Chapter 391 The Moon Has Grown Bigger? What an imagination! A Mountain Dragon Vein Map?
(Still hospitalized...)
...

Lin Jing looked up at the sky, very surprised, because the moon seemed to have become very bright and much bigger.

But how is this possible?

The moon wasn't like this just now; it wasn't this bright.

The key point about the moon becoming brighter is easy to understand, but why did it also appear to become much larger?
He felt like he was dreaming, and even rubbed his eyes.

At the top of the mountain, Chen Han was also surprised to see the moon, which had become brighter and seemed to have become larger.

It's not a lunar illusion; the moon has genuinely become brighter and appears much larger.

This is likely due to the influence of the Seven Luminaries Feng Shui formation, which draws in starlight, making the moonlight halo appear much larger in the night sky.

In other words, it has an extra layer of halo.

Within the lines outlined by the Feng Shui Spirit Stone, the soaring rays of light and the silvery glow of the setting moon grow ever stronger and more magnificent.

This is just the immediate light from the moon; later, the light from the other seven celestial bodies will also be drawn from the distant universe.

The scene created by the Feng Shui Spirit Stone will definitely be even more spectacular.

However, others simply cannot see the scene depicted by this Feng Shui Spirit Stone.

Chen Han quickly intensified his efforts. Once the Seven Luminaries Feng Shui Formation was fully condensed and its energy was gathered, everyone in the Chen family within the formation's range could cultivate the "Seven Luminaries Internal Energy Technique," just like the Wudang or the Dragon Vein Gathering Formation.

To be precise, the Seven Luminaries Formation surpasses both the Thunderfire Alchemy Peak and the Dragon Vein Formation.

After all, it's a feng shui formation that draws upon the power of seven stars.

If the Chen family members can practice diligently and have some talent, they will definitely achieve considerable success in real kung fu even without formal training.

The formation was finally set up successfully, but a sudden game notification startled him for a moment:
Congratulations on successfully setting up the Seven Luminaries Feng Shui formation...

[The array's ability to draw in stellar energy seems to be hindered by something; the traction is insufficient, and the stellar energy cannot be guided...]

The Seven Luminaries Formation is currently incomplete due to insufficient star power. Finding high-quality feng shui stones may help complete the formation.

"???" Chen Han was clearly stunned for a moment.

This is clearly not right.

The formation had clearly been successfully set up, but now only moonlight was streaming in.

The other seven celestial bodies were blocked at the atmosphere and could not be drawn in at all.

The key issue is that he simply doesn't understand what's going on.

Why can moonlight work, but the other seven celestial bodies can't?
Chen Han was completely unaware of this.

This left him speechless, because the Seven Luminaries Formation was incomplete, meaning his upgrade requirements were no longer met.

Isn't this just ripping people off?

Fortunately, the game system suggested that you could find higher quality feng shui, which might complete the feng shui formation and make the Seven Luminaries Formation fully effective.

Moreover, the incomplete Seven Luminaries Formation is not entirely without attributes:
【Seven Luminaries Feng Shui Formation: According to the seven luminaries, the feng shui formation arranged by the Seven Sages Ancient Tree can attract the star power of the seven luminaries to fall and form the formation.

Limitations: The Seven Luminaries Formation is currently incomplete and cannot function effectively; the formation's energy cannot be generated; and the "Seven Luminaries Internal Energy Technique" has not been distributed.

Attributes: Moonlight Brightness +2! Moon Halo +2!

Seeing the two attributes of the incomplete Seven Luminaries Formation, Chen Han also put away the Feng Shui Spirit Stone. When the Feng Shui lines constructed by the Feng Shui Spirit Stone disappeared, he couldn't help but be surprised when he looked at the moon.

The moon was noticeably larger than before; if I had to describe it, it would be a spectacular sight, unbelievable.

The key is that extraordinary brightness.

The first time he saw the moon, he realized it could illuminate the entire expanse of clouds, and under its light, the entire Chen family and Shangyuan Village area became as bright as day.

The key is that the light is soft, not as scorching and intense as the daytime sun, making it very comfortable to look at, as gentle as water.

