Elf: How do you cultivate immortality in the elf world?

Chapter 325 Evolution! The Silver-White Behemoth!
The Ashkule Secret Realm is not suitable for human survival, and even for the vast majority of elves.

The entire secret realm is a continuous cluster of volcanoes, and the only Pokémon within it are Fire-type, Ground-type, and Rock-type.

Of course, there are more fire-type spirits.

Lu Li glanced at his phone, which felt like it was about to explode.

The temperature shown above is 42 degrees Celsius, and it continues to rise as we get closer to the Ashkul volcano.

The temperature quickly reached 57 degrees Celsius.

Lu Li reluctantly put his phone into his storage ring. Electronic devices could easily explode in this kind of environment, and Lu Li didn't want to carry a bomb with him.

Lu Li released Charizard. Even Star Spirits were not quite used to this secret realm. Only fire-type Pokémon like Charizard could barely survive here.

"Fire~"

(The fire element energy here is so concentrated.)
The Charizard shouted excitedly.

Looking at the Charizard roaring before him, even spitting out pillars of fire, Lu Li shook his head helplessly and then reminded him, "Keep a low profile. Although this is only a medium-sized secret realm, there are still champion-level Pokémon here."

Charizard nodded, then silently lay down.

Climbing onto the back of the fire-breathing dragon, Lu Li commanded, "Go straight to the largest volcano."

Charizard nodded.

Lu Li was worried that the overlord of this secret realm would cause him trouble, after all, this secret realm was under the jurisdiction of the Alliance Office, and the Alliance had long since reached a cooperation agreement with the overlord of this secret realm.

As long as you don't provoke the master of the secret realm, the master of the secret realm will not attack the trainer who enters the secret realm.

For Lu Li, the only one who could be considered a threat in a medium-sized secret realm was the Secret Realm Overlord.

Charizard's gymnasium-level aura was quite intimidating; the Charizard, speeding along, didn't encounter any Pokémon that dared to challenge it.

Soon, Lu Li followed the fire-breathing dragon to the largest volcano in the Ashkule Secret Realm.

Just as they were about to land, a terrifying aura suddenly pressed down on them.

A massive Blazing Tortoise emerged from the lava and stared coldly at him.

The overlord of the secret realm, Blazemon, and a champion-level one at that!
"Human! What are you doing here?" Blazing Turtle Beast asked in human language.

Lu Li quickly explained, "I came here to use the power of the volcano for some kind of special training."

Despite being only a Champion-level monster, Turtlemon can easily crush him in the Secret Realm without any powerful backers.

"Special training?" Turtlemon glanced thoughtfully at Charizard, then roared, "Fake! State your purpose, or I'll get angry."

Seeing that the other party was so clever, Lu Li had no choice but to reveal his purpose.

"Alright, I came here to use the power of the volcano to create a special elf item."

This time, Blazing Turtlemon didn't question it.

Blazing Turtle Beast said in an unquestionable tone, "This volcano won't do, let's go to another one."

Lu Li nodded decisively, then patted the Charizard's neck.

Upon receiving instructions, the fire-breathing dragon flew towards the second largest volcano.

Watching Lu Li's retreating figure, the Blazing Turtle Beast muttered in a low voice, "Strange human, he actually carries the aura of several gods, and also that aura of that one."

If it were anyone else who inexplicably trespassed into its territory, Blazing Turtle would definitely teach them a lesson.

But it didn't take action against Lu Li, because there was a god above him.

The reason it became the overlord of this secret realm was not because of its strength, but simply because it was long-lived and outlived other elves.

Therefore, it became the overlord of this secret realm.

Blazing Turtle Beast knows all too well how to protect its own life; strength is only temporary, but life is forever.

After all, it is only in its middle age now. If we only consider its lifespan, it can live for at least another 100,000 years.

He couldn't bring himself to gamble away 100,000 years of his life for the offense of a human.

Turtlemon is not very strong; at least among champion-level overlords of the same rank, Turtlemon's strength is definitely at the lower end.

Lu Li had just learned this, but the fact that it was at the bottom among the champion-level overlords did not mean that Blazemon was weak.

The second volcano also has an owner, a Celestial King-level Blazing Turtle Beast.

Upon seeing Lu Li arrive, the Blazing Turtle Beast crawled out of the lava.

"Our ancestor told me that this place is temporarily lent to you." After saying this, the Blazing Turtle Beast climbed out of the volcano.

Land from:"???"

