Besides Zhang Tie, there were only Navas and some jailers who were responsible for torturing him every day in the torture room and the cells. This was not the manor when he woke up for the first time. However, Zhang Tie didn't know where it was. He only knew that it must be near Tokei City.
Only after staying here for 3 days, Zhang Tie had been tortured badly. He would pass out for a few times each day. 3 of his 10 fingers had been broken; 4 of his fingernails had been pulled out; the bone of his left calf was broken into many pieces by a torture instrument called grinding rod.
Anyone else would have long collapsed in such a torture; however, Zhang Tie didn't.
Senel Clan wanted the production method of all-purpose medicament. Zhang Tie knew that as long as he opened his mouth, he would be doomed to death.
...
On the 4th day, Navas inserted red-hot steel needles into Zhang Tie's flesh through his fingernails. Zhang Tie quivered all over as he uttered a loud shriek in the indescribable pain. Closely after that, he passed out.
When Zhang Tie passed out, he remembered that there was still light coming from a ventilation hole on the wall of the torture chamber. However, when he was woken up by a basin of water, there was no light coming from that ventilation hole.
Zhang Tie didn't know how long he had been in a coma. He only knew that it must be dark outside. His 10 fingers had been too painful to feel that they didn't belong to him anymore.
"You're really tough!" Navas sneered as he walked to the front of Zhang Tie. Under the glow of the furnace, his face looked as grim as that of a devil. He then grabbed Zhang Tie's hair rudely. "How about that? Do you want to say something? Otherwise, there will be more interesting things!"
"F * ck... you!" Zhang Tie raised his eyes as he replied weakly. At this moment, Navas... Zhang Tie's vision had started to blur and shake.
Navas sneered. After putting down Zhang Tie's hair, he turned around and watched a jailer who was soaking a leather whip in a bucket of water, "Have you added salt into the bucket?"
"Ah, no..."
"Idiot. At this time, some of the wounds on his body were just about to form scabs. Add salt to the water so that the whip will hurt more. It will make all the wounds on his body feel like they are on fire. Even a man made of iron will not be able to withstand it. Hurry up and go! "
The jailer ran off to fetch the salt, and soon returned. He poured a packet of salt into the bucket and began to stir it with the whip.
After a few minutes, under the sweating whipping of the jailer, Zhang Tie's flesh and blood flew everywhere. In the end, when the jailer couldn't even wave his whip anymore, Navas told the jailer to stop. After checking Zhang Tie's situation, he had the jailer pour some saline water and medicament into Zhang Tie's mouth. After that, he threw Zhang Tie into the cell once again. Additionally, he fastened a pair of alloy shackles on Zhang Tie's neck. One end of the shackles was an iron chain, which was fixed on a wall of the cell in order to restrict Zhang Tie's mobility.
"Let's torture him enough today. We will continue it tomorrow. This brat can really stand it. It's been 4 days. I've not seen anyone who could stand more than 3 days at a time." Navas murmured to the jailer.
With a sound of "clang", the door of the cell was locked. Closely after that, the door of the torture chamber was also locked. Zhang Tie was left alone in the cell.
After a long while, Zhang Tie opened his eyes as he felt that his body was gradually recovering.
In the evening, the preliminary recovery body started to take effect. As a result, Zhang Tie could recover at a faster speed. This was the main reason why Zhang Tie could stand these days. Senel Clan could seal his surging points; however, they couldn't seal his preliminary recovery body. Because the latter ability had already become his instinct.
Lying on the ground, Zhang Tie didn't even have the strength to pick himself up. He could only wait for his body to recover a bit. In order to prevent him from being unable to recover or starving to death, Navas would feed him some saline water and a very low-level nutrient recovery medicament each time. Sometimes, he would throw some pieces of cold bread to him.
