Elf: Starting as the Fighting Gym Master, and being entangled by Nancy.

Chapter 470 Rayquaza: Came looking for trouble? You can make me super evolve? Then forget it!

Li Xuan, Little Riolu, and Rayquaza: "..."

What the hell is this watch?!
"Your friend even has a watch?"

Li Xuan raised his eyebrows.

"I'll ask you again."

Kyurem glanced disdainfully at the sky above.

It's just a flying dragon that's four times weak to ice-type attacks.

Watch me freeze you to death with my Ice World technique!

They seemed to have sensed the disrespect shown below.

The majestic voice from above grew increasingly angry.

Almost the next moment.

Countless dazzling shooting stars suddenly appeared on the dome of the Sky Pillar.

These meteorites, imbued with dragon-type energy and trailing brilliant flames, hurtled toward Kyurem like divine punishment, turning the entire sky into a magnificent yet dangerous golden-red!
A hint of disdain flashed in Kyurem's empty, lifeless dark golden eyes. It suddenly shattered the rock beneath its feet, and an extremely cold aura spread out like ripples.

Countless sharp icicles burst forth from the ground in response, heading towards the falling meteor!

A frozen world of ice!
Boom! ! !
The giant ice crystal pillar and the fiery meteor collided in the air with a deafening explosion, and both dissipated almost simultaneously, leaving only melting water droplets to fall.

In an instant, the clouds tore apart, and the emerald green figure pierced the sky.

A giant dragon appeared.

Its slender body gleamed like jade in the moonlight, its golden dragon eyes locked onto Kyurem below, and the surging air around it swirled the remaining clouds into a spiral.

[Pokémon: Rayquaza (Legendary Pokémon)]

[Attributes: dragon, flying]

【grade:? ? ? 】

【Feature: Airlock】

[Movements: Meteor Shower, Dragon Dance, Godspeed... others omitted.]

They have many moves, but they just can't add the finishing touch.

In other words.

Rayquaza is not yet capable of Mega Evolution.

And it's green, not the black Rayquaza that fought 1v7 in the Hoopa movie.

For a moment, Li Xuan also felt that it was just like that.

Liekongzuo: ? ? ?

"Human, it seems you're somewhat displeased with my arrival."

Liekongzuo directly used telepathy to send a sarcastic remark to Li Xuan.

"No, it's just that it's quite different from what I expected."

Li Xuan stroked his chin, gazing intently at the Fierce Sky Throne high in the sky.

While this shade of turquoise is indeed elegant, if it were replaced with black ink, it would surely exude even greater power.

Just as he was pondering, Liekongzuo had already withdrawn his aura and landed on top of the Sky Pillar.

Those gilded dragon eyes turned slightly, meeting Li Xuan's gaze as he stood on the platform.

Lie Kong narrowed his dragon eyes and sensed the situation mentally:
"Bearing the aura of two legendary Pokémon from elsewhere..."

Its tail tip lightly struck the altar rock, producing a crisp sound like metal clashing against stone. "Under normal circumstances, I would have banished you from the Pillar of Heaven long ago."

As he spoke, the dragon's might pressed down on Reshiram inside the Poké Ball and Kyurem standing outside, clearly indicating its displeasure at these two foreign deities trespassing into its airspace.

Liekong sat cross-legged on the altar pillar, the scene from that time flashing through his mind.

When Kyurem descended through the atmosphere, it had already offended its majesty. Now, human trainers dare to bring these outsiders to trespass into the Sanctuary, which is the greatest disrespect to the Lord of the Sky!

Kyurem's tattered ice wings suddenly unfolded, and a cold snort mixed with ice shards emanated from his nostrils.

"A mere pillar-guarding insect dares to presume to call itself the Lord of the Heavens? Has it become arrogant after being worshipped as a god by humans?"

"Insolence!" Rayquaza slammed its tail fin against the rock pillar, sending countless rocks crashing down. "You homeless dragons, how dare you bark in the ozone layer's shelter?"

"A dragon without a home?" Kyurem's throat gathered an icy blue light. "Let's see who can freeze this broken pillar!"

"Mio!" (Oh no! How could I forget about this!)
Little Riolu was enveloped in a rainbow-colored halo, and in the blink of an eye, it transformed into a dreamlike creature, hovering lightly between the two giant dragons.

Its pink tail trembled slightly, emitting a gentle spiritual fluctuation, attempting to halt the battle between the two dragons.

"Stop fighting!"

Before the words were even finished, Kyurem's "Frozen World" collided violently with Rayquaza's "Stone Attack".

