To be honest, when the full-moons gates opened and gave out brilliance, Zhang Tie didn't feel any energy connection between the full-moons gates and the two full moons outside. Whereas, when those mysterious runes inside the gates started to flow, Zhang Tie felt a sharp resonance between the All-spirits Tower in his mind sea and this full-moons gate.
Zhang Tie was confused about this response while the opening gate and the pitch-dark hole behind the gate didn't allow Zhang Tie to think about it too much.
"Let's go..." when the gate fully opened and over 6, 000 knights suddenly stopped their hubbub, Zhang Tie drew Bai Suxian's hand as they exchanged a glance with each other tacitly. Then, Bai Suxian injected some spiritual energy into Zhang Tie's body as they flew into the gate at a stroke.
Despite being pitch-dark to others, it was clearly a downward tunnel in the eyes of Zhang Tie.
Watching Zhang Tie and Bai Suxian entering the tunnel, Bai Sunshan and Deyang Immortal exchanged a glance with each other as they flew inside at the same time. Half a minute later, some shadow knights behind them looked at each other.
"What are we waiting for? The treasures of Great Wilderness Sect are right downside there, quick..." some knight couldn't help shouting.
After this yell, those shadow knights rushed into the pitch-dark hole behind the full-moons gate, closely followed by all the others like a shoal of fish for fresh water at their full efforts in fear of missing something.
In the tunnel, Zhang Tie just flew at the speed of 4 times that of sound, which although being fast for others was nothing for Zhang Tie.
The entire tunnel was like a deep well with a downward inclination. It was smooth on its walls which were covered with faint, flowing runes. At the speed four times that of sound, those illuminating runes receded as fast as light besides Zhang Tie and Bai Suixian.
"Faster?" Bai Suxian asked Zhang Tie.
"No need! We should just stay close to the other heavenly knights. No need to rush out first. It's okay for us to move a bit slowlier than them!"
"Aren't you afraid that they might get the treasures ahead of us?"
"Those ahead of us might also be martyrs!" Zhang Tie said with a smile.
Bai Suxian became silent...
...
As for the other full-moons gates, the moment they opened, all the heavenly knights had rushed in. Needless to say, those knights behind Zhang Tie and Woodbuilding Immortal had also rushed in within 2 minutes.
There were four knights of Lord Guangnan's Mansion guarding the full-moons gate for Zhang Tie's group. Similarly, some knights were also left by Taiyi Fantasy Sect, Heavens Holding Pavilion, Qionglou Pavilion, Demons-kill Valley and Jiang Clan outside their gates in case of emergency.
Four knights were left outside the gate occupied by Heavens Holding Pavilion. When they thought that nobody else would come in, a stranger appeared there.
Being short and fat, the arriver appeared to be a black iron knight. As his head was severely swollen, his original look could barely be identified. Half face wrapped with gauze, he looked like a mummy while being covered with an uncomfortable smell of low-quality ointment. Because of his swollen head, his eyes turned into a gap. From all angles of view, the pair of stealthy eyes inside the gap looked obscene.
At the sight of this obscene guy, all the four knights frowned as one of them asked him, "Stop, what are you doing?"
"Going inside..." that stranger replied innocently.
"Stay away from here. If you want to enter, choose other gates..." A knight said impatiently as he waved his hand like driving away a fly.
"Can't I go inside from here?"
"Of course you could. But haven't you heard the words of our deputy head Clouddragon Immortal? If you want to enter here, you could only get 10% of what you get inside. If you lost your life there, nobody would care about you. It has nothing to do with Heavens Holding Pavilion!" another knight said maliciously.
"Erm, I've already heard it. It's okay..." that guy answered generously with his swollen head as he nodded and bowed towards the four knights of Heavens Holding Pavilion, adding, "Heavens Holding Pavilion is always fair to everyone, young or old. It's known to us all. I would be glad to even get 10% of my achievements..."
"You..."
Before a knight finished his words, that short and fat guy had already flashed in.
No matter what, none of the people of Heavens Holding Pavilion could imagine that someone would like to adopt this condition including Clouddragon Immortal. Until this guy rushed in did the four knights look at each other blindly.
After looking around, they found nobody in the surroundings. Therefore, the four people exchanged a glance with each other weirdly.
"I wonder whether that guy is stupid or not? No, I should take a look inside in case of trouble!" one earth knight told the other three.
"If nobody else was in the tunnel..." another knight said with a cold look as he made a hand gesture of cutting down something.
"I see..." After that, the earth knight hurriedly flew into the pitch-dark tunnel to chase after that person.
In the pitch-dark tunnel, after flying about 1 minute downside, the earth knight of Heavens Holding Pavilion still didn't find that short and fat guy. Therefore, he became curious about him.
Suddenly, a hand appeared on the wall which was covered with looming, flowing runes, holding a black rectangular item like a brick. When the earth knight passed by, he got a sneak attack on the back side of his head.
