Chapter 214: Entering the Mysterious Realm

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue stepped into that mysterious light without a moment's hesitation, as if stepping into the entrance of another dimension.

The moment they entered, an energy impact so powerful it was suffocating rushed toward them like a tsunami, and both of their bodies couldn't help but sway.

This feeling was like riding a roller coaster and suddenly rushing to the peak; their hearts were about to jump out!

They quickly steadied themselves, their eyes filled with both vigilance and excitement for the unknown.

The surrounding space flickered with colorful light, as if they were inside a giant kaleidoscope; all kinds of strange energy fluctuations intertwined, dazzling the eyes, and their ears were filled with a "buzzing" low hum.

"This place is quite interesting!" Ji Chen couldn't help but grin; he could feel his internal Supernatural Ability energy surging like boiling water, restless and wild.

Ceng Yue didn't speak, only narrowing her eyes slightly, her cold gaze scanning the surroundings like a leopard ready to strike at any moment.

As they delved deeper, the surrounding environment became increasingly complex, and they discovered they were in a massive Energy Maze.

The surrounding walls were like flowing curtains of light, constantly changing color and shape.

Under their feet was an unknown substance, soft and slightly elastic; every step felt like walking on clouds, making it feel very unreal.

From time to time, "click-clack" sounds came from the Maze; those were the sounds of energy mechanisms activating.

Once a single step was taken wrong, a lethal trap might be triggered.

Ji Chen took a deep breath and released his perception, scanning the surrounding environment like a radar.

He was like a professional bomb disposal expert, carefully avoiding one hidden danger after another.

Ceng Yue followed closely behind, her Air Manipulation also invisibly helping Ji Chen reduce some of the risks.

The two cooperated tacitly, like comrades fighting side-by-side, backs against each other, keeping all danger at bay.

The tense atmosphere was like a taut string, ready to snap at any moment.

Their heartbeats were also like war drums, each one more rapid than the last.

Suddenly, Ji Chen stopped in his tracks; he felt something amiss, as the air was permeated with a familiar yet strange energy fluctuation.

"Something's wrong..." Ji Chen frowned, just about to speak.

But Ceng Yue pressed down on his shoulder first, signaling him to be silent.

Her gaze was fixed intently ahead.

"Do you... feel it?" Ceng Yue's voice was very soft, yet carried a trace of imperceptible trembling.

Ji Chen's body gave a slight jolt; his perception scanned the surroundings like a radar, and although he didn't reveal any special Golden Finger, he had already outlined the potential danger in his mind.

A confident smile appeared on his face, just like a seasoned hunter who had discovered the tracks of his prey.

The oppressive feeling in the surroundings gradually lessened, and Ceng Yue also felt the change in him, her admiration growing by a notch.

"There is an energy mechanism here, be careful." Ji Chen said softly, extending his hand as if guiding the flow of air invisibly to avoid a hidden trap ahead.

Ceng Yue nodded, and under her control, the air turned into a transparent Barrier, and the two pushed forward in tacit understanding.

Suddenly, a burst of intense energy fluctuation came from ahead, accompanied by a slight tremor of the ground, and a massive energy Guardian slowly appeared in their field of vision.

This Guardian was huge, its entire body covered in shimmering energy armor, its eyes flashing with a cold, ruthless light.

It clenched its hands, and a massive Energy Wave beam struck toward Ji Chen and Ceng Yue.

"Watch out!" Ji Chen shouted, quickly dodging the energy beam while releasing his Supernatural Ability to form a solid shield.

Ceng Yue was not to be outdone; her Air Manipulation turned into sharp Wind Blades, launching a counterattack against the Guardian.

Their movements were like flowing water, one attacking and one defending, as if they had practiced it countless times.

However, the Guardian's power far exceeded their expectations, each attack carrying a destructive force.

Ji Chen's shield began to show cracks after several impacts, and Ceng Yue's Wind Blades were also easily neutralized.

Their heartbeats were as rapid as war drums, and fine beads of sweat seeped from their foreheads.

Just then, a mysterious image emerged in a corner of the Maze, seemingly watching all of this in silence.

The figure in the image was blurry, but those eyes revealed a sense of vicissitudes and wisdom, as if judging the outcome of this battle.

The Guardian launched another fierce attack; Ji Chen and Ceng Yue stood back-to-back, looking at each other with firm gazes, as if having reached some consensus in silence.

"Are you ready?" Ji Chen's tone carried a hint of unquestionable firmness.

Ceng Yue nodded.

The two took a deep breath, and their Supernatural Abilities began to merge at this critical moment; an unprecedented energy gathered between them, preparing to welcome the final explosion of this battle.

