Bang! Bang! The warriors of the First Battalion and Third Battalion moved swiftly, dragging and collecting the scattered demon corpses—broken claws, charred wings, bodies split in half—soon piling them into a mountain dozens of meters high in the open space.Dark green blood flowed down the gullies of the corpse mountain, forming a foul-smelling swamp on the ground.“Fire-element Spiritual Energy Users, prepare!” Li Wufeng ordered loudly.A dozen warriors stepped forward, forming hand seals, and crimson spiritual energy gathered into flickering flames in their palms.They knew that demon corpses must not be left behind; these defiled things, even if they rotted into mud, would become nutrients for other demons to grow stronger.Only fierce fire could thoroughly purify them.Boom!Flames suddenly surged, like several fire dragons climbing the corpse mountain, instantly erupting into a column of fire dozens of feet high.Demon fur and bones exploded in the high heat, making crisp cracking sounds.After the dark green blood ignited, it turned into eerie blue flames that wildly darted around, intertwining with the crimson spiritual energy flames to form a strange fiery net.The corpses at the bottom layer quickly shriveled and deformed from the burning; the finger bones of the Claw Demons cracked and popped in the flames, turning into charred sticks.Even the hard metallic wings of the Silverwing Demons gradually turned red and softened under the scorching spiritual energy flames, their edges curling into strange arcs.Thick smoke billowed into the sky, carrying a pungent burnt smell and sulfurous scent, as if to dye the sky gray-black.Occasionally, unburned demon limbs rolled down from the corpse mountain, continuing to burn on the ground with a sizzling sound, eventually turning into a puddle of steaming black ash.The flames burned brighter and brighter, and the corpse mountain continuously collapsed and sank in the high heat.Its originally twisted outline gradually became blurred.The faint demonic energy clinging to the corpses let out shrill screams under the scorching spiritual energy flames, like countless wronged souls wailing in the fire, yet ultimately unable to resist the power of purification, completely turning into nothingness.The soldiers looked at the blazing inferno before them, feeling the burnt smell mixed in the scorching air, their hearts churning with complex emotions.Ten days ago, who would have believed that just two battalions of the Crimson Gold Battle Group could crack the tough nut of Demon Cave Number Two?But now, the “miracle” lay in the ashes before them, created by their own hands.After this battle, everyone in the team would receive heavy military commendations—this was precisely their original intention for entering the Demon Suppression Abyss.Who wasn't risking their life to come to this demonic realm?If not for military merits and changing their fate, who would be willing to live daily alongside demons, constantly putting their heads on the line?But earning military merits has always been about “following the right person.”Following Yan Song only brought endless targeting and schemes; the brothers were merely pawns on his chessboard, expendable at any time.But holding onto Battalion Commander Qin’s leg, not only could they fight safely under his protection, but military merits also fell into their pockets as easily as ripe fruit.Everyone knew that the First Battalion and Third Battalion had already fallen out with the Crimson Gold Battle Group led by Yan Song.From top to bottom, no one was willing to obey that regiment commander who regarded human lives as grass.However, military rules are like mountains; open defiance is a major taboo.At that time, someone would have to step forward to bear the pressure from Yan Song—and that person could only be Qin Tian, Battalion Commander Qin.The warriors quietly looked at the young figure standing by the fire.He was staring blankly at the flickering flames, his back as straight as a pine tree.It was unclear who took the first half-step towards Qin Tian, and then more people subconsciously moved closer, as if that figure could block all future storms.At this moment, Qin Tian did not notice the abnormality behind him; his attention was almost entirely on the system panel.In this battle, most of the demons in Demon Cave Number Two were killed by his Explosions, numbering over 2,000, plus two Sixth-Tier demons, which earned him over 3 million Evolution Points, bringing his total Evolution Points past 9 million to an astonishing 9.17 million.Such a vast amount of Evolution Points was enough to strengthen two to three purple talents to orange, and even had a chance to strengthen a deep orange talent to a higher level, which is above gold—Holy Blood.Currently, the Great Wilderness Battle Body had the deepest color, reaching deep orange, but it had not yet reached the critical point of deep orange.If all Evolution Points were invested in this talent, but it ultimately failed to take the final step, it would truly be a waste of this rare resource.On the other hand, compared to the Great Wilderness Battle Body, Qin Tian hoped to strengthen the Night Demon Apostle talent to the Holy Blood level first.The reason was also simple: once the Night Demon Apostle ascended to Holy Blood, Li Qi, Feng Mocheng, and all Night Demon Apostles would undergo a great bloodline evolution, greatly advancing their strength.This kind of drive effect was not possessed by the Great Wilderness Battle Body.Therefore, Qin Tian temporarily did not plan to use these Evolution Points; anyway, being in the Demon Suppression Abyss, demons were like leeks that could be harvested