Zhang Tie flew in the upper region of the stratosphere over 60 miles above the sea in Chaos at a high speed…
Zhang Tie had played his flight ability as a divine dominator to the utmost at this moment and reached 8 times the speed of sound in the air, namely about 2,800 m per second and almost 6,000 miles per hour.
A few months ago, when he had just developed the flight ability as a divine dominator in Xuanyuan Hill, he could at most reach 6 times the speed of sound in the air; however, after killing Han Zhengfang and Han Yuanhong, Zhang Tie promoted to the 4th realm of earth knight and gained a higher overall strength; especially after absorbing the spiritual energy of both Han Zhengfang and Han Yuanhong, Zhang Tie’s spiritual energy bulged as he gained a greater flight ability as a divine dominator. He could fly at 8 times the speed of sound in air; actually, almost 9 times the speed of sound.
Such a flight speed was too shocking if it was exposed to the public.
Zhang Tie was accomplishing 3 tasks at the same time.
First, he controlled his altitude, speed and gesture.
Second, Zhang Tie searched over the sea with his lotus flower eyes. At such an altitude in the stratosphere, he could gain the best visual angle over the sea within 600 miles.
Third, Zhang Tie was constantly replenishing his spiritual energy using Thousands of Beads Mental Sutra in his mind.
It would cost him spiritual energy by using the flight ability of divine dominator. However, Zhang Tie’s spiritual energy was too strong; additionally, he had grasped the secret method Thousands of Beads Sutra. Therefore, he could constantly replenish his spiritual energy using Thousands of Beads Sutra when in flight and maintained a relative balance in spiritual energy. In this way, he could greatly increase his flight ability.
According to the current situation, Zhang Tie found that he could maintain his spiritual energy unchanged if he kept flying at the speed 3 times that of the speed of sound while constantly replenishing his spiritual energy using Thousands of Beads Sutra. To a certain degree, he could absolutely fly for one year at the speed 3 times that of the speed of sound; namely, 3 times the speed of sound was his unlimited cruising speed in the sky.
By contrast, it would cost him a bit more spiritual energy by flying at the speed of over 8 times that of the speed of sound. The faster he flew, the greater spiritual energy he would consume. Thousands of Beads Sutra could only replenish about half of the total spiritual energy that he had consumed. Even so, Zhang Tie could still fly for a long time in the sky.
If he didn’t replenish his spiritual energy, Zhang Tie could constantly fly about over 900,000 miles for about 7 days at his greatest speed. If he used Thousands of Beads Mental Sutra to replenish his spiritual energy when in flight, Zhang Tie could fly over 1.2 million miles for about 10 days at his greatest speed.
Zhang Tie left Fire-Dragon Bounty Territory the night before last. After over 30 hours’ flight, Zhang Tie had flown almost 180,000 miles and arrived at the place over 6,000 miles away in the west of the northern waters of Waii Subcontinent, which led to the Western Continent.
After 2 days’ constant flight, Zhang Tie gained a new gnosis about his flight ability as a divine dominator. He could better control his flight using the ability of divine dominator.
At this moment, Zhang Tie was covered by the Chaos which was of a strong killing intent as he was inspecting the waters below like an eagle that was hunting for its prey. After confirming the general action route of the expeditionary corps and fleet of Sacred Light Empire, Zhang Tie aimed to exterminate this enemy at the greatest speed and in the most vicious, directest, complete and decisive means before this expeditionary corps arrived at the waters of Ewentra Archipelago.
The overall strength of Sacred Light Empire was far greater than that of Zhang Tie. Zhang Tie couldn’t shock the entire country.
However, Zhang Tie could also win this war and prevent Sacred Iceland Kingdom from being violated by Sacred Light Empire.
Zhang Tie’s method was very direct, namely, he wanted Sacred Light Empire to mistake that there was a shadow knight on the back of Sacred Iceland Kingdom.
Those pastors of Sacred Light Empire would never go against a shadow knight only for occupying Sacred Iceland Kingdom unless they were idiots. As long as they realized that there was a shadow knight on the back of Sacred Iceland Kingdom, they would never start the second expedition. The reason was simple. A billionaire would never snatch a bun at the risk of his life. If this bun was in the hand of a kid which could be easily snatched at a low risk so as to satisfy their appetite, Sacred Light Empire might not mind snatching it. However, now, the one who held this bun became a boorish fellow with a weapon. Would the billionaire snatch that bun at the risk of being stabbed for a few times?
