Shocking Secrets of the Celestial Realm

Chapter 231 Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian

With the crisis in the Realm of Stars temporarily over, Jasmine led her disciples to a tranquil place to begin their cultivation of the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian. The place was filled with spiritual energy, like a veil, shimmering with a dreamlike glow under the sunlight.

Jasmine, dressed in flowing white robes, stood before the crowd with a solemn yet gentle expression: "Classmates, today we will explore the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin. It begins in the lungs, runs along the inner side of the arm, and extends to the tip of the thumb. The lungs govern respiration, and this meridian is like the fresh air in the universe, nourishing our lives and is of vital importance."

The disciples sat up straight, their eyes fixed on Jasmine, their thirst for knowledge burning brightly. Yichen leaned forward slightly, his hands unconsciously clenching into fists, as if trying to grasp every word Jasmine taught. Mengli, on the other hand, placed her hands on her knees, a hint of tension on her face. She knew the difficulty of meridian cultivation, yet she was filled with anticipation.

Jasmine slowly closed her eyes, a faint white light emanating from her body, soft and warm, like the spring sun. She gently raised her hand, slowly tracing the path of the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin in the air, the light flowing with it, clearly showing the direction of the meridian.

"Everyone, close your eyes, calm your mind, and feel your breath. Imagine that fresh airflow, like pure energy from the universe, flowing slowly into your body along the lung meridian, nourishing every cell," Jasmine gently guided.

The disciples closed their eyes and, following Jasmine's instructions, began to feel the flow of energy within their bodies. Yi Chen took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, trying to make his breathing even and slow. Gradually, he felt a faint current of energy surging within his body, starting from his lungs, flowing along the inside of his arm, and towards the tip of his thumb. That warm feeling filled him with joy.

However, just as everyone was immersed in cultivation, Zi Ling's trusted disciple, Xiao Xuan, quietly opened her eyes. A hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by determination. Clearly, she had been deceived by Zi Ling's sweet words and was determined to carry out the plan to disrupt the cultivation order.

Suddenly, Xiao Xuan let out a strange cry, sharp and piercing, like the hooting of an owl, shattering the tranquility. The surrounding disciples were startled by the sudden cry, opening their eyes in fear.

"What's going on?" Xiaofeng asked in a panic, his eyes filled with confusion and unease.

"Who's causing trouble?" Mengli frowned, a hint of anger flashing in her eyes. She hated it when someone disrupted the atmosphere of cultivation.

This shout caused some disciples' breathing to become disordered instantly, their previously smooth flow of energy becoming sluggish and hindering their cultivation progress. Jasmine frowned slightly, opened her eyes, and her gaze, sharp as lightning, instantly locked onto Xiao Xuan.

"Xiao Xuan, why are you disrupting the cultivation order?" Jasmine's voice was still gentle, but it carried an undeniable air of authority.

Xiao Xuan's expression changed slightly, and a hint of panic flashed in her eyes, but she still tried to remain calm and said, "Elder Jasmine, I... I suddenly felt unwell and couldn't help it."

Jasmine looked at Xiaoxuan, knowing she was lying, but she didn't expose her immediately. "Since you're not feeling well, take a rest," Jasmine said calmly, then turned to the other disciples, "Everyone, don't be disturbed, continue your cultivation. The path of cultivation is full of various distractions and challenges. We must learn to maintain inner peace and not be swayed by external influences. Just as traditional Chinese medicine says, the human body needs to maintain a balance of Yin and Yang, and the mind must also remain peaceful and stable in order to cultivate better."

The disciples nodded, closed their eyes again, adjusted their breathing, and tried to regain their previous meditative state. Jasmine walked to Xiaoxuan's side and said softly, "Xiaoxuan, I know you were instructed by Ziling. But you must understand that cultivation is for self-improvement and the pursuit of truth, not for being used by others."

Xiao Xuan's face turned deathly pale. She hadn't expected Jasmine to see through her scheme so quickly. "Elder Jasmine, I...I was wrong." Xiao Xuan lowered her head, her voice choked with sobs. "Ziling said that as long as I helped her, she would help me improve my cultivation. I was confused for a moment and agreed to her."

Jasmine sighed softly: "There are no shortcuts to cultivation. Only by being down-to-earth can you truly achieve something. Zi Ling's approach will only lead you astray."

Xiao Xuan raised her head, her eyes filled with regret: "Elder Jasmine, what should I do? I don't want to be used by her anymore."

Jasmine smiled and said, "It's not too late if you're willing to change. From now on, you can work hard with everyone, and I will help you get back on the right track."

Xiao Xuan nodded emphatically: "Thank you, Elder Jasmine. I will definitely cultivate diligently."

Having resolved Xiaoxuan's problem, Jasmine returned to the center of the group and continued guiding the disciples in their cultivation. Under her careful guidance, the disciples gradually regained their focus, and the energy within their bodies flowed smoothly once again.

Yi Chen immersed himself in cultivation. He felt his breathing becoming deeper and deeper, each breath seemingly drawing in pure energy from the universe, nourishing his body along the lung meridian. His lungs seemed to become lighter and full of vitality, and a warm power flowed from the inside of his arm all the way to the tip of his thumb.

Mengli combined natural elements with the cultivation of the Lung Meridian. She manipulated the wind element, letting the fresh breeze surround her and enter her body with each breath, resonating with the flow of energy in her Lung Meridian. She felt her connection with nature become even stronger, as if she were a part of nature, with the energy of the universe continuously flowing into her body.

As their practice deepened, the disciples gradually felt the miraculous power of the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin. Their breathing became smoother, their bodies lighter, and their mental state refreshed.

"You've all done very well." Jasmine looked at her disciples with satisfaction. "Cultivating the Lung Meridian of Hand-Taiyin not only improves our physical fitness but also allows us to better perceive the energy of the universe. Next, we will further explore the connection between the Lung Meridian and other meridians."

Just then, a low rumble suddenly came from the sky, as if a storm was about to break. Everyone looked up and saw that in the distance, dark clouds were rapidly gathering, forming a huge vortex. A powerful energy fluctuation emanated from the vortex, sending chills down their spines.

"What's going on?" Xiaofeng asked in alarm, his voice trembling slightly.

Jasmine's expression turned serious: "It seems we're in new trouble. Everyone be prepared to deal with any potential dangers."

The disciples stood up, gripping their weapons tightly, their spiritual energy circulating around them, ready for battle. What exactly was hidden within that mysterious vortex of dark clouds?
