Chapter 134: Summoning of the Secret Wave
Ji Chen's brow furrowed into a "chuan" shape; the commotion the treasure made was like dropping a depth charge into a calm lake, the ripples impacting his nerves circle by circle.
He could clearly feel that the fluctuation carried a hint of eerie summoning, as if saying: "Hey, buddy, there's something good here, come take a look!"
"Let's go, let's take a look." Ji Chen didn't hesitate in the slightest, directly pulling Ceng Yue's hand, preparing to go deep into the source of this fluctuation.
His eyes were as firm as steel, as if saying: "Today, I, Ji, am going to strip the secret of this treasure bare!" He strode with long legs, his figure like the wind, carrying a determination that no one could stop.
The surrounding Ability Users looked at Ji Chen's back, revealing "trembling" expressions one after another.
The Ji Chen who was just as fierce as a tiger now had an extra sense of "the big shot goes on an expedition, not a blade of grass grows," making people's legs tremble a bit.
A tense atmosphere like an invisible giant net tightly enveloped everyone present.
"Damn, is this guy too fierce?" an Ability User muttered, their voice filled with deep awe. "Is this the legendary 'high skill and bold heart'?"
They followed Ji Chen, groping forward cautiously all the way, like a group of elementary school students led by a teacher, sneaking off to explore some unknown territory.
"There's something ahead!" Ceng Yue suddenly stopped, her tone still cold, but carrying a hint of vigilance.
Ji Chen also felt it; a powerful energy fluctuation like an invisible wall blocked their path.
This energy carried a hint of an ancient and mysterious aura, making people feel full of pressure.
The space before them seemed to have been distorted, the air becoming viscous, making people feel that breathing was a bit difficult.
"This is... an Ability Restriction?" Ji Chen narrowed his eyes, looking at the barrier before him that seemed boundless, his brow furrowing even tighter.
He reached out his hand, tentatively touching it, and a massive counter-shock force instantly struck, making him feel as if his hand had hit a steel wall, shaking his palm until it was numb.
"Damn, so fierce!" Ji Chen couldn't help but curse; the intensity of this restriction completely exceeded his expectations.
He could feel the massive energy contained within the restriction, like a sleeping giant beast, ready to wake up at any moment and swallow everything.
He took a deep breath, his eyes becoming even more grave, as if he had made up his mind. "Today, I really have to break into this dragon's pool and tiger's den!"
Ji Chen's eyes condensed, an even more powerful aura erupting from him, the Supernatural Ability power within him beginning to run crazily, like a volcanic eruption.
He slowly raised his hand, feeling every thread of power within him, his eyes like a leopard locking onto its prey, filled with dangerous light.
The muscles on his arms also bulged slightly at this moment, seemingly having prepared for battle.
Ji Chen took a deep breath; in his dantian, the Supernatural Ability energy surged out like a raging river.
Dazzling light erupted from within him, enveloping his entire person, like a god descended to earth.
His arm muscles were knotted, containing explosive power.
"Break for me!"
With a roar, Ji Chen transformed into a stream of light, slamming fiercely into that seemingly indestructible restriction.
"Boom!"
With a loud noise, the heavens and earth trembled.
On the restriction, ripples surged, like a giant stone being thrown into a calm water surface.
Following that, cracks spread like a spiderweb, and finally, with a "crack," the restriction shattered with a crash!
Seeing this, the surrounding Ability Users were all dumbfounded, their jaws almost dropping to the ground.
"Damn, awesome!", "Did this guy use cheats?", "This restriction is something even high-level Ability Users are helpless against!" Exclamations rose and fell, as if the pot had exploded.
Ji Chen landed steadily on the ground, his lips curling slightly, a huge sense of achievement rising in his heart.
"Hmph, nothing more than this."
However, before he could be proud for too long, the scene behind the restriction made him instantly vigilant.
Behind the restriction was not the treasure he had imagined, but an empty plaza.
In the center of the plaza stood a group of strange-looking creatures.
They were tall, their faces ferocious, their entire bodies radiating an ancient and evil aura.
"What the hell is this?" Ji Chen muttered to himself, a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
These creatures seemed to feel the arrival of Ji Chen and Ceng Yue, turning their heads in unison, their scarlet eyes staring fixedly at them, emitting bursts of low roars.
"Careful!" Ceng Yue drank low, condensing an ice blade in her hand and shooting it toward the nearest creature.
"Whoosh!"
The ice blade tore through the air, accurately hitting the creature's head.
However, the expected damage did not appear; the ice blade actually passed directly through its body, leaving no trace at all.
"What?!" Ceng Yue's expression changed slightly. Are these creatures immune to physical attacks?
The next moment, these creatures moved.
They were extremely fast, arriving before Ji Chen and Ceng Yue in the blink of an eye, waving sharp claws and grabbing fiercely toward them.
"Bang bang bang!"
A series of attacks smashed the surrounding ground into a thousand holes, dust flying everywhere.
Ji Chen and Ceng Yue dodged left and right, narrowly avoiding the attacks.
"These guys, their attack method is so strange!" Ji Chen thought to himself while dodging, observing the attack methods of these creatures and secretly thinking of countermeasures.
Ceng Yue's brows furrowed slightly. Suddenly, she seemed to have discovered something, saying in a low voice: "Wait..."
Ceng Yue's gaze locked tightly onto those ancient creatures, a hint of brilliance flashing in the depths of her eyes.
She discovered that although these guys were immune to physical attacks, they seemed very sensitive to a specific energy frequency.
"Ji Chen, try changing your Ability frequency!"
"What thing?" Ji Chen was stunned; this operation was a bit peculiar!
Changing Ability frequency?
Isn't this like tuning a radio channel?
But he still chose to trust Ceng Yue; after all, this woman was his "brain trust."
He took a deep breath, concentrating, and began to try adjusting the Ability fluctuations within his body, like a tuner plucking strings, cautiously searching for that suitable frequency.
With the change in Ji Chen's Ability frequency, the movements of those ancient creatures, which had been baring their fangs and brandishing their claws, began to slow down.
The fierce light in their scarlet eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a hint of confusion.
Following that, they actually stopped attacking in unison, as if pressed by a pause button, and stood dumbfounded in place.
"My god, it really works!" Ji Chen widened his eyes, looking incredulous. This feeling was like discovering a bug while playing a game; it was simply too cool!
The surrounding Ability Users were also dumbfounded one after another; the monsters that had just been fierce and evil were now like a group of obedient babies, not moving at all. This contrast was too big, right?
"I give this operation full marks!" an Ability User couldn't help but exclaim, their voice filled with deep admiration. It seems that hanging out with powerful people definitely has benefits!
Ji Chen looked at Ceng Yue gratefully, a warm current surging in his heart.
He pulled Ceng Yue tightly into his arms, feeling the faint fragrance on her body, as if holding the most precious treasure in the world.
Ceng Yue leaned in Ji Chen's arms, feeling his warm embrace, and a hint of tenderness that was hard to detect appeared on her cold face.
"I accept this show of affection!" an Ability User clutched their chest, making an expression of being sweetened. Is the competition for showing affection getting intense these days?
After a brief moment of warmth, Ji Chen and Ceng Yue quickly adjusted their states and continued to go deep into this mysterious area.
They passed through the plaza and arrived at an open area.
There, a massive Rune Array came into view. On the surface of the Rune Array, strange light flickered, and a dangerous aura permeated the air.
Ji Chen and Ceng Yue stood before the Rune Array, the light of the Rune Array flickering uncertainly. ===== CHAPTER 135 =====
