My Apocalypse System Arrives 10 Years Early

Chapter 287: Chapter 210: Sister Yao’s First Superpower, the Other Two Girls Are Losing Their Minds

After returning, Li Xiang soaked in the tub. He also took out the two sets of Armor and rinsed them with warm water. Seawater is corrosive, and while it couldn’t possibly damage Extraordinary Items, it wouldn’t get them clean because of its high salt content and other impurities.

He went back to sleep for a bit, and around ten o’clock, the three girls showed up at his door.

After chatting for a while, Li Xiang went with them to their room. He stored their luggage and the three Vine Sticks in his system’s warehouse. He then gave each of them a Spirit Fruit to eat and answered some of their questions about Cultivation. Afterward, the four of them checked out of the hotel to go sightseeing, sample local delicacies, and buy some regional specialties.

Around evening, they took a bus to Kuala Lumpur and checked into a hotel there. The journey was only about a hundred kilometers.

Li Xiang had barely slept for days and was feeling a bit tired, so he took the night off and caught up on his sleep at the hotel.

The next day, they checked out of their hotel rooms and toured Kuala Lumpur together, visiting popular spots like the Black Wind Cave, the Twin Towers, the Mosque, Petaling Street, and Merdeka Square. The three girls were all dressed up beautifully. After developing Spiritual Power, their looks had all improved.

But a true enhancement would probably have to wait until they condensed a Spiritual Power Vortex.

Besides, their Cultivation would also improve their figures.

Malaysia’s Musang King durian is in a class of its own and sold widely in Kuala Lumpur. The ones from Pahang State are considered the best quality, practically a national treasure of a fruit. Li Xiang and the three girls ate until they were stuffed.

Li Xiang had a mysterious warehouse. Since he often made items like Spirit Fruits ”appear” out of thin air, there was no point in hiding it from the three girls. He just hadn’t told them the details, so they had no idea what his warehouse was like or how large its capacity was.

But when they saw Li Xiang intermittently visit different shops and buy over a hundred large Musang King durians in total, they were stunned. ’His Spatial Treasure is that big? It can hold that many?’

There are several stories about how the Musang King durian got its name. One of the more interesting ones comes from the Malaysian civet cat. The Malay word for civet is ”musang,” which sounds like the Chinese ”māo shān” (猫山), meaning ”cat mountain.”

These civets, with their sensitive and picky noses, are experts at identifying high-quality durians. Malaysians would present a ripe, intact durian that had fallen from the tree but hadn’t split open to a caged ”musang.” The civet would then sniff it to judge its quality. If the ”musang” became excited after smelling it, the durian was deemed a top-grade ”Musang King.”

Besides Musang King durians, Li Xiang also bought many other fruits, like papaya. Malaysian papayas are also exceptional, with tender, sweet, and juicy flesh.

Then there was a fruit called cempedak. It has a rough exterior and golden-yellow flesh inside. The texture is similar to jackfruit but sweeter, and a single bite floods your senses with a tropical flair.

Additionally, there were salak (snake fruit), mangosteen, sapodilla, rambutan, langsat, and sugar-apple.

He would take them back for his granny and Jiang Cai’Er to try.

Jiang Cai’Er needed no explanation, but as for Granny Li Xiang, given her age, he could easily cover it up by saying he bought them online or brought them back from the provincial capital.

Around 9:30 that night, the four of them boarded their flight home.

It was a direct flight from Kuala Lumpur to Rongcheng, a four-and-a-half-hour trip, with tickets costing only about a thousand yuan per person.

If it weren’t for the chaos in Southeast Asia, it would honestly be a pretty affordable travel destination. Plus, when traveling abroad, you don’t get the same massive, shoulder-to-shoulder crowds as you do at domestic attractions.

If you go to a big city like the Imperial Capital, you can’t even get into many attractions unless you book six, seven, or even eight or nine days in advance. The Imperial Capital will teach any tourist who doesn’t book ahead a harsh lesson!

But in Southeast Asia, it wasn’t as simple as just being taught a lesson.

They landed in Rongcheng at 2:30 AM. Thankfully, they didn’t have to wait for luggage, or it would have taken much longer.

Their seven-seater van was parked in the underground garage. The four of them headed straight there, and Lei Xiaohui drove them to the hotel they had booked in advance. Again, they got two rooms.

”We’re finally back! This is great!” Lying on the large hotel beds, the three girls felt completely relaxed. Closing their eyes, they could feel the Spiritual Power surging within them. San Niu, in particular, felt like she was in a dream.

The next morning, around nine o’clock, Yao Yao came to Li Xiang’s room. She had tried to sneak in, but Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui followed right behind her, giving her no chance to be alone with Li Xiang.

”Yao Yao, trying to do something naughty behind our backs again?” Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui teased as they entered.

Yao Yao tilted her head back and said proudly, ”I was going to put on a little show for Brother, but since you want to watch, you can watch together. Just don’t have a meltdown when you see it.”

”Haha, us? Have a meltdown?”

”Stop being so mysterious and just show us already!”

The two girls urged her on, completely unconvinced. ’It’s probably just some new dance she made up. That’s supposed to make us have a meltdown? Not a chance.’

Li Xiang was curious too. ”I’m looking forward to it,” he said.

”Watch closely! Grow!” With a slight sway of her delicate body, Yao Yao shot up in height, becoming as tall as Li Xiang.

Everyone was surprised. They stared, observing closely, and saw that her legs had gotten longer. Before, she was the shortest, just barely over 1.6 meters, the one with the ”short legs.” But now, she suddenly had legs for days!

