Eye of the Spirit Vein

Chu Ge transmigrates into the body of an apprentice jade carver, and the game starts in hell mode: his master is dead, the shop is in ruins, local thugs are kicking down the door to collect debts, and the only thing left behind—the "scrap"—is treated as garbage by everyone. But no one knows that inside that scrap lies a beating heart. The spirit-energy scanning system activates, and nine spirit patterns first appear. Others rely on eyesight to gamble on stones; he relies on spirit-energy perception. When others cut a loss and jump off a building, he swallows the spirit-energy cores inside raw stones one by one, lighting up perception, resonance, inscription, concealment, grafting, thunder patterns... When the nine patterns gather, the gate of the spirit vein can open. But trouble comes faster than opportunity. Fang Henian, the external affairs deacon of the Spirit Energy Chamber of Commerce, has chased him for twenty years—from his master's generation to his own. What he wants is not the scrap, but the key. The Shen family's old mansion, the southern market, the western node passage—pursuit all the way, breaking the situation all the way. Debts of favor must be repaid, the cause of his master's death must be investigated, and the three main fragments must be gathered before the chamber of commerce. Everyone says it is scrap. Only Chu Ge knows that inside it, there is a heartbeat. Stones do not lie. People do. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: Eye of the Spirit Vein — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
