The Black Book

Boom!

In the magnificent light column with a diameter of several meters, the black-clothed boy floated slowly and uncontrollably. The energy ripples visible to the naked eye spread like tides, setting off endless ripples of time and space, and twisting the space within a radius of several kilometers.

After a long time, the overflowing divine flames converged inward, and Zhu Haomiao slowly fell, supporting the ground with one hand, and curling green smoke rose from his body.

Chi Chi Chi Chi~

Like cold water falling on a branding iron, the black-clothed boy was surrounded by mist, and hot energy breath spewed out from his mouth and nose. The dazzling high-temperature red light all over his body dimmed and subsided little by little.

"Hu~"

The bright red blood vessels on his face that burst and squirmed slowly converged. Zhu Haomiao stood up with difficulty and carefully examined his almost collapsed body.

He harvested the essence and sins of nearly a million people at one time. Such a huge power was poured into his body. If it weren't for his [body] attribute of more than 200 points, he would have burst and died long ago!

But even so, the infusion of arrogance and unreasonable power still caused him shocking damage. Almost every muscle and bone in his body was broken, and every cell was severely damaged.

Immediately, as the authority of [anger] faded, the morbid pleasure dissipated, and the shielded pain invaded the nerves in waves, causing Zhu Haomiao's pupils to tremble.

The intense signal reminded the body that it was on the verge of death. Zhu Haomiao's mind moved, and he released the authority of [lust]. The material nutrients in the empty stomach were quickly digested and absorbed, turning into a continuous flow of coolness throughout the body.

The huge vitality nourished the damaged cells, the piercing pain quickly faded, and the torn skin on the surface of the body began to scab and heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After stabilizing his injuries, Zhu Haomiao breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand and grabbed it, and a dark and heavy book instantly materialized in his palm and automatically spread out.

Looking at the information in the [Black Book], Zhu Haomiao's pupils trembled, and the corners of his mouth rose uncontrollably.

[Spirit]: +100

[Agility]: +100

[Strength]: +100

[Energy]: +100

[Qi]: +100

[Body]: +200 (100×200%)

His sight continued to move downward. In addition to the huge improvement in the six-dimensional attributes, what surprised Zhu Haomiao even more was the increase in the level of original sin.

[Anger]: LV.7→LV.9

To put it in the words of the game, the former is an improvement in [values], while the latter is a change in [mechanism]!

Many times, when facing the existence of Emperor Shitian, it is difficult for both sides to open up the gap in values. The key to determining victory or defeat is the competition at a higher level such as mechanism, law, authority, and status.

After sensing the power of LV.9 [Anger], a violent and crazy force like a volcano gathered in his heart, which frightened Zhu Haomiao and he quickly calmed down.

Concentrating his mind and calming his breath, the black-clothed boy took a slow and long deep breath. It took a long time to calm the anger in his heart, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

After just a moment of trying, Zhu Haomiao knew that with his body on the verge of collapse, he would explode on the spot without the enemy attacking him.

Guaranteed death!

Smacking his lips, Zhu Haomiao suppressed the throbbing in his chest, retracted his five fingers, and the open [Black Book] closed with a snap, and instantly disappeared in his palm.

The next second, agile figures appeared around him, "looking up" at the back of the black-clothed boy with shocked and awed eyes.

In the sea of ​​corpses and blood that stretched for dozens of miles, he was the only one standing proudly at this time.

In the dark, a cold and cruel majesty came over him. Although his body was not tall, it was as majestic as a mountain in the eyes of everyone, making people daunted and looking up to him.

Gurgle~

After swallowing his saliva, Huai Xu finally mustered up the courage and came up to report.

"Commander, the Jinyiwei Vanguard Army has completed the task of closing the net, and the first batch of 50,000 new troops have also arrived in Yongzhou..."

Hearing this, Zhu Haomiao turned around and nodded with a smile.

"Thank you for your hard work."

On the other side, seeing the wound on the boy's face that had not yet healed completely, Huai Xu glimpsed the bright flesh and blood under the wound like magma, and his heart was shocked.

Through those gaps, he seemed to have glimpsed the indescribable horror monster hidden under the boy's skin.

But before he could think about it, Zhu Haomiao's exposed skin wounds slowly closed, returning to his gentle and jade-like handsome appearance, and no longer seeing the terrible inner leaking through the wounds.

As if he had seen the devil wearing human skin, Huai Xu's eyes widened, and he seemed to understand something vaguely, and his scalp was numb.

Ignoring Huai Xu's wavering expression, Zhu Haomiao looked around and finally cast his eyes to the north.

"The main force of the Golden King's Court is on the westward expedition, and most of the forces left in the land have been wiped out by us. Now their nest must be very empty."

Hearing this, Bai Linglong on the side immediately understood his thoughts and couldn't help but speak.

"But the Golden King's Court is deep in the north of the desert. If the army goes to conquer, the supplies will definitely not be enough."

"No, there is no need for a large army. Select two thousand elites from the Jinyiwei, eat the enemy along the way, and follow me to attack Huanglong."

Clenching his fists, Zhu Haomiao looked far away to the north, grinning faintly.

"Emperor Shitian... It's your turn!"

………………

"What's going on?"

On the top of the towering snow-capped peak, in a gorgeous temple, more than a dozen monks sat together, their faces livid.

"Forget about those lowly people, how could hundreds of thousands of elite centaurs be wiped out suddenly? They were led by the Son of Destiny!"

"I don't understand. Mopu and his men died inexplicably. They just started fighting without knowing why."

"I heard that it seemed that the enemy put too much psychological pressure on them, which eventually led to the camp roar."

…………

Listening to the discussions of his colleagues, the leading monk couldn't help but speak up.

"Should we notify God?"

As soon as he said this, everyone else glared at him in unison.

"No!"

"God has just returned to reality to rest. Before leaving, he entrusted local affairs to us. How can we fail God's trust?"

Of course, everyone knew that this was just a grandiose rhetoric.

What they really worry about is that if you call the leader back right after he leaves, wouldn't that make you look incompetent?

How can you make progress in the future?

"It will take at least half a month for the news of the defeat on the front line to come back. We can take advantage of the time difference and discuss it with the eldest and third princes..."

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up.

"That's right, Hongjila underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, which led to the annihilation of the entire army. It has nothing to do with us."

As long as they unify their statements with the Son of Destiny who stayed behind and put all the blame on Hongjila, they can get themselves out of it.

At that time, even if the Lord of Heaven comes back, he can't blame them.
