Chapter 186 Power Awakening
On the day of the decisive battle, the sky seemed to be torn apart by a giant hand, and dark clouds surged and rolled in like ink, shrouding the entire Spirit Illusion Continent in a suffocating darkness. Thick bolts of lightning, like ferocious dragons, roamed freely among the clouds, and deafening thunder seemed to shatter the heavens and earth.
Jasmine, her white robes fluttering in the wind, stood alone atop the towering mountain peak. The fierce wind tousled her hair, yet it could not diminish the unwavering determination in her eyes. She took a deep breath, slowly closed her eyes, fine beads of sweat forming on her forehead, her spiritual energy surging like a turbulent tide. At this moment, she concentrated all her energy, attempting to open the mysterious and dangerous channel for transmitting her primordial spirit.
"Jasmine, you must succeed!" At the foot of the mountain, Lin Qing looked up at the summit with anxious eyes, her hands unconsciously clenched into fists, her knuckles turning white from the force. Qin Feng and Ye Lan beside her also looked solemn. They knew that if Jasmine succeeded in this step, it might be the key to turning the tide of the battle; if she failed, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Lin Qing, can Jasmine... do she manage?" Ye Lan's voice trembled slightly, her eyes filled with worry.
Qin Feng patted Ye Lan on the shoulder, trying to calm her down: "Don't worry, Jasmine can definitely do it, we have to believe in her." Although he said that, a trace of unease could not be hidden in his eyes.
High atop the mountain, Jasmine's consciousness seemed to be in a chaotic universe, surrounded by endless darkness and the unknown. Suddenly, a faint light flickered in the depths of the darkness. Jasmine's heart leaped with joy, and she rushed towards the light with all her might. Just as she was about to touch the light, a powerful resistance suddenly struck, violently knocking her back.
"No, I can't give up!" Jasmine roared inwardly. She gritted her teeth, gathered all her willpower, and charged towards the light once more. This time, she succeeded! The light surged into her body like a torrent. Instantly, Jasmine felt her primordial spirit being filled with a powerful force, as if it were about to burst out of her body.
At the same time, deep within Jasmine's body, a mysterious organ slowly began to vibrate—the organ for awakening her primordial spirit. As the power of her primordial spirit continued to flow in, the organ was successfully activated, and an unprecedented power erupted within her.
"Ah!" Jasmine roared to the sky, her voice echoing throughout the heavens and earth. She slowly opened her eyes, which shimmered with a strange light. A powerful aura emanated from her, and the surrounding air distorted and deformed because of her power.
"It's a success! Jasmine did it!" Qin Feng shouted excitedly at the foot of the mountain, his face beaming with joy.
Lin Qing and Ye Lan were also very excited, their eyes filled with relief. However, before they could rejoice for long, a thick black fog suddenly appeared on the distant horizon, surging in like a tide.
"Oh no, it's the Dark Night Society!" Lin Qing's expression changed drastically, and he immediately assumed a defensive stance.
Black mist rapidly spread, enveloping the entire valley. A group of figures clad in black robes slowly emerged from the mist—members of the Dark Night Society. The leader, exuding a powerful aura of darkness, wore a cruel, cold smile.
"Hmph, you think you can stop us like this? How naive." The leader's voice was deep and cold, like a roar from hell.
"No matter how powerful you are, we will not back down!" Lin Qing shouted angrily.
The leader glanced at Lin Qing disdainfully, then turned his gaze to Jasmine on the mountaintop: "I didn't expect you to have opened the primordial spirit transmission channel and activated the primordial spirit awakening organ. However, this cannot change your fate of defeat."
"Let's give it a try!" Jasmine leaped down from the mountaintop, landing steadily beside Lin Qing and the others. A powerful light emanated from her, a stark contrast to the dark aura of the Dark Night Society.
"Attack!" The leader waved his hand, and members of the Dark Night Society surged towards them like a tide.
A breathtaking battle erupted. Lin Qing's hands moved swiftly, forming hand seals, and streams of golden yang energy shot from his hands like sharp blades, piercing towards the enemy. Qin Feng manipulated spatial power, distorting the space around the black-robed men and hindering their movements. Ye Lan played her long flute, the sound transforming into energy barriers to deflect the enemy's attacks.
Jasmine then fully activated the power of her primordial spirit within her body. Her hands moved rapidly, and strange beams of light shot out from them, causing the dark power to dissipate wherever they touched.