endlessly.The use of Evolution Points could be more flexible.Besides Evolution Points, he also gained some new talents, among which the purple talents were provided by the Lava Demon and Silverwing Demon.The Lava Demon's talents were—Lava Demon Body and Blazing Regeneration.One was a fire-element physique talent, and the other was a recovery-focused talent.In terms of talent level, purple talents were certainly not bad, but for Qin Tian, he was no longer willing to casually stack the number of talents.Instead, he focused more on the compatibility of talents with his own system.He was based on the two orange body-type talents, Night Demon Apostle and Great Wilderness Battle Body, combined with several skill-type orange talents such as Green Field Monarch, Void Dominator, Divine Right of Spiritual Intelligence, and Heavenly Punishment Divine Lightning, with other purple talents serving as Assist.Lightning and Darkness were his main spiritual energy directions, and the cultivation method he practiced was the golden-tier secret manual “Nine Nether Lightning Radiance Art,” which combined lightning and darkness.The two talents, Lava Demon Body and Blazing Regeneration, were not very compatible with his talent system, and it was difficult for them to effectively boost his combat power.Therefore, he temporarily put these two talents into the recycle bin.If he encountered a scenario requiring fire-element talents in the future, he could then fuse them with his body.The Silverwing Demon's two purple talents were—Silverwing Flash and Charged Dash.The effect of Silverwing Flash highly overlapped with Void Dominator, and in terms of comprehensiveness, it was far inferior to Void Dominator.Therefore, Qin Tian also threw it into the recycle bin, but the second talent, Charged Dash, was quite interesting.Name: Charged Dash (Purple)Type: Active TalentDescription: Upon active activation, the body shoots out like an arrow from a bowstring, with initial speed increased by 50% compared to normal.During the continuous dash, a spiral airflow vortex will form around the body, entering a charged state.During the charge, speed can be increased up to 250% of normal.When the dash is actively terminated or the charge reaches its limit, the accumulated kinetic energy will explode all at once, and the damage of the next attack will increase with the speed limit and charge duration, capable of unleashing a charged strike of up to 1000%.“This talent is really good.”A satisfied look flashed in Qin Tian’s eyes.Charged Dash was a talent that continuously accelerated and could unleash a tenfold explosive strike at its peak.It had its advantages, but also obvious flaws.First, since it was ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) a charge, the commotion would naturally not be small.Dashing straight towards an enemy, no one but a fool would stand still and wait for you to attack.And during the Charged Dash, changing direction would affect speed, but if one couldn't change direction flexibly, it would be difficult to hit the enemy.And this was precisely the awkwardness of this talent.But for Qin Tian, none of these problems existed.He could completely rely on the Gate of Void and Void Flash to charge at enemies from any direction.Just thinking about it created a vivid image.Without hesitation, Qin Tian decisively fused Charged Dash with his body.While the First Battalion and Third Battalion were conducting post-battle cleanup, the battle in Demon Cave Number One was also drawing to a close.At this time, Yan Song also received secret reports from Li Fei and the spy embedded in the First Battalion.What!Yan Song’s hand, gripping the sound transmission stone, suddenly stiffened, and a deep look of shock appeared in his eyes.Demon Cave Number Two was completely destroyed.Qin Tian, relying on his own strength, continuously killed two Sixth-Tier demons, determining the outcome of this battle.This was a result he had never anticipated.In his imagination, Qin Tian might be able to rescue some people through spatial teleportation, but he could not change the battle that was originally destined to be a defeat.After all, Demon Cave Number Two, both in the number of demons and top-tier combat power, was enough to overwhelm the two battalions.However, facts proved that he had greatly underestimated Qin Tian.Qin Tian, with only two battalions, completely destroyed the entire Demon Cave Number Two, and continuously killed two Sixth-Tier demons.This single action established his position in the army, and at the same time, it made his previous actions look like a clown’s.However, Li Fei’s report did contain an important piece of information.“You mean, Qin Tian himself admitted that he used a Rune Sniper Rifle to blow the Lava Demon’s head off?” Yan Song’s tone deepened, and information about the Ten Great Famous Guns flashed through his mind.In his understanding, only the Ten Great Famous Guns could snipe and kill Sixth-Tier powerhouses.Among the Ten Great Famous Guns, there were two sniper-type famous guns—Annihilation Star Track and Dark Moon.According to Li Fei’s description, Qin Tian’s sniper rifle was very likely Dark Moon, one of the Ten Great Famous Guns.Thinking of this, a fiery gleam appeared in Yan Song’s eyes.After acquiring Burning Heaven Purgatory and witnessing its terrifying power, he deeply realized the value of the Ten Great Famous Guns.Each famous gun represented a legend and had its unique qualities.The power of Burning Heaven Purgatory needed no further explanation, but the movement of this hand cannon was too great, with a rather long wind-up, making it more suitable for dealing with large-scale enemies.The Dark Moon