Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 1941: Loss And Gain

Translator: WQL  Editor: Aleem

On the battlefield, Zhang Tie really felt like a dragon getting stranded or a tiger leaving its hill and descending to the plains at this moment.

No matter how powerful he was, Zhang Tie could only stay in the deserted inn for the time being and ponder about his next plan.

If he could enter Castle of Black Iron now, everything would become simple. No matter what, as long as he could stay in Castle of Black Iron for three years, after the “frail” period caused by the use of the secret skill “arrival” of Infinite King Roc Sutra , he would recover his battle force. By then, nobody in this world could defeat him, neither humans nor demons. He could even end the holy war in a short period of time.

However, he couldn’t access to Castle of Black Iron now; neither had he recovered his battle force. Therefore, all the problems became complex.

The key was to live on. As a man, he should be able to take temporary setbacks. As long as he passed this “frail” period of three years successfully, nothing else was serious.

Although the projection of demon overlord in the chaotic space failed to prevent him from coming back and couldn’t position the egg of King Roc that Zhang Tie had created in the secret skill “arrival” of Infinite King Roc Sutra , the demon overlord probably knew the sequel of this secret skill of Infinite King Roc Sutra and Zhang Tie’s current condition. Although the demon overlord couldn’t descend to this world, as an undying creature, it could definitely pass its own awareness to the top figures among demons. Those top figures among demons might have already known that Zhang Tie was back. They might be looking for Zhang Tie everywhere and determined to kill Zhang Tie at any price.

Taiyi Fantasy Sect, Heavens Holding Pavilion and Qionglou Pavilion never wanted to see Zhang Tie coming back alive, either.

Therefore, Zhang Tie shouldn’t expose his own identity for the time being…

At this moment, the situation facing Taixia Country was very bad. In the following three years, Zhang Tie didn’t know how many Hua fighters would die on the battlefields and whether the situation facing Xuanyuan Hill could maintain steady or not.

When they knew that Zhang Tie was already back, would demons attack Jinwu Palace in order to force Zhang Tie to show up?

Zhang Tie became anxious more or less…

Although he could only come back in this way, when he was back, he gradually realized the importance of the battle force.

…

In a room on the second floor of the deserted inn, Zhang Tie considered his current situation while cultivating and recovering his own battle force.

Just now, Zhang Tie was surprised by his current “frail” state. However, unexpectedly, when he recovered his composure, he found that his battle force was recovering at an amazing speed. In less than half an hour, after he changed his clothes and took a short rest, his spiritual energy in mind sea and battle qi in qi sea had been “refilled”.

Although the “refilled” state was relative, Zhang Tie was also shocked by it. Previously, Zhang Tie thought that it would take him a few hours to reach this state, even the next morning; however, he had not imagined that he could recover so fast. Such a recovering speed was even 10 times greater than that Zhang Tie had predicted.

‘Incredible!’

Zhang Tie hurriedly looked inside.

Closely after that, he became dumbfounded…

He didn’t have any problem but the Infinite Immortal Prison in his shrine surging point…

At this moment, Zhang Tie found that the Infinite Immortal Prison in his shrine surging point was giving out bright light. The entrance at the first floor of Infinite Immortal Prison was widely opened as colorful energy was pouring out of the entrance like flood.

After flowing out of Infinite Immortal Prison, the colorful energy instantly split into two halves; one was rushing into his mind sea like a reversal brilliant Milky Way from bottom to top and converting into the purest spiritual energy in his mind sea; the other was flowing into his qi sea; meanwhile, battle qi was surging out of the colorful energy at a speed greater than ever before.

Zhang Tie became dumbfounded. He didn’t know why Infinite Immortal Prison could have such a great change; however, he felt familiar with the colorful energy that was flowing out of Infinite Immortal Prison…

‘Wait…’ Zhang Tie suddenly recalled something…

It was the first time for the projection of the demon overlord to destroy the space tunnel connecting Motian Realm with this world. At that time, the virtual image of King Roc was looking for the entrance for returning to Taixia Country among endless chaos and space mezzanines. Zhang Tie remembered that it was over 10 years ago. When the projection of demon overlord appeared in the chaos and space mezzanines for the second time, Zhang Tie entered a bizarre space crack by mistake while avoiding from the chase of the projection of demon overlord. When he entered the endless black fog and the large, bizarre space behind that space crack, he saw a vast, brilliant ocean.

At that time, he knew nothing about the place hiding in the chaos and the mezzanine; because it was just like a huge bubble in the chaos and the mezzanine. Zhang Tie didn’t know what was in the colorful ocean. When he dove into it, the virtual image of King Roc was almost suffocated and shattered into pieces by the brilliant ocean. When he bore it hardly, his Infinite Immortal Prison suddenly flew out of his shrine surging point and hovered above the brilliant ocean. Closely after that, it turned into a mountain-like huge tower as high as 600 miles and opened the entrance on the first floor before absorbing all the brilliant energy like how a magical dragon absorbed water. As a result, Zhang Tie was saved.

After the Infinite Immortal Prison dried up the brilliant ocean, it returned to Zhang Tie’s shrine surging point. That huge bubble suddenly broke up. Closely after that, the virtual image of King Roc was carried to somewhere else unknown by the space storm aroused by the broken bubble.

This event had happened for so long. Additionally, after Infinite Immortal Prison dried up the brilliant ocean, it didn’t have any special response; neither did Zhang Tie have any special response. Therefore, he didn’t pay attention to this event anymore. He thought that thing in the brilliant ocean was just something common in the chaos and the mezzanines which he didn’t know and could be absorbed by Infinite Immortal Prison. Therefore, Zhang Tie had completely forgotten about it.

After Zhang Tie came back, the empty state facing his mind sea and qi sea coincidentally satisfied one condition. As a result, Infinite Immortal Prison poured out of the brilliant energy.

When he saw Infinite Immortal Prison pouring out that rainbow-like colorful energy, Zhang Tie finally realized that he was wrong. That brilliant ocean was never commonly seen in chaos and space mezzanines.

At this moment, the wisp of energy that entered his mind sea became his spiritual energy; the wisp of energy that entered his qi sea became his battle qi.

Zhang Tie had never imagined that something in this world could turn into spiritual energy and battle qi at the same time. It was out of Zhang Tie’s cognitive scope.

When he remembered the vast ocean being absorbed by Infinite Immortal Prison, Zhang Tie almost blacked out. Compared to that vast ocean, the capacity of his mind sea and qi sea was just like that of a small pool, although he was a sage-level knight.

‘What is this energy!?’

When Zhang Tie became greatly shocked, something even more shocking happened. After his mind sea and qi sea was filled by his spiritual energy and battle qi respectively, the energy which was more brilliant than the rainbow was still flowing out of the Infinite Immortal Prison and inputting the two energies into his qi sea and mind sea. As a result, his mind sea and qi sea felt like being blown up by a strong force. It was like a balloon being connected to a steamingly high-pressure pump…

However, Zhang Tie’s qi sea and mind sea couldn’t be blown up because of his Magical King Kong Body of Manjusaka Narayana Fearless King Roc.

Zhang Tie gradually found that the fresh spiritual energy and battle qi were being condensed constantly by the powerful rainbow-like energy. After that, the spiritual energy in his mind sea and the battle qi in his qi sea both became the same colorful energy…
