Shocking Secrets of the Celestial Realm

Inside the secret chamber, the light of magic flickered and intertwined, and the shouts of battle were deafening. Yi Chen's swordplay was fierce, each strike imbued with the mysterious power bestowed by the Horned Wood Dragon constellation, forcing the Shadow Society members to retreat repeatedly. Xiao Feng's fist techniques were powerful and fierce, the wind from his punches whistling as he engaged in close combat with his enemies, kicking up dust. Jasmine and Meng Li stayed behind, one using her spiritual power to provide protection for her companions, and the other manipulating natural elements to disrupt the enemy.

After a fierce battle, the group finally repelled the Shadow Society. Panting, they watched their enemies flee, knowing that the struggle over the secrets of the Twenty-Eight Mansions had only just begun.

"Is everyone alright?" Jasmine asked with concern, her eyes sweeping over each of her companions. Everyone nodded, but their expressions remained grave.

Yi Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Although we repelled them this time, the Shadow Society will definitely not let this go. We must find a way to resolve the Starry Sky Crisis as soon as possible."

Recalling the scene he saw in the mysterious light, Yi Chen tried hard to remember the details and, combining them with records in ancient books, deduced that an abandoned ancient city might hold key clues about the Kang Jinlong constellation. Without the slightest hesitation, the group immediately embarked on their journey to the ancient city.

Along the way, the wind howled, sand and stones flew, and the stars in the sky remained disordered, emitting an eerie light, as if foreshadowing the impending danger.

When they arrived at the abandoned ancient city, the scene before them was desolate. The broken walls and ruins swayed precariously in the wind and sand. The once prosperous city was now nothing but ruins, filled with an atmosphere of death.

"This is it." Yi Chen gazed at the ruins before him, his tone resolute. The group cautiously entered the ancient city, the stone slabs beneath their feet creaking dully, as if telling tales of the past.

In the heart of the ancient city, they discovered a hidden entrance and followed it into an underground palace. The palace was dark and damp, filled with a putrid stench. Gems embedded in the walls emitted a faint glow, barely illuminating the surroundings.

Suddenly, Mengli pointed to the wall and exclaimed, "Look, everyone!" Everyone looked in the direction she was pointing and saw that the wall was covered with strange patterns and ancient characters. Among these patterns was a giant, winding dragon, radiating golden light—the very image of the Kang Jinlong. Around the dragon were images of human bones and marrow, seemingly connected by some mysterious force.

"Could this be the relationship between the Kang Jinlong constellation and human bones and bone marrow?" Xiaofeng curiously leaned closer to observe the patterns carefully.

Jasmine stepped forward and gently stroked the patterns on the wall, her expression solemn: "Judging from these patterns and words, the power of the Kang Jinlong constellation may have a special influence on the human body's bones and marrow, and may contain the secrets to strengthening the human body and healing injuries."

The group huddled together, carefully examining the patterns and inscriptions, trying to find more clues. Just as they were engrossed in their exploration, a soft footstep sound came from the passageway.

"Oh no, someone's coming!" Yi Chen gripped his sword tightly, alert.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than the members of the Shadow Society reappeared at the palace entrance. The leader sneered, "You think you can get rid of us? How naive! Hand over the ancient texts and the secrets of the stars, and we'll spare your lives!"

"Don't even think about it!" Jasmine shouted angrily. "You greedy bunch, you won't be able to steal the secret of the stars!"

The two sides instantly fell into a stalemate, and a tense atmosphere filled the air, with a fierce battle about to break out.

The Shadow Society launched the first attack, unleashing beams of black magical light towards them. Yi Chen swiftly wielded his sword, deflecting each attack while shouting, "Everyone, be careful!"

Xiaofeng unleashed his powerful fist techniques, charging towards the Shadow Society members. His punches were incredibly strong, each one accompanied by a whistling sound, forcing the enemies to retreat steadily. However, the Shadow Society members outnumbered him, and they gradually surrounded Xiaofeng.

In the midst of the fierce battle, a member of the Shadow Society took advantage of Xiaofeng's unpreparedness and launched a sneak attack from behind. A black light struck Xiaofeng's back, causing him to cough up blood and fly through the air like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground.

"Xiaofeng!" everyone exclaimed and ran towards Xiaofeng.

Jasmine rushed to Xiaofeng's side, her heart filled with anxiety as she looked at his pale face and weak breath. At this moment, Xiaofeng's vital signs were extremely weak; his heart was beating slowly, his breathing was becoming increasingly shallow, and blood was constantly gushing from his wounds, staining his clothes red.

"No, we can't let Xiaofeng die!" Jasmine said through gritted teeth. She remembered the relationship between the Kang Jinlong constellation and the human body that she had just studied, and a bold idea suddenly came to her mind.

"I'm going to try to use the power of the Kang Jinlong constellation to save Xiaofeng!" Jasmine said, closing her eyes, concentrating her mind, and trying to mobilize the power of the Kang Jinlong constellation.

Yi Chen and the others stood by, watching Jasmine nervously. They knew this was an adventure, but at this moment, they had no other choice.

Jasmine's forehead was covered in sweat as she diligently guided Kang Jinlong's star power into Xiaofeng's body. With the infusion of star power, Xiaofeng's wounds began to heal slowly, and his complexion gradually regained some color.

However, just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the entire ancient city suddenly began to shake violently. Gems fell from the walls, and huge cracks appeared in the ground.

"Oh no, it seems we've triggered some kind of mechanism!" Mengli exclaimed in alarm.

Jasmine opened her eyes, looking at the changes around her, her heart filled with doubt. She was clearly just using the power of the Kang Jinlong constellation to save Xiaofeng, so how could it have caused such a turn of events?

As the tremors intensified, a corner of the palace suddenly collapsed, revealing a hidden passage. A mysterious aura permeated the passage, as if beckoning everyone.

“This passage might hold more secrets about the Kang Jinlong constellation. Let’s go in and take a look!” Yi Chen said, helping Xiao Feng up and heading towards the passage. The others followed closely behind, their hearts filled with both anticipation and a touch of nervousness. They didn’t know what awaited them in the passage, but to unravel the secrets of the constellation and save the world, they had no choice. What secrets did that hidden passage hold? Could they find the key to resolving the constellation crisis in the perilous passage? Everything was still unknown, and they could only muster their courage once more amidst this unknown fear, facing the adventure that was about to begin.