Lin Jing was immediately drawn to the unusual moonlight in the sky. The further he went, the brighter the moon became, and the clearer the surroundings were illuminated. He found it increasingly incredible.

He had never seen such a moon or moonlight before.

Moreover, after experiencing the exorcism at night, he wondered if the sudden change in the moon was related to this.
Not only Lin Jing, but many tourists in Chen's family were attracted by the unusual moonlight, and then came out of their rooms to look at the incredible bright moon.

The people of Shangyuan Village also noticed the unusual moonlight. Tourists and villagers alike came out to watch the strange sight of the moon in the sky.

"I haven't seen such a bright moon in a long time." Village chief Guo Zhen looked at the moon in the sky with disbelief.

The two elderly villagers beside him nodded in agreement.

They've only ever seen a moon like this before the 90s.

Back then, their generation even played jump rope, hide-and-seek, and threshed rice under the moonlight...

These are things that simply cannot be done under the moonlight in modern times.

The moonlight has almost completely disappeared, unlike before.

But the moonlight tonight seems even brighter than it did back then.

Look around at the ground; it's clearly visible under the light.

Many tourists have already taken out their phones and are excitedly filming videos of the moon in the sky.

The tourists were very excited; the Chen family had many surprises that night.

First, the Shadow Demon appeared, and everyone experienced the fun of defeating it. However, when the video was posted online, people online simply didn't believe it.

Unexpectedly, the incident with the demonic shadow had barely passed when the moon in the sky became so magnificent and astonishing.

If there's no connection between them, then nobody would believe it.

Although the Chen family's demon-slaying activities have been turned into demon-slaying special effects gameplay, the Chen family's popularity remains, since these demon-slaying special effects are based on the Chen family's demon-sealing and demon shadows.

Therefore, the video posted by the tourist from Chen, showing that the moon was particularly bright tonight, quickly attracted a lot of attention.

After Huang Tao realized that the exorcism video was fake and just special effects, he and his girlfriend filmed a video together. After watching TV for a while, he decided to go to sleep with his girlfriend.

As soon as they lay down on the bed, the two couldn't resist taking out their phones and scrolling through Douyin (TikTok), and then they came across a video of Chen Shi Yueguang.

The background is the Chen family's residence, and the video even shows the three old elm trees belonging to the Chen family. However, the content of the video made the two of them feel a sense of unreality.

They had never seen such bright moonlight before; even the endless clouds in the dark night were illuminated as if it were daytime.

Moreover, the video clearly illuminated the ground, grass, and trees outside, which was truly stunning.

"Is this fake?" Huang Tao blurted out subconsciously, feeling that he had learned his lesson this time: "I've never seen moonlight like this in my entire life. It's just special effects or AI."

"Honestly, aren't all the tourists from the Chen family incredibly bored this time? They already pulled off the 'Shadow Demon' stunt, and now they're doing this again. Even if the Chen family has high popularity, they don't try to ride this wave."

“It doesn’t seem fake,” his girlfriend suddenly said.

"???" Huang Tao was clearly stunned.

What do you mean?
What he thought was true was actually false; what he thought was false is now being told is true.
Is this how you play it?

However, he still asked his girlfriend out of curiosity, "Why did you say it wasn't fake?"

"The horn is being honked live, and there are almost 5 people in the live stream already," his girlfriend explained, waving her phone screen in front of him.

Huang Tao was surprised and took out his phone to search. Sure enough, he quickly found the live stream of the horn sounding.

Through the live stream, he could clearly see that the camera was pointed directly at the moon in the sky.

The moon seen in the live stream was exactly the same as the one in those videos.

The sound of a horn rang out: "As you can see, I'm waving my hand. This isn't a special effect. The moon is really bright tonight. As far as I know, it seems to be only like this here at the Chen family's place. The moon is still the same in other places."

Huang Tao understood what he was saying. Without hesitation, he quickly got up, drew back the curtains, and looked out the window.

His girlfriend clearly saw through his intentions and also got up and looked out the window.

