Shocking Secrets of the Celestial Realm

Jasmine charged headlong toward the source of the dark power, her microscopic energy surging violently as if to tear apart the chaotic darkness. The other three followed closely behind. Lin Qing pointed his sword forward, his blood and qi burning fiercely like crimson flames; Qin Feng rapidly formed hand seals, spatial rifts appearing and disappearing around him, exuding a mysterious and dangerous aura; Ye Lan held her jade flute horizontally, natural elements gathering around her: water condensed into ice blades, wind howled into sharp blades, fire leaped into waves of flame, and earth formed a thick barrier, ready to resist the invasion of darkness at any moment.

The closer they got to the core of the dark power, the more overwhelming the oppressive feeling became, like an invisible giant hand trying to crush them. "This dark power is even stronger than we imagined!" Lin Qing gritted his teeth, large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, his longsword trembling slightly, yet still steadily pointing towards the darkness.

Qin Feng opened a spatial rift, attempting to disrupt the operation of the dark power with spatial force. However, the moment the rift appeared, it was brutally twisted and devoured by the dark power. A powerful backlash shook him so badly that his blood surged, and he staggered back several steps. "This... how is this possible!" Qin Feng was filled with astonishment, and an unprecedented fear surged in his heart. He had never encountered such a powerful and bizarre force before.

Ye Lan waved her jade flute, unleashing a full-force attack from the natural elements. Ice blades, wind blades, flames, and earthen walls surged towards the dark power, but the darkness was like a bottomless abyss, instantly swallowing all these attacks. "The natural elements are suppressed so thoroughly, what should we do?" Ye Lan's voice carried a hint of despair, her eyes filled with anxiety.

In this desperate situation, Jasmine suppressed her inner fear, closed her eyes, and maximized her perception of microscopic energy. In the chaotic vortex of consciousness, she was like a lone boat struggling against turbulent waves. Finally, she perceived the hidden and subtle correspondence between the dark power and the Qi, the twelve meridians, and the energy centers of the eight extraordinary meridians in the human body.

Jasmine discovered that the twelve meridians of the human body are like twelve rushing rivers, each corresponding to a different organ and bodily function. The Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin is like the morning mist, gentle and nourishing, closely connected to the respiratory system; the Large Intestine Meridian of Hand-Yangming is like a surging torrent, propelling the digestion of food and the elimination of waste; the Stomach Meridian of Foot-Yangming is like a vast plain, bearing the absorption and transformation of nutrients; the Spleen Meridian of Foot-Taiyin is like the stable earth, governing digestion and blood, nourishing the body's Qi and blood… The Eight Extraordinary Meridians are like hidden currents beneath these rivers, mysterious and powerful. The Governing Vessel is like the Milky Way in the sky, gathering the body's Yang Qi and guiding the vitality of life; the Conception Vessel is like the Mother River of the earth, nourishing the body's Yin fluids and nurturing the gentleness of life; the Penetrating Vessel is like a surging tide, regulating the Qi and blood of the twelve meridians, containing boundless power…

Suppressing her fear, she began to guide her own energy, circulating it through her meridians and the eight extraordinary meridians in a specific rhythm. She started with the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin, guiding the microscopic energy to flow slowly like a babbling brook, then through the Large Intestine Meridian of Hand-Yangming, the Stomach Meridian of Foot-Yangming... With each meridian she traversed, she could feel the subtle changes occurring in the connection between herself and the dark forces.

As Jasmine guided her own energy, she keenly discovered subtle flaws within the dark power. These flaws corresponded to energy nodes in the human body's meridians; by finding and attacking these nodes, the dark power might be weakened. "I've found the weakness of the dark power!" Jasmine suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze gleaming with excitement, and shouted, "Everyone, follow me! Attack these locations corresponding to the meridian nodes!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qing's eyes flashed with surprise, and he immediately adjusted his attack direction. He gathered all his qi and blood into his longsword, circulating the energy of his Stomach Meridian of Foot Yangming, making his power surge like a raging river. He found the corresponding node in the dark power and unleashed a series of sharp sword energies. The sword energies carried scorching heat and powerful impact, exploding into crimson light in the darkness. However, the regenerative ability of the dark power was beyond imagination, and the wounds caused by the sword energies were quickly healed by the darkness.

Qin Feng acted swiftly, concentrating his mind and combining his understanding of spatial power with his knowledge of the human body's meridians. He opened tiny spatial rifts within the dark power, these rifts appearing precisely at locations corresponding to meridian nodes, attempting to draw the dark power into them. He channeled the Yang energy of his Du meridian, giving the spatial rifts even stronger suction. Although the spatial rifts had limited effect on absorbing the dark power, they did weaken its intensity to some extent.

