On the second day, the moment it broke, all the immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City had appeared in a desolate land over 60 miles away from Heavenly Square City at the same time. They were all watching a huge pit in the middle of the desolate land with solemn looks.
"It seemed to be a hill yesterday; I've not imagined that … it has become like this today …" Liu Meng whispered to Zhang Tie secretly as he drew in a cold breath. Zhang Tie could sense the fear of Liu brothers from Liu Meng's tone.
Actually, none of the immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace could remain calm at the sight of such a huge pit.
Of course, Zhang Tie pretended to be solemn as he frowned with a solemn look and pursed his lips. He watched this huge pit and those trees, rocks and mounds within dozens of square miles which had collapsed, broken or even been carbonized as if they had suffered a great natural disaster. The area within dozens of square miles had completely become a terrifying no-man's zone without any life.
Last night, Heavenly Square City was in chaos. All the immortal generals of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace in Heavenly Square City including Zhang Tie who was "in secluded cultivation" were called out urgently. All the immortal generals put on their flight armors and guarded Heavenly Square City overnight in case of any accident. Not until this morning when the chaos in Heavenly Square City subsided for a short while did they fly to this desolate land under the leadership of Head Huang meticulously to check what happened.
From the sky, what appeared in front of everyone was a huge pit with a diameter of more than one kilometer and a depth of hundreds of meters. The terrain around this huge pit had completely changed. Hills were flattened, and everything within dozens of square kilometers seemed to have encountered an unimaginable disaster.
At the sight of such a scene, all the people who were suspending above the huge pit in flight armors were so shocked that they couldn't utter a word for quite a while.
Zhang Tie's solemn look was partly real; partly fake. Because he was the "culprit" of all this. He had "seen" such a scene last night. However, before he watched it for a long time, the entire Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had rocked. At the same time, he was "woken up" by Leng Manxue and entered the "battle state". Closely after that, he patrolled Heavenly Square City overnight.
When Zhang Tie saw and experienced such a scene from a close distance, he felt more impactful and shocked. Besides being shocked, Zhang Tie also felt lucky. Thankfully, he was very careful last night as he placed the experiment in this hill over 60 miles away from Heavenly Square City. If he still treated Zi Clan Castle as his target, Heavenly Square City might have already been destroyed. Most of the millions of people in Heavenly Square City would have been turned into ashes by this strike. In this way, he would have committed a great sin.
Zhang Tie had not imagined that his experimental strike could have such a terrifying effect. The power of this strike had already far surpassed the greatest power of his kinetic strike. Zhang Tie didn't know why either. Last night, he could still clearly remember that the moment the two energies collided and integrated, the two energies were annihilated in a split second. In the annihilation, a strong light appeared out of nowhere along with terrifying lightning bolts. As a result, everything here became what it was now.
"Let's take a look down there …" Huang Baimei uttered after a few seconds above the huge pit as he flapped his wings and dove into the huge pit, closely followed by the others, including Zhang Tie.
When they arrived at the crater, their feet landed on the ground at the bottom of the crater. When they saw the scene within the crater, everyone's expressions turned even more serious.
The huge pit, which was hundreds of meters deep, was extremely dry. There wasn't a single drop of water in the entire pit. Not only was the pit dry, but it was also strangely smooth. Whether it was the ground or the surroundings of the pit, there seemed to be a strange, extremely thick layer of melted wax like that of a melted candle.
Watching them looking around meticulously for those bizarre things, Zhang Tie also squatted down. Closely after that, he picked up a palm-sized, dark-grey molten substance. This molten substance looked like a glass or a colored glaze. Its color was not pure. Holding it, it felt very strange. This molten substance was dark-grey. Some other molten substances in the distance were black, light blue, greyish green, even dark red like a palette.
Children might find this place magical, but to the Divine Generals, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.
Ji Yuelan who looked a bit pale stealthily moved closer to Zhang Tie. It seemed that she could only feel a sense of security on Zhang Tie's side.
"It's produced after the rocks at the foot of the hill are melted due to the extremely high temperature. It's similar to glass. The reason why it has various colors is that some metal components in the rocks at the foot of the hill and underground have also been melted inside …" Leng Manxue said icily while holding a piece of dark-green crystal in her hand.