To their disappointment, the moon outside the window was still as gray and unremarkable as ever, and the sky around the moon was pitch black, making it impossible to see anything.

Comparing those videos with the live broadcast of the horn blasting, it's like two completely different worlds.

Is this right?
Are they not on the same planet, not in the same country?
Not only the two people, but also netizens who initially thought the moon video was fake, all rushed to places where they could see the moon after discovering it was real.

Everyone stared blankly at the two completely different moons, wondering why this was happening.

And some people were the most excited.

That was Chu County. He was almost asleep at home when he suddenly received a call from Chen Kai. When he answered, Chen Kai's hurried voice came through: "Chu County, quickly watch the live broadcast of the siren. Another incredible thing has happened at the Chen family. The moon at the Chen family seems to have changed. It's completely different."

"???" Chu County was stunned.

What the hell?

Has the moon mutated?
He wondered how this thing had mutated, and even went to the window to look at the moon in the sky.

That's it, nothing different.

However, the fact that Chen Kai called him at this time must mean that something had happened on the Chen side.

He immediately searched for "douyin mingdi" (a type of horn) and then saw a live stream of the horn being sounded.

When he saw the live stream, even he, with his vast experience, was taken aback.

"How can this be……"

He couldn't quite believe it.

After watching the live stream for a while, it became clear that the live stream didn't seem fake.

This made him quickly put on his clothes, take out his phone and dial Chen Kai's number: "Come over here, let's go to Chen's place together."

He had no doubt that if Chen's area truly possessed such a spectacular moonlit scene, coupled with its unique climate of mild winters and cool summers, many tourists would likely come specifically to camp there just for the night view.

Imagine setting up a tent with your loved one under the moonlight, placing a small table with some fruit and snacks, adding a couple of small chairs, and enjoying the moonlight – how pleasant that would be!

"Okay," Chen Kai replied.

After Chu Xian went downstairs, a car quickly pulled up in front of him. It was Chen Kai, and the driver was naturally the county magistrate's driver.

After getting into the car, he immediately ordered them to go to the Chen family's residence.

The driver nodded and started the car towards Chenshi. Just after leaving the county and turning onto the national highway leading to Chenshi, they saw many cars heading towards Chenshi.

It was clear that many people in the county had seen the state of the moon at Chen's place, and many believed it, so they rushed to Chen's place overnight.

The main reason was that the distance from Chen's residence to the county town wasn't too far, and also because there were a lot of people with nothing better to do. Chu Xian and Chen Kai traveled to Chen's residence, watching the sky the whole way, their faces filled with anticipation.

As we traveled towards the Chen family's residence, the moon in the sky remained unchanged, still a hazy gray.

This made them start to feel disappointed, especially when they got close to Chen's place, which was still the same as it had been in the videos.

If it were really as magical as depicted in the video, they should have seen the difference once they arrived here.

As the car continued its journey, they suddenly felt as if the world had changed, and the surroundings suddenly became much brighter.

Even without streetlights, the road ahead is clearly visible.

"This..." The driver exclaimed in surprise, but then instinctively shut up, remembering that there were two leaders in the car.

Chu Xian and Chen Kai looked up at the sky with expressions of surprise, excitement, shock, and disbelief.

It really was that kind of moon; it illuminated the surrounding area brightly, it was truly magical.

Moreover, this sudden change was even more incredible, as if this special moon belonged exclusively to the Chen family.

How astonishing it was that the dark moonlight suddenly became so bright and radiant.

It was even truly mysterious, as if the Chen family had created their own world.

It seems so, with its unique climate, unique air quality, and now this incredibly unique moonlight.

Isn't this a world that exists independently outside of Linhe County?

In ancient times, this must have been a sect of immortals, with unparalleled and unique scenery.
Chu Xian and Chen Kai stopped their cars, and many cars from the Chen family that had come also stopped, all drawn by the special moonlight in the sky.

Beijing.

Ma Gongtai also hurriedly returned to the Future Company and went to the satellite monitoring operation screen.

He thought he didn't need to go back that night, but something else had happened to the Chen family.

The video Li Shengfeng sent back immediately made Chen Shi's Moonlight realize that something was wrong.

