Mingxi looked speechlessly at the six Pet Beasts standing in a row before her, then at the space forcibly created by Emerald Green and Red Jade.

She knew her Pet Beasts weren't well-behaved, but she never expected them to be so bold As to destroy a massive underground base.

According to them, that base was extraordinary; it could even trap rule fragments and use them to create tools, potions, and even integrate them into Transcendent creatures.

Even rare Time Rift Beasts were trapped within the base.

Just hearing about it, she knew that underground experimental base was far from ordinary.

Moreover, this was within a Secret Realm.

Who or what power could build such a large-scale, highly capable base deep beneath the sea in a Secret Realm?

Mingxi and Golden Ingot thought similarly, believing the base had a lot to do with Descent.

It wasn't that she blamed all bad things on the Descent Organization; it was just that these familiar inhumane, abnormal, and even crazy experiments always seemed to be linked to Descent.

Thinking about it, they seemed to have destroyed Descent's laboratories (bases) several times already.

Was it 'fate, wonderfully mysterious'? Or were the Descent Organization's illegal laboratories spread across the world, more numerous than imagined?

It could be both.

Mingxi's gaze swept over the faces of the six Golden Ingot, finally settling on Bright Crystal, who had acted on its own first. This time, the commotion was so great that it couldn't be entirely Bright Crystal's fault, but if responsibility needed to be shared, it would have to take at least half.

However, that was its nature.

When it came to boldness, the curious Bright Crystal was no match for it.

Mingxi sighed.

Fortunately, the final outcome was good.

So, should she praise their courage, or criticize their reckless actions?

In the end, she was conflicted.

...

Seeing their downcast, guilty, and evasive expressions, Mingxi sighed again.

"Do you know your mistake?"

Upon hearing this.

The five dejected Pet Beasts immediately looked up in unison.

"Lei!"

"As!"

"Luo!"

"Nan!"

"Ling!"

...

The five Golden Ingot answered in unison, their voices firm and powerful, As if afraid that if they were a second late, their Beastmaster would truly lose her temper.

They weren't afraid of their Beastmaster scolding them; they were afraid she might impulsively lock them in the Pet Space.

So, admitting their mistake had to be decisive!

No hesitation, hesitation would definitely lead to being locked in the dark room!

Then they realized there was an idiot among them.

They silently turned their heads to look at Bright Crystal, who stood boldly in the very center, arms crossed, with an expression that said, 'I am the best in the world.'

Good heavens!

This fellow didn't think it had made any mistake at all!

Feeling several exceptionally 'fiery' gazes, Bright Crystal blinked its big eye on its small face, revealing a clarity of stupidity even greater than a university student's.

Fierce, yet clear.

What a pure and unpretentious oddity.

...

Mingxi thought: As expected, one cannot have expectations for Bright Crystal; it simply doesn't have the concept of 'I can make mistakes' in its mind.

Just As she thought this, she heard Bright Crystal say:

"Prison Break."

I brought you many gifts.

Then it started pulling things out.

Shuttle of Weaving, Tear of Lament, Crown of Memory... a large number of unknown materials, various potions... and bottles full of collected negative emotions.

Everyone present, both people and Pet Beasts, was stunned.

When Bright Crystal entered the warehouse, the five Golden Ingot were causing chaos outside, naturally having no time to pay attention to the shared footage from the scout bees.

So, they truly knew nothing about Bright Crystal's haul.

Only Guangguang in the Time Realm had noticed.

Watching Bright Crystal display items like a street vendor, generously saying, 'So-and-so, this is for you,' and 'So-and-so, take that to play with.'

There was also Guangguang's real-time translated narration in their minds, explaining what these things Bright Crystal brought out were and what their uses were.

Mingxi: "..."

Golden Ingot Eight: "..."

The more they saw and heard, the more their faces twitched uncontrollably, unable to maintain normal expressions.

They couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that Descent isn't actually an enemy, but our angel investor?!"

"Jin."

Little White is quite good.

Emerald Green suddenly spoke, expressing its rare appreciation for Bright Crystal.

Mingxi glanced at it, naturally seeing a potion in its hand. According to Guangguang, this was a rule affinity potion, still a semi-finished product.

But precisely because it was a semi-finished product, it piqued Emerald Green's interest.

See, it even knew to speak well of Bright Crystal.

Indeed, one who accepts gifts is indebted, and one who eats is softened; even Emerald Green was corrupted by the sugar-coated bullets.

"Rupture Sky."

It's not bad.

