An abstract trainer who taught Charmander the Incinerate move

Chapter 276 Six Styles: Moon Step, Angers Strikes!
As the skill machine in her mind was activated, the training method for Moonwalk appeared before Lu Mingfei's eyes.

[The first step of the Moonwalk Cultivation Method - Soaring Through the Air]

Cultivators must channel combat energy into the soles of their feet, continuously creating spiraling waves of energy with each step, producing visible circular ripples with every step. Only when a cultivator can take seven consecutive steps during a fall, transforming the downward momentum into a state of suspended cloud, with lotus-shaped bursts of energy blooming beneath their feet, can they be considered to have begun to grasp the basics.

[Moonwalking Cultivation Method, Step Two - Heavenly Ladder]

The cultivator must stomp their feet at a high frequency, causing the air to groan, each step leaving a vacuum footprint in the air, as if stepping on an invisible ladder to heaven. Only when the cultivator's feet form a spiral pillar of heaven, and their figure breaks through the clouds, leaving a long-lasting footprint in the air, can they be considered to have entered the inner sanctum.

[Moonwalk Cultivation Technique, Third Step - Heavenly Dragon Flash]

The cultivator transforms into a soaring dragon roaming the heavens, each step subtly in harmony with the movement of the stars. He can continuously traverse nine heavenly steps in the clear sky, creating a tornado-like rainbow vortex as his steps overlap. With the final step, he can break through the convection layer's constraints. At this moment, Moon Step is no longer a physical technique, but has evolved into a heavenly law of soaring through the air.

"Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh!!!"

With a roar that tore through the sky, Lu Mingfei suddenly exerted force with her feet, stomping on the air beneath her feet.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Five visible, milky-white shockwaves exploded in the air in succession, a manifestation of the initial stage of the Navy's Six Styles [Moon Walk] training: [Soaring Void Step]!

Its blue body transformed into a blur of light in the air, each step causing the surrounding air currents to whistle. It seemed to be treading on lotus flowers, and its speed was so fast that it left a short trail of blue light behind it, its target being the wind god king in the clouds, who was as tall as a mountain!
[Huh?! A mere land-based lackey, not even capable of flight, can actually walk on air?!]

For the first time, a hint of astonishment, beyond mere mockery, flashed in the giant eye formed by the storm vortex of the tornado cloud.

This behavior, which violates the laws of flight that it controls, is undoubtedly a provocation against its divine authority!

The astonishment quickly turned into a furious rage at being defied by ants!
It didn't even bother to use the terrifying skill empowered by the [Wind God's Authority]. Instead, it casually raised its other giant hand, formed from pure storm, as if swatting a fly, and slammed it down on the ignorant blue streak with a powerful wind pressure that could crush stars!
This palm strike, seemingly slow, actually instantly blocked all of Lu Mingfei's space to dodge. Before the palm wind even arrived, the terrifying pressure had already caused the remaining Tianjian Bridge below to collapse and sink again!

"boom--!!!"

The giant hand struck Lu Mingfei squarely, just like it had struck a real flying insect!

The blue figure shot back like a meteor at an even faster speed than it had gone, crashing heavily into the already riddled bridge below and embedding itself in an even deeper and larger crater. The sound of bones shattering was sickening, and blood instantly stained the surrounding rubble.

His breath grew weaker again.

A glint flashed in Dan Yu's golden eyes, and her clenched fist turned even whiter.

Mo Zhen remained expressionless, but a hint of calculation flashed deep in his eyes.

Deathly silence descended for the third time.

But this time, even the tornado cloud instinctively turned its gaze toward the deep pit.

An ominous premonition, like a cold, venomous snake, quietly coiled around its heart, which was made of wind.

BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB——! ! !
Accompanied by the familiar button sound effects, the column of water condensed from the Water of Life shot into the sky once again.

"Om-!"

A white beam of light mixed with ominous black light, thicker and more dazzling than ever before, like a demon god's pillar piercing through heaven and earth, shot into the sky from the deep pit where Lu Mingfei fell!

