Chapter 1762: Chapter 477: Troubles Ahead, the Army Physician Plan
A streak of blood-red crescent moon hangs high, the hazy moonlight cascades down, and the stars in the night sky seem to sense something amiss, gradually dimming.
Gradually, only that crescent moon with mottled blood-red remains in the night sky. The originally cool and clear moonlight now carries a touch of strangeness.
Yang lifts his head, opens his mouth, and inhales, as the surrounding faint moonlight transforms into a long river of mottled blood-red moonlight, flowing into his mouth.
Yang closes his eyes, quietly sensing for a moment.
Yu Ziqing also follows suit, absorbing the moonlight. A large amount of moonlight enters his belly, and the initial sensation is the taste of normal moonlight.
Cool and gentle, although not strong, it is a force almost all living beings can utilize, nearly second only to ordinary spiritual energy.
Even mortals who don’t understand cultivation nor breathing techniques, under the moonlight’s illumination in the night, can have a stabilized Divine Soul and settled mind.
In some places, mortals, when treating certain rare ailments, will also sunbathe under the full moon on clear nights. It actually has some effect.
Moreover, normal moonlight has an advantage over ordinary spiritual energy, which is its ability to awaken spiritual wisdom.
Most demons with higher spiritual wisdom generally start by absorbing moonlight to awaken wisdom. If fortunate, they may encounter Emperor’s Liquid, which yields even better results.
As Yu Ziqing carefully savors, when the initial sensation of the moonlight vanishes, and the aftertaste emerges, he can feel something latent within the moonlight.
That force isn’t externally added, but inherently part of the moonlight itself.
This is the most crucial and also the most lethal.
If normal moonlight is a clear sweet spring, gently nurturing living beings’ wisdom, advancing gradually, then now the moonlight’s aftertaste is gentle in appearance, yet hides danger.
Under the stimulation of this force, the effects of wisdom awakening and nurturing the Divine Soul will be stronger.
But this is akin to pulling up seedlings to encourage growth, similar to an Evil Dao.
Originally used to settle the mind, now, beneath the surface of stability, it stimulates more intensely, more unstably.
Beyond a certain limit, it will directly explode, never to be stable again.
A moment later, Yang opens his eyes, and sighs deeply.
"A major event is about to happen. We never expected the first target of that one would be the Moon God..."
Yu Ziqing also looks solemn, gazing at the bright moon in the sky.
He can imagine, even if the bright moon maintains its current state and never changes again, it would still cause a huge impact.
If the duration is prolonged, even ordinary mortals would likely suffer severe impacts.
After all, this moonlight is fundamentally unshieldable, directly pouring over the entire world at night.
Perhaps at that time, ordinary mortal neighbors, who quarreled today, are in a state of Qi-Blood, encounter a full moon night, and under the blood moon’s illumination, their unsettled minds are affected, who knows if they might grab a knife and attack a neighbor.
And cultivators, constantly affected by this, might suddenly turn devilic during advancement.
Originally walking the righteous path, demons who focus on cultivation might lose control and become man-eating devils.
More terrifyingly, if it’s demons using this moonlight to awaken wisdom, fundamentally they are unlikely to be proper good monsters.
"Temporarily shield the moon’s radiance, is it possible?"
"It’s impossible. The bright moon and Great Sun are closely tied to the evolution of the present world.
You could say, even before the Spirit Transformation Array appeared, these two entities were continually nourishing the present world.
All forces, at their roots, are converted and condensed by the Sun, Moon, and Star Radiance.
During our research on the Spirit Transformation Array, we spent a lot of time, manpower, and resources.
We essentially confirmed this, and this is actually the foundation of why the Spirit Transformation Array can succeed.
Because this is the truth of the world.
Plants absorb the Sun, Moon, and Star Radiance to grow, becoming the sustenance for Yang.
Yang, after being consumed, transforms into power for other living beings.
After constructing a vast circle of living beings, all beings gather, naturally creating spiritual energy in that land.
These are closely interconnected things.
Using the Spirit Transformation Array, we accelerate this lengthy conversion, skipping many of the redundant processes in between.
Directly converting the Sun, Moon, and Star Radiance into spiritual energy, although the intermediary loss is quite significant.
Yet, without the prolonged natural process of Heaven and Earth, since the Sun, Moon, and Star Radiance are inexhaustible, the Spirit Transformation Array appears extremely effective.
Spiritual energy is the foundation, the Sun, Moon, and Star Radiance are the foundation’s foundation.
So, you should understand why the former All Gods, when establishing contracts, would pay the price of being forsaken by the Sun, Moon, and Star Radiance.
No one can destroy the sun and moon, nor can they shield the entire world.
No one possesses such immense power.
If someone truly had such power, they would have transcended all of this world.
Better to consider how to shield this world, so the moonlight doesn’t shine down.
But that would be actively regressing the evolution of the present world, a crucial place regressing.
The consequences would be even more severe than the disappearance of Dadui back then."
"What do you think we should do now? Why does it sound worse the more we discuss it?" Yu Ziqing feels an unmistakably bad sense, particularly obvious as Yang keeps making things sound more critical.
"You call this bad? The real bad is yet to come."
Yang extends a hand, calculating.
"It’s now the twenty-ninth of July, roughly the time when the bright moon’s power is at its weakest during the year.
