The python sheds and transforms into a flood dragon, and the flood dragon transforms into a dragon.
In mythical legends, a flood dragon is a lower-tier creature compared to a dragon but can be regarded as a dragon species, far superior to ordinary exotic beasts, extraordinary indeed.
The scene continues.
The four of them were already on the run, and upon witnessing such a terrifying scene, naturally did not dare to get close, wanting to escape quickly.
In the picture, only the scenes they happened to witness during their escape remained.
Combining the memories of the four, this battle reappeared and was summarized in Qin Jin's mind.
At the start of the battle, the horse-headed god took the upper hand.
In the clash, the scales of the three-headed exotic python shattered, and flesh fell off as it was pursued.
The last frame of the scattered images.
The divine light reflected in the eyes of the horse-headed god, the world became bright, under the bombardment of divine light, the colossal body of the three-headed exotic python fell with a crash, lifeless.
This three-headed exotic python was slain by the mountain god.
Qin Jin pondered in his heart.
Inside the sacrificial spirit hall, it became quiet.
In his contemplation, Qin Jin's voice echoed in everyone's mind.
"How long ago did you witness this battle?"
He did not avoid the other two. Hearing the question, the eyes of Qi Chuan and Xia Rock Tiger also turned towards those four people.
The four clansmen were somewhat fearful, looking at each other, one of them swallowed his saliva, gathered some courage, and said, "Reporting to Lord Sacrificial Spirit, it was about eight or nine days ago."
Even though he wasn't communicating mentally, with thoughts flashing through his mind, Qin Jin already understood.
And…
During this period, Qin Jin's own spiritual growth, with keen mind and the ability to perceive thoughts, had given him a basic grasp of the Fire Sacrifice Tribe's language.
"Eight or nine days."
Qin Jin silently recited and then voiced his next question.
"Have the four of you ever seen that ancient relic species that attacked the tribe?"
"Ancient relic species, what is that?"
"We weren't in the tribe at the time."
The feelings that flashed in their minds were captured by Qin Jin.
The tribesman who spoke earlier hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Are you referring to the fierce beast that invaded the tribe?"
"We haven't seen it. We weren't in the tribe at the time and only found out about the tribe being attacked on our way back."
"Later, we fled with others, gradually scattered, until we reached here."
In the cockpit, a look of understanding flashed in Qin Jin's eyes.
He already had a hypothesis in his heart.
"Qi Chuan."
"Is this the ancient relic species that broke through the Fire Sacrifice Tribe?"
As the voice echoed in everyone's mind, Qin Jin used wish power to manifest it in Qi Chuan's mind, and the ice-white three-headed exotic python appeared in his heart.
At the moment the three-headed exotic python appeared in his heart, the normally calm elder couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"It's it..."
"It defeated the Stone Saint."
Qi Chuan's voice trembled slightly, answering with a pained expression.
Qin Jin confirmed his guess.
The scene dissipated in Qi Chuan's mind.
In the Great Wilderness, fierce beasts roamed, but those reaching the level of the three-headed exotic python were rare. Such high-level creatures, if they ravaged the Great Wilderness, could lead to the destruction of countless human tribes.
Therefore…
Upon seeing it in the reenacted scene, Qin Jin immediately thought of the ancient relic species from the deep wilderness that Qi Chuan mentioned, which destroyed the tribe.
Now, his inference seemed correct.
"Did the horse-headed god encounter the three-headed exotic python by chance, or did it come for it?"
"Judging by the timeline, when I saw the horse-headed god, it was already on its way back."
"Deep in the Great Wilderness…"
Thoughts flickered in his mind.
In front.
Qi Chuan's old voice trembled slightly, unable to resist asking, "Lord Sacrificial Spirit, that ancient relic species…"
"It's dead."
Qin Jin's words were succinct.
At the moment of confirmation, Qi Chuan's fist clenched fiercely and then slowly relaxed.
"Go inform the other tribesmen."
