to excessive kindness, it might not be good! Demons would not kill fewer people or make less trouble because of you…”

After hearing Heller’s words, Zhang Tie realized that Heller knew what he thought and what great stress and remorse he was sustaining these days…
