Free Web NovelI am very troubled; it's truly too difficult to distribute my favor evenly.
Empress Golden Yuanbao diligently accompanied me in conquering the empire and helping me stabilize the nation; I absolutely cannot break her heart.
Noble Consort Silver Flower has a noble background, is mysterious and powerful, lucky and adorable; no amount of doting on her is too much.
Although Virtuous Consort Lan's background is humble, her character is resolute and self-reliant, never wallowing in self-pity; she is the most gentle and considerate confidante in my heart. She has never asked anything of me, so how can I bear to disappoint her this one time?
Worthy Consort Emerald Green is knowledgeable and sensible...
...
Mingxi had completely immersed herself in the role of the emperor, looking at the green name plaques presented by the eunuch, and fell into deep contemplation.
"Why can't I use a clone technique!"
Despise Wang Lin, understand Wang Lin, become Wang Lin.
Tsk!
Mingxi glanced towards the small altar, unable to resist cheering for the other six, 'Why don't you all work harder and claim the birth and death crystal?'
That way I won't have to agonize over who should go.
Although it was a dilemma, the problem still needed to be solved.
Setting aside emotional factors, Mingxi analyzed rationally.
"The birth and death crystal can theoretically be absorbed by any attribute of Transcendent creature, but this is only a judgment made by scientists based on that single example from back then, without secondary verification.
In reality, the pet beast that absorbed the birth and death crystal back then was a ground and grass dual-attribute Transcendent creature named Jia Ni Ni.
This Transcendent creature has the alias of Child of Earth.
I speculate this is also the main reason it was able to gain the birth and death crystal's recognition and awaken 'Birth and Death Vientiane'.
The Land of Birth and Death, Vientiane changes, birth and death naturally."
Under the gaze of six pairs of bright, Bright eyes eyes, Mingxi looked at Emerald Green, "So A'Fei, you are undoubtedly the most hopeful of the seven to gain the birth and death crystal's recognition."
If Jia Ni Ni was a Child of Earth, then her Emerald Green must be a Child of Nature, right? freewebnoveℓ.com
The two major characteristics, 'All Things Grow' and 'Living Extinction', grant it powerful control over all things in nature.
If anyone present was most suitable for the 'Birth and Death Vientiane' characteristic, it would undoubtedly be Emerald Green.
Upon hearing this, Golden Yuanbao, Silver Flower, Lan Yue, Black Pool, and White all drooped their heads.
They wore expressions of dejection, like a Beast Tamers had just died.
Mingxi: "..." Hey, hey, hey, am I still your beloved treasure?
Only Emerald Green reacted calmly, quietly waiting for her next words.
Her Little Human never showed favoritism in important matters; even comparing her most important Golden Yuanbao with the Bright Crystal, whom she contracted last, she would treat them equally when making crucial decisions.
She would be even fairer and more just than those so-called selfless people.
"But I can feel your emotions. You are so eager, is it because you feel the attraction of the birth and death crystal?"
The seven of them nodded in unison with great understanding; they were fighting so hard precisely because they felt they could gain the recognition of that birth and death crystal.
Mingxi thought, 'As expected.'
Even Lan Yue, who was the least competitive, and Red Jade, who cared for Golden Yuanbao and the others like children, acting like both a sister and a strict teacher, had stepped forward.
This matter couldn't be simple.
"So I've decided that I will be the one to approach the birth and death crystal." fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
The seven tilted their heads in unison: ༐▼(˘•ω•˘)▼༐ Huh???
The beloved consorts had many little question marks.
How was this different from the outcome they had imagined? They had thought the result of the bickering would be drawing lots.
They never expected that they would all be deprived of the opportunity.
The seven ~Nоvеl𝕚ght~ looked at each other, considering the necessity of overturning the table.
"Little friend, are you serious?"
When Yue Lingren and the other six learned that Mingxi intended to go herself, their expressions were quite spectacular, colorful like a palette.
"Little friend, absolutely not!
Because of my father, I was once fortunate enough to see the detailed records of that secret realm's birth and death crystal from back then. When that birth and death crystal appeared, the Beast Tamers who directly touched it were all assimilated by the Land of Birth and Death without exception!"
Aletai also spoke to stop Mingxi, who was preparing to take the risk.
The assimilation he spoke of was even more severe than death.
To be assimilated by the Land of Birth and Death meant to become a part of the secret realm, perhaps a stone, a blade of grass, a large tree.
They would have life, but no longer be able to control their own lives.
Living like that was worse than dying.
"I know."
Guangguang had already told her all the relevant information about the birth and death crystal.
Beast Tamers could not touch the birth and death crystal; even a slight touch would result in assimilation, giving no chance at all.
At that time, many Beast Tamers didn't believe in evil, and among them was even a being hailed as the ceiling of humanity, yet they couldn't resist the birth and death crystal's power of assimilation and regrettably vanished into the long river of history.
Mingxi certainly didn't think her current self was more powerful than that human ceiling.
So.
"I want to try if I can gain its recognition without direct contact. If not, then in the next round, I will let Emerald Green go."
Mingxi wasn't that stubborn.
After all, no matter how important the birth and death crystal was, it wasn't as important as her own life.
She just didn't want Golden Yuanbao and the others to harbor resentment because of this matter.
Yue Lingren and the others were stunned.
Aletai immediately understood her meaning, "You want to try mental contact?"
"Yes."
"You've also noticed that this birth and death crystal has extremely strong mental interference and seductive abilities. During mental contact, you are very likely to be tempted; it will entice you to actively touch it." Aletai still didn't quite agree.
Mingxi smiled.
"I know, Uncle Beifeng, don't worry. Once my mental power is disturbed, this item of mine will immediately awaken me."
She fiddled with the shen guan on her earlobe.
"Clang."
The shen guan chimed softly, as if in response.
Aletai Beifeng heard this and did not continue to dissuade her. Mingxi was not an ordinary child; her decisions were undoubtedly well-thought-out.
Mingxi soothed the emotions of the Golden Yuanbao Seven, leaving them below the altar, avoiding the twelve rotating sky pearls, and walked onto the altar alone, sitting cross-legged in front of the stone egg.
She focused her mind, rapidly releasing threads of spiritual power, while fully operating her Breathing Method.
She did not rashly release all her mental power to touch the birth and death crystal, but rather tentatively extended a single wisp first.
The invisible thread cautiously tickled the birth and death crystal.
"Ding."
A clear, melodious chime of metal and stone echoed in Mingxi's perception, very pleasant to the ear.
Huh?
It actually felt quite good.
Mingxi immediately grew bolder, extending more threads of mental power.
In an instant, threads of mental power flew in large quantities, centered around Mingxi.
At this moment, in the eyes of Yue Lingren and the two others who were using their mental power to observe, Mingxi was like a blooming golden thousand-petal chrysanthemum, magnificent and noble.
"What solid mental power threads!"
Yue Lingren exclaimed.
Aletai nodded: "Not only that, her speed and stability in releasing mental power are also very strong."
"Hehe, our young lady is just that excellent."
