Many people said these two unique chessboards were just decorations.
The pieces on them couldn't be moved, nor could the number of pieces be increased.
But Mingxi saw a familiar light on the chessboard.
Light meant that these two chessboards also had 'text' hidden.
Mingxi concentrated again, and the 'text' indeed materialized.
However, the 'text' that appeared from these two chessboards was extremely complex.
It was even more complicated than a 3D code, like thousands of precise and intricate lines of code superimposed on each other.
At first glance, it was dazzling.
At second glance, it was dizzying.
At third glance, her head exploded! frёewebηovel.cѳm
Mingxi quickly closed her eyes, not daring to look a fourth time.
These two 'texts' were even more terrifying than what she had seen in Return Nest before!
She had a premonition that if she stared for any longer, something bad was very likely to happen.
She felt that to fully see these two 'texts', her brain domain development had to be at least over 50%, or even higher.
If something cannot be done, there is no need to force it.
Mingxi decisively abandoned the desire to continue deciphering the chessboards and stepped into the Qi Palace.
Compared ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) to the ethereal and solemn exterior of the Qi Palace,
the interior of the Qi Palace resembled a modern hotel-style apartment, with nothing but straight corridors and tightly closed doors as far as the eye could see.
The white doors on the left side were Star Spirit Rooms that could be opened with Star Spirit Chess.
The black doors on the right side were Yong Ling Rooms that could be opened with valor spirit chess.
At this time, some doors had many people standing in front of them, while others were deserted.
Although the Chess Palace Secret Realm has been in existence for nearly a thousand years and many secrets have not been deciphered, predecessors have still accumulated a lot of practical and effective experience.
For example, the types of treasures that might be obtained in various rooms of the Qi Palace.
That's why these people selectively chose which rooms to enter; after all, their spirit chess were very limited, so they naturally had to be used wisely.
But Mingxi had no such concerns.
She let Jinyinan and Yinlan act on their own, and specifically spent 1500 reward hours to temporarily share the Time Realm's storage function with them.
(Note: Mingxi herself consumes 100 reward hours per day to use the Time Realm's storage function, while her pet beasts consume five times that amount.)
She then picked a Star Spirit Room with a 【Yuan Ming】 nameplate nearby and placed a white Star Spirit Chess piece on the empty chessboard above the white door.
“Creak.”
A hoarse and heavy sound of a door opening echoed, and the door in front of Mingxi slowly opened.
This scene, where the door opened by itself with no one behind it, inexplicably felt like entering a horror scene.
Mingxi rubbed off the goosebumps on her arms and stepped into a room filled with mist.
“Bang!”
As the door behind her closed, the world before Mingxi's eyes quietly changed.
She stood on a Gobi desert.
Looking up, all she saw was yellow sand and stones.
A strong wind, coming from who knows where, swept through, forming a huge sand wave in the air, like a giant dragon roaring and rolling in the sky.
After the giant dragon flew past,
Mingxi not only got a mouthful of sand, but even her hair and clothes turned golden.
She spat several times before her mouth felt less gritty.
After shaking off all the sand from her hair and clothes, she began to carefully observe her surroundings.
The vast and boundless Gobi desert shimmered with golden light under the sun.
The sand grains, as if scorched by the sun, seemed ready to ignite at any moment.
The endless sea of sand in the distance exuded desolation and dead silence, without any signs of life.
There was no vegetation, no water source here, only endless sand dunes, a few withered trees, and steep rock peaks.
The air was filled with the smell of dryness and dust, making one feel suffocated.
So where was the so-called treasure?
It couldn't just be these yellow sands and strange rocks, could it?
Mingxi looked up at the stone peak not far away; because the distance was not far, she could clearly see a sharp, rugged stone reflecting dazzling light.
That stone was most likely the treasure of this Star Spirit Room.
Mingxi did not act immediately, but instead carefully searched the vicinity.
Only after confirming that there were no hidden dangers or hidden traps in this space did she begin to act...
Outside reality.
After the Mystic Ground officially opened and 250 Beast Tamers entered the Mystic Ground, the Special Administration Bureau also began to monitor the life data of all Beast Tamers through the spiritual inscription monument.
Although the Chess Palace Secret Realm is the Mystic Ground with the lowest danger level among all known Mystic Grounds, it does not mean there is no risk of death.
Wang Pinglu, who is Wang Chen's unknown uncle, came to the control room monitoring the spiritual inscription monument immediately after the Mystic Ground passage closed.
There were more than ten people sitting in the control room, all specialists from the Special Administration Bureau responsible for real-time monitoring of the hand Card.
“Xiao Yu, pull up the real-time monitoring data for No. 250.”
Wang Pinglu walked behind one of the specialists and patted his chair back.
Although the final choice was made by Mingxi herself, whether from the perspective of a Special Administration Bureau leader or his personal standpoint, he did not want anything to happen to the Xiao Guniang.
Xiao Yu responded, typing quickly on the keyboard, and immediately pulled up the data for No. 250.
There were also differences between Mystic Ground hand Card and the spiritual inscription monument; the hand Card in Changheng Secret Realm belonged to the most common type, only capable of monitoring the life and death of the wearer.
The hand Card issued by the Special Administration Bureau, however, were more Advanced Level.
They could not only accurately monitor basic physical data such as the wearer's heart rate, blood pressure, and health points,
but also their physical fitness level, brain domain development, physical exertion, brain wave fluctuations, exercise volume, and whether they were currently in combat, among other things.
It was equivalent to an advanced version of a sports monitor.
At this time, a series of data and fluctuation graphs had already appeared on the main control screen.
【Number: 250】
【Name: Mingxi】
【Beast Tamer Level: D-level】
【Physical Fitness Level: B-level】
【Brain Domain Development: 28.95%】
【Health Points: 100】
【Physical Exertion (Graph)】
【Heart Rate (Graph)】
【Exercise Volume (Graph)】
【Brain Wave Fluctuation (Graph)】
...
“Director Wang, No. 250's exercise volume has been continuously increasing, but it’s very strange; her heart rate changes and consumption are not significant.”
Xiao Yu had a surprised expression.
Normally, increased exercise volume would be accompanied by heart rate fluctuations and physical exertion, but No. 250's fluctuation graph was very peculiar.
Her exercise volume surged, but her heart rate remained as steady as a dead person with a calm mind, and her physical exertion was so small it could be ignored.
This was too strange.
If he didn't know that the hand Card and the spiritual inscription monument would never have problems, he would have suspected that a fake or shoddy product had appeared.
Wang Pinglu naturally saw it too.
He wasn't so surprised, and said calmly, “It means this amount of exercise is insignificant to her.”
It seemed that the Xiao Guniang did not recklessly choose to enter the Mystic Ground, but truly had some strength!
He breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Afterward, he walked behind another specialist and had him pull up his little nephew's monitoring data, and after confirming that the boy was safe, he sent a message to the family group to report his safety.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Yu, who had been staring at everyone's data changes, suddenly shouted: “Director Wang, come quickly and look at No. 250's brain wave fluctuation graph!”