How large was Sacred Light Empire? How large was Ice and Snow Wilderness? What was the population of Sacred Light Empire? What was the population of Ice and Snow Wilderness? The entire Sacred Light Empire had tens of billions of people; its territory was over 5 times that of Blackson Humans Corridor. However, the entire territory of Sacred Iceland Kingdom was only a bit more than 18 million square miles. The Sacred Iceland Kingdom was sharply dwarfed by Sacred Light Empire in both population and land.
How many major pastors and throne pastors would Sacred Light Empire spend only for such a sesame? Would the three supreme halos pastors in the three parishes of Sacred light Empire risk their lives only for Ice and Snow Wilderness?
It was impossible.
Sacred Light Empire had other opponents. Sacred Light Empire didn’t get along well with the other major countries on the Western Continent.
Therefore, Zhang Tie had to cut off the claws that Sacred Light Empire stretched towards Ice and Snow Wilderness clearly and completely. Additionally, he needed to fabricate an illusion so that Sacred Light Empire felt that it was a powerful shadow knight, a mysterious shadow knight on the back of Sacred Iceland Kingdom who could beat up those jerk pastors of Sacred Light Empire and destroyed their ambitions.
Zhang Tie was not a shadow knight; however, his battle strength as a divine dominator could match that of a shadow knight to a certain extent.
The expeditionary corps of Sacred Light Empire only contained 2 throne pastors and 5 chief pastors. If Zhang Tie had just promoted to an earth knight, it would be a bit difficult for him to deal with such a combination; however, after killing Han Zhengfang, Zhang Tie was confident to deal with these knights.
Therefore, no matter what a great stress and chaos had Sacred Light Empire brought to Sacred Iceland Kingdom, Zhang Tie was not worried about that. As long as he had enough battle strength, he could turn crisis into opportunity. In Zhang Tie’s opinion, it was a good opportunity for him to remove the external threats facing the Sacred Iceland Kingdom in a long period.
Zhang Tie only had one concernWhere’s the enemy?
The sun had risen from the east and made Chaos and the clouds under his foot golden red. In the early sunlight, Zhang Tie finally caught sight of the huge fleet with the flag of Sacred Light Empire which was cleaving through waves over 600 miles away through the thin clouds.
That fleet was moving towards Ewentra Waters.
At the sight of this fleet, Zhang Tie knew that he had discovered his target. Therefore, Zhang Tie gazed at this fleet firmly in high-speed flight.
Gradually, many apertures like lotus flowers petals appeared in Zhang Tie’s pupils one after another. After that, those apertures rotated at different speeds; some of them rotated in a clock-wise manner; some in an anti-clockwise manner. Additionally, those apertures were changing their sizes gradually…
With the rotation and change of those apertures in Zhang Tie’s eyes, those warships over 600 miles away became increasingly clearer in Zhang Tie’s eyes as if they were right under Zhang Tie’s foot.
Zhang Tie immediately recognized the flagship of that fleet.
The flagship of that fleet was a huge ship which was longer than 500 m and heavier than 200,000 tons. Being surrounded by the other warships, this flagship was the largest one; additionally, the flagship flag, the 2 flags of throne pastors and 5 chief pastors on the mast of the huge ship also exposed its identity.
Zhang Tie gazed at the flagship with his lotus-flower eyes at once; at the same time, the two lotus-flower shaped apertures in his eyes rotated while the pink apertures turned into pale blue. The huge flagship then became transparent at once. Zhang Tie could see clearly the inside of the huge flagship. Many sailors were going upstairs and downstairs inside the flagship as if they were busy walking in a transparent glass boat. There were many materials on the huge ship. About 30,000 fighters of Sacred Light Empire were living in the cabins in the middle and lower floors of the flagship. The captain and some officials of that flagship were observing the sea by the telescope in the command room at the prow. In a luxurious room on the highest floor of the flagship, 7 people were enjoying breakfast…
5 of the 7 people wore the same clothes as that of the chief pastor of Sacred Light Empire that Zhang Tie had killed previouslythey were in a high golden crown and a robe which was embroidered with suns, moons and stars. By contrast, the other 2 people’s robes were brighter while more patterns on their robes represented brightness…
‘I got you!’ Zhang Tie muttered as he triggered a super hiding rune and a super rapid-moving rune. Closely after that, his speed surged once again as he flashed towards that flagship…
