Castle of Black Iron
chapter-1931-30041322

The entrance of this tower still remained complete. Additionally, there were looming lights on both sides of the 100 m high white entrance. It was a white light curtain at the entrance; instead of a gate. When they approached the entrance, a semi-transparent palm-sized token suddenly appeared in Tang Mei’s hand. The token then gave out a light towards the white light curtain, reflecting a portal on the light curtain. Zhang Tie and Tang Mei rushed in at a stroke.

When Zhang Tie entered the portal, he saw colorful light and shade. At the same time, a huge transparent bubble appeared on Zhang Tie’s side and wrapped him. Closely after that, the bubble flew upwards. Zhang Tie felt weightless as if he were sent into the sky by a rapid ascending air. In less than 1 second, when the light and shadow disappeared, the bubble also burst. Zhang Tie found that he was already in a spacious and bright palace.

Behind Zhang Tie, there were three circular portals, each one contained a light curtain, forming a triangular pyramid which was higher than 10 m. In front of Zhang Tie, there were two rows of deities’ battle puppets on both sides of the palace.

When Zhang Tie and Tang Mei arrived here, the two rows of deities’ battle puppets suddenly opened their eyes and fixated onto them at the same time.

There were only about 20 deities’ battle puppets. However, two of them were blue, which meant that their battle force was close to that of immortal emperor. When Zhang Tie found all of them had fixated onto him, he felt like having goosebumps over his scalp and was ready for a battle…

“Wait a moment…” Tang Mei said as she raised the same token. The token gave out another light, which scanned over the entire palace. Those deity battle puppets whose eyes had turned red instantly closed their eyes and continued to sleep.

Zhang Tie was petrified. Gazing at that token in Tang Mei’s hand, Zhang Tie asked, “What’s that?”

“It’s a token for instrumental spirit in Motian Realm to access to the Heavens of Light. I didn’t use it before beause it only works here…”

Zhang Tie looked around as he asked, “Is this the entrance of the Heavens of Light?”

“No, we’re in the Instrumental Spirit Palace for instrumental spirits of Motian Realm. We could take a rest here. When we’re ready, we could enter the Heavens of Light…”

Zhang Tie nodded. After taking another look at those motionless deities’ battle puppets, he became completely relaxed as he put away his Heavens Separation Sword and said, “Why does the instrumental spirit of Motian Realm have an Instrumental Spirit Palace in Buzhou Mountain?”

“At the beginning, the function of Motian Realm was to help deities construct Buzhou Mountain. The instrumental spirit of Motian Realm was like the general logistics butler of Buzhou Mountain. Of course, there’s a Instrumental Spirit Palace…”

“Oh, I see!”

Zhang Tie and Tang Mei could really take a short rest here and make preparation to climb the higher floor. The two people had already advanced all the way here in various means and tricks over the past one more month. Therefore, they were intense all the way.

Tang Mei had already found a place to sit down with crossed legs and closed eyes. Zhang Tie then started to stroll in the Instrumental Spirit Palace.

Besides this lobby, there were some rooms in the palace. However, all the rooms were as clean as this lobby. Therefore, Zhang Tie became a bit disappointed. Over the past one month, Zhang Tie had been used to acquiring something more or less.

“Why it’s none here. The former instrumental spirit was too poor. The former king roc at least left the infinite immortal hell to me…” Zhang Tie heaved a sigh helplessly when he came back to Tang Mei’s side and said.

“There were many objects here. But all of them have been moved to Emperor NvWa’s Palace after the war between deities…”

“Is there any similar place in this tower?”

“Yes, there is; but those places are all relatively private. We couldn’t access them without a specific token!”

After hearing Tang Mei’s words, Zhang Tie became completely disappointed as he also closed his eyes and started to recover himself. At the same time, he started to form a body-separation run in his mind sea…

Over these days, Zhang Tie’s body-separation rune played a great role all the way here.

Although deities’ battle puppets were powerful, they had limited intelligence. They couldn’t find any difference between Zhang Tie’s body-separation skill and his original body at all. Each time, when they met a difficult pass or section, Zhang Tie would release his substitute. By luring those deities’ battle puppets out of that region at the cost of one substitute, Zhang Tei could create favorable conditions for him and Tang Mei to pass there.

Without the sacrifice of Zhang Tie’s substitutes, they could never reach here in such a short period even if they had a map of the structure inside Buzhou Mountain.

…

3 days later, Zhang Tie and Tang Mei had reached their peak states as they stood in front of the light curtains of the three portals inside the Instrumental Spirit Palace.

“You mean we could reach Heavens of Light directly through this portal?”

“Right!”

“Hmm, I will release a substitute into it and have it figure out the situation up there. Then, we will negotiate about the countermeasure!”

“Elder brother, your substitute doesn’t need to clash against them. It must figure out the quantity and battle forces of the living fierce deities up there. The two fierce deities with more than 2 immortal chakras are surrounded by a bloody light forever. Given the darkness of the bloody lights, you could judge their concrete battle forces!” Tang Mei warned Zhang Tie with a solemn look.

“If this one doesn’t work, I will use some more substitutes at most!” Zhang Tie nodded. Closely after that, he pointed at his central forehead by finger and shot out a body-separation rune from there. In the blink of an eye, the rune had become another Zhang Tie in front of him.

Zhang Tie and his substitute nodded towards each other. Closely after that, Zhang Tie’s substitute released its protective battle qi and turned around before entering the light curtain by one step.

The bizarre bubble then wrapped Zhang Tie’s substitute and flew upwards as fast as a lightning bolt.

When the bubble broke, it released Zhang Tie’s substitute into the Heavens of Light, which was going to figure out the situation inside Heavens of Light before sacrifice!

Heavens of Light was covered with a glow on its ground. However, the glow was not from fierce deities, but from the pieces of fierce deities’ bodies…

When Zhang Tie entered Heavens of Light, he stepped onto a palm which was giving out a glow.

Nothing else inside Heavens of Light could stand and move except Zhang Tie.

Zhang Tie became petrified…
