40: Chapter 40 Freemasonry
Ji Yebai is a very patient person.
This can be said to be his greatest strength.
The fact that he was able to win over the Young Miss of the Nangong Family back then was also due to this advantage.
Moreover, whether it was this life or the previous one, the reason for his smooth promotion in his work was also because of this.
According to his original nature, since he discovered that suppressing a Breakthrough and thickening his foundation would bring benefits, he would definitely choose to Breakthrough only after he could no longer suppress it.
But the current situation left Ji Yebai with no choice.
He could imagine it.
If he did not leave, his every move would be under the surveillance of the Security Bureau.
And every track would be recorded.
It would be fine for a short time.
If he waited for the recovery of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and the Security Bureau discovered that some of his actions were unexplainable, then some bad things would definitely happen.
This point did not even need to be considered.
Ji Yebai sighed softly.
He collected his thoughts and began to adjust his mindset.
Even though the Breakthrough felt like things falling into place, Ji Yebai did not dare to be the slightest bit careless.
Two days passed just like that.
It was night.
The bright moon hung high.
Ji Yebai sat cross-legged.
He specifically chose the night.
Internal Energy circulated, and a five-colored halo covered his whole body.
The five elements spirit beads in front of him, under stimulation, also emitted a five-colored precious light, slowly floating in mid-air.
Inhale!
Ji Yebai took a sharp breath.
Like a whale swallowing water, he made the surrounding air rush into his lungs.
It was not just that.
The Five Elements Energy spat out by the five elements spirit beads was also sucked into his lungs along with it.
Ji Yebai continuously absorbed the Five Elements Energy of the five elements spirit beads.
The five elements spirit beads seemed inexhaustible, continuously spitting out Five Elements Power.
It also seemed endless as it surged toward Ji Yebai's body.
However, the Five Elements Energy, which was enough to make an ordinary Third-rate Martial Artist explode and die, acted like clay oxen entering the sea after entering Ji Yebai's body; it did not stir up a single ripple and was instantly refined by the Five Elements cycle within Ji Yebai's body.
Three hours passed!
Boom!!!
The five-colored halo around Ji Yebai's body suddenly brightened and then abruptly collapsed.
The entire cave was suddenly filled with wind.
Endless Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, suspected to be the collapse of the Nine Heavens Milky Way, crazily surged toward Ji Yebai's body.
For a moment, the air seemed to become a singularity.
The surrounding Spiritual Qi rushed over.
The air became heavy.
And Ji Yebai suddenly opened his eyes.
"Drink!"
He shouted explosively.
The Five Elements Power of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth erupted instantly.
Boom!!!
The entire cave shook.
The surging Spiritual Qi was immediately interrupted, and chaotic winds arose for a time.
After a full five minutes, the air finally calmed down.
"Internal Energy is endless; is this the Realm of a Second-rate Martial Artist?"
Ji Yebai stood up slowly, his expression excited.
At this moment, he could clearly feel the Spiritual Qi in the air.
And he could also feel the interaction between his body and Heaven and Earth.
That was over two hundred Acupoints breathing in the power of Heaven and Earth.
Ji Yebai punched out suddenly.
Boom!
A wave of air exploded, and the entire air trembled incessantly.
Ji Yebai's eyes lit up.
This punch, when thrown out, actually pulled on the Spiritual Qi in the air.
His own strength, plus the blessing of the power of Heaven and Earth in the air, produced an effect where one plus one is greater than two.
And that was not all; as his Acupoints opened and closed, the Internal Energy he consumed was actually replenished.
"No wonder ten Third-rate Martial Artists are no match for one Second-rate."
"This gap is simply too huge!"
Ji Yebai felt the subtleties in his body and was amazed.
Pure power of Heaven and Earth poured into his body through the Acupoints, which could greatly replenish Internal Energy.
As long as you refine it quickly, your Internal Energy replenishes quickly.
"If this drags on long enough, even the most Genius Third-rate Martial Artist could be dragged down by the worst Second-rate!"
"And for a Third-rate Martial Artist to fight against a Second-rate, they must have enough explosive martial arts or ultimate moves, and can only fight for victory in a short time."
Ji Yebai's thoughts fluctuated.
Before, he had also seen the power of a Second-rate Martial Artist.
He had even seen the detailed explanation of the Second-rate Realm in the General Outline of Martial Arts.
But this concrete experience was completely different.
"Read ten thousand books, travel ten thousand miles!"
"Sure enough, only by experiencing it personally can one understand this kind of power!"
Ji Yebai sighed softly.
He constantly felt the endless energy in his body.
Now, he was far more than ten times stronger than before.
Thinking of this, Ji Yebai finally understood the terror of the five elements spirit beads.
