The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 63: Chapter 61: Dusk

Bam.

The sound of a body hitting the ground echoed.

Qin Jin walked past Xiang Yichen, decisively ending him.

The silver-haired woman did not deceive him.

With the strength of these two, they must have killed quite a few constructs, but after finishing them off, he did not gain that special power.

Qin Jin’s gaze turned towards the front.

The battlefield ahead was somewhat bleak.

Three against one.

But at this moment, the ones falling behind were Ji Xiuyuan’s team.

At a glance, the three were covered in blood, severely injured.

This Chosen Squad, belonging to the Bengshan Dojo, indeed had the strength to back their arrogance.

However.

As Qin Jin’s gaze swept over, the third member of the squad realized the situation on this battlefield and terror rose in his eyes.

He knew very well the strength of his teammates.

But now…

Both lay on the ground, their life status unknown.

While facing the enemy, he glanced at Qin Jin out of the corner of his eye, a chill swelling in his heart, almost without hesitation, he was ready to flee.

He made his decision quickly, but beside him were three opponents.

Though Ji Xiuyuan was covered in wounds, he remembered one crucial point; the more the enemy wanted something to happen, the less he could allow it.

At the first realization of the opponent’s intention to leave the battlefield, he unleashed his last bit of strength, leaped up, and directly grabbed onto the opponent’s leg.

“Let go!”

A startled shout rang out, accompanied by a heavy blow.

Ji Xiuyuan just wouldn’t let go.

And it was then.

Divine Light flared up in Qin Jin’s eyes, Divine Intent swept forth.

The Golden Armored Divine General leapt into the air, advanced, slain the enemy, and returned!

The third member, tightly held by Ji Xiuyuan, stiffened, the brilliance in his eyes completely dimmed, and due to Ji Xiuyuan’s exertion, his body fell backward, directly smashing into him.

Poof…

Blood oozed from the corner of Ji Xiuyuan’s mouth.

His consciousness already wasn’t clear, but his equally wounded teammates realized what had happened, tremblingly took out the Secret Medicine they carried, pushed the third member of Bengshan Dojo aside, and fed Ji Xiuyuan, helping to preliminarily stabilize his injury.

Qin Jin swept his gaze over and retracted his sight.

He had no intention of attacking this squad that hadn’t made a move against him and had no power to resist at the moment.

Just then…

A voice rang out from the rear.

“Hey, friend.”

Qin Jin stopped, turned around.

It was Ji Xiuyuan who called out.

He could hardly stand at the moment, barely rising with the support of his teammates, shouting loudly, further agitating his wounds, he couldn’t help but cough violently.

Seeing Qin Jin turn around, he barely stopped coughing, through gritted teeth from the pain, said, “I am Ji Xiuyuan.”

Just like when they first met, he introduced himself again.

He continued, “We will immediately withdraw from the Chosen Struggle.”

“Friend, what should I call you?”

“I’m just a small fry now, but if I make a name for myself in the future, I will surely repay your life-saving grace!”

By the end, he was shouting through the pain.

Qin Jin’s eyebrows rose slightly.

He turned around, slightly spoke, his voice carried far.

“Qin Jin.”

After speaking, he met Yu Sheng and Jiang Panxia who walked over, confirmed the direction, and continued to delve into the forbidden zone.

“Qin Jin, hiss… it hurts, so much pain.”

Ji Xiuyuan watched as Qin Jin’s figure gradually faded into the distance, sat down with the support of his teammates, enduring the pain, said, “Quickly treat the injuries, and let’s leave this area.”

“Next, we might not encounter such experts willing to spare us.”

…

Qin Jin at the front, the three delved deep.

After advancing a distance, Qin Jin clearly felt the repulsive force increase again.

The initial assumption was correct.

The closer to the Star God’s birthplace, the stronger the repulsive force.

Qin Jin stopped and turned to look at his two teammates, solemnly said, “This is as far as we go.”

“You two leave the supplies behind and return directly.”

This repelling force was a natural form of elimination.

Since Qin Jin had already made the decision earlier, he would execute it decisively now.

Jiang Panxia bent down, sorted the things in the backpack, and placed it by Qin Jin’s feet, hesitated for a moment, then finally said, “Captain, take care.”

“Mm.”

Qin Jin nodded.

Beside him.

Yu Sheng clenched his fist and waved it, “Captain, we wait for your good news!”

“After the Chosen Struggle ends, You must have Boss Chu hold a victory feast for you.”

Qin Jin smiled mildly.

After parting.

Yu Sheng and Jiang Panxia left together.

As teammates, from the trials in the wilderness to the battles in the forbidden zone, they knew Qin Jin’s strength best.

They also completely honored the commitments they made before the Chosen.

Everything centers around Qin Jin.

