When over 200,000 human and demon knights collided against each other, Zhang Tie had already thrown out 7 golden spears.
When the 680 kg golden spear left Zhang Tie’s hand, its speed had already reached 36 times the speed of sound. Additionally, Zhang Tie triggered a master-level cracking rune effect for each spear, which would intensify the spears’ lethality. As a result, 7 earth demon knights had been blown up by Zhang Tie before the two armies crashed each other…
Earth knights’ protective battle qis and physical strength were to 70 billion Joule energy what common fighters were to Zhang Tie’s bolts-in-palm.
Such lethality was definitely two times greater than that when Zhang Tie penetrated through the battle formation of demon knights using his Devouring Dragon. Additionally, the effective range of his kinetic strike could reach over 10,000 m away. Even earth demon knights could be killed immediately. Divine dominator’s battle strength made many demon knights hopeless.
Heavenly demon knights’ siege failed at once. Because each of 7 heavenly human knights had already intercepted a heavenly demon knight at battlefield respectively after Zuoqiu Mingyue blocked Sagus, including Ning Taisheng. The combats between 7 groups of heavenly knights instantly carried out at tens of thousands of meters high in the air, battering the clouds and cleaning them all…
There were 9 heavenly demon knights. With the death of Antorier and the other 7 heavenly demon knights being intercepted by 7 heavenly human knights respectively, a heavenly iron-armored demon knight was still aiming at Zhang Tie and catching up with him as if it still wanted to intercept Zhang Tie.
However, the fact proved that a heavenly iron-armored demon knight could never catch up with a divine dominator unless it was dreaming.
Although that heavenly demon knight didn’t give up catching up with Zhang Tie, after some empty strikes, it had lagged far behind Zhang Tie.
After promoting to a shadow knight, Zhang Tie could manipulate water. However, water accounted for over 70% of the human body. Therefore, Zhang Tie could directly manipulate his body in flight using the ability of divine dominator, which brought him a flight speed and flexibility far greater than that brought by metal equipment and Chaos. In this case, Zhang Tie could really move freely in the air no matter how he would like to use his instinct in the ability of divine dominator.
Zhang Tie had already exerted his utmost effort, almost exposing all of his trump cards.
At this moment, Zhang Tie only had one firm belief——as long as he killed one more demon knight, he would make Taixia knights a bit more relaxed and survive more of them in the war.
After exposing his ability as a divine dominator, Zhang Tie immediately displayed his terrifying lethality to demon knights like a shark breaking into a shoal of sardines.
Zhang Tie sped up towards a shadow wing demon knight at the speed of 24 times the speed of sound. Before that shadow wing demon knight made any response, Zhang Tie’s 18.8-ton rod had already bombarded the shadow wing demon knight, causing a loud sound “boom…”.
The shadow wing demon knight could only reach up to the speed of sound in air, which was as slow as a crawling tortoise compared to Zhang Tie. The shadow wing demon knight couldn’t even escape from Zhang Tie’s strike at such a low speed.
The kinetic energy carried by Zhang Tie’s huge rod could even break a heavenly demon knight’s protective battle qi and severely wound the latter, not to mention the protective battle qi of a shadow demon knight. As shadow demon knight’s protective battle qi and anti-striking capacity were weaker than that of heavenly demon knights, the shadow wing demon knight was destined to die facing the fatal kinetic strike.
When the impact wave started to spread over at a super high speed, the shadow wing demon knight was instantly broken into pieces.
Zhang Tie killed another shadow demon knight.
At the same time, the Devouring Dragon flashed out of Zhang Tie’s sleeve. After being applied with a “cracking” effect, the sword shot out from Zhang Tie’s side and torn two black iron demon knights and one earth demon knight into pieces over 2,000 m away as fast as a lightning bolt in the void…
This was not a part of swordsmanship, but the same kinetic strike.
At the speed of 8,221 m/s, the Devouring Dragon weighing 1,700 kg carried almost 100 million Joule energy, which was even greater than that of golden spears. However, being limited to Zhang Tie’s control ability as a divine dominator, its striking distance couldn’t reach more than 10,000 m, unlike golden spears. Even so, Devouring Dragon could also make all the black iron demon knights and earth demon knights hopeless within 2,000 m.
With Zhang Tie’s manipulation, Devouring Demon was more precise for the sword than Devouring Dragon.
