Chapter 1086: Preaching Secret Skills Through Enlightenment

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

Since they had just taken a round in the underground space for less than 1 hour, they didn't make any great achievement. At most, they had been familiar with the location, the size and the surrounding environment of the bloody sea. Additionally, their curiosities were satisfied.

Of course, Zhang Tie was an exception.

When Zhang Tie exited the hole, his mentality had been utterly different than that when he entered it. However, Zhang Tie didn't reveal any abnormal expression as if he had discovered nothing.

The rain was heavier. Zhang Tie's protective battle qi isolated his body from rainwater once again. He looked up at the cloudy sky as he felt a bit chilly. That golden airboat had already left, leaving Iron-Dragon Airboat suspending alone in Pingsha Valley.

"Let's go back to the airboat, there's nothing to look at here!" Zhang Tie waved his hand as he walked towards the airboat with all the others.

After boarding the airboat, everybody gathered in the command module. Zhang Tie had the airboat fly towards Huian City.

Because of the event in Zhongzhou Province, the name of Huian City, a small city, spread over Taixia Country.

Huian City was over 50 miles away in the south of Pingsha Valley. It only took the airboat a few minutes to arrive at Huian City from Pingsha Valley.

The large areas of farmlands outside Huian City entered their vision first.

The golden wheat in those farmlands had already been messy and rotten in the rainy season after missing the optimal reaping opportunity. Very few people could be seen in the farmlands and the surrounding villages. It was dead silence and coldness everywhere.

When they approached Huian City, Zhang Tie had the airboat slow down and decline before slowly flying hundreds of meters over Huian City.

From the airboat, they could see that the entire Huian City was covered by a dead atmosphere in the rain in naked eyes; instead of using the high-power optical imaging device. The entire city was ruined. Many buildings had been burned, leaving large areas of damaged buildings and charred traces. It seemed that nobody lived in Huian City anymore. There was only a military camp of about 10,000 people outside the city.

Although it was raining, soldiers of Taixia Country were still arranging something in the ruins.

Watching such a giant airboat flying over here, those soldiers didn't feel strange about it at all. Besides someone who looked up at the airboat, all the others just minded their own businesses.

The major's mansion of Huian City had been ruined. Only a half-burned flag was tightly sticking to the flagpole like a dead fish that was scooped out of the water. If not the flagpole and the flag, Zhang Tie's team could almost not identify that the ruins were the mansion of the former major of Huian City, who was the first major who swore to die with the city in Taixia Country in this holy war.

In Waii Subcontinent, Zhang Tie had seen too many perished cities. However, it was his disciples' first time to see a perished city in Taixia Country. It was not in the remote areas, but in Zhongzhou Province, one of the 9 immortal provinces in Xuanyuan Hill.

It was a time-honored city in Zhongzhou Province which abounded in good liquor; instead of the small villages like Xujia Village.

In the north of Huian City, there were dense tombs within a few square miles. After flying over that graveyard, they could see a lot of rotten joss paper on the top of those tombs...

The terrifying scene in Huian City caused a great mental impact on many people in the command module, including Bai Suxian. None of them looked good.

"What do you think at the sight of this scene?" Zhang Tie asked his disciples after being silent for a while.

The 121 disciples threw a glance at each other before moving their eyes onto Liu Xing at the same time.

"Master, after going to Pingsha Valley and coming to Huian City, I think we all feel sad and shocked; meanwhile, we have a sense of crisis. Nobody has imagined that cities in Taixia Country could encounter such a catastrophe at the cost of so many lives!" Liu Xing replied in a low volume, which was also what the other disciples thought about.

"Sense of crisis. You're right. I want to show you the crises and dark forces in the prosperity of Taixia Country. You need to see the possible aftermath of wars and catastrophes that might happen in Taixia Country in the future!" Zhang Tie glanced at his disciples one after another solemnly before saying, "Many people among you come from major clans which were protected by knight-level powerhouses. Don't think that you and your clans won't experience what you see now. Listen, many countries and major clans in other subcontinents have perished, causing numerous nobles. In the Earth-elements Realm, over 1,000 knights would be killed and wounded in one battle between human knights and demon knights. Sometimes, the lives of earth knights are like candlelight swaying in the wind. Have you thought about how to survive such a chaotic world? Have you thought about how to survive yourselves and protect your beloved ones when overwhelming enemies rush towards you one day?"