When he pointed the surveillance camera at the Chen family's location, he was just as shocked, because in the darkness of the night, the Chen family's house was surprisingly bright, not like the neon lights of the streets, but rather illuminated by natural moonlight.

He knew this was definitely not normal, so he tried pointing the satellite imagery toward the moon and observed it carefully.

The process also involved analyzing the moon's light conditions using various satellite functions and light sources.

Looking at the display showing that the analysis was in progress, he also looked at the lunar images taken by the satellite and observed them carefully, but found nothing different.

Just like always.

But the moonlight on the Chen family's side was just different.

As soon as the satellite analysis was completed, he stood up in surprise. Through the satellite's light source and energy capture, he clearly saw the light emitted by the moon gather more in one place before falling.

That location was directly in the direction of the Chen family.

It seems that the Chen family is showing more favoritism and care towards them, especially towards the moon.

Of course, he was more convinced that the Chen family head must have done something to cause this change.

He wondered if it was related to the ghostly figures that appeared in Chen's house at night.

The moonlight could actually deal with the demonic shadow or increase the sealing power, which is why this strange sight has appeared.

This isn't the first time Ma Gongtai has imagined this possibility at night; now, the more he imagines it, the more he believes it.

He definitely had to go to the Chen family tomorrow; he wouldn't feel at ease without asking the Chen family head.

...

Chen family.

Chen Han had already arrived at the place where the feng shui stones were stored, and put them into the game warehouse one by one to check the notes on the feng shui stones.

[Ordinary Feng Shui Stone: This is an ordinary feng shui stone, insufficient to repair the Seven Luminaries Formation!]

...

[Ordinary Feng Shui Stone: This is an ordinary feng shui stone, insufficient to repair the Seven Luminaries Formation!]

Each feng shui stone was put into the warehouse, and a notification appeared.

However, none of the feng shui stones met the requirements and objectives.

I tried all the feng shui stones that Wudang sent last time, but still got nothing.

This made him a little disappointed.

I originally thought that once all seven ancient trees were gathered and the Seven Luminaries Formation was set up, the mission would be completed and the sect's base would be upgraded.

Who knew this situation would suddenly occur?

However, the feng shui stone is not available at the moment, but you can still look up some information about it.

He immediately returned to his courtyard and went to the library, hoping to find some ancient books.

Now, apart from moonlight, all other stellar energy is being blocked outside the atmosphere.

He didn't know if it was the atmosphere blocking it or some other reason.

There must be a reason why the key moonlight can be introduced.

The atmosphere, scientifically speaking, is naturally formed and mainly consists of three stages:

One is the primitive atmosphere, which existed between 46 billion and 40 billion years ago.

The second is the secondary atmosphere, which existed between 40 billion and 25 billion years ago.

This is volcanic activity inside the Earth, with eruptions continuously releasing gases such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, and ammonia (from the volatilization of mantle material). These gases are recaptured by Earth's gravity, forming a second atmosphere.

Water vapor cooled and condensed, gradually forming oceans and laying the foundation for subsequent atmospheric evolution.

Then there's the modern atmosphere, dating back 25 billion years.

The main reason is that 25 billion years ago, primitive organisms such as cyanobacteria appeared, absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen through photosynthesis. As oxygen gradually accumulated, it not only changed the composition of the atmosphere (from "anaerobic" to "oxygen-rich"), but also formed the ozone layer in the upper atmosphere (blocking ultraviolet rays and protecting life).

At the same time, the respiration and decomposition of organisms, as well as the regulation of the carbon cycle by plate tectonics, have together stabilized the atmospheric composition to its current state, which is dominated by nitrogen (about 78%) and oxygen (about 21%).

Simply put, oxygen appeared at this time, allowing life on Earth to survive normally.

Therefore, oxygen is crucial during this period.

This is also why science has determined that there was no life or life was difficult to survive before that period.

However, this seemed unrelated to the matter. He then looked through some ancient Taoist texts, which contained some ambiguous descriptions of the atmosphere.

