Chapter 124: Time of Human Crisis (Part 2)
Above the collapsed Sky-reaching Tower, within the eerily hovering arena.
The conflict in the western seating area of the audience was about to erupt.
However, Chen Yu in the middle of the arena was not focused on these developments; he only looked up at the "Chen Yu is awesome" fireworks, lost in thought.
Since he hadn't paid attention to where the fireworks were launched from the moment they ascended, he could only make a rough guess about where his family might be.
"It should be ...," Chen Yu narrowed his eyes, "that direction, right? It would be nice if another one could go off."
"Is this what they call a die-hard fan?" A gentle murmur came from beside him.
Chen Yu turned his head and saw Li Yao.
"Even at this point, you're still showing your support," Li Yao also turned her head, locking eyes with Chen Yu.

"Their brains are almost splattered out there," Chen Yu pointed towards the western battlefield where Transcendents and evil creatures fought, "and you're still here slacking off?"
"I can't get in there anymore," the girl explained, "joining now would only get me to the outskirts. But the outskirts are swarming with evil creatures, going there would be a death sentence."
"OK, it doesn't concern me anyway. Did you see where the fireworks were launched from just now?"
"First tell me, your 'Welcoming the Spring Surge,' who did you learn it from?"
"From you," Chen Yu replied quickly, "so where were the fireworks launched from?"
"First tell me, when did I teach you that move?"
"A few months ago," Chen Yu replied impatiently, "where were the fireworks launched from?"
The girl: "I didn't see it."
Chen Yu: "..."
"Whoosh—bang!"
While they were talking, four more fireworks shot into the sky.
As the fireworks dispersed, another four characters appeared—[My son is awesome]
The girl calmly pointed forward: "I saw it this time, at the 13 o'clock direction."
Chen Yu: "Thanks, I'm not blind."
"Bang!"
Knees bent, power surged, and his supernatural source burst forth; Chen Yu instantly leaped up, rushing towards the location of the fireworks launch.
But just a few hundred meters into his "flight," he suddenly thought of something and hurriedly stopped and braked. He turned to look towards a section of the arena, at the body of a large half-human-half-horse (Prince).
The body lay undignified in the mud, rocks, and bloodstains, with a title above its head reading [G[GL[].
Chen Yu didn't understand the Ka Xiu clan language, but he could guess it meant "dead corpse."
Deciding quickly, he ran back to the half-horse's body, took out "My sister's White Tooth," transmitted his powers, and made a rapid slash!
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh—"
The large half-horse's body was instantly cut into several pieces.
Next to him, Li Yao watched dumbfounded, tilting her head in confusion as her black hair cascaded down: "What are you doing?"
Chen Yu: "Making minced meat. (A Northern delicacy)"
The girl: "..."
After waiting for about ten seconds, the "corpse's" title changed.
From the shattered "meat pile," immediately five replicable skill bars ejected.
One of them was a conspicuous red.
"Nice!"
Chen Yu's eyes lit up.
Red, which signified Grade B!
"Li Yao, do you know the Ka Xiu clan language?" Chen Yu immediately turned to ask the girl.
"I know a bit. What's up?"
"Then I'll test you." Chen Yu squatted down, dipped his finger in the blood, and copied the name of that "Grade B" replicable skill on the ground, then asked, "What do these characters mean?"
"Hmm." The girl leaned forward, took a serious look, and said, "It's pronounced 'I-wu-e-ka-do.'"
Chen Yu: "..."
Chen Yu: "Are you kidding me? What does it mean?"
"Oh. It means 'infinite regeneration.'
'Damn! That's it!'
Chen Yu was instantly overjoyed and quickly reached out to poke the red replicable skill bar.
[GL[J]P"NL].K"?]
[GL[/J]P]
"Yes!"
Chen Yu clicked again.
[Confirm Copy]
[Successfully copied "Spirit of the Prairie" ability.]
A familiar warm sensation swept over his entire body.
Chen Yu didn't have time to enjoy it and looked at Li Yao in shock, "What did you translate? Isn't it 'Spirit of the Prairie'?"
The girl, raising a finger solemnly to explain, "In the culture of the Ka Xiu clan tribal alliance, they believe the prairie is 'endlessly bountiful' because it has a soul that causes grass to grow continually. If interpreted in our human culture, it means 'infinite regeneration.'
"Ah, I see," Chen Yu realized and then a bold idea suddenly sprang to mind, "Besides the Ka Xiu clan language, what other foreign languages are you fluent in?"
"I'm not fluent in any others. But I can make simple associations with about twenty more languages."
Chen Yu was shocked: "What language genius?"
The girl: "Ah?"
"Weren't you amnesiac? How do you still remember these?"
"I don't know either," the girl furrowed her delicate brows, "It seems I only forgot specific memories."
"Enough of that," scraping the words off the ground with his foot, Chen Yu no longer hesitated and immediately turned to run towards the audience seating, "Translator Ji, come with me."
Having been delayed by half a minute, his family was still in danger.
He needed to speed things up.
"Ah? Translator Ji? Are you talking about me?" The girl looked bewildered.
"Come on, hurry!"
Watching Chen Yu's retreating back, she hesitated briefly before choosing to follow him.
At this moment, she still had many questions she wanted to ask Chen Yu for clarification…
About a minute later.
After several consecutive jumps, Chen Yu finally spotted Chen, Ms. Chen, and Xiaoyu among the chaotic crowd.
Next to them stood a middle-aged man with the title [Lonely at the Top in Heaven and Earth].
"Xiaoyu! Over here!" Chen was the first to spot Chen Yu, and she jumped excitedly, "You finally made it!"