Ye Lan then drew upon the natural elements, fusing water, fire, wind, and earth together to form a powerful composite energy. She mobilized the Yin fluids of her Ren meridian, making the composite energy both gentle and resilient. She infused this energy into the dark power corresponding to the meridian nodes, triggering a series of explosions. The dark power experienced a brief period of chaos under the impact of the explosions.

Seeing this, Jasmine seized the opportunity, compressing her microscopic energy to its limit, forming sharp energy spikes that shot towards the nodes of the dark power. Using the power of her meridians as a guide, she imbued the energy spikes with boundless explosive force. These energy spikes, like arrows from the microscopic world, pierced through the darkness, causing substantial damage to the dark power. The dark power began to fluctuate, its previously stable form becoming distorted.

However, the dark force did not give up. Seemingly sensing their intentions, it began a frenzied counterattack. The dark force coalesced into enormous black tentacles, sweeping towards the four. Wherever the tentacles touched, space was torn apart, emitting ear-piercing sounds.

"Get out of the way!" Lin Qing shouted, pulling Jasmine aside quickly. Qin Feng opened a spatial rift, teleporting Ye Lan to safety. The black tentacles slammed heavily onto the ground, kicking up a huge cloud of dust.

The four dared not slacken their efforts, continuing to attack the weaknesses of the dark forces. In the fierce battle, Lin Qing, in order to protect Jasmine, was struck by a black tentacle, leaving a deep wound on his arm from which blood flowed freely.

"Lin Qing!" Jasmine exclaimed, her eyes filled with heartache. She quickly mobilized her microscopic energy to heal Lin Qing's wounds while simultaneously increasing the intensity of her attacks on the dark forces. "You must be alright!" Jasmine prayed silently in her heart.

Lin Qing gritted his teeth, enduring the pain, and continued fighting. His eyes revealed a firm determination; no matter the cost, he would protect Jasmine and fight alongside everyone to defeat the forces of darkness.

As the battle continued, the four gradually grasped the patterns of the dark power, and their attacks became more precise and powerful. Under their combined attacks, the dark power was gradually weakened, and the originally overwhelming oppressive feeling slowly diminished.

Suddenly, Jasmine noticed a tiny point of light at the core of the dark power. Although faint, this light emanated an aura completely different from the dark power—an aura full of vitality and hope.

"Look, everyone, that point of light!" Jasmine shouted, pointing to the core of the dark power. "That might be the key to our complete defeat of the dark power!"

The four immediately focused their attacks around the point of light, attempting to expand its range. Lin Qing's sword energy, Qin Feng's spatial rift, Ye Lan's natural elemental attacks, and Jasmine's microscopic energy spikes all rained down on the dark forces surrounding the point of light.

With everyone's efforts, the light gradually expanded, and the dark power began to dissipate rapidly. As the dark power dissipated, the tremors in space gradually stopped, and the previously collapsing space slowly returned to calm.

Finally, the dark forces were completely defeated, and the entire space returned to tranquility.

They continued their exploration of this strange space, discovering more clues related to the mysteries of the human body. On one wall, they saw a huge star map, marking the correspondence between various stars and the meridians and acupoints of the human body. Through this star map, they understood the close connection between the human body and the universe; the mysteries of the human body are not limited to itself but are also closely related to the vast universe.

In another part of the space, they discovered an ancient book. Its cover was covered in mysterious runes. When Jasmine touched the runes, the book opened automatically, and the words inside seemed to come alive, leaping and flashing on the pages. These words recorded an ancient cultivation method, through which one could further enhance their energy and achieve a state of oneness with the universe.

The four began studying the ancient book, and following its instructions, they attempted to cultivate this new method. During the practice, they felt the energy within their bodies continuously increasing and merging, creating a deeper resonance with the surrounding space and universe.

As their cultivation deepened, the four individuals experienced a significant increase in strength. Their bodies became more powerful, and their control over various forces became more adept. Jasmine's perception of microscopic energy became more acute, enabling her to perceive all the mysteries of the microscopic world; Lin Qing's blood and qi became more abundant, and every attack he made contained immense power; Qin Feng's spatial abilities underwent a qualitative leap, allowing him to easily traverse different spatial dimensions; Ye Lan's control over natural elements reached a new level, enabling her to harness natural elements for her own use, creating various wondrous effects.

As they completed their cultivation, the entire space suddenly changed. The previously still light began to flow, forming a passage leading to the unknown. A mysterious aura emanated from the passage, as if beckoning them to continue their journey.
