The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Lei Xianglong’s face changed as he activated the communication channel: ”What’s happening? Investigate immediately.”

”Minister.”

A voice full of urgency sounded in the communication channel: ”We’re using a dynamic star map. In our real-time observation, right at this moment, there’s an extraordinary individual appearing on the planet numbered YX367, with an immeasurable upper limit, suspected to be a supreme existence descending there.”

”A contingency of ancient civilization?”

”Contact the Pioneer Corps immediately.”

”Synchronize the information with headquarters at once.”

The voice echoed within the communication channel. As it fell, before a response could emerge, a gentle yet unfamiliar voice appeared in the communication.

”No need.”

As the voice rang out.

The subordinate reported urgently again: ”The starship’s external communication function has been blocked by some unprecedented method.”

At this moment.

Inside each starship in the operations department, light screens quietly activated, revealing a figure.

”Doing so is somewhat against the rules.”

”But given the urgency of the situation, to prevent further escalation, it’s necessary.”

”I am the artificial intelligence [Candle Kite] from Wuyuan Academy in the Corridor Star System. Returning Ruins Martial God has officially participated in this unexpected event of the pioneer planet. Your department is to stand by for orders. Once Returning Ruins Martial God departs, proceed to YX367 planet and execute subsequent tasks.”

”Candle Kite, Returning Ruins Martial God?”

Lei Xianglong’s gaze was fixed intensely on the figure in the white dress on the light screen.

...

The Celestial Gate hung in the sky.

Data streams flashed in Candle Kite’s eyes, strengthening the restriction power.

At this moment.

Behind Su Buqi, the Azure Thunder Profound Halberd stood suspended, and unlike others, Qin Jin was neither mute nor blind, unbound by any restraints. Upon seeing the Celestial Gate, his expression slightly changed. Without hesitation, he activated the cockpit to leave from within the Azure Thunder Profound Halberd.

As the Celestial Gate opened.

Within, innumerable, ever-changing characters surged forth, forming a vast body in the sky that Qin Jin was all too familiar with.

That is...

Your Excellency the Observer’s Divine True Body!

This Star God, closely connected to him, chose to traverse the star river and descend here.

Qin Jin felt somewhat conflicted.

Star Gods, among cosmic divine spirits, are the most unique beings. Relying on planets to be born, which is why these planets are incredibly important to them. Star Gods need planets by their side to unleash all their power, and if a planet is severely damaged or even destroyed, the Star God will fall into a weakened state and might even perish.

This...

Is the fundamental reason why the Federation can achieve the closest cooperation with the Star God!

Gaia Planet is extremely important to the Federation and also to Star Gods, sharing the same protective goal is the deepest root of the cooperation.

Now...

Thunder Proclaimer Observer chose to leave the planet because of him.

As the Divine True Body formed in the sky, Qin Jin clearly sensed abnormalities in his Spirit Ruins, with spiritual power surging inside, seeming to cause an unusual [Tide] due to the Observer’s descent.

The formation of the Divine True Body.

Su Buqi looked towards the Divine True Body.

He spoke calmly, in a deep voice: ”Your Excellency the Observer, thank you.”

These words of gratitude seemed somewhat abrupt.

Yet in fact, they were expressing thanks on behalf of the personnel of the Third Battle Group present at this moment.

Before the Celestial Gate appeared, the personnel of the Third Battle Group were all rendered mute and blind, precisely because the Thunder Proclaimer Observer employed power before descending to actively block them, having an initial [exchange] with Su Buqi.

Divine spirits cannot be looked at directly nor spoken of excessively.

The descent of a divine spirit here, without any preparation, would have caused significant loss to the warriors of the Third Battle Group. Though the Thunder Proclaimer Observer himself didn’t intend such, the massive disparity in power inevitably leads to involuntary changes upon witnessing the Divine True Body.

Yet...

The Thunder Proclaimer Observer didn’t choose to descend directly, but rather made preparations.

This is exactly why Su Buqi expressed gratitude.

”I’ve said before that I’m your friend, and also a friend to the Federation.”

The Thunder Proclaimer Observer’s consistently gentle voice sounded.

Once the words fell.

Qin Jin clearly sensed a gaze from the Thunder Proclaimer Observer falling upon him.

”Your Excellency the Observer.”

