Chapter 1206:

A Shocking Phenomenon

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

When the others were paying attention to the boisterous scene on Tiger Embracing Mountain, Zhang Tie was silently watching something in his hand in his Elder’s Pavilion on the top of the mountain behind the Ancestral Shrine Palace…

Zhang Tie was holding two extremely ordinary black mulberry seeds.

Black mulberry seeds were brought by the elder of Demons Killing Valley. The elder told Zhang Tie that Pandora was cultivating a secret method in a hidden place of Demons Killing Valley and couldn’t leave for a period. After knowing that Zhang Tie’s case had been redressed and Zhang Tie had returned to Youzhou Province, Pandora just told the elder to give the two mulberry seeds to Zhang Tie.

It was enough for Zhang Tie.

The black mulberry seeds were picked by Zhang Tie in the wild when he attended the survival training in Wildwolf Valley. He sent them to Pandora at that time. Now that Pandora had people brought back the two black mulberry seeds, it indicated that she was still missing Zhang Tie!

Watching the two black mulberry seeds, Zhang Tie felt like seeing Pandora’s black pupils. Therefore, he was grief-stricken before the start of the ceremony.

It was hard to find beloved ones in the world.

The more successful and the higher position one was, the better he would understand what was most precious.

“Elder, the lucky moment is coming!” Deacon Yu’s voice sounded behind Zhang Tie.

Everything in front of his eyes was like that when he held the first rotating chakra ceremony in Yiyang Mountain. Even Deacon Yu whom Zhang Tie had not seen for a long time seemed to have not changed too much.

Previously, Deacon Yu looked after Zhang Tie in his elder’s pavilion on the top of Bowang Peak of Yiyang Mountain. At this time, she was also following Zhang Tie’s order in his elder’s pavilion on the top of the Tiger Embracing Mountain. After Zhang Tie returned to his clan. His elder’s pavilion in Tiger Embracing Mountain was matched with enough deacons at once. As Zhang Tie was more familiar with Deacon Yu, he let Deacon Yu manage the daily affairs in his elder’s pavilion on Tiger Embracing Mountain.

Now, Zhang Tie’s elder’s pavilion in Tiger Embracing Mountain was different than the pavilions of the other elders of Huaiyuan Palace in the specification. The other elders’ pavilion were three-storey; however, Zhang Tie’s elder’s pavilion was a higher five-storey building as he was the grand elder of Huaiyuan Palace. After being selected as the steward of Zhang Tie’s elder’s pavilion, Deacon Yu had one more source of income and a higher position in the Zhang Clan.

These days, Deacon Yu became the most enviable person among the clan deacons and disciples. After being silent for a long time, this Deacon Yu’s position also skyrocketed together with the return of Elder Mushen. The gate of the premier was opened by Class VII officials. All the other clan disciples and deacons were longing for serving the grand elder.

“Elder…” Deacon Yu moved one step forward and called lightly when she found Zhang Tie was absent-minded at the sight of the black mulberry seeds.

“Can we plant black mulberry seeds in Youzhou Province?” Zhang Tie turned around as he asked Deacon Yu which was out of her imagination. It seemed that Zhang Tie did not care about the coming ceremony at all. When the lucky moment was coming, he was talking about something irrelevant.

“Yes, we can!” Deacon Yu threw a glance at Zhang Tie’s hands with her beautiful eyes before nodding.

“When the spring arrives, plant black mulberry seeds in a garden outside Jinwu Pavilion!” Zhang Tie said as he stood up and passed the two black mulberry seeds to Deacon Yu. “Use them. One year later, when the black mulberry grows mature and bears seeds, you could plant more!”

“Yes!” Deacon Yu received the two black mulberry seeds from Zhang Tie carefully.

Black mulberry was not a precious plant. Its leaf was not beautiful; its flower was average; therefore, major clans wouldn’t plant black mulberry at all. Only rural farmers might plant some in their own courtyards or around their houses for watching head with the molar black mulberry seeds instead of appreciative purpose.

However, Zhang Tie liked black mulberry seeds. If Zhang Tie wanted to plant them, even if he ordered to replace all the trees over Tiger Embracing Mountain with black mulberry seeds, nobody in Huaiyuan Palace dared say no.

“Kuang…”, a melodious and loud bell ring drifted from the bell tower on the highest place of Tiger Embracing Mountain. Along with this bell ring, all the other bells aross Yanghe Prefecture rang at the same moment.

The moment the bell rang, no other sound across Tiger Embracing Mountain could be heard anymore.

The bell ring indicated that the lucky moment had arrived and the ceremony started officially.

“Let’s go!” Zhang Tie waved his hand as he strode out of the gate of the elder’s pavilion.

The general process of this ceremony was similar to that of his first rotating chakra ceremony. Besides being short of the link of “Selecting Character by Rotating the Chakra”, this ceremony was much grander than the first one in all aspects.

