The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 92: Chapter 78: Seeking Not Immortality (5.4K)_3

“Where is he? I can meet him right now.”

The request was granted.

Qin Jin provided the address, then used Spiritual Power to manifest an image of Chu Tianyi, and quietly waited.

…

Xinyang District.

Inside a certain villa.

Chu Tianyi was leaning on the sofa on the first floor, watching a mecha battle program on the large screen in front of him. In the villa’s yard, the Saber-toothed Tiger, no longer the frightened and tense creature it was at first meeting, was happily gnawing on a huge piece of meat.

At this moment.

Silently, in front of him, a text resembling a [door] appeared, and in an instant, it transformed into a portal of light.

Upon seeing the portal, Chu Tianyi’s expression became serious.

With his abilities, he immediately realized what it was.

With almost no hesitation, his figure flickered, and he was already in front of the portal, stepping into it with one step.

The portal disappeared.

Outside, the Saber-toothed Tiger, seeing this scene, blinked and rubbed its eyes with its paw, but eventually couldn’t resist the temptation of the meat in front of it and continued to devour it voraciously.

When he appeared again.

Chu Tianyi was already within an Alternate Space.

He saw Qin Jin nod slightly in acknowledgement and then disappear, leaving the place.

The request he initially had little hope for had come true at this moment.

Chu Tianyi raised his head, and looking up at the majestic figure in the sky, even though the other had restrained their power to avoid harm, he still keenly felt his Spiritual Energy tremble.

“Chu Tianyi.”

The calm voice of the Star God echoed: “Qin Jin conveyed your request.”

“You wanted to see me, for what purpose?”

“Lord Star God, I have a question I wish to ask you.”

His tone was solemn, sensing the trembling Spiritual Energy within, he earnestly said: “In this space, my Spiritual Energy is suppressed. Could you possibly send me to the external world where you can observe me?”

“I can.”

As the voice responded.

Chu Tianyi’s figure vanished from the Alternate Space. When he reappeared, he was standing at the edge of a cliff.

This was clearly the center of the restricted zone, once the edge of the Thunder Pool.

Dusk had fallen, and the world was dim.

After sensing he was away from that space, the trembling Spiritual Energy calmed down, and a brilliance appeared in Chu Tianyi’s eyes. Power surged around him, Spiritual Energy was released, showing itself!

This was a sea-blue energy, appearing profound, tranquil, mysterious, swirling around Chu Tianyi, slowly moving like a thin veil.

His voice sounded.

“Lord Star God.”

“I awakened my talent at the age of twelve, and since then, I’ve been able to comprehend Spiritual Energy, one of the primordial energies of the universe said in legends.”

“Among Spiritualists, my talent is considered above average. From the beginning of cultivation until now, I have already broken through the Sixth Realm [Phase] and am only one step away from the Seventh Realm [Self].”

“However, the higher I ascend, the more I perceive Spiritual Energy, the more doubts arise in my heart.”

“I have communicated with other Spiritualists, but none provided an answer that I found agreeable and certain.”

After saying this, the Spiritual Energy around him surged briefly. In the restricted zone above, sea-blue Spiritual Power appeared, weaving into a web in the sky, forming a Star Ring, stunningly beautiful in the night scene.

This was a demonstration of a Spiritualist using their own Spiritual Energy to evoke the universe’s inherent Spiritual Power, making it manifest.

The web of Spiritual Energy hung overhead, like a net from heaven. Chu Tianyi calmly and seriously said: “I want to know if there is a concept of life within Spiritual Energy.”

In the darkness of the night.

A conversation unfolded between man and deity.

…

After fulfilling the initial promise, Qin Jin finally relaxed completely.

The communication required with the deity had to be extremely secretive, and Qin Jin was mindful of his boundaries. When Chu Tianyi arrived, he chose to leave immediately.

“I hope Teacher Chu can get the result he seeks.”

The thought crossed his mind, and his long-tense spirit completely relaxed.

He soon drifted into a dream.

In the following days, Qin Jin, for the first time in a while, took it easy.

With the connection to the Divine Spirit blocked, the Star God couldn’t perceive him, and Qin Jin had nothing to worry about. After confirming the tribe’s situation in the Great Wilderness, he returned with [Mountains and Rivers].

He had thought the upcoming days would be exceptionally busy.

But reality was contrary to his expectations.

Within just days, only Federation staff visited to issue a new assignment.

[Planet Development Consultant]

Along with this consultant position came a large villa in the center of Xinyang District and a generous monthly Star Yuan salary and Martial Arts cultivation subsidy.

Suddenly, he became an employed individual.

Besides this, it was as if the world had forgotten him, returning to the stable state of cultivation before the Chosen One event, undisturbed by external affairs.

“It’s too peculiar. It seems like someone forewarned this.”

“Was it Su Wu God, or that Commander Duan?”

Through the Interstellar Network, Qin Jin confirmed the identity of the elder who had once promised him.

Commander of the Judgment Legion.

This was a person of supreme authority within the Federation, among the top pillars of the military world.

Qin Jin was glad to take it easy.

The anticipated busyness never came, allowing him to begin preparations for a new exploration of the Great Wilderness.

During this time.

Qin Jin submitted the star name he had thought of, participating in the selection.

[Thunder Pool Star]

Upon arriving at the center of the restricted zone, seeing the Thunder Pool beneath the Divine Tree, that scene left an extremely deep impression on Qin Jin.

In the future, the Mining Star will become a paradise on earth, but Qin Jin hopes that this once scene will not be forgotten.

As the days passed post-Chosen One event, the number of starships coming to the Mining Star continued to increase visibly.

This planet was about to undergo gradual changes.

On the fifth day after the Chosen One event.

When Qin Jin was at home, he received a visitor.

A team of engineers from [Star Ring Heavy Industries] responsible for custom mecha.

…

Corridor Star System.

At the center of the Star System, near the Gaia-level planet [Zhi Xia Star], a massive artificial celestial body orbited the planet, slowly rotating.

Looking outwards, this place resembled an island in the Star Sea, with vast surface space and numerous buildings standing tall.

The most eye-catching sight…

Was a giant irregularly shaped stone tablet that towered on this Star Sea island.

On top of the stone tablet, an ancient seal carved out the word “Martial.”

This was the headquarters campus of one of the top academies in the Corridor Star System, Wuyuan Academy.

Such prestigious academies of this level often have branches on every Life Planet.

Above the island, various technological buildings stood tall, divided into more than a dozen large areas.

At this moment, a figure familiar to Qin Jin was traversing a hallway in a building, and after verifying her identity in an instant, the portal ahead opened, and she stepped inside.

Zhong Yi!

At this moment, dressed in research attire, she did not look as heroic and beautiful as she usually does in her everyday wear. After entering the room, she asked, “Director, why did you call me over so urgently?”

Inside the room.

A middle-aged man in formal attire was sliding the light screen before him, reviewing the materials within.

With each page turned, his eyes became more solemn.

Xu Qiuze, Head of the Admissions Department at Wuyuan Academy.

He looked up at Zhong Yi, his eyes extremely serious, and said in a deep voice: “Zhong Yi, the academy has an important task that requires your participation.”
