Chapter 220: When the Truth Comes to Light

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue took a deep breath and stepped into the mysterious entrance of the Energy Ball.

The moment they entered, an intense white light swallowed them, and their bodies swayed uncontrollably, as if they were inside the spin-dry drum of a washing machine.

Once the dizziness faded slightly, the two gradually adapted to the blinding light.

"Damn, what is this situation? It's blinding my 24K krypton-gold dog eyes!" Ji Chen couldn't help but complain, yet he noticed his voice carried a hint of trembling.

Ceng Yue did not speak, only gripping Ji Chen's hand tightly, her eyes revealing an unprecedented solemnity.

The surrounding light was not evenly distributed, but rather like countless tiny threads, interwoven and tangled, as if hiding countless secrets.

The air was permeated with a strange energy fluctuation, making one feel inexplicably oppressed and tense.

Suddenly, the surrounding light began to twist and deform, gradually condensing into sharp energy spikes, like the quills of a hedgehog, densely covering the entire space.

These spikes shimmered with a cold, eerie light, carrying a hint of danger as they slowly closed in on them.

"Careful!" Ji Chen pulled Ceng Yue behind him, his eyes scanning the surrounding spikes with vigilance.

The speed of the energy spikes grew faster and faster, pouring down like a rainstorm.

Ji Chen was quick-witted and fast-handed, rapidly releasing his Supernatural Ability to form an energy Barrier, blocking the incoming spikes one by one.

The "clinking and clanging" sounds of impact were incessant, like hail hitting a roof, making one's heart jump.

"Hiss—" a soft gasp came from behind him.

Ji Chen turned his head abruptly to see Ceng Yue's sleeve torn by a spike, revealing a small wound.

"Are you okay?" Ji Chen asked with concern.

Ceng Yue shook her head, though her face was somewhat pale, "I'm fine, it's just..."

Before she could finish her sentence, the surrounding spikes suddenly became even denser, their speed increasing several times over, attacking them as if they had gone mad.

Even with Ji Chen defending with all his might, he felt somewhat overwhelmed.

"This can't go on!" Ji Chen gritted his teeth, feeling extremely anxious, "Must think of a way..."

He looked up abruptly, his gaze landing on those energy spikes shimmering with cold, eerie light, and a bold idea emerged in his mind...

"Yueyue, hold onto me!"

Ji Chen quickly used his Golden Finger to absorb the energy of the spikes, and feeling the energy surging wildly within his body, he rapidly converted this energy into a powerful Protection Shield, enveloping himself and Ceng Yue within it.

The Protection Shield was like a sturdy fortress, instantly rebounding all the spikes and emitting a series of crisp sounds.

"Yueyue, hold onto me!" Ji Chen's voice echoed within the Protection Shield, his eyes flashing with unprecedented confidence.

Ceng Yue gripped Ji Chen's hand tightly, her complexion gradually returning to normal, and she felt an inexplicable sense of security.

The oppressive atmosphere around them began to gradually dissipate, and the surrounding light became much softer.

However, at this very moment, a heart-stopping loud noise tore through the air, and a giant monster formed from all the dangerous elements encountered previously appeared before them.

This monster stood several zhang tall, its body composed of various elements like energy spikes, flames, and ice, its eyes revealing incomparable cunning and ferocity.

The monster let out a deafening roar, causing the ground to tremble.

It swung its massive claws, instantly tearing through the air, and attacked Ji Chen and Ceng Yue with great power.

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue responded with all their might without hesitation, their Supernatural Abilities pouring out like a storm, colliding head-on with the monster's attacks; the surrounding energy fluctuations were intense, and the tension reached its peak.

Ji Chen's eyes were like sharp swords, tightly locking onto every movement of the monster, and relying on his agility and strength, he resolved the crisis time and again.

Ceng Yue calmly assisted Ji Chen, her Supernatural Ability like fine rain, precisely striking the monster's weak points.

For a time, the monster's offensive was contained, but its power remained unbelievably strong.

Just as the contest between the two sides reached a white-hot moment, Ji Chen suddenly felt a warm power coming from Ceng Yue's hand, and his heart stirred.

"We will definitely win!" Ji Chen said firmly, his eyes flashing with unshakable conviction.

Ceng Yue nodded slightly, and the two embraced tightly, passing strength and courage to each other.

Accompanied by a heaven-shaking roar, the monster's offensive became even more ferocious, but Ji Chen and Ceng Yue found their most solid reliance in each other amidst this crisis.

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue embraced tightly, their hot breaths intertwined, and their eyes reflected each other's resolute figures.

A long kiss, like a scorching flame, ignited the love in their hearts and allowed their power to be sublimated at this moment.

The air was filled with a sweet scent, forming a sharp contrast with the tense battle atmosphere around them, as if time had stood still for them for an instant.

"For us, for the future!" Ji Chen whispered.

Ceng Yue did not speak, only hugging Ji Chen back tightly, responding to his emotions with action.

Their bodies were pressed closely together, and their energy and love began to blend wildly, erupting like a volcanic explosion and forming a massive Energy Vortex around the two of them.

This power surpassed any of their previous outbursts, carrying their deep love for each other and their expectations for the future, reaching an unprecedented peak.

"Boom!"

A heaven-shaking, earth-shattering loud noise, as if it were about to tear the entire space apart.

The strongest strike launched by Ji Chen and Ceng Yue together, like a brilliant meteor, directly pierced through the giant monster's body.

That massive body composed of various elements was completely shattered in an instant, turning into specks of light and dissipating into the air.

The entire space was illuminated by this dazzling light, as if welcoming a grand sunrise.

"We won!" Ji Chen roared excitedly, his voice filled with the joy of victory.

Ceng Yue also revealed a long-lost smile, and her tense body relaxed.

They stood proudly in this space like true invincible beings, enjoying the glory of their victory.

However, just as the two were immersed in the joy of victory, Ji Chen keenly felt that the surrounding space was beginning to undergo an anomaly.

The originally solid ground began to become illusory, and the surrounding light also began to twist and deform.

An ominous premonition welled up in his heart.

"Something's wrong..." Ji Chen frowned, his tone low, "It seems like this place is about to disappear."

Ceng Yue also sensed the abnormality, and she grabbed Ji Chen's hand.

"Look!" She pointed into the distance, her tone somewhat trembling.

Suddenly, a massive vortex appeared in the space ahead, Devouring everything around it like a black hole.

A powerful suction force arrived, causing the two of them to involuntarily draw closer to the center of the vortex.

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue exchanged a glance, both seeing the same confusion and unease in the other's eyes.

"What is going on?" Ji Chen had just wanted to ask, but found that his body was already being uncontrollably Devoured by the vortex.

Just at this moment, a flash of intense light streaked by, and the two of them vanished instantly within this space that was on the verge of collapse, as if they had never appeared at all.
