Castle of Black Iron
chapter-1651

For almost three hours, when the others became impatient, Zhang Tie and Ji Yuelan were engrossed in conversation. In the beginning, they chatted in normal tones. Later on, they chatted secretly using their battle qis.

The others at present didn't know what they were talking about; however, Ji Yuelan's laughter every once a while made her eye-catching.

During the past three hours, when Zhang Tie entered here for over 1 hour, another tall and tough earth immortal general had arrived. Plus Zhang Tie, there were 10 immortal generals in the room in total.

Being different than other women that Zhang Tie had ever known, Ji Yuelan had a very special feature, namely being interested in chatting. She was very talkative. As long as she started a talk, her petite mouth would keep chattering like a machine gun for a few hours without repetition. Additionally, she would become more and more excited through talking. As a result, she would feel thirsty and breathless as her eyes turned watery and her face flushed.

When he found those people in the room were watching him with awe-stricken even despised eyes, Zhang Tie pledged that he was not flirting with Ji Yuelan. Actually, not like other women, this female immortal general would make herself extremely thrilled only by chattering at her will as if Zhang Tie was flirting with her.

Zhang Tie had heard about such a kind of self-pleasing woman before. Unimaginably, he could meet one in Motian Realm. It was like having a pillow when he felt like going to bed.

Over 3 hours might only mean a nap or short time sit-up for others; however, Zhang Tie learned a lot from Ji Yuelan about immortal palace during this period of time and fixed his shortage about the information of immortal palace. Additionally, he knew the Motian Realm better. No matter what, the knowledge and experience of an immortal general about this world; especially about the class of immortal general could never be matched by commoners.

As was beforementioned, in Motian Realm, as long as one promoted to a supreme immortal general, he or she would be qualified to found an immortal palace. The immortal palaces founded by supreme immortal generals were easily identified. Generally, each immortal palace would be distinctive due to its name; as long as there was no word "emperor" in the name of an immortal palace, the immortal palace must be founded by a supreme immortal general or a sage-level knight.

Immortal palaces like Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was founded by an immortal emperor, the top power in Motian Realm. The widely accepted name of the top power was Dragon Emperor.

Before Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was founded, the person was just a supreme immortal general called Ying Canglong instead of Dragon Emperor. In the beginning, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was called Canglong Immortal Palace. About 1,200 years ago, Ying Canglong promoted to an immortal emperor and shocked the entire Motian Realm. As a result, Cang Long Immortal Palace was renamed as Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace.

Among humans in Motian Realm, there were three emperor-level immortal palaces, namely three top forces, respectively Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, Star Emperor Immortal Palace and Force Emperor Immortal Palace.

Star Emperor Immortal Palace and Force Emperor Immortal Palace were the most time-honored immortal palaces in Motian Realm with the greatest influences. Previously, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace was also prosperous; however, since Dragon Emperor gradually didn't show up in the public 900 years ago, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had been declining. As of now, Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had become fat prey in the eyes of other forces.

Emperor-level immortal palaces had very great influence. Although Motian Realm was not divided by countries, an emperor-level immortal palace was almost like a top country in population, number of cities, influence and battle force. To a certain degree, the immortal palace was a combination of sect and country. One immortal palace was as powerful as a country in the world where Zhang Tie came from. Those who could found immoral palaces deserved to be the idols of all the others and worshipped by hundreds of millions of people.

In Motian Realm, besides being power center, the immortal palace was also similar to trade unison of knights which could only be accessible to immortal generals, staff inside immortal palaces or some major figures within the territory of immortal palaces. Commoners could only enter the immortal halls in cities, which were affiliated to immortal palaces. Immortal palaces were divided into different scales and classes. In this world, immortal palaces were as hierarchical as troops.

Being similar to those clans in Taixia Country, all the clans in this world aimed to found their own immortal palaces one day.

In this world, immortal palaces were scrambling for the population. As a result, the relationships between immortal palaces and between immortal palaces and those clans which had not found their immortal palaces were very complex. Some clans would join immortal palaces voluntarily and give concession to immortal palaces; they would develop their own strength with the protection of immortal palaces; hopefully, one of their clan members could promote to a supreme immortal general one day and found their own immortal palace. Some clans would cooperate with each other and form a regional alliance so as to compete with immortal palaces.

It was very difficult to found an immortal palace. Additionally, immortal palaces would collapse at any time. The main reason for the collapse of immortal palaces was the death of its core figures such as a supreme immortal general or an immortal emperor...

When Zhang Tie was told that even an immortal emperor would die, he was startled again. In Zhang Tie's opinion, even sage-level knights in the world where he came from could barely die unless they didn't feel like living any longer. In Yun Zhongzi's words, a sage-level knight could at least escape successfully if he couldn't defeat his enemy. How could immortal emperors in Motian Realm be killed? That was unimaginable...

Zhang Tie finally couldn't stand asking Ji Yuelan secretly using his battle qi. "Wait...Sister Lan, how could immortal emperor die? As the most powerful ones in Motian Realm, how could they die..."

"Young brother, it appears that you could remember nothing for real; otherwise, how could you not know the death of rune emperor 300 years ago..." Ji Yuelan rolled her eyes to Zhang Tie. As for Ji Yuelan, besides the fact that Zhang Tie had forgotten about everything, his surprising look and serious expression was too cute. Therefore, she felt that this rare young man was very interesting. "300 years ago, there were four emperor-level immortal palaces among humans. Rune Emperor was also unrivaled in Motian Realm. Pitifully, Rune Emperor was always conceited. When he was in the dark valley, he was trapped by Tricky Demon Emperor and mired in the deity-killing formation of over 10,000 demon generals. Finally, although he killed thousands of demon generals, he was also shattered. In the few days after his death, the Rune Emperor Immortal Palace had perished and been divided by the other three immortal palaces. Of course, it was just an accident. Besides, in every 360 years, when the Mountain Ruins open, all the top humans and demons who were qualified to found immortal palaces would fight to death in the Mountain Ruins. Over tens of thousands of years, many immortal emperors and demon emperors had perished in the Mountain Ruins..."

'A formation of over 10,000 demon generals could kill an immortal emperor who's higher than a sage-level knight?'

Zhang Tie didn't believe in it. Given his experience in fighting demons in Earth-elements Realm and at the bank of Weishui River, even a formation of 100,000 demon knights could barely trap a sage-level knight, not to mention an immortal emperor. This message challenged Zhang Tie's common sense. In the world where he came from, the biggest role of the formation of knights was to deter and resist the opposite formation of knights. Such a formation could always shatter low-level knights; however, its role was very limited for powers above heavenly knight. At least Zhang Tie had not heard that any heavenly knight was killed by the opposite formation of knights in the three holy wars. How could a formation of immortal generals in Motian Realm easily kill an immortal emperor?

'Is the formation of immortal generals in Motian Realm different than the formation of knights in Taixia Country? As long as the formation is large enough, it would be able to kill an immortal emperor? And what's the Mountain Ruins? How could it attract sage-level knights and immortal emperors to fight each other in every hundred years?'

Ji Yuelan's introduction aroused more questions in Zhang Tie's mind. The moment Zhang Tie wanted Ji Yuelan to continue her introduction, the door had been open. They finally saw the owner of this place after waiting for three hours.

It was an old man in black long robe with dragon pattern and a woman in fiery outfit.

Only after throwing a glance at them, Zhang Tie had known that the old man was a shadow knight while that woman was an earth knight. Of course, according to the standard of Motian Realm, the old man was a water immortal general while the woman was an earth immortal general.

Watching them coming in, all the 10 people stood up and cupped their hands towards the old man with sincerity no matter how impatient they were.
