Chapter 1124: [Journey Through the Worlds] is a bug

Mingxi’s chilling gaze swept over the two creatures obediently kneeling opposite her.

“Zhen Gua.”

Bright Crystal raised its paw, indicating, “Xiao Ye doesn’t know, ask it.”

It wasn’t that Bright Crystal was being disloyal; it truly didn’t know where that section of Kurong Jianmu Tree branch came from.

Even if it was at fault, it was definitely not the culprit. It was purely a pitiful Transcendent creature innocently implicated by a silly fish.

Black Pearl blinked its large, Black Pearl-like eyes.

It seemed as if a Spring Surge was brewing.

“No Spring Surge allowed,” Mingxi said with a cold face.

(｡-_-｡)

Interrupting fake crying, starting with me.

Black Pearl: (´._.｀)

“As.”

Despite its grievances.

Black Pearl still obediently described in meticulous detail how it discovered the Kurong Jianmu Tree and boldly broke off a branch.

During this, it didn’t forget to guide its master.

After listening to Black Pearl’s neither concise nor brief adventure, Mingxi’s sharp gaze grew even more profound.

Actually, the process was very simple.

After Black Pearl and Bright Crystal took Chiyu deep into the lake, they initially had no intention of doing anything to disrupt the harmony; they were very serious about ‘babysitting’ too.

Moreover, they were looking after Chiyu, a ‘Mother Yaksha’ who could make them wish they were dead.

They were just aimlessly loitering in the lake.

Unexpectedly, they discovered a strange light band at the bottom of the lake.

Bright Crystal noticed that when Black Pearl passed through that light band, its body actually showed signs of splitting into upper and lower halves.

At that ❖ Nоvеl𝚒ght ❖ (Exclusive on Nоvеl𝚒ght) time, that scene almost gave it a heart attack.

It thought they had encountered a terrifying attack ray.

Fortunately, it was just a false alarm.

That light band would indeed split their bodies into two parts, but it wouldn't harm them in the slightest.

They, of course, didn’t understand the principle of light refraction and reflection. Driven by pure curiosity, Black Pearl forcefully swam into that light band using Myriad Realms Travel.

Then it discovered that the light band was actually an enclosed small space, and in that space, there was a tree and a sleeping Transcendent creature.

Worried that the Transcendent creature would wake up and attack it, Black Pearl displayed the hand speed of a one-year-old bachelor, quickly broke off a section of the branch, and then successfully escaped amidst the furious roars of the unfamiliar Transcendent creature.

Mingxi: ...

•ㅁ•꧞

She didn't know whether to say Black Pearl was a bug, or whether Black Pearl’s characteristic, Myriad Realms Travel, was a bug.

“Wait––”

Mingxi suddenly caught a detail in Black Pearl’s words, “You said you took Chiyu with you when you used Myriad Realms Travel?”

“As.”

Black Pearl nodded.

Master, you told me I must watch over Chiyu, or you’d kill me if I lost it.

So, it naturally had to stay close to Chiyu.

Mingxi’s face darkened, “I don’t think I said that.”

“As, As?”

“As...”

Master, I’ve lost Chiyu now. Can you please not kill your good baby? I... I really didn’t mean to, sniffle, sniffle...

Black Pearl’s moist eyes were filled with a sense of brokenness, as if at the next moment, it would become a fish slain by Mingxi’s axe.

Mingxi: ...

=_=

Such a familiar formula.

Full of tea flavor.

Pretentious and affected.

What?

Can their family’s love for acting be inherited across pet beasts?

No, Little Silver Flower isn’t that cringeworthy.

At least when Silver Flower acts, it doesn’t use three different self-appellations in one sentence.

Mingxi ruffled Black Pearl’s hair irritably, “Stop messing around! We’re talking serious business, and also, show some respect to Chiyu, who was left behind.”

She felt sorry for Chiyu.

“As.”

Black Pearl remembered Chiyu’s kindness and began to feel guilty.

Chiyu, I’m sorry too.

Mingxi tugged at its messy hair again, then pulled the topic back on track: “So your Myriad Realms Travel can bring other people?”

“...As...?”

Black Pearl seemed to suddenly realize, “It seems so, yes.”

It hadn't noticed before.

“Zhen Gua.”

Bright Crystal indicated it had something to say.

It could confirm that Black Pearl indeed took Chiyu into the light band together.

“Yuan Shi.”

Golden Yuanbao, squatting on Mingxi’s shoulder, spoke, believing it should be related to Rainbow Bubble.

Mingxi nodded.

“If Myriad Realms Travel can indeed bring people when combined with Rainbow Bubble, then Black Pearl’s characteristic is truly a bug.”

Others have black technology; it has a pure black characteristic.

It’s too overpowered.

“Yuan Shi?”

How about we let Black Pearl take Xiao Ye into the light band to try later?

Upon hearing this.

Bright Crystal immediately stated that anyone could be taken, but it had to be among them.

“...Black Pearl, first describe the Transcendent creature you saw in the light band space.”

Black Pearl was, after all, less than a year old. Most of its time was spent on eating, drinking, and playing. Its Time Realm time was used for training, and it had made no progress in cultural learning, so it was still semi-illiterate.

Its language description ability was only at a primary school level.

Fortunately, with Guangguang, the intelligent little assistant, even though Black Pearl’s description was ambiguous and abstract, it still accurately identified the guardian beast’s identity.

Treasure Mirror Elephant Dragon.

A dragon and ground dual-system Transcendent creature, a species that resembles both an elephant and a giant dragon.

At the same time, it is a mythical-grade Transcendent creature recognized by the Alliance.

Theoretically, it has been extinct for who knows how many millennia.

“Master, the Treasure Mirror Elephant Dragon simply cannot appear in this era.

Not only because there are no Treasure Mirror Trees in the current universe for its survival, but also because, like Luo Yi Nine Heavens, it needs to absorb a large amount of power of rules.”

Guangguang indicated that this matter was very strange, but according to Black Pearl’s description, there was no other possibility for the Transcendent creature it spoke of besides the Treasure Mirror Elephant Dragon.

“Could it be related to the Kurong Jianmu Tree?”

“The possibility is very small. The Kurong Jianmu Tree and the Treasure Mirror Tree are two different kinds of trees.

The Treasure Mirror Tree is an ancient divine tree, also known as the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasure Manifesting Mirror Tree.

From ancient times until now, there has only been one Treasure Mirror Tree, and it was destroyed along with the ancient era.”

When mentioning the Treasure Mirror Tree, Guangguang’s tone held a hint of longing and regret.

A Heaven and Earth Divine Tree.

It just disappeared like that.

“The Treasure Mirror Elephant Dragon is almost like a parasitic dodder on the Treasure Mirror Tree. Without the Treasure Mirror Tree, they simply cannot survive.”

Although the Kurong Jianmu Tree also belongs to rare heavenly treasures, compared to the Treasure Mirror Tree, it is like a firefly to a bright moon, or a speck of dust reflecting Mount Tai.

The difference between a spaceship and an ox cart.

Mingxi: “...Then I can only think of two possibilities.

One is that the Transcendent creature is not a Treasure Mirror Elephant Dragon at all, but some kind of Transcendent creature with shapeshifting abilities.

The other possibility is that the light band space and the one we are currently in are not in the same time dimension.”

Guangguang was startled.

“Master, do you think that light band space is in an ancient dimension? This, this, this... is this possible?”

Mingxi spread her hands: “Anything is possible.”

The word ‘Myriad Realms’ in Myriad Realms Travel already indicates its uniqueness.

Myriad Realms, it doesn’t limit time dimensions.
