Chapter 154 - The Bloody Moon, and a New Wave of Spiritual Tide (2/2)

‘A bloody moon… A bloody 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 bloody moon is something rare, seen only once in centuries or whatever.’

‘Didn’t the experts say that the bloody 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 bloody 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 bloody 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 bloody moon in the sky is the sign of the god of our religion opening the gates of hell. The gates are just on top of the moon, and the fires of hell shall rain down on the earth by then, cleansing the earth of its impurities, and only those who submit to our god 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 hell 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 masse 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 bloody moon was a harrowing phenomenon that could have only been seen on Earth.

All the photographs taken by the astronauts on the international space 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 bloody moon felt like a bloody 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.
