The Black Book

"How many times have I told you! Don't mess around! Go get dressed!!"

"grumble!"

After driving Diaochang to get dressed, Zhu Haomiao rubbed her temples with a headache as she watched her bounding into the bedroom.

Immediately, his eyes swept around him, and when he met Li Cang's eyes, he found that he was unnaturally stiff and looked away, pretending to look around at the scenery. Zhu Haomiao suddenly had an even more headache.

So embarrassing...

So embarrassing...

However, the culprit on the side screamed heartlessly and excitedly.

“This dish seems to be glowing!”

Ye Wan Ning's delicate nostrils suddenly flapped twice, and she sniffed the aroma in the room. Her mouth was instantly filled with saliva, and she couldn't help but swallow.

"Xiao Shui, your cooking skills have improved again!"

Just by smelling the aroma, Ye Wan Ning knew that the food on this table was much better than what he had eaten before.

On the other side, looking at the LV.3 [Gluttony] on the [Black Book], Zhu Haomiao gathered his emotions and twitched the corners of his mouth calmly.

“Only a paramecium stands still.”

Hearing this, Ye Wan Ning frowned: "What do you mean? You are in Yin and Yang and I am a paramecium?!"

"…………"

"Sister, persecutory delusion is a mental illness. I suggest you see a doctor."

"You called me a psychopath?!"

"I'm not, I didn't."

"I don't care, what is tolerable is unbearable! Ouch!"

A few seconds later, Zhu Haomiao stared at the row of small tooth marks on the back of his hand, looking at Ye Wan Ning with a speechless look.

"Senior sister, if you want to bite someone, you can just say it, no need to beat around the bush."

"No, you are too pretentious, I must let you see the dangers of the world!"

Ye Wan Ning smacked her mouth with unfinished thoughts and bared her little tiger teeth at Zhu Haomiao. Her cute and cute appearance made the young man dumbfounded.

But after her gag, the suffocating awkward atmosphere in the room gradually dissipated, and everyone returned to the usual relaxed and natural atmosphere.

"Ji Fan! Ji Fan!"

After getting dressed, the little loli ran back anxiously, climbed onto the exclusive stool, and clumsily picked up the chopsticks.

Zhu Haomiao ate gracefully and unhurriedly, her strong [Taoist Heart] steadily suppressing the green divine light surging deep in her eyes.

Perhaps because of the enhanced effect of the extraordinary delicacies he had made, Zhu Haomiao vaguely noticed that the LV.3 level [Gluttony] was more difficult to suppress, and he even felt a little strenuous.

Deliberately suppressing the speed of chewing, Zhu Haomiao distracted himself and suddenly heard Ye Wan Ning's chat.

"Xiao Shui, you just said on the phone that you had something to do in the morning. Is there something urgent?"

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao put down his chopsticks and shook his head.

"It's not urgent. I'm going to go to the Imperial Capital [Yanhuang Arsenal] to consult about the Second Heaven."

Hearing this, Ye Wan Ning instantly caught the implication, and then thought about the drastic changes in his body, her eyes widened in shock.

"You ascended?!!"

Zhu Haomiao glanced at Ye Wan Ning in surprise. He didn't expect her to be so sharp. Zhu Haomiao nodded calmly.

"Um."

"Isn't the [Ascension Tournament] just halfway through? Why are you..."

Seeing Ye Wan Ning hesitate to speak, Zhu Haomiao chuckled and shook his head.

"There was a little accident, and I couldn't hold it back, so I was forced to ascend."

"Forced? You have only been promoted to hegemony for a few days? Have you already reached the limit of the plane?!"

"Uh... To be precise, he exceeded the limit of the plane, and then he was forced to use all his strength in the battle, and then he was ejected from the first layer..."

Listening to the young man's gentle words, Ye Wan Ning blinked her eyes, bit her pink lips, and looked at Li Cang with a sad look on her face.

"Obviously he was just talking about things, but I still felt like he was pretending."

Li Cang swallowed the food with an expressionless face and murmured lightly: "Invisible pretense is the most deadly."

"Damn! He is so strong that he will be rejected by the laws of the plane. Even if it is only the first level, only a very few top hegemons can do it..."

Staring at Zhu Haomiao's handsome face, Ye Wan Ning felt an inexplicable itching in her mouth, and she couldn't help but start grinding her teeth.

Hearing Ye Wan Ning's malicious teeth grinding sound, Zhu Haomiao hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but add.

"Um...senior sister, I am not ascending to hegemony."

"What?"

Hearing this, Ye Wan Ning and Li Cang looked at Zhu Haomiao at the same time, their beautiful eyes full of confusion.

"Well, I ascended with the [Abyss Energy Level]. It seems to be the first one in human history."

With that said, Zhu Haomiao took off the [Dragon Emblem] from under his coat, put it on the table and gently pushed it in front of the two of them.

Staring at the black iron badge consisting of two divine dragons surrounding a red calligraphy seal, the two of them could not help but slowly widen their eyes.

The two dragons represent his position in the second heaven, but the color of one of the divine dragon reliefs is subtly different from the black iron color on the other side, which symbolizes his energy level when he ascends to the first heaven!

Carefully picking up the [Dragon Emblem] and observing it carefully, the two found that as the angle changed, the interior of the black divine dragon seemed to seal the boundless sea of ​​stars, and the dark and deep color seemed to suck in the soul of the observer!

"[Abyss Energy Level]... actually exists?"

After swallowing her saliva, Ye Wan Ning was so shocked that her eyes were blinded, but Li Cang on the side quickly suppressed his throbbing and returned the [Dragon Emblem] to Zhu Haomiao.

"I didn't expect that the colors of [Abyss] and [Black Iron] are so similar. If you don't observe them closely, you can't tell them apart at all."

With a sigh, Li Cang looked directly into Zhu Haomiao's eyes and whispered solemnly.

"Refine the [Dragon Emblem] into your body as soon as possible, don't show it easily, be careful of the [Void Sect]."

Hearing the strange name again, Zhu Haomiao frowned slightly.

"Void Sect?! Is it some kind of cult?"

Hearing the boy's doubts, Li Cang and Ye Wanning looked at each other in embarrassment, and after a long time, they made up their minds and explained with gritted teeth.

"Strictly speaking, the [Void Sect] is not a religious organization in the traditional sense, but a general term for individuals and groups who follow a certain concept!"

Accurately aware of the crux of the problem, Zhu Haomiao frowned deeper and deeper.

"What concept?"

"Alas..."

With a sigh, Ye Wanning carefully considered the words and spoke slowly.

"Xiaoshui, you are now a qualified extraordinary person, so have you ever thought about the relationship between reality and fantasy?"

Blinking his eyes, Zhu Haomiao shook his head in confusion.

He didn't even learn all the common sense of the ordinary extraordinary, so how could he have time to think about such metaphysical questions.

"You are still young, it is normal that you don't have such deep thinking, but since ancient times, many sages have thought about this problem."

"Where does the fantasy world come from? Is it a fragment of history, a projection of the human mind, or some kind of parallel world..."

"But with the development of research, a deeper and fatal problem is placed in front of everyone."
