Chapter 132: Uncovering the Truth

Ji Chen took a deep breath, eyes closed tight, the Supernatural Ability within him surging out like a volcanic eruption, striking the invisible barrier that imprisoned everyone.

"Break for me!" He roared, like thunder on flat ground, making the eardrums of the surrounding Ability Users buzz.

The powerful Supernatural Ability energy transformed into a dazzling pillar of light, shooting straight into the sky, slamming fiercely into the black vortex.

"Wow, amazing!" a black-clad man couldn't help but exclaim; this power was simply heaven-defying!

The barrier trembled violently, emitting an unbearable "creaking" sound, just like an old computer's CPU being overclocked.

Veins bulged on Ji Chen's forehead, beads of sweat the size of beans sliding down his chiseled cheeks, but he didn't dare to relax in the slightest, continuing to increase his Supernatural Ability output.

The surrounding air seemed to have frozen, the tense atmosphere making everyone unable to breathe, everyone's gaze focused on Ji Chen, expecting a miracle to happen.

"Crack!" With a crisp sound, a crack appeared on the barrier, followed by the crack rapidly spreading like a spiderweb.

"It's done!" Ji Chen felt a joy in his heart, increasing his force, and finally, with a loud "boom," the barrier shattered completely, transforming into specks of starlight and dissipating in the air.

"Amazing! Brother Chen is mighty!" The black-clad men cheered and jumped, as excited as if they were setting off firecrackers for the New Year.

Ji Chen let out a long breath, not bothering to wipe the sweat from his forehead, immediately sensing the source of that strange light.

Following the light, he arrived inside an ancient building in the center of the city.

Pushing open the heavy stone gate, an ancient and mysterious aura rushed to meet him. He saw that in the center of the hall, a crystal emitting dazzling light was floating.

This was the source of that strange light, an ancient Ability Treasure!

"Wow, I'm rich!" Ji Chen's eyes shone, as if he saw countless rare items beckoning to him.

The treasure radiated an alluring light, reflecting his excited and thrilled face.

He couldn't wait to reach out his hand, wanting to touch this legendary treasure.

"Don't move!" A cold voice suddenly sounded, piercing the silence of the hall like a cold blade.

A guy dressed in black robes, wearing an eerie mask on his face, walked slowly out from the shadows of the hall, followed by a group of Ability Users in the same attire.

The appearance of this group was like pouring a ladle of cold water into a boiling pot, instantly making the noisy hall quiet down.

"This item belongs to our 'Shadow Society'!" The Masked Man's voice was low and hoarse, as if it came from the depths of hell, making people shudder.

Ji Chen raised an eyebrow, his lips curling into a hint of disdain. He crossed his arms, looking at them like clowns: "Yo, where did these crooked melons and cracked dates come from? Trying to pull a scam here? Is your name written on the treasure?"

"Hmph, seeking death!" A hot-tempered black-robed person didn't say a word, rushing directly toward Ji Chen.

They condensed a ball of black energy in their hand, carrying a suffocating sense of pressure, heading straight for Ji Chen's face.

"Well come!" Ji Chen didn't even dodge, striking out with a punch, his fist wrapped in dazzling light, colliding with that black energy ball.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the shockwave produced by the energy collision shook the entire hall, as if an earthquake had occurred.

That black energy ball, under Ji Chen's fist, was like paper, instantly collapsing.

Ji Chen's power made everyone present feel shocked.

Where is this an Elementary Ability User?

This is clearly a human-shaped Gundam!

"Damn, Brother Chen, did you use cheats?" The black-clad men couldn't help but exclaim, feeling as if they were watching a hot-blooded anime, the protagonist's halo simply too dazzling.

"I said, you guys are not good enough." Ji Chen shrugged, speaking lightly like a big shot who had finished a game.

"All together!" Seeing the situation was not good, the Masked Man roared, and the remaining black-robed people also attacked one after another, all kinds of strange Supernatural Abilities attacking Ji Chen together, as if they wanted to completely drown him.

"Is that it?" Ji Chen sneered, the light around his body becoming even more dazzling, like a rising sun.

He waved his hands, and countless light blades appeared out of thin air, like sickles harvesting life, crushing all those attacks, and then shooting toward the black-robed people like a storm.

The black-robed people were caught off guard, one after another flying backward like kites with broken strings, smashing into the wall and emitting muffled sounds.

"Too weak, too weak." Ji Chen shook his head, looking disappointed. "You guys only have this much ability, and still want to grab the treasure?"

He stood in the center of the hall, like a god of war, his entire body radiating an awe-inspiring aura.

His strength made all the Ability Users present feel shocked; those Ability Users who had previously clamored to compete for the treasure now quietly retreated a few steps, fearing they would bring trouble upon themselves.

Ji Chen walked slowly toward the treasure, reaching out his hand, about to touch that shining crystal.

"It seems I have to take action myself." The Masked Man's voice sounded again, carrying a suffocating sense of pressure.

Ji Chen's body had reached its limit, but his eyes remained as firm as ever.

The Masked Man's Supernatural Ability attacked like a storm, every attack tearing the surrounding air, emitting sharp whistling sounds.

Ji Chen had to dodge constantly, every step like racing against death.

For a time, the entire hall seemed to have become a massive battlefield, the two figures interweaving in light and darkness.

"Ji Chen, you can do it!" Ceng Yue cheered for him not far away. This power of hers was like a warm current, instantly injected into Ji Chen's heart, reigniting his fighting spirit.

He took a deep breath, the Supernatural Ability energy within him surging like a tide, a new power condensing in his heart.

"Since that's the case, let me raise it another level!" Ji Chen roared in a low voice, the light all over his body becoming even more dazzling.

He suddenly realized a new Supernatural Ability technique; this was not just an increase in power, but a complete mastery of the essence of Supernatural Ability.

He brought his hands together, and a brilliant pillar of light erupted from within him, shooting straight at the Masked Man.

The Masked Man snorted coldly, both hands also condensing a ball of black energy, meeting Ji Chen's pillar of light.

The two forces collided in the air, producing a deafening loud noise, the entire hall seeming to tremble.

However, the Masked Man's power seemed vulnerable in the face of Ji Chen's new technique, the pillar of light crushing it like cutting iron and gold.

"Impossible!" The Masked Man shouted in terror, his entire body radiating even more intense dark energy, attempting a final resistance.

But Ji Chen had already completely mastered the situation. He pointed in the air, and a small, sharp beam of light shot from his fingertip, accurately hitting the Masked Man's chest.

The Masked Man flew backward like a kite with a broken string, smashing heavily into the wall and not moving again.

Ji Chen stood in the center of the hall, his entire body radiating an awe-inspiring aura.

He walked slowly toward that shining crystal, only one step away from the treasure.

"Ji Chen, you are truly amazing!" Ceng Yue ran over, her eyes full of admiration and love.

Ji Chen smiled slightly, reaching out his hand, about to touch that brilliant crystal.

"However, has things really ended just like this?" A hint of unease flashed in Ji Chen's heart, but he still firmly reached out his hand and touched that Ability Treasure... ===== CHAPTER 133 =====
