From a loser to an immortal sage

Chapter 288 Xiao Yao Uncovers the Truth: Ultimate Victory

The barrier trembled violently, emitting a mournful cry of unbearable strain.

I gritted my teeth and poured my spiritual power into the magic weapon continuously, the dazzling light almost engulfing me.

"We must break through it!" I shouted at Wen Chen, my voice distorted by the impact of the energy.

Can he hear me?

I don't know, all I know is that I can't back down.

"Yao'er!" Wen Chen's voice came from behind, tinged with worry.

I turned my head, but all I saw was a blurry light and shadow.

Damn it, the power of this restriction is even stronger than I imagined!

I poured all my spiritual power into the magic weapon, and the ancient artifact let out a clear and melodious cry. Its light suddenly surged and it crashed hard into the barrier.

boom--!

A loud bang caused the entire passage to tremble violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

I felt a powerful recoil coming towards me, as if my internal organs had been violently struck.

"Pfft—" A mouthful of blood gushed out, and my body flew backward uncontrollably, crashing heavily to the ground.

My vision blurred, and my ears were ringing. I struggled to get up, but I felt completely powerless.

Wen Chen's figure appeared in my sight, his face full of worry, and he was running towards me.

"Yao'er!" His voice was anxious and worried.

I wanted to respond to him, but I couldn't make a sound.

The surrounding protective light intensified, as if mocking my overestimation of my abilities.

I tried to gather my scattered spiritual energy, wanting to try again, but found that the spiritual energy in my body had been exhausted.

Did I... lose?

No, not yet!

I saw the look in Wen Chen's eyes; it was a resolute look, a look of protection.

He stood before me, his tall figure like a mountain, shielding me from all danger.

"Yao'er, don't be afraid, I'm here." Wen Chen's voice was deep and firm, as if it had some kind of magic, which gradually calmed my panicked heart.

He slowly raised his hand, and in his palm, a dazzling white light was gathering...

Wen Chen slowly pushed his palm out, and the ball of white light suddenly expanded, transforming into a huge pillar of light that shot straight towards the restriction.

I felt the air around me freeze, and a powerful pressure made it almost impossible for me to breathe.

boom--!

The beam of light collided with the barrier, producing a deafening roar.

The entire space trembled violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

I saw Wen Chen's body trembling violently. His face was pale, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat. Large beads of sweat slid down his cheeks, dripped onto the ground, and shattered into pieces.

He gritted his teeth, his eyes resolute, like a majestic mountain, standing firm and unyielding.

The surrounding space began to distort, cracks appeared, like a shattered mirror.

The light from the barrier flickered, as if it might go out at any moment.

I struggled to stand up, but found that my body was still powerless.

I could only watch helplessly as Wen Chen endured all of this alone, my heart filled with worry and anxiety.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through my mind, and I remembered my experience in the ruins.

Those intricate runes, those peculiar formations...

Is it...

I endured the pain in my body, sat cross-legged on the ground, closed my eyes, and began to feel the energy fluctuations around me.

I tried to calm myself down, clear my mind of distractions, and focus my attention on the restriction.

I sensed that the power of the restriction was not evenly distributed, but rather had some special nodes where the energy fluctuations were stronger and more regular.

The people around me were very puzzled by my actions.

They didn't understand why I suddenly sat down and closed my eyes at that moment.

Has she given up?

Or did she discover something?

An atmosphere of curiosity spread across the ancient battlefield, rippling outwards.

"Yao'er, what are you doing?" Wen Chen's voice was weak, but still full of concern.

I slowly opened my eyes, a slight smile appearing on my lips. "I found it."

I pointed to a flickering point of light in the center of the barrier. "That's the key!" Wen Chen instantly understood what I meant. He withdrew his palm, took a deep breath, and concentrated his power at his fingertips. A sharp sword aura shot straight towards the point of light.

At the same time, I poured all the remaining spiritual power in my body into the magic weapon, and the dazzling light shone again. Together with Wen Chen's sword energy, it slammed into the light spot.

Click!

