I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield Chapter 1093 - 670: Source Blood Pill (Part 2)

As expected, it’s Great Elder Yun He Li.

Dongfang Haoyue and Zhuge Yu exchanged a glance. At the moment they saw the Source Blood Pill, their hearts had already made a judgment.

Currently, in the entire Empire, there are only two Ninth Grade Alchemists capable of refining the Source Blood Pill: Master of the Dan Tower, Xu Lin, and the former master, now Great Elder, Yun He Li.

Qin Tian, however, saved Yun He Li’s life. During the Dan Tower crisis, Qin Tian ventured alone into the subspace and brought this old alchemist back unscathed from the hands of the Xieshen Association.

This act of kindness, Great Elder Yun He Li has always kept in mind, so the Source Blood Pill is most likely a gift to Qin Tian in gratitude.

"Such a precious elixir, and you’re just giving it to me like this?" Dongfang Haoyue’s voice contained a touch of indescribable emotion, as if grateful, yet incredulous.

His fingers, gripping the porcelain bottle, turned slightly white, as if fearing the elixir might disappear if he let go.

Qin Tian: "Isn’t your bloodline impure? So, I’m giving you this elixir. Consider it a gift to curry favor with my future brother-in-law."

"Is it that simple?" Dongfang Haoyue pressed on. He couldn’t believe anyone would give away such a precious item without reason, even if that person was his future brother-in-law.

"You still don’t believe it?"

Qin Tian said, somewhat annoyed, "If you don’t want it, return the Source Blood Pill to me. I have plenty of people under my command who need it, and I’m not worried about giving it away."

"I want it! Anyone who doesn’t want it is a fool!"

Dongfang Haoyue instinctively clutched the porcelain bottle tightly in his hand, as fast as if he feared someone might snatch it away. He took a deep breath, and his voice became earnest: "Qin Tian, thank you. This elixir is extremely important to me."

His tone was heavy, each word carrying immense weight.

Qin Tian could also detect the excitement and solemnity in Dongfang Haoyue’s voice and smiled, saying, "Then make good use of it and strive to break through to Tier Seven in one go."

"Yes, I will." Dongfang Haoyue said resolutely.

With the aid of the Source Blood Pill, now at the peak of Tier Six, he had full confidence to advance to Tier Seven and safely get through the Celestial Human Three Tribulations.

The Source Blood Pill could not only further purify his bloodline and enhance his cultivation talent and foundation, but also directly strengthen his physique and spiritual power, significantly increasing his odds of overcoming the Three Tribulations.

"Okay, let’s stop chatting then. Contact me if you need anything." With that, Qin Tian ended the transmission.

The light from the Sound Transmission Shell slowly dimmed, and silence returned to the tent.

Dongfang Haoyue held the Sound Transmission Shell, which was gradually cooling in his hand, without moving for a long time.

After an unknown amount of time, he turned his head to Zhuge Yu, a genuine smile appearing at the corner of his mouth: "A Yu, I seem to have gained even more confidence."

"Young master, congratulations." Zhuge Yu’s face also showed a sincere smile.

He understood deeply how timely this Source Blood Pill was and how important it was to Dongfang Haoyue.

The purity of the bloodline had always been Dongfang Haoyue’s biggest shortcoming. Despite his profound comprehension and talent for recognizing people, he was constantly bound by the shackles of his bloodline, unable to truly unleash his potential.

The appearance of the Source Blood Pill was like a key, unlocking the lock that had trapped him for years.

While happy for Dongfang Haoyue, Zhuge Yu couldn’t help feeling extremely grateful for Qin Tian’s generosity.

He had long been bound with Dongfang Haoyue, sharing glory and loss.

If Dongfang Haoyue could pass the imminent major trial, his personal benefit and that of the entire Zhuge Clan would be immense.

But if Dongfang Haoyue failed... the Zhuge Clan might rely on their strong foundation to pull through, but he personally might not have a good outcome.

"Qin Tian, thank you." Zhuge Yu murmured inwardly.

...

The tent’s curtain was lifted.

Qin Tian’s form flickered and appeared atop a mountain peak.

The fierce wind swept across the ridge, causing his robe to flutter loudly.

Standing at the highest point, he overlooked the distant mountain range lying like a three-headed giant beast on the ground—San Tuo Mountain.

Around him, Xiong, Terreda, Li Qi, and many other commanders were gathered, all looking far into the mountain range.

A layer of dark mist drifted faintly over the peaks, surging slowly like a living thing. Even from such a great distance, one could feel the chilling and murderous intent within.

Qin Tian expanded his perception, spreading like a tide towards San Tuo Mountain. His mental tendrils penetrated the dark mist, delving into every valley, every cave, every gap in the mountain range.

Soon, all the creatures within San Tuo Mountain transformed into large and small red dots in his mind, densely distributed over a three-dimensional terrain map.

"Tens of thousands of stele demons... quite a number," Qin Tian said slowly, raising his eyebrows slightly.

No wonder the Dongfang Clan sent a group of skilled people into San Tuo Mountain to gather intelligence, with only one person returning severely wounded.

Given the complex terrain of San Tuo Mountain and the terrifying density of stele demons, only a Tier Eight powerhouse might confidently return safely.

It’s a hard nut to crack, indeed.

But the greater the difficulty, the more it indicates the treasures hidden beneath San Tuo Mountain are remarkable.

The more densely stele demons congregate, the more likely valuable opportunities are suppressed there.

However, with the current four-thousand-strong forces at Ice Extreme Pass, directly clearing all the stele demons in San Tuo Mountain would be strenuous. A frontal assault would inevitably result in casualties, and he didn’t want his subordinates to endure unnecessary sacrifices.

As for using explosive iron balls to blast the mountain... it would be too conspicuous and might trigger some chain reactions.
