I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield

Chapter 394: Chapter 347: Shocking Upheaval, Tier 7 Black Flame Lord

In the days that followed, Qin Tian barely set his feet on the ground, spinning on an endless track that left him with pitifully little time to rest.

Most of the time, he stood guard at the Broken Blade front line, leading the soldiers of the Chijin Battlegroup to clear the surrounding flame pools and fire pits.

On the battlefield, he rarely took the initiative to charge, more often playing the role of support and reinforcement—where the blessing of divine weapons enhanced the quality of the warriors’ weapons, increasing the power of enchantment, so each slash carried a sharp gleam that destroyed demons; the green light of life pulse transformed into an invisible protective barrier, capable of healing wounds, dispelling the fatigue of battle, and enhancing the soldiers’ combat power.

Only when Tier Six demons breached the front line would he personally take action, using Shadowstrike or Thunder Skill to eliminate the enemies.

He also transformed into a master strategist, firmly controlling the troop maneuvering along the three major front lines.

When demons attacked, he would quickly muster strength according to the joint defense plan, transporting warriors to the battlefield to create a scenario where the many faced the few. Often, before the demons could form an encirclement, they were already shredded by human warriors from three sides.

Under the close cooperation of the three battlegroups, the demon caves near the front line were eradicated one by one.

The once continuous demon assaults visibly decreased in frequency, and even more invigorating was the casualty situation. Unless torn apart immediately by demons, even if left with just a breath, Qin Tian could snatch the person back from the Death God. Consequently, the casualties among the battlegroups decreased significantly, and morale soared higher.

After handling battlegroup affairs, Qin Tian would take a few hours each day to infiltrate Flame Mountain.

First, he sat quietly in a cave dense with demonic qi, allowing the ”Demon Pattern Turtle Armor” to convert the black demonic qi into body-tempering golden patterns, listening to the crisp sound akin to steel quenching from the bones. Then, he transformed into a wandering demon butcher, hunting in the ravines interwoven with firelight and demonic fog.

Initially, thousands of demons died at his hand every day.

Until one day, he sensitively sensed a cold gaze from the center of the demon source, carrying an overwhelming pressure far exceeding ordinary Tier Six demons.

He immediately decided to adjust his strategy, intercepting the demonic army leaving Flame Mountain, or besieging small demon caves rooted at the mountain’s periphery, thereby avoiding potential risks and continuously reaping evolution points.

After spinning on this track for over half a month, the evolution points on the system panel broke through the mark of 25 million, with the digits jumping on the system light screen, emitting a heart-pounding luster.

Based on the past escalating pattern of evolution points, such an amount of evolution points might just be enough to further advance the nearly deep orange ”Night Demon King” bloodline.

However, he still felt uncertain—within the Empire, hundreds possessed the golden bloodline, yet those of the holy blood level throughout history numbered only nine, a count unchanged for thousands of years.

The conditions for ascending from orange quality to a higher tier must be unimaginably rigorous, likely requiring a staggering number of evolution points.

”Better to save up more to be sure.”

Still, Qin Tian remained calm, satisfied with the current pace—strategizing at the front lines by day, watching as warriors steadily advanced under the blessing of divine weapons and life pulse, eradicating demon caves one after another; then infiltrating Flame Mountain by night, tempering his body with demonic qi while collecting evolution points using Soul Devourer.

The dual approach allowed both the battlegroups and his personal strength to advance simultaneously, leaving him rather content.

The demons of Demon Suppression Abyss are fundamentally inexhaustible, and given enough time, multiplying evolution points several times or even dozens of times hardly seemed difficult.

However, this calm was thoroughly shattered one night.

”Boom—!!”

A muffled sound akin to arising from the earth’s core abruptly exploded from the depths of Flame Mountain.
