The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 251: Chapter 137: Subduing the Tiger and Breaking the Realm (Part 2)

“How is this possible?!”

“His primordial power…”

The thought flashed through Ye Ping’an’s mind swiftly. His expression turned a bit fierce. At that moment, flames emerged from his chest, and his combat suit could not conceal it. As the flames ignited, the fire surrounding him suddenly turned a mysterious dark blue.

The fire within the heart!

The resistance coming from the primordial power slightly increased.

“A secret collection, or some kind of secret skill?”

The thought flashed through Qin Jin’s mind, but his face remained calm. At this moment, within the Spirit Ruins, the Fire God lowered its gaze as if seeing through the Spirit Ruins, giving Ye Ping’an a glance.

The God within the fire.

All fires bow their heads at my sight.

In this instant, the constantly surging dark blue flames seemed to encounter great terror and grew fearful. They retracted back into Ye Ping’an swiftly, continuously diminishing during the process. Overhead, the giant hand condensed from Qin Jin’s primordial power suddenly clenched into a fist.

In the soundless explosion, the fire tiger was shattered. The primordial power Ye Ping’an released either was crushed or was directly forced back into himself. He abruptly spat out a mouthful of blood, his legs giving way. His face full of shock as he collapsed to the ground, losing consciousness.

The referee on the arena was Candle Kite.

At the moment Ye Ping’an lost consciousness, she made a judgment, and the transport light enveloped him, taking him to the healing room.

The arena fell silent.

But within the academy, among the countless observing students, an uproar erupted.

“This Qin Jin student, I’ve never seen him in regular academy activities; he’s way too fierce.”

“Is it over just like that?”

“Ye Ping’an could use such a technique; he must have broken into the Innate Realm, right? An Innate Realm, and couldn’t even fight?”

Discussions were continuous.

At this moment.

On the arena, Qin Jin’s gaze shifted towards the other students waiting on the platform.

He didn’t speak, but his primordial power spread, resonating with a mental voice like that of Han Miao, echoing on the platform.

“If you have not entered the Innate Realm, do not step onto this arena, otherwise, face the consequences.”

Under the influence of spiritual construction, an oppressive force was contained, and his voice kept reverberating.

“Those in the Innate Realm who do not fear defeat may take the challenge.”

He spoke out a few words.

Qin Jin agreed to Candle Kite’s inquiry, and the arena reopened.

Outside arena No.1, the crowd was dense.

But at this moment, many felt the urge to retreat and quietly left.

According to the arena’s rules, being defeated isn’t scary, but if you suffer severe injuries in defeat, delaying too much time for healing is an unseen waste of opportunity.

S-Class students were familiar with one another. Ye Ping’an’s breakthrough into the Innate Realm was known, but in Qin Jin’s hands, even an Innate Realm Ye Ping’an was no match for a single strike.

While their hearts were shaken, they couldn’t help but harbor more terrifying thoughts and guesses.

At this moment.

As Qin Jin’s words fell, Fang Shuo opened his eyes.

He had sealed himself with primordial power and did not witness the battle between Qin Jin and Ye Ping’an.

However, as Qin Jin spoke, the voice penetrated his primordial power, clearly reaching his ears.

Turning to glance behind him, he had a guess in his mind: “Ye Ping’an lost, and lost quickly.”

The 1st arena, initially crowded with students, quickly became sparse.

With a solemn look in his eyes, Fang Shuo took a deep breath and stepped into the halo.

His figure appeared on arena No.1.

At the same time, battles were occurring on all arenas.

Most students observed the battles on the arena before them, as the two battling might be their upcoming opponents.

But as Fang Shuo stepped onto the arena, nearly all eyes on the platform gathered towards him.

Top scorer of the grand exam versus the first of the special admissions.

One had substantial achievements, the other was a fact vaguely acknowledged by everyone.

This undoubtedly caught everyone’s eye.

The two were completely different. After entering the academy, Fang Shuo was very active, joining student organizations, often sparring with other students, his strength and attitude befitting a top scorer.

In contrast, in the eyes of outsiders, Qin Jin kept a low profile, rarely seen outside of necessary courses.

Yet today, he once again made a stunning impression.

Under countless gazes, Fang Shuo entered the arena, but did not make the first move.

He saw Qin Jin, who had been resting with closed eyes, open them, appearing solemn. He said in a deep voice, “Qin Jin.”

“I did not witness your battle with Ye Ping’an, but seeing now, you must be very strong.”

