Chapter 986: The Crows Caw When The Moon Goes Down!
Peerless Martial God
Lin Feng looked at Hua Zhang Feng. Lin Feng didnât understand what was going on.
âEh?â Lin Feng looked at the siblings. They were both looking at him strangely. They didnât understand.
âThey didnât hear it.â thought Lin Feng. He was the only one who had heard the dragon chant.
âYan Di, did you hear anything?â asked Lin Feng using telepathy. He wanted to make sure.
Qiong Qi looked at him and said, âI havenât heard anything. What did you hear, little boy.â
âThe dragon chant.â said Lin Feng. He had nothing to hide from Qiong Qi. Qiong Qi was surprised, Lin Feng had heard a dragon chant?
âItâs nothing. I suddenly thought about something important, thatâs all.â said Lin Feng to Hua Zhang Feng smiling. He didnât want to tell them he had heard the dragon chant. It was better to keep some things secret, he trusted that they wouldnât ask anyways.
Hua Zhang Feng was skeptical, but thought it wouldnât be polite to ask for more information. He just looked back at the tower. There were many people flocking to the tower.
âLittle boy, are you sure you really heard a dragon chant?â asked Qiong Qi in a grave and serious way. Dragons were imperial creatures.
âIâm not sure.â said Lin Feng shaking his head.
âYouâre not sure?â asked Qiong Qi.
âIâve never heard anything like that, so I canât be sure. But my body started shaking and my blood was boiling. It felt like my body was going to explode. It felt like... blood strength!â said Lin Feng.
âYouâve never had that kind of feeling before?â
âNever.â replied Lin Feng immediately.
âYour blood is very weak.â said Qiong Qi. Because Lin Fengâs blood wasnât strong enough, the dragon chant had caused a painful reaction in Lin Fengâs body. Even those who had poor blood could have powerful reactions if the cause was intense enough.
âWhat type is your blood strength?â asked Qiong Qi.
âI donât know. Iâve heard that my motherâs ancestor was a Zun cultivator who had swallowed the strength of a nine-headed dragon. Then, he turned it into blood strength before transmitting it to us as the nine-headed dragon spirit.â replied Lin Feng.
âThe nine-headed dragon!â Qiong Qiâs eyes were twinkling. âNo wonder your blood is so weak. Your ancestor was a Zun cultivator, but since you have the nine-headed dragon blood strength, you reacted to the dragon chant. However, it wasnât a long chant, because anyone can hear those.â
âOh!â Lin Feng understood. A small shout like that had already caused him to react in quite a strong way though.
Lin Feng looked at the Black Crow Tower. The cultivators who were going there had probably reacted like him. But they were probably stronger than him and didnât react so strongly. With a strong blood, cultivators could do things like Prince Tian Lin and Chou Jun Luo, like directly mixing their blood strength with their spirit.
âBrother Lin, something is happening.â said Hua Zhang Feng.
âIndeed.â Lin Feng nodded. Even more people were approaching. They had probably heard the dragon chant before so they were going there now.
Anything could happen so people thought staying together was safer.
âWoo...â
Lin Feng started shaking and his blood started boiling again. Another dragon chant. That one was more intense than the one before.
Lin Feng hid his reaction this time so Hua Zhang Feng didnât notice anything. âBrother Lin, there are so many strong cultivators going there, should we go as well?â
âWhy not? Yes, letâs go. Those strong cultivators donât care about us.â said Lin Feng calmly even though his heart was pounding violently. Two dragon chants, was something happening?
âZhang Feng!â shouted someone at that moment. Lin Feng and Hua Zhang Feng raised their heads and saw several people who all looked extraordinary.
âBrothers, youâre here already.â said Hua Zhang Feng.
âZhang Feng, there were two dragon chants. Something might happen. You should leave with your sister, itâs too dangerous for you guys.â said someone in the sky and then left. Hua Zhang Feng was surprised, two dragon chants?
Hua Zhang Feng looked at Lin Feng, he was going to say something.
âBrother Hua, wouldnât it be a pity not to see whatâs going on there?â said Lin Feng with an indifferent smile. âOf course, if you want to leave, Iâll go alone.â
âHaha, youâre brave. How could I disappoint you.â said Hua Zhang Feng with a nice smile. They continued moving forwards.
Lin Feng smiled but remained speechless. Lin Feng heard a third dragon chant and his reaction was the same as before.
Suddenly, the atmosphere became eerily calm.
A pale light appeared. Lin Feng raised his head and saw people gathering in front of the moon.
âKraa... kraa...â crows cawed and flew away from the tower.
âWhatâs going on?â said Hua Zhang Feng.
âWhatâs wrong?â asked Lin Feng.
Hua Zhang Feng looked at Lin Feng and said slowly, âThe crows caw when the moon goes down.â
âThe crows caw when the moon goes down?â Lin Feng frowned. He didnât understand what Hua Zhang Feng meant.
âBrother Lin, when dragons chant in the middle of the night, it is an auspicious sign, it means good things will happen. When the crows caw when the moon goes down, it is an inauspicious sign, it means death.â explained Hua Zhang Feng. He looked grave, âTonight, the dragons are chanting and the crows are cawing, that sounds like a battle between good and evil.â
âIâm not familiar with those expressions...â whispered Lin Feng. Could those expressions be taken seriously anyway?
âIndeed. In the past, people firmly believed those sayings. Itâs about cultivators fighting against the Earth and sky.â explained Hua Zhang Feng. âOh, it comes from the antiquity. Two forces emerging from the night.â
Lin Feng looked at Qiong Qi.
âIndeed.â Qiong Qi nodded. Even an emperor believed in those things. Lin Feng felt excited, impatient and scared at the same time. What was going to happen?
At that moment, the boat arrived on the land surrounding the tower. There were so many strong cultivators gathered there!
