Her somber mood, caused by the devastating news that Little Silver Flower's life was counting down, eased slightly. Mingxi ruffled Lan Yue's bright head.
"To have comprehended an individual combination skill at the initial stage, you've brought such honor to our Old Ming family!"
Combination skills usually appear in doubles and team matches, completed jointly by two or more Transcendent creatures.
For a single pet beast like Lan Yue to independently complete a combination skill is extremely rare; this type of combination skill is also called an individual combination skill.
Pet beasts capable of successfully completing an individual combination skill generally need to meet two conditions.
First, they must possess dual or multiple attributes.
Second, their strength must at least exceed Advanced Level, with General-level as the minimum.
Lan Yue satisfied the first condition, but there was still a huge Golden Yuanbao separating her from meeting the second.
You tell her, isn't she bringing honor to her family?
Golden Yuanbao was already at its Advanced Level limit, and she hadn't even thought of having it practice combination skills, yet Lan Yue had already achieved a curve overtake.
This display was so impressive, even Rune Mage Ryze would have to say 'Respect!'
"Ice Soul."
The iceberg revealed a foolish smile.
Meanwhile, Golden Yuanbao, who was off to the side, fell into deep thought.

And Little Silver Flower?
Oh, it was already blowing snot bubbles of peaceful years inside her hood.
So large-hearted, a single pot couldn't stew it all.
Leaving the Time Realm, they returned to the pitch-black underground.
Mingxi finally had the presence of mind to observe her surroundings.
She retrieved a super-powerful illuminating lamp from the Time Realm.
The moment she pressed the switch, the previously dim underground lit up like day.
The mysterious veil of this underground space was lifted.
"Wow!"
Mingxi couldn't help but exclaim in awe.
The sight before her was breathtaking.
Countless crystalline ice crystals stood upright, each with a different posture; some resembled inverted icicles, extending straight down to the ground;
Others grew in clusters like newly sprouted bamboo shoots, closely connected.
Under the lamplight, these ice crystals displayed a myriad of colors, dazzling and Colorful.
Some were red, like burning flames;
Some were blue, like the deep ocean;
And others were green, resembling a vibrant forest...
Each piece was so beautiful, making one intoxicated and unable to extricate themselves.
The crystals also emitted a faint glow from within, like scattered stars falling into this underground space, creating a dreamlike atmosphere.
Mingxi recalled the kaleidoscope of colors that flashed before her eyes just before she fainted, thinking it was a deathbed hallucination... freēwebnovel.com
"Turns out it's an ice jade crystal cluster."
Mingxi sighed with emotion, unable to resist touching the coin-sized bald spot on the back of her head.
It turned out she had been 'injured' by an ice jade crystal.
Honestly, this was absolutely a blessing in disguise!
If she had landed on one of those one or two-meter-long pointed bamboo-shoot-shaped ice jade crystals, instead of a newly grown small crystal piece,
She would have been skewered like char siu, rather than just having a large hole in the back of her head.
Ice jade crystal, as the name suggests, is ice, is jade, and is also a crystal.
It only appears in perpetually frozen regions like the Icefield Sea.
When rooted in place, ice jade crystals are as hard as a King-level steel-attribute Transcendent creature.
So even if Lan Yue practiced her combination skills frantically here, shattering herself to pieces, the surrounding environment remained largely undamaged.
Because ice jade crystals are not easily shattered.
However, once they leave their native growing area, they immediately become unsuited to the new environment.
They will melt and evaporate in no time.
Even with high-tech special containers, they cannot be preserved.
Therefore, ice jade crystals are essentially just a beautiful, but otherwise useless, embroidered pillow.
They cannot be taken away, nor can they be used.
Many practical-minded people rate ice jade crystals as the most ostentatious and impractical species in the interstellar realm.
"Such a large area of ice jade crystals is also quite rare. If this place were exposed, the Icefield Sea would probably become a tourist destination."
Although ice jade crystals are ostentatious and impractical, the world is never short of people who prioritize aesthetics.
All known discovered ice jade crystal clusters have been specifically ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ cordoned off, developed and constructed by official bodies or capital, and have ultimately become famous tourist attractions.
As far as Mingxi knew, the largest ice jade crystal cluster on Blue Star was in the Komo Ice Mountain of the Carter Nation, with an officially announced area of 329 square meters.
Mingxi couldn't be sure of the exact size of this underground ice jade crystal cluster, but it was definitely over two hundred square meters.
It's a pity she had no money, otherwise, as the first discoverer, she would have priority—
As Mingxi felt regretful, the Time Realm unexpectedly appeared on her forehead.
【500 reward duration deducted!】
Mingxi: ???
【Master, you humans are truly shortsighted and ignorant. Who said ice jade crystals are useless?
In ancient legends, ice jade crystal clusters are the only cradle for the birth of ice jade bone. You might want to search carefully nearby.
After all, lucky children get candy.】
【ice jade bone: Super rare material. When ground into powder, it can be applied externally or taken internally, with the effect of improving the quality of skin, muscles, bones, etc.
It is also one of the main materials for summoning the Celestial Mystery Nine Radiance Python.

After Guangguang left this information, the miniature Time Realm that had automatically appeared on Mingxi's forehead instantly vanished again.
As if everything had just been her illusion.
ice jade bone?
Super rare material?
Celestial Mystery Nine Radiance Python?
Wait!
Celestial Mystery Nine Radiance Python!!!
Isn't that the mythical Transcendent creature said to have disappeared for over five thousand years, hailed as the number one divine diviner in the entire interstellar realm?
Can it still be summoned?
How does one summon it? freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
It wouldn't be like Golden Yuanbao and the others, forcibly summoned with a Phantom Color Key, would it?
Mingxi was itching with curiosity, wishing she could re-enter the Time Realm to ask Guangguang for clarification.
Fortunately, her rationality remained.
Reward duration absolutely could not be consumed at will, otherwise, it would only cultivate a bad habit of immediately seeking Guangguang's help whenever she encountered a problem.
The more heaven-defying the cheat, the more she had to maintain her original intentions.
No one could guarantee that the Time Realm wouldn't suddenly disappear as it had appeared.
If such a situation truly occurred, the consequence of over-reliance would be her mentality completely losing balance, leading to a permanent decline.
So, the Time Realm should be used when needed; not using it would be foolish, but she had to constantly remind herself that she was just doing her job day by day.
If the temple ever went out of business, there was still a nunnery in the distance waiting for recruitment.
Cough!
In short, stay calm about everything.
"Golden Yuanbao, Lan Yue, Guangguang said that the ice jade crystal cluster might give birth to a very rare material called ice jade bone."
"Judging by its action of forcibly deducting 500 minutes of our reward duration without even asking, just to inform us of this, the probability of ice jade bone being here is as high as 99%."
Based on Guangguang's usual conduct, if it were ordinary news, it would just consume reward duration on its own to remind her, but this time it directly deducted 500 minutes of reward duration.
Not only did it explain the use of ice jade bone, but it was also considerate enough to directly display images.
Unusual.
Very unusual.
