The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

As his gaze extended, from the firmament, faint patterns of power appeared, emanating a brilliant golden hue that felt majestic and grand, filled with an imposing sense. Qin Jin found this aura extremely familiar; it was indeed from the Mountain and River Divine Cauldron, originating from the Divine Cauldron Restriction.

And below, the abyss.

At a glance, at the very depths, there was a power visible only through divine means, appearing ash-gray, entirely different.

With a Divine Spirit avatar accompanying him by his side, Qin Jin discovered more subtle differences.

”Apart from the Divine Cauldron Restriction left by the Immortal Dynasty Emperor...”

”Is there another force protecting the Great Wilderness?”

Slight suspicions rose in Qin Jin’s heart.

He pondered for a moment, and with a thought, he retrieved a piece of the Divine Cauldron Fragment from the Spirit Ruins.

The original Spiritual Spring Fragment.

When he first arrived at this place back in the day, before the Spirit-Breaking Ruins were established, his mere proximity had triggered anomalies. Now... the Divine Cauldron Fragment, positioned within the Spirit Ruins, entirely blocked such changes.

With the Spiritual Spring Fragment in hand, Qin Jin made no move; the fragment began to tremble at this moment, shimmering with faint light. Brilliance arose, sweeping over the abyss, and plunged toward the opposite cliff!

Like a Key Stone!

Under the reflection of the brilliance, the cliff shook violently. All illusions dispersed, and the massive fragment of the Mountain and River Divine Cauldron revealed itself. Bronze Chains covered the heavens, and a rainbow light rose, forming the Rainbow Bridge, projecting in front of Qin Jin and the Thunder Proclaimer Observer.

The world gate scene they had once witnessed reappeared.

This portal was perhaps the true chasm that Qin Jin had turned away from after exploring to this place. Now, a Divine Spirit’s avatar would explore this true realm before him, seeking the truth.

”Your Excellency the Observer.”

Qin Jin raised the Spiritual Spring Fragment in his palm and said solemnly, ”This is the Key Stone that reveals the portal.”

”When your avatar wishes to return, it will also need this item.”

As his Cultivation Realm continued to improve, the fragment he first acquired became less and less useful.

After the world’s anomalies descended with Divine Light, the Sacrificial Fire Tribe’s water sources had all become Spiritual Springs, reducing its role further. Hence, Qin Jin chose to use it as the Key Stone.

The Rainbow Bridge and the portal both manifested.

The Observing Word Avatar left his side, hovering by Qin Jin, who handed over the fragment, which was swiftly stored away.

At the same time, brilliance glided from the avatar, landing in Qin Jin’s palm.

”Take it back.”

”My true self naturally knows the insights I’ve gained here, knows what I am to do.”

After a whisper, the Observing Word Avatar did not hesitate, its figure rippling as it skimmed toward the Rainbow Bridge.

Just as it stepped onto the Rainbow Bridge.

Its movements slightly paused, and in Qin Jin’s mind, the voice of the Thunder Proclaimer Observer rang out.

”There is a peculiar life form observing us.”

”Observing?”

Qin Jin’s spirit jolted.

Ahead, everything was normal, but Qin Jin naturally trusted the judgment from the Thunder Proclaimer Observer.

”This place is still within the coverage of the Divine Cauldron Restriction. It hasn’t acted but is merely observing, clearly not an absolutely hostile presence like the Three-headed Exotic Python.”

”Is it similar to the Eclipse Sacrificial Spirit, an alien race closely connected to the ancient human race and the Immortal Dynasty?”

”Or some other existence?”

”Wait...”

Qin Jin suddenly recalled something: ”When I first came here, was the other party here as well, observing secretly? Had they perhaps seen me wielding the Azure Thunder Profound Halberd?”

Thoughts flowed.

Qin Jin appeared solemn.

This was undoubtedly an opportunity.

The strange life form mentioned by the Observer must have significant ties with the Immortal Dynasty from the portal that connects the outside world to the Great Wilderness.

If so, he could glean more information from it.

The main thing is...

If he were alone, he wouldn’t take such a rash step, but now, with Your Excellency the Observer’s avatar accompanying him, he has the foundation to make some attempts.

By choosing to tell him of the discovery, Your Excellency the Observer was evidently giving him the chance to decide.

After a moment of thinking, Qin Jin made up his mind. Facing the Rainbow Bridge portal, he spoke earnestly: ”I kindly ask the elder to show yourself.”

He spoke in the language of the Great Wilderness, while communicating with the Observing Word Avatar in his heart.

Once the words were spoken, the sound echoed with the blessing of Spiritual Power.

No one responded.

The Rainbow Bridge flickered with a soft light, with no change occurring.

In Qin Jin’s heart, he already had a basic guess about this [peculiar life form]. With serious eyes, amidst stirring Spirit Ruins, the shadow of the Spirit Ruins emerged behind him, and the Grotto Heaven stood within it. The divine uniqueness of the Celestial Cyan Technique truly unveiled, and his voice rang out again.

”Please, elder, show yourself!”

The voice echoed in all directions.

The Observing Word Avatar came to Qin Jin’s side, seemingly with protective intent.

The words reverberated.

On the other side of the Rainbow Bridge, next to the portal, a water curtain fluctuated. Among the ripples, a figure slowly emerged, no longer concealed.

Qin Jin’s gaze focused.

The figure that appeared matched his intuition.

That was the mighty being Qin Jin had personally witnessed, shortly after entering the Great Wilderness, who had slain the Three-headed Exotic Python.

Horse-headed God!

The Mountain God recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas!
