Free Web NovelMingxi was not moved by the good news.
She asked, “Are you sure? If I leave the Abyss Secret Realm, will this time anchor point still exist?”
Guangguang was silent for a long while again.
Then it stammered, “Master, you are indeed my smartest and wisest master.”
Heh heh.
It seemed she had guessed correctly; if she left the Abyss Secret Realm, the third anchor point would disappear.
However, if she truly succeeded in contracting the mirror of creation and destruction, she wondered if she could...
Mingxi thought about the possibility of exploiting a bug.
But there was no point thinking about it now.
She asked Guangguang, “What time is it in the Secret Realm now?”
“Based on the cooldown time of the turntable, it’s currently around 8:12 PM in the Abyss Secret Realm.”
Under normal circumstances, the time extraction turntable cooled down once every 24 hours, and calculated according to the second anchor point, it should still take nearly ten hours to refresh.
But now, there were only 48 minutes left until the cooldown ended.
This was also Guangguang’s main basis for determining that a third anchor point had appeared in the Time Realm.
Mingxi had also thought of this point.
She opened her personal terminal and set the Abyss Secret Realm time, which was like wearing two watches.
This situation was similar to adjusting to local time when traveling abroad.
“Lan Yue, do you know where we are now? Are we close to your home, that Diqi Gorge?”
Mingxi asked the only local native present again.
Lan Yue nodded and let out several low calls.
It raised its front paw and pointed to a mountain not far away, indicating that crossing that mountain should lead to the gorge, a place it had visited as a child to find food.
It then pointed to a giant Iron Rhino Tree nearby, so large that six or seven people couldn't encircle it.
It had already gone to check it out.
“Ling Ling.”
That tree had a tree hollow; when it was bullied by its siblings, neither its father nor mother cared about it.
Sometimes, when it was too severely injured, it would secretly hide here.
Licking its wounds alone, waiting for them to heal, or waiting for... death.
Although no abnormality could be heard in Lan Yue’s voice, Mingxi still felt a faint sense of melancholy and sadness.
Its childhood was a wound that could never be removed.
Even if it had healed, sometimes when the scar ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) was touched, it would still feel dull aches.
Mingxi hugged its neck, rubbing her face against its head several times, wanting to give it strength in this way.
Seeing this, Golden Yuanbao and Little Silver Flower also brought their heads closer, rubbing together.
In an instant, one person and three beasts rubbed against each other.
Feathers and hair flew everywhere.
Emerald Green, holding Black Pearl, stood silently to the side.
∠( ᐛ 」∠)
Ah, this...
It and the bubble-blowing Fish Baby silently looked at each other.
What to do?
Wouldn’t not rubbing together make them seem unsociable?
Black Pearl tilted its head: (●'◡'●)oooo??
Emerald Green: ...
It thought for a moment, then hesitantly moved behind Lan Yue, stealthily extending a paw to stroke one of the fluffy large tails.
It also brought Black Pearl close to another tail.
Its eye twitched violently.
Quick, touch it.
Black Pearl blinked its eyes.
It didn't understand anything, instinctively extending its chubby paw to grasp the fluff in front of it.
ヾ(o^^*)ノ
“Ling?”
Feeling the pain from its tail, Lan Yue turned its head to look behind it...
Mingxi, Golden Yuanbao, and Little Silver Flower also looked over at the same time.
They saw Emerald Green holding one of Lan Yue’s tails, emotionlessly moving its hands up and down, its movements stiff and expression numb, like a worker who had been on an assembly line for ten or eight years.
And Black Pearl was hanging like a pendant on another tail, its fish tail excitedly swinging back and forth, as if it had found a new toy.
Its eyes were sparkling.
“...”
The atmosphere was awkward yet comical.
“Pfft.”
Mingxi couldn't help but burst out laughing.
She grabbed the swinging Black Pearl back into her arms, stroking its little face, which had turned rosy from excitement; it seemed to really like Lan Yue’s tail.
She would get it some plush toys on Poseidon’s Rest later.
Mingxi smiled at Emerald Green again.
“Since Diqi Gorge isn’t far, let’s camp here tonight, and we’ll set off for the gorge tomorrow morning.”
Mingxi wanted to bring Lan Yue back to the Abyss Secret Realm, not only to let it return home in glory and eliminate its childhood trauma as much as possible, but also for its evolution.
Although Lan Yue had now evolved into a Lingtianzi, it was still essentially a mutated Ice Soul Lynx.
Diqi Gorge, as the lair of the Bing She Six-tailed Huan, was able to cultivate two Royal-level Transcendent creatures, so there must be something inside that could enhance the Ice Soul Lynx clan.
Just like the ghost thunder flower Lan Yue gave them before.
Lan Yue was, after all, the child of those two Bing She Six-tailed Huan; surely it was fine for her to ask them for some child support?
“You Yan.”
Golden Yuanbao and the others agreed.
Because the tree hollow of that Iron Rhino Tree was large enough, and the wood of the Iron Rhino Tree was hard, providing good warmth and wind protection.
After observing, Mingxi didn't set up a tent; she planned to simply tidy up the tree hollow and spend the night there.
Anyway, with Golden Yuanbao and the others guarding, and them currently at most in the middle section of the Secret Realm, the danger level was not too high yet.
“Jin.”
Seeing Mingxi take out a broom and rag, preparing to tidy up the tree hollow by herself.
Emerald Green shook its head and stopped her.
Let me do it.
Before Mingxi could speak, Emerald Green had already moved.
Countless slender vines spread from its hands and feet, rapidly covering the inside of the tree hollow, transforming the originally somewhat damp and messy environment into a clean and tidy treehouse.
But the vines did not stop growing.
Five seconds later, a vine bed large enough for two people to lie down, a small round table, and two wooden stools appeared one by one before Mingxi’s eyes.
Finally, various sized flower buds grew on the roof and walls.
The flower buds rapidly bloomed, simultaneously emitting a soft glow, adorning the entire treehouse to be both cozy and beautiful.
“Wow!”
Mingxi couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Emerald Green actually had such an ability.
“Jin.” freeωebnovēl.c૦m
This was one of the abilities of its characteristic, All Things Grow; it only needed to consume a very small amount of energy to catalyze any ordinary plant.
However, because the catalyzed ordinary plants had no offensive or defensive capabilities, they were not mentioned in the characteristic description.
“A good ability, very practical. No need to bring a tent when going out in the future.”
Mingxi gave a fair evaluation; although houses constructed from ordinary plants had no defensive capabilities, they were still very practical when combined with the environment.
It was simply an essential divine skill for home and travel.
“Jin.”
Emerald Green was happy inside, but its expression remained aloof.
It scanned the treehouse again, took out a mattress, sheets, quilt, and pillows from the Time Realm, walked to the vine bed, and arranged them one by one.
It also placed a teapot, teacups, energy pills, and snacks on the vine table.
And Black Pearl’s baby bottle.
