In terms of cultivation method research, Feng Qi was extremely talented. He wasn't boasting, but he was definitely the top student in his grade, a little genius in the eyes of all the teachers.

Following the movements of the instructor in the video as he performed the basics of Cultivation Gymnastics, he quickly mastered the key points of the 272 sets of Cultivation Gymnastics.

As time passed, Feng Qi discovered a problem during his cultivation.

He found that his body simply couldn't store Spiritual Energy.

The Spiritual Energy absorbed into his body would dissipate within moments.

Regarding this, he could only guess that it might be related to his current state as a Living Dead.

So, Feng Qi decided to learn Cultivation Gymnastics first and then try the specific effects when he returned to reality.

After watching the video repeatedly several times, Feng Qi mastered the teaching essentials of Cultivation Gymnastics.

Deciding to bring Cultivation Gymnastics back to reality, he felt that simply learning it himself wasn't enough. The most important thing was to understand the thought process behind the movement trajectories of cultivation methods.

Because bringing back an improved version of a cultivation method from the future would inevitably cause a sensation, he needed a reasonable explanation.

After thinking for a moment, Feng Qi had an idea. He decided to establish a persona for himself as a genius in cultivation method research.

This way, by continuously researching (and plagiarizing) new cultivation methods, he wouldn't be questioned by the outside world and it would gradually become the norm. In fact, not developing a new cultivation method for a long time would be considered abnormal.

By then, when he released a brand new cultivation method, the outside world would think:

"After all, it was developed by Feng Qi, a super genius rarely seen in ten thousand years. It's not surprising!"

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his face.

[Just plagiarize, you've already lost your face. What super genius, heh~tui.]

The sarcastic narration appeared at the right time, interrupting Feng Qi's daydreaming.

After confirming that he had skillfully mastered the future version of Cultivation Gymnastics, Feng Qi didn't check any other cultivation methods, as he had already used up the number of times he could view cultivation methods with tourist privileges.

Clicking on the search page again, he decided to see what the future outcomes were for the people around him.

First was his best friend, "Mo Fei". Clicking the search button, the search results immediately appeared on the screen.

Since there were too many people with the same name, he clicked the filter button, set the historical time to 2000-2300, and changed the gender to "male".

Clicking the search button again, only a little over ten people remained in the list.

He recognized one of the photos at a glance as his best friend, "Mo Fei".

In the photo, Mo Fei had white hair, wore a black eye patch over his left eye, had a thin face, and was wearing a blue uniform.

Clicking on the detailed information page, text appeared.

[Mo Fei (Viper Technology Research Institute - Employee)]: Age at Death: 90 years old Cause of Death: Suffered strong radiation from spiritual energy substances during early research, leaving behind a chronic illness. The old injury recurred at the age of 90, and he passed away at the Third United Military Hospital. Date of Death: March 18, 2095. Lifetime Achievements (Honors): B-Class Employee at Viper Technology Research Institute, B-Class Human Elite Medal, Outstanding Graduate of the Technology Academy, Creator of the Machina-X Series, Developer of the Virtual Reality Technology - X Project...

Mo Fei's achievements left him speechless.

Not only did he live to be 90, but he also received a pile of lifetime achievement evaluations.

Thinking back to the ambitious words Mo Fei often spoke during their chats, Feng Qi now realized that he hadn't been bragging at all; he had actually achieved them.

Only he himself had accomplished nothing and had even died young.

After closing Mo Fei's details page, text popped up on the screen.

[Tourist Privilege, Remaining Character Information Searches: 1 time]

"Is there no end to this? May the privilege dog die a horrible death!"

With only one search opportunity left, Feng Qi began to consider whose information would be best to look up.

After thinking for a moment, he entered the name of History Teacher Wang, "Wang Jinsheng".

After searching and filtering, History Teacher Wang's detailed information appeared.

[Wang Jinsheng (Historical Great Figure)] Age at Death: 187 years old Cause of Death: Tourist has no permission to view. Historical Achievements: Tourist has no permission to view. Evaluation: At the age of 39, after realizing that teaching could not change the fate of humanity, he resolutely applied to Star City Academy to re-study Cultivation Method Research. After graduating with excellent grades, he joined the Tiger Soul Research Institute. His research results made significant contributions to promoting the evolutionary development of humanity and benefited future generations.

Feng Qi: ???

The unpredictable History Teacher Wang in class was actually so outstanding in the evaluation of future people, even being evaluated as a historical great figure. This was something Feng Qi would never have thought of.

But what puzzled him was why History Teacher Wang's file required permission to view.

Also, the cultivation methods rated five stars or higher in the database require corresponding permissions to view.

Logically, confronting the invasion of Domain Creatures requires the collective effort of all humanity, so there shouldn't be restrictions on sharing cultivation methods with everyone. Therefore, setting viewing permissions seems like putting the cart before the horse.

Could there be some hidden reason?

Just then, the narration appeared, interrupting Feng Qi's thoughts.

[You turn your head towards the 6 o'clock direction and discover danger is approaching!]

Upon hearing this, Feng Qi quickly turned his head and immediately saw a figure completely enveloped in black mist floating from the metal passage, entering the underground plaza.

Three eyes glowing with a scarlet light were faintly visible within the black mist. On the figure's forehead within the black mist, a twisted rune crystal was also imprinted.

Domain Creature?!

Although he had never encountered a Domain Creature before, he often heard teachers explain about them in class. He knew they had rune crystals imprinted on them and was aware of how terrifying their strength was.

"Narration, I need your help, give me some guidance!"

[Absolutely do not run, because your speed cannot compare to a Domain Creature. The correct approach is to make eye contact with it, stare intently, and then let out a loud howl of "What are you looking at?"... Hmm, this way you will die with more dignity!]

Feng Qi, who was staring intently at the Domain Creature as instructed, gradually became bewildered upon hearing the latter half of the narration.

Just then, the Domain Creature wrapped in black mist suddenly attacked. Its figure flickered, leaving afterimages, and it lunged towards him.

Waiting for death was not Feng Qi's character. He immediately clenched his fist and met the attack.

But before his fist could land, the sharp teeth within the black mist had already pierced his throat through the black mist.

The dense black mist quickly enveloped him, and his consciousness blurred.

Familiar chewing sounds echoed in his ears, and his vision gradually darkened...

Opening his eyes, he saw the gray-white ceiling. The laptop on the desk was still playing the video of "Basics of Cultivation Method Research".

Realizing he had returned to reality, Feng Qi let out a long sigh of relief.

Even after experiencing death once, the feeling of suffocation during the near-death experience still left him with lingering fear.

Turning his head, he saw Mo Fei diligently reviewing. The clock in the upper right corner showed it was 11:20 PM.

He clearly remembered that it was also this time when he was preparing to sleep for a while.

This meant that while he had spent so long in the future dream, the real-world time had actually stopped.

In addition, Feng Qi also found that he had become stronger again.

This time, he could clearly feel that his bloodline value had increased, and his whole body felt as if it had inexhaustible strength.

As his heart beat, blood flowed throughout his body, making a surging sound like a tide.

Just as he had guessed before, becoming stronger in the dream also resulted in synchronized feedback to his body in reality.
