Chapter 8: The Emergence of Anomalies

At this moment, Ye Chen was already disheartened, only wishing for a swift death to escape the extreme suffering. But just then, he suddenly felt a cool and gentle sensation emanating from his chest, which then rapidly spread throughout his entire body.

Some memories involuntarily surfaced in his mind

Ye Chen found life in a desperate situation, no longer having the time to consider why such a peculiar circumstance had arisen, only striving to make himself forget the ice-like pain, while resolutely guarding the faint warmth in his heart.

At the moment Ye Chen fell backward, two extreme energies instantly transformed his entire meridian system into a battlefield of struggle. The two forces continuously clashed and contended, and the pain was akin to thousands of fine blades slicing through his meridians and internal organs. Had he been able to speak, he would have already cried out in agony.

He is a company commander of a sniper unit and also the champion of the military sniper competition. While he was carrying out a mission, his family heirloom jade pendant suddenly emitted light, and then he found himself inexplicably transported to this world or rather this era

After a couple of breaths, Ye Chen felt as if the pain was gradually leaving him. His senses began to recover bit by bit, and he started to feel the existence of his body and limbs.

At this moment, Yu Daoxiang, Si Luoyi, and Guo Wuwei formed a triangular encirclement around Ye Chen, their faces filled with astonishment and uncertainty as they watched Ye Chen endure excruciating pain, yet he had not completely lost consciousness. Given their previous encounter, the three of them dared not touch Ye Chen even slightly, nor did they continue to engage in combat with one another.

However, he is now trembling all over in pain, having endured this extreme suffering.

The warmth gradually expanded, slowly spreading through the meridians to various parts of the body. Ye Chen's parents were one a Western medicine practitioner and the other a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. Influenced by them since childhood, he had dabbled in traditional Chinese medicine and understood that this warmth seemed to flow from the Ren and Du meridians, beginning to spread through the meridians throughout the body.

Then, the jade pendants in their arms suddenly emitted two beams of light, one black and one white, directed towards the star jade pendant on Ye Chen's chest

In excruciating pain that pierced to the core, Ye Chen fell backward to the ground

... ...

In a state of confusion, Ye Chen suddenly felt an extremely cold and an incomparably hot inexplicable force appear on his chest, occupying half of his body on each side, beginning to flow and operate in a bizarre manner that he could not comprehend.

Two extreme sensations suddenly surged through his entire body. The left side of Ye Chen's body felt as if it were frozen to the bone, completely encased in ice, losing all sensation. In contrast, the right side felt as if it were placed in a great fire, excruciatingly hot and painful; had Ye Chen not been unable to make a sound at that moment, he would have already cried out in agony. However, strangely, these two extreme energies seemed to only occur within his body, without any trace of external leakage or spread, and his clothing showed no signs of being affected.

And this small stream of warm and comfortable air will likely only cause him to suffer more in life

This situation persisted for two or three breaths of time, during which Si Luoyi and Guo Wuwei were filled with horror and despair, until they finally discovered the reason and hurriedly released their grip on Ye Chen's hand

In the depths of this tragic abyss, a sudden warmth emerged. Although the pain was still unbearable, and one wished to die quickly to escape the sea of suffering, the mind gradually became clearer. There was a faint sense that the warmth originated from the very center of the heart, gradually spreading towards the heart's veins

Si Luoyi and Guo Wuwei simultaneously felt a tremendous吸力 emanating from the sun and moon jade pendants in their arms, causing the true energy within their dantians to involuntarily flow towards their respective jade pendants.

At that moment, a marvelous event occurred

Ye Chen felt a sudden explosion within his body, followed immediately by a wave of excruciating pain. It would have been better if he had simply fainted, but fate did not comply with his wishes; for some reason, he remained in a state of consciousness. At that moment, two opposing energies, one searing hot and the other frigidly cold, suddenly erupted from within him, and Ye Chen vaguely heard three gasps of astonishment from nearby.

This warmth is precisely situated between the icy cold and the scorching heat, resembling a balance or fusion of the two. It also appears to be a new entity derived from the interplay of these two extreme energies

It is unclear how much time had passed when Ye Chen suddenly fell to the ground, rolling down a slope and ultimately tumbling into a large river, where he lost consciousness.

Ye Chen burst out of the temple, entered the dense forest, collided with countless trees, and then charged into a vast grassland

At this moment, all of Ye Chen's senses had ceased to function; he could neither see nor hear. It was as if he had been thrown into a void devoid of everything, unaware of his whereabouts. What exactly had happened? Accompanying him were waves of increasingly intense injury and pain.

Previously, as Si Luoyi and Guo Wuwei released their hold, the celestial star jade pendant hanging on Ye Chen's chest had dimmed and disappeared. However, at this moment, it suddenly began to shimmer with starlight again

However, after his inexplicable arrival in this era, all of this has become completely unrelated to him. Now, he must endure extreme suffering and ultimately die

However, Ye Chen felt no joy in his heart. Although he did not understand martial arts or any form of Taoist techniques, he could faintly sense that this slight warmth could only preserve his life for a limited time. His body, having been ravaged by the two extreme energies before, had either frozen into dead flesh or been roasted into cooked meat. Almost all of his bodily functions had deteriorated, and he had now become an extremely paralyzed person, barely clinging to life.

During this process, after countless alternations of cold and heat within Ye Chen's body, his body surprisingly became somewhat numb, devoid of any sensation

This matter now weighs heavily on Ye Chen's mind, and he only wishes to cry out loud. However, the tears have yet to flow; either they are evaporated or already frozen. He originally had his beloved fiancée, with whom he was already engaged, and they were to be married in three months, beginning a life of happiness.

This great river, with its muddy yellow waters, is indeed the Yellow River, the largest river in the north

... ...

Ye Chen crashed through the wall, leaving a human-shaped gap, and ran forward

Boom

However, at this moment, if he wished to get up and escape, it would still be an unattainable task

Immediately, Yu Daoxiang felt an immense force suddenly emanating from Ye Chen's body. She barely had time to let out a delicate cry before being propelled outward, crashing through the door of the hall behind her and landing on the statue.

Boom

Ye Chen involuntarily sprang up from the ground, shouting incoherently, and rushed in a frenzied manner towards a certain direction
