Chapter 53: Chapter 51: Preheating Condensing Intent! As Qin Jin’s words fell, a ripple appeared on Yu Sheng and Jiang Panxia’s expressions. Yu Sheng had already realized the gap between him and Qin Jin during that very day, but when Qin Jin spoke, he couldn’t help losing focus for a moment. Starting the cultivation journey concurrently with others and competing personally on this path most vividly highlights where the differences lie. Moments later, he regained his composure, feeling calm and clicking his tongue, saying, "Brother Jin, as expected from you." "Entering the Condensation Realm at such a time, if the academies in the Star Sea knew, they might offer special recruitment before the selection exams." Qin Jin remained noncommittal. Jiang Panxia’s gaze stayed on Qin Jin. The ripple on her face faded, and she concisely called, "Captain." This undoubtedly showed her stance. Qin Jin slightly nodded. He spoke calmly, "You should all already know what our ultimate mission is." The two nodded. Seeing this, Qin Jin continued, "I have only one requirement for you during the Star God’s Chosen One: act according to my instructions with me as the leader." "Understood." Yu Sheng replied first, with a serious expression, "Brother Jin, my abilities are limited, but I will do my utmost to assist you." "No problem." Jiang Panxia promptly spoke. After the condensation of Divine Intent, Qin Jin’s spiritual power continuously grew. The answers from the two likewise caused a fluctuation on a spiritual level; he could sense their seriousness. Qin Jin’s gaze turned towards another side. "Teacher Su." Su Chaotang spoke, "Follow me." The three followed Su Chaotang and walked towards one side of the base. Su Chaotang led ahead, his voice steady. "It’s still uncertain how many forces have obtained the invitation to the Chosen One." "To avoid greater chaos, the Federation has been very restrained regarding the Chosen One, maintaining fairness as much as possible." "However..." "During this time, you’ve been diligently improving yourselves, and my other colleagues haven’t been idle either. We’ve gathered some information on [competitors], which I’ll send to your communication devices shortly." Qin Jin slightly nodded. As he listened to Su Chaotang, he couldn’t help but recall Teacher Chu’s initial words about the Star God. "It’s imaginable that when the Federation first discovered the emergence of the Star God, perceiving it as profitable, it might have caused significant turmoil." "This is the tragic incident Teacher Chu once mentioned." "Seeking divine spirits is inherently a risky endeavor; if internal disputes arise..." His eyes lowered slightly. "Hence, after that incident, the Federation set up rules and established the Chosen One, minimizing the intensity of the conflict." Following behind Su Chaotang, Qin Jin and the three arrived at a warehouse in the base. Su Chaotang stood at the front, and after identity verification, the warehouse door rose. His voice echoed. "In the area where the Star God emerges, technological creations will be severely impacted." "Similar to Spiritual Energy, the Evolvers of the Esoteric Buddhism line will face extreme suppression in this area, even being life-threatening." "Evolvers who’ve undergone mechanical and genetic modifications will be repelled by the unconscious power of the Star God due to their impurity." "Thus..." "You Martial Arts Family members, born on the Mining Star and sharing origins with the Star God, have become primary candidates for the Chosen One." "In that area, you can only rely on the purest martial energy and your own life energy!" The gate rose. Inside, there were sets of combat attire and neatly arranged primitive weapons like swords, spears, axes, and others. Su Chaotang entered first and pointed at three sets of attire placed at the front. "These are specially tailored for you by the boss." "From material to craftsmanship, each detail has been meticulously refined to ensure maximum protection without affecting the Chosen involvement." Qin Jin’s gaze fell on them. They were three full-body combat suits, black and gold in color, with a Pentagram embroidered on the chest. "Choose your weapons." Su Chaotang walked inside, "The weapons here are crafted from special woods combined with alloy, highly sensitive to life energy, considered a divine weapon in ancient times." "Choose what you plan to use yourself." As his words fell, Yu Sheng instinctively looked towards Qin Jin. "Go ahead and choose." Qin Jin’s voice echoed. Upon hearing this, the other two entered the warehouse one after another and soon completed