Self-study class.
Nora was sprawled on her desk, distracted, stealing glances behind her from time to time.
Although Yu Xian looked handsome now, she still wanted to see what a mature and dashing Yu Xian would look like in the future.
"Why do you keep looking at me? Is there something on my face?" Yu Xian felt a bit unnerved by her gaze and couldn't help but ask.
Nora shook her head without a word, then turned her head to sleep, and Yu Xian blinked, having no choice but to look at Chen Ling for help, transmitting with his eyes: "Queen, quickly use your invincible gossip ability to help me!"
"Xian Yu, are you never going to grow up?" Chen Ling blinked, receiving the distress signal, and asked.
Yu Xian's eyes widened instantly, and he looked at Chen Ling gratefully; he finally understood why Nora was in a bad mood.
He wouldn't grow any further, but Nora would continue to grow. He had known this for a long time, but Nora seemed to have only realized it this morning.
No wonder Nora was so gloomy.
He immediately answered, deliberately a little louder: "Theoretically, I won't grow any further, but... I should be able to adjust my appearance at will in the future, changing to look whatever age I want."
"Is it with magic?" Nora couldn't help but look back and asked softly.
Yu Xian shook his head and said, "It's not magic, but the ability needs to be kept secret. Anyway, it's a real physical change, not an illusion or a temporary spell, but a permanent change in appearance."
What he was referring to was Pangu Transformation Divine Power.
The Pangu series of abilities needed to be kept secret, so specific information couldn't be revealed. However, a slight hint was acceptable, as it was impossible to kill all witnesses every time someone used their abilities.
Theoretically, Pangu Transformation Divine Power could permanently alter one's form.
As long as he mentally visualized his continued growth in appearance and then used Pangu Transformation Divine Power to transform, he could effectively become whatever age he desired.
And each transformation, as long as he didn't use Pangu Transformation Divine Power to readjust, would be a permanent change.
"Then can you also turn into an old man?" Nora's thought process was unusual; her eyes sparkled as she looked at Yu Xian, her mind already imagining what Yu Xian would look like when he was old.
Yu Xian rested his chin on his hand, relieved, and chuckled, "Perhaps."
"Xian Yu, can you do me a favor?" Chen Ling asked at this moment, then blinked, indicating she was collecting a debt.
Yu Xian immediately made a 'please speak' gesture, and Chen Ling said, "I found an ancient martial arts manual in an antique street. I went to several Skill: Appraisal institutes, and the appraisers all said it was genuine. Can you help me see if it's really true?"
With that, she took out a somewhat old book from her backpack.
Yu Xian took the book, flipped through two pages, and didn't understand the content. After getting Chen Ling's permission, he then took photos with his phone and posted them on the Kylin APP's discussion board.
Moments later, someone replied that the Qigong manual was genuine, but it was also a dime a dozen.
This manual was called "Primordial Qi Art." It had no requirements for the practitioner's aptitude, but its progress was extremely slow, making it a trashy cultivation method that might not even break through to Chong Class even if cultivated for a lifetime.
Yu Xian scanned the entire book, and after confirming that there were no missing pages, he returned the book to Chen Ling and said, "The Qigong manual is indeed genuine, but for ordinary people, cultivating this technique for a lifetime would probably only extend their lifespan. Unless one is a super genius, it's practically a pipe dream to become a transcendent being through it."
"Then what if you Vampires cultivate it?" Chen Ling was initially a little disappointed, then asked curiously.
Yu Xian quickly shook his head, indicating he wasn't interested. He was already of Pangu Blood and Vampire lineage; adding Qigong to that, what would he become?
It was too terrifying to imagine; he felt like he might explode at any moment.
"Nora, why don't you give it a try?" Chen Ling then looked at Nora.
Nora hesitated, "Can Vampires cultivate Qigong?"
"I don't know, don't look at me." Yu Xian saw Nora instinctively look at him and quickly said.
He genuinely didn't know if Vampires could cultivate Qigong, but after he said it, he was a little worried that Nora might actually try something reckless, so he quickly inquired about this information from his fellow comrades on the Kylin APP.
"Vampires can indeed cultivate Qigong, but most Vampires can only cultivate Qigong methods related to cold and yin, such as those that circulate through the Ren meridian. However, Qigong methods like Blazing Fire Divine Skill or Nine Yang True Scripture would cause harm to Vampires.
However, I've always had an idea: Nora, Kumas's daughter, might be very suitable for cultivating this type of Qigong. Coincidentally, I have a Sunflower Facing the Sun Divine Skill. If she's interested, I can give it to her." At this moment, a member with the codename 'Bat' sent a message to Yu Xian.
Yu Xian thought for a moment and replied, "Thank you, I'll ask."
This Bat obviously knew his codename, but he also happened to know this Bat, because the other party was the Vampire Nora had mentioned before, who had been spared persecution by the Bloodline because he joined Kylin.
One could say that they were the only two of their kind in Kylin.
"Nora, do you know Bat?" Yu Xian looked at Nora and asked.
A question mark popped into Nora's head, and she placed the "Primordial Qi Art" on the table, asking, "Who is Bat?"
"Didn't you tell me before that there was a wild Vampire who was spared persecution by the Bloodline because he joined Kylin? Bat is him." Yu Xian explained.
Nora suddenly understood, then shook her head and said, "Oh, you mean him, no, I don't know him."
"Then why did he ask me to give you a divine skill manual?" Yu Xian muttered to himself, a bit confused.
However, he then couldn't be bothered to guess and directly asked the other party on his phone, and the other party's answer was very simple: "Because of curiosity. I am a researcher specializing in the development and research of Qigong. Nora and you are both very rare individuals."
"Then why didn't you look for me?" Yu Xian continued to ask.
Bat replied, "You are too unstable. I have never heard of a Vampire being able to soar from Chong Class to Sparrow Level in just a few dozen days. Although Pangu Blood is to credit, I don't think you are suitable for adding more unstable factors, and Nora's situation is clearly much more stable than yours. Stability means safety."
Although Bat had been very subtle, Yu Xian understood his meaning. Simply put, Bat believed he was like a bomb that could explode at any moment, so he didn't dare to mess around anymore.
Therefore, he set his sights on Nora, hoping to contact Nora through Yu Xian to conduct his experiments.
"The Qigong in Chen Ling's hand, did you send it?" Yu Xian's eyes narrowed slightly as he asked on his phone.
Bat replied, "That's right, consider it a gift. I hope you'll like it."
"I'm a straightforward person, so I'll be direct. I don't really like your way of doing things. If you dare to scheme against my friend like this again, I'll go directly and beat you up." Yu Xian typed in an impolite manner.
He had been a little strange before, even if "Primordial Qi Art" was a dime a dozen, it shouldn't have been easily acquired by ordinary people. Otherwise, with thousands of chuunibyou teenagers, this kind of Qigong would have spread among ordinary people long ago.
Clearly, Bat understood his relationships very well and knew that he had been attending school during this time.
By giving Chen Ling a Qigong manual without a title, he simply prompted Yu Xian to inquire about Qigong within Kylin, and then he took the opportunity to make contact and introduce the Sunflower Facing the Sun Divine Skill.
"It won't happen again. After all, haven't we already met?"
Bat seemed to have anticipated Yu Xian's displeasure, sending a smiling Bat cartoon emoji, then reassuring him.
