Is this a coincidence, or is there something wrong with the spiritual platform
Luo Heng found that both explanations were difficult for him to accept - there were only about fifty people in this class, and seven Qi sensers appeared at one time. This ratio really subverted common sense. If it's the latter... A spiritual platform is worth thousands of gold. If it breaks in his hands, he will probably have to pay off the school's debt for the rest of his life.
He decided to try it on himself first.
With the injection of gas, the pointer points to the "redemption" position very accurately.
Luo Heng breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, everything on the spiritual platform looked normal. That conclusion can only be the first one - the luck of this class is quite astonishing, and they happen to have seven children with the gift of being able to sense energy. From now on, they will have a completely different life from others.
But... is this really the case
The age at which one can sense qi varies over several years. For example, Luo Heng did not awaken to this ability until he was eleven years old, while those geniuses from aristocratic families have already emerged at the age of five or six. Theoretically, it is theoretically possible to open one's eyes until adulthood.
That's the problem—these children in front of me just tried it for the first time today. Seven people succeeded in the first attempt, which can no longer be summarized as a coincidence. Even though he never likes to get to the bottom of things, he can't convince himself with this reason.
It can only be said that there must be some reason that led to this abnormal situation.
Luo Heng couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over his body when he thought of this, and an indescribable chill rose from the soles of his feet - it was not a tremor caused by fear, but a subconscious tremor produced by the body in the face of an unprecedented change.
If anyone can find out the reason, it will surely cause a shocking wave in the magic world.
For some reason, Xia Fan's answer suddenly appeared in his mind again -
"Because once people know the existence of reason, the way people look at the world will change."
…
In the western suburbs of Jinxia, inside Fengyang Villa.
After Ning Wanjun led the army on the expedition, she left the entire villa to Xia Fan. In the princess's words, he had been wandering around for more than a month, and now it was his turn to go out for some air.
So the villa became Xia Fan's temporary office location. The first thing he did after getting up during the day was to deal with some difficult-to-decision issues in the Secretariat, and then he had free time throughout the morning and afternoon. In the evening, Mo Yun would come over to discuss some professional issues about arithmetic and machine-building technology, and the drawings of the magical instruments brought back from the Gyeonggi Privy Council were also handed over to her hands. After dinner, it was time to communicate with Ning Wanjun. Most of the time, they were alone. Occasionally, there would be a small meeting to focus on the next strategic plan.
At almost ninety o'clock, the fox demon will return to the villa with the tengu and tell Xia Fan about the day's experience with great interest.
Since the new notice about demons was posted, Li Bian became the first practitioner...or rather a demonstrator. She no longer hid her ears and tail, and walked freely through the streets and downtowns. This move undoubtedly attracted the attention of many people, but it also attracted a lot of criticism.
All of this was naturally heard by Shan Hui.
When the latter relayed it, even Xia Fan couldn't help but frown. However, when he revealed his worries, Li told him frankly that this was a necessary process to change the world's opinions. She already has someone she can trust completely, so she won't be hurt by these criticisms. If she speeds up people's acceptance process, those demons who are truly uneasy and afraid of stepping into the human world will be able to suffer less harm.
In addition, Li also learned the skills of fishing and law enforcement from Xia Fan - only a few people in Jinxia City know the details of the fox demon, so if there are extreme people who want to turn their malicious words into actual actions, Shanhui can do it in advance. We got the news in one step and notified the arrest department to conduct an ambush and arrest.
This matter has also become one of Li's daily pastimes.
As for the free time from morning to afternoon, Xia Fan was not idle either. When he had time, he would take out the secret book of immortal arts and look through it, bit by bit, restoring the circuit diagram above into a diagram he could understand. Although many of the designations have changed, the role of a component can still be inferred based on its position in the diagram.
According to the description in the secret record, this magic is silent and lightless when performed. If the sensitivity to Qi is not high, it will be difficult to detect that someone has launched an attack.
And its effect is also very strange.
The caster can control the power of the spell by himself. When more energy is invested, this technique is similar to the Li method and can cause burning and flames. And its high temperature not only accumulates on the surface, but can also directly damage the interior of the target, and neither armor nor clothing can stop it.
If the consumption of Qi is reduced, it will have almost no direct effect, but after a few days, the practitioner will also feel the severe pain caused by burning, and the body will fester and decay, as if being eroded by a vicious disease. More importantly, most treatment methods are ineffective. No matter how strong the alchemist's recovery ability is, he will eventually die.
At the end of the secret record, it was also mentioned that although this technique is difficult to prevent, the distance it can be used is extremely short. The ideal effect can only be achieved within a two-step range. Beyond this distance, the power of the magic will plummet. Therefore, the Privy Council gave it an appropriate name: Nine Nether Fire.
However, in Xia Fan's view, this technique is more like... radiation.
The former type of symptom description is very consistent with the characteristics of thermal damage caused by high-energy rays, while the latter type looks like some kind of dislocation injury.
But this is just a guess.
After all, the illustrations in the secret records are extremely complex, and some places are difficult for Xia Fan to understand. It is beyond his ability to fully show the full picture of immortal arts.
Of course, this does not mean that this Immortal Technique Secret Record is useless. Since it cannot be used intact, he can disassemble it and use it. For example, the catalog of Jiuyouhuo also includes the amplifier circuit part, and it is better than others. The picture I drew is several times more detailed. Identifying and digging out these available parts is his current main research direction.
"Master Xia, Master Xue, the Privy Council Officer, wants to see you." While Xia Fan was deconstructing the magic, a guard walked into the study and reported, "He is currently waiting outside the villa."
"Xue Zhigeng?" Xia Fan put down the brush in his hand, "Take him to the living room, I'll be there right away."
"yes."
In the classroom, he quickly met the visitor.
The former head of the Recording Department is now one of the main persons in charge of the Privy Council, and is also in charge of the teaching of magic arts in the school. Although Xue Zhigeng came from the original Privy Council faction, he later contributed a lot in the process of rebuilding the Privy Council framework and turning it into a ministry, which can be regarded as showing his attitude through actions.
Xia Fan got straight to the point and said, "I wonder what Mr. Xue wants from me?"
"It's a matter of great importance, Mr. Fu Cheng." The other party cupped his hand and said with an excited expression, "Recently, a teaching alchemist reported to me that there were many students awakening the ability to sense Qi at the same time in the school. I originally thought it was just a misjudgment. But other alchemists also submitted similar reports the next day. As of today, the third day, the school has discovered a total of twenty-six Qi sensers, and the number continues to increase!"