For example, "the heavens have five elements, layered like a wheel." These five elements correspond to the current atmospheric stratification, and are divided into clear and turbid, yin and yang.

Yet this also implies a clear distinction and a state of isolation.

There is another interesting ancient book that describes Lao Tzu's "tuoyue" (橐龠) for avoiding obstacles at the boundary.

Lao Tzu likened the universe to a bellows, and the atmosphere to the boundary barrier of this cosmic bellows.

The barrier is made of invisible gas, which can isolate heaven and earth from outer space, prevent the gas inside the earth from leaking out, and at the same time allow the exchange of gas between the inside and outside through gaps similar to "Duiyu Gate", maintaining the airflow and chaotic balance between heaven and earth.

This corresponds to the atmosphere's role in blocking space debris and maintaining the stability of Earth's atmosphere.

According to this theory, these stars and their energy should be able to be attracted in, but they are being blocked now. Could it really be because of the atmosphere?
However, based on this information, Chen Han has no way of making any judgments at the moment.

He spent the whole day researching, but still had no clue. He simply gave up looking for the cause and decided to think about the high-grade feng shui stones instead.

The phone in my hand suddenly rang. It was a call from Chairman Ma. After answering, I learned that he had already arrived at the Chen family's.

Ma Gongtai arrived at the Chen family's residence immediately. After connecting with the Chen family head's call, he went to the other party's courtyard.

When he arrived, the other party had already brewed a pot of tea and was waiting for him, and even poured him a cup.

One whiff of its aroma tells you it's Leizhu Lingcha (雷竹灵茶).

After finishing a cup of tea, Ma Gongtai didn't bother with any more subtle questions. He knew that politeness was useless with this Chen family head: "Chen family, does your Chen clan really possess something like a demon-sealing formation? Is the seal loosening now, so the demonic shadows have escaped, but those that have emerged so far aren't very strong?"

"You're searching for those ancient trees because of the sealing? And that special moonlight is also related to the sealing?"

Upon hearing these words, Chen Han stared at Ma Gongtai in astonishment. What was this guy imagining?

To be honest, that Cloud Barrier Pill was just to prevent you, Mr. Ma, from spying.

The demonic shadow was merely an afterthought after the Cloud Barrier Cauldron was repaired, and since it posed no threat, it served as a pleasant surprise for the Chen family tourists, who clearly had a great time.

As for the moonlight, that was part of the Seven Luminaries Formation, arranged using ancient trees.

That's why we need to use the Cloud Barrier Pill to block your vision, Mr. Ma.

So, if you, Mr. Ma, hadn't been spying, this wouldn't have happened.

Who knew that you, Mr. Ma, would imagine these stories as a logically closed loop and connect them all together.

Chen Han could only shake his head and say, "Chairman Ma, none of this is true. Don't overthink it."

Ma Gongtai looked intently at the head of the Chen family. He clearly saw that the head of the Chen family had been lost in thought just now, which meant that he had actually guessed correctly.

However, the Chen family head had clearly already resolved this issue and did not wish to discuss it further.

No problem, that's good.

So he smiled at Chen Han and said, "Patriarch Chen, I understand, I understand."

"???" Chen Han opened his mouth. The other party understood, but he didn't understand what the other party understood.

Just as he was wondering what to say, a game notification suddenly sounded:
Because of the rise of the Chen family, and after the Demon-Sealing Shadow incident, their reputation has grown even more. News has come from the Shu Mountain Immortal Alliance, inviting you to participate in the restoration of the Crimson God Mountain formation.

Crimson God Mountain holds a pivotal position in the righteous path, being one of the most powerful earth dragon veins. Repairing the formation of Crimson God Mountain will have a greater suppressive effect on the demonic path and its magical energy.

Once the Crimson God Mountain formation is repaired, rewards related to the 'Mountain Patrol Dragon Vein Map' may be obtained.

A map of the mountain's dragon veins?
Chen Han's eyes lit up.

This thing is awesome.

After the Five Emperors Sword was forged, he thought that with this, he could travel to other places.

Take, for example, the snow-capped mountain in Xiao Rizi.
