Shocking Secrets of the Celestial Realm

When everyone noticed the mysterious accomplice, which resembled black smoke, it had already arrived behind Qin Feng, extending a hand formed from smoke and reaching out to grab him.

In the nick of time, Lin Qing reacted swiftly, channeling his inner energy to hurl his longsword like lightning. The sword, imbued with a sharp aura, pierced directly at the black smoke. Sensing the danger, the smoke's accomplice dodged the attack with a swift movement. Qin Feng also seized the opportunity to leap forward, escaping the danger zone.

"That was close!" Qin Feng said with lingering fear. He immediately opened multiple spatial rifts, spreading spatial power around the area to prevent the smoke accomplices from launching another sneak attack.

"This smoke accomplice is too strange, everyone must be careful!" Jasmine activated her microscopic energy perception, trying to penetrate the smoke and find its weakness, but a strange energy permeated the smoke, interfering with her perception.

Ye Lan waved her jade flute, drawing upon natural elements to form a multicolored protective barrier around everyone. She simultaneously infused it with fire elemental power, attempting to dispel the eerie smoke. "I'll see what this smoke is capable of!"

The smoke accomplice let out a sinister laugh, then suddenly expanded, instantly plunging the entire battlefield into darkness. In this darkness, everyone's vision was severely limited, and they could only sense the enemy's location by relying on energy fluctuations.

The accomplices of the "bacteria and virus" seized this opportunity and launched an even more ferocious attack. The spider and ghost accomplices, who had previously been driven back in defeat, seemed to be emboldened by the smoke accomplices and rallied. The spider accomplices spun even stronger silk, which shimmered eerily in the darkness, like deadly ropes, coiling towards the group.

The ghostly henchmen unleashed dark magic, raining down black energy orbs upon the group. The air was torn apart by the orbs, producing a sharp whistling sound. Meanwhile, the smoke henchmen moved nimbly through the darkness, launching stealthy attacks that were impossible to defend against.

The four worked closely together, supporting each other. Lin Qing wielded the longsword he had summoned from the spatial rift, severing the approaching spider silk one by one. His figure moved like a ghost in the darkness, each swing of his sword carrying powerful blood energy, the sword qi crisscrossing and shattering the surrounding black energy spheres.

"Everyone be careful, these spider silks and energy balls are even stronger than before!" Lin Qing reminded his teammates while fighting.

Qin Feng concentrated, unleashing the full power of space. He not only had to maintain the stability of the spatial rift to block enemy attacks, but also search for the Smoke Accomplice's trail in the darkness. He discovered that whenever the Smoke Accomplice launched an attack, the surrounding space would subtly distort. Using this information, Qin Feng pinpointed the Smoke Accomplice's location and immediately manipulated the spatial rift, heading towards it.

The smoke accomplice seemed to sense the danger; its figure moved swiftly in the darkness, skillfully avoiding the spatial rift's attacks. However, Qin Feng did not give up; he continuously adjusted the position and shape of the spatial rift, relentlessly pursuing it.

Jasmine activated her microscopic energy perception to its fullest extent, struggling to detect the enemy's energy fluctuations despite the interference of the smoke. She discovered that there seemed to be some kind of connection between the energies of these "bacteria and viruses," as they resonated with each other and enhanced one another's power.

"I've discovered that the energies of these accomplices are interconnected. We must sever the connections between them to weaken their power!" Jasmine shouted.

Upon hearing this, Ye Lan immediately waved her jade flute, drawing upon the lightning element from nature. Streaks of purple lightning flashed in the darkness, striking towards the spider and ghost accomplices. The power of the lightning not only directly harmed the enemies but also disrupted the energy connection between them.

The accomplices, struck by lightning, experienced chaotic energy fluctuations, causing their attacks to pause briefly. Lin Qing seized this opportunity, channeling his inner energy and unleashing his ultimate technique—"Blood and Qi Rage." His inner energy surged and formed a powerful wave that surged towards the enemy.

Under the impact of the surging blood and qi, several spider henchmen were instantly blasted away, their bodies shattered by the immense force. The ghost henchmen were also severely affected; the power of their dark magic was greatly reduced, and the previously condensed black energy spheres became dim and lifeless.

However, the "bacteria and virus" accomplices did not give up. The smoke accomplices emitted a sharp whistling sound, and the scattered energy rapidly converged, reforming into new accomplices. These new accomplices seemed even stronger, their attacks more ferocious, and the battle once again reached a stalemate.

The Smoke Accomplice launched another sneak attack, transforming into a black streak of light as it charged towards Jasmine. Sensing the danger, Jasmine immediately activated her micro-energy, forming a defensive barrier in front of her. However, the Smoke Accomplice's attack was too powerful; the barrier shattered instantly, and Jasmine was sent flying by a powerful impact.

"Jasmine!" Lin Qing shouted, immediately flying towards Jasmine and catching her. Ye Lan also quickly waved her jade flute, drawing upon natural elements to heal Jasmine's injuries.

Seeing this, Qin Feng was furious. He concentrated all his spatial power, creating a massive spatial vortex around the enemy. Within the vortex, the powerful suction force pulled in all the "bacteria and virus" accomplices.

"Let's see how you escape this time!" Qin Feng roared.

However, the smoke accomplice displayed astonishing power. Struggling within the spatial vortex, it gradually stabilized itself. It opened its maw and spewed out a stream of black energy, which counteracted the force of the spatial vortex, causing its suction to gradually weaken.

"How can the power of this smoke accomplice be so strong?" Qin Feng said in shock. He increased the output of spatial power, trying to further enhance the suction force of the spatial vortex.

Just as everyone was locked in a difficult battle against the accomplices of the "bacteria and virus," Jasmine gradually recovered under Ye Lan's treatment. She stood up, her eyes shining with determination.

“I won’t be defeated like this!” Jasmine declared, activating her microscopic energy perception once more, concentrating her mind to search for an opening in her enemy’s defenses. This time, she discovered a tiny energy node at the core of the Smoke Accomplice, a node that seemed to be the source of the Smoke Accomplice’s power…
