I Picked Up Talents in the Interstellar Battlefield

chapter 367 - The Four Symbols Seal Sudden Change


The moment the golden light barrier collided with the edge of the spatial vortex, the entire Infernal Demon Sea seemed to have a thunderbolt thrown into it.Violent energy currents exploded like a tsunami, the Golden Shield trembled violently, its runes flickering on and off, emitting a groan of unbearable strain.The dark vortex was like a living behemoth, frantically tearing at the light barrier, countless black demonic energies piercing the Golden Shield like venomous stings, attempting to completely shred this obstruction.“What’s going on?” The hearts of the observing warriors leaped into their throats, many instinctively gripping their weapons, cold sweat beading on their palms. The seal, which had been unstoppable moments ago, now appeared precarious, with several tiny gaps even gnawed into the edges of the Golden Shield by the vortex.“Increase the spiritual energy output!” the resolute man leading them shouted in a deep voice.Forty figures simultaneously erupted with brilliant light, spiritual energy surging into the scroll like a breached dam, instantly rekindling the previously dim runes, and the gaps on the Golden Shield healed at a visible rate.Just then, the hovering scroll suddenly burst forth with dazzling light, and the runes on the scroll seemed to come alive, twisting and converging in the golden glow.In an instant, four colossal phantoms rose from the scroll: in the eastern corner, a giant azure dragon coiled, its scales and claws distinct, its eyes like lightning, emitting a dragon’s roar that shook heaven and earth; in the western position, a white tiger roared with its head held high, its silver-white fur bristling like needles, its fangs bared, exuding a ferocious aura that disdained all under heaven; in the southern area, a Vermilion Bird flapped its wings, ready to fly, flames encircling its body, every feather seemingly burning with an unquenchable blaze; in the northern spot, a Black Tortoise lay prostrate and steady, its shell covered with profound patterns, exuding a heavy, mountain-like calm.Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise!The four divine beast phantoms guarded the four corners of the Golden Light Shield, their power like four pillars stabilizing the sea, instantly steadying the violently shaking Golden Shield.The previously violent spatial currents gradually calmed under the divine beasts’ pressure, the runes on the Golden Shield’s surface flowed more smoothly, and the speed at which it pressed towards the vortex accelerated once more.“It’s done!” A hint of a smile finally appeared on the tense face of the man in green.As the Golden Shield continued to advance, the center of the vortex was gradually covered by the golden light.The moment the Golden Shield completely merged with the vortex, a translucent membrane appeared out of thin air, like solidified dawn, gently covering the very top of the vortex.This membrane was astonishingly thin, like a soap bubble that could burst at a touch, slightly deforming under the pull of the vortex, a terrifying sight.“Continue injecting spiritual energy!” the four leaders shouted in unison.The forty people concentrated, pouring their spiritual energy into it without reservation.The thin sealing membrane thickened at a visible rate, gradually becoming solid from its initial transparency, emitting a warm and resilient luster.The edges of the membrane continuously spread around the vortex, like growing vines, firmly enveloping the entire vortex. The spatial vortex began to struggle violently under the restraint of the sealing membrane, its diameter shrinking at a visible speed.“Young Master Yu, this operation has been surprisingly smooth.”Beside the man in green, Lan Qiancheng, with shoulder-length hair, smiled, his tone filled with the relief of having a heavy burden lifted: “At this rate, the passage will be completely sealed within a quarter of an hour, and our mission will be successfully concluded.”“Qiancheng, don’t let your guard down.”Dongfang Yu’s voice was as gentle as jade, yet carried an undeniable firmness, his gaze sweeping over the ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) battle groups standing ready in the distance: “Don’t forget, what we need to guard against isn’t just demons.”Lan Qiancheng nodded at his words, a layer of vigilance instantly appearing in his eyes.Indeed, besides demons, there were too many forces unwilling to see the seal completed—the mysterious Blood Demon Sect, the fanatical and prejudiced evil god believers who might be lurking among the crowd at this very moment, watching for a flaw in the sealing team.No sooner had he spoken than dark clouds suddenly churned in the sky to the northwest, and a terrifying pressure that made one’s scalp tingle descended like an overcast sky, the air seemingly frozen.