The next moment, Lu Mingfei's level increased to 41!
Something for nothing — 300% power, all on!

“Crack, click, click, click—!”

The water of life poured down like a waterfall, and a chilling sound of bones popping came from the bottom of the pit, as if countless pieces of steel were being reassembled!
"Shh-!"

Without the slightest pause, Lu Mingfei, having completed her resurrection, vanished once more!
No, it didn't disappear, it just went too fast, exceeding the limits of what the naked eye can capture!
This time, the [Moon Step] has surpassed the [Soaring Step] and is faintly touching the threshold of the [Sky Staircase]!

Its figure left countless blue afterimages in the air. With each step it took, a spiraling vortex of air exploded beneath its feet, as if an invisible staircase had truly appeared beneath it. The shrill sound of the air being torn apart blended together, piercing people's eardrums!

【What? ! 】

For the first time, an expression of disbelief and shock appeared on the massive storm face of the tornado cloud!
The opponent's speed was several times faster than before, making it feel somewhat sluggish and difficult to catch!
Dan Yu glanced sideways, and in her golden eyes, which were a molten gold, she clearly saw Lu Mingfei's ghostly figure. A faint look of surprise finally crossed her usually cold face.

"This momentum... is actually no less than that of Gulerton in his blood-boosting state..."

She murmured softly, her gaze involuntarily turning to Mo Zhen, who stood with his hands behind his back, his red suit fluttering in the wind.

"Could it be... that Master Mo Zhen has enlightened this ordinary blue dog to such an extent?"

Mo Zhen still wore that enigmatic smile typical of artists, as if he had everything under control.

But only he knew that his heart was also in turmoil.

"Level 41 base, plus a 300% Something for Nothing bonus... This new feature is definitely a completely new version I haven't played before. I just don't know how strong the attack power will be..."

Just as the tornado cloud hesitated for a moment due to shock, the blue lightning that Lu Mingfei had transformed into had already torn through the last distance as if by teleportation, and rushed fiercely to the front of the tornado cloud's huge storm face!
The two sides are very close!
Lu Mingfei's eyes, which held the power of a lion, were fixed on the two constantly spinning blue vortexes in the eye of the tornado cloud storm!
There was no roar, no declaration of war, only the purest and most extreme killing intent!
The next moment, Lu Mingfei pulled her right arm back, and all the power in her body flowed like rivers into the sea, frantically converging towards her right elbow!

“Buzz——!!!”

A terrifying wave that sent chills down one's spine emanated from Lu Mingfei's elbow. The void behind it suddenly twisted, and an enormous black dragon phantom, seemingly formed from the deepest darkness, transformed into a gigantic black mamba serpent roaring to the sky, and suddenly appeared!
The black mamba phantom, entwined with endless defiance and a thirst for revenge, let out a silent roar, and then, as if alive, suddenly wrapped itself around Lu Mingfei's right elbow, which was poised to strike!
The ultimate technique—[Manchester Elbow]!!!
"Man—!!!"

Lu Mingfei finally squeezed out a hoarse and destructive syllable from deep in her throat, and her right elbow, which was full of power, slammed out like a meteorite from the chest, straight at the center of the face of the tornado cloud storm!

Time seems to freeze at this moment.

For the first time, the dark elbow strike containing the strange power of laws was reflected in the giant pupil of the tornado cloud!
Boom boom boom——!!!!

An indescribable explosion occurred!

The moment the Man King Elbow made contact with the Tornado Cloud's face, it exploded with a deafening roar!
It was not a simple physical impact; the invincible power of the contract law contained within it actually tore through the protection of the [Wind God's Authority] for a brief moment, and solidly crashed into the core of the tornado cloud, which was composed of pure wind elements!
【Ughh ...

The tornado cloud let out its first painful roar since the start of the war!
Its massive body was shaken for the first time, staggering uncontrollably backward. It was forcefully pushed by the huge impact and swept into the violent airflow behind it. The edges of its storm-formed body showed obvious signs of disintegration!