Upon hearing this, Qi Chuan uncharacteristically remained silent, just bowing deeply before turning and leaving.
Even in his old age, as he turned, his hunched back seemed to straighten a bit.
Qin Jin watched his back.
When they first met, it was Qi Chuan who led the tribe in reciting the secret text, forging a connection with Qin Jin, making him the sacrificial spirit of the Fire Sacrifice Tribe.
This elder was responsible for matters related to the sacrificial spirit in his previous tribe.
The unseen "Stone Saint" sheltered the Fire Sacrifice Tribe for many years, yet met a demise of dismemberment. The impact on the Fire Sacrifice Tribe people was undoubtedly immense.
Nearby.
Xia Rock Tiger, unlike Qi Chuan, did not witness the exotic python in his mind. But listening to the exchange, he realized, albeit silently. Yet Qin Jin could clearly sense his vigorous energy fluctuation, revealing inner unrest.
"Xia Rock Tiger."
Qin Jin's voice sounded in his heart.
"Lord Sacrificial Spirit."
Xia Rock Tiger exhaled deeply, responding with cupped hands.
"You have the talent for condensing treasure skills, you have a decent aptitude, and it won't be long before you can make a breakthrough and step into new life."
"Today, I will teach you another technique."
"A technique you can only begin to cultivate once you enter the Newborn Realm."
"Visualization Technique."
Through the wish power in his heart, everything about the Visualization Technique was taught to Xia Rock Tiger and imprinted in his mind.
In the Great Wilderness, fierce beasts roam. When Xia Rock Tiger breaks through to the Newborn Realm, he can seek fierce beasts for visualization seals.
Balancing physical and spiritual cultivation is the way to raise the upper limits for the Fire Sacrifice Tribe people.
The Deep Driller is surrounded by wish power, so even if their spiritual power rises in the future, they will remain unaware of Qin Jin's existence.
After this session of imparting knowledge.
Under Qin Jin's command, Xia Rock Tiger left the sacrificial spirit hall.
Inside the hall.
Only the Deep Driller sitting on the giant chair and four ordinary tribesmen remained.
They kept their heads slightly lowered, not daring to directly look at the Deep Driller, their thoughts tense, not understanding why the esteemed Lord Sacrificial Spirit had kept them behind.
Qin Jin's gaze scrutinized them, his commanding voice echoing in their minds.
"Next, recall the route you traveled to get here."
"And the location of that battle."
...
Inside the sacrificial spirit hall, only the Deep Driller on the "throne" remained.
Qin Jin slightly closed his eyes, spiritual power fluctuating, summarizing the route information gathered from their minds, checking for gaps and overlaps, eventually assembling a roughly complete route.
This route starts from the Fire Sacrifice Tribe.
The destination is exactly the location of that great battle.
He had seen the returning horse-headed god.
The being was travelling back under the night sky, with no trace of the three-headed exotic python around.
Whether it violently devoured it or used divine methods to carry it away, the battlefield of such extraordinary creatures would certainly be considered a treasure trove. Thorough exploration would surely yield rewards.
If the corpse of the three-headed exotic python were still there, its value would be immeasurable.
His initial intention in coming to the Great Wilderness was exploration and gain, and now this route served as a treasure map; surely he would not overlook it.
"Set out immediately. Maintaining the mining machine's Spiritual Index requirement is low; with my current spiritual power, I can multitask, traveling and cultivating simultaneously, without delaying anything."
"Let's go see what was left at the site of that battle."
Having made his decision, the Deep Driller rose from the giant chair.
Qin Jin summoned Qi Chuan through his thoughts, gave some instructions, and then the Deep Driller left the Fire Sacrifice Tribe.
…
Mining Star, Xinyang District.
Starship landing site.
Yan Gaoyuan led at the front, followed by several others, both men and women, quietly waiting.
The Mining Star was remote, and this starship landing site was usually deserted, becoming lively only during the annual mineral trading period.
The group waited quietly.
Soon enough.
A large starship from beyond the heavens landed here.
