I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield

Chapter 258: Chapter 254: Void Dominator (Orange): The Genius Battle Ends (2-in-1)

After leaving the Dongfang Ancestral Mansion, Qin Tian returned to his hotel—the most prestigious ”Celestial Spirit Haven” on Azure Wood Star.

This hotel is not an ordinary building, but is constructed around a thousand-meter-high ”Celestial Spirit Ancient Tree.”

The entire tree trunk has a diameter of over a hundred meters, its whole body dark golden, with naturally formed spirit patterns on the bark circulating like an array, emitting a gentle glow. The tree crown spreads out like a lavish canopy, obscuring the sky and sun, with crystalline spirit dew hanging from the branches, refracting colorful glows in the moonlight.

And at the top level of the tree crown, the cultivation area is equipped with thirty-six top-tier cultivation rooms.

Each cultivation room hangs like an independent tree knot from the main trunk, appearing simple and unadorned from the outside, but with a hidden world within: the floor is laid with ”Cold Jade Spirit Sandalwood” that calms the mind, ancient spirit gathering runes are carved on all four walls, and spirit grass hanging from the ceiling automatically adjusts the spiritual qi concentration in the room.

The most precious aspect is that these cultivation rooms are completely insulated from external interference; even a Divine Sense probe from a Tier Eight expert would be blocked by the tree’s innate spirit pattern barrier.

The Dongfang Clan reserved the supreme VIP room for Qin Tian, which allows unlimited use of the cultivation room, free of charge, until checkout.

Qin Tian pushed open the ancient wooden door of the cultivation room, and a rich surge of spiritual qi immediately rushed to meet him like a tidal wave, extremely pure, carrying the unique fresh wood scent of the ancient tree, transforming into a gentle warm current flowing through his entire body as he inhaled it.

He took a deep breath, feeling the stirring of spiritual power within him; the spiritual qi concentration in this cultivation room was at least ten times that of the outside world.

The Cold Jade Spirit Sandalwood laid on the ground exuded a trace of coolness, forming a mystical balance with the warm current in the air, calming one’s mind involuntarily.

However, today he was not here to cultivate but to find a quiet place to consume half a bottle of Void Dragon essence blood.

He took out the flask containing the essence blood of a Tier Nine Void Dragon, the crystal bottle exuding a fantastical silver light under the reflection of spiritual qi.

As the bottle cap opened, an ancient and vast aura instantly filled the entire cultivation room. The spirit grass hanging from the ceiling swayed violently, seemingly saluting this primordial force.

Qin Tian gazed at the dark silver dragon blood swirling in the crystal bottle; the liquid slithered along the bottle wall like a living creature, occasionally forming miniature dragon shapes. He took a deep breath and drank half the bottle in one gulp.

”Gulp—”

The moment the dragon blood entered his throat, Qin Tian’s entire body trembled violently. The blood seemed to have a life of its own, rushing into his veins and surging toward his entire body with astonishing speed. He could clearly feel every drop of dragon blood unleashing ancient and wild energy, which, thanks to the Night Demon King’s physique, was completely absorbed.

”Hiss—”

Fine silver dragon scales suddenly appeared on the surface of Qin Tian’s skin, but strangely, these scales didn’t maintain their original form; instead, they flowed like mercury and gradually merged with his skin. His muscle fibers were continuously torn apart and reorganized under the effect of the dragon blood, and his bones emitted a teeth-grinding ”crack” sound as their density visibly increased.

”Ah!”

A low growl burst from deep within his throat; Qin Tian could feel pure power surging within him—not through spiritual power augmentation, but the most primitive physical strength.

With a casual squeeze, the air burst into a sonic boom, this pure sense of violence astonishing even him.

The transformation continued.

The energy of the dragon blood began to penetrate into deeper layers of tissue, enveloping his internal organs in a layer of silver glow. The sound of his heartbeat was like a drum, with each pump lighting up dragon patterns all over his body. Most astonishingly, his blood was gradually tinting with a silver hue, producing a gurgling sound akin to a stream as it flowed.