[Wow! Mingfei succeeded! Our teeth are saved!]

Xiao Mengzi jumped wildly on Mo Zhen's shoulder in excitement, her pink body twisted into a pretzel, and her eyes were filled with the ecstatic joy of surviving a disaster.

Dan Yu's red lips parted slightly, her golden eyes filled with disbelief and shock.

"It...it actually...hurt it?"

She looked at the tornado in the sky, temporarily thrown into turbulence, and then at Lu Mingfei, who was enveloped in an ominous yet powerful aura. She was deeply shocked. The changes that had occurred to this blue dog were completely beyond her comprehension.

Only Mo Zhen narrowed his eyes slightly. In his [Artist's Eyes], which were enhanced by the power of Mewtwo, data streams flickered wildly. He was not as optimistic as Xiao Mengzi.

The King of the Sky and the Wind is not so easily defeated.
Sure enough, just as Xiaomengzi's squeals and Danyu's exclamations had faded, a destructive aura, ten or even nine times more terrifying than before, suddenly awakened in the center of the turbulent flow!

"You lowly ant...you...have utterly enraged me!"

The tornado's voice no longer carried any mockery or surprise, only an icy killing intent!
The clouds above Feiyun City began to swirl and converge wildly, centered on the Tianjian Bridge!

A massive eye of the typhoon, several kilometers in diameter, is forming, and the sky has darkened completely, as if the end of the world has arrived!

[Domain Expansion - Boundless Wind]!!!
The moment the words fell, a massive, visible barrier suddenly expanded from the center of the tornado cloud, instantly covering the entire Sky Arrow Bridge and a large area of ​​the surrounding airspace and sea!
Within the barrier, all the wind transformed into an extension of the tornado's will, the air became as viscous as lead and mercury, and every wisp of breeze turned into the sharpest blade!
The powerful force of the laws suppressed all non-wind attribute beings within the barrier!
The Sky Arrow Bridge let out its final lament and began to crumble inch by inch. The seawater was lifted by an invisible force, forming a waterspout that connected the sky and the sea!
The true realm of the gods has descended here!

United States, Meteorological Agency.

On the huge holographic screen, the curve representing the weather data suddenly soared into a terrifying, almost vertical peak, and the piercing alarm instantly shattered the tranquility of the command center.

The staff were in a state of chaos. The chief observer adjusted his glasses, which had slipped down to the tip of his nose, and pointed to an energy vortex on the screen that was spinning wildly in the coastal area of ​​Feiyun City, his voice trembling.

"Report! Abnormal weather activity detected near Tianjian Bridge! The hurricane intensity has exceeded the observation limit! This...this is not natural weather at all, it's a space storm triggered by some kind of bioenergy!"

The alliance hotline was almost overwhelmed with calls, and emergency evacuation alarms were sounded in Feiyun City, with piercing sirens echoing between the skyscrapers.

Meanwhile, the streets of Feiyun City were already in complete chaos.

The citizens looked up in horror and saw a huge vortex connecting the sea and sky slowly taking shape on the distant horizon. At the center of the vortex, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and countless visible wind blades, like the scythe of death, shattered the sky.

Even more chilling was the sight of a gigantic, humanoid shadow vaguely visible within the vortex, like a god who commands the storm, indifferently overlooking the city on the verge of destruction.

Is this the end of the world?!

"It is the wrath of the legendary elves!"

"Mom, I'm afraid..."

Cries, screams, and prayers mingled together as people fled in panic, and vehicles blocked the streets—a scene reminiscent of the apocalypse.

On the edge of the chaotic crowd, Yati, an artistic young man dressed in a green knit sweater, stood against the flow of people.

His nanny bug stood quietly by his side like the most loyal guard, its sharp, sickle-like arms reflecting the eerie light of the sky.

