Chapter 1784: Zhang Tie’s Achievement Through Blackmail

On April 1st, Zhang Tie spent the whole day in his backroom for cultivation.

As it was the first day of April, the businessmen in Motian Realm liked it pretty much; so did Zhang Tie. On the first day of each month, Zhang Tie would always be thrilled just like going to the fair. This day, Zhang Tie could enter Castle of Black Iron and use all of his space-teleportation equipment. He could eat fruits that grew on the small tree too.

There were still fruits of redemption from the gratitude of gulf shrimps, hairy shells and earthworms as usual. Each time Zhang Tie ate these fruits, his overall strength would enhance accordingly. Although it might be not too evident per time, the quantitative change led to qualitative change. Zhang Tie had known this fact since young. Therefore, he didn’t ignore these fruits; nor would he waste them. As long as there were fruits on the small tree, he would definitely take them all.

When Zhang Tie achieved a 1/2 immortal strength body, he ran out of the fruits of redemption from golden uangs. Since then, he could only get merit value by having people release golden uangs in Taixia Country.

If he were in Taixia Country or in peaceful times, Zhang Tie might travel across the world to look for the other living beings which could help him acquire complete immortal strength body. However, in Motian Realm, time became a luxury for Zhang Tie. Zhang Tie could only spend all the available time in cultivation which could bring him predictable achievements or cope with emergencies.

Eating fruits could bring Zhang Tie predictable achievements. Additionally, the preoccupation was to study Golden-Soul Rune Virus. Therefore, Zhang Tie took the metal gourd out of Grand Justice Qian’s space-teleportation equipment after eating all the fruits on the small tree and started to study the Golden-Soul Rune Virus inside the gourd.

There were 17 Golden-Soul Rune Virus inside the metal gourd in the shape of ball.

Like 17 fireflies in the dark, the 17 Golden-Soul Rune Virus were floating inside the gourd quietly. 13 of them could control fierce immortal generals, 3 of them could control earth immortal generals while the rest one was used for controlling water immortal general. The quantities and proportion were similar to the number of immortal generals on different levels of some small sects or clans. This also proved Zhang Tie’s judgment, namely these Golden-Soul Rune Virus were indeed used for the next target of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace.

After killing Grand Justice Qian and getting the Golden-Soul Rune Virus, it was equal to saving some immortal generals indirectly.

After consuming a ball of Golden-Soul Rune Virus, with his water-like spiritual energy, Zhang Tie soon mastered the function and usage of that black gourd which contained Golden-Soul Rune Virus and some features of Golden-Soul Rune Virus based on his expertise on runes.

Undoubtedly, that black gourd was used to store and release Golden-Soul Rune Virus. Its function was similar to the fresh-keeping box of Golden-Soul Rune Virus and the “crossbow” which could fire Golden-Soul Rune Virus.

Soon after being produced, Golden-Soul Rune Virus had to be put in this black gourd. Otherwise, if they were exposed in the air for half an hour, they would dissipate themselves.

It was very simple to release Golden-Soul Rune Virus. As long as he took off its lid, penetrated through this gourd using his spiritual energy and positioned his target, he would be able to fire the Golden-Soul Rune Virus.

The Golden-Soul Rune Virus could be fired at over 2,000 m per second. Additionally, Golden-Soul Rune Virus on different levels could respond to different chakras. Within 1,000 m, common immortal generals could barely escape from Golden-Soul Rune Virus.

The runes on the surface of the black gourd were similar to those runes of Golden-Soul Rune Virus. After studying it for a day, Zhang Tie only learned the general principles and secrets of some simple runes on the surface of the black gourd. As for the constitution and manufacturing of Golden-Soul Rune Virus, it was out of Zhang Tie’s ability and cognitive level. Zhang Tie confirmed that it was a rune system that he had never seen before. The one who could produce Golden-Soul Rune Virus was definitely a top expert of runes across Motian Realm.

Additionally, Zhang Tie discovered that one of the materials of the black gourd was Tigermarrow metal, a rare metal in Motian Realm. According to Zhang Tie, this metal was exclusive to Whitetiger Region, which belonged to Immortalsword Mountain Villa. All the Tigermarrow metal that was produced in Immortalsword Mountain Villa were sold at auction in public. All the trades were recorded in Immortalsword Mountain Villa.

Perhaps Zhang Tie could discover a bit of background of that “His Majesty” or Dark Emperor Immortal Palace through Tigermarrow metal and the top expertise in runes…

However, Zhang Tie couldn’t expose this intelligence to the public. He only expected Force Emperor Immortal Palace or Star Emperor Immortal Palace to get the same black gourd in Si Clan’s castle and those items in the sacrificial altar so that the two immortal palaces could investigate it through these clues. ‘I alone could really not endure any hardships in Motian Realm. It would be great as long as I know it. I prefer to not rush to the frontline.’

Zhang Tie spent the whole day in eating fruits and studying the black gourd and Golden-Soul Rune Virus…

Although Zhang Tie stayed in his backroom, he was crystal clear about what would happen and what great shock would be aroused outside. Because, on the same day, according to his arrangement, a grand ceremony was held in an Immortal Wind Palace of Dragon Emperor City for the first trade between Emperor NvWa’s Palace and Zhang Tie himself. On-site, Zhang Tie especially told Hong Yukun to display all the element crystals and Dragon Emperor Medicament to the public. The piles of 100,000 shiny element crystals and 100,000 brilliant vials of Dragon Emperor Medicament were absolutely shocking.

