Chapter 103: Display Supernatural Ability Again
... valley.
"Where is this?" Ceng Yue looked at the unfamiliar environment around her, her delicate eyebrows furrowed.
Ji Chen looked around; the valley was filled with birds singing and flowers blooming, the air fresh, forming a sharp contrast with the dim space they had fought in before.
"Looks like a paradise; is this a free trip for rewarding us?" Ji Chen couldn't help but mutter.
This sudden tranquility made them somewhat unaccustomed.
Just now they were struggling on the edge of life and death, but now they were in such a comfortable environment; this contrast made them feel a trace of unreality.
"Careful!" Ceng Yue suddenly whispered, pulling Ji Chen behind her.
Almost at the same time, a powerful Supernatural Ability fluctuation came from afar, like a surging tide, instantly sweeping across the entire valley.
"Holy shit, what's going on?" Ji Chen felt his body as if pressed by a massive mountain, making it difficult even to breathe.
This Supernatural Ability fluctuation contained powerful pressure, constantly impacting their defenses.
The surrounding flowers, grass, and trees began to shake violently, and birds flew toward the sky in terror.
"This energy..." Ceng Yue's face was grave, a trace of wariness flashing in her eyes. "Stronger than any enemy we've encountered before!"
Ji Chen also felt the terror of this energy. He felt his body as if it were about to be torn apart, the Supernatural Ability within his body operating crazily, attempting to resist this powerful pressure.
"This feeling, are we about to undergo a tribulation?" Ji Chen smiled bitterly.
However, the Supernatural Ability within his body seemed to be stimulated by something, beginning to crazily absorb this external energy.
"Wait, I feel..." Ji Chen was suddenly stunned. He discovered that his body was undergoing changes; this powerful pressure not only didn't harm him, but was constantly strengthening his power.
"Did you use your Golden Finger again?" Ceng Yue noticed Ji Chen's change.
"Seems so." Ji Chen felt the power constantly surging within his body, a trace of excitement appearing on his face. "This time, it seems like... I'm leveling up!"
The aura on his body began to soar, like a volcano about to erupt, and the surrounding space began to twist.
"Go!" Ceng Yue made a prompt decision, pulling Ji Chen and running toward the depths of the valley.
Her intuition told her that this powerful Supernatural Ability fluctuation was not accidental; in the depths of the valley, some secret must be hidden.
"High energy warning ahead!" Ji Chen shouted, gripping Ceng Yue's hand tightly.
The two galloped in the valley, and a disagreement occurred over whether to continue deeper.
"The Supernatural Ability fluctuation ahead is too strong; we'd better retreat first and find other opportunities to come back." Ceng Yue stopped and said with a grave expression.
Ji Chen had no intention of stopping. He clenched his fists, determination flashing in his eyes: "No, this opportunity is too rare. I can feel that this Supernatural Ability fluctuation has a special attraction for me; it will definitely allow me to go a step further."
Ceng Yue furrowed her brows tightly, clearly considering Ji Chen's suggestion.
A tense atmosphere filled the air between the two, and the peaceful environment around them seemed to sense their contradiction, making even the air feel stagnant.
"We've been through so much; we can't retreat at the most critical moment." Ji Chen emphasized again, his tone carrying unquestionable firmness.
Ceng Yue hesitated for a moment, finally nodding: "Alright, but you must be careful. I'll follow by your side, and if I find anything wrong, we'll retreat immediately."
Ji Chen revealed a gratified smile, gripping Ceng Yue's hand tightly: "Don't worry, with you here, I'm more at ease."
The two continued to run forward, and the Supernatural Ability fluctuation in the valley grew increasingly intense, as if calling to them.
Faint light began to radiate from Ji Chen's body, and the operation speed of his Supernatural Ability was also accelerating.
Whenever he encountered some scattered Supernatural Ability energy, he would absorb it rapidly, replenishing his strength.
"This energy is getting stronger; we're almost there." Ji Chen said excitedly, his face filled with confidence and fighting spirit.
Ceng Yue followed closely, observing her surroundings vigilantly, her gaze as sharp as an eagle's.
Although there was some unease in her heart, seeing Ji Chen so firm, she also gradually let go of some of her worries.
The scene ahead gradually became clear, and a massive shadow appeared faintly in the depths of the valley, seemingly a maze constructed by Supernatural Ability.
Ji Chen's brow arched slightly, a trace of excitement flashing in his eyes: "Is this our new challenge?"
He took a deep breath.
"Let's go, let's go in together!" Ji Chen said firmly, taking a step, walking forward without hesitation.
Ji Chen and Ceng Yue stepped into the maze side by side.
An ancient and mysterious aura rushed toward them; the walls of the maze flickered with strange light, pulsing like breathing.
"Holy shit, this maze has some stuff!" Ji Chen exclaimed. This wasn't ordinary brick and cement, but purely condensed Supernatural Ability.
The interior of the maze was intricate and complex, every passage filled with unknown dangers.
"Whoosh!" A sharp ice spike shot out from the dark, heading straight for Ji Chen's face.
"Small trick!" Ji Chen sneered, dodging to the side. The ice spike flew past his cheek, leaving a deep hole in the wall.
"666, reaction speed is okay!" The system's voice sounded at the right time, and simultaneously, Ji Chen felt his experience points rise again.
"Careful!" Ceng Yue reminded, simultaneously condensing an energy barrier in her hand, blocking a fire attack that struck from the other side.
"This maze is interesting." Ceng Yue's mouth curled slightly, excitement flashing in her eyes.
The two cooperated tacitly, weaving through the maze, every narrow escape making their cooperation even more tacit.
"This wave of operation is simply heaven-defying!" Ji Chen boasted after dodging a series of falling rock attacks.
Ceng Yue looked at Ji Chen's ease in the maze. She held Ji Chen's hand tightly, feeling the temperature of his palm, and a warm current surged in her heart.
"It's good to have you here." Ceng Yue said softly.
Ji Chen gripped Ceng Yue's hand back, giving her a firm look: "Don't worry, I will definitely protect you."
Deep in the maze, the Supernatural Ability fluctuation permeating the air grew increasingly intense.
"Feels like we're almost there." Ji Chen said, simultaneously accelerating his pace.
Finally, they arrived at the center of the maze.
A ball emitting dazzling light floated in the air, surrounded by complex energy patterns; it was this ball that emitted the energy fluctuation.
"Is this the Supernatural Ability Core?" Ji Chen looked at the ball before him.
He extended his hand, wanting to touch this core containing massive energy.
However, just as his fingertip was about to touch the core, the surrounding space suddenly twisted, and countless energy barriers appeared out of thin air, trapping him and Ceng Yue within.
"What's going on?!" Ji Chen exclaimed.
The energy on the barrier constantly flickered, as if it were about to erupt the next second...
"Looks like we're in trouble." Ceng Yue's expression was grave, condensing energy in her hand, ready for battle. ===== CHAPTER 104 =====
