Qin Chen was completely stunned. The countless auras around him contained terrifying pressure, as if they could easily crush him.
What shocked him even more was that these auras were even more formidable than the many Martial Gods he had encountered in his past life.
It felt as if each aura represented a supreme Nineth Level Martial God.
A large number of auras surged wildly, dissipating in an instant, ultimately leaving behind a pure power that rapidly spread away.
Feeling this dissipating spiritual power, Qin Chen's soul experienced an overwhelming hunger, as if he would do anything to devour this power.
"This is... pure soul power?"
Qin Chen's face showed horror as he instinctively unleashed his soul power, beginning to absorb this force.
Boom!
In an instant, Qin Chen felt as if his mind had exploded. His Sea of Souls trembled wildly, increasing at an astonishing speed.
This power appeared quickly and dispersed just as fast. When all the power had dissipated, the Sea of Souls in Qin Chen's mind had increased several times compared to before.
Within the pitch-black Sea of Souls, a deep pool appeared, slowly rotating, deep and cold. The originally void Sea of Souls seemed to solidify into something tangible.
"My soul power has actually reached the Breaking Void realm?"
Qin Chen was shocked.
Soul power is divided into three realms: Void, Gathering Soul and Forming, and Breaking Void.
Normal martial artists only possess soul power in the Void realm and cannot sense their own existence, but some powerful individuals, like Bloodline Masters, can condense their souls and elevate their souls to the Gathering Soul and Forming level.
Previously, Qin Chen was at the Gathering Soul and Forming level, where soul power takes on a certain void form, capable of attacking and manifesting.
Above Gathering Soul and Forming is Breaking Void.
Breaking Void means that soul power has become sufficiently strong, transitioning from a void state to a tangible state, almost resembling a visible power.
At that level, soul power can even form physical attacks.
Generally speaking, only Nineth Level Martial God experts, particularly the elite among them, can cultivate their soul power to the Breaking Void realm.
Of course, some Bloodline Masters and Alchemists can achieve this earlier, especially if they practice soul secret techniques, they may do so even faster.
However, even in his past life, Qin Chen only reached the Breaking Void realm when he broke through to the peak of the eighth stage.
In this life, he was only at the peak of the mid-seventh stage, yet his soul power had already reached the Breaking Void realm. How could he not be astonished?
"Boom!"
While Qin Chen was still in shock, the skeletal giant, having lost the support of the vengeful spirit energy, collapsed instantly, turning into a pile of dry bones.
As he retracted the mysterious rusty sword, Qin Chen was just about to swoop down when, at the moment his hand grasped the mysterious rusty sword, a chilling aura suddenly surged from it.
In that instant, Qin Chen seemed to see that mysterious place once again.
It was a pitch-black space, dark and cold, like a hellish realm that sent shivers down his spine.
In the darkness, blood flowed everywhere, and corpses were piled high, a scene of utter horror.
And in the deepest part of the pile of corpses, a sinister black shadow, wrapped in countless rivers of blood, sensed Qin Chen's probing and let out an angry roar.
"You brat, quickly let this seat out, let me out!"
The black shadow roared, releasing terrifying killing intent, shaking the entire space violently.
"Puff!"
In the outside world, Qin Chen suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, awakening fully. The originally scorching mysterious rusty sword gradually cooled, returning to its ancient appearance.
Qin Chen's eyes were still somewhat dazed.
He had unexpectedly seen that scene again. The first time he practiced the Sword-Control Technique and inscribed the soul imprint on the mysterious rusty sword, he had experienced that strange space.
