Therefore, they left on the second day.
Previously, Zhang Tie planned to visit Youzhou City with his parents on the second day; however, after coming to Huaiyuan Mansion, he sensed the intense atmosphere and preparation of Huaiyuan Palace for competing for the position of provincial governor of Youzhou Province. Zhang Tie's parents were not as determined as Zhang Tie; therefore, they decided to leave for Golden Light City by airship the next morning.
"Son, your mom and I have been very happy these days. We've not been so happy for many years. You don't need to worry about us anymore. No matter what, your mom and I are members of Huaiyuan Palace. It's okay if your mom and I don't make any contribution at this moment; however, if we keep delaying you, your mom and I will feel restless, not to mention that we don't know what's important. Therefore, after negotiating with your mom and Linda, Beverly and Fiona agreed, we will go back to Golden Light City today in case of distracting you. When the scramble for the provincial governor of Youzhou Province comes to an end, we will find a chance to come here again!"
This was Zhang Tie's dad's original words.
Realizing that his parents and wives had made up their minds to leave Youzhou City, Zhang Tie could only have the fury-level airship get off the ground together with the limousine "Travelers" and have the airship send his parents, wives and wives back to Golden Light City.
The airship directly arrived at the airport of Huaiyuan Mansion and loaded Zhang Tie's family members and the limousine.
If they went back to Golden Light City by airship, it would take them only one day. Therefore, after knowing that Zhang Tie would not be in danger, Zhang Tie's parents became reassured. Knowing that Zhang Tie would be safe this time, Zhang Tie's mom, Linda, Beverly and Fiona became reassured. After bidding farewell to Zhang Tie's parents, Linda, Beverly and Fiona kissed Zhang Tie's face before leaving happily.
"Daddy, you can do it!" Before leaving, Zhang Chenglei and the other kids cheered for Zhang Tie with a serious look, which made Zhang Tie smile.
At this time, for the great battle in two days. All the elders and clan heads of Huaiyuan Palace had entered secluded cultivation in their courtyards so as to prepare for the battle in the Heavens Ball in the best state.
Zhang Tie kept watching the airship flying towards Golden Light City. Until the dazzling sunlight shone into his eyes in the morning. Zhang Tie then moved his eyes back to the backroom of the courtyard.
Zhang Ping was right about one thing. If they left at this moment, Zhang Tie would definitely be able to join the battle two days later without any concern.
…
The backroom in the courtyard was not large, only over 40 square meters. It was located in the underground of the courtyard. As for knight-level powerhouses, this backroom was indeed a bit small for long-term cultivation. However, if it was just a short period of seclusion, then this secret room would be extremely dangerous. It was still passable.
Everything in the backroom had been prepared, including water, food, some medicaments that might be used in secluded cultivation. Of course, there were also 4 earth-element crystals. The 4 earth-element crystals were not included in the daily offerings of elders of Huaiyuan Palace; instead, they were used by Huaiyuan Palace for competing for the position of provincial governor of Youzhou Province. After coming to Youzhou City, each elder gained 4 earth-element crystals. The 4 earth-element crystals were always placed in the backroom of this courtyard. Zhang Tie had not touched them at all.
Speaking of earth-element crystals, Zhang Tie recalled his achievements in Waii Sub-continent. Besides the 5879 earth-element crystals in the space-teleportation equipment of the demon general, he gained some more in the process of looting the secret warehouses of those Three-eye Association clans. However, there were only 3,511 earth-element crystals stored in all the Three-eye Association clans across Waii Sub-continent. There were 9,390 earth-element crystals in total, which were not enough for him to light 30 scale chakras.
'Almost 10,000 earth-element crystals are already a great figure for other knights; however, I need about 100,000 earth-element crystals to light the second chakra of King Roc Sutra. '
'100,000 earth-element crystals? 'Even though I'm as lucky as I was in Waii Sub-continent, I'm afraid that I have to loot 10 subcontinents if I want to gain 100,000 earth-element crystals. It's absolutely impossible. Three-eye Association and demons are not idiots. They won't have so many benefits for me.' Gorath had already become the target of the public. After making a feint in Blackhot Sub-continent, Zhang Tie had Gorath disappear completely because he had sensed the danger facing the identity of Gorath. If demons and Three-eye Association wanted to deal with Gorath this time, they would definitely not send black iron knights to Gorath.
Zhang Tie picked up an earth-element crystal and stroked its shiny surface for a short while. After that, he let out a sigh as he sat on the bed with crossed legs. After that, he took out that elements-gathering matrix from the space-teleportation equipment of the demon general and put it in front of him. After that, he soon entered the elements realm...