Lu Li stared blankly at the Blazing Turtle Beast, which was cooperating so well. He had prepared for a fierce battle, but this was the result?
The Charizard, which had been somewhat eager to try, instantly felt extremely disappointed.

Why is there no fighting even when we get to the secret realm?

Charizard and Lu Li exchanged a glance, both seeing confusion and helplessness in each other's eyes.

Lu Li was puzzled as to why this wild Pokémon was so cooperative. Charizard was puzzled as to why this Elite Four-level Pokémon was so cowardly, lacking any of its Elite Four-level pride.

"Let's go visit the third brother. It'll only be a matter of 10 days to half a month anyway." After saying this to himself, the Blazing Turtle Beast slowly crawled towards the volcano not far away.

After taking out the refining furnace from his spatial ring, Lu Li instructed the fire-breathing dragon beside him, "Fire-breathing dragon, you're in charge of keeping watch from now on. I'm going to start refining the metal membrane."

Charizard nodded, but its eyes kept glancing at the volcano not far away.

Then, Lu Li released the Great Natural Bird.

"Please look after the Charizard, Great Nargacuga," Lu Li asked again.

He knew Charizard's personality all too well, and Lu Li didn't expect it not to cause him trouble. Charizard would definitely go and spar with other wild Pokémon.

Lu Li asked the Great Nargacuga simply hoping that it would look after Charizard and prevent it from being beaten to death.

Charizard is indeed powerful, but it's also quite sarcastic.

Lu Li was quite clear about this.

The large natural bird nodded expressionlessly.

He was just a tool, a bodyguard; these things were entirely within his authority.

After arranging everything, Lu Li carefully took out the thorny fruit ball that sealed Melu Meta.

A considerable amount of silvery metallic fluid was poured out, and Lu Li then took out various rare metals from his spatial ring.

After throwing all these rare metals into the refining furnace, Lu Li formed hand seals and began extracting the metal essence from them.

This process is exceptionally long and tedious, sometimes lasting up to a week.

A week later, Lu Li let out a heavy sigh.

The refining is complete; the next step is smelting and casting.

Time slowly passed once again.

More than a week later, the God Metal Membrane was finally completed.

After the completion of the Divine Metal Membrane, it did not trigger any extraordinary phenomena in the heavens and earth.

But Lu Li was extremely excited. Using Merumita's body as a base, after melting hundreds of rare metals, the Divine Metal Membrane was finally forged.

And there was more than one. Lu Li carefully put away the divine metal membrane.

The amount of God Metal membrane is close to one ton, while the amount of God Metal membrane needed for Onix to evolve is only about 100 kilograms.

The divine metal membrane he refined in half a month is probably enough to evolve ten Onix into Steelix.

However, the Divine Metal Membrane is not only used as an evolution tool for spirits; it can also be used to forge a natal magic flying sword.

With the Ancient Sword Leopard Broken Sword and the Divine Metal Membrane, he has now gathered two top-tier flying sword forging materials.

After Lu Li put away the refining furnace, the Great Natural Bird quietly came to his side.

"Ok?"

Lu Li nodded: "Call the Charizard, we should leave here."

Upon hearing this, the Great Natural Bird vanished from its spot once more.

A short while later, the Great Nargacuga returned to Lu Li's side with the battered Charizard.

Seeing Charizard looking so disheveled, Lu Li couldn't help but laugh and tease, "Hey! Isn't this Little Red? How come you've gotten so messy after just a few days?"

"Humph~"

The arrogant Charizard snorted and retorted, "I just look disheveled."

Lu Li nodded.

He had already checked Charizard's injuries as soon as it appeared.

The Charizard looked disheveled, but it wasn't actually injured in its core; its body was almost entirely covered in superficial wounds.

After teasing Charizard for a while, Lu Li said, "We're leaving."

Charizard nodded.

It has already challenged all the worthy opponents, and has lost interest in this place.

If we're talking about the one in the most hurry to leave, it has to be the Great Natural Bird.

He really didn't want to stay in this awful place for even a second longer; the environment was too dry and the weather was too hot.

After leaving the secret realm, the Great Natural Bird couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This is the world where normal elves should live!
Before leaving Yutian City, Lu Li specially treated the guard captain to a meal before departing.

Lu Li did not delete the other person's friend, after all, he actually had quite a few friend slots.

Upon returning to the villa, Lu Li felt no sense of unfamiliarity.

