The Mecha Driver Is a Cultivator

”Your talent is far more astounding than I had imagined.”

”In the cultivation of martial arts, there are those who excel early on, and others who rise later. You seem to possess both aspects, as the cultivation path deepens, more potential is unearthed, becoming increasingly extraordinary.”

”Qin Jin.”

His gaze shifted back to Qin Jin: ”Since you have such incredible talent, seize everything.”

”Step by step, ascend to the High Realm, become renowned in the Star Sea, dominate the Star Sea, until... surpass the Star Sea.”

”Only in this way can you truly grasp everything and decide everything.”

His tone carried a hint of sentimentality.

Qin Jin could discern the expectation in his voice and replied, ”Teacher Chu, I understand.”

Chu Tianyi smiled.

He slightly raised his eyebrow: ”Last time, you inquired about Spiritual Energy, are you very interested in the Spiritualist profession?”

Upon hearing this, Qin Jin earnestly replied, ”I became interested after encountering other Spiritualists within the Star Dome Limit-Breaking Cup.”

”Moreover, while studying in the Martial Abyss, I learned that martial arts are a unique evolutionary path of our Starfire Federation. However, Spiritualists are quite different; other civilizations also have evolution paths akin to Spiritualists, a special Profession.”

”It’s just that we refer to it as Spiritual Energy, while other civilizations might call it differently, and the specific methods of Insight and Learning also vary.”

”Exactly so.”

Chu Tianyi nodded.

When Qin Jin asked last time, he was preoccupied with other matters and only sent some brief information. Now, he spoke in earnest, ”In the Star Sea, any race, any intelligent life, even Extraordinary Beasts, can potentially become a [Spiritualist].”

”Because Spiritual Energy is one of the Primordial Powers of the universe, it is equal to all life.”

”The only requirement to become a Spiritualist is to awaken Spiritual Talent, which is the information promoted to the outside.”

”In reality, though this information is true, it can be more detailed. To become a Spiritualist, it is necessary to attract the attention of the Spiritual Realm and form a connection with it. The so-called Spiritual Talent is a term used after establishing this connection.”

”Only the special existences among life are chosen by the Spiritual Realm, hence... Spiritualists have become synonymous with [genius].”

At this point.

Chu Tianyi asked, ”Do you want to take a look at the Spiritual Realm?”

Upon hearing this, Qin Jin’s eyes lit up.

Chu Tianyi mentioned this in the last message, to which he was quite looking forward, thus he nodded directly: ”Of course.”

Brilliance flowed in Chu Tianyi’s eyes.

In an instant, a thin barrier rose around the entire villa area, shielding it from outside observation.

At the same time, the black and gold Pentagram in his right eye rotated, and as it rotated, Spiritual Energy was drawn out, manifested externally.

Marine blue Spiritual Power emerged in the void, intertwining like a celestial net, and at the center of the net appeared an identical pattern to the black and gold Pentagram, which slowly rotated to form a portal, suspended above.

”Let’s go.”

Chu Tianyi’s voice fell, his figure ascended into the air, Spiritual Energy surrounded Qin Jin, who followed suit. The two figures entered the Pentagram’s portal, disappearing in an instant.

...

This is a sensation different from teleportation, the moment after passing through the portal, in his vision and perception, there was first a stretch of darkness, followed by an incredibly dense and innumerable amount of Spiritual Power entering his perception, and his vision gradually cleared, no longer dark.

Chu Tianyi’s voice resounded.

”Here is the Spiritual Realm.”

Qin Jin’s gaze turned towards the four directions.

At first glance, his gaze became sharply focused.

The ground beneath his feet was flat but not an ordinary flat surface; it was akin to a mirror-like presence. Within the mirror’s reflection, one could distinctly see the villa, reflecting the interior of the planet outside the villa.

It looked like a mirrored reflection.

However...

Everything on the mirror surface beneath his feet truly had color, seeming to genuinely exist.

At the same time, the world Qin Jin found himself in also had the villa, had everything around it, but they were all marine blue, as if composed of Spiritual Energy.

The villa he lived in seemed to have become the intersection between reality and the Spiritual Realm!

”Quite magical, isn’t it?”

Chu Tianyi’s voice arose by his side: ”Wherever you enter from the real world, that is your starting point in the Spiritual Realm.”

”You can consider the Spiritual Realm as a mirror world of the real universe!”

”However, everything here is constructed from Spiritual Energy.”

After he spoke these words.

Surrounded by Spiritual Power, Chu Tianyi took Qin Jin, rapidly ascending into the sky, leaving the planet, truly stepping into the Star Sea.

Everything in the real universe was replicated.

Qin Jin saw the [Thunder Star] formed of Spiritual Energy, saw the large Star Gate under construction around Thunder Star. If not for its obvious Spiritual Energy construction, it would be almost an exact replica.

”Within the Spiritual Realm, almost the entire real universe is mirrored and replicated, but some parts couldn’t be replicated, among which the most important part is...”

”Life.”

”Qin Jin, have you realized the importance of the Spiritual Realm?”

Qin Jin exhaled deeply.

Before he personally arrived here, he hadn’t expected the Spiritual Realm to be like this.

Upon hearing this question, he thoughtfully nodded and spoke, ”The Federation should have made arrangements inside the Spiritual Realm, taken precautions.”

”Exactly.”

Seeing Qin Jin understand immediately, Chu Tianyi nodded: ”In the early days of the Federation, when there was no understanding of the Spiritual Realm, it truly experienced nearly catastrophic crises, some of which arose due to the Spiritual Realm.”
