Chapter 252: The Path of Breaking the Barrier
Ji Chen and Ceng Yue stood side-by-side; that huge Barrier was like a giant transparent jelly, emitting ghostly light, blocking the path they were moving forward.
Ji Chen's eyes froze, the Supernatural Ability in his body beginning to stir, like a wild horse that had broken its reins, wanting to get to the bottom of it.
He slowly reached out his hand, his palm close to the Barrier, and an invisible pressure instantly struck, as if the entire space had frozen.
The surrounding air seemed to have become viscous, making it somewhat difficult to breathe.
Ceng Yue stood on the side, her beautiful eyes staring fixedly at Ji Chen; she could feel the tense atmosphere permeating the air, like the calm before a storm, pressing people until they couldn't breathe.
She knew this Barrier was by no means an ordinary thing; it wouldn't be an easy matter for Ji Chen to break through it.
"Let me try." Ji Chen said in a low voice, his tone carrying a trace of solemnity.
He took a deep breath, the Supernatural Ability in his body erupting like a volcanic eruption, turning into rays of brilliant light beams, slamming fiercely into the Barrier.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
A series of loud bangs came, like thunder, making people's eardrums ache.
However, the Barrier remained motionless, not even a trace of a crack appearing, as if it didn't belong to this world at all.
Ji Chen furrowed his brows, his face also becoming somewhat ugly.
His breathing began to become rapid, and fine sweat beads seeped from his forehead.
Continuous attacks consumed a lot of his power, fatigue surging into his heart like a tide, and a sense of frustration also sprouted in the bottom of his heart.
The hardness of this Barrier completely exceeded his imagination.
"No, this can't go on." Ji Chen gasped and said, his voice carrying a trace of helplessness.
He withdrew his hand.
Ceng Yue looked at him, feeling heartbroken, wanting to step forward to help, but being powerless.
She could feel Ji Chen's sense of powerlessness and anxiety, which made her heart tighten along with it.
The repressive atmosphere in the air became even heavier, as if a storm were about to arrive.
Ji Chen suddenly thought of something; he narrowed his eyes slightly, staring thoughtfully at that indestructible Barrier.
A flash of inspiration struck Ji Chen's mind, a wicked smile curled at the corner of his mouth, and he thought to himself: "This thing, isn't it here to send me energy?" He took a deep breath, no longer going head-to-head, but tentatively releasing his Supernatural Ability, like opening an invisible giant net, slowly wrapping toward the Barrier.
The moment the Supernatural Ability touched the Barrier, Ji Chen felt a warm energy pouring into his body, like a clear spring, instantly nourishing his dried-up meridians.
He felt his body had turned into a giant black hole, greedily absorbing the energy emitted from the Barrier; this feeling was simply too satisfying!
His body surface began to glow with faint light, like a luminous body, illuminating the gloomy space around him.
Ceng Yue saw Ji Chen's change, and her originally tense pretty face relaxed slightly; she could feel Ji Chen's momentum constantly climbing, as if an awakening ancient giant beast, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
However, good times didn't last long; the Barrier seemed to realize Ji Chen's intention, beginning to vibrate violently, the originally calm surface like boiling water, beginning to roll, and bursts of terrifying energy waves rushed toward Ji Chen like a violent storm.
"Holy crap, playing dirty, right?!" Ji Chen roared in his heart, hurriedly running the Supernatural Ability in his body to the extreme, forming a solid defense layer, trying to resist this powerful impact.
Bursts of energy waves slammed fiercely into Ji Chen's defense layer, making deafening loud bangs, like countless trucks colliding together at the same time.
Ji Chen felt his internal organs were about to be shattered, the blood in his body surging uncontrollably, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
He gritted his teeth, swallowing the fishy sweetness in his throat hard.
Ceng Yue was on the side, watching Ji Chen's figure swaying in the energy storm, her heart almost jumping to her throat.
She wanted to step forward to help, but was powerless, only able to pray silently in her heart, hoping Ji Chen could hold on.
Just when Ji Chen was about to be unable to hold on, he suddenly stopped absorbing energy; he slowly opened his eyes, sharp light flickering in them, like a sheathed sword, making people shudder.
"Interesting..." he muttered to himself, a thought-provoking smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
Ji Chen did not continue to attack head-on, but calmed down to study the energy fluctuations of the Barrier.
Ceng Yue stood on the side, her eyes full of surprise, the atmosphere around becoming mysterious and tense.
That Barrier was no longer so calm, the patterns on the surface beginning to distort, as if resisting something.
Ji Chen closed his eyes, as if entering his own world, focusing on finding the breakthrough point.
His brows furrowed, the Supernatural Ability energy in his hands like thin threads, touching every corner of the Barrier lightly, every touch making the surrounding air make a faint "zizi" sound, as if responding to his exploration.
"What are you doing?" Ceng Yue couldn't help but ask, her voice carrying a trace of anxiety.
"Don't worry, I found it." Ji Chen opened his eyes, sharp light flickering in them, like a sheathed sword.
He took a deep breath, the Supernatural Ability energy of his whole body erupting instantly, turning into a brilliant beam of light, accurately hitting the weak point of the Barrier.
"Bang!" With a deafening loud bang, the Barrier finally cracked a tiny gap, immediately after, the crack expanded rapidly, like a rift valley, tearing the entire Barrier apart.
Ji Chen and Ceng Yue only felt a flash before their eyes, the surrounding air instantly becoming fresh, as if the entire space were cheering for their victory.
Ji Chen stood there, like a winner, the surrounding light reflecting his figure even more firmly.
He turned to look at Ceng Yue, his eyes full of firmness: "Go, let's go in."
The two passed through that broken Barrier, instantly feeling a burst of intense dizziness.
When they stabilized their figures again, they found themselves in a strange space, the scene around making them feel confused.
Ji Chen's brows furrowed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "Here, what exactly is this place..." ===== CHAPTER 253 =====
