Dapeng's Time Travel Life

Chapter 396 Border Situation and the Hidden Cards of a Mysterious Force

Zhang Peng and his group traveled day and night, finally arriving at the border of the cultivation world. The atmosphere here was oppressive and tense, with a chilling aura permeating the air. The distant mountains, shrouded in gloom, appeared particularly sinister, as if concealing endless dangers.

The cultivators on patrol were already waiting there. Upon seeing Zhang Peng and his group, they immediately stepped forward to report: "Lord Zhang Peng, the black-robed men have been frequently appearing in this area recently. Their actions are very strange, as if they are searching for something. Moreover, their strength seems to have increased considerably."

Zhang Peng nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping around. The power of the Chaos Laws quietly circulated within his body, attempting to sense the presence of the black-robed men. "Everyone, proceed with caution. These black-robed men are definitely not benevolent. We cannot afford to be careless in the slightest."

The group dispersed and began searching the border region. Zhang Peng, relying on his unique perception based on the laws of chaos, quickly located one of the black-robed men's strongholds. It was a cave hidden deep in a valley, its entrance shrouded in a layer of black mist, faintly emanating an evil aura.

"It's right here," Zhang Peng said in a low voice. "Everyone get ready, let's go in and take a look."

The group cautiously approached the cave. As soon as they stepped into the entrance, a surge of black spiritual energy rushed towards them like a tide, attempting to repel them. Zhang Peng swung his divine sword, unleashing a five-colored sword aura that dispelled the black spiritual energy.

Upon entering the cave, they found it dark and damp, with eerie lights flickering on the walls. Sensing their intrusion, the black-robed figures surged forth from all directions, surrounding Zhang Peng and his companions. The leader, his gaze cold, fixed on the divine sword in Zhang Peng's hand, a glint of greed in his eyes.

"Zhang Peng, I didn't expect you to dare come. Today, none of you will leave alive!" the leader of the black-robed men said viciously.

Zhang Peng sneered, "You bunch of evil bastards, today is your doomsday!"

The two sides instantly engaged in fierce combat. The black-robed figure unleashed various bizarre spells, with black beams of spiritual energy and sharp black blades raining down on Zhang Peng and his companions like a storm. Zhang Peng employed a defensive technique combining the laws of chaos with a divine artifact, forming an indestructible shield of multicolored light around him, blocking all attacks.

Murong Yu unleashed the "Chaotic Breeze Sword," a sword technique incorporating the fluidity of the laws of chaos and the sharpness of the Breeze Breaking Clouds Sword. Each strike carried immense power, repelling the approaching black-robed figures. Liu Ruoli played her jade flute, and the sound waves of "Chaotic Spiritual Sound Breaking" echoed through the cave. Upon hearing the sound waves, the black-robed figures experienced disruptions in their spiritual energy circulation, causing their attacks to slow down.

Pan Liwei and Cao Long unleashed "Chaotic Dark Protection," their dark spiritual power merging and combining with the power of the chaotic laws to form a black shield protecting their companion behind them. At the same time, they launched attacks intermittently, their dark spiritual power transforming into black tentacles that lashed out at the black-robed man.

The battle intensified, with numerous black-robed figures whose strength was not to be underestimated. Although Zhang Peng and his companions had greatly increased their strength, they gradually began to feel their stamina waning as the battle continued.

"These black-robed men seem to be stalling for time. What are they plotting?" Zhang Peng thought to himself, remaining vigilant as he parried their attacks while using the power of the Chaos Laws to sense his surroundings.

Suddenly, he sensed a powerful energy fluctuation emanating from the depths of the cave, as if something powerful was awakening. Zhang Peng's expression changed drastically: "This is bad! They're awakening some kind of powerful force! We must stop them immediately!"

Upon hearing this, everyone intensified their attacks. Zhang Peng unleashed the strongest strike of his Chaos Law Sword Technique, "Chaos Shattering," as five-colored sword energy, like a blooming lotus flower, swept towards the black-robed man, instantly repelling those around him.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhang Peng used the "Chaotic Sky-Splitting Step" to instantly arrive at the depths of the cave. There, on a huge black stone platform, sat a crystal ball emitting an eerie light, within which surged powerful dark energy.

"Is this their trump card?" Zhang Peng frowned. He could sense that the dark power contained in the crystal ball was extremely strong, and once it was fully awakened, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Just as Zhang Peng was about to destroy the crystal ball, the leader of the black-robed men suddenly appeared, holding a black staff with a ghostly blue flame flickering at its tip. "Zhang Peng, you think you can ruin our plans so easily? You're too naive!"

The leader of the black-robed men waved his staff, and a pillar of black flame shot towards Zhang Peng. Zhang Peng quickly dodged to the side, and the pillar of flame struck the wall beside him, causing a violent explosion.

"Everyone be careful, this leader of the black-robed men is very strong!" Zhang Peng shouted.

Murong Yu, Liu Ruoli, and others quickly arrived to provide support. Murong Yu unleashed the ultimate move of the "Chaotic Breeze Sword," "Chaotic Breeze Break," a sword aura imbued with chaotic power slashing towards the black-robed leader. The black-robed leader waved his staff, black flames forming a shield that blocked the sword aura.

Liu Ruoli unleashed the strongest sound wave of "Chaotic Spiritual Sound Break," which, like an invisible blade, pierced towards the black-robed leader's mind. The black-robed leader's expression changed, and he unleashed a peculiar spiritual energy fluctuation in an attempt to resist the sound wave attack.

Taking advantage of the black-robed leader's distraction, Zhang Peng wielded his divine sword, unleashing the strongest sword technique combining the laws of chaos and the divine weapon: "Chaotic Divine Weapon Annihilation Slash." A five-colored light containing boundless power, carrying an aura of world-destroying destruction, slashed towards the black-robed leader and the crystal ball.

The leader of the black-robed men felt an unprecedented threat. He exerted all his strength, gathering all his black flames in front of him to form a solid defensive barrier. At the same time, he also tried to awaken the dark power within the crystal ball, hoping to use its power to resist Zhang Peng's attack.

"Boom!" The multicolored light collided violently with the black flame barrier, producing a deafening roar. The powerful energy impact shook the entire cave, sending rocks raining down...