"Hmph, you've got some skill." The leader sneered and took action himself. He conjured a ball of black flame in his hand and threw it towards Jasmine and the others.
"Watch out!" Lin Qing shouted, rushing forward to shield everyone with his own body. The black flames struck Lin Qing, his body instantly enveloped in dark power, causing him to groan in pain.
"Lin Qing!" Jasmine cried out in terror, her eyes filled with anger and grief. She rushed towards the leader without hesitation, the light in her hand growing even brighter.
The leader sensed Jasmine's immense power, and his expression changed slightly. He immediately mobilized all the dark power in his body to engage in a fierce battle with Jasmine. In an instant, light and darkness intertwined, energy overflowed, and the entire valley trembled violently.
During the fierce battle, Jasmine discovered that the leader's dark power seemed to resonate with the negative emotions of this world, constantly being replenished by it.
“This can’t go on. We must sever his connection with the negative emotions of heaven and earth,” Jasmine shouted.
"But how do we cut it off?" Qin Feng asked anxiously.
After a moment of thought, Jasmine suddenly came up with a plan: "I will use my spiritual power to create a barrier to isolate him from the outside world, and you can take the opportunity to attack his weaknesses."
"Okay, let's do it that way!" everyone responded in unison.
Jasmine took a deep breath and channeled all her spiritual power, creating a radiant barrier around the leader. Trapped within the barrier, the leader struggled frantically, trying to break free.
"Now!" Lin Qing shouted, gathering his yang energy in his hand to form a golden longsword, which he thrust towards the leader's chest. Qin Feng also manipulated spatial power, creating a spatial vortex beneath the leader's feet, attempting to devour him. Ye Lan, meanwhile, played a long flute, using its music to disturb the leader's mind.
The leader sensed the threat of death and roared madly, unleashing all his dark power. However, under the combined attack of the group, his power gradually weakened.
Just when everyone thought victory was in sight, an unexpected event occurred. A mysterious black shadow suddenly darted out of the darkness and rushed towards Jasmine at an extremely fast speed.
"Jasmine, watch out behind you!" Qin Feng shouted.
Jasmine had no time to dodge and was struck by the shadow, her body flying out like a kite with a broken string.
"Jasmine!" Lin Qing and the others exclaimed, rushing towards Jasmine.
Jasmine slowly opened her eyes, a trickle of blood escaping from the corner of her mouth: "What...what is this?"
Only then did everyone realize that the mysterious black shadow was actually a humanoid creature formed from dark power, emanating a powerful yet eerie aura.
"Hmph, this is a gift I prepared especially for you," the leader chuckled smugly. "It combines the most evil power in the universe; none of you will leave here alive!"
The mysterious black shadow charged towards the group again, moving with incredible speed, tearing apart space wherever it went. Lin Qing and the others hurriedly tried to defend themselves, but the shadow's power was too great, and they gradually found themselves in a difficult situation.
"Are we really going to fail?" Ye Lan said in despair.
Just then, Jasmine suddenly felt her primordial spirit power surging within her, and a mysterious force emerged in her mind. Without thinking, she immediately mobilized this power and shot it towards the dark figure.
The mysterious black shadow was struck by this force, letting out a painful roar as its body began to gradually dissipate.
"How is this possible?" the chieftain exclaimed in horror.
Jasmine slowly stood up, her eyes gleaming with unwavering determination: "This is a gift from higher-dimensional power; your evil plans will never succeed!"
Having said that, Jasmine once again mobilized her primordial spirit power and higher-dimensional strength, charging towards the leader and members of the Dark Night Society. Faced with overwhelming power, the members of the Dark Night Society fell one after another, and the leader was also struck by Jasmine's power, suffering severe injuries.
"No, this is impossible..." the leader cried out in despair, before turning into a wisp of black smoke and disappearing.
With the leader's disappearance, the dark power of the Dark Night Society quickly dissipated. The dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and sunlight once again shone on the Spirit Realm.
"We...we won?" Qin Feng said in disbelief.
"Yes, we won!" Jasmine smiled with relief.
The group embraced each other excitedly, tears of joy glistening in their eyes. They had finally won this arduous battle, safeguarding the peace of the Spirit Realm.
However, Jasmine knew this was just the beginning. Countless unknown and evil forces awaited them in the universe. But she was fearless, for she had the support of her companions, immense power, and an unwavering belief in protecting this continent.
In the days that followed, Jasmine and the others continued their training, constantly improving their strength. They knew that the road ahead was long and challenges would follow, but they were prepared to face all the unknown adventures.