Putting his face on the icy ground, Zhang Tie saw a rat running to his front. After sniffing him and shaking its whiskers, it seemed that it wanted to check Zhang Tie's situation. Perhaps it found that Zhang Tie couldn't eat or Zhang Tie had the qi of All-spirits Pagoda, the rat didn't touch Zhang Tie; instead, it just wandered around in the cell. Finally, it found a piece of bread crumb in a corner of the cell and started to enjoy it.
When the rat was eating its supper, Zhang Tie suddenly felt that the Shrine burning point in his belly button started to heat up. Only after more than ten minutes, the Shrine burning point seemed to have been torn apart. At the same time, a bizarre yet relaxed feeling spread over Zhang Tie's body.
Zhang Tie knew that his Shrine surging point had broken through the restraint of Senel Clan.
The breakthrough of the Shrine burning point brought a brand new energy to Zhang Tie's body. At this moment, Zhang Tie felt like he had reignited his Shrine burning point and became a LV 1 novice fighter from a commoner.
Although being a newbie fighter, the ability of a newbie fighter was also of great importance to Zhang Tie at this moment.
The moment Zhang Tie wanted to pick himself up, his face suddenly turned pale. The great pain from his 10 fingers caused his forehead to be covered with sweat beads at once. He almost knelt down once again. Gritting his teeth, Zhang Tie supported his elbows on the ground and struggled to pick himself up. Finally, he sat up. The moment he wanted to lean against the wall, the wound on his shoulder and back touched the icy wall, Zhang Tie quivered all over and hurriedly moved his back away from the wall...
Zhang Tie breathed the dirty air in the cell for a few minutes. After the pain on his hands and shoulders eased a bit, Zhang Tie closed his eyes and started to check his physical condition carefully.
The Shrine surging point was still the same Shrine surging point in that surging point. The spiritual feather of king roc's seed talisman was still giving out brilliant light and displaying the dignity of an emperor-level secret method. It seemed that it was not influenced at all. At this moment, the Shrine surging point was like a warm flame. It gave out brilliant light in Zhang Tie's icy body. It brought Zhang Tie endless warmth and hope.
After breaking through the restraint of the Shrine surging point, Zhang Tie found that his mind sea seemed to have been frozen. The spiritual energy which he could barely mobilize could also be activated. Not only the spiritual energy became active once again, even the god's rune in his mind sea and the All-spirits Pagoda became clearer and sharper.
Zhang Tie ran his spiritual energy as he instantly sucked a mouthful of the all-purpose medicament in Castle of Black Iron into his mouth. After that, he sucked a few more mouthfuls. Zhang Tie didn't stop until the amount of all-purpose medicament was equal to that of 4 vials of all-purpose medicament...
The moment the all-purpose medicament entered Zhang Tie's stomach, it had started to exert its great effect...
The sense of hunger and coldness started to disappear from Zhang Tie's body. The pain all over his body was greatly alleviated. His 10 fingers which had suffered heavy injuries today started to gradually recover like being soaked in a kettle.
Zhang Tie picked himself up once again. Although it was a bit difficult, he still stood up. He touched the metal shackle which restricted his movement. After pulling the thick iron chain which was connected to the shackle, Zhang Tie twisted his head.
"Heller, can I enter Castle of Black Iron in this situation?" Zhang Tie asked Heller.
"No, Castle Lord, the shackle and the iron chain are like your clothes. They are closely related to your body. If you want to enter Castle of Black Iron by force, you will also drag them in. However, they are fixed on the wall of the cell. Therefore, if Castle Lord wants to enter Castle of Black Iron in this situation, the moment you enter Castle of Black Iron, your neck would be broken by the pulling force of the shackle and the iron chain!"
Zhang Tie swore inside, 'Do you have to do that, b * stards of Senel Clan? This father has been treated like a commoner by you. How could you restrict this father's movement in the cell?'
"Is there any solution?"
"I can only open the shackle with a key or cut open the iron chain."
A whim occurred to Zhang Tie as he recalled those tools in Castle of Black Iron. A small saw blade appeared in his hand. After looking around the cell and the cell, Zhang Tie found nobody was paying attention to him. Therefore, he started to saw the saw blade in an inconspicuous place on the iron chain while bearing the great pain and discomfort in his hand.