Devouring Dragon swam around Zhang Tie within 2,000 m like a lightning bolt, causing a blood wind and rain…
Soon after killing a shadow demon knight, Zhang Tie had targeted at another one, which was a shadow iron-armored demon knight as he flew towards the latter.
As Zhang Tie flew forward, he got golden spears out of nowhere and threw them one after another, killing earth demon knights and black iron demon knights within 10,000 m.
Zhang Tie was not flying in a straight line; instead, he chose a route that could maximize his lethality as a divine dominator.
At this moment, Zhang Tie had completely become a terrifying all-around triple battle strength output platform——The scope of the kinetic strike above 700 billion Joule energy of his huge rod within 500 m, the scope of kinetic strike above 100 billion Joule energy of his Devouring Dragon between 500 m and 3,000 m and the scope of kinetic strike about 70 billion Joule energy of his golden spears between 3,000 m and 10,000 m.
Wherever Zhang Tie passed by, demon knights would collapse and fall like tree leaves in the sky. Only after a short while, Zhang Tie had killed over 100 demon knights.
Today, those who had no insight about the ability of a divine dominator finally understood why divine dominator was called the knight of knights.
On one hand, such a killing spree skyrocketed the morale of Taixia knights; on the other hand, it made those heavenly demon knights and Sagus, who was fighting Zuoqiu Mingyue, extremely furious.
Sagus finally realized that it had made a mistake——it underestimated Zhang Tie’s terrifying battle strength as a divine dominator and his trickery once again.
Even Fairy Sea King might show the white feather to him given their deterrent force to demon knights below heavenly. At least Fairy Sea King didn’t use such terrifying golden spears or carry out such terrifying kinetic strikes in close combat. Additionally, Fairy Sea King was already a heavenly knight when he killed a heavenly demon knight. However, Zhang Tie had just promoted to a shadow knight today.
Facing such a terrifying divine dominator, demon knights below heavenly would escape far away from him and better not enter Zhang Tie’s vision. Those who couldn’t escape far away could only form a battle formation for the sake of their safety. As for Zhang Tie, such a frontline operation lasting over 600 miles composed of over 100,000 demon knights was nothing different than having him approach a holocaust.
Even though Sagus realized the mistake that it had made, it had to sustain the great loss. In this case, if the frontline operation of demon knights contracted, Taixia knights would be able to exterminate the wing demon corps in the sky.
Zhang Tie was the largest variable on Taixia’s side in this large-scale battle. All the failures that demons sustained today were caused by this person.
‘No matter what, Zhang Tie has to die today…’
At this moment, Sagus had determined his mind to kill Zhang Tie.
…
When being aimed by Zhang Tie and seeing Zhang Tie speeding up towards it, that shadow demon knight was covered with goosebumps in a split second as it started to exert its utmost effort to escape away from Zhang Tie’s aim and killing intent. At the same time, a huge night owl-shaped virtual image appeared over that shadow demon knight, which was giving out glow as if it caught fire. The shadow demon knight started to escape at the speed of 2 times the speed of sound.
Demon knights were not afraid of death; however, it didn’t mean that all the demon knights hoped to be killed, especially by a human knight who had much greater battle strength than them. On the battlefield, it was almost a must for all the low-level demon knights to escape from high-level human knights’ chase and aim. It was not shameful to do that but a skill for battle and survival on the battlefield. Human knights and demon knights would be executed if they escaped from the strike of same-level opposite knights; however, those who escaped from higher level opposite knights would not be executed.
Whereas, no matter how hard the shadow demon knight struggled, its speed couldn’t even reach 1/10 of Zhang Tie’s current speed.
Zhang Tie chased all the way after that shadow demon knight, leaving broken pieces and blood of demon knights over the sky.
Watching Zhang Tie approaching it, the burning virtual image launched a strike towards Zhang Tie.
Of course, its strike was very powerful for common human knights; however, it was defused by the shields and the protective sword wind flying around Zhang Tie.
Zhang Tie seemed to feel the hopeless look on the bizarre face of that night owl.
‘I might be thinking too much.’ Zhang Tie muttered as he brandished his huge rod…
The escaping virtual image of that shadow demon knight shattered into pieces in a split second, revealing the shadow demon knight’s original look, which was sent flying away while spurting blood from eyes, ears, nostrils and mouth.
Zhang Tie was slightly shocked that he didn’t kill this shadow demon knight. So what?
