Chapter 129: Mysterious Duel

Golden flames wrapped around Ji Chen's fist, which slammed into the Mysterious Person like a falling meteorite.

The Mysterious Person sneered, their figure instantly vanishing from the spot.

The next second, they appeared behind Ji Chen, a ball of black energy condensed in their hand, which they slammed toward Ji Chen's back.

"Tricks of a minor skill!" Ji Chen didn't even look back, striking out with a palm.

The golden flames collided with the black energy ball, producing a deafening explosion.

The shockwave spread, causing surrounding buildings to collapse like paper, and countless cracks appeared on the ground.

"Interesting." The Mysterious Person quickly formed seals with both hands, chanting under their breath. The surrounding space began to distort, and a powerful suction pulled Ji Chen toward them.

Ji Chen felt his body being sucked toward the Mysterious Person uncontrollably. He hurriedly steadied himself, channeling his Supernatural Ability to resist the suction.

But the Mysterious Person's power was truly too strong; he felt as if he had been grabbed by a giant invisible hand, unable to break free.

"Just surrender obediently!" The Mysterious Person grinned hideously, condensing another ball of black energy in their hand, preparing to deliver a fatal blow to Ji Chen.

Just then, Ji Chen suddenly felt the golden flame within him surge again, an even more powerful force filling his entire body.

He opened his eyes wide, golden light flickering within them like two burning suns.

"Break for me!" Ji Chen roared, the golden flames all over his body erupting violently, forming a massive golden pillar of light that shot into the sky.

This powerful force instantly shattered the Mysterious Person's suction, and the distorted space returned to normal.

The Mysterious Person was stunned by this sudden turn of events, looking at Ji Chen in disbelief.

"This... how is this possible..." they muttered to themselves.

Ji Chen ignored their surprise. He flashed forward, instantly arriving before the Mysterious Person, his fist wrapped in golden flames, slamming into them once more.

"Boom!"

Another loud noise, and the Mysterious Person was sent flying by Ji Chen's punch, crashing heavily to the ground and spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"You... who exactly are you..." The Mysterious Person struggled to stand up.

Ji Chen did not answer them, walking toward the Mysterious Person step by step, cold light flickering in his eyes.

"Tell me, who is your mastermind?"

Ji Chen's lips curled into a cold sneer. He was no brute who only knew how to fight head-on; that last wave was just a test, and he had long since figured out the Mysterious Person's weakness.

He flickered, vanishing from the spot like a ghost, and the next second, he appeared at the Mysterious Person's side.

"Bang!"

A heavy punch, wrapped in golden flames, slammed into the Mysterious Person's waist.

The Mysterious Person was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, smashing a deep pit into the ground.

They struggled to stand up, only to find they couldn't muster any strength; that last strike seemed to have shattered all the bones in their body.

"Is that it?" Ji Chen chuckled, clenching his fists, the golden flames all over his body surging again. Like a god of war bathed in fire, his presence was imposing.

Every step he took forward, the ground trembled slightly, as if bearing immense pressure.

"No way, no way, you dare to come out and cause trouble with just this much strength?" The onlookers began to jeer. They had never seen such a powerful Ability User, and Ji Chen's strength made their blood boil.

The Mysterious Person was filled with fear, having never encountered such a powerful opponent.

They wanted to run, but found their body wouldn't listen to them.

They could only watch helplessly as Ji Chen approached step by step, their heart filled with despair.

Ji Chen, of course, would not give them a chance to catch their breath. The newly obtained power surged out like a broken dam. He roared, and the golden flames all over his body condensed into a massive pillar of energy, which he blasted toward the Mysterious Person.

Wherever this energy pillar passed, the air was torn apart, emitting a piercing explosion.

The Mysterious Person watched the approaching energy pillar in despair. They wanted to dodge, but found themselves completely locked by this powerful force, unable to move at all.

"No... no..." Their screams were completely drowned out by the roar of the energy pillar.

The dust settled, and the Mysterious Person had vanished, leaving only a massive deep pit.

Ji Chen withdrew his power, and the golden flames on his body slowly dissipated.

He looked around, and the surrounding Ability Users erupted in deafening cheers. They looked at him with worshipful eyes, as if looking at a true hero.

Ji Chen ignored the surrounding cheers, walking step by step toward Ceng Yue, who was also looking at him with burning eyes, love and worship intertwined in her gaze, making it hard to look away.

Ceng Yue stared fixedly at Ji Chen, her beautiful eyes shimmering, as if stars had fallen into them.

She knew that this man would definitely win.

That trust burned in her heart like a flame, making her entire being radiate a gentle yet firm glow.

Her lips curled slightly, revealing a faint smile—that was her unique gentleness, blooming only for Ji Chen.

The Mysterious Person lay on the ground like a pile of mud, blood constantly gushing from their mouth—a look as disheveled as could be.

Ji Chen stood proudly, the golden light around him not yet dissipated, like a god of war descended to the human world, radiating endless light.

He had already become a well-deserved legend in the Urban Ability World.

"My god, too strong!"

"This is a real man! I'm kneeling!"

"From now on, I am Brother Chen's number one lackey!"

The surrounding Ability Users knelt to the ground one after another, calling out. At this moment, Ji Chen had completely become their faith.

The loud sounds of kneeling and cheering rose and fell, pushing the entire atmosphere to a climax.

Just as Ji Chen was enjoying this king-like treatment, the sky suddenly cracked open, and an eerie light poured down from it.

That light presented a strange purple color, like an abyss, radiating an unsettling aura.

Ji Chen frowned slightly, vaguely feeling that some unknown secret seemed to be hidden within this light.

Before he could think much, the light in the sky gradually condensed into a massive vortex, the center of which seemed to connect to another world, radiating heart-palpitating fluctuations.

"Brother Chen, be careful! This light is not right!"

"Yeah, Brother Chen, we should leave here first!"

The surrounding Ability Users advised him one after another, feeling a strong sense of crisis from that light.

Ji Chen looked at the anomaly in the sky, his eyes firm, his lips curling slightly into a meaningful smile. He ignored the advice of the surrounding Ability Users and instead took a step forward. ===== CHAPTER 130 =====
