Black Book

Chapter 156 My life is like walking on thin ice...

After a sigh, Zhu Haomiao shook his head, put aside all distracting thoughts, moved his gaze, and looked at his six-dimensional attributes.

[God]: 37→47
[Agility]: 37 → 42
[Strength]: 44 → 53
【Essence】：39→46
[Qi]: 43 → 53 (6) ↑
【Body】：44→54(2)↑
Except for [Qi] and [Ti], all other attributes have been digested.

Zhu Haomiao clenched his fists, and slightly gathered his strength and energy. The energy in his meridians roared like a rushing river, and his whole body was filled with a slight bloating and pain that could not be relieved.

【Big Toad Qi】!
goo~
A hazy shadow invisible to the naked eye enveloped Zhu Haomiao's body, like a toad crawling on the ground with its chest and abdomen puffed up. The entire underground space was echoing with the faint and distant toad cry.

Gollum~
Gollum~
The young man took a slow and long deep breath and moved it around his body. The sound of toads in his ears became louder and louder, and finally he couldn't help but look at his chest and abdomen.

His entire chest and abdomen moved rhythmically with his breathing, and the thunder-like sound of a toad came from his internal organs.

That was the sound of the internal energy flowing at high speed through the meridians, cleansing the internal organs and removing toxins. The organs made strange noises when they moved...

The perfect state of [Big Toad Qi] seems to have strengthened all the internal organs, increasing their operating efficiency several times. No wonder it can increase one's virtual lifespan by 50 years!
Moreover, the extraordinary power of this technique can also be cultivated in reality. Although it may not achieve the effect in the fantasy realm, it should still be able to prolong life...

It is worthy of being [Current Selection]!
Carefully feeling the changes in his body, Zhu Haomiao turned his gaze to his hands.

boom!
He clenched his fists and gathered his strength, letting the energy flow through his body. A barely detectable metallic luster appeared on his skin, and his muscles rolled and squirmed, becoming tangled and taut like steel wires.

【Hard Qigong】!
dong dong dong~
When he hit his chest with his fist, the feedback felt like hitting a solid block of iron. In a trance, Zhu Haomiao had the illusion that he was indestructible!
The defense of the perfected [Hard Qigong] has soared again, it is round and integrated, without any weak spots. Combined with the 54-point [Body] attribute, ordinary small-caliber bullets will definitely not be able to penetrate it. I just don't know if it can withstand the attack of armor-piercing bullets?
But at the same time, the vague oppression that was originally lingering around his body became more and more obvious.

The young man felt something in his heart, and he looked up into the void. His sight penetrated the cover of time and space and glimpsed some kind of critical repression.

The world has become more restraining towards me!

It seems... that the threshold of hegemony has been touched...

Feeling something in his heart, Zhu Haomiao released his strength and smiled lightly with satisfaction.

In just less than three virtual years, he reached the peak of gold, which was much faster than he expected.

I originally thought that I would have to wait until the later stages of the [Ascension Competition] to catch up with the progress of the main group, but I didn't expect things to be so simple and smooth...

Shaking his head with emotion, Zhu Haomiao walked out of the "mausoleum" and prepared to go to the [Yanhuang Arsenal] to inspect and relax.

I have been practicing in seclusion for nearly two months without caring about worldly affairs. I don’t know whether Senior Brother Wang and Senior Brother Feng are working well...

After opening the heavy bronze door, Zhu Haomiao suddenly remembered something and turned to look at the desk.

At the end of the sight, a slender sword in completely black color lay quietly.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Zhu Haomiao turned back to the house, tied the black sword around his waist, and nodded with satisfaction.

Very good, it matches my temperament very well, and makes me look 10 points more handsome...

Wearing the sword, the boy left the remote safe house and headed straight for the Shanghai Public Concession.

Dozens of minutes later, after passing through a water-film-like barrier, the deserted hall of the Yanhuang Arsenal came into view.

Looking around in surprise, Zhu Haomiao frowned, vaguely feeling that something might have happened...

He arrived at the top-floor office without any obstruction, and under the guidance of the secretary, he met Feng Zhaobai who was busy working.

"Brother Feng, why is there no one downstairs?"

Seeing Zhu Haomiao, Feng Zhaobai breathed a sigh of relief, put down the documents in his hand and smiled.

"The resurrection match is over, so the players will naturally disperse."

"Ah? It's over? Then has the next stage of the competition started?"

"........."

After a few seconds of silence, Feng Zhaobai didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"You didn't read the message from the organizing committee?"

"Uh... I've been concentrating on retreat during this period..." "Oh? How are the results?"

"Not bad, both [Big Toad Qi] and [Hard Qigong] are perfect."

Hearing the boy's plain words, which sounded like he was talking about how many buns he had for lunch, Feng Zhaobai couldn't help but look at him deeply, even though he was mentally prepared.

Every step you take is destroying the three perspectives of a normal extraordinary person...

Fortunately, Wang Hua was not at home because he was on a business trip.

And I have a strong [heart of Tao]!
You can't scare me!

Feng Zhaobai nodded calmly, and just as I expected, he pursed his lips in a nonchalant manner, revealing a calm smile that shows a teachable child.

"good."

"By the way, Senior Brother Feng, I seem to have touched the threshold of hegemony!"

However, when he heard Zhu Haomiao's next words, the nonchalant smile on Feng Zhaobai's face suddenly disappeared.

"What the hell?!"

"Hegemony, I feel the bottleneck of hegemony!"

"........."

Feng Zhaobai rested his elbows on the table, crossed his fingers and pressed them against his mouth and nose, and fell into deep silence.

After a long time, he asked in a dry voice.

"Junior Brother Zhu, when did you advance to the gold level?"

"Uh...it seemed like a few months, or maybe a year ago. I didn't pay attention."

"........."

There was another long silence. Feng Zhaobai leaned back in his chair and stared at the ceiling with empty eyes.

I have worked diligently all my life, treading on thin ice...

This brat is going to catch up with me in three years?!
Judging from the real time, he has only been practicing for three months! !

No... Why?? ! !
"Brother Feng, is there any problem?"

Seeing Feng Zhaobai's appearance, Zhu Haomiao thought that he was growing too fast, his foundation was unstable, and there were hidden dangers, so he suddenly became nervous.

Feng Zhaobai forced himself to cheer up and revealed a bitter smile.

"No problem, I just suddenly feel a little tired..."

"Oh, Brother Feng, you really work hard. Every time I come, you are working."

Zhu Haomiao breathed a sigh of relief, nodded in agreement, and gave good advice.

"You should rest well when you need to. The textbooks suggest that you should rest once you get up. Don't work yourself up."

"........."

After a moment's silence, Feng Zhaobai couldn't help but ask.

"You have always been [One on, One off]?"

"Yes, isn't it written in the textbook?"

Rubbing his brows in pain, Feng Zhaobai suddenly had the illusion that he had lived a dog's life all his life.

I originally thought you got to the top by working overtime, but I didn't expect you actually work from 007 to every day and have weekends off? ! ! !
