The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 496: Chapter 203: Transcending Tribulations Through the Ages (Part 3)

"This True Scripture, this Grotto Heaven will accompany me as I continuously grow; in the future, I will become a true [Longevity Species]."

This type is not the other type.

One is a tree seed, the other is a race.

The rebirth continues.

Time passes.

This time, the brewing of the Treasure Skill is exceptionally long; even when the rebirth ends and Qin Jin’s aura stabilizes, the Treasure Skill is still gestating.

The Grotto Heaven Treasure Skill engenders naturally, requiring no extra effort from Qin Jin.

His mind remains in the Spirit Ruins, bypasses the [Ten Thousand Ancient Grotto Heaven], then settles at a certain place.

There, the Nine-Story Small Tower emits a gentle light, slowly rotating.

This time during cultivation, the Heaven and Earth Divine Light summoned is unusually grandiose, and this small tower, which has been silent since entering Qin Jin’s Spirit Ruins, finally stirs again, re-entering Qin Jin’s sight.

The Treasure Pagoda rotates, some damaged parts within are now supplemented by the Heaven and Earth Divine Light, but still remains in a phantom state, not yet perfected.

Clearly, it was once extraordinary, which is why now it remains a long way from complete repair.

However, Qin Jin is not impatient; his cultivation path is equally extensive, gradually growing, until perfection is reached.

As Qin Jin observes.

The small tower’s rotation slows, two streams of light shoot out from it, imprinting onto Qin Jin’s mind.

Within the streams of light, two words are contained, which may be viewed as two mantras.

One is [Attack].

The other is [Defend].

Once imprinted onto Qin Jin’s mind, he familiarizes himself with them, his expression subtly changing.

The so-called [Attack] is to wield this small tower for direct assault.

[Defend] is more sophisticated, with the tower hanging around the body, providing protection.

"Looks like its recovery is extremely limited."

"Otherwise, only such primitive methods wouldn’t have appeared."

A monologue in his heart, Qin Jin stops focusing, opens his eyes.

After his cultivation ends, the futon below returns to its ordinary state.

Upon a thought, Qin Jin summons a portal based on the information within the Ink-Wash Painting, steps through it, and leaves the place.

He returns to where he entered.

At the moment of return, seemingly brought by the wind, Su Changqing’s gentle voice resonates by his ear.

"How is it?"

"Using Longevity Species as the foundation, what type of Grotto Heaven have you established?"

Upon hearing, Qin Jin’s heart stirs, he speaks up, "Temple Master, heaven and earth assigned it a name, it is called [Ten Thousand Ancient]."

"Ten Thousand Ancient Grotto Heaven?"

Su Changqing praises, "Not bad."

"Being able to endure the Eternal Life Game, you indeed fit the true scripture of this temple’s legacy."

Contemplation dances within Qin Jin’s eyes, as he asks a query in his heart, "According to the Temple Master’s words, does it mean that although also establishing a Grotto Heaven using Longevity Species as the foundation, everyone’s result differs?"

"Of course."

"Every person differs, Divine Objects also vary, thousands of changes, elusive."

"Looking at the effect of the initial establishment of Grotto Heaven, you’ve already reached your limit."

"Overcoming tribulations becomes centuries, transforming tribulations becomes ten thousand ages."

"To establish these two types of Grotto Heaven using Longevity Species is already an extraordinary feat, beneath it, in my Cyan Wood Temple’s history, there are names for other Grotto Heavens like Common Transformation, Dust Bone, Unending, and so forth..."

Upon hearing his words, Qin Jin’s heart stirs, thinking of the reference information from the secluded place while cultivating.

"Temple Master."

He looks toward the peak’s direction, "Above centuries and ten thousand ages?"

"Listening to the Temple Master’s words, there should be a higher level."

"Naturally."

Su Changqing answers, "Higher level is not something that can be achieved upon initial establishment, but requires the Grotto Heaven to ascend during a long cultivation path."

"Above centuries and ten thousand ages, called Longevity."

"The two words Longevity, immensely simple, yet the goal innumerable beings strive for."

"You must know, only when not a single tribulation touches, can it be considered Longevity."

...

Qin Jin leaves the Cyan Wood Temple.

Within the Star Sea, starships voyage.

In the Great Wilderness, the people of Sacrificial Fire Tribe are fully mobilized, starting their busy tasks.

Tu Yang Tribe merges into the tribe, incorporating Iron Teeth Tribe, and those erased by Iron Teeth Tribe, the Blood Boiling Tribe, each task being a monumental undertaking, testing the Sacrificial Fire Tribe.

Time passes.

Today, after completing a warp jump through the Star Gate, Qin Jin crosses the vast star river and reaches the border of the Starfire Federation.
