The flames roared, sweeping in.
Under Qin Jin's control, a faint halo rose from the black and red paint of the Deep Driller, encircling the mecha.
Energy Shield, activated!
The extraordinary flames crashed into the energy shield, creating ripples, as Qin Jin raised his right arm. The Deep Driller followed his action, and under the mental connection, the right arm of the mecha transformed, producing a drill head.
In an instant, the drill rapidly rotated, accompanied by giant power, violently striking the abdomen of the Fire Python.
The drill collided with the scales, sparks flying in all directions, and a piercing screech of friction sounded.
About the time of one breath.
The scales of the Fire Python suddenly shattered!
The Deep Driller was equipped with the [Hongtu Seventh Generation Deep Drilling Drill Head], a product of a large corporation, usually facing precious minerals that meet a certain standard of hardness.
This Fire Python possessed extraordinary power, far surpassing ordinary creatures, but ultimately it was still flesh and blood.
With the scales broken, the Deep Driller's drill entered the flesh unimpeded!
Flame-colored blood, like magma, stained the machine, as the drill punched through directly!
Unable to bear the excruciating pain, the Fire Python let out a wail.
Qin Jin did not halt his actions. As the drill pierced through, the Deep Driller's left arm stretched out and grasped the Python Head.
His arms extended, like tearing apart, the rapidly rotating Deep Driller drill being unstoppable, creating a terrifying wound that split and pierced through the whole abdomen of the Fire Python, nearly severing it in two.
Qin Jin swung his left arm downward, slamming the Fire Python onto the ground fiercely.
At the same time.
Under Qin Jin's control, the shoulder of the Deep Driller transformed, with over a dozen cannons emerging.
[Fire God II Type Machine Cannon]
The original Deep Driller lacked such an attack module, which was one of Qin Jin's modifications over this period.
As the cannon stored energy and was about to unleash its firepower, Qin Jin halted his action.
Because the Fire Python on the ground before him had already lost signs of life.
[Unknown Creature]
(Deceased)
[Scan Result]: Extraordinary creature, the source of strength is a special crystal within the python's head, possessing fire control ability.
"In comparison to its attack methods, the scale defense is limited, like a glass cannon."
Qin Jin thought to himself.
In the vast Star Sea universe, there are also extraordinary creatures.
Qin Jin's parents were professional exploration team members, and he had heard and seen some information. Extraordinary creatures are relatively rare, and their bodies often possess considerable value.
Therefore, after confirming the opponent's death, he did not waste firepower to deal the final blow, to avoid damaging the body of the Fire Python.
From Qin Jin's arrival to the resolution of the Fire Python, everything happened in an instant.
In the battlefield, a group of primitive people dressed in animal skins were full of caution, watching the massive Deep Driller.
With Python Blood staining it, the Deep Driller appeared even more profound.
Qin Jin glanced around.
Upon closer observation, the composition of this group of primitive people was rather peculiar.
The elderly, women, and children.
Babbling toddlers, white-haired elderly, and even among the dead bodies on the ground, there weren't many young adults.
Scattered around were some bundles wrapped in animal skins, seemingly their carried baggage.
"This group of people seems to have fled here."
Qin Jin made a preliminary judgment.
Just as he pondered how to communicate with these people.
In the battlefield, an elder looked at the Deep Driller, with his breath changing continuously. Finally, as if making a decision, he unexpectedly set down the bone weapon in his hand voluntarily.
He spoke loudly in a language Qin Jin didn't understand, exchanging words with the others. Although hesitant, they followed his lead and set down their weapons.
Qin Jin did not act, quietly observing all of this.
Under the call of the leading elder, a group gathered together, with the elder in front and women holding children behind.
Finally.
Under Qin Jin's gaze, the elder took the lead and knelt down.
The tribesmen behind him retrieved glowing Exotic Bones, Rare Ore, and Great Medicine from their animal skin bundles, placing them in front, and then knelt along with the elder.
The frontmost elder, with a devout expression, clasped his hands as if reciting sutras, murmuring seriously, then prostrated with his hands on the ground facing the Deep Driller miner.
A vast number of people prostrated behind him.
"Are they..."
"Offering sacrifices?"
"Worshiping me?"
Qin Jin tried to comprehend their actions.
But immediately...
His gaze focused.
With these over thirty people prostrating, Qin Jin could see vaguely with the naked eye, a thin golden cloud appeared above the crowd.
The cloud floated, drifting to the surroundings of the Deep Driller.
Qin Jin felt a stir in his heart.
The Martial Arts Family hone themselves, enhancing life energy, and their perception gradually improves.
He could sense a feeling of desire towards this golden cloud.
This golden cloud was immensely beneficial to him!
Meanwhile.
As the golden cloud approached, the profession panel quietly emerged.
Beside [Martial Arts Family] [Mecha Refitter], new information appeared.
[Unknown]
"Does this golden cloud also involve the generation of a new profession?"
During the awakening of the panel in the past two months, Qin Jin still could not fully determine what kind of profession could be recorded on the panel, or the specific conditions for profession generation.
This was undoubtedly an unexpected gain from this exploration.
Thoughts flashed in his mind, and looking at the prostrate elders and weak at his feet, who dared not meet his gaze, Qin Jin raised his right arm, and the right arm of the Deep Driller followed, actively touching the golden cloud.
Upon contact.
The golden cloud seemed to have found a target, converging into a torrent, pouring towards the Deep Driller.
During the influx, the cloud split into two streams, one falling on the Deep Driller, and one merging into Qin Jin himself.
The Deep Driller, originally black and red, with the integration of the cloud, emitted a golden glow around the machine. The glow persisted for several breaths and gradually faded.
Eventually, a golden pattern emerged on the chest of the Deep Driller.
Simultaneously.
Inside the cockpit.
The cloud fused into the physique, and Qin Jin felt a burning sensation covering his body. He clearly sensed his life energy surging, with his physique enhancing and his Life Index climbing rapidly!
17 points.
18 points.
19 points!
This was an unprecedented rapid rise, an extraordinary opportunity.
Upon reaching the critical point of the Newborn Realm, the surge slightly abated.
Qin Jin surveyed himself.
He could sense his life energy growing extremely active, with power continuously accumulating within his physique.
The Life Index was a comprehensive data calculated based on life energy, combined with other aspects such as physical strength.
Every point of increase in the Life Index had significant effects for a Martial Arts Family.
At this moment, if there was a Force Tester in front, he could unleash even more astonishing power.
Moreover...
Qin Jin acutely noticed that his life energy enhancement did not consume the golden cloud. It seemed to be a side effect of the opponent.
After the golden cloud completely integrated into his physique, it transformed into a golden thread, imprinted on his palm.
This golden thread could appear or disappear at his will.
"Only one last step to New Life."
He gazed at the golden thread in his palm: "The initial contact with this power triggered my life energy significantly, with noticeable improvement.
The influence of this special power made the life energy increasingly active, assisting cultivation. Next, my progress in Martial Arts will be astonishing."
Thoughts passed, Qin Jin turned his gaze forward.
With the integration of the golden cloud, the over thirty people prostrated on the ground seemed to have sensed something as well. After straightening their bodies, they prostrated again to perform the salutation, their expressions increasingly devout.
The leading elder in the front even had tears welling up in his eyes, a look of relief on his face.
"Are they happy because I accepted their worship?"
Qin Jin whispered in his heart, looking at the profession panel.
On the profession panel, the third profession was no longer unknown, having completely formed.