‘If I couldn’t kill it by my rod immediately, I would try it for the second time. It’s nothing serious for me to have it breathe for a bit longer time…’
Zhang Tie then caught up with that shadow demon knight. In its hopeless and mad look, Zhang Tie brandished his rod for the second time without demur, collapsing its counterattack in an overwhelming manner and breaking its body into pieces…
This one was the 5th shadow demon knight that Zhang Tie killed on the battlefield today.
After losing 2 shadow demon knights and over 100 black iron and earth demon knights, demon knights finally made a response to it——batches of demon knights started to disengage from Taixia knights and form battle formations. At the same time, ground demon forces started to retreat.
More and more demon knights started to escape in all directions like escaping from the God of Death as long as they saw Zhang Tie flying towards them from over 60 miles away…
At this moment, a powerful battle qi strike approached Zhang Tie from his back. Needless to look back, Zhang Tie had known that the same heavenly demon knight had been about 10,000 m away from him once again. However, such a strike didn’t have any effect except for warning him to keep a distance from it.
When the heavenly demon knight blocked Zhang Tie from returning after having a killing spree in the army of demon knights, it approached Zhang Tie rapidly with the second round of off-hand strike…
At this moment, a corps of almost 100,000 wing demons appeared on the left lower of Zhang Tie and flew towards the air zone above Weishui River like a large cloud.
The escaping shadow demon knight had brought Zhang Tie to the left flank of the demon army.
Zhang Tie threw a glance at the corps of wing demons before flying towards them without demur.
In a split second, moisture in the air had turned into snowflakes, causing snow within 10,000 m. However, the snowflakes didn’t fall onto the ground, instead, they stayed in the sky and were approaching the corps of wing demons rapidly along with Zhang Tie.
It was pretty cold above Weishui River; additionally, it contained high moisture in the air. What was more, it was snowing here. Therefore, it was too easy for Zhang Tie to manipulate moisture and turn it into snowflakes using the ability of divine dominator.
Zhang Tie just had a try, but he had not imagined that hundreds of millions of crystal snowflakes would appear within 10,000 m the moment he tried it.
With Zhang Tie’s control, hundreds of millions of snowflakes were rotating in the air rapidly. In the blink of an eye, Zhang Tie had been surrounded by a high-speed snowstorm, where snowflakes could move at a speed over 20 times the speed of sound…
With Zhang Tie’s control, those snowflakes were actually moving at a high speed along the invisible moisture in the air.
With the snowstorm, Zhang Tie broke into the formation of wing demons.
The scenario of living animals being ground at a high-speed meat grinder was similar to how Zhang Tie broke into the corps of wing demons with the snowstorm.
Snowflakes then cut through wing demons at a speed of over 20 times more than the speed of sound like blades.
There were not only a couple of blades but hundreds of millions of blades. The moment one blade disappeared, 2 more appeared; the moment 2 blades disappeared, 4 more appeared. Moisture in the air was the source of those blades, especially in such cold weather.
Each wing demon in the air was cut through by tens of thousands of such blades at the same time…
Even battle-spirit level protective battle qi could only stand a few seconds facing such terrifying snowflakes. Although this snowstorm was nothing serious for knights, it was definitely a call from the depth of hell for those who were below knights.
Could wing demons move faster than Zhang Tie? Of course not.
…
Red snowflakes, stinky flesh and blood fell onto the ground…
Only after a short while, the entire corps of wing demon had disappeared in the sky. Over hundreds of square miles of land was covered with black-red tint in the white snow. Looking at it from afar, people would feel goosebumps all over…
Within hundreds of miles, not a single wing demon dared approach Zhang Tie anymore.
When Zhang Tie exterminated the entire corps of wing demons, he didn’t know how great of a shock did he bring to the other knights. To be honest, even Zhang Tie himself was shocked by his terrifying ability as a divine dominator. He just wanted to have a try; he didn’t imagine that he could get such an amazing effect with the coordination of his great spiritual energy, his ability to manipulate water as a divine dominator and such snowy weather.
The heavenly demon knight had stopped chasing after Zhang Tie and ascended. Almost at the same time, a heavenly demon knight gave a greater strike to Ning Taisheng, sending him flying backward. So did another heavenly demon knight do it to a heavenly human knight. In a split second, the 3 heavenly demon knights had formed a 3-in-1 battle formation. When Sagus was fighting Zuoqiu Mingyue, they immediately joined the battle between two sage-level knights, emancipating Sagus from the battle in a split second.
