Castle of Black Iron - Chapter 1637: Entering the Ring
Starting from the early morning of January 29, the air around Yinhai had been warm. All the airboats and knights who were wandering above Yinhai had left the core fly zone above Yinhai before sunrise. Besides, the fly zone near the edge of Yinhai was clear.
Everyone was longing for the response from Iron-Dragon Sect and the three top sects, causing the air above Yinhai restless in silence.
A combat between a divine dominator and a sage-level knight had never happened aboveboard before. Therefore, even heavenly knights and sage-level knights were paying special heed to this combat, not to mention ordinary knights.
Undoubtedly, sage-level knights were powerful; however, people were also looking forward to another miracle displayed by Immortal Qianji, who as a divine dominator could kill a heavenly knight by striking him by rod for nine times in this combat.
Soon after the sun rose from the east, Zhang Tie in black combat outfit had flown off the airboat of Iron-Dragon Sect under the gaze of the public. At the same time, he accelerated to over 10 times that of the speed of sound in a split second towards the center of Yinhai with air-breaking rumbles.
"Here comes Immortal Qianji; here comes Immortal Qianji..."
Those knights around Yinhai were immediately in an uproar. Almost everyone who paid close attention to the airboat of Iron-Dragon Sect had known that it was Zhang Tie who had flown off given Zhang Tie's pretty young look and his flight capability as a divine dominator. Even if someone could disguise himself as Zhang Tie, he wouldn't be able to disguise Zhang Tie's flight capability. Nobody else could reach such a high flight speed in the stage of shadow knight except Lord Fairysea.
Additionally, the one who flew off the airboat of Iron-Dragon Sect carried a strong personality. Watching him fly towards the center of Yinhai, all the onlooking knights held their breaths as if they saw an invisible and brilliant light on the black robe. With a such strong qi field, it told everyone at present that it was the world-renowned Immortal Qianji.
In the air, Zhang Tie stayed calm. He didn't feel intense or restless at all. Since in Blackhot City, after experiencing so many battles, Zhang Tie had completely forgotten about tension and anxiety in any battle, even if it was a life-or-death one. Like those veterans who could survive hundreds of battles in ground corps, Zhang Tie had been used to all the battles and forgotten about life-or-death situations.
As a knight and a veteran, after so many real life-or-death situations and experience in trouble-reappearance situations, Zhang Tie had become unrivaled in mentality and spirit.
He took a bath, had a grand breakfast with his wives and three sons and have a short chat with the other elders of Iron-Dragon Sect. After that, he wore a set of simple black outfit before leaving the airboat.
In the sky, Zhang Tie even enjoyed the scenery on the ground.
The color of sands in Yinhai was a bit lighter compared to the surroundings. It might be because Yinhai was the inland lake of Gobi Desert. Even after nearly 1,000 years, a few heavily withered aquatic organisms such as shells and snails and evidently eroded rocks could still be seen among those sands.
From the sky, the entire Yinhai was like a gourd-shaped basin, connected with two round shapes, one big, one small. Of course, this basin was large enough to be a battlefield between Zhang Tie and a sage-level knight. They didn't need to worry about that the combat would destroy the terrain or do harm to innocent people.
The air carried a hot qi. The wind above ground made dust and sands cover the sky. However, at such a high altitude, Zhang Tie couldn't sense the dust and sands in the air at all unless a sandstorm.
When Zhang Tie flew off his airboat, three figures flew off three airboats of Taiyi Fantasy Sect, Heavens Holding Pavilion and Qionglou Pavilion at the same time. They all flew towards the center of Yinhai, namely the intersection between the two round regions of the gourd-shaped basin at almost the same speed, which was about 200 miles away from the edge of Yinhai in all directions.
Under the gaze of the public, the four people soon arrived at the center of Yinhai and stopped there with a distance of about 10,000 m.
"You're Qianji Immortal Zhang Tie?" Taiyi Old Man asked as he took a look at Zhang Tie. His rumbles reflected from the dome of the heavens and spread over. As a result, all the people nearby Yinhai could hear it from hundreds of miles away.
What powerful sage-level knights! Even as a shadow knight, Zhang Tie still admired the universal sound transmission skill very much. Although Zhang Tie couldn't do it as casually as those sage-level knights, he could still make it by his super powerful battle qi manipulative ability and spiritual energy as a divine dominator. Although it sounded a bit rustic, it worked. When the opponent opened his mouth, Zhang Tie had already formed some dozens of meters long trumpets of air using his spiritual energy around him. After that, he exerted the largest stress on his voice by his battle qi and adjusted the "power" to the utmost. Then, he transmitted his voice into the invisible trumpets to disseminate it.
At this moment, he could not lose face on behalf of Iron-Dragon Sect and Jinwu Palace.
"Ture, I'm Zhang Tie. Who are you?"
As Zhang Tie opened his mouth, the three sage-level knights felt an impact wave of sound charging at their face at the same time from 10,000 m away. The air in the surroundings even rocked. At the same time, Zhang Tie's voice spread far away as fast as a lightning bolt with a loud resonance, which was as powerful as that of the sage-level knight. As a result, the three sage-level knights' hearts pounded at the same time and those onlooking knights were in exclamations.