The Supernatural Abilities of Ji Chen and Ceng Yue were like two rushing rivers, beginning to converge and merge under each other's guidance.

Around their bodies, energy light leaped like flames, illuminating the surrounding space brightly.

This fused energy carried a world-destroying momentum, as if it would Devour everything.

"Boom!"

With a deafening roar, the fused Supernatural Ability of Ji Chen and Ceng Yue struck the Guardian's attack like a volcanic eruption.

The two powerful energies collided instantly, erupting in a blinding light as if a sun had exploded, causing the entire space to tremble.

"Crack!"

The Guardian's energy armor began to show fine cracks under the powerful impact, spreading like a spider web.

It let out an angry roar, but was powerless to stop its fate of being pushed back.

"Got it!" Ji Chen grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth; he felt as if he had been injected with adrenaline, filled with power.

Ceng Yue also rarely smiled; although still cold, it carried a trace of the joy of victory.

The energy light on her body gradually dissipated, revealing her delicate face.

The two cheered like triumphant generals, and the surrounding energy fluctuations became gentle, no longer as oppressive as before.

"Phew, I can brag about this for a year!" Ji Chen couldn't help but quip, feeling that he was simply incredibly cool.

The corners of Ceng Yue's mouth lifted slightly.

"You were great too!" Ceng Yue's voice was very soft, yet carried a trace of imperceptible trembling; this was the first time she had taken the initiative to hug Ji Chen, and also the first time she had expressed her own emotions.

Ji Chen's heart jumped violently; he felt as if he had been electrocuted, his whole body tingling.

He reached back to embrace Ceng Yue, their bodies pressed tightly together, feeling each other's heartbeats.

"Heh heh, that's right, don't you see who your man is!" Ji Chen couldn't help but boast, feeling that at this moment, he had reached the peak of his life.

The two gazed into each other's eyes.

They slowly pulled apart, Ceng Yue's cheeks flushing slightly; she dared not look directly into Ji Chen's eyes.

"Let's go, there are more important things," Ceng Yue said in a low voice, turning first to walk toward the depths of the Maze.

Ji Chen watched her back.

As they continued forward, they discovered...

They continued forward, passing through winding energy passages, the light around them growing increasingly intense, as if it were about to Devour everything.

Finally, at the end of the Maze, a massive sphere of light came into view; it emitted a soft radiance, pulsing like a giant heart.

"This... could this be..." Ji Chen widened his eyes, feeling the immense energy contained within the sphere of light, and he felt his own Supernatural Ability stirring frantically.

"It is the source of Supernatural Ability," Ceng Yue's voice remained cold, yet it carried a trace of imperceptible excitement.

Around the sphere of light, countless flickering Runes were suspended, like dancing sprites, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue exchanged a glance, both seeing the longing in each other's eyes.

They knew this might be the ultimate secret to elevating their Supernatural Ability!

The two stepped into the sphere of light without hesitation, and in an instant, a warm and powerful energy enveloped them.

It was like being in a hot spring; every pore opened, greedily absorbing this energy.

Under the illumination of the light, their bodies began to undergo a transformation: bones grew, muscles were reshaped, and their Supernatural Ability was rising wildly.

"Holy crap! This feeling... is too good!" Ji Chen couldn't help but exclaim; he felt as if he had been reborn, filled with unparalleled power, his Supernatural Ability level soaring like a rocket.

Ceng Yue's body also emitted a dazzling light, her Air Manipulation becoming more refined, as if she could control the entire space.

Her temperament also became more cold and glamorous, like an ice queen, making one afraid to look directly at her.

As the energy continued to pour in, a massive Energy Vortex formed around both of their bodies.

Their Supernatural Ability levels broke through continuously, from Initial Stage to Intermediate Stage, then to Advanced Stage, and finally reached the Peak Stage, making them the true leaders of this urban supernatural world.

When the light dissipated, they opened their eyes, and everything around them had become different.

They could feel the energy fluctuations in the air, could control the surrounding space, and could see deeper secrets.

The entire space was cheering for them, the energy light surging like a tide, as if welcoming the birth of new kings.

"Hahaha, from today on, I am the coolest kid in this city!" Ji Chen laughed excitedly, feeling that his life had reached its peak.

The corners of Ceng Yue's mouth also lifted slightly; she stood shoulder to shoulder with Ji Chen, feeling each other's strength, their hearts pressed tightly together, and they were the strongest existences in this urban supernatural world.

However, just as they were immersed in joy, Ji Chen's brow furrowed slightly.

He felt that this Inheritance Ground did not seem so simple; behind this powerful energy, another greater secret seemed to be hidden.

He was about to speak, but saw Ceng Yue's gaze become sharp, her finger pointing at the ground.