Zuoqiu Mingyue changed his face instantly as this shift was really out of his imagination.
However, Zuoqiu Mingyue soon understood Sagus’ intention.
As for a sage-level powerhouse, it could do a lot of things in a millisecond.
After emancipating itself from the battle with Zuoqiu Mingyue, Sagus aimed at Zhang Tie in a split second as it sped up towards Zhang Tie.
The 3-in-1 battle formation composed of three heavenly demon knights restricted Zuoqiu Mingyue for about 10 seconds. After that, Zuoqiu Mingyue gave out much brighter moonlight suddenly, sending the three heavenly demon knights flying backward, spurting out blood.
10 seconds were enough for Sagus to move far away from Zuoqiu Mingyue.
…
Almost the moment Sagus sped up towards him, Zhang Tie became alert at once. After casually throwing out a golden spear to kill another black iron demon knight over 7,000 m away, Zhang Tie immediately sped up towards Sagus at his utmost effort.
Sagus moved even faster than that when he chased after Zhang Tie last time.
Almost in a split second, Sagus had approached 30 miles behind Zhang Tie.
At this moment, a pitch-dark item that seemed to be able to absorb all the surrounding light and destroy everything with almost 1 meter in diameter suddenly appeared in Sagus’ hand.
At the sight of this item, Zuoqiu Mingyue cried out in alarm as he became stagnated, “It’s thunder of nirvana, watch out, Zhang Tie…”
“Previously, I planned to use it to deal with you. It seems that he would enjoy it ahead of you…” Sagus fleered while a drop of blood flew out of its finger and melted with that terrifying, destructive black ball. After that, he pointed at Zhang Tie, sending the black ball flying towards Zhang Tie.
…
The moment the black ball left Sagus’ hand, Zhang Tie’s spiritual energy had blown out. In a split second, Zhang Tie had felt that the connection between him and Castle of Black Iron was cut off by that black ball. There seemed to be an invisible line between that black ball and Zhang Tie. Being tightly bound by that invisible line, Zhang Tie couldn’t return to Castle of Black Iron, causing goosebumps over his scalp.
At the clutch time, the bizarre feeling that time was about to stop occurred to Zhang Tie’s mind once again.
At this moment, all the sounds in the world became blurry. Even Zuoqiu Mingyue’s sound carried a bizarre, long resonance as if someone was talking in his sleep by his ears. Zhang Tie couldn’t sense any human or demon knight, even the sky and the earth.
He only sensed a frightening item approaching him at a high speed.
That item moved much faster than him.
In a split second, that item had come to Zhang Tie’s front.
The first shield collapsed and disappeared…
The second shield collapsed and disappeared…
The third shield collapsed and disappeared…
The fourth shield collapsed and disappeared…
The fifth shield collapsed and disappeared…
The Devouring Sword was destroyed…
The protective sword wind was destroyed immediately like an egg under a 10,000-ton hydro press…
Zhang Tie goggled and roared as he brandished his huge rod…
The huge rod was destroyed…
Zhang Tie’s hands instantly broke into hundreds of pieces due to great anti-vibration, spurting blood…
Zhang Tie had not felt being so close to death. After being aimed by that item, Zhang Tie found that he couldn’t even return to Castle of Black Iron…
However, Zhang Tie was not reconciled to that. He roared as his spiritual energy in mind boiled and exploded.
A thick ice wall appeared between Zhang Tie and that black ball. The molecules and crystals in the ice wall were compressed to the extreme, causing the ice wall as irresistible as steel.
The ice wall was destroyed.
7 ice walls were destroyed constantly.
The black ball finally touched Zhang Tie’s protective battle qi.
The moment Zhang Tie’s protective battle qi touched the black ball, he felt that the connection between his awareness and Castle of Black Iron had recovered.
In the last moment, Zhang Tie could only transfer the terrifying energy carried by that black ball into the Abyss of Elements of Castle of Black Iron…
“Hubby…” A mournful yet familiar sound subtly drifted into Zhang Tie’s ears.
‘My life is as aromatic as spirit. knights’ brilliance is like that of a flower;’
‘If I were drunk, I would have a dream. So what even if it withered!’
This was the last thought in Zhang Tie’s mind. When numerous faces flashed across Zhang Tie’s mind, Zhang Tie closed his eyes calmly as if he was dreaming.
A light blew out at the bank of Weishui River, brightly lighting the sky and the ground over 6,000 miles, causing it to be as white as daytime…