Zhang Tie was still wearing a violet gold crown which indicated a good luck in battle strength. However, compared to that in the first time, this violet-gold crown was greatly different in specification and pattern. When he was a black iron knight, his crown was 23 cm in height; when he promoted to an earth knight, his crown was 30 cm in height. Additionally, the number of bars on his crown also increased from 1 to 3. On both sides of the violet gold crown, there were totems of white tigers, which was an immortal beast in Hua people and symbolized the realm of earth knight. If Zhang Tie promoted to a shadow knight, the number of bars on his violet gold crown would increase from 3 to 5 while the totem on his crown would turn to the immortal beast Xuanwu.

Zhang Tie was wearing a special suit, which was called the seal of the earth. The entire ceremonial robe was made of golden boa silk, which symbolized the golden chakra of earth knight. The ceremonial robe was embroidered with various propitious patterns which carried special meanings. It took over 800 female weavers over 1 month to make this ceremonial robe according to the strict requests on a propitious robe.

The 4 m-longer cloak behind the ceremonial robe was dragged by Zhang Tie on the red carpet. As Zhang Tie walked forwards steadily, it rose and fell on the stone steps at the foot of the mountain.

Two rows of warriors were leading the way with ceremonial vessels in hands; additionally, 8 pairs of young male and female virgins were scattering items such as “perfume”, “refined salt”, “five cereals” and “sandalwood flowers” in front of Zhang Tie. Those boys and girls were at most 12 years old. They had rehearsed it many times for this ceremony. It was the beginning for them to have a bright future by showing up on such a grand occasion. Zhang Tie’s eldest uncle asked Zhang Yang to have Zhang Tie spare 2 places for his grandson and granddaughter. All the other boys and girls came from the other cities across Huaiyuan Palace.

Zhang Tie was followed by two rows of deacons of Huaiyuan Palace.

This time, Deacon Yu had tasted the fruit for serving Zhang Tie through selecting 2 people from the 6 female and male virgins provided by Huaiyuan Palace. Many people who had relationship and ability in Huaiyuan Palace had made their full efforts to have their juniors join the team for purifying the road for Zhang Tie. By doing that, their juniors could show up in the public and see the world; what counted most, they could strike up an acquaintance with Zhang Tie. In the future, if those kids had good prospects, when they met Zhang Tie and reminded Zhang Tie that they were those kids who purified the road for him when he held his rotating charka ceremony, they might be favored by Zhang Tie and lead a much brighter future. If so, their positions at home even family and clan would be utterly different from then on.

Everybody knew that Zhang Tie would be the grand elder of Huaiyuan Palace after this ceremony; additionally, Zhang Tie was the founder of Iron-Dragon Sect, whose battle strength and secret methods both ranked first in Youzhou Province. Zhang Tie had a definitely bright future!

These days, all the people in Huaiyuan Palace firmly believed that Elder Mushen could hold his 3rd rotating chakra ceremony in his life and he would become the first clan elder in the history of Huaiyuan Palace who could promote to a shadow knight. Even Lord Huaiyuan had not made that.

Although Zhang Tie felt a bit melancholy due to the affair of Pandora, he had almost recovered his composure.

When the bell rang for the 9th time, Zhang Tie recovered a bit resolute look. After that, he released a powerful battle qi tornado which appeared above Tiger Embracing Mountain like a huge, fiery, boundless tornado. Even though it was in the daytime, the clouds above the entire Tiger Embracing Mountain had been dyed into fiery. As a result, the clouds looked like burning. The surroundings of the Tiger Embracing Mountain changed color at once.

The moment Zhang Tie’s battle qi tornado rushed into the sky, the audience in the Ancestral Shrine Palace had been in a turmoil. Many knights changed their faces at once. Even those elders of Huaiyuan Palace at present were raising their eyebrows with amazed looks.

This battle qi tornado was really powerful. Given it, Zhang Tie must have promoted to an earth knight for a long time.

The moment the royal highness of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion recovered his composure from his shock caused by Bai Suxian’s words “So few…”, he had shot out shrewd eye light at the sight of the battle qi tornado which shot into the sky from the top of the mountain.

“Fire Dragon Sutra”, this is the battle qi tornado of “Fire Dragon Sutra…” Someone in the auditorium couldn’t help but exclaim.

As if it was to verify these exclamations, a huge fire dragon rose up in the battle qi tornado and started to wheel in the sky.

After a short while, the ferocious fire dragon and battle qi tornado hovering in the sky disappeared at once. When the audience was recalling the shocking scene, a few minutes later, another battle qi tornado rose up. This time, the battle qi tornado was resplendent and colorful with the same amazing qi field. Right in the colorful battle qi tornado, the bizarre landscape of the entire Tiger Embracing Mountain gradually unfolded like a mirage…

“Is this…’Five-elements Ground-looking Sutra’? No way…” a guest shouted unbelievably, “Doesn’t Elder Mushen alone promote to an earth knight? Why are there two kinds of battle qi tornadoes? How could one person cultivate 2 classics at the same time?”

The entire Ancestral Shrine Palace became quiet at once. The royal highness of Lord Guangnan’s Mansion and the representatives of the 4 top sects of Taixia Country, including those of Taiyi Fantasy Sect were shocked; some of them became restless…

Before Zhang Tie arrived, he had shocked everyone at present…
