Free Web NovelThat's a sharp question.
The crack in shen guan and the incomplete mysterious characters clearly indicate an equivalent relationship.
Therefore, completing the characters is equivalent to repairing the shen guan Bell.
That's correct.
The question is, how do we complete the characters?
Another question is, what did the mysterious characters belonging to shen guan originally look like?
And in this situation where both friend and foe might try to kill them?
Mingxi took a deep breath.
"I'll try first."
Just a try, it shouldn't immediately lead to death. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
After a mental exchange with Golden Yuanbao and the others, and receiving positive feedback from a few, Mingxi looked around and went behind the collapsed boulders that had been moved.
This position was five or six meters away from the large pit, outside the attack range of Xiang Yu.
But due to the height, she could see the shen guan Bell in the pit, and most importantly, she could see the manifestation of the characters.
Because the mysterious characters were like long strips, similar to prayer flags, encircling shen guan, if it weren't for the need to release mental power to see them, the visual effect would actually be quite magnificent.
Mingxi began to draw out her mental power threads and sent them towards shen guan.
Her mental power quickly reached the first incomplete character, which Mingxi judged to be the least incomplete.
More importantly, she had seen this character before.
It was the character 【Curse】.
The character that appeared on the Mermaid's crystal forehead band on the Mystic Mirage Sea altar.
Mingxi recalled the complete appearance of that 【Curse】 character.
The mysterious characters were extremely complex; many looked similar, but only differed in subtle details.
Every time she memorized a character, Mingxi felt like she was back in her youth in her previous life, memorizing "Chu Shi Biao."
It was too difficult.
But she diligently memorized each one; the mysterious characters could not be recorded, only memorized by rote.
She couldn't rely on a poor pen, only a good memory.
Fortunately, as her brain domain continued to develop, her memory was not bad.
Following her memory, Mingxi guided her mental power to the incomplete part of the character, controlling it to intertwine into a heart shape (ღ).
It was not a simple task to 'pose' her mental power threads; the process was comparable to Lu Zhishen's first attempt at needlework.
In a short while, Mingxi was already sweating profusely.
Finally, after much effort, she managed to create the complete shape and reached the most crucial step.
Fixing the heart shape (ღ) molded from her mental power threads.
Mingxi didn't even think, directly severing that wisp of mental power thread, forcefully leaving that heart shape (ღ) within the incomplete character.
"Ugh."
Mingxi let out a low groan; the damage and loss of mental power threads were equivalent to brain domain trauma, directly affecting her mental sea.
If serious, it could lead to a regression in her brain domain development.
Even losing just a tiny bit now.
Made her head buzz and her soles ache.
But Mingxi was no longer concerned with the pain; her gaze was fixed on the characters shimmering with golden light and black mist, especially the section of mental power thread she had left behind.
After she actively severed the mental power thread, the character suspected to be 【Curse】 began to flash rapidly.
And the heart shape (ღ) she had molded from her mental power showed no movement at first, but as the surrounding patterns continuously flashed, it seemed to be attracted as well, slowly, sluggishly, starting to jump along.
From initially being unable to keep up with the rhythm, to being perfectly in sync.
Completely integrated, becoming one.
"Buzz!"
After the heart shape (ღ) was completely integrated, that mysterious character rotated once on its own and finally stopped flashing!
"Ling Ling."
Lan Yue spoke softly.
That crack was gone.
Only then did Mingxi truly breathe ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) a sigh of relief; it seemed she had indeed opened the right path.
And her first attempt was actually successful.
If it weren't inappropriate, she would have put her hands on her hips and laughed wildly three times, shouting to the sky: "Who else!"
"Master is awesome! Master is the best! Master, you're so smart! You actually thought of using your own mental power to complete the characters, and it actually worked!
This is simply the greatest unscientific thing in the universe—no, it's a miracle!
You truly are a genius!
No, you are not just a genius, you are simply a god; if you, Xiao Xi, had not been born, the universe would have been in eternal night!
You are the most incredible human I have ever seen in my life!"
Blown away by Guangguang's rainbow flattery, Mingxi immediately calmed down.
These words, how did they sound so much like sarcasm?
And the eternal night thing was completely unnecessary; she was neither Ming Zhongni nor Ming Chungang!
No need to show off and deceive.
Cough cough cough!
Moreover, the revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard.
If there's to be praise, let it wait until she has completely repaired shen guan.
"Calm down, where are we even at?"
Mingxi suppressed the excitedly bouncing Guangguang with a strained voice and looked towards shen guan again.
There were a total of five mysterious characters displayed on shen guan.
Besides the least incomplete 【Curse】, there were two other characters she could roughly identify: 【Town】, which she had seen in the Chess Palace Secret Realm, and 【Solid】, which she had seen on Whale Fall Island.
Of course, whether those characters actually meant what she had comprehended, she didn't know.
Her judgment was based not only on idealism (a woman's excellent sixth sense) but also on a complex process of reasoning, generalization, and induction.
It was probably what you'd call a... metaphysical exploration based on scientific evidence?
Right or wrong, Mingxi couldn't find anyone else to judge her now.
Although she had mentioned the mysterious characters to Chu Kuangsheng, up to now, Beast Tamers who could truly see and distinguish the characters were few and far between.
So she could only trust herself!
She turned her gaze to the mysterious character suspected to be 【Solid】.
If 【Curse】 represented shen guan, this rule-based item, as having the power of Curse and erosion, then 【Solid】 should relate to shen guan's inherent solidity, which is its ability to resist attacks!
So Mingxi decided to complete this character next.
"Those hiding over there! Which squad are you from?! What have you been secretly doing there for so long?"
A gloomy roar echoed from across the large pit, and even across the deep, vast pit, it still exploded in Mingxi's ears like a dark thunderclap.
Thump.
Damn it, they had become the focus.
Mingxi looked at the Hooded Men opposite, knowing from the voice that this was a woman.
Her cloak was different from the one Mingxi was disguised in; the lapels, hood, and hem were all edged with silver fabric strips.
Mingxi knew that ordinary Hooded Men referred to these cloaked individuals as Silver-Clad Envoys.
There were four such Silver-Clad Envoys in total, and their status was second only to Tie Nuo · Ke Li Si, the Golden-Robed Man.
Here's the key point.
They were all women.
This... this made it quite easy for people to overthink.
Actually, Mingxi didn't overthink it; these four Silver-Clad Envoys were indeed what she thought they were: Tie Nuo · Ke Li Si's four lovers.
That's right, lovers.
His wife was someone else.
Well, that's not the point.
The point was that Mingxi was now being targeted.
