'8 wing demons and a human knight flew into the mountain cave?'
After hearing this news, Zhang Tie became dubious. 'It's not strange for wing demons or human knights to be in this mountain cave; what's strange is that the two parties are together.'
'Is that human knight the earth knight that we've lost contact with?' 'Or another human knight?' 'That's a problem.' 'What's more, why is that human knight with wing demons?'
Because bats had limited intelligence, even though Zhang Tie was a top animal controller, he couldn't get more detailed information from bats; neither could he know the look of that human knight. Zhang Tie only knew that the human knight almost flew into the mountain cave at the same time as the 8 wing demons. Zhang Tie didn't know the battle strength of the 8 wing demons. However, Zhang Tie knew that the human knight who could fly must be at least a black iron knight.
When the 8 wing demons and the human knight entered the mountain cave, given the environment in the mountain cave, Zhang Tie found that they didn't fight each other at all. None of the bats in the mountain cave was involved. Given all the signs, Zhang Tie concluded that the human knight might be on the same side as those bats.
In Taixia Country, only the remnants of Heavens Reaching Church could be on the same side as demons …
A cold smile appeared on Zhang Tie's face. These past few days, he had been looking forward to the stars and the moon, wishing that he could get rid of a few more bastards so that he could use them as firewood for the Blood Sacrifice Furnace. He had never thought that these bastards would really come.
After applying a hiding rune effect to himself, he arranged some tracing feathers near the entrance of the cave as a precaution. After that, he flew towards the entrance of the cave as fast as an illusionary light and shadow.
As the saying went, those with great abilities were always bold. As Zhang Tie grew more and more powerful, he would not be afraid even if there were 9 earth knights in the mountain cave.
It was very dark in the mountain cave. After flying in for a few miles, Zhang Tie had started to see bizarre small insects in the mountain cave. Those insects were like the combination of fireflies and spiders. Besides giving out light like fireflies in flight, they could also spit out filaments on the rock walls and stalactites at the top of the mountain cave, forming a net of luminous noodles and hanging over the top of the mountain cave, making this mountain cave a bit psychedelic …
These glowing insects were the favorite prey of the bats in the cave. However, the filaments they spat out were not only glowing, but also very sticky. They would stick to the wings of the bats, which made the bats extremely afraid of them. Under the cover of those filaments, the glowing insects and the bats maintained a delicate balance in the cave.
The feces that were accumulated by bats year after year in the mountain cave provided some weaker insects with living resources. Those weaker insects became the food of other living beings in the mountain cave, such as salamanders, centipedes, snakes and dark rats. The entire mountain cave had an interdependent micro ecosystem.
There were not too many forks and gaps in this mountain cave. Some forks and gaps were too narrow for people to pass through or the ends of those forks and gaps were dead ends. Therefore, there was basically only one road in the mountain cave. In the mountain cave, Zhang Tie even found some corpses of Hua fighters who had been gnawed as their guts and brains had been eaten. Therefore, Zhang Tie confirmed the location of his target as his killing intent grew stronger …
After zigzagging in the mountain cave for over 60 miles, Zhang Tie came to a critical place in the mountain cave. Closely after that, he stopped …
In the mountain cave, Zhang Tie faintly frowned as he watched this place.
When Zhang Tie arrived here, he found that the mountain cave had deepened into the underground space. The space in the mountain cave grew increasingly wider while some special underground fungi appeared in the mountain cave. However, this place looked very dangerous. Because the spacious space in the mountain cave suddenly shrank and became narrow and low, leaving a 3 m high and 2 m wide tunnel-like hole, which directly extended to the depth of the underground space like a winding trail.
The rocks outside the small tunnel were all hard granitoids. The small tunnel was covered with hundreds of millions of tons of underground rock stratum which was many kilometers thick. The small tunnel zigzagged and extended for many miles. To put it bluntly, this place was like an enlarged rat hole. As long as one entered it, even a knight would have no way out unless he could break out of this narrow tunnel.
At the sight of this, Zhang Tie's heart suddenly pounded as he felt that this long tunnel was full of killing intent.
After coming to this place, Zhang Tie didn't enter it rashly; instead, he took a serious look outside. With his lotus-flower eyes, Zhang Tie could see the entire mountain cave; especially the rocks around the winding small hole gradually turning transparent. As a result, the entire small hole gradually became clear in Zhang Tie's eyes.
In this case, even though Zhang Tie had lotus flower eyes, its penetrating ability was limited. Zhang Tie's lotus flower eyes could only penetrate about 10,000 m into such a thick granitoid rock stratum which was mixed with some quartz and metal components. After exceeding 10,000 m, the color temperature of the rock stratum would form a thick color temperature barrier which could cover the things behind.
Zhang Tie was still eating fiery lotus seeds. As he ate more fiery lotus seeds, his penetrating ability of lotus flower eyes was constantly improving. In this case, Zhang Tie's limit was 10,000 m.
