Castle of Black Iron

Watching the full-moons gates of the first floor of Dongtian closing themselves while all the patterns on the gates gradually faded away like words on paper being erased, all the knights guarding the gates widely opened their eyes.

However, something more terrible had not happened yet.

"Ahh, look..." a knight of Heavens Holding Pavilion suddenly shrieked as he pointed at the entrance of the first floor of Dongtian.

The other knights nearby raised their heads as they saw that the entrance to the first floor of Dongtian gradually shrunk like shrinking intestinal tracts of an animal. The entire metal dome appeared to have become alive as the hard metal started to change its shape like a huge piece of jelly. When the dome stopped wriggling, the entrance leading to the first floor of Dongtian had disappeared as if it had never existed before.

"Ahh, what happened?" some knights didn't believe their eyes as they tried to strike the metal dome by their battle qis fiercely in vain.

All the knights in the first floor of Dongtian turned pale at this moment...

Nobody could enter this space anymore; nor could over 10,000 human knights of Taixia Country exit this space; instead, they were all isolated in the second floor of the Dongtian.

Why?

...

Those knights who were pouring in the second floor of Dongtian didn't know that the full-moons gates and the portals accessible to the Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect behind them had already closed and disappeared as they were all rushing downwards for the possible benefits.

"Those in front of me will die..." Celestial Reflectingmoons of Qionglou Pavilion revealed a grim look like a real old witch as she roared and launched a battle qi strike towards the heavenly knight who was not backed by a major sect yet was scrambling for the totem of snakes. Only with one strike, she had already driven away some shadow knights who were also rushing towards the totem.

Those shadow knights were all frightened by the terrifying deputy head of Qionglou Pavilion as they hurriedly dodged away; instead of confronting with her battle qi strike.

The other knights of Demons-kill Valley were hauled by the knights of Qionglou Pavilion and Taiyi Fantasy Sect while knights of Heavens Holding Pavilion coordinated with Celestial Reflectingmoons to scramble for the treasure. All the other knights and forces were dwarfed by the combined strength of the major sects of Taixia Country. Only after a short and fierce moment, the brilliant treasure of Great Wilderness Sect in the air had been seized by the old witch of Qionglou Pavilion.

"Quack, quack, quack, quack..." Celestial Reflectingmoons cackled in an extremely pleasant way as she held the totem of a golden snake and a silver snake.

After seeing the treasure falling in the hand of Celestial Reflectingmoons, Celestial Swords burst into laughter as he relieved his sword qi strike and extended the distance between him and Zhang Tie. At the same time, he watched Zhang Tie with doubtful sparkling eyes, "I've not imagined that the world-renowned Immortal Qianji couldn't even use your battle qi now; even your ability as a divine dominator appears to have been severely declined; you even need other's spiritual energy. What a surprise!"

Due to his wound, although he could cheat others verbally, as long as he joined a fight; especially with a heavenly knight, it was almost impossible for him to cheat such an experienced and cunning person. During the short period of close combat, Celestial Swords instantly discovered the problem facing Zhang Tie——Zhang Tie couldn't use his protective battle qi; nor could he launch battle qi strikes. Even his ability as a divine dominator was only limited to rapid movement, which required Bai Suxian's help. If Celestial Swords still couldn't figure out Zhang Tie's problem in this case, he could go die; instead of being the deputy head of Taiyi Fantasy Sect.

Zhang Tie remained silent as he just smiled and watched Celestial Reflectingmoons who was cackling with that "treasure", letting out a sigh. The combined strength of the other major sects was really overwhelming on the premise that he had not fully recovered. The cooperation of the three heavenly knights could almost determine the final result of this scramble.

At the same time, he saw Immortal Deyang rushing towards him while Bai Runshan was catching up with a shadow knight and saying something. Celestial Treasureflame and Celestial Clouddragon had also separated as they rushed down towards the towers of time together.

Right in front of the two towers of time, Celestial Woodbuilding was still striking the entrance of one tower of time fiercely by battle qi. Although he had gained the initiative, he was still outside the gate till now.

