Let you make a game, what the hell is Pokemon?.

Chapter 285 Frogs, do they really eat mud ducks?
The feeling was like an invisible, towering mountain suddenly falling from the sky and crashing directly onto their shoulders.

Ling Feng felt his breath catch in his throat, and his bones creaked under the strain.

The body, which had been relatively relaxed, now felt as if it were carrying a thousand-pound burden, making it incredibly difficult to even lift a single finger.

This was not ordinary pressure, nor was it the suffocating aura emanating from the previous vortex.

This is a purer, more domineering force.

It came so suddenly, so directly, without any warning or buffer.

In that instant, the black mist at the core of the entire spirit realm stopped flowing.

The fog that was churning wildly suddenly trembled violently as if it had encountered a natural enemy, and then desperately retreated in all directions, as if trying to escape the range of this force.

Will's face turned deathly pale instantly, his knees buckled, and he almost collapsed to the ground. He gritted his teeth and used all his strength to barely keep himself from falling.

This feeling...

This is a force that no human being can withstand.

Even a champion Pokémon as powerful as his couldn't unleash such a despairing pressure; naturally, no one had ever witnessed such power before.

Marshado's expression also turned ugly. The gray protective shield on its body emitted a loud buzzing sound at this moment, and its light flickered as if it would shatter at any moment.

Its once large eyes now held only deep surprise.

This power...

It's definitely not something that sealed away could release!

Although the sealed creature was also very strong, its power was cold, evil, and had a corrosive quality.

But the force pressing down on them now is completely different.

It carries an ancient, weathered, and aloof majesty.

And most importantly, it also has a terrifying sense of power!
—It's better than before!
Ling Feng struggled to lift his head, wanting to see what had happened.

But all he could see was darkness.

The pressure was so immense that it even blurred his vision.

The most deadly thing was that this oppressive force didn't seem to intend to let them off so easily. It was constantly intensifying, like an invisible giant hand tightening its grip, trying to crush them completely.

The feeling of being locked on was very clear, as if something in the darkness had opened a pair of eyes and was coldly watching these three reckless intruders.

If this continues, they'll be crushed to death by the pressure before they even see what the vortex actually is.

At this critical moment, Marshall suddenly let out a low shout.

Suddenly, a ball of red flame shot up from its originally green body.

The flames didn't look fierce, nor did they have a scorching temperature, but they carried an extremely sacred and pure feeling.

As soon as this red flame appeared, it was like snow encountering a raging fire; the terrifying pressure that had been pressing down on them began to melt away at a visible speed.

Ling Feng felt a lightness on his shoulders, and the crushing weight instantly disappeared.

As the red flames burned, the gray protective shield around Marshadow stabilized again and expanded outwards, protecting Ling Feng and Will once more.

The raging black mist around them, illuminated by this red light, receded rapidly like the tide, and the suffocating oppressive feeling miraculously disappeared.

Ling Feng straightened up, stretched his stiff neck, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

This was the first time he had ever personally experienced this level of pressure in the real world.

When he was making games before, he often saw scenes of several legendary Pokémon in the CGs.

Although the pressure from the CG itself is quite realistic and stronger than that from the previous Blazing Flame, it still seems to fall short of the previous one.

It seems that if we want to upgrade the game modules in the future, we'll have to find a way to recreate this feeling. Although it's quite difficult, if we can do it, the game experience will definitely be elevated to several levels.

At the same time, the red flames on Marshall's body gradually died down, leaving only a faint halo around it.

It glanced back at Ling Feng and Will, its expression showing a hint of pain.

Although that attack lasted only a short time, it consumed a lot of energy.

That was the power that Phoenix King had specially reserved for it to save its life, and yet it used up most of it just to relieve the oppressive aura.

This is like cracking walnuts with gold bars, it's so damn extravagant.

It looked at Ling Feng with a hint of resentment in its eyes.

Ling Feng could tell what it was thinking just by looking at its expression, so he quickly waved his hand.

"Don't worry, since I've used your power, I definitely won't renege on my promise. Once this matter is resolved, I'll take care of helping Phoenix King restore his faith power."

Upon hearing this, Marshado's expression softened slightly.

It snorted and didn't reply.

Now that the crisis has been temporarily averted, it's time to get down to business.

Ling Feng turned to look at the black vortex that was still emitting a blood-red light in the distance, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes.

"Well, the situation is still not very clear right now. We're too far away, so we can only see the general outline."

"Since you seem alright, could we get a little closer?"

Will was stunned when he heard this.

He looked at Ling Feng in disbelief, as if he were looking at a madman.

This guy isn't from the spirit world, so he should logically avoid such a dangerous place.

The pressure he felt just now was so terrifying that even he, who had lived in the spirit world for many years, almost couldn't withstand it. Now that he had finally recovered, he was actually thinking of continuing to crawl inside.

What kind of mentality is this?
Will really couldn't understand what this young man was thinking.

From the moment they met until now, this guy's behavior has been completely beyond his comprehension.

He may look like just an ordinary trainer, but he cares more about this legendary forbidden area than the world lord himself.

Moreover, his calm and unhurried demeanor made it hard to believe that he was originally just a tourist.

Will felt a sense of confusion.

However, since Ling Feng had already said so, and Marshall seemed to have no objections, he couldn't say anything and could only bite the bullet and follow.

