Jackie Chan: The Supreme Sorcerer, invited by his father to come out of seclusion

Chapter 146 Preparing to Seal the Magic! Sealing the Demon!
He temporarily abandoned Jackie Chan, and with a swing of his massive rocky arm, he swept it towards Jade and Tru! The resulting gale almost made Jade lose her balance!
"Watch out!" Tru roared, his massive body leaping forward to shield Xiaoyu and her father in his arms behind him, while simultaneously chanting obscure and difficult ancient syllables rapidly!
The parchment scroll moved without wind as Tru recited it, emitting a faint yellow light!

Xiaoyu nervously aimed the small ring woven from plant roots at Di Kui!

Seal the magic!

They must complete this spell, which can only be effective temporarily, before the Earth Demon completely crushes them!
"Watch out!" Tru's low growl echoed through the dilapidated church. His massive body stood like a solid wall in front of Xiaoyu and her sleeping father.

The Earth Demon's rocky arm, shrouded in black energy, swept across with a whistling sound that tore through the air!

"Quickly chant the incantation!" Tru shouted urgently to the girl behind him, while rapidly uttering ancient and obscure syllables, the parchment scroll in his hand emitting a faint but firm yellow light.

Xiaoyu's face turned deathly pale as she watched the massive stone hand approach, but her eyes held a fierce determination. She quickly pulled a wilted wildflower from her pocket, which she had picked from who-knows-where, and then swiftly tore off a lock of her hair, binding the two together tightly.

Fear, like an icy tide, instantly engulfed Xiaoyu's limbs and bones, and her heart almost jumped out of her throat.

The enormous stone hand, radiating an aura of destruction, grew larger and larger in her eyes, as if it would crush them all into dust in the next second!

But looking at Tru's large but slightly strained back, and thinking of his unconscious father behind him, a surge of savage courage tore out from the depths of his fear!

No refunds! Absolutely not!

Xiao Yu clenched her teeth, her fingertips turning white from the force, and with trembling yet unusually firm hands, she raised the ridiculously simple "talisman".

"Earth Demon, heed my command!" The girl's clear voice carried an undeniable authority at this moment, piercing through Tru's incantation and the Earth Demon's roar!

She could feel the faint, warm magic of her father within her being frantically drawn out, surging towards her fingertips like a floodgate being opened.

The wilted little flower and the tangled hair began to emit a hazy, warm glow, echoing the light from the scroll in Tru's hand!
"Ancient power, grant... temporary peace!" Xiaoyu almost roared, each word exhausting all her strength.

Sweat soaked her forehead and clung to her pale cheeks, but her eyes shone brightly, burning with an unwavering determination!

"seal--!"

As the last two words fell, Xiaoyu pushed her arm forward suddenly!
The small token tied with hair and wildflowers transformed into a faint yet swift stream of light, crashing headlong into the terrifying stone hand of the Earth Demon!

The air seemed to freeze at that moment, and more dust fell from the church dome.

Tru's spell was completed at that very moment!

"Om-!"

A golden energy, far more dazzling than the parchment scroll itself, suddenly erupted from the "token" in Xiaoyu's hand! The energy was violent and intense, like a miniature sun, instantly illuminating the entire dimly lit church!

However, instead of transforming into sealing chains to bind Di Kui as expected, this energy veered off course like a cannonball that had gone out of control!
Its target was Jackie Chan, who was struggling to get up and was still wearing the divine armor!
"What?!" Tru's eyes widened, and his chanting stopped abruptly.

"Ugh!" Jackie Chan only had time to let out a short cry of surprise before the sudden golden energy slammed solidly into his chest!
"boom!"

The golden armor collided with the golden energy, producing a dull thud. Jackie Chan was blasted away again, crashing into the distant ruins and kicking up a cloud of dust. Although the armor protected him once more, the impact made his already turbulent blood and energy even more chaotic, causing him to see stars and completely lose his ability to move.

The golden energy was exhausted and dissipated into the air.

The sealing magic has utterly failed!
Inside the church, a deathly silence fell. Tru stared dumbfounded at Jackie Chan lying in the dust in the distance, then looked at the parchment scroll in his hand, its light now faded, his face filled with disbelief.

Xiaoyu was also dumbfounded. She stared blankly at her empty hands, completely unable to understand why this was happening.

A low, disdainful chuckle broke the silence.

The Earth Demon slowly lowered its outstretched arm, its burning dark green flames filled with contempt for the weak creatures before it.

“A foolish…trick.”

He raised his massive rocky hand again, this time not in a sweeping motion, but high up, aimed at everyone on the ground.

Thick black energy, like ink, spread from his palm, causing the ground to tremble violently. The remaining walls and dome of the church groaned under the weight, and stones and dust fell in a flurry.

"I will... bury... all of you!" The voice of the Earth Demon was like a final judgment.

An aura of destruction enveloped everyone.

Tru closed his eyes in despair, and Xiaoyu trembled with fear, instinctively hugging her still-sleeping father tightly.

at this time.

"Hmm... Ouch..."

A groan, thick with sleepiness, suddenly rang out.

In Tru's arms, the old man who had been sleeping like a rock tumbled his eyelids a few times and slowly... opened his eyes.

He rubbed his eyes groggily, yawned widely, and drool still clung to the corner of his mouth.

"Huh? Tru? Xiaoyu? What's wrong with you... Oh dear!"

The old man's gaze finally focused on the enormous rock demon emanating a terrifying aura ahead. The confusion on his face vanished instantly, replaced by extreme shock and vigilance!
"Earthly Demon?! What are you doing here?!" The old man's voice suddenly rose, all sleepiness gone.

"Dad! You're awake!" Xiaoyu cried out anxiously, as if grasping at a straw. "The sealing magic failed! It hit Uncle Long!"

"Failed?" The old man frowned, quickly scanned the scene, and saw Jackie Chan lying in the distance amidst the billowing smoke, as well as the giant hand of the Earth Demon about to fall. He immediately understood the critical situation.

"What formula are you using?!" the old man asked urgently.

Xiaoyu pointed to the spot where she had just thrown away the "token" and said somewhat aggrievedly, "My hair, and a flower! You mentioned it in the dream!"

"Snapped!"

Without even thinking, Dad slapped Xiaoyu on the back of the head.