More and more knights were pouring into this space. A large number of black iron knights had already shot inside, who then instantly started their treasure exploration in a pretty fanatic manner.

Immortal Deyang and Bai Runshan almost arrived at Zhang Tie's side at the same time. Celestial Swords' words shocked everyone in the space within 600 miles, including Immortal Deyang.

"Are you all right?" Immortal Deyang flew towards Zhang Tie with a concerned look.

"I'm fine. Don't worry about me!" Zhang Tie replied with a smile as he knew what Celestial Reflectingmoons would like to know, "Let's talk about it when we get out of here..."

"Hmm!"

Just now, Celestial Swords must have bad intention by spreading loudly Zhang Tie's current situation. However, it was not the right moment for Zhang Tie to argue with him on this point.

"Hahaha, like what Celestial Qianji has said, only people with great mores could occupy the treasures across the world. This treasure of Great Wilderness Sect has already got its owner. The two towers of time downside there might also not belong to you. Immortal Qianji, if you try your best to search, you might get something else here before the arrival of all of the other knights..." Celestial Swords teased Zhang Tie as he cackled on one side.

The moment Bai Suxian wanted to refute him, she was stopped by Zhang Tie by raising his arm. At this moment, Zhang Tie was fixing his eyes on Celestial Reflectingmoons and that "treasure of Great Wilderness Sect" in her hand as he had a complex feeling inside.

Just now, when Zhang Tie used his bolt-in-palm to hit and deflect the "treasure of Great Wilderness Sect" with the ability of divine dominator. In fact, when the bolt-in-palm almost touched the 'treasure", Zhang Tie felt it hitting onto an extremely powerful protective battle qi. Before his bolt-in-palm touched that item, that item had already flown away alongside the direction of the strength of his bolt-in-palm.

'How could an object have the powerful protective ability like protective battle qi?'

Zhang Tie was shocked.

...

Celestial Reflectingmoons guffawed as she held high the brilliant totem of a golden snake and a silver snake. Watching the surrounding knights who were looking at her with admiring and jealous eyes, she said in an extremely unscrupulous and cold tone, "Come over here if you want. This grandma has not seen the blood today. I'm waiting for it..."

Nobody dared move in the surroundings.

After looking around, Celestial Reflectingmoons became satisfied.

Right then, Celestial Reflectingmoons received a message delivered by watchdogs of Qionglou Pavilion outside the gate of the first floor——The full-moons gates have already closed themselves; even the entrance leading to the first-floor of Dongtian on the dome had disappeared.

'Rubbish!'

After being slightly stunned, Celestial Reflectingmoons swore inside. When she entered the first floor of Dongtian, she had checked the entrance on the dome, which was composed of special metal. Even sage-level knights couldn't destroy it. How could it disappear? Does it mean that the watchdogs have been killed?

In case of trouble, after throwing a glance at that brilliant treasure in her hand, Celestial Reflectingmoons was going to teleport it into her portable space-teleportation equipment; however, when she ran her spiritual energy, she found that that treasure remained still. Right then, she felt a sharp pain on her palm...

The golden snake had already become alive as its mouth had already left the tail of the silver snake and was biting her right hand. Besides sharp pain, Celestial Reflectingmoons watched her right arm gradually burning into ashes from her palm to her wrist, all the way to her elbow and shoulder like burning mosquito-repellant incense...

It was a sharp pain both physically and psychologically. Even a heavenly knight would suffer a great wallop when she saw her arm burning into ashes in the air.

"Aah..." Celestial Reflectingmoons' eyes almost popped out of her eyesockets as her shrieks shocked the entire space.

All the surrounding people were stunned, more were transfixed.

When she opened her mouth, the silver snake instantly lurked into her mouth in terms of silver light, freezing Celestial Reflectingmoons as a whole at once.

A few seconds later, Celestial Reflectingmoons immediately turned into ashes as a whole as it spread over the sky. Like having just woken up, the golden snake and the silver snake gradually recovered their original looks. As they started to wriggle in the air, they grow increasingly larger...