Sniper Rifle, with its ultra-long range and high stealth, was designed for hunting single high-level enemies.If he could obtain this famous gun, with two famous guns in hand, he would be even more invincible and unstoppable on the first floor of the Demon Suppression Abyss.However, he also knew that taking the Dark Moon Sniper Rifle from Qin Tian would not be so simple.Qin Tian was able to slay a Sixth-Tier Silverwing Demon in direct combat; from this, it seemed his combat power was no less than his own.Secondly, Qin Tian was from the Seventh Bureau, and his temperament and methods were not to be underestimated.Moreover, he brought his own team, which, according to Li Fei, were all elite soldiers and strong generals.This guy was like an iron barrel, seemingly without weaknesses on the surface.Acquiring the Dark Moon Sniper Rifle would likely require a long-term plan.Yan Song’s eyes were deep, carrying a hint of coldness and ruthlessness.The more outstanding Qin Tian performed, the more determined he was to eliminate this person.Within the Crimson Gold Battle Group, he could not tolerate a force beyond his control, nor could he allow anyone to threaten his position.After obtaining the Dark Moon Sniper Rifle, Qin Tian also could not be allowed to live.“Battalion Commander, that’s all I know about Yan Song.”Li Fei stood respectfully in front of Qin Tian, meticulously recounting everything he knew about Yan Song.“Good, that’s all for now, you can go back.”Qin Tian nodded.Now that Li Fei had been imprinted with his Soul Imprint, he could not only learn about Yan Song from Li Fei but also intentionally convey some information to Yan Song through Li Fei’s words.“Yes!”Li Fei exited the tent, and then Li Qi walked in.“Li Qi, I want to eliminate Yan Song.”As soon as Li Qi stood firm, he heard Qin Tian’s calm and resolute voice.Li Qi’s eyes flashed, and he said in a low voice:“Boss, I’ll help you get rid of him.”Even though Yan Song was a Sixth-Tier Golden Bloodline Spiritual Energy User, in the eyes of a professional assassin, everyone had flaws, and Yan Song was no exception.“No, Yan Song cannot die suspiciously.”Qin Tian waved his hand.He knew Li Qi had the ability to make Yan Song die silently; the simplest way was poison.However, Yan Song was, after all, the commander of the Crimson Gold Battle Group.His death would definitely attract the attention of the Sixth War Zone Command.Once the superiors discovered any clues, it would be no small trouble for him.Therefore, he wanted to eliminate Yan Song in a way that no one could find fault with, a reasonable way.Now, he already had a plan, but this plan still required Li Qi’s cooperation.“Li Qi, you will awaken a new ability next.I need you to use this ability to cooperate with me.” Qin Tian said seriously.New ability?Li Qi’s eyes lit up, recalling what had happened not long ago, his anticipation growing even stronger.Qin Tian opened the system panel.He had previously integrated the Magnetic Field Sense talent into the Night Demon Apostle.After successful fusion, Li Qi, Feng Mocheng, and some Night Demon Apostles had awakened this ability.And now, he wanted to integrate the Shapeshift talent into the Night Demon Apostle, allowing Li Qi and others to awaken the ability to change their appearance and physique.The blue light sphere touched the orange light sphere and was almost instantly swallowed.Soon, a new ability was added to the Night Demon Apostle’s description—Nightmare Shapeshift.Its effect was the same as Shapeshift, allowing one to freely change body shape, face, hairstyle, voice, and other physical characteristics.After awakening this ability, the Nightmare would become a nightmare for all enemies.In an instant, a strange hot current surged through Li Qi’s bloodline, like magma rushing through his limbs and bones.He trembled all over, his pupils suddenly widened, reflecting his hands undergoing a transformation—his knuckles elongated, his skin texture reorganized at a visible speed, and even the thin calluses on his palms subtly shifted.Crack, crack, crack—the crisp sounds of bones shifting connected into a continuous stream, as if countless gears were turning within his body.His shoulder width suddenly widened by half a foot, his spine arched slightly like a snake then flattened, and his originally average build grew an inch taller in a few breaths.His shoulder and back lines became indistinguishable from Qin Tian’s outline in his memory.His facial skin rippled finely, his cheekbones slowly rose then narrowed, his jawline became sharper, and even the curve of his eye corners subtly adjusted.In just three breaths, the familiar face in the mirror had completely disappeared, replaced by a face identical to Qin Tian’s; even the faint sharpness in his brows was perfectly mimicked.Li Qi raised his hand to touch his cheek; the sensation from his fingertips was strange yet real.He took a deep breath, tried to open his mouth, and what came out of his throat was no longer his usual voice, but a clear, cold voice identical to Qin Tian’s:“Boss, what is this—?”The moment the words fell, even he himself was stunned—the intonation, breathing, and even the subtle firmness at the end of the words were exactly like Qin Tian’s usual manner of speaking, as if he had truly become another person.In that instant, Li Qi’s pupils contracted, followed by a burst of intense ecstasy in his chest.As an assassin, he knew too well how terrifying such an ability would make him.Qin Tian looked at the “Qin Tian” before him, who was like a copy-paste, and a slight curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.Yan Song, let’s see who is the hunter and who is the prey next.
