"Hehe, that bastard Ge Pu, meeting me can only be considered his bad luck."

Qin Chen sneered, unhurriedly placing his hands on the array pattern and quickly tapping several times. With a buzzing sound, an invisible force spread, and those crimson silk threads instantly vanished without a trace.

"This array is so crude, I might actually believe it was set up by the ancestors of the Ge family."

Qin Chen pushed forward with force, immediately expanding the white light barrier and stepping inside.

The verification array on the white light barrier was clearly not from ancient times, but rather inscribed in the last few hundred years. It must have been set up by the ancestors of the Ge family.

Upon entering the light barrier, Qin Chen focused his gaze and found himself in a place resembling an altar. Surrounding the altar were six pieces of凝神玉 (Nourishing Spirit Jade) floating, and at the center of the altar was a black dragon-shaped gem.

This dragon-shaped gem was quite extraordinary, as if it possessed life, continuously swirling. Within its flow was a flicker of vitality.

"Could this be the legendary Dragon Soul Jade?!"

Qin Chen exclaimed in surprise.

The Dragon Soul Jade was a legend from ancient times. It was said to originate from the lairs of the dragon clan, constantly soaked in the essence and blood of true dragons, absorbing their souls to form a type of treasure.

This kind of treasure could nourish a person's soul. Once refined, it could allow a martial artist's soul power to reach an unprecedented realm, even achieving凝神化形 (Condensing Spirit into Form).

One must know that a martial artist in the early stages could only cultivate spiritual power, and only after reaching the seventh level would they begin to nourish their soul power.

And to achieve凝神化形, even a 武帝 (Martial God) could not do it; only in the legendary圣境 (Holy Realm) could this possibly be achieved.

However, it was said that the Dragon Soul Jade could allow one to accomplish this in advance; it was truly abnormal.

This rumor had circulated in the Martial Domain for countless years, yet no one had ever truly obtained the Dragon Soul Jade. Now, this gem before him emitted a soul aura reminiscent of a true dragon, making Qin Chen's soul feel incredibly comfortable, indeed very similar to the legendary Dragon Soul Jade.

Thinking of this, Qin Chen couldn't help but feel his mouth dry, and his palms began to sweat.

To surpass his past life, to defeat Shangguan Xi'er and Feng Shaoyu, simply relying on cultivation was not enough; he needed some opportunities. If this dragon-shaped gem truly was the Dragon Soul Jade, then I would have already succeeded halfway in my quest to surpass my past life.

Qin Chen felt excited just thinking about it. Soul power was extremely important to a powerful warrior. Once the soul underwent transformation, whether it was in cultivation or in alchemy and weapon forging, he could surpass his past life.

In the midst of his shock,

Whoosh!

Sensing a surge of energy, a floating piece of凝神玉 (Nourishing Spirit Jade) rushed over and landed in Qin Chen's hand.

A piece of information also surged into Qin Chen's mind.

Sure enough, this mysterious structure was not established by the ancestors of the Ge family.

Several hundred years ago, the Ge family had a very powerful expert who possessed a natural jade body. This kind of physique allowed him to sense and identify jade far beyond ordinary people.

Using this physique, this ancestor of the Ge family traveled across mountains and rivers, engaging in the jade business, establishing a large Ge family.

At the peak of the Ge family's power, they had a remarkable reputation across the five countries of the northwest, claiming to be the top family among the five nations.

Later, this ancestor discovered this magical jade stone structure during an adventure in the Holy Luo Secret Realm, and at the same time discovered this dragon-shaped gem.

He wanted to seize this gem but found an ancient restriction surrounding the altar. No matter how hard he tried, he could not break these restrictions.