"Let's search around this huge pit separately. See if there's anything special!" Head Huang said. After hearing the order, all the immortal generals flew off and circled around the huge pit. After a few minutes, they all flew back and shook their heads as they found nothing. Head Huang said, "You're right.
"Let's go back to the immortal palace then …"
Head Huang made a decision straightforwardly. After finding nothing special here, he directly led them back to Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.
After that, they flew off towards Heavenly Square City with Head Huang.
Under their feet, the surrounding hills around the huge pit had been severely damaged. If these hills didn't offset the power of the huge pit like a protective wall, Heavenly Square City might have suffered a greater loss.
At the sight of this scene, Zhang Tie felt lucky once again.
The flight suit moved very fast and was very flexible. The moment it unfolded its wings, the entire suit would be driven by knights' battle qi. At its full speed, ordinary immortal generals could reach about 600 miles per hour. It was said that there were more advanced flight suits; however, they were not available in Taixia Country. Even though Zhang Tie had experienced various flight modes, he still felt fresh when he used a flight suit for the first time.
On the way back, they didn't speak at all. The atmosphere was a bit solemn. Although Zhang Tie felt relaxed, he dared not show it. He just immersed himself in the flight suit. As he experienced it, he studied the secrets of this flight suit.
Air-floating metal was the key material of flight suit. Besides, Zhang Tie found that the flight suit required a bizarre crystal which contained some odd runes. The combination of the three elements was the key for the flight suit to fly freely in the sky under the control of battle qi.
"Deputy head, you're really diligent these days. You've been cultivating in your room and ignoring others …" Ji Yuelan approached Zhang Tie as she told Zhang Tie secretly.
With a glare, the beauty pushed Liu brothers who were flying close to Zhang Tie aside.
Watching Ji Yuelan approaching Zhang Tie, Liu brothers felt it was normal. Huang Baimei and Leng Manxue didn't care about it either. Only Zhou Baifei who was not far away turned around and threw a glance at them.
By now, Zhang Tie knew that the immortal palace had held another vowing ceremony during the past two days when his mind sea was turned upside down. All of them had officially joined the immortal palace and got their own positions.
Take that toy boy as an instance, Zhang Tie knew that he was called Zhou Baifei, who served as the general priest of the immortal palace.
A couple of days ago, Zhang Tie didn't hate this guy so much; however, after seeing that this guy cheated women, Zhou Baifei's image in Zhang Tie's mind suffered a sharp decline as he became a toy boy in Zhang Tie's eyes. Zhang Tie despised such men who cheated and made use of women's feelings the most. In Zhang Tie's eyes, such men were absolutely scumbags. No matter how handsome they were or how high their levels were, they were always inferior to those male workers in nightclubs who were responsible for satisfying the sexual desires of rich women. After all, the latter would not sell their feelings even if they sold their bodies. By contrast, the former treated their feelings as something that could be used to show off, which was more disgusting.
"How could I make progress if I don't cultivate …" Zhang Tie replied kindly as if he had not heard Ji Yuelan's dissatisfaction.
"Hmm!" Ji Yuelan replied with a cold harrumph, "Wish you promote to an immortal emperor as soon as possible …"
"Thanks for your good words, elder sister. If I promote to an immortal emperor, I will let elder sister be the elder of the immortal palace …" Zhang Tie replied with a solemn look.
"Humph, who cares about that …"
"Even elder doesn't care about that. Let elder sister help me make the bed and fold the quilt …"
"Naughty …"
This "I hate you" was so sweet that it went straight to the bone. From the voice, it seemed that the owner's mood was the exact opposite. Suddenly, the clouds parted and the sun appeared.
"What's wrong with that huge pit?"
"It should be a natural disaster!" Zhang Tie replied without even blinking his eyes.
"I don't think so …"
"If it's not a natural disaster, elder sister, do you think it's man-made?"
"But even a supreme immortal general's strike couldn't be so terrifying, not to mention causing such a strange result …"
"Then it must be a natural disaster!"
"Alas, not knowing why, I always feel that Motian Realm is becoming more and more chaotic …" Ji Yuelan said in a sentimental way which was rare for her …
Only after a short while, the members of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had arrived at Heavenly Square City.
Looking down from the sky, Heavenly Square City had calmed down at this moment. However, a lot of people had gathered on several spacious squares in the city. Some of them had set up tents on the squares as if they were still worried about another earthquake.
The immortal generals directly landed at the gate of the top of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace …
