Previously, after Qin Tian killed an enemy, any new talents he acquired would usually be thrown into the recycling bin first.He would then study them before deciding whether or not to merge them with his body, as most talents didn't catch his eye.However, Qin Tian was very interested in these two talents and immediately decided to integrate them into his body.After the two talent light orbs merged, he immediately had a new sensation.Metal Sense washed over his consciousness like a tide, and the surrounding world instantly changed: all metals within a hundred meters became visible in his consciousness.The iron ore in the rock wall was a solid dark red block, and the metals in the nearby slag were scattered like countless stars.A stronger sensation came from the black frost blade in his hand; the metallic Texture flowing within the blade transformed into a surging silver river in his perception.Every subtle tremor resonated with his heartbeat, clearer and more intense than any other metal, as if tightly intertwined with his soul.“Interesting,” Qin Tian chuckled softly, and with a slight mental command, a palm-sized iron block appeared in his palm.These were iron ore blocks from the Black Cloud Commerce warehouse, which he had now swept clean.He activated Gold Devouring Hardening, and a faint blue glow immediately appeared in his palm.The iron block instantly transformed into a stream of silver-gray particles upon contact, drilling into his skin through his fingers.There was no burning pain, only a tingling, swelling sensation—The particle stream flowed through his blood vessels like countless tiny metal fish, and wherever it passed, the muscles beneath his skin seemed to become firmer.Of course, with just one piece of metal, the effect couldn't be immediate, but this talent possessed extremely high potential.Qin Tian didn't hesitate, decisively investing 150,000 evolution points to evolve it into a purple talent.【Name】Gold Devouring Transformation (Purple)【Type】Active【Description】1. Gold Devouring Enhancement: When devouring metal, it triggers maximum efficiency conversion, instantly permeating bones and muscles with high-density essence particles, deeply integrating with body tissues.Metal essence fills muscle gaps and strengthens bone density, significantly enhancing body defense and synchronously increasing strength with the degree of integration.2. Weapon Forging Ability: Temporarily extracts all metal essence within a certain range, condensing it into a flowing liquid metal torrent in the palm, which can be shaped into any weapon form by thought.“Gold Devouring Transformation.”The corners of Qin Tian’s mouth curved upwards; with this talent, he could continuously improve his defense and strength by devouring metal.But now was not the time.Qin Tian turned his head, looking at the lingering anxiety on Allen’s face, and said, “Don’t worry, I’ve already found them.”Upon hearing this, surprise immediately burst forth in Allen’s eyes.“What, you’re here and still unwilling to confess honestly?”Inside the dark mine shaft, damp air mingled with the smell of rust and blood.Xia Shangji, the president of Black Cloud Commerce, slowly wiped his fingertips, his faint smile sweeping over the two young people before him, as if he were observing prey in a cage.The man’s hands were bound behind him with chains, his upper body bare, muscles well-defined, his chest and back covered with unhealed sword wounds, and a scar near his eye.It added a fierce aura to his resolute eyes.He stood there, his spine straight, as if even in dire straits, he had not shown a hint of surrender.The woman had long pink hair, pure and beautiful, her hands bound behind her with chains, and her lips were pale, clearly indicating internal injuries.She slightly lowered her head, seemingly enduring physical discomfort.“President Xia, I’ve told you hundreds of times,” Vivian’s voice carried a helpless, almost tearful tone, “Luo Xiu is a terrible navigator.You could make him walk this path ten times, and he’d still get lost next time.And I’m naturally afraid of the dark; at the time, I was only focused on being nervous, so how could I remember which fork in the road it was… Give me a little more time, and I’ll definitely remember.”She didn’t dare say that she had never been down the mine shaft at all.This lie was their only bargaining chip for survival; once exposed, a ruthless figure like Xia Shangji, who regarded human lives as mere trifles, would not hesitate to wring their necks.Allen, if you don’t come soon, we’re really going to become dried bones in this mine shaft.Vivian lowered her eyelids, concealing the surging anxiety in her eyes.