“Therefore, I will give it my all.”

“All?”

Qin Jin slightly raised an eyebrow.

Fang Shuo’s dramatic turnaround in the final battle of the grand examination had left a deep impression on him.

He didn’t say much, just extended his hand and said, “Please.”

The sound fell on the arena.

On the opposite side of the arena, Fang Shuo didn’t seem to make any movements, but he closed his eyes, then suddenly opened them.

In his eyes, a vortex flashed briefly and disappeared.

As the vortex flashed, in an instant, a special Spiritual World was created.

In this peculiar Spiritual World, he was still on the arena, but the surface of the arena was covered with a layer of mist, and at the other end of the arena, Qin Jin’s figure suddenly appeared, also covered in mist, appearing illusory. In the air, there were faintly illusory butterflies fluttering in the wind.

In this Spiritual World, Fang Shuo charged at the misty Qin Jin.

At the same time.

On the real arena.

Fang Shuo also made a move and approached Qin Jin.

Comparing the two planes, it can be seen that Fang Shuo in the Spiritual World acted very boldly, advancing fearlessly, while Fang Shuo in reality was full of caution as he advanced.

One was trying, the other was stalling.

Everything happened in a flash.

And it was at this moment.

In the Spiritual World, as Fang Shuo enacted his methods of attack, the illusory figure of Qin Jin suddenly solidified!

In this Spiritual World, Qin Jin’s voice suddenly rang out.

“Is this… your Secret Collection ability?”

The forward steps stopped.

Waves surged in Fang Shuo’s eyes: “You’re not being imprinted?!”

“Imprinted?”

“That’s quite a fitting description.”

Interest rose in Qin Jin’s eyes as he looked at Fang Shuo in the Spiritual World, thinking of many things: “Chi Wenwu once speculated that your reversal in the major exam was because you prematurely realized the Spiritual Mechanism and perceived the secrets of the Innate, thus achieving a comeback in one fell swoop.”

“It seems now, he was completely wrong.”

“You did not prematurely perceive the Spiritual Mechanism.”

“But the method you used was even more extraordinary.”

“You are an unusual existence who awakened the Secret Collection before entering the Innate Realm.”

“No…”

“It must be that the Secret Collection never hid from your birth, which is why you are so extraordinary.”

“In the decisive battle of the school selection exam, on the surface, you were continuously losing ground, but in reality, within your Secret Collection, you were probing your opponent’s various trump cards, and only after ensuring there were no unexpected events did you swiftly secure the victory.”

“You’re right.”

Having related information deduced by Qin Jin, Fang Shuo instead became composed: “I didn’t expect you could detect my imprint and directly enter the Spiritual World I created with your Spiritual Will.”

“Qin Jin, you truly are strong.”

“However, you also gave me an opportunity.”

At this instant, on the real arena, Fang Shuo stopped himself, no longer dividing his attention, focusing all his power into the Spiritual World: “Rashly entering my domain, you were too reckless, the master of this arena, number 1 ring, is certainly me!”

In that moment.

Fang Shuo raised his hand, his fingers like a sword, in this misty Spiritual World, sharp streaks of light swiftly converged, and at the same moment, they attacked Qin Jin from all directions.

His Primordial Power was exceptionally active, generating other methods within this Spiritual World.

“Your domain, huh.”

Qin Jin’s expression didn’t change.

But in his eyes, there was a vast amount of Thunder reflecting.

The next instant.

With him at the center, Thunder exploded, wreaking havoc in this misty Spiritual World, and the attacking streaks of light were obliterated instantly. Thunder surged in all directions, and within just a breath, this misty world was already shattered.

This was a special Spiritual World established by Fang Shuo, based on his own Secret Collection, supplemented by Primordial Power.

It was indeed his domain.

But…

When a power that can be deemed transcendental appears here, everything is just empty talk.

No matter the numerous methods, if you can’t win, you just can’t win.

The Spiritual World shattered, and Fang Shuo’s figure suddenly became illusory, as he looked at Qin Jin, waves surging in his eyes.

“This kind of power…”

“You’re not in the First Shedding, not even in the Second Shedding, no…”

“How could this be?!

The voice vanished.

The created Spiritual World collapsed with a thunderous noise.

At the same time.

Thud.

Accompanied by a dull sound on the arena, in the eyes of the observing students, the two had not even engaged, yet Fang Shuo had already fallen unconscious, collapsing on the arena.
