Dapeng's Time Travel Life

Chapter 446 The Battle for Spirit Fruits and the Mysterious Inheritance

The dark shadow pounced on the Chaos Spirit Fruit like lightning, its speed catching Zhang Peng off guard. When he looked closely, he saw it was a spirit fox radiating a ghostly glow. This fox was small in size, but possessed a pair of bright, intelligent eyes that gleamed with cunning and greed. Its tail swayed gently, each movement generating a fluctuation of spiritual energy, clearly indicating it was no ordinary demonic beast.

Zhang Peng swiftly unleashed the "Law Cage," its multicolored light instantly enveloping the Chaos Spirit Fruit and the spirit fox. Trapped within the cage, the spirit fox let out a sharp cry, its claws scratching at the cage's light in an attempt to escape. "Hmph, this Chaos Spirit Fruit is not something you can covet," Zhang Peng said coldly, slowly approaching the cage to collect the Chaos Spirit Fruit.

The spirit fox seemed to understand Zhang Peng's words. A hint of resentment flashed in its eyes, and it suddenly opened its mouth, spewing out a cloud of black smoke. This smoke carried a strong stench of decay, quickly spreading and eroding the light of the "Law Prison." Zhang Peng's expression changed slightly; he hadn't expected the spirit fox to possess such a bizarre method. He immediately activated the chaotic law power of his mid-stage Nascent Soul realm to strengthen the prison's defenses, and simultaneously unleashed "Chaotic Myriad Manifestations Break," converging the chaotic law power into a gigantic chaotic sword, slashing towards the spirit fox.

Sensing a deadly threat, the spirit fox suddenly became ethereal, transforming into a streak of light that pierced through the "Cage of Laws" defense and lunged at the Chaos Spirit Fruit once more. Seeing this, Zhang Peng immediately used his movement technique, instantly appearing before the Chaos Spirit Fruit and tightly protecting it behind him.

"Little guy, you still won't give up?" Zhang Peng looked at the spirit fox, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes. He knew that although the spirit fox was not as strong as him, its methods were strange, and he could not let his guard down.

The spirit fox circled Zhang Peng rapidly, searching for an opportunity to attack. Suddenly, it lashed out with its tail, sending several sharp blades of spiritual energy hurtling towards Zhang Peng. Zhang Peng activated his "Chaos Shield," deflecting the blades. Seizing the opportunity, he unleashed his "Chaos Sovereign's Judgment," a five-colored beam of light carrying a world-destroying force shooting towards the spirit fox.

The spirit fox, unable to dodge in time, was struck by the light, letting out a miserable cry as its body slowly collapsed. Just as Zhang Peng thought the battle was over and was preparing to harvest the Chaos Spirit Fruit, the spirit fox's body suddenly emitted a beam of light, and an ancient jade box appeared beside it. The jade box was covered with mysterious runes, radiating an ancient and powerful aura.

Zhang Peng's heart stirred. He circulated his mid-stage Nascent Soul spiritual power, attempting to open the jade box. However, the runes on the jade box flashed with intense light, preventing his spiritual sense from entering. He tried several times but could not open the jade box.

"This jade box must hold some secret," Zhang Peng muttered to himself. He recalled Su Ling, the master of spiritual plants he had met in the Spirit Valley; perhaps he knew the secret of the jade box. So, Zhang Peng put away the Chaos Spirit Fruit and the jade box and returned to the Spirit Valley.

When Zhang Peng found Su Ling, she was intently tending to his spiritual plants. Seeing Zhang Peng return, Su Ling smiled slightly: "Young man, you're back. Did you find the Chaos Spiritual Fruit?"

Zhang Peng took out the Chaos Spirit Fruit and the jade box and said, "Senior, the Chaos Spirit Fruit has been found, but when I was collecting it, I encountered this spirit fox. After it died, it left behind this jade box, but I cannot open it."

Su Ling took the jade box and carefully examined the runes on it, her expression gradually becoming solemn. "The runes on this jade box are ancient sealing runes, which must contain a great secret. Although I know some knowledge about ancient runes, the seal on this jade box is too powerful, and I cannot open it."

Zhang Peng felt somewhat disappointed, but he didn't give up. He decided to stay in the Spirit Valley for a while, studying the runes on the jade box with Su Ling. During this time, Zhang Peng studied the runes while simultaneously cultivating the Laws of Chaos with the power of the Chaos Spirit Fruit. The power of the Chaos Spirit Fruit was gentle yet powerful; each absorption deepened his understanding of the Laws of Chaos.

As Zhang Peng gained a deeper understanding of the laws of chaos, he discovered a new interpretation of the runes on the jade box. He attempted to decipher the runes using the power of the laws of chaos, and finally, the runes on the jade box began to glow and slowly opened.

The moment the jade box was opened, a beam of light shot into the sky, and a phantom figure slowly emerged. This figure wore an ancient robe, had a dignified face, and eyes that shone with boundless wisdom. "I am the ancient great being Lingxuzi, and it is my destiny to meet you today," the phantom figure said slowly.

Zhang Peng quickly bowed and said, "I am honored to meet you, senior. I hope you will give me some guidance."

Ling Xuzi nodded slightly: "You were able to open this jade box, which means we are destined to meet. I left this legacy in the hope of finding a destined person to pass on all that I have learned in my life."

As he spoke, Ling Xuzi produced an ancient book radiating light and a bead shimmering with seven-colored light in his hand. "This ancient book records my understanding of the laws of chaos and some powerful spells, while this seven-colored spirit bead contains my life's worth of spiritual power. If you can absorb it, your strength will greatly increase."

Zhang Peng excitedly accepted the ancient book and the seven-colored spirit pearl. He could feel the powerful knowledge contained in the ancient book and the surging spiritual power in the seven-colored spirit pearl. "Thank you for your kindness, senior. I will certainly live up to your expectations."

Ling Xuzi's figure gradually disappeared, leaving behind the words: "Remember, power is for protection, not for killing."

Zhang Peng found a quiet spot in the Spirit Valley and began studying ancient texts, absorbing the spiritual power of the Seven-Colored Spirit Pearl. With the help of the ancient texts, his understanding of the laws of chaos reached a new level, and the spiritual power of the Seven-Colored Spirit Pearl also greatly enhanced his strength.

However, just as he was immersed in the joy of cultivation, a powerful surge of spiritual energy suddenly came from outside the Spirit Valley, as if a great battle was about to break out...