After sawing, Zhang Tie found that the iron chain seemed to be made of a senior special alloy. Its firmness was far greater than his imagination. After sawing it for over 10 minutes, he didn't even leave a mark on the iron chain. However, as his hand had just been heavily injured, even if he drank all-purpose medicament, he could not recover so fast. Only after 10 minutes, Zhang Tie had sweated all over with a pale face. Finally, his hands started to quiver uncontrollably. As a result, the saw blade fell off his hand, causing a light sound in the cell...
The rat who was eating bread crumbs was startled as it instantly drilled into a dark corner of the cell. There seemed to be an entrance of a narrow sewer over there.
The moment he heard the light sound, Zhang Tie had known that he was in trouble. He hurriedly squatted down and teleported the saw blade into Castle of Black Iron. After that, he pretended to be wounded and lay still on the ground.
As was imagined, after a few seconds, the iron gate outside the torture chamber was opened. Hearing the footsteps, Zhang Tie knew that it was a jailer who came in to check the situation after hearing the noise...
Zhang Tie pretended to twist his body on the ground painfully, causing the chain to make a light sound.
"Jeff, what's the matter?" Someone shouted vaguely outside the torture chamber. He seemed to be chewing something in his mouth.
"Ah, nothing. This brat moved a bit, causing the iron chain to rub against the ground!" The one who entered the room replied.
"Don't make a fuss. This brat is in the cell. We're watching him. How could he escape? Hurry up, come back. These drinks and dishes will not taste good if they get cold!"
The guy who came in, Jeff, muttered something, then locked the door and went out.
Zhang Tie kept hearing that guy's footsteps. Finally, he heard the sound of a bunch of keys being thrown onto the table...
Not knowing why, when the key was thrown onto the table, Zhang Tie's mind suddenly became blank. At the same time, a whim flashed across his mind like a broken silver bottle.
Zhang Tie became thrilled as he knew that this was his only chance.
In such a situation, this method was definitely worth a try.
After a few minutes, Zhang Tie slowly sat up with crossed legs. After taking in a deep breath, he watched the place where the rat disappeared. At the same time, he made a hand gesture and started to mutter.
After a short while, the big rat drilled out of the sewer in the dark corner and ran to the front of Zhang Tie. After sitting on the ground, it watched Zhang Tie quietly.
'Whatever, let's just let it be. Hopefully, the secret skill of Great Wilderness Sect works. '
Zhang Tie revealed a bitter smile as the All-spirits Pagoda in his mind sea moved. When he touched the rat's head, the most mysterious Great Wilderness Seal on the second floor of All-spirits Pagoda which could control all the living beings below LV 1 and represented the quintessence and most powerful content of "Great Wilderness Sutra" fell onto the rat's body.
In a split second, Zhang Tie felt something missing from his body and flew into the rat's body.
In the next second, Zhang Tie was so scared that he sprung up and uttered a squeak...
Because in the next moment, he left his body. It was as if his soul had left his body. He saw himself sitting in front of him.
The "Zhang Tie" in front of Zhang Tie looked extremely tall and sturdy. Being covered with scars, he sat on the ground with crossed legs still.
Even though Zhang Tie had looked in the mirror for many times, it was his first time to have such a perspective and experience. Therefore, Zhang Tie was full of shock.
'Am I dead? ' A question arose in Zhang Tie's mind.
The moment this question arose, Zhang Tie had realized that he was not dead; instead, he had become that rat. No, he had not become a rat. Instead, his consciousness and perception had been transferred to that rat. At this moment, he was that rat and that rat was him. His original body was still there; however, he had a substitute.
This was the secret skill of soul-based animal controlling, an out-of-body incarnation of far-ancient humans. It was indeed a secret among secrets. The Great Wilderness Sect on the Eastern Continent had risen and perished because of this. Zhang Tie understood it at once as he became thrilled.