Marcia thought for a moment and decided that since the previous attack had cleared away the unstable factors in the surrounding area, getting a little closer shouldn't be a problem. She looked at the remaining red light on her body; this power should last a little longer, and she figured that maintaining the protective barrier and leading them inside to take a look shouldn't be too difficult.

"Okay, don't forget what you said!"

It nodded and turned to drift towards the vortex.

As they ventured deeper, the surrounding environment became increasingly worse.

If the thick, impenetrable black fog was just moments ago, now it was utter darkness.

There was no light left. Apart from the faint glow emanating from Marshall, it was pitch black all around, and they couldn't even feel the thick fog anymore. It was as if they had entered a void where there was absolutely no matter.

This darkness makes people feel extremely uncertain, as if they have been abandoned by the whole world.

However, Marshadow seemed to know the way, and it led the two through the darkness for an unknown amount of time. The oppressive feeling around them grew stronger and stronger until finally, they arrived at the center of this darkness.

This is no longer nothingness, but something real and tangible.

Ling Feng squinted, and with the help of the light emanating from Marcia, he finally saw the scene before him clearly.

Even though he was mentally prepared and felt that this place was definitely not an ordinary place, he still couldn't help but gasp when he actually saw what was in front of him.

It was an unimaginably huge magic circle.

The magic circle was inscribed on the ground—if it could still be called the ground—the lines were complex and intricate, radiating a dark red light, as if drawn with blood.

In the very center of the magic circle stood a huge coffin.

The coffin was ridiculously large, standing there like a small mountain. It was completely black, made of some unknown metal, and its surface was covered with all sorts of strange patterns and runes.

The runes flashed with a cold light from time to time, looking like some kind of living thing slowly wriggling.

What's most alarming is that the coffin was covered with chains and nails.

Each of those chains was as thick as a thigh, covered in rust and dark red stains, whether from iron rust or dried blood, it was hard to tell. They were like countless venomous snakes, tightly coiled around the coffin.

The nails were frighteningly long, each one more than a person's length, driven deep into the coffin, as if to nail the contents inside to this space forever.

Just looking at these things, Ling Feng could feel an ominous aura emanating from them.

The feeling wasn't just fear, but a deep-seated disgust.

What the hell is this thing?

Ling Feng frowned, his mind racing with calculations.

He had seen quite a few coffins in the game, but he had never seen one of this size before.

This isn't about imprisoning Pokémon, it's practically about imprisoning a demon king!

And this size is too big, could it really be a ghost dragon inside?

If it really is that guy, then this seal looks really terrible.

It's a divine beast, after all, and to be treated like this is incredibly disrespectful.

Will stood to the side, completely dumbfounded.

He stared wide-eyed at the enormous coffin before him, his mind completely blank.

He had heard rumors before that a terrifying being was sealed in the core of the spirit world, but rumors are just rumors, nothing is as shocking as seeing it with one's own eyes.

Is this the secret that the spirit world has been guarding all along?
Is this the seal that strikes fear into the hearts of countless people?
Just as the two were captivated by the scene before them, the black mist that had calmed down suddenly stirred again.

As if summoned by some force, the soul-devouring mist began to surge wildly towards the coffin. Instead of attacking the coffin, it flowed like water, directly into the interior of the coffin through the gaps in the nails and chains.

Before long, the originally pitch-black coffin was completely shrouded in a thick layer of black mist.

Ling Feng frowned even more as he watched this scene.

Something's not right here.

He had previously thought that the Soul-Devouring Mist was leaking from the contents of the coffin, or was a side effect of the unstable seal.

But now, it seems that the fog is actively trying to get into the coffin.

Will clearly noticed something was wrong. He stared blankly at the black mist that had seeped into the coffin, completely bewildered.

The Soul-Devouring Mist... isn't it caused by what's in this coffin?
Why is it flowing backwards?

Just as the two were filled with questions, the huge coffin suddenly trembled.

Boom!
A dull thud came from inside the coffin, like the beating of some enormous heart.

The sound wasn't loud, but it possessed an extremely terrifying penetrating power, causing Ling Feng and Will's eardrums to buzz.

Marshall, Will, and Ling Feng all paused, feeling the terrifying pressure that had just disappeared descend upon them once more.

Moreover, this time, the pressure was even more intense and violent than before, as if it had been provoked.

The red light on Marshall's body shattered instantly, like glass struck by a heavy hammer, exploding into countless red specks that dissipated into the air.

Without the protection of Phoenix King's power, that oppressive aura crashed down on them without reservation.

Marshado's expression changed drastically. It stared at the coffin in terror and let out a scream.

Even with Ho-Oh's protection, they were still discovered!

The thing inside the coffin had clearly sensed their presence!
Before the three of them could react, the huge coffin suddenly began to shake violently.

The chains that had been firmly fastened to the garment now emitted a sickening creaking sound.

Immediately afterwards, a huge black shadow burst out from the crack in the coffin.

The enormous black shadow moved with incredible speed, like a black lightning bolt, instantly piercing through the thick fog and appearing before them.

Ling Feng took a closer look, and his heart skipped a beat.

The shadowy figure looked extremely bizarre; it had a dragon-like body, but its body was covered with sharp spikes.

Its head has wing-like structures on both sides, and its blood-red eyes are filled with a savage and murderous aura.
In that instant, Ling Feng felt his entire body stiffen.

Holy crap, this...
This looks exactly like a Giratina!

So it really is him?!
