End of the World Crisis, My Husband is from Ancient Times

Chapter 164: Ancient Energy Emerges, Overcoming All Difficulties

Fan Mengmeng held Teng Junze, touched his eyebrows with his fingertips, and closed his eyes to concentrate.

After a moment, she opened her eyes, and a strange light flashed in them.

"I feel... there is a familiar atmosphere here." Teng Junze frowned slightly, "Familiar? Have you been here before?" Fan Mengmeng shook her head, "No, this feeling is very strange, like... I have seen it somewhere before." Before she could think about it, there was another vibration from the ground, more violent than before.

The two men looked at each other, not daring to delay any longer, and carefully went deep underground along the place where the tentacles appeared.

The further down we went, the darker and damper it became, and the air was filled with a disgusting stench.

Fan Mengmeng couldn't help but cover her mouth and nose, trying hard to suppress the churning in her stomach.

Teng Junze held a sword in one hand and protected Fan Mengmeng with the other, observing his surroundings vigilantly.

Suddenly, a dark shadow passed over their heads, making a sharp hissing sound.

Teng Junze reacted quickly, swung his sword, and split the black shadow in half.

What fell to the ground was a strange creature with fleshy wings, emitting disgusting green slime all over its body.

Before they could catch their breath, more dark shadows came from all directions.

These creatures have different shapes, some can spray venom, and some can make hypnotic sounds, making them difficult to guard against.

Teng Junze brandished his sword, and the sword energy was so strong that he killed the approaching monsters one by one.

Fan Mengmeng followed closely behind, with a dagger in her hand. She dodged the attacks nimbly, waiting for an opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the monster.

The surrounding stone walls were corroded by the venom, making a sizzling sound. The air was filled with a pungent smell, making it difficult to breathe.

"Be careful!" Teng Junze pulled Fan Mengmeng behind him to block a monster that was spraying venom.

The venom splashed onto Teng Junze's sleeve, instantly corroding a big hole.

"Are you okay?" Fan Mengmeng asked worriedly.

Teng Junze shook his head, "These monsters seem to be afraid of light." He noticed that any monster hit by the sword energy would let out a painful hiss and turn into ashes in the light.

The battle lasted for a long time and both men were exhausted.

At this moment, Fan Mengmeng suddenly felt a powerful force surge from her body. She stretched out her hand involuntarily, and her palm emitted a dazzling light...

"Mengmeng!" Teng Junze exclaimed, "Your..."

The light in Fan Mengmeng's palm grew brighter and brighter, illuminating the entire underground space.

In the light, those strange creatures let out shrill roars, their bodies began to twist and deform, and eventually turned into ashes.

At the same time, countless images emerged in Fan Mengmeng's mind. She saw the past and present lives of these creatures and how they mutated from ordinary creatures into their current appearance.

"I know their weakness!" Fan Mengmeng said excitedly to Teng Junze, "Their eyes, their eyes are afraid of strong light!"

Upon hearing this, Teng Junze immediately changed his attack strategy.

He no longer swung his sword blindly, but instead condensed the sword energy into beams of light and shot them accurately at the monster's eyes.

Sure enough, the monster hit by the beam instantly lost its ability to move, fell to the ground wailing, and turned into ashes.

With Fan Mengmeng's guidance, their progress became smooth.

Every attack by Teng Junze hit the vital points, and those creatures fell down one after another, destroying themselves like moths to a flame.

Fan Mengmeng was very excited. She felt that she and Teng Junze were like two heroes fighting side by side, fearless.

As we went deeper, the surrounding scenery changed.

The originally damp and dark passage gradually became dry and bright.

The foul smell in the air gradually dissipated, replaced by a faint fragrance.

However, just when they thought they were about to find the source, a huge barrier appeared before them.

This barrier is like a transparent wall, emitting a faint blue light.

Teng Junze tried to chop with his sword, but it was useless.

He gathered his inner strength and punched the barrier, but the barrier only trembled slightly and made a dull sound.

"What is this?" Teng Junze was a little annoyed. His fist hit the barrier, making a dull sound, but it couldn't shake it at all.

Fan Mengmeng also tried to break through the barrier using various methods, but to no avail.

She placed her hands on the barrier, closed her eyes, and felt the energy contained in it.

Suddenly, a powerful recoil force surged out from the barrier...

Teng Junze watched helplessly as Fan Mengmeng was blown away and hit the stone wall behind him.

"Mengmeng!" He ran over and hugged Fan Mengmeng in his arms.

Fan Mengmeng's face was pale and there was a trace of blood at the corner of her mouth.