According to the General Outline of Martial Arts from his previous life.
Breaking through to become a Second-rate Martial Artist generally increases one's strength by two or three times, which is considered a Genius.
Those who can increase it by more than five times belong to the Prodigy category.
But now.
Ji Yebai, with such trash roots and Aptitude, actually increased by ten times.
"Strengthening the internal organs, refining blood and changing organs, and then continuously improving body strength; this path is simply too perfect!"
Ji Yebai's heart pounded.
From today on, he was a Second-rate Martial Artist.
Bang!
He tapped his toe.
A pebble bounced up instantly.
Ji Yebai punched out.
Whoosh!
The pebble turned into a phantom, flashed away, and instantly shot out of the cave.
After a few seconds, Ji Yebai moved his ears and nodded with satisfaction.
If anyone were on the opposite mountain at this moment, they would be surprised to find a pebble embedded exactly in an old tree trunk.
The direction was facing the cave.
And the distance was a thousand meters away.
...
Meanwhile.
Far across the ocean.
An ancient castle was located in a quiet place.
Deep, secret.
Unknown to others.
This was the gathering place of the Freemasonry.
In the main hall, two rows of long dining tables were seated with more than twenty figures eating.
These figures were all extremely tall.
Nearly two meters, or even over two meters.
Each one was like a muscle monster, making them look somewhat creepy.
The most surprising thing.
Was the person sitting in the main seat; he was slender, about 1.8 meters tall.
Among a group of muscle monsters no less than NBA height, he looked particularly small.
But, although his figure was thin, his expression was exceptionally majestic.
"Victor!"
"Your strength is the weakest, but your speed is extremely fast. This time, I will send you to check it out!"
Morgan Duke slowly raised his head, his deep pupils staring at a muscle man below.
The scarlet glint that flashed in his eyes from time to time made Victor tremble, and he stood up immediately.
"Master Chairman, my strength is far inferior to even Hansen Cornell. Will I ruin your affairs if I go over there!?"
Victor smiled obsequiously.
Morgan Duke was the Chairman of the Freemasonry and also a proper Baron.
And the most important thing was that his strength was unfathomable.
It was even terrifyingly incomparable.
Even an Evolved Person like himself might not be able to withstand a single move from him.
He had personally seen Chairman Morgan tear apart Evolved warriors more than once.
Victor had self-knowledge.
Someone like him, an Evolved Person who focused on speed, was definitely no match for the Chairman.
Morgan glanced at him and said indifferently: "I am letting you go just to have you find out the process of Hansen Cornell's arrest and see if that country has violated the contract and used large-scale weapons."
"In addition, check why Hansen Cornell insisted on going to that country; what did he discover!?"
Morgan elegantly cut a piece of bloody meat and chewed it calmly.
That elegance was innate.
But at this moment, in Victor's eyes.
It made him shiver.
A few days ago, news came that Hansen Cornell had been taken down.
This made them all a little surprised.
Hansen Cornell had very powerful strength.
Nicknamed Angry Lion!
Reasonably speaking, it was not that there were no people in the world who could steadily win against Hansen Cornell one-on-one, but they were definitely few and far between.
But such a person had actually been taken down silently.
The news that came out was that he was beaten down by someone with one punch.
This made it a bit unbelievable.
They once suspected that the country had violated the contract and used large-scale weapons of mass destruction.
And this was what they were worried about.
More than a year ago, they gathered various tycoons from around the world to coerce governments of various countries together.
Eventually, they jointly signed the "Twenty-One Articles for Evolved Persons".
One of the articles clearly stipulated that Evolved Persons could not be arrested or slaughtered at will; it also stipulated that unless they were guilty of heinous crimes, large-scale thermal weapons could not be used.
That country was a major power. If they used thermal weapons first to arrest Hansen Cornell, it would likely break this Evolved Person contract.
Victor wanted to refuse.
However, just as he looked up.
He saw Morgan's cold gaze fixed on him.
The gaze was incredibly cold, like a corpse.
Accompanied by the elegant chewing, the atmosphere became even heavier.
Victor shivered and immediately bowed slightly: "Okay, Chairman!"
"Remember!"
Morgan Duke reminded: "Your primary task is to investigate. Do not violate the laws of that country. If you are detained and delay matters because of your own stupidity, don't blame me for being merciless!"
"Yes!"
Victor's body trembled, and he hurriedly replied.
Seeing this, Morgan lowered his head and continued to cut the flesh on his plate.
The atmosphere fell silent.
Seeing this, Victor breathed a sigh of relief, put down his cutlery, and turned to walk out.
At this point, some figures in the hall raised their heads and looked at Victor's back with disdain.
