The Black Book: Seven Deadly Sins-Chapter 155: You Rise by This, You Shall Fall by This!
Time passed like a fleeting white colt through a tiny crevice. Nearly two months of seclusion went by in a flash. On the day Zhu Haomiao opened his eyes, a vast torrent of memories surged into his soul like a tide, causing the corners of his mouth to involuntarily curl up.
I've made it!
While comprehending the profound power that penetrated his soul, the young man stood up from the bed and stretched lazily.
"Hmm~"
With the crisp sound of joints cracking, Zhu Haomiao comfortably exhaled a breath of foul air and looked at the Book of Black.
[Big Toad Qi]: LV.5→LV.6 (Perfect)
[Qi] +6
[God] +4
[Dexterity] +3
[Virtual Life] +50
[Hard Qi Skill]: LV.5→LV.6 (Perfect)
[Body] +7
[Strength] +3
[Essence] +3
[Virtual Life] +50
Two dazzling golden runes flickered like breathing on the Illusionary Page, with a faint seven-colored divine light seeping through the page, reflecting the same profound runes on the Reality Page at the back.
This is a symbol of the seeds of supernatural power permeating reality!
Virtual Life: 89→189
Noticing the significant change in Virtual Life, Zhu Haomiao's eyes suddenly brightened, and he instinctively looked at the True Page.
But to his disappointment, the Lifespan in reality had not changed, still at 89 years.
Hmm... it feels a bit like chicken ribs...
It's unlikely that I'll stay on the First Layer Heaven for 189 years...
After 189 years, even in reality, I'd be over 30!
Such a long Virtual Life might have some appeal for tourists, but for me...
I can't use it all up, not at all!
At most, after finishing the competition, I'll have to start preparing for the Ascension to the Second Layer Heaven...
Propping his chin, Zhu Haomiao's thoughts flowed, and he sighed in a rather Versailles way.
Then he realized that he had neglected the issue of the passage of life in the Illusion Realm, and the young man walked to a large full-body mirror to carefully examine his changes.
Compared to when he first entered the Illusion Realm, now he had shed his youthful naivety with a vibrant youthful vigor, matching perfectly with the passage of over two years in the Illusion Realm.
Is this the process of birth, aging, sickness, and death in the Illusion Realm?
Touching his face, Zhu Haomiao looked at the young man in the mirror and pursed his lips thoughtfully.
This phenomenon is like the reincarnation of Outer Heaven Demons in fantasy novels!
It's just that some descenders are "Mixed Fish Sky Demons," like those tourists who can only bully native mortals.
While some descenders are real "Demon Gods," as they grow, the entire Illusion Realm will be affected, possibly even bringing about world-ending calamities!
For example... myself!
Rubbing his cheek, Zhu Haomiao squinted his eyes and suddenly realized a certain detail.
Wait a minute!
Virtual Life seems like chicken ribs, but that's because I used shortcuts and saved a lot of hard cultivation time!
According to the virtual memories, each cultivation technique would take decades, so less than two hundred years of Virtual Life is far from enough!
Even with God's Destiny, if one can't accumulate breakthroughs before Virtual Life runs out, they would be forced to Ascend at a lower energy level or reincarnate in another Illusion Realm to cultivate again, thereby delaying Ascension!
And by the time of High Sky Rank, if one wants to ascend to the nine-layered heaven, Virtual Life is an extremely important resource!
In the First Layer Heaven with a tenfold time flow, it's not evident, but in High Sky Rank, where the time flow is hundreds, even thousands of times faster, decades of Virtual Life is equivalent to merely dozens of days in reality.
Even if there is no danger, "dying of old age" every few dozen days, who could handle that?
It should be known that "dying of old age" in the Illusion Realm is also a form of death!
If one "dies of old age" too often in the Illusion Realm, it would also affect the Life Span in reality!
In a daze, Zhu Haomiao gained a deeper understanding of Senior Sister Ye Wan Ning's previous warnings.
He also understood why the country was resolute in not relaxing the thresholds for entering the Illusion Realm.
Death in the Illusion Realm is not as harmless as it appears.
From visible energy level drops to invisible damage to the Dao Heart, Fate Grid impairments, and lifespan reduction...
Perhaps just one accidental death could put a Divine Son destined to ascend to High Sky into a vicious cycle of spiraling downwards...
Ultimately falling into the mud, reduced to a tourist-like ant scrambling at the bottom!
If ordinary people want to enter the Illusion Realm, they ought to have sufficient mental and physical preparation, solid extraordinary knowledge, and undergo rigorous training...
Otherwise, out of ten, nine will fall into the vicious cycle of death spirals, ultimately ending up as fate-level ants!
By then, not only would they gain little extraordinary power, but they would significantly damage their Life Span in reality!
Suddenly, Zhu Haomiao shuddered all over, as a conspiracy theory flashed across his mind.
Could part of the reason Western countries are so vigorously promoting "Illusion Realm freedom" be because of this?!
If you die a lot in the Illusion Realm, you won't even live to retirement age!
Crucially, one wouldn't realize the subtle changes when young, and by the time you regret it, it's too late...
Though a ridiculous thought, the more Zhu Haomiao pondered it, the colder he felt.
No... my brother...
Who is the original sin here?!!
As he seriously thought and carefully analyzed, Zhu Haomiao's scalp tingled more and more because this wasn't just baseless malicious speculation but was an experienced lesson from past and present lives!
They really would do such a thing!
Thinking of this, Zhu Haomiao couldn't help but exhale a long breath, sighing while shaking his head.
I often seem out of place because I am not wicked enough!
No!
The next time I return to reality to rest, I must tattoo an eagle on my back!
What's the original sin?!
From now on, you can just call me Little Zhuzhu...
As whimsical thoughts echoed in his mind, Zhu Haomiao shook his head with emotion, comparing what he had seen and heard in the Illusion Realm, and a bizarre sense of black humor absurdity welled up inexplicably.
The Angsa people are getting further along on the path of questioning Da Qing, understanding Da Qing, and becoming Da Qing...
This is a boomerang that has flown for over a hundred years...
In the darkness, Zhu Haomiao seemed to hear the dying words of the Yehe Nala clan...
You flourish with this means, and with this means, you shall perish!