After all, he had been focused on refining the divine metal membrane these past few days, and time had passed in the blink of an eye for him.

Back at the villa, Lu Li didn't even have time to rest before releasing the Onix that had been eagerly waiting.

"Rock~"

The giant onyx looked at Lu Li with anticipation.

"Don't rush, we still need to set up the venue." Lu Li said, and then led the elves to get busy.

For Onix to evolve into Steelix, a metal coating alone is not enough; it also needs a special environment, a rather unique magnetic field.

After setting up the equipment, Lu Li then started the magnetic field device.

After doing all this, Lu Li used his divine sense to control the metal membrane to slowly flow out and then gradually envelop the entire body of the giant rock snake.

When the metal membrane completely covered the entire Onix, a dazzling white light appeared as expected.

Due to its large size, Onix's evolution caused a great commotion; even from several kilometers away, people could see its dazzling white light.

As the white light gradually rose, a large, silvery-white steel snake appeared in Lu Li's sight.

Normal Steelix is ​​gray, but Luli's Onix is ​​silver-gray.

Lu Li stroked his chin and complained, "Why do I feel like you're more suited to the name 'Little Silver' than Little Silver?"

"Gold~"

The iron dumbbell next to it protested vehemently.

Steelix stared speechlessly at its trainer, who had such a wicked sense of humor.

I feel incredibly strong right now, yet you're only concerned about my name?
After making a small joke, Lu Li then seriously examined the Steelix.

Its body length exceeded 10 meters. Normal Steelixes are generally less than 10 meters in length. Lu Li specifically scanned it with his divine sense and found that the Steelix was 12 meters long, two meters longer than normal Steelixes, and also heavier than its kind.

Secondly, there's strength. Steelix, through the power of evolution, directly raised its strength to the peak of the elite level.

He was almost at the gym level.

Lu Li was actually not satisfied with the Steelix's level, considering that the God Metal Membrane could be considered a divine object.

Even after fully absorbing a legendary item, Steelix couldn't break through to the Gym Leader level. If he didn't know that Steelix was usually a hardworking and honest guy, he would have suspected that Steelix was secretly slacking off.

However, although its strength didn't improve, Steelix's potential did.

Steelix now possesses the potential to reach Master level, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, it has essentially secured a spot in the God Realm.

That's the biggest gain.

Secondly, there's the shimmering effect brought about by the God Metal Coat. Because of the God Metal Coat, Steelix gains an additional shimmering ability.

Lu Li named it Iron Armor, and this characteristic should be inherited from Meru Meta's Iron Fist.

The effect is that Steelix's body-strengthening moves become stronger, such as Tackle, Harden, Iron Tail, and even Suicide Slam.

Overall, Lu Li was satisfied with the result. The only regret was that Steelix couldn't take advantage of this opportunity to break into the Gym level.

"But... Steelix is ​​pretty cool too!" Lu Li gently stroked Steelix's body.

In this world, people generally describe Steelix as having a body harder than diamonds. Lu Li thinks that his Steelix's body might be even harder than diamond.

Seeing the white light rushing over, Freya walked up to Lu Li and asked curiously, "The special metal membrane that allows Onix to undergo Shiny Evolution? Is this the effect of the Gan family's Divine Metal Membrane?"

Lu Li shook his head and explained, "The Gan family's Divine Metal Membrane doesn't have this effect; it's only my improved Divine Metal Membrane that has this effect."

Freya sighed enviously, "It's a pity that there aren't any Pokémon with the Psychic attribute that need to use the God Metal Coat."

Flash evolution can improve aptitude and increase strength by such a huge margin; it's even more miraculous than a divine artifact.

Not far away, Iron Dumbbell curiously looked at the divine metal membrane in the bucket, and then curiously "ate" a bite.

Feeling the divine metal membrane transform into energy that filled his entire body, Iron Dumbbell's eyes lit up, and then he couldn't wait to "eat" it.

This stuff seems even more potent than elixirs!
Lu Li was chatting with Freya when he finally noticed the iron dumbbell, who was almost completely submerged in the bucket.

"Little Silver! You spendthrift! This thing isn't for eating!" Lu Li shouted in terror.

Freya stared in disbelief at the iron dumbbells swirling wildly in the bucket.

It's no exaggeration to say that in just that short time, Iron Dumbbell probably ate the equivalent of two mines.

Lu Li quickly ran over, pulled out the iron dumbbell, and then put the bucket into his spatial ring.
