The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Combat Technique

This is a question worth pondering.

“It seems that I’ll have to take it over and experiment a bit.”

“If there are no issues, with a stable energy supply, some related weaponry and equipment can be brought to the agenda.”

“However, in that case, thirty-five thousand Star Yuan would be somewhat tight.”

Qin Jin pondered in his heart.

With the identity of a Sacrificial Spirit as a foundation, the most crucial issue of trust is assured, introducing technology into the Great Wilderness Sacrificial Fire Tribe seems inevitable in Qin Jin’s eyes.

However…

His current Star Yuan reserves are in a rather awkward situation.

The members of the Sacrificial Fire Tribe are not ordinary people to begin with; after being taught the Breathing Technique, they have more room to grow. The ancient and primitive weaponry is cheap but offers limited help to them, barely better than nothing against Fierce Beasts, while more advanced weapons are beyond what Qin Jin can afford now.

“For now, it’s best to keep the Sacrificial Fire Tribe pure, focusing on cultivating the Breathing Technique and the Visualization Technique used in advanced stages to enhance individual strength.”

“In the Great Wilderness, the complexity of human nature is far greater compared to the instinct-driven behavior of Fierce Beasts.”

“The rampage of Ancient Relic Species provides a safe zone for the current Sacrificial Fire Tribe within certain boundaries, but as time passes, they will inevitably come into contact with other human tribes. Without sufficient strength to back up the use of novel technological equipment, it will inevitably invite prying eyes.”

“At that time, it will instead bring about disaster.”

In the flow of his thoughts, Qin Jin made his final decision.

“The next time I return to the Great Wilderness, I will start organizing hunts for the surrounding Fierce Beasts.”

“When the Sacrificial Fire Tribe develops to a certain scale and their strength improves, and I have some savings, then I’ll start buying weaponry and equipment, making the Sacrificial Fire Tribe a dominant tribe in the surrounding region!”

He began placing orders on the trading platform.

The purchase direction focused on his own cultivation, such as Secret Medicine that can assist in refining the physique and Incense that can soothe the spirit…

In the Federation, there are countless Martial Arts Families, and everything related to low-tier Martial Arts Families has long been systematized, with stable prices.

After a round of purchases, Qin Jin got up and left.

He surrounded his Spiritual Power with Wish Power, keenly observing the surrounding situation, and first chose another route to proceed.

Confirming no one was following or secretly watching, he changed direction and headed towards his destination.

Bai Qiushi, as an Esoteric Practitioner, showed a longstanding willingness to cooperate amicably.

However, one must always be cautious of others.

…

Xinyang District First Senior High School.

As one of the five major survival areas of the Mining Star, Xinyang District houses twelve senior high schools.

According to the information Qin Jin knew, many years ago, there were no courses related to the evolution route of Martial Arts Families in schools affiliated with the Federation.

At that time, the evolution route was already perfected but still in a “wild” state. Speaking of Martial Arts Families, there were martial arts halls established by inheritors of various schools on the Life Planet.

Later, when the Federation officially established curricula, and the top academies in the Star System set up related specialties, martial arts halls gradually declined and became places for supplementary lessons.

According to Wen Jinglun’s words, Qin Jin arrived at the special area of the school library.

Taking out his student card and verifying his identity information on the instrument, the door opened in front of him, and Qin Jin walked inside.

What came into view was a sign about the height of a person, inscribed with four large characters.

[Basic Combat Technique]

Inside a room approximately one hundred square meters in size, bookshelves were arranged.

On the shelves, there were not paper books, nor the precious Martial Arts Crystals like the Thunder Elephant Visualization Technique, but rather thumb-sized, specially-made storage drives that could wirelessly connect with communication wristbands.

Next to each storage drive, there was a display screen showing information about each combat technique.

Qin Jin’s gaze swept across the room, and his eyes narrowed.

In this combat technique area, there was a figure, sitting on a chair at the far side of the room.

It was a woman, with a delicate appearance; she wore a purple casual vest on top and jeans on bottom, her shapely figure fully revealed, her right arm resting on the table, chin in hand, watching him.

What was notable was…

On the table in front of her, there was also a long saber with a sheath.

“A master.”

Qin Jin intuitively thought to himself.

Having broken through the Newborn Realm, his five senses were enhanced, and he diligently practiced the Visualization Technique, making his spirit sharp.

However, the moment he entered the combat technique area, he did not sense anyone else’s presence.

Only after using his vision did he notice the other person.

Qin Jin looked at the woman, and she looked at him.

After a gaze lasting several seconds, Qin Jin retracted his gaze, turned around, and walked towards the bookshelves to start browsing.

It being a holiday, entering the combat technique area required identity verification, and there were no signs of damage around, so… there was nothing to worry about.

As he shuttled among the bookshelves, occasionally stopping to check, he finally confirmed his first target.

[One-Sided Annihilation]

[Introduction]: A simplified basic version of the combat technique “Ten Directions Annihilation,” executing this combat technique puts Life Energy in a boiling state, entering a varying time of annihilation state based on mastery, enhancing combat power.

After the annihilation state ends, Life Energy momentarily lapses into dormancy, causing the Martial Arts Family to enter a varying time of weakness.

An explosive combat technique.

Such combat techniques often allow Martial Arts Families to unleash combat power surpassing their limits in a short time, but the side effects are also extremely apparent.

But, for Qin Jin, this isn’t an issue.

After all, aside from [Martial Arts Family], he also has the [Sacrificial Spirit] profession.

Wish Power is an exceptionally unique power, possessing multiple uses; healing and recovery are among them.

“For the same basic combat technique, those that can temporarily enhance basic attributes must surely be superior to others.”

“Now let’s see where the limits of Wish Power are.”

The thought flashed through his mind as Qin Jin initiated a wireless connection.

The content of the [One-Sided Annihilation] combat technique was imported into his wristband, including video tutorials, forbidden matters, and a series of information.

Qin Jin started browsing other combat techniques.

At that moment.

In the room, the woman’s voice arose.

“Choosing this type for the first combat technique, not common.”

Her voice was calm, with a metallic quality to it.

Qin Jin turned back and looked at the woman.

“Truly came for me.”

The thought flashed in his mind, and Qin Jin’s tone was steady: “Senior, do you have any guidance?”

“Human Life Energy is similar, but through practicing different Breathing Techniques, the Life Energy of a Martial Arts Family manifests subtle differences.”

The woman rose from her seat, with a slight chest heave, she walked over to the bookshelf.

“You practice the Thunder Beast Breathing Technique; your Life Energy carries a fierce undertone. Among these basic combat techniques, the most suitable for you should be this one.”

Qin Jin’s gaze followed.

[Thunder Prohibition True Understanding]

He didn’t hesitate, initiating a wireless connection, and received the combat technique information into his wristband for subsequent cultivation.

Being recognized as a “genius” by Wen Jinglun, the school didn’t limit the number of combat techniques he could select.

With the aid of the profession panel, cultivating two combat techniques simultaneously was far from the extent of being spread too thin.

The combat technique was recorded.

Qin Jin’s gaze fell on the woman.

“Were you called by Teacher Wen, Senior? What should I call you?”

His tone was quite assured.

“Qin Jin, you arrived later than I anticipated.”

The woman said this, then adjusted her expression, and continued, “Wuyuan Academy, Martial Arts Series employed researcher.”

“Zhong Yi.”