A goddess of legs!

”Oh my god, how did you do that?”

”That’s possible?”

Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui were stunned.

Li Xiang was dumbfounded too.

Truthfully, among the girls, Lei Xiaohui was naturally the tallest at around 1.8 meters, followed by Luo Feifei in the 1.7-meter range. Next were Jiang Cai’Er and Zhao Xueqing, who were about the same at 1.67 and 1.68 meters, respectively. Yao Yao was only about 1.62 meters with shoes on; without them and with her hair bun down, it wasn’t certain if she even reached 1.6 meters.

Aside from Luo Feifei and Jiang Cai’Er, who were still young and might still sprout another centimeter or two, the other three girls were over twenty, so their chances of growing any taller were minuscule.

But who would have known? With a slight sway, Yao Yao was suddenly as tall as Li Xiang. With another sway—holy crap—she was taller than both Li Xiang and Lei Xiaohui. Before their astonished eyes, Yao Yao swayed one more time and her head touched the ceiling.

”You’ve condensed a Spiritual Power Vortex and awakened your first Superpower?” Li Xiang asked in amazement.

The other two girls also realized what had happened, their eyes wide with astonishment. At the same time, they felt a little crushed!

’Yao Yao was the last of us to develop Spiritual Power, so how did she get ahead of us? Still, this ability is just so-so. It’s not very practical.’

Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui could only console themselves with that thought.

”Yao Yao, you can call off the Divine Techniques now,” Lei Xiaohui joked. ”You’re so tall we’re getting sore necks from looking up at you.”

So, Yao Yao slowly swayed her way back down, returning to her short-legged self.

Zhao Xueqing laughed. ”From now on, you won’t even need beauty filters to stretch your legs in videos. A natural leg-lengthening goddess!” Her voice was filled with envy.

”Hehe, you think that’s all?” Yao Yao gave a smug smile and said again, ”Grow!”

Whoa! Her arms grew longer, encircling all three of them.

Then, she demonstrated other things.

”Bigger!” Her chest swelled up.

A faint tearing sound was heard. Yao Yao looked a little embarrassed and said, ”This isn’t my limit. My bra is just too small. Any bigger and my clothes would rip.”

She gave up on that demonstration and performed her ”Boneless Technique” instead.

Her whole body became soft and pliant, as if she had no bones. She could strike all sorts of incredible poses, like a boneless beauty, even curling into a ball upside down. Various yoga and dance moves came to her effortlessly.

”Oh my god!”

Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui were truly crushed. If it had been any other ability, they would have been bummed but not too bothered. But a perversely powerful ability like this? What man could possibly resist?

They snuck a peek at Li Xiang and noticed he was completely hooked. However, the expression vanished from his face in a flash, and he quickly returned to normal.

But not before Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui had seen it!

Zhao Xueqing felt immense pressure. She thought to herself, ’Yao Yao’s ability is too shameless, too lewd! Brother is going to be seduced by her sooner or later. How am I supposed to compete with her in the future?’

’I want to awaken a Superpower too, but I have no idea what my first one will be.’ Still, Lei Xiaohui felt, ’my Superpower will definitely be more respectable than Yao Yao’s. Hers is just... too wild. She’s already a wild one, and now she’s awakened such a wild Superpower. She’s going to be unstoppable!’

Li Xiang couldn’t help but ask, ”What exactly is this Superpower of yours called?”

Yao Yao recalled her ”Divine Techniques” and said smugly, ”It’s called the Transformation Technique. It’s just that my Cultivation isn’t high enough, so I can’t do a lot of the complex transformations.”

”Wait for me. I need to prepare a bit, then I’ll show you one last thing.”

So, they all waited patiently for her.

After a minute, Yao Yao’s form began to change. About three minutes later, she looked just like Zhao Xueqing.

”You...” Zhao Xueqing was aghast, as if she were looking at a mirror image of herself.

A moment later, Yao Yao changed to look like Lei Xiaohui. Another moment, and she looked like Luo Feifei. Then she cycled through the faces of several other female celebrities.

Ever-changing, it was absolutely incredible.

Li Xiang was truly flabbergasted!

But, just as Yao Yao had said, her Cultivation was insufficient. Even transforming into another human required several minutes of preparation, and the change itself was rather slow.

”If you cultivate to a higher level, you should be able to transform into any living creature,” Li Xiang said. ”Unfortunately, my Achievement Points can only be used to upgrade my own Attributes; there’s no option to upgrade my teammates.”

Otherwise, if he could just dump a few hundred thousand points into Yao Yao, she might be able to turn into a bird or a mermaid.

Even so, Yao Yao’s Superpower was quite formidable. It was a perfect skillset for being a secret agent or a spy.

”Oh my god, you’re too much!”

As women, Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui understood all too well the terrifying power of being able to freely change faces, contort limbs, and perfectly sculpt one’s body. Their defenses were completely shattered; they were truly on the verge of a breakdown.

’I haven’t even used my ultimate moves yet,’ Yao Yao thought. ’My tongue can get longer and even split. And other parts can change in all sorts of ways, too.’

But that was too perverse and not suitable for a public demonstration. Besides, seeing that Zhao Xueqing and Lei Xiaohui were so crushed they looked like they were about to break, Yao Yao stopped showing off. Instead, she tried to comfort them: ”Actually, this skill isn’t practical at all. Don’t be jealous. Your talent is better than mine, so you’ll definitely be able to condense a Spiritual Power Vortex and awaken a Superpower, too.”
