Castle of Black Iron

Zhang Tie was awakened by Heller’s words from behind. Looking down at the disorderly yet mysterious footprints, Zhang Tie wondered how could he create such a powerful battle skill only by looking at a small grass for a few seconds with the consciousness of universal laws.

Even though being a shadow knight with the gnosis of One Step, One Scenery , Zhang Tie could never create such a powerful battle skill so easily. Otherwise, such battle skills would not count anymore.

With the effect of consciousness of universal laws, Zhang Tie instantly sensed the wisdom of small grass and the strength of some rules followed by the small grass.

After gazing at the common small grass quietly for quite a while, Zhang Tie let out a sigh as he said, “I will call it Vigorous Grass Gait…”

“There’s a Hua line called strong wind knows the ability of vigorous grass. Good name!” Heller commented.

Zhang Tie turned around as he asked, “Could all the sage-level knights sense and access to such a realm whenever they want?’

At the same time, Zhang Tie was wondering about the frightening ability of sage-level knights.

After hearing Zhang Tie’s question, Heller shook his head decisively as he said, “Sage-level knights couldn’t access to such a realm whenever they want. This realm is not subjective to sage-level knights; on the contrary, this realm creates sage-level knights!”

“If we divide the universal laws that could be sensed by the consciousness of universal laws into different classes, a semi-sage knight could sense the power of the realm in consistence with class I rules after forming earth chakra, water chakra, wind chakra and fire chakra in some circumstances; after mastering the power of realm, semi-sage knights would promote to sage-level knights. However, the power of the realm is just one reflection of class I rules. The rule of the realm is just a start from where powers enter a higher realm of cultivation. Before this, all the cultivation is about material and elements, lighting surging points or forming chakras; after promoting to a sage knight, all the cultivation would be comprehension, application and sublimation of spiritual energy and rules. Earlier cultivation process works as a foundation for later cultivation. Later cultivation is the root of power. Castle Lord would sense it when you promote to sage-level knights…”

“What are the names of realms above sage-level knight?”

With a wink, Heller said, “The realms above sage-level knights are grade I, II, III, IV. Castle Lord, the name of the realm doesn’t count. What’s important is whether it exists or not. Because the same thing has different names among different human races and carries different meanings in different regions and periods. As long as Castle Lord could take care of yourself, you would know it sooner or later!”

“Will my King Roc Sutra still be available after I promote to a sage-level knight?”

“Castle Lord would understand it…”

Realizing that he couldn’t get any secrets about it from Heller anymore, Zhang Tie shook his head silently. However, he made a comparison between the consciousness of knights and the consciousness of universal laws. Zhang Tie found that the consciousness of knights basically improved one’s perceptive ability about “superficial things”; however, the consciousness of universal laws could get the “root” behind “superficial things”. The first told him what was happening while the second told him the reason. The latter was the real foundation and source of power of powers.

When he thought about his current situation, Zhang Tie revealed a bitter smile. After the fight at the bank of Weishui River, he couldn’t use his spiritual energy and battle qi. However, he gained consciousness of universal laws as compensation. What you lose on the wings you get back on the roundabouts.

He lost battle strength above knight level; however, he acquired the ability to observe the essence of things that even sage-level knights longed for. Zhang Tie wondered whether such an exchange is worthwhile or not.

Vigorous Grass Gait originated from his perception and his experience in fights. Whereas, the secrets carried by Vigorous Grass Gait actually couldn’t match that of class I rules which only sage-level knights could understand. It was just a bit like the class I rules.

“I’m not a genius. Nevertheless, after taking this fruit, I feel that I might be able to pretend to be a genius from now on…’

“Castle Lord, you’ve not enjoyed the scenery in Castle of Black Iron for a long time. Two months ago, when you were in a coma, I had just accomplished a large-scale topographic expansion. What do you think about that?” Heller moved one step forward and came to Zhang Tie’s side as he pointed at the scenery outside the Immortal Mountain and told Zhang Tie satisfactorily.

After hearing Heller’s words, Zhang Tie fixated onto the other places outside the Immortal Mountain.

The Palace Tree was on the highest range in Castle of Black Iron, from where, Zhang Tie could see clearly the entire space.

Zhang Tie could still use his lotus flower eyes, even though he could barely run his spiritual energy in the mind sea. Therefore, he could see everything clearly inside Castle of Black Iron.

After over 2 years, even Zhang Tie felt a bit strange about the layout of Castle of Black Iron especially after the latest renovation carried out by Heller.

Zhang Tie looked in the far as he found that the land area in Castle of Black Iron had covered 600,000 square miles. The undulating ranges and dense woods contained almost all the plants that could be found in the real world. The vigorous growth of these plants provided enough reiki for Castle of Black Iron.

Beneath the earth, Zhang Tie saw many karst caves, underground holes, “bubble” space as well as other environments which were suitable to the growth of underground plants…
