Free Web NovelMingxi happily put away the ice jade bone.
Thinking that good words cost nothing anyway, she let Little Silver Flower show off to its heart's content.
After a barrage of compliments, Little Silver Flower's taunt value was maxed out.
It stood with its hands on its hips, flapping its wings, and wagging its long tail, striking a classic teapot pose.
“Luo Luo Luo...”
Its demonic laughter echoed in all directions.
Mingxi & Golden Yuanbao & Lan Yue: “...”
Tsk, if you're so happy, why don't you activate the order crystal again?
Only when Little Silver Flower's emotional needs were fully satisfied and it lay back down in Mingxi's hood did Mingxi feel at ease checking the time.
19:53
There was still an hour before the Time Realm opened.
She thought for a moment and pulled out all the Ice-attribute energy crystals she had prepared long ago.
Although an hour wasn't too long, under normal circumstances, it was definitely enough for Lan Yue to complete its evolution.
The Ice Soul Lynx's evolution to the next stage would take at most half an hour.
Her original plan was to let Lan Yue absorb the energy crystals and evolve after finding a suitable ice house for the night.
The Icefield Sea at night was not only colder, but also relatively safer than during the day, as Transcendent creatures active at night were, after all, a minority.
Moreover, due to the task of capturing Snowmelt Flowers, there were quite a few Beast Tamers active in the Icefield Sea now.
She was worried about unexpected changes if Lan Yue evolved during the day.
Once an Ice Soul Lynx that met the evolution conditions began absorbing energy crystals, it could not be interrupted.
Otherwise, it would affect its talent in the next stage.
Therefore, it was best to evolve in a safe and secluded environment.
After weighing all aspects, Mingxi felt that the Icefield Sea at night was the most suitable.
And at this time, after evolving, they could directly enter the Time Realm—perfect!
At this moment, how could Mingxi know?
Her plan was perfectly fine, but there was also a saying in this world—plans change.
Mingxi had prepared ten D-grade Ice-attribute energy crystals, each about the size of a macadamia nut, crystal clear.
At first glance, they looked exactly like glass marbles.
“Lan Yue, absorb as much as you can, don't feel pressured.”
Mingxi handed over the first energy crystal.
Lan Yue nodded and took the first energy crystal.
It knew that their purpose for this trip was to help it evolve, and it had already prepared itself mentally.
As Lan Yue began to absorb the energy crystal, Mingxi activated the holographic recording function on her personal terminal.
She planned to record the entire process of Lan Yue's evolution.
The purpose?
Let's just say she loved recording beautiful moments of life.
Of course, this had been agreed upon by Lan Yue beforehand.
Knowing that Lan Yue was about to evolve, Golden Yuanbao and Little Silver Flower's expressions became solemn.
“Lei Lei.”
Xiao Ye will go outside and stand guard.
Golden Yuanbao explained to Mingxi, then flapped its wings and flew out of the cave entrance.
Mingxi thought for a moment and didn't stop it.
Through the light of the illuminating lamp, across the ice layer and frozen soil, Golden Yuanbao's figure could be vaguely seen squatting at the cave entrance.
Like a warrior steadfastly holding their post in the cold wind and rain.
And Little Silver Flower also flew out of the hood, quietly sitting on Mingxi's shoulder with bent knees, its short toes tightly gripping Mingxi's hair near her cheek.
Mingxi smiled knowingly.
They truly were two considerate treasures.
Lan Yue took less than two minutes to absorb the first energy crystal.
Seeing the energy crystal turn into powder in its paw, Mingxi breathed a sigh of relief and quickly handed over the second one.
Transcendent creatures actually found it very difficult to directly absorb energy crystals.
Because energy crystals that hadn't been processed into energy supplements were aggregates of mixed energy, most Transcendent creatures found it difficult to purify the energy crystals on their own.
Only when in an evolution-demanding state could they precisely purify energy crystals and absorb them directly.
Now that Lan Yue could successfully absorb Ice-attribute energy crystals, it meant that it had indeed entered an evolutionary state.
The process of absorbing the second one was much slower; a full ten minutes passed before the energy crystal in Lan Yue's paw dissipated.
Mingxi handed over the third energy crystal, but felt a bit surprised.
Logically, with Lan Yue's talent level, two energy crystals should have been enough for evolution.
But looking at the current situation, Lan Yue hadn't reached its limit yet.
So was it really a D-talent pet? ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
For the first time, Mingxi doubted the accuracy of the Time Realm's detection cabin.
At this moment, Golden Yuanbao outside the cave suddenly swooped down and landed beside her.
“Lei Lei, Lei Lei.”
It said there was movement outside, and someone or a Transcendent creature was approaching their location.
Mingxi's face darkened.
Without thinking, she first turned off the illuminating lamp; although they were underground, because the cave entrance was not small, the light here could still expose their location.
“Little Silver Flower, you stay here and guard Lan Yue, Golden Yuanbao and I will go out and check the situation.”
Mingxi made a decisive decision.
Lan Yue's evolution had already begun and absolutely could not be interrupted.
So no matter if it was a person or a Transcendent creature, they had to be lured away.
Little Silver Flower also understood the seriousness of the situation; although it really wanted to follow its Beast Tamer, it didn't argue, instead growing larger and taking the energy crystals and zhuangdan fruit that Mingxi handed over.
“Give the zhuangdan fruit to Lan Yue to consume during its evolution.”
“In case Golden Yuanbao and I can't stop them, and someone or a Transcendent creature breaks in, use Barrier and Holy Light Guard to prevent anyone from getting close to Lan Yue as much as possible.”
Mingxi gave instructions at an extremely fast pace.
Finally, she said, “If... protect yourself first.”
Lan Yue's evolution was important, but Little Silver Flower's life was more important; Mingxi didn't want anything like Little Silver Flower expending its life force to happen again.
“Luo Luo, Luo Luo.”
Sister, I know, I will protect myself and I will protect Lan Yue.
Mingxi said no more, groped in the dark to sit on Golden Yuanbao's back, and followed it out of the underground cave.
As soon as she exited the cave, she heard the sound carried by the wind.
She looked in the direction of the sound, and about three hundred meters from their location, there was indeed a group of people.
However, judging by the commotion, they seemed to be engaged in a battle, and the light from their skills flashed like the aurora.
Because of this, their moving speed was not fast.
Mingxi breathed a slight sigh of relief.
“Golden Yuanbao, don't use Flight for now, let's walk, and try to sneak over to check the situation.”
Mingxi said in a low voice.
Golden Yuanbao's feather color was too conspicuous in the Icefield Sea, still shining brightly even in the dark night.
Flying into the air at this distance would very likely draw the attention of that group of people, wouldn't that expose the location of this cave?
That's why Mingxi chose to walk; the varying heights of the snowdrifts could perfectly conceal their figures.
Unfortunately, Golden Yuanbao, with only two legs, couldn't crawl forward.
Otherwise, there would be even less need to worry about being discovered.
Walking in the snow was not easy, but because the approaching group was also fighting and retreating, Mingxi quickly got a clear view of the situation over there.
In the darkness, although Mingxi couldn't see the faces of those people, she immediately recognized their identities because of the several pets that were currently engaged in battle. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
It was quite a coincidence.
It was precisely the four teachers and students from Bei Yi Vocational High School, and Xia Dasheng's three people.