In the elements realm, spiritual hands started to form one after another, one, two, three... 10, 11... 18 hands of spiritual energy didn't stop until there were 18 hands of spiritual energy.
9 of the 18 hands were transporting the earth elements in the earth-element crystals while the other 9 hands were capturing those free polyhedral crystals in the elements realm.
If someone were to witness this scene, they would definitely be dumbfounded by such efficiency. As for Zhang Tie, since he made a breakthrough in his spiritual energy in Dragon Cave and took the fruit of brilliance which contained the spiritual energy of 13 knights of Three-eye Association, after digesting it for about half a year, it was as easy as walking for him to do this.
Zhang Tie didn't know whether it was the upper limit of multitasking. However, at this moment, Zhang Tie felt that even though he still had some surplus spiritual energy, he couldn't make further progress in multitasking skill. Each time he visualized 19 abacuses in his mind and attempted to make a breakthrough, he would feel like exploding his brain. He would hear thunders and see stars. His spiritual energy would also become disordered as if he was going to be possessed by the devil at any time. After trying it twice, Zhang Tie dared not make another attempt anymore. He could only accept the current result.
18 was the integral multiple of 9. In the eyes of Hua people, the number 9 represented a certain extreme meaning of mathematics. When he remembered that those fruits on the small tree were also restricted by some mathematical rules, Zhang Tie guessed that this might be the limit of a black iron knight's multitasking ability. He wondered whether he could make a breakthrough to an earth knight or not. In the current situation, if Zhang Tie only captured those earth element crystals in the elements realm without using earth-element crystals, even with the help of the elements gathering matrix, Zhang Tie's speed of capturing those earth element crystals had also surpassed the frequency of the earth element crystals that appeared in his perceptive range in the elements realm. 9 hands was the upper limit of this elements gathering matrix.
Being transported by 9 hands, Zhang Tie consumed earth-element crystals very fast. Each earth-element crystal could only stand less than 4 hours in Zhang Tie's hands before being completely sucked dry by Zhang Tie.
In 2 days, Zhang Tie consumed 12 earth-element crystals in total in the backroom.
After 2 days' cultivation, the 10th dragon scale on Zhang Tie's knight's crystal plate gradually lit up...
Among the 12 earth-element crystals that Zhang Tie consumed, 11 of them came from his own storage. He only used one of the 4 earth-element crystals that Huaiyuan Palace provided to elders in the backroom. He didn't touch the other 3 earth-element crystals.
In this way, in the eyes of others, Zhang Tie had only consumed 1 earth-element crystal out of the 4 earth-element crystals, which was as normal as that of a knight who had just promoted to a new knight.
Zhang Tie would never be careless about such details.
On the evening of the 2nd day, Zhang Tie entered the trouble-reappearance situation. After activating Master Abyan and a lot of demon fighters in the map of Dragon Cave, Zhang Tie slowly reviewed the feeling of fighting in the trouble-reappearance situation. After that, he drank two vials of all-purpose medicament and fell asleep at once.
Zhang Tie slept for 4 hours, which was almost the longest time he had slept during this period.
At 5 am on October 5th, Zhang Tie walked out of the backroom as energetic as a wild ox in heat. When he opened and closed his eyes, there seemed to be lightning sparks in them.
A team of female servants had long been waiting for Zhang Tie in the courtyard. At the sight of Zhang Tie, they had started to help Zhang Tie wash his face and rinse his mouth, take a bath, take a rest and tidy himself up. Finally, they helped Zhang Tie put on a set of brilliant robe made of boa silk, making Zhang Tie look brand new from head to toe.
After doing all this, Zhang Tie burned incense and entered meditation with eyes closed. When it was 7 am, Zhang Tie opened his eyes and walked out of that small courtyard.
At this moment, it was already daybreak while the first wisp of sunshine was still in Youzhou City.
Youzhou City seemed to be in a silent state like a suspended pendulum clock. Usually, the streets outside Huaiyuan Mansion would be boisterous at this moment; however, it was quiet today.
Zhang Taixuan and the other 5 elders of Huaiyuan Palace almost walked out of their own courtyards at the same time. At the sight of Zhang Tie's energetic look, all of them nodded inside, 'It seems that Elder Mushen has made a good preparation over the past 2 days. He has entered the best state.'
All the people in Huaiyuan Mansion were gathering in the courtyard in rows respectfully and solemnly like clay statues.
"Let's go!" Zhang Taixuan opened his mouth. Closely after that, all the others flew off...
"Clan head and elders, wish you could win the position of provincial governor of Youzhou Province and strengthen the prestige of Huaiyuan Palace!" In the mansion, all the members of Huaiyuan Palace bowed to the ground as they saw them off respectfully in unison …
