I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield

Chapter 360: Chapter 324: A Single Shot Annihilates the Demon Cave

The Wind Carpet carried over a thousand warriors towards the first Demon Cave. The closer they got to the area, the thicker and heavier the air became, as if steeped in coagulated ink.

Sweat drenched the palms of the warriors as their breathing grew rapid. Their previous worries about the First and Third Battalions were overshadowed by their own fears — for beneath the first Demon Cave lay a terror tenfold greater than the second.

The number of demons in the first Demon Cave exceeded ten thousand, but what was more deadly were the over ten Tier Six demons entrenched within.

Even with Commander Yan Song’s Golden Level bloodline, and another Tier Six Soul Master by his side, the two faced demons five times as powerful.

”Commander... can we really do this?” A young warrior clenched his Battle Sword, his voice trembling.

The veteran next to him said nothing, just swallowed hard.

They understood that Yan Song must have his reasons for deciding this, yet in the face of such a formation, even the firmest resolve would inevitably waver.

At that moment, Yan Song stood at the front of the Wind Carpet, his body aglow with a gold-red halo, eyes locked on the valley shrouded in Demonic Qi, revealing no signs of wavering.

As the Wind Carpet pierced through the final layer of Demonic Qi clouds, all the warriors gasped, and even Yan Song’s pupils contracted slightly.

The first Demon Cave wasn’t a ”cave” at all but a massive valley hollowed out by Demonic Qi.

At the center of the valley, a rift split heaven and earth, its movement violently trembling, like a giant beast’s throat opening wide. The rift swirled with ink-black Demonic Qi, at times surging with dark purple electric arcs and at times spewing gray vapors tinged with the scent of sulfur. The surrounding space warped into eerie curves, and even sunlight could not penetrate the area, casting only a dim halo at its edges.

This was the Demonic Qi Rift — the source from which demons poured ceaselessly, pulsating like a beating heart, every beat amplifying the concentration of Demonic Qi in the heavens and earth.

The surrounding rocks had long been eroded to gray-black, and the ground was filled with deep chasms, flowing with highly poisonous dark green slime. Occasionally, a Low level Demon slipped and fell, instantly corroded into a wisp of black smoke.

What truly numbed the scalp was the demon horde surrounding the rift.

Over ten thousand demons crowded the valley like a tide; Bone Wing Demons hovered at low altitude, the shadows of their flapping wings engulfing the sky. Nearly a dozen Flesh Demons, with bodies as large as Xiaoshan, lay on the ground, tearing into the corpses of their kind, their dark green blood flowing through their folds to form a foul stream on the ground. Countless Claw Demons weaved between them, their sharp claws scraping the rocks, emitting a teeth-grinding noise.

The aura of Tier Six demons was like a slumbering volcano scattered within — a Steel Demon Wolf over ten meters in length licked its claws, each claw-tip gleaming with metallic brightness.

A snake-bodied, human-faced Medusa coiled at the edge of the rift, her golden scales shimmering amidst the Demonic Qi, her gaze solidifying the air wherever it passed.

The Three-headed Magma Giant stood side-by-side, magma coursing over their bare skin, with each breath spewing forth scorching waves.

The roars of over ten thousand demons merged into a low-frequency hum, causing the Wind Carpet to tremble slightly. Warriors gripping their weapons found their hands shaking uncontrollably, some even instinctively retreating half a step, bumping into the comrades behind them.

Yan Song slowly raised his hand, the light of the Golden Bloodline suddenly blazing: ”Hold your ground.”

The two words thundered, overpowering the distant demon roars.

The warriors drew a deep breath, looking at the commanding figure of their leader, finally gripping their weapons tightly — no matter what kind of hell lay ahead, they had no path back.

Deep within the Demonic Qi Rift, a terrifying existence seemed to be stirred by this external Spiritual Energy, a muffled roar echoing faintly, causing the entire valley to tremble.