their selections. Yu Sheng chose a long saber, its blade shining like autumn water under the light. Jiang Panxia opted for a long spear. Though her height was average, holding the spear with one hand while standing still provided a somewhat striking contrast. Facing the gaze Qin Jin handed over, she spoke, "I’ve practiced." Qin Jin realized. His gaze swept over the knives and swords in front of him, over one weapon after another. Knives, spears, swords, halberds. Qin Jin had never really considered which weapon he would use. After all, in the grand backdrop of the Star Sea, opportunities to fight with such primitive weapons are rare, perhaps only martial arts family participating in arena competitions would use them. Shifting his gaze sideways, Qin Jin thought of the great halberd held by his divine intent. Immediately, he himself rejected this option. Weapons like this, if used rashly without familiarity, would have negative effects instead. "Since that’s the case, let’s use something relatively simple and pure." He set his target, stepped forward a few steps, and under the gaze of the other three, picked up a weapon from the platform. It was a weapon resembling a finger tiger, with a grip identical to a finger tiger, but the attack side was finely crafted, worn on both hands, looking like two sharp beast heads ready to devour. Under the light, the metallic color flowed. From the weapon’s perspective, finger tiger is a very impractical weapon. However, for Qin Jin, his biggest reliance is himself, since he has pure numerical strength, he would deliver it with the most straightforward punches! "Once this matter is over, I can go learn a weapon, see if it can show up on the profession panel." As the thought flashed by, facing the unexpected look from Su Chaotang, he looked at Yu Sheng and the other two. "Let’s go, set off." The three-person team was formed. Upon leaving the base, they entered directly into the wilderness. With the star God’s conception approaching, the environment of the mining star was harsher, within the wilderness, the energy constructs Qin Jin had encountered before had significantly increased. The group of three, carrying simple supplies, battled and honed themselves in the wilderness. This was both to familiarize with each other and initially familiarize with the environment. In this process, time flew by. Star God’s Chosen One. Near at hand! ... Night falls. Qin Jin rarely returned home. After being away for a while, there was still a sense of "life" at home, Aunt Tang and Yan Yue often came over to tidy up and clean. "Tomorrow, we will set off." Qin Jin murmured to himself. As his thoughts moved, the teleportation gate on the panel was activated, arriving at the Great Wilderness. The Great Wilderness was also under the cover of night. But within the Sacrificial Fire Tribe, the flames flickered, lights were brightly lit. The gradually growing tribe, no longer as desolate as in the past. Consuming wish power, Qin Jin contacted Qi Chuan through heart voice, explaining some things. Participating in the star God’s chosen one, not knowing how much time it would take, he naturally needed to prepare early. After some arrangements. Qin Jin’s heart stirred, taking out the "Mountains and Rivers" he carried with him. Under the surrounding wish power, its abnormality was concealed, appearing like an ordinary fragment. "Star God, Immortal Treasure." "Space expansion equipment can’t be brought into that area either, failure is minor, if ordinary space equipment is affected by divine power, it might even cause space collapse." "Then..." "Can this treasure from the Great Wilderness be taken in?" After pondering for a while, Qin Jin ultimately shook his head, hiding it with wish power, leaving it in the sacrificial spirit hall. Here, a restriction set by wish power made it the safest place. Even with this fragment, its function is quite limited. He participates in the star God’s chosen one, naturally having the thought of becoming the final victor. Moreover, with various forces gathered, the attention level is maximized. Therefore, he must actively avoid any potential accidents. Divine intent climbs to a height, overlooking the Sacrificial Fire Tribe for a while. Qin Jin’s figure disappeared within the sacrificial spirit hall. ... The next day. Morning. The artificial sun in Xinyang District had not yet risen. Qin Jin arrived at the base. At the moment of entering the base, Qin Jin looked up towards the sky. As the gaze went, all he could see was a silhouetted figure in a trench coat standing atop the Echoes of the Heart Abyss. Chu Tianyi!