“Miss Vivian, there’s no need to play smart in front of me.” Xia Shangji suddenly reached out, his cold fingertips pinching her chin, forcing her to look up.His tone remained calm, but his grip gradually tightened.“I’m giving you one last chance.If you don’t speak, your companion might lose something.”Before his words faded, he flicked his wrist.The scar-faced thug beside him immediately drew the long saber from his waist, and the sharp blade “thudded” onto Luo Xiu’s left arm.The blade reflected the sudden rage burning in Luo Xiu’s eyes.“Don’t hurt him!”Vivian suddenly lifted her head, her pink hair wildly sweeping across her cheeks, “I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you right now!”“That’s a good girl.” Xia Shangji released his hand, his fingertips still feeling the warmth of her skin, and a cruel smile curled at his lips.“Lead the way.”Vivian looked at the dozen or so crisscrossing passages before her, her heart pounding as if it would shatter her ribs.How could she know which path led to the so-called spiritual spring?But at this moment, she could only brace herself and casually picked a deep passage, lifting her foot to walk.Just then, “Who’s there?!” Xia Shangji suddenly roared, his gaze, sharp as an eagle’s, darting towards the shadow on the right.Everyone’s eyes instantly focused there.In the darkness, five Black-Robed figures silently emerged, their pitch-black masks gleaming coldly under the reflection of the mining lamp.Their footsteps were so light they seemed weightless, as if they were reapers crawling out from the depths of the earth.Shadowmoon Tower!Xia Shangji’s pupils suddenly constricted.This mysterious intelligence organization was not only terrifyingly well-informed, but its assassins were all exceptionally skilled; Fourth-tier was just the entry level, and rumors said there were even Seventh-tier top experts overseeing it.“President Xia’s perception is quite keen.” The Black-Robed Man at the forefront spoke, his voice hoarse like sandpaper rubbing wood.“My Black Cloud Commerce and Shadowmoon Tower have always kept to ourselves.” Xia Shangji’s hand subtly rested on the hilt of his saber, his tone cold, “Why are you following us?”“Naturally, we’ve come for the spiritual spring.” The Black-Robed Man chuckled softly, his gaze under the mask sweeping towards the depths of the passage.“Ownerless things are shared by those who find them.Does President Xia intend to keep it all to himself?”Xia Shangji stared at him, saying coldly, “I naturally have no intention of keeping it all to myself, but I also don’t want to do someone else’s bidding.You and I will explore our own areas and not interfere with each other.”The Black-Robed Man looked at him calmly, then suddenly, his body trembled, and his tone became strange.“President Xia, you might want to look behind you first.”What did he mean?Xia Shangji quickly turned his head, his pupils suddenly constricting.While he was talking to Shadowmoon Tower, Luo Xiu and Vivian behind him had disappeared.Thump, thump, thump—The sound of footsteps from deep within the passage was exceptionally clear in the silent mine shaft, each step like a heavy hammer striking everyone’s hearts.The beam of the mining lamp pierced through the thick darkness, first illuminating several pairs of dust-covered boots, ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) with fine metal slag embedded in the sole patterns, then the beam slowly moved upwards.Under the dim light, a pair of eyes shone astonishingly bright, like cold stars, revealing undisguised sharpness.When that chiseled face was fully revealed, Xia Shangji’s expression instantly darkened, as if he had been splashed with a basin of ice water, his lips pressed into a tight straight line.“Allen.” He gritted his teeth as he uttered the two words, his voice filled with suppressed rage.Behind Allen, Luo Xiu and Vivian stood there, the chains that had bound them broken into several pieces, scattered at their feet.A man’s hand rested on their shoulders, a faint green light swirling around his fingertips.The green light permeated Luo Xiu’s body, and the gruesome sword wounds on him healed at a visible speed, the torn flesh gradually smoothing out; Vivian’s originally pale cheeks also flushed with color, and her breathing gradually stabilized, her internal injuries clearly improving rapidly.The man withdrew his hand, the green light silently dissipating, and he looked up at Xia Shangji, his gaze calm and unwavering.