Everyone across Dragon Emperor City had known the name of Dragon Emperor Medicament on that day.

As for Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace which was urgently demanding element crystals, the shock caused by Dragon Emperor Medicament became especially great.

This was what Zhang Tie wanted…

At noon of April 2nd, Zhang Tie left his backroom. As was predicted by him, as long as Dragon Emperor Medicament was exposed to the public, all the 7 elders and 4 presidents of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace had been thrilled as they all urged to see Zhang Tie tomorrow. After receiving Zhang Tie’s order, Leng Manxue just noticed Zhang Tie by crystal plate; instead of calling him out of there by an emergency means. Therefore, Zhang Tie didn’t come out until one day later.

Zhang Tie instantly caught sight of Leng Manxue who was waiting for him outside Jiaotai Palace the moment he exited there.

“The envoy from Star Emperor Immortal Palace has already arrived at Dragon Emperor City this morning. He wanted to see Your Majesty!”

Leng Manxue’s news shocked Zhang Tie slightly as he had not imagined that the envoy of Star Emperor Immortal Palace could arrive here when he was ready to solve the internal problem facing Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace by finding those elders who were moles of Dark Emperor Immortal Palace.

As he walked towards Yangxin Palace, Zhang Tie asked Leng Manxue, “Who’s that envoy?”

“Yuan Lang!”

“Where’s he?”

“He’s still waiting for Your Majesty outside the Forbidden City!”

“Did he come here alone?”

“He came here with some subordinates who carried a huge iron safe!”

“Only one?” Zhang Tie slightly frowned. ‘Star Emperor Immortal Palace really made a fast response. But what do they mean by only one huge iron safe?’ Zhang Tie then told Leng Manxue, “Bring him in Yangxin Palace…”

“What about the elders and presidents…”

“Haha, our internal affair is not that urgent. Inform them to wait until the envoy of Star Emperor Immortal Palace leaves here!”

“Yes, sir!”

…

After a few minutes, Zhang Tie saw Yuan Lang in Yangxin Palace again.

This envoy was still kind and elegant. At the sight of Yuan Lang, Zhang Tie had to admit that this immortal general of Star Emperor Immortal palace carried the halos of affinity. After getting acquainted with him, Zhang Tie could barely lose his temper to him.

Yuan Lang entered Yangxin Palace himself as his subordinates were waiting outside the palace.

Yuan Lang smiled brilliantly the moment he entered Yangxin Palace. He then bowed towards Zhang Tie with full respect, saying, “My regards to you, Your Majesty!”

“It’s fine, take a seat!” Zhang Tie replied as he waved his hand. Yuan Lang then took a seat elegantly and calmly.

“Your Majesty, you look brilliant. You must have made a great improvement in cultivation base. I feel so happy for you. I admire you so much!”

“Let’s come straight to the point. How does His Majesty Star Emperor plan to explain it to me, to go against Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace or to compensate me for that?” Zhang Tie asked calmly.

“Ahem… ahem… it should be a misunderstanding. As the last batch of goods was exceptional, His Majesty Star Emperor just wanted to ensure the quality. Unexpectedly, it aroused such a misunderstanding. His Majesty Star Emperor especially told me to apologize to Your Majesty on behalf of him…” Yuan Lang said as he stood up and bowed towards Zhang Tie again.

“Apologize?” Zhang Tie slightly turned cold as he continued, “Do you think that His Majesty Star Emperor could fob off such a word on me?”

“Of course not. His Majesty Star Emperor especially sent me to give such compensation to you, a demon fire immortal general. I think it could represent the sincerity of Star Emperor Immortal Palace to Your Majesty!”

Despite a fire immortal general, also a semi-sage level knight didn’t meet Zhang Tie’s requirement, with its complete fire chakra, Zhang Tie felt that he could promote to four change realm of heavenly knight steadily.

——This was indeed a precious gift. If Zhang Tie was asking for an exorbitant price, Star Emperor Immortal Palace was providing a reasonable counter-offer.

The immortal emperor was indeed not easily frightened, even though Zhang Tie used Grand Dragon Emperor as his shield.

However, as Zhang Tie was just blackmailing Star Emperor with the power of the Dragon Emperor, he didn’t lose his outlay no matter what. If Star Emperor Immortal Palace went against Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace, Zhang Tie would worry about that. Actually, Zhang Tie had been so thrilled about this demon fire immortal general that he almost whistled.

With the platform of Dragon Emperor Immortal Palace and the identity of Dragon Emperor, Zhang Tie could indeed rapidly improve his battle force. If it were in Taixia Country, he could never enjoy such a great treatment——get demon immortal generals for free from an immortal emperor the moment he opened his mouth. In Taixia Country, even the people of the three top sects could not dream about that. If it were in Taixia Country, he could never ask Meng Shidao, a semi-sage level knight to wait for his refinement.

‘My decision is indeed correct.’

Feeling happy, of course, Zhang Tie wouldn’t look bad…
