I Have An Impenetrable Fortress - Chapter 57

Chapter 57: The Second Fortress Expansion.

Upon hearing the system notification, Zhang Dongyun immediately gave the order. Expand.

In Chang’an Fortress, the golden light that only Zhang Dongyun, the Fortress Lord himself, could see once again surged and extended outward.

Chen Chaoyan and the others were lucky. Although they did not reach Chang’an Fortress, they happened to be within the scope of Zhang Dongyun’s system.

The two groups of people of the Fortune Celebration Temple and the Mirror Moon Tower who fell behind were still some distance away from the original scope of the system.

But…

Zhang Dongyun estimated the distance between both parties and smiled to himself.

The golden light expanded, and his own physical senses seemed to extend outward.

He had a larger area under his control.

[The scope of the system has expanded. Do you want to expand the actual size of the fortress to match with the system?]

No.

Zhang Dongyun had a plan for this.

[After the second expansion of the fortress, the size of the fortress will not match with the current scope of the system for the time being.

But the size of the fortress will change to the scope of the system after the first expansion.

Later, during the following third expansion, the size of the fortress will change to at least the scope of the system after the second expansion and so on.]

Do it that way… Zhang Dongyun ordered.

[As you wish.]

Along with the system notification, a golden glow emerged once again.

Mister Black Cloud, whom Zhang Dongyun projected, put his hands behind his back as he calmly looked at the two groups of people of the Fortune Celebration Temple and the Mirror Moon Tower in the distance

The people of these two sects wanted to retreat at this moment.

They could not see the initial flash of golden light from the fortress.

But they had witnessed the old man in black slash the seventh-realm Nascent Soul expert at his waist and capture him.

He had astounding strength and was not someone they could resist.

They had never had any direct dealings with Chang’an Fortress before. Instead, they had only heard some specious rumors.

Now, it seemed that the people in Chang’an Fortress were much stronger than the rumors.

If they wanted to take down this place, they could not do it with the manpower they had.

As both leaders ordered their people to retreat, they wondered how to put in a couple of decent words without hurting their dignity too much.

But before they could say anything, they suddenly saw a golden light rising in the distance.

The entire White Cloud Abyss was shaking.

The next moment, countless light currents surged and pervaded the four directions.

Amid the intertwining lights, the people of the Fortune Celebration Temple and the Mirror Moon Tower suddenly shouted in unison.

One side of the fortress walls was ‘charging’ at them!

The fortress wall was so grand and majestic that it seemed as though they could not see the end of the wall. With an earth-shattering aura, it flattened mountain ridges and ‘charged’ all the way to them.

Even the old bloody shadow demon, Chen Chaoyan, Hui Tianyu, Chen Jiezhi, and the others were dumbfounded as they stared at the miraculous scene in amazement.

Guo Zi brought Hui Tianyu with him. However, he was not high enough in the air at first, and he stared blankly at the fortress wall ‘crashing’ toward him. Only then did he come back to his senses and quickly ascend higher.

The ‘galloping’ fortress wall rumbled past everyone from below.

All of them were startled as they looked at themselves. They had remained still yet had just gone from being outside the fortress to being in it.

For those who saw Chang’an Fortress for the first time, a thought inevitably arose in their hearts. This fortress can move?

The old bloody shadow demon and the others noticed that the fortress wall was much longer than they had remembered.

From one end of the fortress, they could hardly see the other end in the air.

The fortress did not move.

It was the fortress walls that moved.

And it was not just the walls moving. They grew longer as they expanded outward.

The entire fortress expanded outward and was even bigger than before.

Upon realizing this, they all felt a stirring sensation.

What kind of fortress is this?

What kind of person is the lord of this fortress?

The fortress walls finally stopped expanding and moving.

A fortress even more majestic and massive than the former Chang’an appeared in the White Cloud Abyss.

The actual scope of the system had already gone beyond the White Cloud Abyss and occupied the other mountain ridges within Dragon Ridge.

Mister Black Cloud, who had likewise gone from being outside the fortress to being in it, turned and bowed respectfully in the direction of the Great Ming Palace.

“Greetings, Your Majesty. Your Majesty has vast powers and boundless strength.”

The old bloody shadow demon and the others were similarly awakened and hurriedly bowed together toward the center of the fortress.

“Your Majesty has vast powers and boundless strength!”

The people of the Fortune Celebration Temple and the Mirror Moon Tower stared dumbfounded at the wall ‘charging’ toward them before they finally stopped in their tracks and did not bump into it head-on.

At that moment, they suddenly heard the words of Mister Black Cloud and others, and the expressions of the people outside the fortress all changed.

Is this the power of the Chang’an Fortress Lord?

All of them escaped in a hurry.

The two leaders were no longer able to worry about putting in any decent words.

Their fate had been sealed, and they would not be able to leave the White Cloud Abyss.

After bowing, Mister Black Cloud in the fortress immediately turned around and left the fortress.

He stepped on a black cloud, and in the blink of an eye, he caught up with the Fortune Celebration Temple people.

Upon seeing this, they could only turn around to fight.

Streaks of dark-red flames rose into the sky.

The Arcane Fortune Li Fire danced and interlaced before finally faintly condensing into something like a cauldron of fire that seemed solid.

“You can’t be refined into pills. You’re only worthy of being burned as wood,” Mister Black Cloud said casually as he pointed his finger.

A small milky-white flame appeared in the air and landed on the dark-red cauldron.

The next moment, the milky-white flame suddenly spread and turned into a raging inferno.

The dark-red cauldron seemed to turn into fuel for the milky-white flame, fueling it to burn bigger and bigger.

The Arcane Fortune Li Fire became the fuel for another kind of flame.

The other party could even burn this Daoist pill fire!

After the milky-white flame burned the opponents’ Arcane Fortune Li Fire away, it expanded into a sea of fire and then descended.

The white sea of fire surrounded the Fortune Celebration Temple people, and they were unable to move forward or retreat. They could only be restrained and captured.

After Mister Black Cloud rained down the sea of fire and surrounded the Fortune Celebration Temple people, he did not look any further and continued to pursue the Mirror Moon Tower people on the black cloud.

They flew away on the thunder dragon foals, but the next moment, Mister Black Cloud was already in front of them.

The leader’s lips moved as he hesitated to speak.

But some of the young disciples, unable to hold back under pressure and fear, shouted and attacked first.

One by one, crescent scimitars transformed into moonlight beams and slashed at Mister Black Cloud.

Mister Black Cloud waved his hand, and all the ‘moonlight beams’ bounced back.

Their heads flew up into the sky one after another.

He decapitated any Mirror Moon Tower disciple who dared to attack.

He quietly looked at the Mirror Moon Tower elder, who was leading the group opposite him.

The elder let out a long, turbid breath, dismounted from his thunder dragon foal, and knelt on one knee. “I am willing to be beheaded, but I ask Your Excellency to spare the lives of my sect’s disciples.”

“Regardless of you or them, none of your lives belong to yourselves.” Mister Black Cloud’s tone was indifferent.

He lifted his hand, and black mists swept up the Mirror Moon Tower people together.

Mister Black Cloud stepped forward in the air, passed by the people of the Fortune Celebration Temple, and then raised his hand again.

The milky-white sea of fire did not hurt them at all but lifted them.

Mister Black Cloud captured the people of the two sects and returned to Chang’an Fortress.