She struggled to open her eyes, looked at Teng Junze, and weakly uttered two words: ...

"Guli..."

Teng Junze felt heartbroken. He hugged Fan Mengmeng tightly, wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth with trembling fingertips.

The air around him seemed to freeze, with only Fan Mengmeng's faint breathing echoing in his ears.

He had never been so scared, as if she would disappear in the next moment.

While in a coma, Fan Mengmeng's consciousness was unstable.

She seemed to be in chaos, and heard ancient whispers in her ears, mysterious and obscure.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration passed through her mind, and she saw it - their blood, mixed together, emitted a dazzling light, illuminating the road ahead.

She suddenly opened her eyes, grabbed Teng Junze's hand, and said anxiously: "Our blood...Use our blood!"

Teng Junze was stunned for a moment, then he understood what she meant.

He drew out the dagger without hesitation and cut a deep wound on his palm.

Blood gushed out and dripped onto Fan Mengmeng's pale face.

He clasped his hand tightly with Fan Mengmeng's, and their blood mixed and dripped onto the barrier.

The barrier made a buzzing sound and the blue light flickered.

Tiny cracks appeared on the surface of the barrier, spreading like a spider web.

Teng Junze and Fan Mengmeng held their breath and watched all this nervously.

Click!

With a crisp sound, the barrier shattered and turned into starlight that dissipated into the air.

A powerful energy wave came from behind the barrier, carrying an ancient and mysterious aura.

"You...your abilities are incredible." Teng Junze looked at Fan Mengmeng, his eyes full of admiration and love.

Fan Mengmeng smiled weakly and tried to get up, but felt dizzy.

Teng Junze quickly supported her, and the two of them supported each other and walked step by step towards the unknown world behind the barrier.

A powerful energy rushed towards them, and they both looked up at the same time and saw...

Behind the broken barrier, there were no monsters or demons as imagined, but an empty cave.

In the center of the cave, a huge crystal ball was suspended in the air, emitting soft white light, illuminating the entire space.

Around the crystal ball, visible energy fluctuations spread out like ripples, and an ancient and mysterious atmosphere filled the air, which was awe-inspiring.

"Is this... the source of power?" Fan Mengmeng murmured to herself, deeply shocked by the scene before her.

Teng Junze held Fan Mengmeng's hand tightly, stared at the crystal ball with deep eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Be careful, this power is extraordinary." He could feel that this seemingly soft light contained a heart-pounding energy. If he was not careful, he might be reduced to ashes.

Fan Mengmeng nodded gently, snuggled in Teng Junze's arms, and felt the warmth and strength coming from him.

She knew that no matter what dangers lay ahead, as long as he was by her side, she would have nothing to fear.

The two approached the crystal ball cautiously, observing everything around them.

The walls of the cave are covered with strange runes that emit a faint fluorescence, which seems to be closely related to the power of the crystal ball.

"These runes..." Fan Mengmeng pointed at the runes on the wall, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes, "I seem to have seen them somewhere."

Teng Junze followed her gaze and frowned.

These runes were ancient and mysterious. He had never seen them before, yet he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if they had appeared in a dream.

"Perhaps, by unlocking the secrets of these runes, we can know the source and purpose of this power." Teng Junze said after pondering for a moment.

Fan Mengmeng nodded, and the two began to observe the runes carefully, trying to find some clues from them.

However, these runes were like heavenly books, obscure and difficult to understand. No matter how hard they tried, they could not comprehend their meaning.

Just when they were at a loss, Fan Mengmeng suddenly felt dizzy, her vision went black, and she almost fell to the ground.

Teng Junze was quick to support her and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Fan Mengmeng shook her head, her face pale. "I'm fine, I just... feel a little weird."

At this moment, the crystal ball suddenly shone brightly, and the runes in the cave also began to flicker and make a buzzing sound.

A powerful force surged out of the crystal ball, enveloping the two of them.

Teng Junze felt as if his body was bound by an invisible force and he could not move.

He hugged Fan Mengmeng tightly, trying to protect her with his body.

Countless images suddenly emerged in Fan Mengmeng's mind: ancient rituals, mysterious spells, and...

A familiar figure.

"Teng..." She uttered a word with difficulty, but could not say anything else.

The crystal ball's light grew brighter, and the runes in the cave flickered faster and faster, as if about to explode...

"Mengmeng!" Teng Junze exclaimed, his eyes full of worry and anxiety.

Suddenly, Fan Mengmeng stretched out her hand and her fingertips touched a rune on the wall.

In an instant, everything became quiet...

"I... I remember..." Fan Mengmeng looked at Teng Junze, her eyes filled with complicated emotions.
