The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 355 - 163: Imparting a New Technique, Meeting the Myriad Tribulations

"I’ll pass on the method of medicinal bath to Yan Yue later."

Yan Gaoyuan pulled his gaze away from the container, his expression shifting. He was about to say something, but, facing Qin Jin’s forthright gaze, he hesitated for a moment and eventually nodded, "Then we’ll accept it."

Qin Jin smiled, "Alright, Uncle Yan, go cook. It’s been a long time since I’ve tasted your cooking."

"Just wait."

Yan Gaoyuan flashed a smile and returned to the kitchen.

Behind him.

Yan Yue picked up a test tube.

Sunlight from outside the window shone in, illuminating the test tube, and the blood-red liquid inside was crystalline and quite beautiful.

"Extraordinary beast blood isn’t cheap, is it?"

She asked.

"That’s not something you should worry about."

Qin Jin walked into the Yan Family’s home, feeling almost no different than being at his own place, and sat on the sofa, "Since you’re going to be the head of my future team, your Martial Arts shouldn’t be too mediocre even if the requirements aren’t high."

"At least reach the Innate level."

"This beast blood will greatly aid you."

"Yan Yue, you need to work hard."

Yan Yue returned his smile.

The blood in the test tube was indeed from extraordinary beasts, except... it came from the Great Wilderness!

In the past, with insufficient ability and status, certain things couldn’t be taken out.

But now, with sufficient identity backing, Qin Jin naturally won’t let down those who genuinely treat him well.

After his parents passed away, back then on the harsh Mining Star, if not for the Yan Family, he couldn’t imagine how much danger he would’ve faced, let alone his current situation.

As one continuously evolves, some things change, yet some remain unchanged forever.

The aroma of food filled the room.

Qin Jin enjoyed a hearty meal.

The meals at the academy, whether in terms of ingredients or flavor, indeed excelled, but lacked the feeling of home.

During the meal.

Yan Gaoyuan looked at Qin Jin and shook his head slightly, "It’s a pity, I checked your birthday, and it would have already started the school term."

"Otherwise, I would have properly celebrated for you."

"No worries."

Qin Jin let go of all his inner burdens, "In a few days, I’ll meet with Yu Sheng and the others. When the time comes, it’ll be like an early celebration."

As he left the Yan Family, the sky was turning dark.

Under the night sky, Qin Jin ran, purely to relax, and just as he was about to reach his residence, his gaze paused, falling on the entrance of the villa.

There, a convoy was stationed.

People awaited outside the vehicles, their faces unfamiliar, but their attire unmistakably belonged to the Federation’s division uniforms. Similar outfits were seen when Qin Jin interacted with the Federation team developing the Thunder Star.

"Looks like they’re here to find me."

"If the Federation wanted to contact me, a direct communication would suffice; what’s the need for coming in person?"

Thoughts flashed by.

Qin Jin stepped towards the villa.

Here, it’s Thunder Star.

To Qin Jin, Thunder Star was the safest place, with no fear of issues arising.

The only potential danger here was alien invaders, like an Evil God suddenly attacking Thunder Star.

Qin Jin didn’t hide his presence, and as he got close, those waiting recognized him. A few people quickly approached him from outside the convoy.

With Qin Jin’s current spiritual perception capabilities, he could discern many details. Observing the actions of these individuals, an instant speculation formed in his mind, "Military personnel?"

"Federation military personnel?"

As the speculation arose in his mind, the leading figure’s expression turned solemn and spoke earnestly, "Mr. Qin."

"Someone wishes to meet you."

Qin Jin distinctly sensed the respect shown when he mentioned "someone."

"Where?"

Qin Jin responded with a question.

"Please board the Star Shuttle. You will meet inside."

He turned back, gesturing an invitation.

Qin Jin’s eyebrows slightly raised, and without hesitation, he stepped forward.

Alongside him, some accompanied.

Upon reaching the Star Shuttle amidst the convoy, the rear door opened, revealing an extremely spacious interior. Qin Jin entered.

This was a large Star Shuttle, with the rear area fully akin to a camper. As soon as Qin Jin entered, the surrounding windows, and even the front cockpit, had screens rise, blocking any view, transforming the space into a private area, shielding it from external inspection.

Trying to use spiritual perception to touch, he sensed a barrier of intent.

"What level, what identity person could it be?"

The thought rose in his mind.

Qin Jin sat down in his seat.

Just after he sat down.

On the seat opposite his line of sight, there were ripples, somewhat similar to the communications image Qin Jin had seen in his personal base, only this time it was a full body image.

