The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 497: Chapter 204: Beyond the Sky, More Skies

Inside the Xingzhou Starship.

In the combat chamber, Qin Jin stood in place, his thoughts slightly stirred, the small tower darting out to orbit around him, assuming a defensive posture.

Following the information acquired after the tower was repaired, he activated the mantra.

[Guard]

With a single thought in mind, the small tower circled around him, leisurely rotating without any change, yet in a fleeting moment, Qin Jin clearly sensed a gentle force emerging from the top of the Nine-Story Small Tower, encircling him to form a protection.

This protection was not limited to the physical body, but also involved the mental aspect.

"It seems simple, but also contains higher-level variations. As it continues to be repaired, its future displayed abilities should become increasingly powerful."

After diligently familiarizing himself with it, Qin Jin retracted the small tower into the Spirit Ruins.

Artifacts have a spirit; the spirit of the Nine-Story Small Tower has not awakened like the Enlightenment Stele, but after this repair, it seems to have become the starting point for everything. After entering the Spirit Ruins, its repair speed has visibly improved, continuously completing its repairs every moment.

It seems to have satisfied certain conditions and begun [Self-Repair].

After leaving the combat chamber, Qin Jin softly called, and Candle Kite’s figure appeared.

Recently, Candle Kite has been the entity accompanying him the longest, and their mutual understanding has been continuously increasing. Upon appearing, Candle Kite controlled the situation with a star map surfacing in mid-air, it was the star map of the Glazed Star System.

The majority of the star map’s area was complete, marking the major life planets, resource planets, and some special regions of the Glazed Star System; however, in the northern section of the star map, everything was obscured, like interference signals with a mosaic attached above that concealed everything.

This is not merely the obscuration by technological means, nor because the star map has not yet recorded the area, but rather extraordinary means have been used to cover up this region!

That area is the northern frontier of the Glazed Star System, the front line of the civilization battlefield, a place truly guarded by heavy troops.

The destination of Qin Jin’s current journey lies beyond the frontier, an apparently mirror-white planet.

[Lin Yuan Star]

[Level 4 Life Planet]

Qin Jin’s gaze fell upon it, whispering, "Heaven-Filling Dojo is situated here."

"Yes."

Candle Kite hovered at his side, explaining: "Originally, Heaven-Filling Dojo was located in the Wanxiang Star System, which is the core area of the Federation."

"Until that incident happened, Heaven-Filling Dojo then relocated from the core region to the Glazed Star System, located at the frontier."

"When the disciples of Heaven-Filling Dojo achieve significant advancements, they will also head to the battlefield, to prove themselves on the battlefield, to hone themselves, inheriting the will of their predecessors."

"Because of Heaven-Filling Dojo’s reputation, there have continuously been many outstanding young people from other star systems coming to the Glazed Star System to join the dojo."

Qin Jin remained silent.

During the journey, through Candle Kite, Qin Jin developed a basic understanding of his first destination.

Heaven-Filling Dojo, the name Mi Tian, is exceedingly grand, and its origins are genuinely astonishing.

Before every Martial Arts Academy was founded, martial arts inheritance primarily relied on dojos. At that time... within the Federation, martial arts powerhouses either established dojos or sought disciples to leave inheritance.

And Heaven-Filling Dojo is precisely the heritage left by a Federation Martial God.

Mi Tian Martial God!

This is one of the early Martial God pioneers that emerged within the Federation, a contemporary of Mr. Chen Shu of Martial Abyss, and the incident referred to by Candle Kite is precisely the fall of Mi Tian Martial God. It was after that event that Heaven-Filling Dojo relocated to the Glazed Star System, where it continued, gradually becoming a beacon attracting newcomers.

Martial Abyss, and even the seniors who favor Qin Jin, have high expectations. The destinations marked on the Martial Saint Map are naturally not simple places.

The Xingzhou Ship transitions in its journey.

In the central southern part of the Glazed Star System, it is considered prosperous. However, as the starship heads north, the speed of commercial and civilian starships drastically decreases, replaced by fleet-mode patrolling military starships; upon reaching any star domain, strict identity verification is required.

Within the star domain, giant star fortresses and colossal structures are often seen scattered around.

This is not the primary battlefield of the Federation’s conquests, yet a chilling aura already permeates.

After a journey.

Upon completing another transition, [Lin Yuan Star] comes into view.

From the star map, it appears entirely unnaturally mirror-white; upon arriving in person, it becomes clear after gazing upon it, the source of this unique color. This planet has evidently undergone technological layout similar to the Federation Ancestral Star.

This mirror-white appears similar to the effects following a barrier’s manifestation.

Post identity verification, the starship enters, and the intelligent navigation within the planet connects with Candle Kite to guide them, ultimately descending and docking among a sprawling complex of large buildings.

"Let’s go."

With a faint call, Qin Jin aligns himself, ensuring everything is correct, and lets Candle Kite return to the personal terminal before departing the starship.

The hatch opens.

The outside world is revealed.

"Ordinary."

This is the first impression Qin Jin formed.

After genuinely living on Gaia Planet, coming to this ordinary life planet, the notable changes can be immediately sensed.

Alighting from the gangway, Qin Jin vaguely hears fervent shouts coming from the distance, filled with passion, as if many people are engaging in combat.

Before the gangway, at this docking site, two figures stand waiting.

Both are dressed in martial arts uniforms embroidered with the dojo emblem, one a middle-aged person, the other relatively young, seemingly around the same age as Qin Jin.
