After leaving the airboat, Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian soon arrived at the core region of Centralpillar Mountain at the speed of 3 times that of the speed of sound.
On the way, Zhang Tie found that he didn't see a single bird within 1 million square miles of Centralpillar Mountain, which looked a bit weird. After arriving at the core region of Centralpillar Mountain, Zhang Tie knew why Centralpillar Mountain was listed as one of the top 10 perilous places in South Border.
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem When he was about 200 miles away from the core region of Centralpillar Mountain, the landscape on the ground had changed abruptly. The verdant woods stopped at once, revealing a bare land covered with pitch-black stones and crisscrossed ravines. Due to the unique geographical environment of Centralpillar Mountain, Zhang Tie saw many mutated poisonous animals in those stones and ravines.
Some wrecked airships fell on the bare land, which were covered with black spots. Zhang Tie didn't know what made them rusty. Besides, Zhang Tie saw many animal bones.
Before coming here, it was sunny; however, after coming here, the weather became weird. Across Centralpillar Mountain, it was sunny in some places; it was raining in some places. Those places where the sun was raining might be covered with blood after a short while.
In his lotus-flower eyes, Zhang Tie saw layers of invisible energy raging in the space around Centralpillar Mountain, which caused the temperature of the space around Centralpillar Mountain to change sharply. The weather around Centralpillar Mountain also changed as much as a kid's face.
Closing his eyes, Zhang Tie felt that the elements in the entire Elements Realm became berserk in the region close to Centralpillar Mountain. Outside Centralpillar Mountain, the elements in the Elements Realm were like calm water surface; however, here, the four elements were like a stormy ocean.
"It's Centralpillar Mountain in front of us …" Bai Suxian shouted as she pointed at a mountain range in front of them.
The entire Centralpillar Mountain was like a sharp sword pointing at the heavens. Being over 10,000 m high, pitch-black and barren, it appeared on the ground in front of Zhang Tie with an awe-inspiring qi field.
The number of knights in the sky increased abruptly. Almost all the knights converged here from all directions. All the knights were flying towards the top of Centralpolar Mountain.
When they reached the top of the mountain, they could see a pitch-dark, huge cave leading to the underground. It was a bit like the Dragon Cave in Hidden Dragon Island. All the knights flew downwards from the underground cave.
Zhang Tie didn't slow down; instead, he continued to fly downwards at the same speed.
Like what Bai Suxian said just now, at the sight of Zhang Tie's flying speed, all the knights had given way to Zhang Tie as they dared not compete with Zhang Tie at all. In the eyes of those people, those who could fly at such a high speed were definitely heavenly knights. However, when Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian passed by them, those people became amazed as they didn't know who they were.
Hand in hand, those people didn't know whether Zhang Tie was a heavenly knight or Bai Suxian was a heavenly knight. Therefore, they could only guess who they were.
When the cave reached 20,000 m below the ground, it started to wriggle with a fork. However, Zhang Tie didn't worry that he couldn't find the way; because those forks had been marked with huge arrowheads using fluorescent powder. Many lone knights were loitering at those forks as they glanced at those people behind them.
Some lone knights shouted in the underground cave, "Team up, team up. The way to the Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect has already been marked by the brothers in front of us. If anyone would like to team up, come here. Unity is strength. We knights who have no background should unite with each other. As 3 of the top 6 sects have arrived here, even powerhouses of Lord Guangnan's Mansion have arrived. Even shadow knights dare not say that they could get something. If we don't team up, we're not even qualified to drink soup …"
"Yesterday, knights of the top 6 sects have already said that they would clear the place. Team up, team up …"
"I'm an earth knight in 3 change realm. I'm looking for a team of earth knights, preferably 9 people. We could form a three-element formation of earth knights …"
More than one knight was shouting in the underground cave. After hearing such shouts, some knights such as Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian directly flew inside while some others stopped and inquired about the situation inside or joined teams.
In order to fight against those sects and major clans with powerful backgrounds, those lone knights chose to expose the secret of this place as soon as possible. At this moment, the news about the Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect in South Border of Taixia Country had been widely spread in the Mountain of Brightness. However, those lone knights even left marks on the way here so that other lone knights could gather together.
Zhang Tie couldn't say anything about this situation. As for commoners, knights were powerful; however, those commoners didn't know that ordinary knights were relatively weak sometimes. If they didn't unite with each other, these earth knights and black iron knights who had no powerful backgrounds were not qualified to compete with those major clans and major clans at all.
Even knights were always struggling for their survival.
The tunnel in the mountain cave was very tortuous and increasingly narrow like a maze. Therefore, Zhang Tie slowed down.
After flying over an underground magma lake covering hundreds of square miles and tens of thousands of meters deeper, the terrain in front of Zhang Tie abruptly opened as a huge underground space appeared in front of Zhang Tie.
This huge underground space was almost millions of square kilometers. The ground of the entire space was covered with black metal spikes that were dozens of meters high. Those black metal spikes grew naturally from the ground. The uncanny workmanship of nature was inexplicable.
There were 81 huge black holes on the ground which were covered with metal spikes. At this moment, more than half of the black holes were covered with flames while white high-temperature flames were spurting out of the holes. Some were as high as 100 m; some were dozens of meters high. Given the color of the flames, Zhang Tie knew that the temperature of the flames was at least 5,000 degrees Celsius, which was even hotter than the hottest magma underground. The temperature of steel melting was less than 1,600 degrees Celsius. In such a high temperature, even a shadow knight would perish in the blink of an eye. Even a heavenly knight might not stand too long in such a high temperature …
Zhang Tie had not imagined that the Dongtian of Great Wilderness Sect was in such a perilous place …
