Chapter 162

"What is that..." Ji Chen muttered to himself, his gaze locked on the crack that had suddenly appeared in the sky.

It was like a hideous scar, tearing through the tranquility of the urban supernatural world and radiating a faint light that made one's heart palpitate.

Ceng Yue also furrowed her brows slightly; it was rare to see a hint of gravity on her cool, indifferent face.

The watching ability users also noticed this phenomenon, and the original cheers gradually subsided, replaced by whispers and uneasy commotion.

"Could this be a sign of the end of the world?" someone whispered, their tone filled with fear.

"Let's go take a look." Ji Chen made a prompt decision, a firm light flashing in his eyes.

Rather than guessing wildly here, it was better to take the initiative and find out the truth.

Ceng Yue nodded silently, indicating her agreement.

The two figures flickered, transforming into two streams of light, rushing straight toward the crack in the sky.

The surrounding ability users looked up one after another, watching the two figures disappear into the clouds, and a tense atmosphere began to spread.

As they drew closer, the outline of the crack became clearer.

It wasn't a regular shape, but more like a trace left by some unknown force tearing through space, its edges flickering with a weird purple light.

A powerful suction force came from the crack, as if it wanted to swallow everything around it.

Ji Chen's body shook slightly; he clearly felt the pull of this suction, and a sense of unease surged in his heart.

"Be careful!" Ceng Yue's voice sounded in his ear, carrying a hint of subtle concern.

Ji Chen took a deep breath, trying to steady his figure, the supernatural ability in his dantian operating crazily to resist this powerful suction.

However, the suction force grew stronger, and the surrounding air became chaotic, as if it wanted to tear them into pieces.

"Hold on to me!" Ji Chen roared, grabbing Ceng Yue's hand.

"Heh, did I ask you to?" Ceng Yue gripped back, a subtle arc curling at the corner of her mouth.

"Interesting..." Ji Chen felt the force coming from her hand and muttered.

The purple light at the edge of the crack became even more dazzling, and the suction force increased along with it, like a giant vortex wanting to sweep everything into it.

Ji Chen let out a muffled groan, the supernatural ability in his dantian like a rushing river, crazily surging toward his limbs and bones.

A faint golden light gradually emerged on the surface of his body, as if he had put on a golden battle suit, setting him off like a god descending to earth.

"Interesting, you want to pull me in with just this much suction? I am the man who is going to stand at the peak of the supernatural world!" Ji Chen's mouth curled slightly, revealing a confident smile.

The powerful supernatural energy formed a barrier around him, slightly offsetting the suction force.

"Woohoo, takeoff!" he couldn't help but tease, as if he were in an amusement park.

Just then, Ceng Yue suddenly let go of his hand, her figure flashing as she flew toward the depths of the crack.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Ji Chen was startled and hurriedly shouted.

This woman really doesn't take the beaten path!

"Scouting the path." Ceng Yue's voice came from the depths of the crack, cool and concise, as if she were just describing a trivial matter.

Ji Chen looked at the figure gradually swallowed by the purple light, unable to help feeling a bit worried.

This woman is truly so cool and indifferent that she's unfathomable; she leaves when she says she's leaving, without even saying hello.

The surrounding air became more chaotic, and low roars came from the crack, like the growls of an ancient giant beast, making one's heart palpitate.

Ji Chen took a deep breath, trying to steady his figure, his gaze locked tightly on the direction where Ceng Yue had disappeared.

Suddenly, a slight "crack" sound came from the depths of the crack, followed by a dazzling red light shooting out, illuminating the entire sky...

"Not good!" Ji Chen's face changed drastically.

Ji Chen looked in the direction where Ceng Yue had disappeared, a sense of worry surging in his heart, but it was replaced by deep trust.

That woman, although cool and indifferent, her strength was definitely not to be underestimated.

The air was filled with a repressive aura, the roaring of the crack made his eardrums ache, and the surrounding clouds became distorted, like a monster opening its bloody mouth.

Ji Chen took a deep breath, casting all distracting thoughts aside, the supernatural ability in his dantian operating crazily; he flickered, rushing toward the crack like an arrow released from a bow.

"Hey, did you find anything?" Ji Chen shouted loudly as he approached rapidly, his voice sounding somewhat distorted in the gale.

"There is something here." Ceng Yue's voice came from the depths of the crack, carrying a hint of subtle excitement.

Ji Chen raised his brows, and his speed increased again.

He passed through the purple light curtain, and the view before him suddenly opened up.

The interior of the crack wasn't the void he had imagined, but had a world of its own.

Countless mysterious runes flickered like stars, radiating a faint blue light.

These runes were arranged densely, as if containing some ancient power, radiating an aura that inspired awe.

"What... what exactly is this?" Ji Chen exclaimed as he looked at the scene before him.

He had never seen such a strange sight.

Ceng Yue's gaze was fixed on those runes, and even her cool, indifferent face rarely showed a hint of curiosity.

"I don't know, but it feels very powerful," she muttered to herself, her tone carrying a hint of anticipation.

"Interesting, it seems this trip wasn't in vain," Ji Chen grinned, the excitement in his heart beyond words.

He felt the supernatural ability within him also stirring, as if pulled by some kind of force.

Just as the two were about to study these runes carefully, a commotion suddenly came from the depths of the crack, and powerful auras surged from within, making the air become viscous.

"Not good, something is coming!" Ji Chen's face changed, instinctively sensing the approach of danger.

No sooner had he spoken than countless black shadows surged out from the depths of the crack like a tide, emitting roars that made one's heart palpitate, and a powerful pressure instantly enveloped the entire space.

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue looked at each other, not a hint of fear in their eyes.

"Tsk, just in time; I was worried I wouldn't have a place to test my newly learned skills." Ji Chen stretched his muscles, a bloodthirsty smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

Ceng Yue remained cool and indifferent, only slowly raising her hands, cold air beginning to radiate from her body.

"Heh..." she emitted an ambiguous syllable.
