Chapter 187 Reinforcements Arrive, Turning the Tide of Battle
Elder Xuanfeng appeared, radiating a powerful yet peaceful aura that contrasted sharply with the sinister atmosphere of the dark forces. Clad in flowing white robes, his white hair danced wildly in the wind, his eyes held a profound and all-knowing depth. At this moment, he hovered above Su City, like a god descending from heaven, dispelling the gloom in everyone's hearts.
"Elder Xuanfeng!" Zhang Peng exclaimed, both surprised and delighted. He knew that Elder Xuanfeng's arrival was a great boost to their morale.
Elder Xuanfeng nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping across the battlefield before finally settling on the mysterious figure. "Hmph, the forces of darkness, how dare they stir up trouble right under my nose!" His voice wasn't loud, but it resonated across the battlefield like a booming bell, each word carrying a powerful deterrent force.
The mysterious man's expression changed drastically. He sensed the unfathomable power emanating from Elder Xuanfeng, and a strong sense of unease welled up within him. However, he was unwilling to give up so easily, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Xuanfeng, don't think you can stop me just because you've come. Today, Su City will be the burial ground of the Zhang family!"
After saying that, the mysterious man unleashed all his power, and dark energy gathered in his hands into a huge black energy ball. The energy ball contained an aura of destruction, as if it could raze the entire city of Su to the ground.
Seeing this, Elder Xuanfeng remained calm. He gently raised his hand, and a white ball of light radiating a soft glow appeared in his palm. Although small, the ball of light contained boundless vitality and hope, forming a stark contrast with the mysterious man's black energy sphere.
"Break!" Elder Xuanfeng shouted softly, and a white ball of light shot out instantly, flying towards the black energy sphere. The two collided in mid-air, unleashing a deafening roar. Powerful energy fluctuations spread in all directions, whipping up a gust of wind that sent soldiers on the battlefield staggering about.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhang Peng adjusted his state. He circulated his spiritual energy, fusing the power of the Dragon Ball, the five elements, and the power of the laws he had comprehended in battle. After a fierce battle with the mysterious man, he gained new insights into the control of power, and at this moment, his strength showed faint signs of breaking through to the early stage of the Golden Core realm.
"Lin Wan'er, Xia Lijuan, let's go together!" Zhang Peng shouted, charging towards the dark forces. Lin Wan'er and Xia Lijuan exchanged a glance, nodded in response, and followed closely behind Zhang Peng.
Lin Wan'er used wood-based magic to summon countless vines, which then entangled the soldiers of the dark forces. The vines shimmered with green light and contained powerful life force, causing the soldiers caught in them to scream in agony.
Xia Lijuan was not to be outdone. She unleashed her most proficient spell, and beams of icy blue light shot from her hands, exploding in the dark forces and instantly freezing a large number of enemies.
Seeing Zhang Peng and his men charge into battle, the Zhang family disciples were greatly encouraged. Wielding their weapons and shouting, they charged towards the dark forces, engaging in fierce close combat with the enemy.
On the battlefield, shouts of battle and the clash of spells mingled together, and smoke filled the air. The battle between Elder Xuanfeng and the mysterious man had entered a fierce stage. The mysterious man continuously unleashed forbidden dark techniques, attempting to break through Elder Xuanfeng's defenses, but each time Elder Xuanfeng easily evaded them.
"Your dark power is futile before my power of light!" Elder Xuanfeng's voice was filled with majesty. He unleashed a move called "Universal Light," and a dazzling beam of light shot from his hand, illuminating the entire battlefield. Wherever the light touched, the dark forces dissipated, and the soldiers covered their eyes in agony, losing their fighting ability.
The mysterious man watched all this in horror, knowing he had met a formidable foe. "Hmph, you're lucky today. Next time, I won't let you off!" Seeing the situation was turning against him, the mysterious man prepared to flee.
"Trying to run? Not so easy!" Zhang Peng sensed the mysterious man's intention and unleashed his full power, chasing after him. With his efforts, he finally caught up with the mysterious man.
"Die!" Zhang Peng roared, unleashing a strike that combined multiple powers. Golden light, carrying the force of a whirlwind, struck the mysterious man. The mysterious man let out a scream, his body crashing heavily to the ground.
However, just when Zhang Peng thought the battle was about to end, the mysterious man suddenly got up from the ground, his eyes flashing with a crazed light. "Since I can't survive, you won't have it easy either!" He used his last bit of strength to detonate the dark energy within his body.
"Not good, get out of the way!" Zhang Peng shouted, quickly casting a spiritual energy shield to protect himself and those around him.
With a deafening roar, dark energy exploded, the powerful impact sending Zhang Peng and the others flying. Zhang Peng felt a sudden darkness before his eyes and lost consciousness.
