Chapter 364: Chapter 328: Gathering Strength for the Charge (Purple), Night Demon Illusion
Bang bang—
The warriors of the First and Third Battalion quickly mobilized, dragging and gathering the scattered demon corpses: severed claws, charred wings, bodies split in half… Soon, a towering mountain of corpses over dozens of meters rose on the clearing, and the dark green blood flowed through the grooves, forming a fetid swamp on the ground.
“Fire Element Spiritualists, prepare!” Li Wufeng commanded loudly.
A dozen warriors stepped forward, hands forming seals, as crimson Spiritual Energy gathered into flickering flames in their palms.
They understood deeply that the demon corpses must not remain; these filthy things, even if rotting to mud, would become nourishment for strengthening other demons. Only fierce fire could completely purify them.
Boom!
The flames suddenly spouted like several fire dragons clinging to the mountain of corpses, instantly soaring into pillars of fire tens of meters high.
The demon hides and bones exploded in the high temperature, crackling sharply. The dark green blood ignited and turned into spectral blue flames, wildly intertwining with the crimson Spiritual Energy flames to form a strange web of fire.
The lowest layer of carcasses soon burned and warped, the claws of the demon’s phalanges crackling in the fire, transforming into blackened charcoal sticks; even the silver-winged demon’s hard metallic wings gradually reddened and softened under the Spiritual Energy flames, the edges curling into eerie arcs.
Thick smoke billowed into the sky with a pungent charred and sulphuric smell, seemingly painting the sky gray and black.
Occasionally, unburned demon limbs rolled off the corpse mountain and continued burning on the ground, sizzling and eventually turning into steaming black ash.
The flames burned ever brighter, as the corpse mountain collapsed and sank under the intense heat, its once hideous outline gradually blurring. The faint Demonic Qi attached to the corpses screamed under the burning Spiritual Flames, as if countless resentful souls were wailing in the fire, yet ultimately they couldn’t withstand the Purifying Power, and were completely incinerated into nothingness.
The soldiers gazed at the blazing sea of fire before them, feeling the scorching air mixed with the smell of charred ash, their hearts swirling with complex emotions.
Ten days ago, who could have believed that just the two battalions of the Chijin Battlegroup could tackle the tough bone of the second Demon Cave?
But now, the “miracle” lay in the ashes before them, created by their own hands.
After this battle, everyone in the team could expect a solid military merit award—this was their initial motivation for setting foot in the Demon Suppression Abyss.
Who didn’t come here with the determination to risk their life?
If not for earning military merit to secure themselves and change their destiny, who would be willing to coexist with demons every day, living life on a knife’s edge?
But earning military merit has always been about “following the right person.”
Following Yan Song yields only endless targeting and scheming, the brothers are just disposable pieces on his chessboard; but clinging to Camp Commander Qin’s leg not only ensures stable combat under his protection, but the military merits fall into one’s lap like ripe fruit.
Everyone was well aware that the First and Third Battalions had long torn face with Yan Song’s Chijin Battlegroup, from top to bottom, no one wanted to obey the orders of this commander who viewed human life as mere grass.
But the military has rules like mountains, openly defying orders is a taboo, and ultimately someone has to stand up and bear the pressure Yan Song brings—that person could only be Qin Tian, Camp Commander Qin.
The warriors quietly glanced at the young figure standing by the fire, staring at the flickering flames with a tall and upright silhouette like a pine tree.
Someone took half a step towards Qin Tian, and then more people subconsciously moved closer, as if this figure could shield them from all future storms.
At this moment, Qin Tian didn’t notice the anomaly behind him, his attention was nearly all on the system panel.
In this battle, most of the demons in the second Demon Cave were killed by his Explosive Iron Ball, numbering over 2000, adding two Tier Six demons, he gained over 3 million Evolution Points, with the Total Evolution Points breaking 9 million, reaching a staggering 9.17 million.
Such a massive amount of Evolution Points is enough to enhance two or three Purple Talents to Orange, or even possibly elevate a Deep Orange Talent to an even higher level, which is above Gold—Holy Blood.
Currently, the color of the [Desolate Battle Body] is the deepest, having reached Deep Orange, yet not at the critical point of Deep Orange. If all Evolution Points are invested in this Talent, but ultimately can’t cross the final step, it would indeed waste this rare resource.
On the other hand, compared to [Desolate Battle Body], Qin Tian is more hopeful to first enhance the Talent [Night Demon King] to Holy Blood Level.
The reason is simple, once [Night Demon King] ascends to Holy Blood, Li Qi, Feng Mochuan, and all Night Demon Apostles will undergo major bloodline evolutions, their power skyrocketing.
This driving effect is something [Desolate Battle Body] does not have.
So currently Qin Tian temporarily doesn’t plan to use these Evolution Points, anyway, being in the Demon Suppression Abyss, demons are like leeks endlessly harvested, allowing for more flexible use of Evolution Points.
Besides Evolution Points, he also gained some new Talents, among them the Purple Talents are provided by the Magma Demon and Silver-winged Demon.
The Magma Demon’s Talent is—[Magma Rock Demon Physique][Fiery Regeneration]
One is a fire-type constitution Talent, the other is a recovery type Talent.
In terms of Talent level, Purple Talents are certainly not bad, but for Qin Tian now, he no longer wants to blindly stack the number of Talents, but rather focus more on the compatibility of Talents with his own system.