Given the current forbidden zone rules, continuing together would only burden Qin Jin. Therefore, the two did not hesitate and directly followed Qin Jin’s order to return.

After watching them go far off, Qin Jin withdrew his gaze, looked toward the depths of the forbidden zone, and strode forward.

…

“Retreat, retreat, retreat!”

A purposely lowered voice emerged, and at a certain part of the forbidden zone, a three-member squad of two men and a woman conversed while slowly retreating.

Once they had opened up some distance, the three exchanged glances and exhaled deeply.

“Su Su, thank goodness you spotted it quickly.”

The man clad in battle armor with blond hair breathed a sigh of relief: “We need to change our route. Who knew a big creature was sleeping here? Extraordinary Creatures are different from Constructs; they have intelligence and are hard to deal with.”

“Let’s try to go around; at least it’s safer.”

“Alright.”

The other two nodded, and the woman referred to as Su Su said softly, “Diaz, Zhang Cheng, have you noticed? As we go deeper into the forbidden zone, not only are there more Constructs, but many Extraordinary Creatures have appeared as well.”

“It might be the power of the Star God spilling out, naturally attracting bodyguards.”

Su Su was about to say more when she sensed something and became alert: “In that direction, it seems someone is approaching.”

The three looked serious and all stared in the direction Su Su pointed.

Among the three, Su Su had the highest Spiritual Index, making her perception the most acute.

Before long.

Accompanied by footsteps, a man wearing a black-gold combat suit with a backpack walked closer.

The three regarded him warily.

However, the person didn’t seem to intend to strike; after scanning the three, he continued forward.

He was heading in the direction from which the three had retreated.

Seeing this.

Su Su bit her lip and suddenly spoke, “Stop moving forward.”

The man halted.

Su Su’s teammates looked briefly startled but soon show a helpless look. Facing the gaze cast by the man, Su Su continued, “There is an Extraordinary Creature sleeping on this route ahead. Since you are alone, it’s better to take a detour.”

This man, was Qin Jin.

Upon hearing this woman’s advice, Qin Jin looked slightly surprised and nodded in response, “Thank you for the advice.”

After speaking.

He did not stop but continued forward.

Seeing this scene, Su Su and the other two appeared equally shocked.

Watching Qin Jin head deeper.

“Is he crazy?”

Su Su looked at her two teammates, puzzled, “What’s this? Knowing there are tigers on the mountain, yet walking straight towards them? He’s all alone, without his teammates, and still charging forward fiercely like this?”

“Who knows.”

Zhang Cheng rolled his eyes, “Sister Su, Big Sister Su, he’s a Chosen One, we are competitors!”

Diaz nodded at the side.

“Ultimately, there’s only one winner among the Chosen Ones.”

Su Su shook her head, looking at the two, “Do you really think you can hit the jackpot and connect with a Divine Spirit?”

“Leaving aside the Chosen ones, those currently in the forbidden zone are all peers from the same hometown; help if you can, he didn’t attack us.”

“Those involved as Chosen ones are not ordinary people, who knows if in the future there will be payback?”

Having said that, she paused slightly and gazed in the direction Qin Jin had disappeared.

“Why don’t we follow and take a look?”

“You want to follow him?!”

Zhang Cheng’s eyes widened.

“Follow and take a look.”

Su Su’s expression grew serious: “He’s alone and poses no threat to us, if we can save him, let’s do so.”

“In case…”

She imagined more: “He’s so fearless, what if he truly has the ability to take down that big creature, then we wouldn’t need to detour?”

Her two teammates were speechless.

“Well, let it be as you say.”

With a sigh, Diaz spoke first: “If it weren’t for Su Su’s perception abilities, we couldn’t have easily reached here.”

“Let’s do as she says.”

“Let’s go.”

Zhang Cheng agreed, hesitating no more.

“Hope this guy is just putting on a show, actually, he must have some Combat Technique to camouflage himself, that’s why he chose this route.”

In conversation.

The figures of the three moved far away.

…

Somewhere in the forbidden zone.

Three figures dressed in dark yellow robes stood on a high cliff, looking toward the distant Thunderbolt Divine Tree.

“The time is about right.”

The person in the middle withdrew his gaze: “As He is about to be born, the restraining power surrounding this forbidden zone has practically vanished.”

“Begin the arrangements.”

“Once the setup is complete, go find the trail of the Crown Team.”

“The Divine Spirit Secret Teachings can’t be involved in the Chosen Ones without cause; don’t let them spoil things.”

Among the three, the tallest figure bent down and retrieved items from a large backpack.

Strange white bones, secret blood, shattered crystals, a diverse array of items were taken out one by one, radiating various colors of light, appearing somewhat eerie.

The only commonality is…

If viewed directly with the naked eye, there seems to be a mysterious pattern faintly visible from these items.

It was a blood-dripping pupil exuding a dusky aura in the color of twilight.