Unlike the others, Yati did not panic. He quickly set up his easel, frantically dipping his brush into paint on the palette, and rapidly sketched the apocalyptic scene on the canvas—a distorted storm, a torn sky, and a blurry yet oppressive giant figure at the center of the storm.

His eyes were fervent and focused, and his brushstrokes trembled with excitement.

"How magnificent! How beautiful! This is the aesthetics of destruction, and it will surely be the pinnacle of my artistic career. I will name it 'The Prelude to Ragnarok'!"

Meanwhile, in the intricate underground sewer system of Feiyun City, a manhole cover was quietly pushed open.

Alice, a dark-skinned girl, nimbly peeked out.

Her dragon-headed groundhog followed closely behind, its sharp, drill-like claws digging deep into the concrete. It let out a low, battle-ready roar at the terrifying energy source in the sky, and the ground energy around it fluctuated, causing the ground beneath its feet to tremble slightly.

Alice narrowed her eyes, her extraordinary perception penetrating the raging wind elements, and she could vaguely see several energy entities colliding fiercely at the center of the storm.

"Wow, these guys are really something, fighting."

Alice patted her restless companions on the shoulder, her tone tinged with a mixture of helplessness and teasing.

"But Excadrill, forget it, that's Flying-type Pokémon's territory up there. If a Ground-type runs over there, wouldn't you just be a sitting duck?"

The dragon-headed groundhog scratched the ground unwillingly, but finally let out a muffled groan and withdrew its fighting spirit.

Blueberry Academy at the other end of the Unova region.

The atmosphere in the principal's office was as heavy as the stillness before a storm.

Principal Angers Schilan, with his dark skin as thick as an iron tower, stood before the enormous floor-to-ceiling window.

The alchemical folding knife in his hand, which had been bathed in countless dragon bloods, was now trembling violently, almost like a mournful cry. The dark red patterns on the blade pulsated like veins, pointing towards Flying Cloud City.

He slowly turned around, his deep-set eyes burning with a sharp light like that of a young dragon slayer, as he swept over the two elites standing solemnly in the office.

One was a Black girl named Nari, dressed in a crisp blue executive department uniform, wearing white-rimmed glasses, and exuding a calm and capable demeanor.

The other is a young man with fiery red hair, eyes like burning amber, and an aura of untamed spirit—Akamatsu.

They are the most outstanding new generation of dragon-slaying talents in the Blueberry Academy Executive Department, bearing noble bloodlines and being the sharp sword that the Secret Party places high hopes on.

“Young dragon slayers, you have seen the weather station's warning. It’s not just ordinary abnormal weather… According to ancient records and energy fluctuation analysis, what has appeared in Feiyun City this time is the long-dormant King of the Sky and Wind—Tornado Cloud Odin!”

With a clang, the folding knife in his hand was drawn half an inch from its sheath, its fierce, cold light reflecting off his hardened face.

"This is an ancient being capable of triggering Ragnarok, a terrifying enemy that transcends ordinary legends. We know very little about it, but the only certainty is that its appearance means destruction. For this mission, I need you to go with the resolve to die!"

Nari pushed up her glasses, revealing a sharp, unwavering gaze behind the lenses.

"Understood, Principal. The first rule of the Executive Department is: when it comes to slaying dragons, life or death is irrelevant."

Chishong grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth. His smile was wild and unrestrained, and a cluster of faint yet condensed sparks danced on his fingertips.

"Don't worry, Principal. Who cares about the King of the Sky or the King of the Wind? As long as it's a dragon, it can't run wild on our Blueberry Academy's territory!"

Angers looked intently at his two young subordinates, his gaze complex, a mixture of pride and an indescribable heaviness.

He slowly sheathed his folding knife, walked to the wall, and traced the location of the Unova region on an ancient world map with his finger, finally stopping at Flying Cloud City, thinking to himself.

This place is too far from Feiyun City... It's too far to help someone in a nearby crisis. We can't count on Du Ruo, that good-for-nothing. We can only hope that Zi Yu can stall for time a little longer...