With a crisp sound, a crack appeared on the barrier, and then the crack quickly spread, covering the entire barrier like a spider web.

boom--!

With a loud bang, the barrier finally shattered, and a powerful force erupted from within, sweeping across the entire space like a volcanic eruption.

I felt a warm current flow into my body, filling my limbs and bones. My strength was rapidly increasing, and my previously depleted spiritual energy was instantly restored, even more abundant than before.

I opened my eyes and felt the world before me become clearer. My senses were also sharper, and I could even hear the faint sound of the wind in the distance.

Wen Chen was also bathed in this power, and his aura became even stronger, like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, its edge fully revealed.

We smiled at each other, our eyes filled with joy and confidence.

We made it!

After overcoming countless hardships, we finally broke through the barrier!

This power continues to flow into our bodies, and our strength is constantly increasing.

I feel as if I've been reborn, full of energy and vitality.

I even felt that I could control this power and use it as I pleased.

I stretched out my hand, and in my palm, a dazzling light was gathering. This power was so strong and so pure, as if it had merged with me.

Wen Chen walked up to me, reached out, and gently pulled me into his arms.

I could feel his heartbeat, strong and powerful, and his body temperature, warm and comforting.

We embraced tightly, feeling each other's warmth and heartbeats.

I know that our relationship has become even deeper and stronger during this adventure.

The air around us was filled with a warm and happy atmosphere, as if everything had become beautiful.

The glory shines upon us, as if celebrating and blessing us.

I looked up into Wen Chen's eyes, his...

"Yao'er..." he called my name softly, his voice low and hoarse, carrying an indescribable excitement.

I smiled slightly, "Dust..."

Suddenly, the surrounding air began to fluctuate, and a strange energy was slowly gathering...

Wen Chen and I both looked at the place where the energy was converging. What was that?

Wen Chen and I looked at the place where the energy was converging. The energy became clearer and clearer, and finally, it transformed into a human shape!

He was an old man with white hair and a youthful face, exuding an air of otherworldly wisdom. His eyes shone with a light of intelligence, as if he understood everything in the world.

"Congratulations to you both, you have passed the test." The old man looked at us kindly, his voice loud and clear, like a celestial sound from ancient times.

"You are the chosen ones of this ancient magical artifact, and you are qualified to control it."

It turns out that this mysterious power is actually the guardian of an ancient magical artifact!

He has been testing us, testing whether we are truly qualified to possess this divine artifact.

And now, we have passed the test!

A warm current surged through my body, and I was so excited that I could hardly speak.

I looked down at the ancient magical artifact in my hand; it emitted a soft light, as if responding to my wishes.

At that moment, I felt incredibly powerful, as if I could control the entire world!

I stood in the center of the ancient battlefield, holding an ancient magical weapon high in my hand.

The dazzling light enveloped me, and I felt as if I were in a golden ocean, warm, comfortable, and full of power.

All the difficulties and challenges vanished in this moment.

I defeated all enemies, overcame all difficulties, and finally stood at the pinnacle of victory!

An atmosphere of glory and pride filled the entire space; I could almost hear cheers, praises, and countless envious glances.

I am the strongest!

I am the victor!

Wen Chen stood beside me, reached out and took my hand. Our fingers intertwined, conveying strength and love to each other.

"Yao'er, we succeeded." Wen Chen's voice was low and hoarse, carrying an indescribable excitement.

I smiled slightly and gripped his hand tightly in return. "Chen, thank you."

However, amidst the joy of victory, the images of those who had framed me, those who had mocked and humiliated me suddenly surfaced in my mind.

Their faces are so ugly, their behavior so despicable.

A burning rage was raging within me.

"Chen, we should go." My tone was cold, as if carrying a chill.

Wen Chen was taken aback for a moment, then understood what I meant.

He nodded and gripped my hand tightly. "Okay, let's go."

We turned and left the ancient battlefield.

I glanced back; the entrance to the ancient battlefield was closed, and it would forever remain history.

And I am about to embark on a new journey.

I've arrived in the Celestial Realm! Tremble, my enemies!

I stopped and looked at the rolling mountains in the distance.

"Dust, map."
