"In the Star Sea, there also exist extraordinary creatures with energy crystals. Without the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Power of the Great Wilderness, it's unknown how they condense these energy crystals."
"There are too many unknowns."
Lost in thought.
Qin Jin turned around and strode quickly toward the Deep Driller.
"Even with Wish Power assistance, I'm still too weak."
He muttered to himself in his heart.
"It's not just my strength. My knowledge, vision, experience, and status are all too weak."
"If I had some support in the Federation, I could even establish a specialized large team for research, and the efficiency could be greatly improved."
"I need to keep improving myself to achieve my original plan."
"Fortunately."
"There is still plenty of time."
He exhaled a long breath, his eyes filled with determination, and slightly clenched his fist: "In the short time I've been in the Great Wilderness, I've already gained significant achievements. Now I need to transform all of this into the foundation of my personal growth."
"One day."
"All problems will be solved easily."
Grasping the protrusion of the Deep Driller, he exerted his strength, climbing back to the cockpit.
His thoughts slightly moved, and the profession panel appeared.
"These three professions form the strength I have now."
"In the coming time, in addition to cultivation, I can also try some things to see if I can trigger the emergence of a fourth profession."
The Deep Driller took big strides forward.
Qin Jin began a new round of cultivation.
The steadily growing values on the panel had a special allure, serving as the ultimate motivation-enhancing elixir.
Only through rigorous cultivation!
...
Qin Jin had completely entered the state of rigorous cultivation.
This time, except for spending time daily going back to the Mining Star to confirm if anyone else was searching for him, he stayed in the Great Wilderness even at night.
Purchasing secret medicine from the platform, incense was gradually put in place. Except for necessary rest, he devoted himself entirely to cultivation.
Before the Great Sun rose, he was already practicing the Breathing Technique, tempering his physique. As night fell, he practiced the Visualization Technique, honing his spirit.
The Deep Driller followed the route, getting closer to the great battleground compiled from the gathered data.
During this period, Qin Jin encountered many fierce beasts.
As a member of the Martial Arts Family, martial combat was essential. He no longer relied on the Deep Driller but faced the fierce beasts himself, honing his skills through real combat encounters.
Of course.
If he encountered opponents whose power far exceeded his expectations, he would not stubbornly resist to the end. He would either use Wish Power to obscure his retreat or maneuver the Deep Driller, using all tactics to strike with thunderous force.
Along the way, Qin Jin even spotted some rare fruits, picking them and recording the locations of the treasures.
In this brief journey, he gained enormously.
The primitive survival environment and undisturbed pure cultivation allowed his spirit to be cleansed, becoming ever purer.
Having stayed long in the Great Wilderness, his appearance was somewhat unkempt, but Qin Jin's eyes grew increasingly brighter, his spirit continuously ascending.
On the seventh day of setting out from the Sacrificial Fire Tribe.
The Deep Driller stood by, and Qin Jin set up a charcoal fire, taking out the fierce beast meat he had acquired, and had a wilderness cookout in the Great Wilderness.
The unique fragrance under the burning of primal timber was enticing.
The meat chunks continually turned, sprinkled with seasoning, and the aroma of grilling was mouthwatering.
Qin Jin directly grabbed the roasted meat and feasted heartily, feeling satisfied while looking in the direction that the Deep Driller faced.
"It's been more than half a day since I saw a fierce beast."
"Most fierce beasts act by instinct, and will directly choose to flee when they sense danger."
"The battle between those two terrifying beings likely cleared out a safe zone."
"The direction this time should be correct."
The final route deduced from the memories of those four could only be considered roughly complete.
In the Great Wilderness, the geographical environment is complex and lacks obvious markers. Even though Qin Jin's speed was faster than those fleeing clansmen, it still took quite a bit of time to search back.
However, he was not impatient and remained calm.
Because every day, he could feel his progress.
After eating and tidying up, Qin Jin boarded the Deep Driller and continued his journey.
About half an hour after moving forward.
With the prompt sound from the mining machine, Qin Jin stopped the operation of the Breathing Technique.
The scanning module of the Deep Driller had been on, gathering surrounding information.
Now, having entered this area, the surrounding temperature had dropped.
He halted his cultivation, driving the Deep Driller, concentrating his spirit.
Continuing along the planned route, with the scanning module's prompt information, the temperature kept dropping, some plants even covered with white frost.
There is no doubt...
This was the influence of extraordinary power.
After advancing about five more kilometers, the Deep Driller took another step forward, and suddenly Qin Jin clearly sensed spiritual pressure approaching.
That feeling was similar to what he experienced during his daily practice of the Visualization Technique.
Withstanding the pressure, Qin Jin marched forward relentlessly, honing his spirit.
The surrounding temperature further decreased.
Vaguely, Qin Jin heard fierce roaring sounds, as if a giant beast was faintly discernible before him, covering the sky.
This was caused by the spiritual pressure.
Qin Jin's heart remained clear, undaunted by the illusions, and he continued onward.
After advancing a few hundred meters further.
With a thought, Qin Jin used Wish Power to protect his spirit, reducing the pressure sharply, dispelling all illusions like the clouds parting to reveal the sun. His gaze focused suddenly ahead.
In his sight, there was actually an ice plain!
Originally a wilderness with dense forests and vegetation, now, within a certain range, everything was frozen beneath ice crystals as if they had become lifelike specimens, vivid and alive.
"It seems the two Great Suns in the sky might be blocked by something, performing only the function of a normal sun for the Great Wilderness."
"Otherwise, even if this is the remnants of extraordinary creatures, it shouldn't be able to form an ice plain under the sunlight from the Great Sun Golden Crow."
This was the first thought that emerged in Qin Jin's mind.
His gaze followed across the ice plain, finally focusing on the center.
There stood an ice mountain.
The ice mountain sat there, with its top covered in crystal-clear ice, beneath which was buried a massive beast with a twisted and coiled posture.
Three-headed Exotic Python!
"Its corpse really remained here."
Qin Jin felt thrilled and observed carefully.
The Three-headed Exotic Python was covered with scars, scales shattered, flesh and blood blurred, and even the spilled blood was frozen within the ice crystals, making the scene somewhat bloody.
At the forefront of the python's body.
Its three python heads, either lowered or raised, were placed together, each with a different expression, all appearing fierce.
The only similarity is...
All three python heads had been cut open, with pits and gory flesh visible.
It seemed they were deliberately destroyed, with something taken from the python heads.
"The Crystal Core."
Qin Jin instantly speculated.
"It appears the Horse-headed God took the Crystal Core after slaying it."
"All three python heads have wounds; did it nurture three Crystal Cores?"
Understanding this, Qin Jin was not discouraged.
He had been prepared for the possibility that the corpse might have been taken by the Horse-headed God when he set out.
But such extraordinary creatures, when they battle, are unparalleled, and their blood dripping onto plants could spawn rare treasures, which is exactly what Qin Jin was seeking.
"The blood, flesh, bones, and scales are all here."
"A great harvest!"
With a slight movement of thought, Qin Jin released the Wish Power that protected his spirit.
Without the protection of Wish Power, the diminished pressure rose again, and in Qin Jin's spiritual world, the Three-headed Exotic Python buried in the ice crystals seemed to come alive, with its body coiling upwards towards the sky, the python heads gazing down, staring coldly at Qin Jin.
The spiritual pressure swept in
Though the dragon is dead, its might remains.
The dragon species carries dragon might, even after death, its corpse still exudes pressure.
This Three-headed Exotic Python, showing signs of Jiao Transformation, also possessed this trait.
