The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 200: Chapter 117: God-Calling Ceremony

The night sky was illuminated.

In the distance, an explosion went off, and amidst the rumbling, gazes cast toward that forceful outburst, watching the fireworks rise mid-air.

Qin Jin and Qiu Dongyan both focused their eyes in the direction, surveying the distance. Qin Jin’s expression was mildly stern, as he called out to Yan Yan nearby, “Captain Yan, have you confirmed the situation yet?”

“Still unable to confirm.”

“Colleagues stationed nearby are closing in to investigate, but it will take some time before we have accurate intel.”

Yan Yan was evidently in communication, and after interfacing with Qin Jin: “Qin Jin, we also need to head there immediately to reinforce!”

As soon as his words fell.

On the ground, the sound of vehicles starting echoed. At the same time, in the sky, various aerial vehicles, including Star Shuttles, were rushing toward the explosion to transport them for reinforcement.

In about half a minute, a large Star Shuttle stopped in front of Qin Jin and the others, and the door opened.

Without hesitation, Qin Jin boarded the Starship immediately.

At that moment.

From behind.

Qiu Dongyan’s aged voice rang out.

“I will go with you.”

Hearing this, Yan Yan’s face showed hesitation, and he spoke up: “Elder Qiu, your health…”

“No problem.”

Qiu Dongyan shook her head, stepping toward the Star Shuttle: “At such a time, it’s highly possible that this incident involves the Libra Apostle Association.”

“If I go along, perhaps we might discover something.”

“Besides, there’s hardly any use here; I still haven’t gathered the relevant information from Qin Jin.”

In her words, she had already reached the front of the low-hovering Star Shuttle.

“Alright.”

Yan Yan was not one to hesitate; he immediately made the decision, assisting Qiu Dongyan onto the Star Shuttle, and then sat himself down, activating the communicator to make a call.

In the next instant…

The Star Shuttle soared into the sky, rushing toward the explosion site.

Simultaneously, on the ground and in the air, countless Patrol Bureau vehicles, like a torrent, approached the site of the incident.

Within the Patrol Bureau, there was hardly any delay; Song Shulin directly issued a lockdown order.

The backup forces arranged by the Patrol Bureau were promptly activated.

…

On the Star Shuttle.

Under the elder’s gaze, Qin Jin’s Primordial Power surged, mentally recalling the changes of the giant scale during the final strike, recreating the scene and conveying it to Qiu Dongyan.

Verbal descriptions were clearly not as clear as communication on the spiritual level.

After receiving the information, Qiu Dongyan’s eyes slightly closed.

Qin Jin keenly sensed a faint yet steadfast force rising around her outer body.

The Star Shuttle pressed forward.

At a certain moment, Qiu Dongyan suddenly opened her eyes, and within them, a flash of Divine Light flickered and disappeared.

“Elder Qiu, how is it?”

Seeing this, Yan Yan quickly spoke up.

Qiu Dongyan’s gaze returned to murkiness, her voice calm: “Can’t confirm completely, but this should be part of some sort of God-Calling Ceremony.”

“God-Calling Ceremony?!”

Yan Yan’s eyes widened sharply.

Against a small stronghold of the Evil God Sect, they have enough power to purge it. But should there be direct contact with a Divine Spirit, engaging the entire Patrol Bureau would be in vain.

Qin Jin’s expression also turned more serious.

“Do not panic.”

Qiu Dongyan’s aged voice rose: “According to what you’ve explained before, a Priest Level Esoteric Practitioner is leading this, and with his abilities, how could he summon a true Divine Spirit.”

“After the last major operation against the Apostle Association, the Henglu Master they worship hasn’t appeared for a long time, and it’s suspected that he has abandoned his believers.”

“The ceremony’s intent is likely some sort of gift from the Divine Spirit, or even an attempt to restore connection with the Divine Spirit.”

“Moreover…”

Qiu Dongyan shook her head: “Just initiating such a ceremony already exceeds his capabilities, leading to his demise.”

“However, this is only part of the ceremony and doesn’t seem like a complete ritual. Near Cold Plum City, there should be other ceremony setup locations responding to it, which will be activated simultaneously once complete.”

Saying this, she looked at Qin Jin, her murky gaze flashing with appreciation, and praised: “Student Qin Jin, well done, whether their purpose may have been, after one of the ritual sites was completely obliterated, the ceremony is no longer complete, and they cannot achieve their original goal.”

“Next, what we need to do is find the other parts of the God-Calling Ceremony.”

As her praise echoed.

Qin Jin and Yan Yan’s gazes suddenly focused on each other.

If the opponent had set up other ritual sites.

Then…

Could it possibly be connected with the explosion?

After all, the occurrence of such an incident at this time is so subtle, naturally leading to speculation.

Qiu Dongyan’s assessment was directly recorded, and under Yan Yan’s command, reported to the Patrol Bureau’s command center.

Qin Jin looked aside, through the porthole, observing the outside world.

The Patrol Bureau’s response was swift.

They were about to reach the explosion site.

…

At the same time.

At the explosion site, on the eastern border of Cold Plum City.

After the explosion, the sound reverberated far and wide, and in this fiery area, three silhouettes, extremely disheveled, were frantically fleeing.

The trio from the Time Law Academy.

Behind them.

A group of insane-looking enemies was in pursuit, their attire clearly marking them as belonging to the Evil God sect!

The trio was in poor condition; An Ning had fainted, and was being carried by Lu Jinfeng, with Hu Fei at their side, intermittently fending off attacks from behind.
