Dapeng's Time Travel Life

Chapter 409 Lingxiao's Preparations for Battle and the Guidance of a Mysterious Prophecy

Inside the Lingxiao Pavilion, everyone busily and systematically cleaned up the battlefield and repaired the damaged defensive structures. Zhang Peng, however, was alone in a secret chamber, immersed in studying the mysterious spells used by the black-robed man. He infused the power of the Chaos Law into the remnants of the black-robed man's spells collected from the battlefield, attempting to unravel their mysteries.

Inside the secret chamber, runes flickered, and spiritual energy fluctuated constantly. Zhang Peng frowned, his forehead covered in sweat. He tried again and again, only to fail each time. This mysterious spell seemed to be protected by an invisible barrier; no matter how he used the laws of chaos, he could not fathom its core.

"This spell's structure is too complex, and it's filled with eerie dark power, unlike anything we've encountered before," Zhang Peng muttered to himself, a strong sense of urgency rising within him.

Meanwhile, outside Lingxiao Pavilion, Murong Yu, Liu Ruoli, and others led the cultivators to reinforce the defensive formation. Murong Yu wielded his longsword, channeling spiritual energy into the formation's core. Each sword strike carried the power of chaotic laws, making the formation even more stable.

"Everyone, give it your all! The men in black robes could attack again at any moment. We must be fully prepared!" Murong Yu shouted, his voice filled with fighting spirit.

Liu Ruoli played her jade flute, using the power of sound waves to adjust the frequency of the array's spiritual energy, making it more harmonious. "This defensive array concerns the safety of Lingxiao Pavilion and even the entire cultivation world. We must ensure it is foolproof." Her eyes were firm, and her fingers danced nimbly on the jade flute.

Pan Liwei and Cao Long led a group of cultivators to set up traps around the Lingxiao Pavilion. They used dark spiritual power to hide the traps in the shadows, waiting for the black-robed man to arrive.

“These traps may not be able to completely defeat the black-robed men, but they can at least cause them some trouble and buy us some time,” Pan Liwei said, a sly smile on his face.

Meanwhile, in the library of Lingxiao Pavilion, Xuan Chenzi and Chi Songzi were perusing ancient texts, attempting to find more clues about the mysterious magic used by the black-robed man and the current crisis. From the ancient scriptures, they discovered some mysterious prophecies related to the mysterious bead and the laws of chaos.

"This prophecy mentions that when the power of the Chaos Law and the Mysterious Bead fully awakens, it will trigger an apocalyptic war. But at the same time, a savior will also appear to lead the cultivation world through this crisis." Xuan Chenzi's voice trembled slightly as he stared intently at the words on the ancient book.

Chisongzi frowned, lost in thought: "Zhang Peng has mastered the laws of chaos and obtained the mysterious bead. Could he be the savior prophesied?"

The two hurriedly arrived at the secret chamber with the ancient book and told Zhang Peng about their discovery. Upon hearing this, Zhang Peng's heart stirred. He recalled some vague images he had sensed in the mysterious bead, which seemed to have some connection with this prophecy.

“Perhaps this is the key to our fight against the man in black robes,” Zhang Peng said, his eyes shining with hope. “I’ve always felt that there are deeper mysteries to be discovered about the power of the Chaos Law and the mysterious bead.”

Thus, Zhang Peng, Xuan Chenzi, and Chi Songzi began to study the clues in the mysterious prophecy and ancient texts together. They discovered that the prophecy also mentioned a mysterious location—the Source of Chaos. It is said to be the birthplace of the laws of chaos, containing boundless power. If Zhang Peng could go to the Source of Chaos and fully awaken the power of the laws of chaos and the mysterious bead, he might be able to completely defeat the man in black robes.

"The Source of Chaos... This place is too mysterious; no one has ever been there. How can we find it?" Chisongzi said with some worry.

Zhang Peng pondered for a moment, then suddenly thought of the mysterious old man he had encountered at the border. The old man's strength was unfathomable; perhaps he knew the location of the Source of Chaos.

“I think I have a solution,” Zhang Peng said. He told Xuan Chenzi and Chi Songzi about his encounter with the mysterious old man. “Let’s go find that senior; perhaps he can give us some guidance.”

Xuan Chenzi and Chi Songzi nodded in agreement. Zhang Peng then left Murong Yu, Liu Ruoli, and the others to continue guarding Lingxiao Pavilion, while he, Xuan Chenzi, and Chi Songzi embarked on a journey to find the mysterious old man.

They followed the route they had taken when they first encountered the old man. Finally, in a misty valley, they found the old man's trail. He was sitting on a huge rock, resting with his eyes closed.

"Senior, we meet again," Zhang Peng said respectfully.

The old man slowly opened his eyes, saw Zhang Peng and the others, and smiled slightly: "You've come. It seems you've encountered some difficulties."

Zhang Peng recounted the situation of the man in black robes and the mysterious prophecy to the old man in detail. After listening, the old man nodded: "The Source of Chaos is indeed a mysterious place. It is full of unknown dangers, but it also contains boundless power. If you want to go there, you must be fully prepared."

“Senior, we are willing to take this risk. Please tell us the location of the Source of Chaos,” Zhang Peng said firmly.

The old man pondered for a moment, then stretched out his finger and drew a beam of light in the air. Within the light appeared a mysterious map, marking the location of the Source of Chaos.

"This is a map to the source of chaos, but remember, the journey is fraught with danger, so proceed with caution," the old man said.

Zhang Peng took the map and said gratefully, "Thank you so much, senior. We will definitely be careful."

After bidding farewell to the old man, Zhang Peng and the others immediately returned to Lingxiao Pavilion. They handed the map to Murong Yu, Liu Ruoli, and others for review, and discussed their plan to travel to the Source of Chaos.

"We will encounter various dangers along the way, and the men in black robes may take the opportunity to attack us. Everyone must remain vigilant," Zhang Peng said.

Everyone nodded, indicating they were ready. Thus, amidst the anticipation and worry of the Lingxiao Pavilion members, Zhang Peng led Murong Yu, Liu Ruoli, and others on their journey to the Source of Chaos. They knew this would be a journey full of unknowns and challenges, but to save the cultivation world, they were determined to go…
