"Everyone, no need to see me off."
At the VIP terminal entrance of the Star Port, Qin Tian picked up his luggage, facing the friends behind him.
Dongfang Mingyu, Fu Ning, Yue Shenghe, Zhuge Yu...
There were seven of them in total. They hadn't left Azure Wood Star yet, so they arranged to send him off on his spaceship today.
"Qin Tian, visit me in the Chaotic Star Zone when you have time," Dongfang Mingyu said with a smile.
"Sure, maybe my business will soon reach the Chaotic Star Zone, and I'll need your help by then," Qin Tian replied with a smile.
Dongfang Mingyu nodded, "No problem, contact me anytime."
Yue Shenghe laughed heartily:
"Qin Tian, you still have business. If you expand to the Azure Star Zone in the future, come find me. I guarantee a smooth journey for you."
"Alright, looks like I need to expand my business there soon."
Qin Tian smiled and then waved his hand, bidding farewell to his friends.
"Goodbye, everyone!"
"Goodbye!"
Watching Qin Tian's silhouette in the distance, Zhuge Yu smiled slightly, thinking that it might not be long before they meet again in the Imperial Capital.
...
Qin Tian had booked the top-level Supreme VIP room on the spaceship, with the cost covered by the Dongfang Clan. However, as the spaceship and even the shipping company behind it belonged to the Dongfang Clan, it was merely reserving a room for him.
Pushing open the gilded cabin door, Qin Tian was astounded — this was no ordinary spaceship cabin, but a luxurious palace floating in space.
The entire room employed holographic projection technology to directly project the vast cosmos onto the smart glass walls surrounding him. At this moment, countless stars seemed within reach, and beneath his feet was a nano-alloy floor that automatically adjusted temperature, creating a nebula-like blue glow with every step.
In the center of the room floated a bed supported by anti-gravity devices, with a body made of memory liquid metal that automatically reshaped according to the user's physique.
Embedded at the head of the bed was a Spirit Crystal the size of a fist, emitting a gentle glow that calmed the mind.
Qin Tian adjusted the room from starry mode to normal mode, and instantly, the holographic cosmos inside receded like a tide. The transparency of the smart glass walls slowly adjusted, changing from the vast cosmos to an elegant interior.
Soft warm light spilled from the ceiling, and delicate wooden textures appeared on the walls. The floor transitioned from a cold technological blue to a warm dark brown wood texture.
Even the air seemed to change — the previously chilly feel unique to space cabins was now filled with the faint scent of sandalwood.
"Much more comfortable like this."
Qin Tian nodded. Although the starry mode was awe-inspiring, looking at it for too long inevitably brought a sense of drifting and loneliness. In contrast, the ordinary mode gave him a sense of grounded reassurance.
Lying on the bed, Qin Tian habitually conducted an after-action review.
This journey to Azure Wood Star lasted nearly a month. Though not long, the gains were exceptionally rich.
First, in terms of talents.
Two orange and one purple talents
[Purple Sky Thunder Body] evolved into [Celestial Punishment Divine Thunder]
[Gate of the Black Void] evolved into [Void Dominator]
New talent [Netherworld Ghost Contract]
[Celestial Punishment Divine Thunder] raised his attack ceiling, [Void Dominator] enhanced mobility and survival, and [Netherworld Ghost Contract] allowed him to cultivate a terrifying army of ghost souls.
In terms of Spiritual Artifacts, he acquired the Windwalker Boots, Stellar Armor, Soul Sealing Seal, a dagger, and a longsword.
In terms of elixirs and treasures, the harvest was even more delightful.
From the genius battle, he obtained All Things Essence Enhancing Pill, Celestial Thunder Body Refining Pill, Five Dragons Transformation Pill, and four other elixirs. In the later championship bouts, the families of sixteen geniuses came to watch and brought him gifts. Various elixirs and treasures were enough for him up to Tier Six.
Of course, the most precious were the Center of Wood Marrow and Void Dragon Blood given by the Dongfang Clan.
Regarding cultivation techniques, besides the Silver Level Martial Technique [Gale Eighteen Hammers] acquired from the genius battle, he also traded with the Dongfang Clan using a tendril from Jie La for three Silver Level Dark Element cultivation techniques and martial techniques.
Cultivation Technique [Infinite Shadow Prison Scripture]
Swordsmanship [Dark Moon Nine Kills]
Body Technique [Night Ghost Thousand Illusions]
These were the series of techniques tailored for the Night Demon Apostles.
[Infinite Shadow Prison Scripture] was a dark cultivation technique specializing in stealth and lurking, allowing cultivators to perfectly conceal their aura and merge with darkness, complementing the Night Demon's abilities.
[Dark Moon Nine Kills] pursued ultimate assassination efficiency, with each move aimed at taking lives. The techniques were plain yet hidden with lethal intent, executed silently. The most terrifying was its attached "Dark Moon Eclipse" effect, which caused wounds to fester continuously, slowly being consumed by the Power of Darkness even if not immediately fatal.
[Night Ghost Thousand Illusions] maximized the path of deception in body technique. When displayed, the user's form was as elusive as a ghost. A master could disappear from an enemy's sight in a mere instant of distraction, reappearing at the most unexpected angle.
Currently, the first-generation Night Demons, Li Qi and Feng Mochuan, could cultivate this set of techniques, especially Feng Mochuan. With the [Infinite Shadow Prison Scripture], breaking through to Tier Six was a certainty.
As for the second-generation Night Demons, they would need to contribute in order to train with these techniques.
Rewards and punishments balanced is the foundation for the long-term development of an organization.
Finally, of course, there was the growth of Jie La, Kazik, and himself.
Jie La broke through to Tier Six, absorbed large amounts of Wood Crystals and Purple Crystal Wall energy. After the breakthrough, her strength grew significantly, and her high natural talent made her stand out even in Tier Six.
Moreover, Jie La had already cleared the path to Tier Seven. By absorbing sufficient energy and reaching Peak Tier Six, she could ingest the Center of Wood Marrow to successfully advance to Tier Seven.
Kazik's current strength lagged behind Jie La's by quite a lot, but after absorbing half a bottle of Void Dragon Blood, breaking through to Tier Five was no problem. His species would also align more with the Void Species, likely awakening Void Class abilities.
If so, Kazik would achieve a species-level evolutionary leap, becoming a terrifying Spirit Beast no less than Jie La.
As for himself, he had progressed from Tier Four Four Stars to Tier Four Six Stars, with a huge increase in physique after absorbing dragon blood. The [Night Demon King] orb's color reached Medium Orange, nearing Deep Orange, while [Desolate Battle Body] achieved Deep Orange. Among the same level, besides the Holy Blood Descendants, other Spiritualists with golden bloodlines hardly surpassed him in terms of physical strength.
In terms of the diversity of combat methods, he could confidently say that he was the strongest in his generation; no one could be stronger than him, this "cheat" character.
The only thing somewhat weakened was the reserve of Evolution Points.
Evolving [Void Dominator] consumed 200W Evolution Points, and currently, only about 30W Evolution Points remained.
Azure Wood Star was not a place to harvest Evolution Points.
He hoped the next destination would provide ample opportunities for him to hunt.
He still had many talents waiting to breach the orange color.
