I Picked Up Talents in the Interstellar Battlefield

chapter 172 - Wall of Cangmu


Bang!In the sea of flames, a bullet arrived silently, carrying an unrivaled penetrative force, blowing off the Dark Elf's skull.Qin Tian raised an eyebrow, looking at the newly added evolution points on his system panel.It was even a fifth-tier Dark Elf.Boom!!!Terrifying pressure came from afar, approaching at an extremely fast speed.“Sixth-tier!”Qin Tian’s pupils contracted; it seemed this rescue mission was much more difficult than he had imagined.He had to fight with his life.Whoosh~Rolling evil clouds arrived in an instant. Kaierlan stood atop the black clouds, looking down at the Black-Robed Man below, his tone icy cold:“The human who destroyed my warband, I didn't expect to find you here.”It’s him!Qin Tian recognized Kaierlan at a glance, the Golden Oak Tribe’s enemy, a powerful sixth-tier Dark Elf.Qin Tian didn't hesitate, turning and running. “Run? Where can you run to?” A cold laugh escaped Kaierlan’s throat. The evil energy surging in his palm was like boiling asphalt, instantly condensing into a massive black cloud hand that blotted out the sky.The void whimpered under this overwhelming power, the clouds were stained ink-black, and the sky abruptly darkened.Terrifying pressure, like tangible chains, wrapped around Qin Tian, making his steps falter before even touching him.Every step felt like treading in viscous liquid lead, his spine making a brittle, strained sound.At this critical moment, the Demon King’s Grand Wing, as dark as night, unfurled with a roar. The dark purple patterns flowing on the bone wings twisted like living things, carrying a dark energy storm capable of tearing space, pulverizing the air within a hundred-meter radius.Qin Tian transformed into an ink-black streak of light that tore through the void, leaving spiderweb-like cracks in space behind him.Seeing this, Kaierlan frowned slightly. The evil clouds beneath his feet suddenly expanded, transforming into a ferocious phantom of an evil dragon. The pressure of a sixth-tier Spiritual Energy User startled all the birds in the entire forest.Hundreds of energy projectiles, carrying a putrid stench, rained down like a meteor shower. Trees instantly carbonized in their wake, exploding into black smoke in mid-air.Qin Tian's figure weaved ghost-like through the bullet rain, the Demon King’s Grand Wing leaving afterimages in the void with every flap.He sometimes swept low to the ground, the air currents he stirred up grinding withered grass into powder; other times, he abruptly ascended, narrowly dodging exploding energy projectiles above his head, the scorching heat searing his black robe, yet his eyes were as calm as ice.“Dragon-Binding Net!”Kaierlan’s furious roar shattered the clouds. Pitch-black evil energy shot out like living snakes, instantly weaving into a cage around Qin Tian.Four barbed tentacles wrapped around his limbs, the viscous evil energy corroding his skin, emitting a grating sizzling sound.Qin Tian swung out his black frost blade, the blade light wild and overbearing. The instant it severed the tentacles, a colossal evil energy fist, blotting out the sky and carrying an aura of destruction, smashed down upon him.The black frost blade erupted with dazzling lightning, its explosively powerful blade qi met the incoming strike, but shattered like glass the moment it touched the giant fist.Qin Tian felt as if his internal organs had been displaced by this force, and he was sent crashing into the ground like a meteorite. Amidst the violent roar, a hundred-meter-diameter crater appeared, and when the dust settled, a figure in a shattered black robe swayed to its feet.The blood seeping from his chest turned into green smoke the moment it touched the evil energy, but his pale face remained taut as a bowstring, and the cold glint in his eyes was even sharper than before.“Run, can you even run?”Kaierlan looked down at Qin Tian from above, his eyes like an ancient cold pool, filled with ice and killing intent.Qin Tian said nothing, gripping his blade and staring directly at Kaierlan. Facing a sixth-tier master brought him immense pressure. Although he could now steadily snipe fifth-tiers, in close-quarters combat, he struggled even against fifth-tiers, and against a sixth-tier, he had no chance of winning, even self-preservation was an issue.“You are human, and you also possess evil energy, why did you help the elves destroy my warband?” Kaierlan said coldly.Qin Tian looked into his eyes and said calmly:“Naturally, I was ordered by my superiors. Elves are our enemies, and so are you.”Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Kaierlan’s eyes.“Whose orders are you under?”Qin Tian calmly replied:“Don’t you even know who your opponent is?”Hearing this, several names immediately surfaced in Kaierlan’s mind.Moloch, Ogallos, Lilith—these were all sixth-tier Dark Elves with whom he had competed or had conflicts of interest. “Tell me his name, and I can spare your life,” Kaierlan said coldly.Qin Tian chuckled, “Do you think I’d believe your nonsense?”“Stubborn. I have many ways to make you talk.”Kaierlan’s pupils ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ constricted to pinpricks. The evil energy churning in his palm suddenly twisted into a hundred hideous, pitch-black vengeful spirits with bared fangs. These monsters, formed from evil energy, let out piercing screams, their sonic waves carrying mental force like invisible claws, fiercely tearing at space.An amber glow emanated from Qin Tian’s soul. The Divine Right of Spiritual Intelligence’s defensive barrier weakened the mental impact by 90%.The vengeful spirits’ roars could only stir tiny ripples in his soul.He drew his black frost blade with a backhand, the blade’s edge cutting through the air with a sharp whistle. Each strike precisely severed the vengeful spirits’ throats, their black remnants turning into green smoke and dissipating in the air.This scene completely ignited Kaierlan’s fury. He roared like a beast, head thrown back, and the evil clouds behind him suddenly transformed into a thousand-meter-high black waterfall, pouring down.Where the scorching evil energy torrent passed, rocks instantly vaporized, and the air twisted into bizarre vortices, as if to drag everything within a ten-mile radius into purgatory.Just then, a blazing red light suddenly exploded in the distant sky. Nine crimson pillars of fire pierced through the clouds and shot straight into the heavens. The air currents generated by the Explosion kicked up dust like surging waves. Even from a distance, Kaierlan could feel an astonishing heatwave.The ground beneath his feet trembled, and Kaierlan’s face changed drastically—that was the direction of the main force.“Aran has made his move.”Qin Tian's eyes flashed. The green sandalwood holy branch bracelet on his wrist suddenly emitted an emerald light. Countless wooden vines shot out like living snakes, instantly intertwining to form a hundred-meter-tall, towering tree barrier. Ancient life runes appeared on the bark, emitting a grating sizzle under the erosion of evil energy.The evil energy waterfall crashed against the Wall of Ancient Wood, and the entire space vibrated violently. The tree surface rapidly carbonized, black cracks spreading like a spiderweb, but the runes flickered, constantly regenerating new woody tissue.Kaierlan’s eyes were bloodshot at the sight. He formed hand seals, frantically injecting power. The evil energy concentration surged several times, finally completely shattering the ancient wood barrier.Amidst the earth-shattering Explosion, a hundred-meter-diameter giant pit rose from the ground, the cracked earth like a shattered mirror.Kaierlan hovered in mid-air, his gaze sweeping the ruins like a hawk, only to see a spatial gate shrunk to a black dot.“He actually has spatial teleportation ability.”Kaierlan clenched his fist, then seemed to think of something and abruptly turned his head to look into the distance.Not good!