Red Jade, who had been given several items by Bright Crystal, also chimed in.

"As!"

Black Pearl, hugging the negative emotion collection bottle, was the most direct, excitedly giving its 'Brother Bright' a loving hug, As enthusiastic As if it were its biological brother.

Mingxi: "..."

If she were to say now that she wanted to punish Bright Crystal, locking it in the 'dark room' for ten days or half a month, would her Pet Beasts give her the cold shoulder?

Indeed, there's nothing that money can't solve; if it can't, then it's definitely because not enough money was given.

Mingxi, who had also been given a pile of rare materials, closed her mouth.

As expected of its father, who has both a big and small name.

Who said it was clear and stupid? It's very smart!

...The Six Treasures' adventure thus passed with much thunder but no rain.

However, although the base was destroyed, there were many subsequent issues that needed to be dealt with.

Those captured Transcendent creatures needed to be sent away, especially some that had been modified by rule threads; their conditions were almost all not very good.

These were problems that Little Silver Flower's Divine Healing, Emerald Green's Life Leaf, and Xue Qingting's Grace of Nature couldn't solve.

Suitable places had to be arranged for them.

They definitely couldn't continue to stay in the Abyss Secret Realm, otherwise, something big would happen sooner or later.

Many Transcendent creatures were not Blue Star species; even if they could gradually adapt to the Abyss Secret Realm's environment, it would be a long process.

And some of them also suffered from homesickness.

So, a way had to be found to send them back, and this task could only rely on Red Jade.

Also, the rule fragments in that base couldn't be left unattended; these were also world wounds, and equally Mingxi's responsibility.

But the base collapsed, and the surrounding space was affected and also caved in.

This meant they still had to find a way to dig out the base.

The engineering work was immense.

"Don't worry, you continue to deal with the rule fragments here, and we'll find a way to dig out the base space."

The noble snake rubbed Mingxi's shoulder with the tip of its tail, comforting her deep sorrow.

What Mingxi worried about seemed like nothing to it.

They now had not just nine of them, but hundreds of laborers.

Oh right, they could also go find the Sea Sand Four Ox tribe; the idle Sea Sand Four Ox would surely be very willing to help their saviors.

Sea Sand Four Ox: Don't come over here!

Mingxi was comforted.

There were indeed many things to do, but it was just a matter of time.

After assigning the tasks, Mingxi once again immersed herself in repairing the rule fragments.

Time flowed like water.

One month, two months... As December was about to end, Mingxi finally finished repairing all the rule fragments, including those from the re-excavated base.

When the last rule fragment bore the fruit of rules, the gratitude from the world wound once again made a grand appearance.

Black Pearl's level returned to Saint-level under the 'friendly sponsorship' of the negative emotion collection bottle and the world wound.

The energy values of Silver Mist Jade Red White Purple Six directly reached their peak.

What surprised them even more was that the Venerable-level evolution methods appeared in their minds!

This way, they no longer had to rely on luck to evolve!

Congratulations!

Mingxi's reward was relatively simple.

It was a physical fitness boost.

It directly pushed her to the peak of SSS-level, just short of breaking through that seemingly illusory membrane.

This feeling was like being forcibly infused with sixty years of cultivation, her body brimming with power.

At the same time, due to continuously repairing rule fragments, she luckily completed the physical transformation of her mental power.

When her brain development was measured.

Good heavens!

96.33%

This was even more exaggerated than a new Beastmaster completing three awakenings in one day.

It also gave Mingxi a little confidence, making her feel that she could break through the Beastmaster's level shackles.

In comparison, the 'rewards' Golden Ingot and Yao Xuan received were the most inconspicuous.

Golden Ingot's talent improved, reaching the maximum EX.

The latter gained an increase in lifespan, an additional 10 years.

"...Lei Lei."

Golden Ingot held its freshly printed test report, feeling a bit melancholic. If it could, it wished that what improved was not its talent, but its luck.

Who wants to be unlucky.

And unlucky in a way that affects those around them.

Hearing its murmur, Mingxi chuckled, "Your bad luck now basically manifests in the Pool of Creation. What can the Pool of Creation do? Isn't it just to improve talent? So you've directly achieved it in one go, which is quite good."

Golden Ingot's luck was indeed not good.

She had reason to suspect that the Sijin Bell they had placed in the base being activated prematurely was due to its bad luck influencing it; otherwise, the timing... could not be explained by non-metaphysical means.

Red Jade also didn't want to take the blame, after all, the third-generation Sijin Bell had undergone many tests and never had a problem.

