Chapter 133: Tier 3, Setting Out for the Elf Star
CHAPTER 133: CHAPTER 133: TIER 3, SETTING OUT FOR THE ELF STAR
Inside the Cultivation Room
A half-naked man sat cross-legged, with demon patterns entwined like thorns on his chest, sometimes bright, sometimes dim. The surging Qi and Blood turned into a substantial form, forming a blood-colored vortex around him. The muscle lines under his skin flowed like lava, with every subtle tremor causing ripples in the air, and his bones emitted a clear sound of jade clashing.
With a muffled roar like thunder, the Qi and Blood around the man suddenly reversed in, and the demon patterns shook violently, as if hit by something. After a moment of silence, he slowly opened his eyes, a hint of purple lightning flowing deep within his pupils.
Qin Tian stood up, with his muscles and bones ringing in unison, exuding a powerful and domineering aura, as if a real dragon had descended on earth. The air twisted into scale-like patterns under the tremors.
Hu~~
Qin Tian exhaled a hot breath, feeling the Power of Curse within him suppressed a bit more, he couldn’t help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
More than half a month has passed
All the exchanged resources were delivered into his hands.
Having smoothly initiated the "Nine Nether Thunder Brilliance Technique," he had now condensed the Power of the Nine Netherworld and Thunder Radiance Power. Moreover, driven by a Golden Level Technique, he had successfully broken through to Tier Three, condensing Star Source, and his Spiritual Energy surged dramatically.
While switching cultivation techniques, he also consumed two doses of True Dragon Essence Blood in batches.
True Dragon Essence Blood contained extremely violent and domineering energy. He did not dare to be careless, consuming only an appropriate amount each time to temper his physique through the dragon blood, enhancing his Physical Strength to a new level.
As a result, the Barbaric Dominator Body and Purple Sky Thunder Body also benefited; his Talent was strengthened, and the color of the light sphere deepened significantly. Now, the Barbaric Dominator Body had reached a deep purple, requiring about hundreds of thousands to a million Evolution Points to complete the final transformation.
Simultaneously, the dark and lightning energies from the Nether Dragon Blood and Thunder Dragon Blood also integrated into his Tier Three Star Source, helping him to break through another One Star, reaching a new height of Tier Three Two Stars.
In addition, after consuming the Rotting Spirit Bone Flower, the poison of the Poisonous Snake Body increased significantly, and the color of the light sphere deepened noticeably.
By now, he had digested the gains from this exchange. Spiritual Energy, Physique, and Spiritual Power advanced simultaneously, suppressing the spread of the Curse of the Evil God and liberating about sixty percent of his combat power.
This sixty percent combat power was much stronger than before his injury.
However, the defects of not being able to unleash all his power and not being able to fight prolonged battles still existed. Only by completely removing the Curse of the Evil God would Qin Tian know just how terrifying his current peak combat power truly was.
"Everything is ready; it’s time to set off."
Qin Tian left the Cultivation Room of the Star Element Tower, making a phone call to summon Li Qi to his side.
"Li Qi, are you ready?"
Li Qi nodded heavily, "Master, I have been ready for a long time, just waiting for your order."
This time, Qin Tian was going to take Li Qi along to the Elf Star.
Li Qi was a Tier Four Five Stars Spiritualist, possessing the Night Demon Physique, comparable to Silver Level lineage, and was also skilled in Lurking, assassination, Disguise, and Intelligence. Such a valuable and capable subordinate could not be kept idle and must be utilized.
"Alright, then get ready to set off."
Before departure, Qin Tian found Yan Qing to bid him farewell face to face.
"You seem to have recovered quite well."
Yan Qing looked at the obviously faded and shrunken demon patterns on Qin Tian’s chest and nodded with satisfaction, saying:
"Your decision is correct; you don’t need anyone else’s help. You are enough to resolve this crisis by yourself."
"Qin Tian, I won’t say much more. I hope that after some time, I can hear good news from you."
Qin Tian smiled and said:
"Yes, as soon as the Curse of the Evil God is resolved, I will bring you the good news."
"Haha, that’s the best!"
Yan Qing patted Qin Tian’s shoulder and blessed him:
"Have a safe journey!"
"Thank you, sir!"
Qin Tian saluted, waved goodbye to Yan Qing, and then boarded the spaceship heading to Elf Star.
......
About over 1,200 years ago, an expedition funded by the Dongfang Clan, while exploring the Azure Wood Star Realm and completing the star map, inadvertently discovered a life planet.
This planet was the Elf Star.
At that time, the Elf Star was still a paradise. Under the protection of the Tree God, the planet was vibrant, with forests covering more than seventy percent of the land.
When the human expedition descended on the planet, the animals in the forest immediately passed on the news to the Elf Race, and the experts from the Elf Race came forward to capture the entire expedition team, intending to see them as invaders and execute them.
At the critical moment, the Elf Elders spoke up and used the Tree God as a medium to communicate with the expedition members and learned about the galaxy-spanning universe overlord, the Galaxy Empire.
The Elf Race did not want to offend the Galaxy Empire but also did not want to communicate with these complex, somber humans, so they released the expedition and warned them not to come again.
After safely escaping, the expedition immediately reported the situation to the Dongfang Clan.
The Dongfang Clan quickly dispatched experts to this ancient and mysterious planet.
After witnessing the power of the Tree God and many experts of the Elf Race, the Dongfang Clan wisely gave up on the invasive methods, attempting instead to ally with the Elf Race for friendly exchanges.
However, the Elf Race was proud and stubborn. They strongly resisted humans’ filth, deceit, and complexity but also did not want to offend the powerful Empire.
Thus, the Elf Race opened an external window, but initially only for simple resource exchanges, unwilling to let humans descend on Elf Star and pollute their home.
Yet, 200 years ago, the Elf Race suddenly erupted into internal strife, with a faction named Dark Elves breaking away from the Elf Tribe.
They no longer worshiped nature and life but instead believed in Slaanesh, one of the four Evil Gods, with hedonism, corruption, release, and freedom as their creed.
Initially, the Dark Elves were very weak and were not taken seriously by the Elf Race.
However, the Dark Elves exploited this mindset of the Elves, along with their kind and peaceful nature, using various methods to quickly cause ordinary Elves to fall into becoming Dark Elves. Not only that, they could also corrupt the forest Spirit Beasts and even turn lush and dense forests into dark domains.
In just a few decades, the Dark Elves occupied more than twenty percent of the forest, with their numbers skyrocketing. Only then did the Elf Race finally realize the gravity of the situation and formally declared war on the Dark Elves.
But by this time, the climate of the Dark Elves had formed, and both sides engaged in brutal battles with severe casualties.
It’s important to know that the Elf fertility rate is not high, and they have a very long growth cycle. An Elf takes a hundred years to reach adulthood, so they could not bear such losses.
At this point, the Elf Race finally remembered the Empire. Despite heavy internal resistance, the Elf Race eventually sought help from the Empire, willing to pay a certain amount of remuneration to hire Spiritualists to participate in the battle.
That’s right, just hiring Spiritualists to fight, unwilling to let the Royal Army enter Elf Star.
They are concerned that the Empire’s artillery could destroy their livelihood.
After discussions, the Empire also accepted the Elf Race’s plan, opening channels to allow Spiritualists to enter Elf Star to fight for the Elves.
