Chapter 104: The Old Man in the Cave
Like this several times, the scene kept changing, allowing him to see some images of the old man’s daily teachings. Shen Luo felt like a spectator, watching silently, but utterly disconnected from it all.
Just as Shen Luo thought he had fallen into a nightmarish loop with no end, the situation changed slightly.
This time, he found himself back in the White Stone Square, watching everyone sitting quietly around, listening to the Feather-robed elder imparting his teachings.
The sky, clear before, suddenly turned as dark as night, shrouded by an enormous shadow. The entire sky seemed to be ablaze, turning a fiery red.
Looking up, Shen Luo saw huge Red Meteorites, seeming to come from the outer world, leaving crimson trails across the sky, bringing with them rolling black smoke as they fell in all directions.
One of them headed straight for the square.
Shen Luo felt a jolt of fear at first, but then his face turned pale as a realization hit him.
He had only read about this phenomenon, akin to the Heavenly Fire descending, in miscellaneous records. Most of them attributed it to volcanic eruptions, but he had never witnessed it.
Now, as he watched the Red Meteorite fly towards him, from initially the size of a millstone, gradually growing as large as a house, when it was about to fall directly above, it had grown as giant as a mountain peak. Naturally, he was terrified.
