Normally, it would absolutely have no chance of evolving in this kind of environment.

“It was affected by the energy tide of Yuanshi Demon Phoenix’s evolution!”

Guangguang’s urgent voice rang in Mingxi’s mind: “Aninos and Yuanshi Demon Phoenix both possess dark energy, and they have evolved together before. They also have bond skills between them, and their origins share a faint commonality.”

“Yuanshi Demon Phoenix’s attribute-based evolution triggered a rule-level energy tide!”

These turbulent energies caused strong stimulation and suppression to Aninos’s ghost attribute, forcing it to passively activate its innate evolutionary instinct to resist.

This accelerated the formation and worsening of its evolutionary fever!

Master, it must evolve immediately. The development of this evolutionary fever will be very rapid.”

Passively activated!

Mingxi’s heart sank sharply. She hadn’t expected that letting Black Pearl observe Golden Yuanbao’s evolution would lead to such an accident.

It truly was...

Planting flowers with intent, they don’t bloom; evolving without intent, it evolves wildly.

Mingxi was not in the mood to savor the taste of regret. After quickly calming down, she could clearly feel the anxiety and confusion coming from the other end of the contract, as well as a stifling sensation of being ignited but having nowhere to vent.

This confusion came quickly and surged!

Just as Guangguang warned, Black Pearl must complete its evolution as soon as possible.

But at this very moment, where could she find a vast ocean for Black Pearl?

As a Merfolk, even if Black Pearl could awaken other attributes, its most basic attribute would never change.

Water!

Seawater!

Therefore, one of its evolution conditions must be to be in the ocean.

It had to be a real sea, not something constructed by skills.

In other words, its Water Dragon Ballad could create a suitable environment for Golden Yuanbao’s evolution, but it couldn’t assist itself.

“Ocean... ocean environment...” Mingxi’s brain rapidly spun, her gaze sweeping over the chaotic battlefield.

A real ocean was far away. Even if Little Silver Flower used Space Flash to get there, it would take several hours.

After a few hours, Black Pearl would probably be dead.

Just at this critical moment, a cold, slippery sensation, as if composed of countless whispers of the drowned, transmitted from her Ring of Life.

Mingxi’s thoughts stirred, and an item appeared in her hand.

It was a pitch-black, inconspicuous stone that had been casually tossed in a corner during the previous raid of the Blood Moon warehouse. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Because its outer layer was wrapped in a thick, black, oily shell, which had extremely strong interference and shielding effects, even Guangguang couldn’t discern its true form and function.

To be safe, Mingxi had temporarily placed it in her Ring of Life.

She hadn't expected it to show an anomaly at such a time.

“Crack, crack—”

With a flash of light, the thick oily shell began to shed on its own, revealing its true appearance in less than ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) two seconds.

It was a pitch-black conch-shaped object, its aura extremely eerie and cold.

“Master, it’s the Ghastly Conch!

An extremely dangerous one-time rule item.

After blowing it, it can temporarily transform and solidify a portion of the sky into a Ghastly Sea for approximately five minutes.

The Ghastly Sea possesses rule distortions, such as gravity anomalies, spatial folding, and localized time flow disorder; it is Netherworld and Deathly Silence, meaning no light, no sound, and isolation from life detection; and it has the characteristic of weak water sinking souls, where the seawater erodes mental power and drowns souls.”

Having lost its obscuring power, Guangguang instantly recognized the item and its function.

Solidify the sky into an ocean?

And a Ghastly Sea?

Rule distortion?Netherworld and Deathly Silence? Weak water sinking souls?!

This... just hearing it, it didn't sound like a good place to be.

Letting Black Pearl evolve in such an environment, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was finding a slim chance of survival in a desperate situation!

Moreover, the Ghastly Sea only existed for five minutes. What if Black Pearl couldn't complete its evolution within those five minutes?

If the evolution was forcibly interrupted, it would directly damage its talent.

For the first time, Mingxi lost her decisiveness.

Her brows also involuntarily furrowed into a frown.

“This space is sealed by the Prism Mirror Realm. Will using the Ghastly Conch not be restricted?”

Guangguang’s tone was certain: “No, from a rule-level perspective, the Ghastly Conch’s level is above that of the Prism Mirror Realm, so once you use the Ghastly Conch to transform into a Ghastly Sea, the space Ban here will also be forcibly lifted.”

That was good news.

Mingxi turned to Black Pearl, “How about it? Want to try?”

“As!”

Black Pearl naturally heard Guangguang’s explanation. It didn’t shrink back, nodding without hesitation.

ε(*･ω･)_/ﾟ:･☆

It had no problem!

Although the Ghastly Sea itself was extremely dangerous, it felt that the environmental characteristics of the Ghastly Sea perfectly suited its evolutionary needs!

Mingxi took a deep breath, sweeping away all her worries, “Good! Then get ready!”

“As.”

Two pairs of ebony eyes met, like youths swearing allegiance to a red flag.

Always ready.

Mingxi formed a seal, summoning Little Silver Flower and the others to protect Black Pearl.

“Luo.”

As soon as Little Silver Flower came out, it clamored to evolve too.

Being weaker than the newly arrived broodmother was one thing; they won by numbers. As a solitary Angel Dragon, it was understandable that it couldn’t win.

Now Golden Yuanbao had successfully evolved to Saint-level.

The clumsy fish Black Pearl was also catching up non-stop.

If that Bright Crystal guy also completed its evolution before it, wouldn’t it not even be able to rank third?!

Unbearable!

Mingxi was speechless. Only Little Silver Flower was still in the mood for a team competition.

“Don’t rush, your evolution isn’t like other Transcendent creatures. It depends not only on your foundation but also on opportunity.”

“Luo Luo?”

Can’t I even eat a little more eggshell?

“This can only quickly increase your energy value and Dragon attribute skill proficiency; it’s useless for evolution.”

Mingxi patted its head reassuringly, “Don’t worry, you’re so lucky, you won’t become Silver Number Four.”

“Humph.”

Bright Crystal hummed like a piglet on the side, clearly also impatient for evolution.

“Alright, alright, everyone, let’s help Black Pearl get through this first.”

“...Luo.”

...Okay.

The Golden Yuanbao Seven nodded. They all realized the danger of Black Pearl’s evolution this time.

They knew that the situation that followed was very likely to be uncontrollable.

Even more uncontrollable than Golden Yuanbao’s evolution in the Beginning of Evolution Domain.

“Principal, esteemed seniors, my Aninos is also about to evolve, and the situation might be quite dangerous.

For the safety of the students, please head to Shende Building and protect the students with Vice Dean Yuan and other teachers.”

Mingxi did not ask them to stay and help.

It wasn’t because they weren’t close, but because she felt there were still unstable factors among this group of people.

She didn’t want to be distracted by guarding against her own people at a critical moment, nor did she want to be stabbed in the back by her own people in a crisis.

Everyone was stunned, looking at each other.

Li Yuan’s eyes, however, flashed with understanding. This little girl was indeed very smart.
