I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield

Chapter 428: Chapter 386: Void Dominator Enhanced, Returning to the Dark Demon Realm

Hoo—

In front of everyone’s eyes, Dongfang Yu swiftly approached Qin Tian without any small talk and got straight to the point: "Colonel Qin Tian, a fourth space portal has appeared in the Dark Demon Realm. We urgently need to use your space teleportation ability to send as many troops over as possible."

"The fourth?!"

These words were like a thunderclap, instantly causing exclamations and commotion to erupt around.

For centuries, the three portals had been unshakeable; how could an extra one appear out of thin air?

"Alright."

Qin Tian didn’t hesitate for a second and nodded strongly.

Every second of delay could mean tens of thousands of demons breaking through the portal and rushing into the Empire. We must race against time to reach the Dark Demon Realm.

However, the Dark Demon Realm is quite far from the Infernal Demon Sea.

Previously, while trying to rescue Li Qi, he had traveled at the fastest speed possible, which still took several hours—even though that speed seemed incredible to outsiders, it was far from enough to deal with the current crisis.

His eyes focused, and he glanced at the 9 million plus Evolution Points he had accumulated recently. Without a moment’s hesitation, he infused them all into the Void Dominator talent.

In an instant, the faint orange Talent Light Sphere within his dantian trembled violently, emitting a layered halo that spread outwards.

Within just a few breaths, the light sphere’s color changed from light orange to medium orange, and the Talent Level suddenly leaped a notch.

The warriors around only sensed a mild spatial fluctuation, assuming he was adjusting his teleportation ability, and didn’t think much of it.

But Qin Tian himself clearly felt an earth-shattering change—

It was as if the thin veil in front of his eyes had been suddenly lifted, revealing the entire world to him in greater clarity.

In the air floated countless silver threads, barely visible to the naked eye, forming the foundational nodes of space. Now, they were as clear as palm lines; even the flow of Spiritual Energy in his body resonated subtly with these spatial nodes, enabling him to tear apart the void with a flick of the wrist.

Qin Tian took a deep breath, channeling his evolved spatial insights into his palm. Spiritual Energy inside him surged like a river to his fingertips, creating a violent resonance with the surrounding spatial nodes.

"Buzz—"

A low hum echoed through the heavens and earth, as the void in front of Qin Tian rippled like a stone striking water.

Immediately, a pitch-black fissure appeared out of nowhere and began expanding rapidly. The edges of the fissure flickered with ghostly blue arcs of electricity, signs of spatial energy leaking. As the fissure widened, the arcs became denser, ultimately forming an enormous Void Gate hundreds of meters wide and long.

Inside the gate lay an abyssal darkness, seemingly connecting to another world, where countless stars-like specks of light flickered, representing stable coordinates within the spatial turbulence.

Such an immense Void Gate suspended in mid-air, blocking out the sky and sun, delivered a visually stunning impact that shook the soul.

Activating such a gigantic Void Gate involved an unimaginable consumption of Spiritual Energy.

Qin Tian’s face turned pale at a visibly fast rate, beads of sweat densely covering his forehead. The Spiritual Energy within him drained rapidly like a flood through a breached dam. Just when he was about to falter, the bracelet on his wrist, Jie La, suddenly emitted a layer of verdant light, infusing him with a steady stream of pure energy to replenish his depleted Spiritual Energy.

With Jie La’s support, Qin Tian’s slightly trembling body gradually steadied, and the output of Spiritual Energy to maintain the Void Gate returned to stability.

Dongfang Yu looked at the colossal Void Gate before him, eyes filled with shock and delight.

He quickly approached Qin Tian and asked, "Commander Qin, how many people can this Void Gate accommodate?"

Feeling the balance between his Spiritual Energy consumption and Jie La’s support, Qin Tian responded in a deep voice, "Everyone."

"Everyone?" Hearing this, Dongfang Yu and the surrounding people instantly displayed expressions of wild joy. They initially thought the Void Gate could accommodate only ten thousand people at most, but it turned out it could hold everyone.

"Excellent!" Dongfang Yu exclaimed excitedly, "All battalions, listen up! Immediately organize your ranks and proceed into the Void Gate!"

With the order given, the fully prepared battalions swiftly moved into action. They organized in sequence and proceeded in an orderly process towards the Void Gate.

The soldiers’ faces were filled with tension and worry, but the thought of reaching the Dark Demon Realm quickly to stop the demon invasion bolstered their steps with determination.

To maximize efficiency, Dongfang Yu immediately instructed the nearby messenger, "Send the Wind Element Spiritualist squad forward to assist!"

Moments later, over a hundred Spiritualists with wind wings took to the air, forming a neat array in front of the Void Gate. As they simultaneously channeled their Spiritual Energy, ribbons of pale cyan wind unfurled like spirited silk, perfectly matching the width of the Void Gate.

"All units, take note! Advance using the wind ribbons!"

Following the commander’s order, the soldiers aligned in formation stepped onto the wind ribbons, instantly lifted by a gentle but powerful airflow. Where they previously needed to walk in, now they transformed into dozens of parallel streams, propelled by an invisible force, flying smoothly and swiftly into the Void Gate.

The wind ribbons circulated continuously, precisely delivering one group of soldiers after another into the gate. The entire process was orderly, fully utilizing every inch of space within the Void Gate.

Initially, only a few thousand people could pass through per minute, but as the Wind Element Spiritualists gradually found their rhythm, the speed increased, ultimately allowing over ten thousand people to be transported per minute.

The massive flow of people was like a stream merging into the deep sea, endlessly disappearing into the profound gate.

Half an hour later, as the final group of soldiers vanished into the Void Gate, Qin Tian glanced at Li Qi and the others beside him and said in a deep voice, "Let’s go."

With that, he strode boldly into the darkness.

The moment he crossed the spatial portal, Qin Tian felt a familiar sense of pressure.

As he stood firm, Dongfang Yu handed over two Jade Bottles: "Commander Qin, these are Spirit Revitalizing Pills specially made by the Military Department. Quickly take them to restore your Spiritual Energy."

Qin Tian did not decline, uncorked the bottle, and swallowed two lustrous elixirs. The pills melted in his mouth, turning into two streams of refreshing warmth that flowed into his dantian, where his previously depleted Spiritual Energy instantly began to rise.

"Thank you, Commander Qin," Dongfang Yu said sincerely.

Qin Tian nodded slightly, once again activating the Void Dominator talent.

This time, his command over the spatial nodes was even more proficient, and within a few breaths, another Void Gate hundreds of meters long and wide appeared before them.

With prior experience, everyone moved in with even more order, and the coordination with the Wind Element Spiritualists became increasingly seamless.

One gate, two gates, three gates...

Qin Tian, like an untiring machine, continuously opened ten Void Gates one after another, under the dual support of the Spirit Revitalizing Pills and Jie La.

Each opening and closing of a gate was accompanied by intense spatial energy fluctuations yet remained stable as ever.

When the final Void Gate gradually dissipated, an unilluminated world was laid out before everyone.

Qin Tian gazed upon the dense and neatly arrayed military formation in front of him and exhaled a long breath of relief.

Millions of troops had finally reached the Dark Demon Realm in the shortest amount of time.
