[Tidal Cloud Sea] was a little tempted.
As an anomaly born from natural phenomena, being stuck at the peak of danger level 7 meant it wasn't actually powerful enough.
Generally speaking, the larger an entity, the harder it is for it to develop sentience. But once a miracle occurs and it is born, it is often blessed by nature and inherently divine.
[Tidal Cloud Sea]'s current home was a vast mountain range. This mountain range had created it; the special terrain and humidity in the mountains had allowed it to be born.
On the other hand, once it grew to a certain size, this mountain range also limited its potential. The mountainous terrain was only beneficial to the "Cloud Sea," but offered almost no help to its core, the "Tidal" aspect.
There were three reasons why [Tidal Cloud Sea] was tempted:
1. [Huangyi]'s strength. It was a power that couldn't be hidden even when restrained and purely defensive. No matter where you are, the words of the strong inherently carry more credibility.
2. The unparalleled sense of intimacy radiating from Chen Miemie. It was a feeling that made [Tidal Cloud Sea] deeply yearn for contact from the bottom of its heart. If it helped look after the base in the future, they could stay together often.
3. Chen Miemie had already proven with actual facts that he could fulfill the promise of the "Three Moons' Radiance." At this moment, the almost tangible light of the Eternal Moon was right before its eyes, shining upon the entire sea of clouds.
After a good while, [Tidal Cloud Sea] finally made up its mind.
"Alright, I am willing to agree to your request."
Chen Miemie really liked dealing with anomalies.
For example, when it came to communication, he found most anomalies to be very hassle-free.
When negotiating terms, they were straightforward. If he showed his utmost sincerity right away, the anomalies wouldn't engage in endless probing and back-and-forth like humans did. It saved both sides the calculating haggling; a simple yes or no settled it.
"[Tidal Cloud Sea], we need to sign a contract. Are you willing to follow me?"
"Why is the content of this contract different from 'helping to guard the base' like we just discussed?"
"Right, [Tidal Cloud Sea]. A base will definitely have many companions inside. After signing the contract, you will be able to control your passive abilities so you won't hurt our own people."
"What! Control my passives! Are you..."
[Tidal Cloud Sea] was not an isolated entity; there were always many different species active in its mountain range.
"So, [Tidal Cloud Sea], are you willing?"
"I am willing. It is my honor."
[Invitation of the Moon] complete.
Chen Miemie's team welcomed the strongest and largest member in its history.
As the contract took effect, the ferocious cloud beasts around them transformed one by one, changing from vicious monsters into cute little deer, rabbits, and capybaras.
Chen Miemie withdrew his moonlight shield and was instantly surrounded by all sorts of adorable creatures, each rubbing their heads against him.
Soon, [Tidal Cloud Sea]'s yellow text panel generated.
[Tidal Cloud Sea [Mystery] 7.9 [Immortality] 7.9 Abilities: Cloud Sea, Tidal, Airspace Lockdown, Eternal Moon Kin]
[The cloud tide contains massive kinetic energy capable of destroying airborne objects. Its tidal patterns perfectly correspond with the movement of the three moons, making it a natural astrological clock. It can block outside vision, and objects within its coverage cannot be divined or calculated by peers of the same tier.]
[Delirium Cloud Yokai (Swarm) [Mystery] 2~7 [Immortality] 7.9 Mental pollution entities born within the Tidal Cloud Sea. Their appearance is unfixed; normally they take the form of clouds, but they change shape during combat, releasing an "Aura of Panic" that triggers baseless fear, auditory and visual hallucinations in creatures within range. Difficult to harm with physical means.]
Only then did Chen Miemie realize that these little cloud beasts were new anomalies derived from [Tidal Cloud Sea].
"I found out that not only are my passives controllable, but I seem to have broken through to a new realm!" [Tidal Cloud Sea] cried out in pleasant surprise.
"Not exactly. That is a temporary buff from being an 'Eternal Moon Kin,' which only takes effect during the Eternal Moon Night. By the way, do you have a shorter name?"