The image fluctuated, and after completely forming a human figure, the fluctuations stopped, a vivid communications image appeared on the opposite side, sitting down.

Qin Jin looked over, his gaze suddenly focusing.

The person who wanted to see him was a man, middle-aged, with a dignified appearance, dressed in a military uniform, his expression relaxed.

The other party was indeed the soldier Qin Jin had guessed.

However...

On his shoulder, the badge was a solitary emblem, like a spark lighting up the dark Star Sea.

Starfire Shoulder Badge!

Qin Jin had once looked up information about the Judgment Legion, and thus had some understanding of the Federation Military Department. This Starfire Badge represented an identity.

Marshal!

Federation Marshal!

Federation soldiers are divided by legion, and the legion commander is the leader of a legion, and above the legion commander is the Federation Marshal, the true ruler of the military department.

Such a character, not only with status and position, in a world like the Star Sea where extraordinary life forms can change the outcome of battles, must also be an unbeatable force in the Federation, their power unfathomable.

Upon seeing the badge clearly, Qin Jin didn’t hesitate at all, immediately stood up, clasped his fists, and made a martial salute: "Qin Jin, has met the elder."

He didn’t know the other’s exact identity, but calling them elder wouldn’t be wrong.

This voice addressing him as elder was called out willingly from his heart.

After all, besides the respect due to the strong, the powerful Starfire Federation’s strength couldn’t be without such figures holding the fort. If not for them fighting and expanding, how could Qin Jin have such a smooth growth environment?

The blood of those before made the current prosperous era.

In Qin Jin’s heart, there was always the idea to head to the Civilization Battlefield for training in the future, just like Teacher Gu Huang.

Opposite.

The man’s image readily accepted this salute, revealing an appreciative expression, and after Qin Jin finished speaking, he still stood in place, calmly said: "Sit down."

"The reason I’m meeting you this time is to discuss something, and also take this opportunity to see Little Gu’s student."

"Su Buqi has nothing but praise for you."

Qin Jin complied and sat down.

In his mind, thoughts raced.

"Being able to address Gui Xu Martial God by name, as expected, is a Marshal of the Martial God Realm."

"Little Gu..."

"Is he referring to Teacher Gu Huang?"

A thought flashed, and Qin Jin suddenly realized something, looked towards the opposite, and seriously said: "Are you... Ten Thousand Tribulations Martial God?"

In the past, Teacher Gu Huang had mentioned.

She could contact Gui Xu Martial God with the help of another Martial God, who favored her greatly.

After all, only a Martial God can find another Martial God.

Ten Thousand Tribulations Martial God Xi Tianqing.

The Martial God’s name often relates to their methods, the words Gui Xu represent the Spiritualist’s respect for Elder Su, and the words Ten Thousand Tribulations also sound extraordinary.

"Qin Jin, your reaction is quite quick."

"Did Little Gu mention me to you before?"

"Master Gu mentioned you."

Facing a newly met Martial God elder, Qin Jin suppressed the waves in his heart, seriously replied: "If not for your intervention, it wouldn’t have been possible to reach Elder Su so quickly."

Xi Tianqing quietly listened, watching Qin Jin, though it was only an image, and his demeanor was calm, but there was an invisible pressure permeating the carriage.

After Qin Jin finished speaking.

He nodded slightly, speaking evenly: "Little Gu does have a keen eye, finding a fine seedling like you as a student."

"Speaking of which..."

He changed the tone slightly, continuing: "Qin Jin, I came here specifically to express my gratitude to you."

"Gratitude?"

There was a flicker of emotion in Qin Jin’s eyes, having not expected such words: "Elder, what do you mean by this?"

Knowing the other’s identity as a Martial God, there was no more appropriate term than "elder."

"I learned everything from Su Buqi’s mouth."

"Born as the Star God’s Chosen One, studying in the Martial Abyss."

"You noticed the special anomaly of the planet, and dared to take the risk of contacting him, allowing us, allowing the Federation to take the initiative in some upcoming events."

"Qin Jin, you must be somewhat curious."

"The planetary anomaly occurred, the lockdown on Thunder Star was lifted, yet the Federation has yet to send anyone to experience this anomaly."

"This is precisely the reason I came to thank you."

Xi Tianqing’s voice was calm, with a certain demeanor, he said solemnly: "The first batch to experience the planetary anomaly should be among the Military Department."

"And among the meritorious warriors of the Federation’s major legions!"
