Chapter 262: Rebirth from Desperation

"Yue'er!" Ji Chen roared, and without thinking, rushed toward Ceng Yue like an arrow from a bow, using his own body to block in front of her.

At that moment, he seemed to have transformed into a guardian god.

Ceng Yue widened her eyes in terror, watching Ji Chen rush toward her without hesitation, her heart gripped tightly by an invisible giant hand, almost unable to breathe.

She wanted to shout, wanted to stop him, but found she could do nothing, could only watch helplessly as that life-taking light submerged Ji Chen's figure.

"Ji Chen!" She cried out in despair, her voice hoarse, tears blurring her vision.

The dazzling light dissipated, the energy shockwave distorted the surrounding space, gravel splashing, dust filling the air, as if the end of the world had arrived.

Ceng Yue sat on the ground, staring ahead with empty eyes, her heart filled with fear and despair.

In the thick smoke and dust, a figure slowly appeared.

Ji Chen stood unsteadily, his body scarred by the huge energy impact, blood constantly flowing from the corners of his mouth, staining his clothes red.

He gasped painfully.

"Ji Chen!" Ceng Yue saw he was still alive, and a glimmer of hope ignited in her heart; she struggled to climb up, staggering to his side, supporting his crumbling body.

"Are... are you okay?" She asked tremblingly, her voice carrying a sobbing tone.

Ji Chen shook his head with difficulty, a bitter smile appearing at the corner of his mouth: "I'm fine... cough, cough... just... a little painful..."

He reached out his hand, wanting to touch Ceng Yue's cheek, but it dropped powerlessly.

"Don't... don't worry about me..." He said intermittently, "I... I can still... fight..."

His voice grew lower and lower, his eyelids heavier and heavier, and finally, he closed his eyes powerlessly and fell into a coma.

"Ji Chen! Ji Chen!" Ceng Yue hugged him, crying out in despair.

Just at this moment, the surrounding air suddenly became abnormally oppressive, and a powerful energy fluctuation emanated from Ji Chen's body, shaking everything around.

"This... this is..." Ceng Yue looked at him in terror, feeling an unprecedented power awakening within his body...

"Could it be..." She muttered to herself, "This is... the true beginning..."

Ji Chen's body was like a huge energy furnace, boiling energy surging crazily within his body.

That newborn power, like a galloping river, washed over every corner of his body, nourishing his withered meridians.

Under his skin, blood flowed like magma, emitting scorching light, like a god of war reborn from the fire.

He slowly opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with unprecedented confidence and sharpness, like two scorching stars, making people dare not look directly.

"Tsk, this feeling, it's simply too good!" Ji Chen whispered, a charming smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

He slowly stood up, every step carrying a heart-palpitating sense of vibration.

The surrounding energy creatures seemed to have sensed the terrifying power erupting within his body, one after another letting out fearful hisses, beginning to retreat instinctively.

But Ji Chen had already killed until his eyes were red, how could he give them a chance to escape?

He raised his hand, dazzling light gathering in his palm, like a small sun, emitting suffocating energy fluctuations.

He felt the surging power within his body, as if he could destroy everything; he finally understood that he was the true chosen one, this power was like opening a cheat!

"Die for Grandpa!" Ji Chen roared, like thunder, pouring out the energy gathered in his hands.

That light was like a world-destroying flood, instantly swallowing the surrounding energy creatures.

Those energy creatures that were arrogant and domineering just now were like ants being crushed, constantly struggling and hissing in the light, finally turning into nothingness.

The air was filled with a burnt smell, and space was distorted because of this powerful force.

Ji Chen didn't stop for a moment; he rushed toward the remaining energy creatures like a cheetah, his fists, his legs, every strike containing world-destroying power, pouring down like a storm.

The bodies of the energy creatures constantly burst under Ji Chen's attacks, making scalp-numbing shattering sounds, flesh and blood flying, like the arrival of the end of the world.

The surrounding space constantly shook in the energy fluctuations of their battle, rising and falling like sea waves; if anyone were here, they would definitely be shocked speechless by this world-destroying scene.

Every punch Ji Chen threw carried a power that shocked heaven and earth; he was like an invincible god of war, fighting in blood, his wounds healing rapidly, as if he possessed an immortal body.

He fought more bravely as he went, his fighting intent growing stronger; he wanted to grind these guys who had once bullied him and threatened his lover into powder!

"Damn, who else?" Ji Chen roared to the sky, his voice filled with unparalleled confidence.

Just at this moment, he felt the power within his body surging again, an even more powerful force gathering in his dantian, his body making crackling sounds, like a chick about to break out of its shell.

"This power..." Ceng Yue muttered to herself, her eyes filled with shock and a trace of unbelievable light; she seemed to have seen something incredible, seeming to indicate that a more earth-shattering change would occur next.

"Come on, you scums, let Grandpa send you on your final journey!" Ji Chen laughed wildly, the energy all over his body erupting like a volcanic eruption, gathering in his hands into a dazzling light ball, like a miniature sun, emitting a world-destroying aura.

"Annihilate!"

With a roar, the light ball left his hand, cutting through space, carrying the momentum of breaking through everything, and smashed hard against the remaining energy creatures.

With a loud noise, heaven and earth changed color, space shook.

Dazzling light swallowed everything, as if the end of the world had arrived.

The shockwave generated by the explosion swept in all directions, rolling all the surrounding gravel and dust into the sky, forming a huge mushroom cloud.

When the light dissipated and the dust settled, only a huge deep pit remained on the spot, the energy creatures had long since vanished, completely disappearing from this world.

Ji Chen stood proudly, bathed in the glory of victory, like a god descending to earth.

His wounds had completely healed, his clothes tattered but unable to hide his king-like dominance.

He gasped slightly, feeling the surging power within his body, a charming arc appearing at the corner of his mouth: "Just this? Nothing more."

"Ji Chen!" Ceng Yue flew over, excitement flashing in her eyes, throwing herself into his arms, hugging him tightly, fearing he would disappear again.

"It's okay, Yue'er." Ji Chen gently stroked her hair, saying gently, "Everything is over."

The two hugged tightly, feeling each other's body temperature, enjoying this hard-won victory.

The surrounding space also seemed to be celebrating for them, flashing with specks of starlight, like a dreamlike fairy tale world.

"We won!" Ceng Yue shouted excitedly, her voice carrying a trace of trembling.

"Yes, we won." Ji Chen also smiled, smiling so happily, so freely.

At this moment, they seemed to stand at the peak of the world, looking down at all living beings.

However, just when they were immersed in the joy of victory, a huge portal suddenly appeared in the distance, slowly opening, revealing a mysterious and powerful aura from within, as if connecting to another unknown world.

"What is that?" Ceng Yue pointed to the portal in the distance and asked in surprise.

Ji Chen also looked at the portal, he gripped Ceng Yue's hand tightly, and said firmly: "Let's go take a look together."

The two smiled at each other, without the slightest hesitation, and walked toward the mysterious portal...

"Wait!" Ji Chen suddenly stopped, his gaze fixed on the depths of the portal, a flash of brilliance in his eyes, "I felt it..." ===== CHAPTER 263 =====