“Seventh-tier fluctuation.” Dongfang Yu’s eyes narrowed, but his tone remained steady, “Qiancheng, I’ll leave it to you all.”“Don’t worry.” The moment Lan Qiancheng responded, he exchanged a look with the four people beside him.The next moment, five majestic spiritual energy light pillars soared into the sky, the brilliant radiance unique to the Golden Bloodline flowing over their bodies, divine weapons humming, clashing fiercely with that seventh-tier pressure.All five were at the peak of the sixth-tier, and with the enhancement of the Golden Bloodline, coupled with the divine weapons in their hands, even if they couldn’t defeat a seventh-tier opponent, holding them off for a while would be no problem.Moreover, hundreds of battle groups contained hidden talents, capable of dispatching dozens of sixth-tier powerhouses for support at any time.Almost simultaneously with the five of Lan Qiancheng making their move, other directions suddenly erupted with attacks—To the west, a crimson blood mist surged like a tide over the battle group formations, countless distorted blood hands faintly appearing within the mist, where it passed, rocks were instantly corroded into pus;To the east, dozens of dark bone spears tore through the air, their tips entwined with resentful black energy;To the south, the ground suddenly cracked into several deep fissures, from which hundreds of slime-covered, deformed monsters crawled out, roaring as they charged towards the nearest warriors;To the north, dozens of crossbow bolts, steeped in eerie blue venom, streaked across the sky, precisely targeting the back-row members of the sealing team, clearly a premeditated assassination.“They’re here!”“Be on guard!”Shouts of alarm rose and fell, yet there was no trace of panic.Veterans who had experienced several sealing battles had long anticipated this—every time the seal reached its most critical moment, these rats hidden in the dark would always jump out to cause trouble; it had almost become a routine.The warriors in the front row instantly raised energy shields, blocking all the blood mist and bone spears; the spellcasters chanted incantations, fireballs and ice cones raining down like meteor showers on the deformed monsters; the leaders of each battle group issued commands immediately, and the originally orderly formations quickly split, forming small combat arrays that integrated offense and defense, firmly entangling the attackers.Qin Tian stood at the front of the Crimson Gold Battle Group formation, his black frost blade already quietly unsheathed. He glanced at the fierce battles erupting all around, with no surprise in his eyes.Completing the seal smoothly was never that easy, and the appearance of these clowns was merely to add a few more drops of blood to this concluding battle.“Hold your ground, don’t let anyone approach the sealing circle!”Qin Tian’s voice spread throughout the battle group. Xiong and Terrida, along with others, had already led warriors to meet the charging deformed monsters, blades and sword shadows intertwining, instantly clearing a vacuum zone.Dongfang Yu looked at the chaotic yet orderly battlefield, his gaze returning to the shrinking spatial vortex.Just a little longer, and the seal would be completely finished.And these people who had popped up were nothing but clowns.However, at this moment, in the back row of the sealing formation, an ordinary-looking man suddenly had a dazed look in his eyes, as if his mind had been seized by an invisible force.The next moment, the spiritual energy within him surged without warning, the originally stable energy flow suddenly became violent, like a wild horse unbridled, breaking through the restraint of his comrades in front and violently crashing into the spiritual energy network further ahead.“Buzz—!”The entire sealing formation was struck as if by a heavy hammer, the rhythm of energy transmission instantly disrupted.The steadily advancing golden light barrier suddenly retracted, most of its surface runes scattering like pearls from a broken string, and the just-stabilized sealing golden membrane trembled violently, even showing spiderweb-like cracks under the vortex’s backlash.“No!” The resolute man at the very front’s face changed drastically, and he roared furiously: “Wei Sheng! What are you doing?!”However, the soldier named Wei Sheng was unresponsive. His eyes were wide open, a strange emerald green light glowing in his pupils, and a stiff smile even played on the corners of his mouth, his entire being exuding a chilling, eerie aura.
