Spiritualist!
To this day, he had already met Esoteric Practitioners like Bai Qiushi, who grew up on the Mining Star, and he had seen technologically modified Mechanic Modifiers, but had yet to encounter an extraordinary person focused on spiritual energy.
The evolution of spiritual energy is extremely mysterious and entirely reliant on one's own talent, making spiritual energy evolvers the rarest among the four major evolution paths.
"I wonder what kind of person this Spiritualist is."
The thought flashed across his mind as Qin Jin's fingertips touched the map in the attachment.
The map opened.
This was a map that included Xinyang District and the surrounding areas, and the marked location was outside Xinyang District.
"The destination is surprisingly in the wild."
"Is this supposed to be the initial test?"
Qin Jin raised his eyebrows slightly.
As a native of the Mining Star, he naturally knew the external situation.
The environment of the Mining Star was harsh, with the sky covered in thunder year-round. Even the transport starships from the Star Sea had to constantly deploy defensive fields to enter the Mining Star.
Through Wen Jinglun, he further understood that outside the survival zone, there were not only natural threats but also extraordinary creatures.
"According to Uncle Yan's speculation, other people might be involved as well."
"If this is a test, what age and realm are the other people in, and how will they pass?"
He pondered deeply, finally suppressing these thoughts to the bottom of his heart.
Since he was already determined to participate in this 'great opportunity,' he would take things as they come.
Qin Jin began to review other information.
[Yu Sheng]:"Brother Jin, the money was well spent. The Innate Realm Martial Arts Family guided me attentively; it's a pity you missed it."
[Yu Sheng]:"Let's spar once school starts."
[Yu Sheng]:"Still not replying, huh? Okay, okay, busy, everyone is busy."
[Wen Jinglun]: Qin Jin, I've received a message from Zhong Yi that you've passed the academy review and been placed on the observation list.
[Wen Jinglun]:"The relevant resource subsidies should be sent soon..."
[Yan Yue]:"Good luck, Qin Jin. My dad says you're going to meet the big shot, so this time you need to reach for the sky (*´∀ˋ*)"
He glanced over the messages.
Qin Jin felt much more relaxed and replied one by one.
"Being on the observation list of Wuyuan Academy is a recognition of my talent. This way, even if my advancement speed is astonishing, it won't lead people to think of anything else, but will focus on the talent itself and the resources provided by the academy."
"Yu Sheng wants to spar with me; looks like he's made considerable progress."
"Unfortunately, by the time school starts, everything might already be turned upside down."
He and Yu Sheng were good classmates, and thinking about Yu Sheng's shocked expression after school started, he couldn't help but curl his lips.
Compared to the Sacrificial Spirit role in the Great Wilderness, everything on the Mining Star enabled him to recognize his own essence more clearly.
After replying, the light screen disappeared.
Qin Jin found the large pot from the last herbal bath, and directly placed it on the fire.
He retrieved ice blocks frozen with Python Blood from the Deep Driller's storage space and placed them into the pot.
Under the burning fire, the ice blocks quickly melted, and the deep blue Python Blood entered the pot, causing the surrounding temperature to drop sharply.
"Being able to conduct a herbal bath using the blood of such a creature is indeed a fortune."
Qin Jin murmured to himself, consuming Wish Power, poured it into the pot.
He took off his clothes, revealing his strong physique, and waited silently.
Time passed.
Inside the pot, the deep blue blood was calm and silent, giving him a feeling as deep as the sea.
"Is this?"
Qin Jin inspected for a moment, then focused his gaze on the fire below.
"The ordinary flame isn't enough to trigger the power contained in the Python Blood?"
He pondered and activated Wish Power.
Strands of golden mist fell into the fire.
At that moment.
The fire surged upwards, and under Qin Jin's gaze, the flickering flames transformed into a reddish-gold color.
"Using Wish Power as fuel truly makes this the flame of faith."
The reddish-gold flame burned fiercely, causing the blood in the pot to boil.
Qin Jin hesitated no longer and jumped into the pot.
He descended with extraordinary steadiness, not causing a single splash.
Having battled fierce beasts several times in the Great Wilderness, his control over his body had improved remarkably.
Entering the pot, his body was submerged in Python Blood, and the first sensation was cold!
The continuously boiling Python Blood seemed to be heated, but upon entry, it was extremely cold.
Stinging pain attacked, and white frost formed on Qin Jin's eyebrows.
He calmed his mind, concentrated, and directly operated the Breathing Technique without being disturbed by external factors.
At that moment.
Centered on him, the Python Blood swirled and formed a vortex, with its internal power continuously pouring into his physique.
This was his second herbal bath.
But perhaps due to the Thunder Beast Breathing Technique advancing to Level 4, the speed of energy absorption significantly increased.
The icy energy torrent poured into his physique, ravaging everywhere, tempering him while trying to take over.
Qin Jin's eyes slightly closed, and Life Energy surged within, countering and breaking this torrent, transforming it into sustenance to elevate himself.
The energy absorbed into his body was shattered by the Life Energy, continuously compacting, while subsequent energy continuously converged on Qin Jin's left chest.
Energy converged, and lines of deep blue patterns faintly appeared on the skin of his left chest, closely resembling an unformed Ice Lotus.
"The Treasure Skill is starting to condense."
"Just as I suspected, this is the mark contained within the Beast Blood, evolving out of the human body."
"It's somewhat akin to a magic model."
By now, Qin Jin was no longer a newbie, seizing the opportunity to analyze seriously.
"However, both herbal baths have triggered the condensing of Treasure Skills. Am I the Innate Treasure Technique Sacred Body?"
Qin Jin sensed the changes using Spiritual Power, and just as the Treasure Skill was about to condense fully, the already accumulating Life Energy surged forward unrestrainedly, abruptly interrupting the process.
The gathered cold energy dispersed, spreading throughout his physique.
With recent contact with the Fire Sacrifice Tribe People, Qin Jin had gained deeper insights about Treasure Skills.
He did not reject this means of strengthening, as it was merely a divergence in evolution paths.
Similar to the technology path evolvers, using extreme methods like mechanical modification and genetic fusion.
However...
In the Sacrificial Fire Tribe, those with good aptitude often couldn't condense a second Treasure Skill after creating one.
This was due to conflicts between powers.
In Qin Jin's mind.
If he indeed needed to condense a Treasure Skill, then... why not choose the strongest one?
He had ample time and higher ambitions.
The energy for condensing Treasure Skills scattered and spread throughout his body, silently, while ice crystals formed on the surface of his physique, covering his entire body, making him appear like an ice sculpture from afar.
Time passed.
The deep blue blood in the pot gradually turned transparent.
The energy within was absorbed.
At a certain moment.
The ice crystals enveloping Qin Jin shattered with intense vibration, scattering everywhere under the light, reflecting brilliant glows.
Qin Jin opened his eyes.
Coldness filled the air all around.
He extended his right hand, palm facing upwards, and while recalling in his mind, he manipulated the Life Energy with Spiritual Power in a very special manner.
Life Energy left his palm without dispersing.
Silently.
In his palm, a half-hand sized, crystal clear Ice Lotus formed, composed of energy.