The small tunnel extended over 10,000 m. Therefore, Zhang Tie couldn't see what was on the other end of the tunnel. However, at least within 10,000 m, everything was normal in the small tunnel.
After thinking for a short while, Zhang Tie slowed down and flew into the small tunnel. At the same time, he fully activated his lotus flower eyes, which could penetrate through 10,000 m's rock stratum as a warning to himself.
After flying about 13,000 m in the small tunnel, Zhang Tie stopped once again as he had already seen the scene outside the small tunnel.
After extending over 9,000 meters in a straight line, the zigzagging tunnel came to a huge, bubble-shaped underground space. If this zigzagging tunnel was an intestine, then this underground space was like a stomach. At the other end of this underground space, there was a slightly bigger tunnel leading to the distance …
Besides the overall look of the underground space, Zhang Tie could also see everything in that space clearly through the thick granite-like rock stratum.
A human knight was lurking above the tunnel leading to the underground space. His qi was almost invisible. If not Zhang Tie's lotus flower eyes, he could barely discover that 6 wing demon knights were lurking at the entrance of the other tunnel. Additionally, 2 wing demon knights were flying in that space as if they were looking for something. They even looked at the entrance of the narrow tunnel from time to time …
All the 8 wing demons were knights, 5 of which were black iron knights with two wings and 3 of which were earth knights who had started to grow out their second pair of wings. Although that human knight was lurking in a low position, Zhang Tie could still identify his look clearly with his lotus-flower eyes. That human knight looked gloomy with snow-white hair. Given his old look, he looked gloomy. What was most impressive was a black mole with fierce qi between his eyebrows …
Zhang Tie's heart raced at once — — Gao Tianzhao, the old ancestor of Gao Clan of Ancient Taste Palace in Liangzhou Province, the head of Heavens Reaching Church who was wanted by the Supreme Court of Taixia Country and the relative of Han Zhengfang.
If not having seen the wanted portrait issued by the Supreme Court of Taixia Country and being deeply impressed by the murderous mole between Gao Tianzhao's eyebrows, Zhang Tie could not identify Gao Tianzhao at once.
Although being hidden, that person was still gazing at the exit of the narrow tunnel with narrowed eyes.
Even though he had not entered there, Zhang Tie could still sense the killing intent from that underground space.
Gao Tianzhao and those demon knights were ambushing inside and waiting for someone to break in.
'It's a trap!'
In such a battle formation, even if a common shadow knight broke in, facing the premeditated ambush of 1 shadow knight and 8 demon knights, he might still be killed.
'Who's this trap targeting at?'
After thinking about it for a short while, Zhang Tie had got the answer at once — — Whoever is most likely to break in would be targeted by this trap.
After the earth knights and those field scouts and observation whistles in this region disappeared, the one who was most likely to be dispatched here to know the situation was Zhang Tie who was closest to this region and had a "good" battle strength!
'It's a trap targeting at me …'
'It's not strange that Heavens Reaching Church and demons could dispatch me here to fall into this trap. However, how could they confirm that I could find this place?'
Unless they had already guessed that he had the ability of a beast tamer and could use the animals in the Helan Mountain Range to help him locate the cave they were hiding in. If that was the case, it would be easy to explain. If he really entered the cave to search, then the corpses he saw in the cave were deliberately left behind by them. Those corpses could lead him here step by step.
'However, aren't they afraid that I would be scared away by 9 people?' If they targeted at Zhang Tie, it would be a huge loophole. Even though an earth knight knew animal controlling skill, how could he casually break into the trap which was ambushed by 9 knights of the opposite party? What's wrong with him? Could it be that this trap wasn't aimed at Sin, but at someone else? But in this place, apart from me, who else would come?
Zhang Tie's eyes flickered as he racked his brains rapidly. All of a sudden, he patted his head as he figured it out.
'They've guessed that I'm an animal controller; however, they've never imagined that I'm cultivating Great Wilderness Sutra. The animal controlling ability of Great Wilderness Sutra couldn't be matched by any other animal controller. If it's another animal controller who hasn't cultivated Great Wilderness Sutra, that animal controller might also be able to locate the location of this mountain cave from the animals in the mountain area. He might even know that a huge thing had flown into the mountain cave these days from the bats in the mountain cave. However, those animal controllers could never know the population and physical features of the bats by communicating with them like Zhang Tie could. Such an ability has already far surpassed that of an animal controller.'
'In this way, this trap has no loophole at all. Because the opponents have never imagined that I'm cultivating Great Wilderness Sutra, it's a trap targeting at me.' 'Of course, the opponents could never imagine that Zhang Tie could see through everything with lotus-flower eyes before entering the trap …'
'F * ck, 9 knights, 1 shadow knight of Heavens Reaching Church, 3 earth wing demon knights and 5 black iron wing demon knights. Demons and Heavens Reaching Church are too generous. Either they don't come here or they come here in such a great battle formation …'
Zhang Tie licked his lips …
'The 9 knights are simply like sparkling water chakras for me. They're full of allure; however, the problem is that they're also very dangerous …'
'What should I do?'
…
