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

Chapter 163: Dangerous Road Appears, Brave Men Are Not Fearful

The earth began to tremble, and the originally gentle valley suddenly became hideous.

Fan Mengmeng, who was nestled in Teng Junze's arms, screamed and almost fell down.

Teng Junze quickly supported her, a hint of worry flashing in his deep eyes.

The happy atmosphere was torn apart by the sudden vibration. The surrounding trees shook violently, startling a flock of birds, which flapped their wings and fled in panic.

"What's going on?" Fan Mengmeng subconsciously grabbed Teng Junze's sleeve, her heart pounding.

This sudden change made her a little flustered, but she quickly calmed down, her eyes full of vigilance.

Teng Junze frowned, a strong sense of uneasiness rising in his heart.

He felt a powerful force surging deep underground, a force that made his heart palpitate.

He held Fan Mengmeng's hand tightly, protecting her behind him, and scanned the surroundings with sharp eyes.

However, what happened next was beyond Teng Junze's expectations.

Fan Mengmeng did not hide behind him for protection as usual, but took a step forward and looked firmly at the center of the vibration.

"Mengmeng?" Teng Junze was a little surprised, but soon understood her intention.

This seemingly weak girl actually has great courage and determination deep in her heart.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and his eyes were full of admiration.

Fan Mengmeng didn't say anything, but just walked forward silently.

She felt an inexplicable attraction, as if something was calling her.

Teng Junze followed closely behind her

The small animals around were originally fleeing in panic, but when they saw Fan Mengmeng and Teng Junze so calm, they actually stopped and looked at them curiously.

Even the birds that were originally restless stopped singing, as if waiting for something.

Suddenly, a crack appeared in the ground, and a black gas gushed out from the crack, carrying a disgusting fishy smell.

Fan Mengmeng and Teng Junze took a step back at the same time, staring at the crack vigilantly.

"Be careful!" Teng Junze pulled Fan Mengmeng behind him, his eyes fixed on the crack.

"What is that..." Fan Mengmeng's voice trembled a little, but she did not show excessive fear. Instead, she became more determined.

The cracks grew larger and larger, the black air became thicker and thicker, and a strong sense of oppression enveloped the entire valley.

Teng Junze felt his heartbeat getting faster and faster. He knew that a fierce battle was about to begin...

"Mengmeng," Teng Junze said in a low and firm voice, "No matter what happens, I will protect you."

Fan Mengmeng nodded, held Teng Junze's hand tightly, and looked firmly at the growing crack.

"I...believe in you too."

The black crack was like the bloody mouth of a giant beast, and countless tentacles like those soaked in ink rushed out from it, carrying a disgusting fishy smell, sweeping towards Teng Junze and Fan Mengmeng.

These tentacles are thick and powerful, covered with a sticky liquid that reflects a heart-pounding light in the sunlight.

Teng Junze's eyes flashed, and he drew the long sword from his waist. With a flash of cold light, several tentacles broke off.

The broken tentacles twisted wildly on the ground, spurting out black liquid and corroding the surrounding grass and trees.

However, more tentacles surged like a tide, surrounding Teng Junze.

Teng Junze has a nimble figure and sharp swordsmanship, and he can maneuver freely among the tentacles.

Every time the sword was swung, several tentacles broke.

However, these tentacles seemed endless. If you cut off one, more would emerge.

The surrounding land was turned into a mess by the tentacles, the trees were uprooted, and the originally peaceful valley instantly turned into a hell on earth.

"Mengmeng, be careful!" Teng Junze shouted with concern while resisting the attack of the tentacles.

Fan Mengmeng was not frightened by the scene before her.

She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

She knew that now was not the time to be afraid, she had to find a way to deal with these tentacles.

Her eyes darted around, searching for anything she could use.

Suddenly, Fan Mengmeng remembered an ancient book she had seen in the modern world, which recorded a potion that could restrain evil spirits.

She immediately closed her eyes, concentrated her mind, and used her ability to know everything about ancient and modern times to flip through the contents of the ancient book in her mind.

found it!

Fan Mengmeng suddenly opened her eyes, and a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.

She quickly found the necessary materials around her and began to prepare the medicine according to the records in ancient books.

As time passed, Teng Junze felt more and more stressed.

The tentacles became more and more numerous, and the attacks became more and more fierce.

His clothes had been corroded by the liquid from the tentacles, revealing several hideous wounds.

At this moment, Fan Mengmeng prepared the medicine.

She put the potion in a small bottle and sprinkled it on the tentacles without hesitation.

As soon as the potion touched the tentacles, it made a sizzling sound.

The tentacles shrank rapidly, as if burned by fire, and bursts of black smoke emerged.