"No. I rarely communicate with others, so a name is rarely used."
"Then I'll give you one. Seeing how surging and spectacular you are, from now on, you'll be called 'Haomiao'."
"Haomiao? This name sounds very imposing, very nice. Then I will be called Haomiao."
Taking in Haomiao was considered successfully completing the first step.
Next was how to take Haomiao away.
Origami obviously couldn't fold such a massive sea of clouds.
Unexpectedly, Qinghua played a role.
After breaking through to Tier 6, Qinghua had developed a skill called "Tri-Color Glaze Light," which could use porcelain to reflect light and seal a target into the porcelain, turning it into a pattern on the porcelain.
This skill was very strong, but logically speaking, it wasn't strong enough for a Tier 6 Qinghua to seal the currently Tier 8 Haomiao.
This was crossing two major tiers; Qinghua had only given it a try.
Unexpectedly, with Haomiao's active cooperation, it was actually sealed by Qinghua into a porcelain painting, generating a "Thousand Li Landscape Shrouded in Cloud Sea."
This special landscape painting could no longer be shrunk by Origami, and couldn't even withstand violent shaking, otherwise Haomiao inside would break out of the painting.
Holding the landscape painting, Chen Miemie began a new round of traveling.
He was extremely careful along the way, and his speed wasn't even as fast as when he came.
23:10.
He finally arrived at the wonder [Cloud-Feeding Flock].
As soon as he arrived, without waiting for Chen Miemie to invite it.
The landscape painting was shattered, and Haomiao emerged from inside, instantly spreading out.
"Chen Miemie, this cloud is very useful to me, can I use it?"
Chen Miemie was also amused: "Of course. This is the base I chose, and it's also the place you need to guard well."
Haomiao's clouds and mist began to overlap with the clouds of the [Cloud-Feeding Flock].
The two originally different clouds didn't fight; instead, like different liquids, they blended together.
Soon, Chen Miemie and the surrounding anomalies couldn't distinguish which part was Haomiao and which part was the [Cloud-Feeding Flock].
"Alright, Chen Miemie, thank you. I have never felt so powerful for a single moment. With this [Cloud-Feeding Flock], if a Tier 8 Mystic comes to this area, they'll find it very hard to leave without some solid skills."
The anomalies around Chen Miemie didn't feel Haomiao getting stronger; they only felt that the [Cloud-Feeding Flock]'s cloud-transforming effect on bones had disappeared.
"Does this [Cloud-Feeding Flock] have such a huge effect on you? You said a Tier 8 couldn't leave. If it's outside the Eternal Moon Night and you return to Tier 7, can you still do it?"
"It would be slightly discounted, but I think it should still be possible. The [Cloud-Feeding Flock] and I share the same origin as clouds, making us almost indistinguishable from each other. I can fully share its power. Added together, our 1+1 is far greater than 2."
Chen Miemie didn't believe it: "You're bragging. As far as I know, there is no such thing as being invincible within the same tier in this world. [Mysteries] hide and counter each other; they are bizarre, unpredictable, and variables are everywhere."
Haomiao thought for a moment: "You are right, but you might not have considered my size. According to my past experience, in the face of an absolute size difference, I don't know what it means to be countered."
Chen Miemie: ...
Alright, alright, so you even got a chance to humblebrag, huh.
Pure Water chuckled quietly off to the side.
Haomiao was not arrogant by nature. On the contrary, as a sea of clouds, it was naturally ethereal and aloof.
It was simply telling the truth.
Water can extinguish fire, which means water counters fire. However, a single bucket of water thrown at an entire volcano is nothing more than a drop in the ocean, rendering the concept of a natural counter completely meaningless.
The problem that Chen Miemie could not wrap her head around was easily demystified by Bobo in a single sentence.
"Haomiao getting the Cloud-Feeding Flock is just like the great Bobo getting the Lunar Phase Cheese. What is so strange about it becoming stronger?"

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
