The Genius Mage - Chapter 277
Chapter 277: Red Moon in the Sky
Audrey did not stand at on ceremony. But, if that was the case, she could take advantage of the night to go to the otherworldly realm to cultivate.
Ever since she came here, although everything was going smoothly, she had always felt uneasy. It was as if there was some great danger that had yet to appear. Audrey could only speed up her cultivation and improve as much as she could to prevent any mishaps.
In the otherworldly realm.
Audrey appeared in a long blue dress, as though she was a noble lord of ice and snow.
This time, she did not head straight for the house. Instead, she stepped outside for a while. Compared to the first time she came, the otherworldly realm seemed to be a little bigger.
Could it be that the higher her cultivation level, the bigger the otherworldly realm would be?
Audrey guessed in her heart that this was the only possibility at the moment.
If that was the case, it seemed like the benefits of cultivation were great.
Audrey pursed her lips into a faint smile. She noticed that the few herbs she had thrown into the otherworldly realm a few days ago had taken root and continued to grow in the magical realm.
Moreover, they had grown even more vital.
Audrey was surprised. She stared at the soil in surprise. Could it have the ability to cultivate herbs?
She quickly walked forward and took out some herbs from her spatial pocket. She rooted them in the soil and watered them with water from the hot spring.
The herbs did not change much, so Audrey ignored them. She just thought that the time was too short.
Following that, Audrey took out the book from her room and continued practicing.
Under the forest, the girl in blue seemed to be dancing gracefully. From time to time, she would bring up some leaves and petals, emitting a charming aura. After practicing for an unknown amount of time, Audrey finally stopped.
Although she trained on the isolated island during the day and in the magical lands at night, Audrey did not feel tired. Every time she finished training, she would take a bath in the hot spring, and all the fatigue in her body would dissipate.
Not only did the hot spring have the ability to heal, but it also seemed to make people full of vitality.
This was the experience that Audrey had summed up over the past few days.
Audrey estimated that the sky should be bright outside, so she left the magical lands. However, just as she was about to open the tent and leave, she realized that it was still pitch black outside, except for the ball of fire that was used for lighting and warmth.
Besides the ball of fire was Klein, who was keeping watch.
Has time passed so slowly today? Audrey was puzzled. Was it because she has practiced for too short a time.
However, after practicing the entire book once, the sky was almost bright. Why was it so strange today?
Since the sky was not bright yet, she might as well sleep for a while. So Audrey lay down in the tent and soon fell asleep.
When she woke up again, the sky was still dark. Audrey was even more puzzled. She walked out of the tent this time and saw Klein and Kate taking over the night watch.
“Audrey, why did you come out?” Klein asked tiredly.
“I woke up and came out to take a look. Did you guys feel that the night was very long? I felt like I had rested for a long time,” Audrey voiced out the doubts in her heart.
“It seems like it. Usually, Klein and I only need to hand over twice before the sun rises. But, it’s already the fourth time today.”
Kate immediately realized that something was wrong. “I thought it was because the time I slept had shortened.”
“It shouldn’t be.” Audrey frowned, her expression suddenly turning serious.
As cultivators, their schedules were very regular. They would not suddenly sleep less or more. Therefore, the night had lengthened.
Then, what time was it now?
Not knowing how much time had passed was the scariest thing. The three of them immediately felt uneasy.
“Then, isn’t it already morning?” Klein asked in surprise.
“Yes.”
“But why isn’t the sky bright yet?” Klein continued asking, feeling both puzzled and apprehensive.
This was a question that the three of them did not understand. Audrey could not answer it either. She could only rely on the things around her to determine what was going on.
In the forest, the night was freezing and foggy, exuding a sinister aura. Usually, only the bright moonlight could illuminate the path a little.
Moonlight? Why was the forest so dark today?
Audrey suddenly raised her head and realized that what was hanging in the sky was not a bright moon but a red moon. It dyed the surrounding sky red.
“Look at the moon,” Audrey reminded them.
Klein and Kate raised their heads at the same time. When they saw the red moon, their hearts trembled.
In Spark City, the red moon had always been an ominous sign. Every time they saw the red moon, it would make them shudder in fear. It was no exception here.
“What the hell is going on!” Finally, Klein could not hold it in any longer.
Audrey fell silent. Her deep blue eyes flashed with a complicated look.
No wonder she had been feeling uneasy. The real danger was here. The red moon hung high in the sky, and night filled the air. In the vast forest, there was no telling when or where. There were also many unknown dangers. This could probably break the hearts of many people.
However, she was Audrey, the embodiment of the snow goddess. She had a strong heart and was not afraid of these things. It was just that she had not thought of a solution yet.
“Don’t panic. Although it’s always night and we don’t know the time and direction, we need to calm down first and slowly think of a solution,” Audrey said to comfort the two of them.
“Audrey, you’re right. We can’t lose our footing,” Kate suddenly realized and followed Audrey’s words.
“Yes, I know. We should calm down,” said Klein.
Audrey nodded and sat down by the fire. What she wanted to know the most was time. After all, it was hard to wait aimlessly. But, if she knew the time and how long the training would last, there was still some hope.
“Do any of you have a way to know the time?” Audrey asked.
Klein and Kate were slightly stunned. But, unfortunately, they did not bring a clock with them.
