If it was the former, the golden sand in the hourglass, no matter how much there was, wouldn't last for many days, but if it was the latter, it would have infinite possibilities.
According to the 49-day record, the latter was more likely.
Mingxi guessed correctly again; after the hourglass reversed, the amount of golden sand recovered.
This meant the total amount in the hourglass was constant.
"Haven't we found a solution then?"
Mingxi smiled.
Although this method was a great test for Beast Tamers, it was normal.
Mingxi had long realized that without the hourglass, in this Ghost Nightmare Land, the pet beasts would be the true main force, and the Beast Tamers' role would be negligible, even unnecessary.
After all, not everyone was like Mingxi, who could contract two spiritual rule items; even without pet beasts, she still had the ability to capture Ghost Nightmares.
"Jin."
But you will be very tired.
Emerald Green produced a pure white cotton flower.
Cotton flower was a common plant, but because its petals were as soft as cotton cloth and highly absorbent, it could be used as a towel instead of cotton cloth.
It tore off a petal and handed it to Chiyu.
Chiyu didn't need a hint; she immediately carefully held Mingxi's face and meticulously wiped it.
Externalizing mental power was already extremely difficult, equivalent to peeling off one's own brain. The process was incredibly arduous and ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) challenging. Their bond with her was very strong, so they could somewhat feel it.
Furthermore, what she had to do was not just externalize her mental power, but also make it connect with the golden sand, so Mingxi was covered in sweat at this moment.
They hadn't moved earlier because of the bowl of noodles Black Pearl had brought.
She was hungry, and even if she was to clean up, she had to fill her stomach first.
Mingxi did not resist.
Ever since she had been broken into pieces, Golden Yuanbao and the others had started treating her like fragile goods, especially the older Emerald Green and Chiyu, who had consciously taken on the roles of butler and nanny.
She had refused.
But they remained unchanged.
Mingxi had no choice but to become a pampered young lady who was waited on hand and foot.
"It's not hard, and doing this definitely isn't useless."
Externalizing mental power was indeed painful, but it would definitely not just be pain.
Soon, Mingxi understood what else this continuous externalization of mental power and connection with the golden sand was for.
Tempering.
Tempering mental power and strengthening the brain's defensive capabilities.
Unlike physical strength, the Beast Tamers' brain region (mental sea) was actually a more fragile existence. Many Transcendent creatures' skills could easily shatter the brain region.
Even the higher the brain region's development, the weaker its defensive capabilities.
To put it this way, the brain region was like a balloon. The process of developing it was like blowing it up and expanding it. It might have infinite possibilities, but the more it expanded, the thinner its outer wall became.
It was very likely to burst with just a light poke.
So why was the highest level for Beast Tamers SSS-rank?
Was it because the brain region couldn't be developed to 100%?
No, it wasn't.
It was because no Beast Tamers dared to try.
They were afraid their brain region would 'pop' and explode on its own.
And in the interstellar world, repairing physical trauma was easy, but repairing a damaged mental sea was as hard as ascending to the heavens.
This was the main reason why the Alliance strictly restricted pet beasts from attacking humans. In front of some strange skills, Beast Tamers were even more fragile than crispy snacks!
The issue of brain region defense had always been a big problem.
Mingxi had not thought about strengthening her defense in this regard, but apart from pet beast skills, other methods were beyond her reach at this stage.
However, pet beast skills in related areas could be planned and cultivated.
But Mingxi also didn't expect such an unexpected pleasant surprise on this trip.
Whenever she successfully established a connection with the golden sand, the mental power threads would undergo subtle transformations.
The quantity decreased, but it wasn't that mental power was worn away; rather, it became more solidified and pure.
Because the changes were not obvious, Mingxi initially didn't notice, but after many times, she found that her mental sea space had shrunk a little.
Although it might only be as small as a fingernail.
But Mingxi, with her astonishing observational skills, still noticed it.
Of course, she wouldn't think that her brain region development had decreased, although there were cases of Beast Tamers experiencing brain region shrinkage, but that usually happened after pet beast deaths or backlashes. freewebnσvel.cøm
She was perfectly fine, and no bad news had occurred.
It was absolutely impossible for her brain region to shrink.
Mingxi had always been a bold and meticulous person. Even after encountering danger multiple times, she never wallowed in self-pity, nor did she hesitate or waver in her choices.
She would only become more determined in the path she wanted to take!
If someone like her acted timidly, what awaited her was either death or becoming a caged bird.
Therefore, she did not fear or retreat due to the changes in her mental sea; instead, she even increased the amount of mental power used to establish a connection with the golden sand.
She even activated the Breathing Method.
Soon, she knew the reason for the change in her mental sea: her mental power was being tempered, impurities were being removed, and the essence was being refined. At the same time, the cleared impurities were not wasted but transformed into nutrients that nourished the outer wall of her mental sea.
Upon this discovery, Mingxi realized what the true opportunity in this Ghost Nightmare Land was!
It wasn't the Ghost Nightmares, but the golden sand that continuously flowed in this hourglass.
After realizing this, Mingxi even more vigorously increased her mental power input.
Even though she endured the pain of ten thousand ants gnawing at her brain every moment, every minute, every second, she still did not stop.
Because only the golden sand in the upper layer of the hourglass could establish a connection with mental power, the workload of Golden Yuanbao and the others was also considerable.
They not only had to accurately grasp the timing to ensure they captured the Ghost Nightmare before the golden sand in the upper layer of the hourglass was depleted, but they also couldn't waste the golden sand that Mingxi drew out.
Because Mingxi needed to focus on externalizing her mental power, the task of overall coordination fell to Emerald Green.
Among the six, Golden Yuanbao was the ceiling of combat power and the absolute leader of the team; no one would go over it.
And Emerald Green, who was the oldest and best at understanding people's hearts, was the brain of the team.
Even the proudest Little Silver Flower respected it from the bottom of her heart.
Mingxi had always felt very lucky, not because she possessed an overpowered cheat like the Time Realm, but because of her pet beasts.
They were the best gifts God had given her!
Cough.
Getting overly sentimental again.
In the following days, the one person and six beasts were even busier than before, hardly daring to stop for a moment.
The Time Realm never Descended again.
Mingxi remained very composed, completely unaffected.
The most affected were Little Silver Flower and Black Pearl; one was concerned about the power of rules and the unfinished eggshell slate, while the other worried that without the Time Realm, her owner's future strength would fall further behind her other companions.
Golden Yuanbao and the other four also had more or less worries. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Although the Ghost Nightmare Land was good, they were still very clear about which was more important: short-term sudden wealth or long-term stable profit.
