Dapeng's Time Travel Life

Chapter 162 Fierce Battle in Full Swing, Turning Point Appears

Zhang Peng and the man in black robes clashed fiercely in the air. Golden light and black magic collided, unleashing deafening sounds. Each exchange triggered a storm of spiritual energy, causing the surrounding trees to sway and leaves to flutter everywhere.

Li Ming wielded his longsword, weaving through the dark forces like a black lightning bolt. His swordsmanship was fierce and ruthless, each strike accompanied by a whistling sound, forcing his enemies to retreat steadily. Lin Wan'er stood behind, her hands rapidly forming hand seals, continuously unleashing wood-based spells. Thick vines sprouted from the ground, coiling around the members of the dark forces like giant pythons, restricting their movements.

However, the forces of darkness were numerous and their strength should not be underestimated. Despite Zhang Peng and his companions' valiant resistance, they gradually began to feel their strength waning. Zhang Peng's spiritual energy was greatly depleted; his forehead was covered in sweat, and his breathing became rapid. Li Ming also sustained several wounds, his clothes stained with blood, but he still gritted his teeth and persevered.

The man in black robes noticed their exhaustion and a sinister smile appeared on his face: "Hmph, you think you can stop us? Today, Qingfeng Sect will perish!" With that, he raised his hands high, gathering a powerful dark force to form a huge black sphere of light, which he then smashed towards Zhang Peng.

Zhang Peng's heart tightened. He knew the power of this attack was immense, and if he were hit, the consequences would be unimaginable. He concentrated all his energy, mobilizing the power of the Dragon Ball within his body to form a golden shield in front of him.

The black orb of light slammed heavily against the shield with a deafening roar. The shield trembled violently, and its light dimmed. Zhang Peng's body was thrown backward by the powerful impact, and a trickle of blood escaped from the corner of his mouth.

"Zhang Peng!" Li Ming and Lin Wan'er were extremely anxious upon seeing this. They rushed towards Zhang Peng without hesitation, trying to share the burden with him.

Just then, a melodious bell rang out from within Qingfeng Gate. The bell's sound was crisp and pleasant, yet it contained a powerful force, like a clear spring flowing into everyone's hearts, invigorating their weary bodies and spirits.

Zhang Peng's heart skipped a beat. He recognized the sound as coming from the Qingfeng Sect's most prized treasure—the Qingxin Bell. Legend had it that the Qingxin Bell possessed the miraculous power to purify evil forces. Was it about to work its magic?

Sure enough, as the bell rang, the dark power gathered by the black-robed man began to fluctuate. The originally condensed black sphere gradually became unstable, and cracks appeared on its surface.

The man in black robes paled. He stared in horror at the black orb of light in his hand, trying to regain control of it. However, the power of the Heart-Cleansing Bell was too great, and his efforts were in vain.

"This...how is this possible?" the man in black robes exclaimed in horror.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhang Peng unleashed his full power, perfectly fusing the power of the Dragon Ball with his own spiritual energy, condensing it into a dazzling golden beam of light that shot towards the man in black robes.

Li Ming and Lin Wan'er were not to be outdone. They each unleashed their strongest attacks, coordinating with Zhang Peng's beam of light, to attack the man in black robes.

Under the combined attack of the three, the man in black robes finally could not withstand it. He let out a scream as he was struck by the golden beam of light, his body flying backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground.

With the black-robed man's fall, the dark forces instantly descended into chaos. Losing their leader, they began to scatter in all directions. Seeing this, Zhang Peng and his men pressed their advantage, driving the dark forces out of Qingfeng Sect's territory.

After this fierce battle, Qingfeng Sect was temporarily out of danger. But Zhang Peng knew that this was just a probing attack by the dark forces, and they would certainly not let it go; an even greater crisis was yet to come.

Elder Xuanfeng and the other elders rushed over and, seeing that Zhang Peng and the others were safe and sound, smiled with relief.

"Zhang Peng, you did a great job. If it weren't for your valiant resistance, coupled with the power of the Qingxin Bell, Qingfeng Sect would have been in grave danger today," Elder Xuanfeng said approvingly.

Zhang Peng bowed slightly and said, "This is the result of everyone's joint efforts. I just did what I was supposed to do."

Li Ming wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, "That's right, our Qingfeng Sect is not to be trifled with!"

Lin Wan'er looked at Zhang Peng with concern and said, "Zhang Peng, you're injured. Go back and rest."

Zhang Peng nodded; he was indeed extremely tired. But he knew that in this perilous world of cultivation, rest was only temporary; they had to recover their strength as soon as possible to meet the next challenge.
