Chapter 94: Exploring the Backlight

Ji Chen stood in the center of the maze, feeling the joy of victory.

However, just then, the ground suddenly cracked, and a mysterious light shot into the sky.

"This... what is this again?" Ji Chen frowned, his gaze locked on that light.

The light seemed to contain some kind of indescribable power, making him subconsciously take a step back.

Ceng Yue also felt that power; her face changed slightly, her gaze carrying wariness.

The two looked at each other, their eyes carrying firmness.

Although their hearts were full of doubts, their curiosity and adventurous spirit were completely stimulated at this moment.

"Go, let's go see." Ji Chen said in a deep voice, his tone carrying unshakable determination.

Ceng Yue nodded, and the two walked side by side toward that light.

The closer they got to the light, the more Ji Chen and Ceng Yue could feel that powerful power.

An invisible power seemed to be trying to push them back; Ji Chen's face became even more solemn.

He tried to resist, but his body felt a bit numb from the shock, as if an invisible hand was forcibly pushing them away.

"This power is so strong, it doesn't look like an ordinary thing." Ceng Yue said in a low voice, her tone carrying a trace of trembling.

Ji Chen nodded, his eyes flickering with firm light.

He took a deep breath and took another step forward.

At this moment, an even more powerful power surged from the light, shaking the two back completely.

Ji Chen only felt a strong sense of oppression surging from all directions; his body felt as if it were bound by invisible shackles, unable to move.

"Don't go over, this thing is not simple." Ceng Yue's voice rang in his ear, carrying a trace of urgency.

Ji Chen struggled hard, trying to break that invisible restraint, but his body became heavier and heavier, as if pressed by a giant rock.

Just then, a cold voice suddenly came from the light, as if from another world: "Intruders, retreat."

Ji Chen and Ceng Yue looked at each other, their eyes full of shock.

They knew that this exploration journey was far more dangerous than they had imagined.

"We won't retreat." Ji Chen gritted his teeth, his eyes burning with unyielding flames.

He tightly held Ceng Yue's hand, the two looked at each other and smiled, preparing to meet the next challenge.

The light pulsed, and a low buzzing sound made the air vibrate, just like a heartbeat.

That invisible force field was like a giant hand, trying to push Ji Chen and Ceng Yue back to reality.

Deep in the light, a voice was cold and biting, like ten thousand years of cold ice: "Stupid mortals, retreat quickly, otherwise bear the consequences!" This voice didn't carry a trace of emotion, but it was full of deterrent force, as if from an ancient god, looking down on the tiny ants.

Ji Chen's lips curled into a cold smile, his eyes flickering with unyielding light.

"Bear the consequences? Grandpa wants to see what the consequences are!" The supernatural ability in his body surged crazily, like a surging river, roaring to break through all obstacles.

"Yue'er, hold tight!"

Ceng Yue didn't speak, just silently held Ji Chen's hand tighter.

Ji Chen took a deep breath, mobilizing his entire supernatural ability.

A powerful aura erupted from him, like a hurricane passing through, and the surrounding air became twisted.

He took a step forward, and the invisible pressure instantly increased several times, pressing him until he could barely breathe.

But he didn't retreat; instead, he walked forward even more firmly, every step like stepping on a giant's heart, deafening.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the supernatural ability on Ji Chen erupted, like a bursting star, dazzling.

He forcibly withstood that powerful pressure, walking toward the light step by step.

That invisible force field twisted and shattered in front of him, emitting waves of wails.

Ji Chen was like a war god, majestic and awe-inspiring.

The momentum on his body became stronger and stronger; after the obstructive power around him was broken by him, it became chaotic, like surging waves, rolling endlessly.

The light seemed to feel threatened, beginning to shake violently, emitting harsh screams.

That cold voice rang out again, carrying a trace of panic: "You... you actually..."

"I actually what?" Ji Chen's lips curled into a playful smile, his eyes full of provocation, "I actually dare to challenge you? This has only just begun!" He tightly held Ceng Yue's hand and continued to walk forward, every step taken incomparably firmly...

"Wait!" A cry came from the light

Amidst the light, countless hair-thin rays of light shot out suddenly, attacking Ji Chen and Ceng Yue like a violent storm.

The two moved like ghosts, dodging left and right, narrowly avoiding the attacks.

"Damn it, these rays can track?" Ji Chen cursed, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

These rays were extremely fast and came from tricky angles, making them impossible to guard against.

Ceng Yue also furrowed her brows; her movement was light, like a nimble cat weaving through the rays, but her expression gradually grew grave.

"Careful!" Ji Chen pulled Ceng Yue over, and a ray of light grazed her cheek, leaving a shallow bloodstain.

"Are you okay?" Ji Chen looked at the wound on Ceng Yue's face with heartache, his tone carrying a trace of worry.

Ceng Yue shook her head, but her gaze became soft; she leaned slowly into Ji Chen's embrace, feeling his warm hug, and the unease in her heart dissipated a little.

"Don't worry, I'm fine," Ceng Yue said in a low voice, her tone carrying a hint of tenderness.

Ji Chen looked at Ceng Yue, the anger in his heart erupting like a volcano; he swore that he would definitely make this light pay the price!

He took a deep breath, letting himself calm down.

He quickly analyzed the attack pattern of the rays in his mind, and soon, he discovered that these rays were not without method, but were strafing at a special frequency.

"Yue'er, watch me!" Ji Chen

"Now!" Ji Chen seized an opportunity and dashed to the edge of the light; he exerted force suddenly, and the supernatural ability in his body surged out like a tide, forming a solid barrier.

The rays struck the barrier, making a "zizi" sound, but could not penetrate it in the slightest.

Ji Chen seized the moment, pulled Ceng Yue, and rushed into the light.

However, what greeted them was not the secret they had imagined, but a massive energy vortex.

Inside the vortex, countless energies swirled crazily, like a giant black hole, emitting a chilling aura.

"What the hell is this thing?!" Ji Chen looked at the massive energy vortex before him and couldn't help but curse.

Ceng Yue also widened her eyes,

Ji Chen held Ceng Yue's hand tightly and was just about to say something when he heard a low voice coming from the vortex:

"Welcome to the Void Gate..."