Qin Jin exhaled deeply and stated earnestly: ”I am alright, Elder Su personally came to bring me out from there.”

His tone was somewhat complex.

In this vast Star Sea, a genuinely supreme existence willing to frequently pay attention and intervene for him signifies a form of success, providing a sense of fulfillment, thus not making this trip in vain.

”Su Wu God.”

The Thunder Proclaimer Observer didn’t directly address Qin Jin, instead, the voice sounded: ”Thank you.”

”No need for that.”

Su Buqi responded, speaking deeply: ”Your Excellency the Observer, Qin Jin is your chosen one, as well as a latent talent of our Federation. On his growth path, he might face hardships, yet our ultimate goals are the same.”

Su Buqi turned back to look at Qin Jin, his eyes sincere: ”I wish for him to, one day, stand independently and become a true [comrade] of both of us.”

The Thunder Proclaimer Observer responded in agreement.

Then...

The Observer continued: ”Qin Jin needs to return with me to his homeland for a period.”

This time.

The attention shifted to the distant end of the sight, to the restricted area within the academy.

From within the restrictions, Candle Kite in a white dress stepped out, nodding slightly: ”Martial Abyss agrees to this.”

”However...”

”Some essential courses cannot be missed.”

She looked at Qin Jin, offering a gentle smile: ”Qin Jin, I will have my avatar broadcast the courses to you. The Star Sea is vast, the information is infinite, and in the future, if you wish to navigate the Star Sea, you must understand and learn these.”

Qin Jin nodded.

His focus wasn’t on the latter part, since he chose to study at the academy for these purposes.

His attention was entirely caught by the words ”my avatar.”

”Could it be...”

”This is Candle Kite’s true form?”

At a glance, her figure appeared lifelike, markedly more complex than the single personality of an avatar.

In the exchange between the two.

Su Buqi reached out into the void, grasping something.

In that grasp, the Martial God Calligraphy fell into his hand. The characters of ”Martial” and ”God” now appeared dim, but once the calligraphy was held, power surging, the two characters re-illuminated, and under Qin Jin’s watchful gaze, the [God] character again vanished.

Witnessing this, Qin Jin felt a slight stir in his heart.

In the old days, when Elder Su penned the ”God” character, it created quite a sensation.

Now, it seemed so easy.

Indeed, this could be because the calligraphy had formed, merely replenishing power, but as Qin Jin contemplated, perhaps...after undergoing tribulation, Elder Su gained not only longevity but might’ve acquired certain enhancements.

Thoughts flickered through the mind.

The Martial God Calligraphy floated before him.

Qin Jin lifted his hand, grasping the calligraphy, and solemnly bowed.

It was a true gesture of honor.

Ahead.

Su Buqi watched him, nodding slightly as his voice arose.

”I’ve left protective measures for many young people.”

”But...”

”The times I set a second layer of protection are few.”

”Qin Jin, you’re quite exceptional.”

His gaze shifted, looking at the Azure Thunder Profound Halberd behind Qin Jin, scanning over the cracks above.

”Since the damage occurred during the Pioneer Corps execution of tasks.”

”They’ll provide you with a satisfactory answer.”

On this note.

Su Buqi glanced at the Star God True Body: ”Your Excellency the Observer, please return.”

”Currently, Thunder Star can not be without you for too long.”

Up in the sky.

The Divine True Body stretched, gentle power enveloping Qin Jin and the Azure Thunder Profound Halberd, forming a barrier. At this instant, Qin Jin seemed to enter a strange realm, upon entering, he clearly sensed his Spirit Ruins react, with the internal three Grotto Heavens simultaneously showing signs of change.

Turning his thoughts, he looked around.

This place was immensely vast, sight couldn’t reach the end, peculiar forces surged within. As the Grotto Heavens exhibited changes, Qin Jin clearly sensed the Divine Descent Grotto Heaven and Enlightenment Grotto Heaven, with the characters of ”Divine” and ”Enlightenment,” amidst subtle flickering, transitioning from an illusory state to a more tangible one.

At this moment, Qin Jin boldly speculated.

”Upon Your Excellency the Observer’s descent, it caused my Spirit Ruins to react.”

”Now, the Grotto Heaven is changing.”

”Could it be...”

”This is the [Grotto Heaven] established by Your Excellency the Observer, utilizing Thunder Marsh Technique along the Immortal Dynasty Road?”
