The Gloomy Man and the Dwarf Man were taken away, and the strictest interrogation of the Golden Oak Tribe awaited them.Elves are a peace-loving race, kind but never weak. For those evil people who harm their Elf compatriots, they never hesitate to use the cruelest methods against them."Qin, thank you."Ailong thanked him again. He guessed that Qin Tian might have gotten into trouble because of this, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty."It's nothing."Qin Tian smiled. He didn't want to cause trouble, but he wasn't afraid of it either.The Gloomy Man abducting the Elf girl must have had a rich and powerful buyer behind him, and he must have cleared the way with the military.He had ruined these people's plans and shattered many people's dreams of getting rich, so trouble was inevitable.But so what? He came for the Elf Holy Land, Silver Moon Lake, which meant he had to build a good relationship with the Elf Race. This incident was a good start.If the buyer wanted revenge, then let them come.He didn't mind adding a few more souls to his gun or blade, and harvesting Evolution Points and Talent Orbs along the way.As for the military, there was even less to worry about. Did they really think his identity as a Seventh Bureau Colonel was for show?It was good enough that he didn't go looking for trouble with others.If anyone dared to reach out, the internal inspection's big blade would surely fall on him, and he would obediently eat prison food from then on."Qin, the Golden Oak Tribe never treats its friends poorly."Ailong said seriously, "I will apply to the Chief to give you the highest-grade gift.""Oh?"Qin Tian raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, "Then I'll have something to look forward to."The small interlude ended, but neither the Elves nor the humans could easily calm down. Everyone discovered that the seemingly inexperienced and somewhat immature Qin Tian was not as simple as they had imagined."Qin Tian, how did you find them?"Xing Fei couldn't help but ask.Qin Tian's explanation was simple: he just searched in the opposite direction and found them.However, the forest environment was incredibly complex; even a slight deviation in direction would make it impossible to intersect."Want to know?"Qin Tian said with a smile, "I can tell you, but are you sure you want to get involved in this mess? Aren't you afraid of retaliation if you know too much?"Upon hearing this, Xing Fei's heart tightened. Yes, perhaps Qin Tian had the confidence to protect himself, but she was just an ordinary Spiritual Energy User, with no background, and had to rely on herself for everything.If she knew too much, those infuriated people might just deal with her as well.That's what she thought, but for some reason, Xing Fei looked at Qin Tian and, as if possessed, blurted out:"Then will you protect me?"Qin Tian: ???Ms. Xing, you're not right. "Haha, I can barely protect myself right now, let alone protect others."Qin Tian patted Xing Fei's shoulder and said, "So, it's better not to know some things."After speaking, Qin Tian walked straight away, leaving behind a disheartened person who sighed sadly in the forest."Qin Tian, you ruined my plans. Just wait, you'll die a miserable death!"As soon as he returned to the treehouse, Qin Tian received an anonymous threatening text message."Heh, still daring to threaten me?"Qin Tian immediately reported the matter to Yan Qing, asking the Seventh Bureau to conduct a thorough internal investigation of the Elf Star space fleet.To see who was colluding with external forces and attempting to abduct Elf girls.He didn't take the threatening text message to heart. He sat on the bed and took out the thank-you gift Ailong had given him.A leaf, a fruit.The ancient Golden Oak tree produced leaves and fruits containing spiritual energy every year, but a portion of the leaves and fruits would not fall off.Instead, they would remain on the tree for a hundred, or even several hundred years.What Ailong gave him was a five-hundred-year-old Golden Oak Leaf and a three-hundred-year-old Golden Oak Fruit.The Golden Oak Leaf shimmered with a translucent, glassy luster, with liquid gold-like glimmers flowing through its veins. Cloud-like spiritual patterns circulated on its surface, and whenever mental power touched it, the entire leaf would unfurl like a wing, emitting a fresh scent interwoven with sandalwood and cedar, as if the pure essence of a thousand-year-old forest was concentrated within.The Golden Oak Fruit's skin was covered in coral-like golden patterns, and its top was embedded with an amber-colored crystal core, like solidified sunlight. Its outer skin had a silky matte texture, and when light refracted, faint internal veins could be seen, like golden blood flowing through the life fruit's vessels.Since the Divine Right of Spiritual Intelligence could increase the effect of any soul-type treasure by 100%, Qin Tian first held the Golden Oak Leaf in his mouth.A cool liquid gold current flowed down his throat into his meridians. The next moment, his consciousness suddenly plummeted into a golden forest, where countless glowing oak roots spread through the void. Moonlight flowing through the canopies condensed into leaf-shaped runes, gently attaching to the surface of his soul.Some of the mental pollution lingering outside his soul, like thin frost scorched by sunlight, hissed and then dissipated into green smoke.His mental power slowly increased under the nourishment of the Golden Oak Leaf.By the time the entire leaf had completely merged into his soul, nearly 30% of the mental pollution had dissipated, and his mental power had increased by more than 20%.It should be noted that after obtaining the Divine Right of Spiritual Intelligence, his mental power had grown by dozens of times, so this 20% increase was already quite impressive.Moreover, the Golden Oak Leaf also dispelled some mental pollution, which made Qin Tian even more excited about the Golden Oak Fruit.Crack~The moment he bit into the Golden Oak Fruit, the amber-colored life core, like a living creature, burrowed into his throat. His entire being felt as if it had fallen into a lake of life. Vast life force boiled within his body, merging with the residual vitality of the Green Wood Vitality Pill, transforming and reshaping his body.Bones, muscles, meridians, blood, skin—all were continuously strengthened under the tempering of the life force. The pure energy contained in the fruit blended with his psionic energy, and a new Star Source condensed. His psionic level smoothly broke through one star, reaching Tier 3 Three-Star.However, the upward momentum had not yet ended.By the time the fruit's energy was fully absorbed, another new Star Source successfully condensed.Since then, Qin Tian had continuously broken through two stars, becoming a Tier 3 Four-Star Spiritual Energy User."Hehe, this favor was worth it."Qin Tian's lips curved slightly. The hundred-year-old Golden Oak Leaf and Golden Oak Fruit enhanced his mental power, physical strength, and psionic level, while also dispelling some of the curse power in his body, further unleashing his combat power.He could sense that the residual vitality of the Green Wood Vitality Pill in his body had not weakened; instead, it had become even more vigorous and vast due to the addition of the Golden Oak Fruit, suppressing the spread of the curse power.The demonic tattoo on his chest had faded a little more, which meant that perhaps in the future, he wouldn't need to enter Silver Moon Lake to completely clear the evil god's curse through other means."Trouble, heh."Qin Tian looked out the window, his super hearing allowing him to catch the sounds of the Gloomy Man and the Dwarf Man being beaten and crying out in pain."I hope I have more and more of this kind of trouble."
