I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield Chapter 1107 - 686: The Mystery of the Space-Time Amber
Previously on I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield...
Dark cave.
In the pitch-black darkness where even a hand wasn’t visible, space suddenly rippled, as if a stone had been thrown into a calm lake, spreading invisible waves.
Then, two figures suddenly appeared.
Kesler stumbled a few steps, stabilizing his form, he swiftly turned around to see the man behind him.
At this moment, it felt as if his heart were gripped tightly by an invisible hand.
"Qin... Qin Tian... No, General Qin."
Kesler’s voice trembled slightly, his face forcing an unnatural smile, more miserable than crying.
"Lord Kesler, we meet again."
Qin Tian raised the corners of his lips into a slight curve.
"General Qin, thank you for dealing with Broden for me."
Kesler struggled to maintain the smile on his face, trying hard to make his voice sound somewhat calm, "I’ll tell you exactly where the Space-Time Amber is, I swear by the Beast God, without any reservations."
"Hold on."
Qin Tian didn’t rush to question, but leisurely placed his hand on Kesler’s shoulder. The strength of the hand wasn’t great, yet it made Kesler’s body involuntarily tense.
"Since you know that the Beastman side sent three Tier Eight Royal Family members to hunt me, and you were part of the team, why didn’t you inform me earlier?"
Qin Tian’s voice remained calm, but Kesler couldn’t help but sense a hint of chilling coldness from that calm.
"General Qin, I..." Kesler opened his mouth to explain, but Qin Tian interrupted him directly.
"I guess you were going to say it was due to an emergency, and there were always people around you, so you didn’t find a suitable opportunity to inform me."
Qin Tian’s lips held a faint smile, and his eyes seemed to pierce through everything.
"Isn’t that right, Lord Kesler?"
"I... I’m not..."
Kesler was flustered as Qin Tian exposed his intentions.
He indeed intended to explain like this, but now Qin Tian had almost said it word for word in advance, his prepared defenses seemed utterly feeble.
"Looks like I was right."
Qin Tian reached out and patted Kesler’s shoulder, still with a seemingly half-smile.
However, to Kesler, that look was akin to a demon showing a bloodthirsty smile.
An unprecedented fear emerged from the depths of his soul, engulfing all his reason like a tide.
"Thud——"
Kesler’s knees gave way, kneeling down directly, forehead pressed tightly to the ground, his body trembling slightly due to fear: "General Qin, I was wrong, please give me another chance!"
His stance was as humble as possible, completely lacking the pride and dignity expected of the Beastman Royal Family.
At the Ice Extreme Pass, he had already tasted Qin Tian’s might, powerless against him, and now, the Qin Tian before his eyes was even stronger than before, even able to stand on par with the Tier Eight Golden Behemoth War God Amond.
What drove him to despair even more was the scene just moments ago—he was completely swept into the black hole of space by a terrifying power.
The power held him firmly, he struggled desperately, but all resistance was like an ant trying to stop a chariot, utterly pointless against absolute strength.
He realized clearly—if Qin Tian wanted to kill him, it would be as simple as crushing an ant.
Thus, he had no intention of resistance, only pleading, only submission, hoping the other would spare his life.
Qin Tian looked down at Kesler’s trembling body, smiled faintly, then raised his large hand, gently pressing it on Kesler’s forehead.
"Relax your mind!"
The low, commanding voice with undeniable authority struck deep into the soul.
Kesler instinctively relaxed his mind, following, a domineering soul power invaded his Sea of Souls, like a hot iron, branded an indelible mark deep in the soul.
"Ah—!"
Kesler let out a piercing scream, his body convulsing violently as if struck by thunder.
He only felt the world black out, as though his entire soul had been torn open, and then stitched back together in a new way.
Moments later, the excruciating pain gradually faded, replaced by a profound sense of obedience and submission from the depths of his soul.
Facing Qin Tian, Kesler kneeled lower to the ground, his voice carrying deep reverence: "Master."
"Get up." Qin Tian said lightly.
"Yes."
Kesler stood up, lowering his head, not daring to meet Qin Tian’s gaze.
He introspected his Sea of Souls, the golden Soul Seed hovered like the sun, emitting a warm and dazzling light, covering his entire Sea of Souls in a golden glow.
He didn’t expect, that the master with such terrifying combat strength, was also a top expert in the realm of souls, the domineering soul power was even more fearsome than encountering a Tier Eight Royal Family,
Qin Tian looked at Kesler before him, considering several plans for Kesler—killing directly, collecting in the Reincarnation Lamp as a Lamp Spirit Slave, and planting a Soul Seed.
After much consideration, he decided to plant a Soul Seed.
Firstly, this could maximally preserve the full battle strength of a Tier Seven Beastman Royal Family.
Kesler, a direct lineage of the Eternal Ice Silkworm clan, with strength close to Tier Seven Peak, was a force to be reckoned with no matter where.
If killed directly or turned into a Lamp Spirit, the battle strength would be diminished, whereas the Soul Seed could retain one hundred percent combat power.
Secondly, the ice silk from the Eternal Ice Silkworm clan is a precious material—it can serve as a weapon and be woven into clothing, forming inner armor that can withstand Tier Seven attacks.