Hearing Zhang Tie's words, some disciples looked firm and persistent; some were in meditation; some were clenching their fists.

If he told these words to his disciples 1 month ago in Fire Dragon Bounty Territory, his disciples might not have any true feeling about that. However, after seeing the tragedies in Xujia Village and Huian City and fighting the bloody figures, they all knew how terrifying and brutal were bloody figures. Everybody was move inside.

"Battle strength, only battle strength; precisely, only your punches, swords and sabers are your greatest reliance in the chaotic world!" Zhang Tie answered before anyone's reply, "Your family background and wealth could not guarantee your safety when your enemy waves his saber towards your head. Neither would you be more fortunate than others. Conversely, because of your family background and wealth, your enemy might want to kill you as soon as possible. Under such circumstances, you could only rely on your own punch, saber and sword. Don't think that your clans and parents would protect you forever. As a normal person, a disciple who could join Iron-Dragon Sect fortunately, from today on, you should think about how could you protect your parents and relatives. As long as you could bear hardships and be persistent, I will preach all the secret skills in "Fire Dragon Sutra" to you!"

When Zhang Tie's disciples were still thinking about Zhang Tie's words, Zhang Tie implied that he didn't go back on his word through direct action.

"Liu Xing" Zhang Tie asked in a muffled voice.

"Here I am, Master!" Liu Xing cupped his hands and moved one step forward.

"After a short while, you follow me in my cultivation room. I will officially preach the secret skills in "Fire Dragon Sutra" to you today!"

All the other disciples were shocked as they watched Liu Xing with extremely admiring looks.

Liu Xing became stunned at first as if he didn't believe that he could touch such a marquis-level classic which numerous major clans were dreaming for at this moment. However, given the admirable looks of all the surrounding people and the looks of Zhao Bing, Wu Yinhui and the other 4 black-armored fighters, Liu Xing knew that he didn't mishear it. In a split second, Liu Xing blushed as he took a deep breath and replied in the muffled voice, "Yes, master!"

Even though Liu Xing was always calm, his voice trembled a bit at this moment.

"After that, this master will enter cultivation for a few days. Your master uncle Bai will take charge of everything in the airboat!"

As Bai Suxian had not married Zhang Tie, it was improper for him to call her Mrs. Master Bai. Otherwise, it would incur jokes. He should consider the reputations of Lord Guangnan's Mansion and princess Bai Suxian. However, as a person who used to stay with Zhang Tie, Bai Suxian was destined to be influential in Iron-Dragon Sect one day. Additionally, she was a knight. Therefore, she deserved to be an outstanding elder and was qualified to be called Master Uncle Bai. All the sects in Taixia Country preferred male appellations. Even prestigious females in sects could only be called Master Uncle instead of Master Aunt by the juniors. Of course, the appellation Mrs. Master was an exception because she was their master's wife.

Bai Suxian threw a glance at Zhang Tie as she didn't know what trick Zhang Tie played. She didn't understand why Zhang Tie suddenly wanted to enter cultivation. According to the plan, after leaving Pingsha Valley, they should visit Gold and Power Market and Xuanyuan Hill.

"I will tell you about the reason after a short while!" Zhang Tie's voice entered Bai Suxian's ears secretly when the latter was thinking about the reason. After hearing that, Bai Suxian revealed a tender smile towards Zhang Tie. Whatever, she had already been very happy when Zhang Tie handed the airboat and these disciples to her when he was busy. This was what a master's wife should do.

"Well, adjournment. The cultivation facilities on the airboat are well matched. Don't forget about cultivation!" Zhang Tie waved his hand towards his disciples, letting them leave, except for Liu Xing.