"It's done!" Fan Mengmeng showed a proud smile on her face.

However, at this moment, a deafening roar came from deep underground...

Teng Junze grabbed Fan Mengmeng's hand and said in a deep voice, "Let's go!"

The black tentacles surged out more crazily, as if endless, carrying even more powerful force.

The potency of the potion gradually weakened, and the shrunken tentacles expanded again, becoming even more hideous and terrifying.

The roar from the ground sounded again, shaking the valley.

Teng Junze's sword dance became faster and faster, the sword light flashed like lightning, cutting off the attacking tentacles.

However, the number of tentacles was too great, and he gradually felt overwhelmed.

Sweat began to form on his forehead and his breathing became rapid.

There were more and more wounds on his body, and blood dripped from the hilt of the sword onto the ground, staining the ground beneath his feet red.

"Mengmeng, step back!" Teng Junze gritted his teeth and shouted harshly.

He waved his sword and tried his best to protect Fan Mengmeng behind him.

Fan Mengmeng looked at Teng Junze fighting bloody battles, her heart filled with self-blame and worry.

She knew that all this was because of her.

If she hadn't opened that space-time channel, none of this would have happened.

"No, I want to fight with you!" Fan Mengmeng said firmly.

She picked up a rock from the ground and smashed it hard at an incoming tentacle.

However, her strength was insignificant compared to these powerful tentacles.

A tentacle suddenly wrapped around Teng Junze's waist, strangling him tightly.

Teng Junze groaned, and the wounds on his body burst open again, and blood gushed out.

"Jun Ze!" Fan Mengmeng exclaimed, tears welling up in her eyes.

She desperately tried to break free from the tentacles, but was powerless.

More tentacles wrapped around Teng Junze, wrapping him tighter and tighter.

His body began to deform and his bones made a creaking sound.

His face became paler and paler, and his breathing became weaker and weaker.

"Mengmeng... let's go..." Teng Junze uttered a few words with difficulty, his voice so weak that it was almost inaudible.

Fan Mengmeng shook her head in despair, tears blurring her vision.

She held Teng Junze's hand tightly and refused to let go.

"No...I won't leave you..."

The air around them seemed to freeze, and only Teng Junze's painful groans and Fan Mengmeng's desperate cries echoed in the valley.

At this moment, Fan Mengmeng's fingers touched a jade pendant on Teng Junze's waist.

This jade pendant was a token of love given to her by Teng Junze, and she has always worn it close to her body.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to Fan Mengmeng's mind...

"Wait..." she muttered to herself.

Fan Mengmeng's fingertips trembled as she stroked the smooth surface of the jade pendant, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to her mind.

and many more!

She remembered that in addition to potions, ancient books also recorded a formation that could restrain this evil power!

Is it...

She didn't care about the danger or Teng Junze's safety, and pulled off the jade pendant from her waist.

This jade pendant is no ordinary object, but a family heirloom of Teng Junze, containing powerful spiritual power.

According to ancient records, this jade pendant is the key to setting up the formation!

Fan Mengmeng gritted her teeth, suppressed her inner fear, and quickly set up a formation around Teng Junze.

The black tentacles attacked her frantically, leaving bloody marks on her body, but she did not retreat at all.

She knew that this was her only chance and Teng Junze's only hope.

Time passed minute by minute, Fan Mengmeng's movements became faster and faster, and the jade pendant in her hand emitted a dazzling light.

Finally, the formation is completed!

As the last formation stone fell, the light of the jade pendant suddenly intensified, and a strong light shot out from the center of the formation, repelling all the surrounding tentacles.

Teng Junze's tightly wrapped body was finally freed, and he fell heavily to the ground, gasping for breath.

"Mengmeng..." Teng Junze looked at Fan Mengmeng gratefully, his eyes full of love and admiration.

This seemingly weak girl always bursts out with amazing strength at critical moments.

Fan Mengmeng smiled weakly, blood flowing down her forehead, but she didn't care at all.

She knew they were safe for now.

However, they all knew that this was just the beginning.

The deafening roar from deep underground sounded again, reminding them that the real danger was still ahead.

The two looked at each other, their eyes full of determination.

Teng Junze struggled to stand up and clenched the sword in his hand.

Fan Mengmeng also wiped the blood off her face and looked firmly at the crack in the ground.

"Let's go," Teng Junze said in a deep and powerful voice, "Let's go see what kind of monster is hiding under the ground."

Fan Mengmeng nodded and followed Teng Junze without hesitation, heading towards the dark crack...

"Wait," Fan Mengmeng suddenly grabbed Teng Junze, "I seem to feel..."
