Ye Ying clenched her fists, her muscles tensing like a fully drawn bow, ready to face any crisis that might come.

Ji Wuchen, standing to the side, also dared not let his guard down. He tried his best to calm himself down, and his originally somewhat dazed eyes gradually became firm, as if he had regained his former composure and decisiveness.

Then, they followed closely behind the little white fox Tianyao who was leading the way, carefully traversing a dense, almost suffocating forest, and finally arrived at a relatively open area.

However, when their eyes fell upon the scene before them, they both gasped in shock—

In the very center of the open space, a giant vortex suddenly appeared. Its deep darkness seemed capable of devouring everything in the world, and the surrounding space was distorted and deformed by its presence, exuding a terrifying and mysterious aura that sent chills down one's spine.

"This...this is a spatial rift!" Ji Wuchen exclaimed in surprise, his voice betraying a hint of bewilderment and doubt. It seemed he questioned why a spatial rift should exist in this realm.

He said to Ye Ying, "We must leave this place immediately. If we hesitate even slightly, we will be caught up in this and forcibly teleported to another unknown space. At that time, our fate will be uncertain..."

At this moment, Ji Wuchen's heart was filled with an unprecedented fear, as if the whole world was about to collapse.

He couldn't imagine how dark and lonely his life would become after losing Ye Ying again.

Recalling the arduous journey he had taken in searching for Ye Ying, he couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.

It should be noted that before going to the mortal realm, Ji Wuchen resolutely chose to relinquish most of his magical power in the celestial realm.

This was not an impulsive act, but rather stemmed from an ancient rule passed down from the celestial realm—any immortal descending to earth must abide by this regulation.

Even those who are sons of the Heavenly Emperor are no exception.

It is even less likely that they will receive extra leniency or favors because of their special status.

Here, all immortals are treated equally.

For this reason, Ji Wuchen had to rely on the mysterious magic weapon bestowed upon him by the Heavenly Empress—his beloved mother—to successfully tear through space and descend to the mortal realm to find his beloved Ye Ying.

Although Ye Ying has temporarily lost her past memories, Ji Wuchen firmly believes that one day she will regain those beautiful memories.

At this moment, the situation is extremely urgent!

Without hesitation, Ji Wuchen turned around and tightly grasped Ye Ying's small, tender hand, preparing to quickly lead her away from this dangerous place.

However, fate always seems to like to play tricks on people.

Just as they were about to escape, a huge, ferocious tentacle suddenly shot out from the depths of the vortex, baring its fangs and claws as it lunged straight at them!

Faced with this sudden turn of events, Ji Wuchen's only concern was for Ye Ying's safety.

Perhaps he had already sensed the potential crisis, but in the face of love, everything else seemed unimportant...

"Watch out!" Ye Ying shouted, brandishing her long whip as she slashed fiercely at the tentacles like a shooting star.

The whip flashed through the air, instantly binding several tentacles tightly together.

However, before they could even catch their breath, more tentacles kept emerging from the enormous vortex, seemingly without end.
