Chapter 54: Chapter 52: Resonance He stood above, gazing directly toward the distant horizon. "Captain." Just at this moment. A voice echoed from the front. Jiang Panxia’s long spear was tied with fabric resembling satin, complementing her heroic appearance, giving off a vibe reminiscent of a heroine in a novel chronicle. Behind her. Yu Sheng carried a knife on his back, full of energy and spirit. "How is it?" Qin Jin’s demeanor was relaxed as he asked, "Are you all ready?" "Of course!" Yu Sheng’s tone was somewhat enthusiastic: "I never thought I could be part of something like this." "The birth of a Divine Spirit, this ought to be recorded in the Starfire Federation’s chronicles, when the Mining Star becomes Gaia Planet, our descendants would be born with top-tier status." His eyes held a bit of longing: "I wonder what name the Mining Star will change to by then." "Brother Jin, you don’t know, earlier when I was chatting with netizens and mentioned the Mining Star’s designation, they all asked where JK was, saying it’s not the JK they wanted." "I’ve heard JK is an old fashion from the Ancestral Star before the Federation had ventured into the Star Sea, now in those bustling Life Planets, this retro trend is rising again." Qin Jin ignored Yu Sheng’s wandering thoughts and gazed at Jiang Panxia. Over this period, he had come to know his team member better. She was quite reserved but warm-hearted. As she met Qin Jin’s gaze, she nodded. And it was at this moment. Above the Echoes of the Heart Abyss. Chu Tianyi stepped forward, his figure rapidly descending, halting abruptly upon reaching the ground. "Teacher Chu." Qin Jin called out. The two beside him showed respect in their eyes. When this elimination at the base began, they had seen Chu Tianyi, knowing he was the big boss behind it. A Spiritualist eligible to participate in the Star God’s Chosen One was undoubtedly a significant figure in their eyes. "We’re about to depart." Chu Tianyi’s expression was kind as he looked at Qin Jin and the other two: "Before the Divine Spirit is born, all forces participating in this competition will converge at the [frontline]." "That is the extreme boundary of the Divine Spirit’s birth influence." "Do any of you have requests?" His inquiry echoed. Yu Sheng shook his head, Jiang Panxia hesitated briefly but didn’t speak. They had gained much from this special training and were not greedy. However, Qin Jin’s eyes showed contemplation before he spoke: "Teacher Chu, I have a small request." "Oh?" Chu Tianyi looked at him, slightly surprised: "Go ahead." Qin Jin’s gaze shifted to the massive mecha standing to the side. "I want to witness the Heart Abyss Echoes in action." With that statement. Yu Sheng’s eyes beside Qin Jin also lit up. "That’s your request?" Chu Tianyi laughed heartily, asking: "Do you really like mecha, Qin Jin?" Qin Jin nodded earnestly. He grew up on the Mining Star, watching mecha combat shows on the Interstellar Network from a young age. In the Star Sea Era, mecha embody the pinnacle of technology and extraordinary abilities; the most advanced mecha are even considered civilization treasures! 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮 Upon discovering the transmission on the panel, he decided to modify the mining machine, beyond safety considerations, perhaps to fulfill a dream. Coming to the base each day, he had been eyeballing this large mecha for quite a while now. "It’s great to like mecha." Chu Tianyi showed no arrogance, smiling: "Because of my fondness, I had it custom-built." "Its battle record is fairly competent." "Since you want to witness it..." As Chu Tianyi’s words fell, he soared into the air, entering the mecha. Below. The personnel inside the base couldn’t help but watch. Moments after Chu Tianyi entered the mecha, the giant mechanism at the center of the base abruptly came to life! Brilliant radiance blossomed around its body, the runes etched onto the mecha suddenly flaunted their brilliance, reflecting in the void, and rune transformations occurred. The Heart Abyss Echoes remained motionless, but at this moment, it became the epicenter, silencing the surroundings in an instant, with a pressure permeating the place. This was the extraordinary material within it resonating silently, forming something akin to a domain. Pressure pervaded. Brilliance dazzled. And at that moment. Qin Jin, Yu Sheng, and Jiang Panxia nearly simultaneously heard a "thump" sound. Like a knock on the heart’s door. It was an echo from the depths of their souls. In this echo, Qin Jin felt as if he saw a lake rippling, creating undulations. As the sound resonated, Qin Jin clearly sensed his spiritual power refining, his mind attaining a clarity. This might be some ability of the [Heart Abyss Echoes] being demonstrated. Staring at this mecha, Qin Jin suddenly gained a deeper understanding of its name. Up front. The Echoes of the Heart Abyss, showing its true complete form, then fell silent again. Chu Tianyi exited the mecha, landing and addressing them. "How does it feel?" "Thank you, Teacher Chu." Qin Jin responded. Chu Tianyi’s lips maintained a smile, speaking calmly: "No need to thank me." "I’m eagerly anticipating your performance in the Star God’s Chosen One." "Let’s move out." As he said the final sentence. Above the base, amidst the raging lightning and clouds covering the sky, a large Starship activated its defense field, breaking through the thunderclouds, swiftly descending. Like a beam of light breaking through the gloomy clouds. The Starship hovered at low altitude, its underside releasing beams of various hues. "Let’s go." Leading the way, Chu Tianyi, with Qin Jin and the others following. The entire base personnel set off together. The base’s buildings had already been cleared earlier this morning. Everyone stood beneath the beams, Chu Tianyi’s pentagram turned in his eyes, as quietly, the Heart Abyss Echoes vanished without a trace. Space expansion equipment. Truly high-end mecha, immensely huge in size, equipped with space expansion devices, is a necessary option, allowing it to be carried personally. Light shrouded. Qin Jin clearly sensed a feeling akin to teleportation. In the next instant... Everyone found themselves in the activity hall inside the Starship. "Is this...the inside of a Starship?" Beside him. Yu Sheng’s mumbling voice resonated. The Mining Star is remote, and these youngsters nurtured by it have only seen such things through the Interstellar Network; truly riding a Starship is undoubtedly a first. The interior decoration of the hall was luxurious. After everyone entered, the Starship ascended, beginning its flight. "Rest and adjust your condition." With a gesture from Chu Tianyi, three therapists approached, ready to assist Qin Jin and others in caring for their bodies. Qin Jin’s exclusive therapist, Square Bamboo, was among them. Qin Jin’s gaze scanned the area, with a hint of confusion in his eyes as he spoke: "Teacher Chu, where is Teacher Su?" "Su Chaotang?" Chu Tianyi gave a calm smile: "His mission is complete, he left with the things he wanted." "Qin Jin." "Next time you encounter him, perhaps he will already be a..." "Martial Saint." The Starship traversed through the thunderclouds. Below. Under the adverse environmental influence, the last traces of the base also rapidly vanished into nature. ... JK4176 Mining Star. At this moment. Outside the Mining Star, in the Star Sea. Nearly ten thousand military Starships of various grades and sizes silently hovered around the planet, their weapons charging. From above the Star Sea, the Mining Star’s thunder spectacle could also be seen. However... At this very moment. The entire planet was surrounded by layers of imaginary rune chains. This is lockdown. And also protection.
