Chapter 154: The b.l.o.o.d.y Moon, and a New Wave of Spiritual Tide

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The day came without warning. No one else but Lu Xuan had been aware that, that night was the next wave of the Spiritual Tide taking place.

The shackles of the world would have loosened further as the new Spiritual Tide came.

It was akin to expanding a pool that was the world even further, thus making it possible to house even more powerful beings.

It was entirely possible for cultivators who had been stuck at Deity Level to make progress at leaps and bounds after that day.

By then, the power of the world of cultivators would have been expanded even further. It would have become a reshuffling of sorts, and there was no doubt that the ones who were able to keep up and those who were unable to would have been key in deciding who were the ones to reign supreme for quite a time in the future, and who were the ones to be eliminated from the race.

As the cultivation forces continued to be reshuffled, things gradually went back to how Lu Xuan remembered them back in his past life.

That opportunity was about to come on that very night.

“Alright, other than this, I have one more thing to talk to you guys about. Tonight would the time where the next wave of the Spiritual Tide hits. Make good use of this opportunity. Even if you are unable to make a breakthrough, you would have been able to make huge progress in your cultivation.”

What Lu Xuan said stunned many right there and then. There were some who had been able to achieve little thus far among the crowd, and even Lu Xuan’s family, whom he had been providing guidance only for the past several months, all had received guidance from Lu Xuan to varying degrees over the past several months. As such, it was not like they knew nothing about cultivation at all.

They all knew about the Spiritual Tide. The world was being continuously restored, and every Spiritual Tide was a chance, and those who managed to seize it would have had a lot to gain. Something like that had been happening all the time, and it had happened more than once over the past couple of years.

The Spiritual Tide was not a secret among the cultivators.

Every tide was a huge opportunity for those who managed to seize it to make progress by leaps and bounds. Even those who were unable to seize it would have gotten something out of it in a pa.s.sive manner.

The bodies of common folks were being modified in secret as well, making them even more healthy.

To cultivators, the Spiritual Tide would have been one h.e.l.l of an opportunity.

“I would lay down a myriad of Spirit Gathering Formations in the villa, enabling all of the spirit qi from the tide to be gathered, and that should prove enough for furthering your training,” Lu Xuan said.

Zhang Hongyang and the others were indescribably elated. The coming Spiritual Tide was, without a doubt, a rare opportunity.

The news of Lu Xuan having moved somewhere else was quite the news in the province, but not overwhelmingly so. Some paid attention to it, while some others paid no heed. While most people had heard of the legendary Mr. Lu, those who knew that Mr. Lu was Lu Xuan were but a handful in all of the province’s cultivators. If one were to look at it at a national scale, those who had actually seen Lu Xuan personally were even fewer.

The name that Lu Xuan had made for himself gradually subsided over the last couple of months. Many Deity Level fighters emerged one after another during that period.

All of them had been making quite a name for themselves in their respective regions.

The people’s attention gradually moved from Lu Xuan to elsewhere.

At the moment, Lu Xuan had gradually become little more than a footnote in the minds of many.

But then again, while Lu Xuan had not been inviting anyone to any housewarming event, there were, nonetheless, many forces who sent representatives to extend their congratulations.

The sky gradually turned dark after Lu Xuan was done dealing with those people.

A b.l.o.o.d.y moon was seen hanging high up in the sky. The blood-colored moonlight shone onto the ground below, making everything look eerie and ominous.

‘A b.l.o.o.d.y moon… A b.l.o.o.d.y moon is seen again. I’d like to see what those experts on TV have to say about this. I’d like to see if they would come up with some bullsh*t like the b.l.o.o.d.y moon is something rare, seen only once in centuries or whatever.’

‘Didn’t the experts say that the b.l.o.o.d.y moon is something seen only once in hundreds of years? Gosh, I’ve been seeing the moon a few times this year. Is it to say that I’m a destined one meant for greatness?’

‘Speaking about ‘meant for greatness,’ I remember that there is some movie that the Chinese and Americans collaborated on is about to be shot. The culture of our nation would have taking the lead again. Boy, what a time to be alive.’

‘Dude upstairs, would you like me to comb your hair with a rake?’

The netizens seemed to have a good time jesting around on the internet when they saw a b.l.o.o.d.y moon appear in the heavens yet again.

All manner of comments mushroomed and spread in a myriad of forums and websites at breakneck speeds.

‘The b.l.o.o.d.y moon has just been seen how many months ago? Would this actually be a sign of something ominous? Why do I get the feeling that things are gonna take a turn for the worse somehow?’

‘The b.l.o.o.d.y moon in the sky is the sign of the G.o.d of our religion opening the gates of h.e.l.l. The gates are just on top of the moon, and the fires of h.e.l.l shall rain down on the earth by then, cleansing the earth of its impurities, and only those who submit to our G.o.d shall be spared from the calamity!’

‘Don’t tell me that the end of the world is coming! I haven’t even enjoyed anything. I haven’t even touched a girl’s hand before. I’d be such a loser if I were to just die like that!’

‘Dying a virgin sure as h.e.l.l feels like what a loser does indeed. It’s definitely an insult like none other!’

All manner of weird theories and discussions were all over the place, and some strange, evil cults had begun to recruit followers en ma.s.se as well.

Many were no longer able to tell what was happening, and there had not been word from the authorities as well. All manner of rumors and news spread all over the month.

What stunned even more people was that the b.l.o.o.d.y moon was a harrowing phenomenon that could have only been seen on Earth.

All the photographs taken by the astronauts on the international s.p.a.ce station showed nothing wrong or off about the moon. Everything looked normal up there.

Yet, the moon looked like it was shrouded in blood by those on the planet.

It would not have been something that huge if the phenomenon was seen only in certain areas. What made the phenomenon so harrowing was how all regions on the planet that were currently facing away from the sun were able to see such a phenomenon in the sky.

That b.l.o.o.d.y moon felt like a b.l.o.o.d.y eye hanging in the sky, which seemed extremely eerie and ominous when gazed from below.

A figure was seen zipping past in the mountainous area of Wuyi mountain like a specter. They managed to cover a distance of over 100 meters in the blink of an eye.

That figure rested on a branch on top of a tree. What made it look weird was that the branch was hardly a big one, and theoretically-speaking, it should not have been able to support the weight of a person standing on it.

Yet, that person stood with their feet firmly planted on the branch, swaying alongside the breeze without any discomfort or awkwardness.

“Shouldn’t be far away.”

That figure, who had just spoken, was none other than Lu Xuan.

His eyes felt like torches, and the night did nothing to hinder his vision. In his eyes, the entire place looked as clear as day.

He moved at blitzing speeds, tracing the increasingly thick Spirit Qi that he was sensing at the moment.
