Chapter 112: Overcoming Strong Enemies with Force

Ji Chen took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "No matter what it is, we can face it together!" Ceng Yue nodded, and the two of them clenched their fists, highlighting their firm will to fight.

Suddenly, an invisible, immense force struck like a violent storm. Ji Chen and Ceng Yue both stumbled backward, and deep cracks split the ground beneath their feet, with debris scattering everywhere.

A powerful shockwave echoed through the air, as if the entire space were about to be shattered.

Ji Chen struggled to steady himself.

"Ceng Yue, we cannot retreat!" Ji Chen's voice was firm and powerful, as if he wanted to transmit this firmness to Ceng Yue beside him.

Ceng Yue nodded; although her expression remained cold and indifferent, the flames of battle burned in her eyes.

She waved her hands, and the surrounding air began to fluctuate, forming sharp wind blades that launched a counterattack against that unknown force.

However, that force seemed to have a consciousness of its own; it easily dodged the wind blades and struck again.

This time, it transformed into a black lightning bolt, heading straight for Ji Chen and Ceng Yue.

The two felt immense pressure, solemn expressions appeared on their faces, and their bodies involuntarily tensed up.

"Come on, let me see your limit!" Ji Chen roared, thrusting his hands forward violently. A powerful energy wave erupted from his palms, colliding head-on with the dark force.

The airflow in the air distorted instantly, and the collision of the two forces formed a massive energy vortex in the sky.

Ceng Yue followed closely behind. She brought her hands together, and a huge wind vortex formed in front of her, swallowing that dark force bit by bit.

However, this force seemed infinite, constantly surging from all directions, leaving the two of them almost unable to breathe.

Ji Chen felt the energy within him depleting rapidly, but he felt no fear; instead, his inner conviction grew firmer: "Ceng Yue, we cannot retreat. We must find its weakness!"

Ceng Yue nodded.

Yet, the attacks of that unknown force seemed unpredictable, catching them off guard every single time.

A flash of urgency crossed Ji Chen's brow as he secretly pondered a countermeasure.

"Where exactly is the pattern of this force's attacks?" Ji Chen muttered to himself. His brain raced, attempting to find a trace of a pattern amidst the chaotic attacks.

However, this force was like a mischievous ghost, its every attack shifting and unpredictable, impossible to grasp.

One moment it was as violent as a storm, the next as gentle as a trickling stream, with no fixed routine at all.

"Damn it!" Ji Chen couldn't help but curse under his breath, a fine layer of sweat seeping onto his forehead.

The surrounding energy fluctuations also became disordered and chaotic, as if a group of mischievous sprites were reveling wantonly, making him feel dizzy and disoriented.

This feeling was like playing a high-difficulty mini-game of "If you're a man, hold on for 20 seconds," stimulating yet maddening.

Just as he was about to give up, a flash of inspiration struck, and he remembered the Inheritance Power he had just acquired.

This power lay dormant within him like a sleeping giant dragon, waiting for the moment to be awakened.

"All or nothing!" Ji Chen gritted his teeth and mobilized the Inheritance Power. A powerful surge of energy instantly flooded his entire body, as if injecting him with a shot of adrenaline.

He felt filled with power, as if he had turned on an infinite-firepower cheat, his combat strength off the charts!

"Heh, little thing, you think I can't handle you?" A confident smile appeared at the corner of Ji Chen's mouth. The surrounding energy seemed infected by him, beginning to swirl around him and forming a massive energy vortex, making him look like a god descended to earth, majestic and awe-inspiring.

This Inheritance Power was indeed extraordinary, managing to briefly withstand the attacks of the unknown force.

Ji Chen felt a surge of joy and was just about to press his advantage when suddenly...

"Watch out!" Ceng Yue exclaimed.

That unknown force seemed provoked by Ji Chen, letting out a deafening roar. The attack came again, even more violent than before, sweeping in like a monstrous wave.

The surrounding mountain rocks were instantly pulverized into dust by this force. Bystanders would have broken into a cold sweat for them; this was truly a case of gods fighting and mortals suffering!

"Holy crap, what is this thing? So fierce!" Ji Chen couldn't help but swear, pulling Ceng Yue aside to dodge.

Even though the Inheritance Power was awesome, it couldn't handle such life-risking consumption!

He felt as if he were playing an extreme dodging game, where the slightest carelessness would lead to instant death.

Ceng Yue's eyes narrowed, her figure drifting like a ghost, moving freely through the violent energy turbulence.

She was like a cold assassin dancing on the edge of a blade, every dodge perfectly timed, breathtaking to behold.

"Show-off, wifey!" Ji Chen couldn't help but praise.

The two coordinated perfectly, moving like flowing water, searching for an opportunity to counterattack in the gaps of the onslaught.

Suddenly, Ceng Yue made an unexpected move.

Disregarding the danger, she actively charged toward the core of that force!

"Damn it, what are you doing!" Ji Chen was startled; this girl was way too reckless!

The enemy's core was definitely the most dangerous place; this was practically throwing her life away!

Even that unknown force seemed to pause for a moment, not expecting this cold and taciturn woman to be so bold!

The surrounding atmosphere froze instantly, as if time itself had stopped flowing.

"Trust me!" Ceng Yue's voice was cold and firm, without a hint of hesitation.

Ji Chen gritted his teeth; he knew Ceng Yue wouldn't take risks without reason.

He took a deep breath, pushing the energy within him to the limit, and turned into a streak of light, following closely behind Ceng Yue.

The two combined their strength in one strike, hitting the core of that force dead on!

"Boom!"

A loud noise shook the heavens and the earth.

That force let out a shrill scream and began to slowly retreat.

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue stood where they were, breathing heavily.

Their clothes were soaked with sweat, but victorious smiles appeared on their faces.

However, they knew this was only a temporary victory.

That force had not been completely destroyed; it had only retreated for the time being.

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue looked at each other.

"It's not over yet..." Ji Chen said in a low voice.

Suddenly, an even more powerful aura came from afar... ===== CHAPTER 113 =====