But to say Golden Ingot was so unlucky that it affected those around it, that truly wasn't the case, As every outcome was good.

It could only be said that there was an influence, but it wasn't significant.

"Mingxi is right, your bad luck isn't necessarily a bad thing. As the saying goes, things turn for the better after reaching an extreme, which shows that 'misfortune' and 'fortune' are actually complementary."

Yao Xuan said, then started shaking his head: "Misfortune will eventually end, prosperity can be anticipated. The cold night returns to the warm dawn, and spring branches green the willows."

Mingxi: "..."

Golden Ingot: "..."

You are truly amazing.

With the world wound completely 'healed,' Mingxi no longer had to worry about a second abyssal silence will appearing, and they could finally embark on their journey home.

This was also because she controlled the mirror of creation {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} and destruction of the Abyss Secret Realm; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to stay in the Secret Realm for such a long time.

During this period, Emerald Green created a rule fusion potion based on the semi-finished rule affinity potion, which could, to a certain extent, alleviate the pain of Transcendent creatures whose bodies had been forcibly implanted with rule threads, and allow those rule threads that constantly damaged their bodies to truly merge with them, becoming their power!

Emerald Green is a true genius!

The problem that so many researchers in that base hadn't solved for so many years was thus easily resolved by it!

If those who perished underground knew about this, how despairing would they be?

However, because the materials for making this potion required a medicinal herb root called Golden Spine Pride, and the Time Realm had a limited supply of this material, Emerald Green only produced about ten rule fusion potions. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Golden Spine Pride is not a rare or hard-to-find material; on the contrary, it is quite common.

But precisely because it was so ordinary, Mingxi hadn't collected too much.

Before the rule fusion potion appeared, Golden Spine Pride was just one of the materials for making energy pellets for Transcendent creatures like Turing Butterflies, with no other uses.

The Time Realm had some stored only because Emerald Green was a pharmacist.

Better safe than sorry.

So, to completely heal these Transcendent creatures and allow them to safely integrate the rule threads within their bodies, they would have to wait until they returned to Huaguo.

Additionally, Red Jade also successfully created an item that would allow the Transcendent creatures in the Secret Realm to leave the Secret Realm with them.

For Red Jade, who was also a genius, this was not difficult.

Before leaving the Secret Realm, they returned to the deep sea and found the Abyssal Mermaid, who had already established a new tribal land, and asked if they were willing to leave the Secret Realm with them and live on Blue Star.

After all, taking one group was taking, and taking another group was also taking.

The Immortal Sky Chain created by Red Jade could bind tens of thousands of targets at once, which was quite domineering.

Hearing that Mingxi could take them out of the Secret Realm, Sariya was almost instantly tempted without thinking. She had always wanted to see human society.

And she was very interested in the Mystic Mirage Sea Mingxi mentioned.

Moreover, their empress also lived on Blue Star.

As loyal subjects, they naturally hoped to see her often and feel her aura.

So, the newly built tribal land was directly abandoned.

The Abyssal Mermaid decided to follow Mingxi As a whole tribe.

So when Uncle Yan Xu received a call and heard that Mingxi had brought back a group of wild Transcendent creatures from the Abyss Secret Realm, including thousands of extinct Youhai Mermaids, he was a bit stunned.

Fortunately, As a Grand Elder, he had seen many grand occasions.

Taking a deep breath, he quickly composed himself.

"Immediately send the best breeders, Beastmasters, and medical teams. Ensure the safety of those Transcendent creatures, and seal off relevant information..."

A series of orders were issued.

And were executed with the highest efficiency.

At the same time, all details about the deep-sea underground base were narrated by the six Golden Ingot, recorded and organized into a report by Guangguang, and sent to the Silver Radiance Group.

Mingxi also handed over all the Transcendent creatures implanted with rule threads to the state for placement.

Emerald Green also proactively shared the formula for the rule fusion potion. Of course, to thank its selflessness, the state also gave back valuable rewards.

Among them were all the materials needed for their six Pet Beasts to evolve to Venerable-level.

It could be said that losing one Emerald Green benefited a group of Pet Beasts.

After Mingxi, the hands-off boss, completely handed over the mess, she went home and spent New Year's Day with her grandmother and old father. After organizing her gains from the Secret Realm, she once again quietly ran away from home.

She hadn't forgotten about the Phaseless Chess.

And Anji Country just happened to have an environment very suitable for the evolution of Little Silver Flower and Emerald Green.