Extremely cold ice crystals and sharp stone blades clashed fiercely above the altar, and the burst of energy turbulence completely drowned out the dreamlike attempts to mediate.

"Li Xuan, stop them!"

Dreamy anxiously delivered the message, her pink body dodging left and right amidst the turbulent energy currents.

But then Li Xuan pulled out half a chilled watermelon from somewhere, sat cross-legged on the edge of the altar, and was eating it with relish, making a muffled comment: "Speaking of which, do all Pokémon these days secretly take a Stone Edge training course? How come every Pokémon can use Stone Edge?"

Talk about it.

Since I started playing against others, I've seen the Stone Attack appear so many times, but I think I can count the number of times it actually hits on one hand.

There's a Rock-type move in the move pool that's powerful, but it's prone to missing due to various factors.
Dream froze in mid-air, then said irritably, "Hey, don't come at a time like this to complain!"

Li Xuan leisurely scooped up a spoonful of chilled watermelon and said to the anxious Mewtwo, "Legend has it that when Pokémon fight, it can take three days and three nights to determine a winner. Why don't we let them expend some energy first, and they'll naturally calm down once they've had their fill of fighting?"

"Also, I'd better not get involved in this battle as a human. What if something goes wrong? The hospital bills could amount to hundreds or thousands of meals of all-you-can-eat barbecue."

"!!!"

After listening, Meng Huan suddenly realized that what Li Xuan said made a lot of sense.

Why not sit down and watch their fight scene slowly, and talk to them after they've had their fill of fighting?

"By the way, why did you bring me here, Dream?"

"I was thinking of letting you try to get Rayquaza to Mega Evolve, but these two are fighting now, and it's definitely not going to be resolved anytime soon. Let's wait until it's over before we talk about it."

This whole thing was a case of good intentions gone wrong.

But it seems it has truly forgotten that Rayquaza and Kyurem have a slight grudge against each other.

Go ahead and fight, everything will be fine once it's over.

"really."

Li Xuan nodded slightly, and then watched the battle between the two dragons begin.

"Dream, who do you think will win between Kyurem and Rayquaza?"

"It's hard to say, but Rayquaza's attributes are too disadvantageous. Rayquaza and Kyurem are about 40/60."

"Yeah, pretty much what I thought."

The two chatted, ate melon seeds, and quietly watched the battle.

A chilling aura enveloped the pillar of the sky, and glistening frost spread rapidly along the ancient stone steps.

Rayquaza's body was covered with a thick layer of ice, and with each circling and vibration, countless ice shards would break off, making its flight movements noticeably heavier and slower.

Kyurem's situation is equally dire.

Under Rayquaza's relentless onslaught, deep burn marks were left on its hard carapace, cracks appeared in the ice crystals on its left wing, and the light in its dark golden pupils dimmed slightly.

The two sides fought back and forth.

Li Xuan couldn't discern any combat techniques, only a simple accumulation of stats. He munched on watermelon, offering a vague comment: "Rayquaza's combat awareness is far too naive. Did he learn Dragon Dance for nothing? He could have avoided the Frozen World three times with acceleration, yet he stubbornly insisted on using Dragon Claws to fight head-on..."

Rayquaza, who was struggling to prepare his dragon claw, suddenly froze, his forehead instantly clouded with anger, and even the force with which he slapped the ice pillar with his tail was clearly filled with embarrassment and rage.

After taking pictures of the icicles.

Rayquaza turned and unleashed a breath of icy dragonfire at Li Xuan: "Arrogant human! If you're so capable, why don't you take charge of this battle!"

“You’re not my Pokémon,” Li Xuan said slowly, putting down the watermelon. “Why should I bother guiding you?”

Lie Kongzuo was speechless. The dragon breath that had gathered in his throat slowly dissipated, and his dragon eyes contracted violently. For a long time, he was unable to organize any words of rebuttal.

Li Xuan patted his clothes and stood up: "Since you insist on seeing my command, then I will guide Kyurem to fight. That should prove my strength, right?"

"???"

Rayquaza's body trembled violently as he roared, "Human brat, what kind of logic is this?!"

"Hahaha! Good, good! Brave warriors who fill the void, let's show this stray pillar-guarding worm our power!"

Kyurem burst into maniacal laughter, its ice wings drawing a cold, gleaming arc in the air, clearly just what it wanted.

Li Xuan raised his hand and softly commanded, "Kyurem, show your true form!"

"learn!"

As Kyurem radiates light, steam swirls around its body, causing it to rapidly transform.

The instant the Flame White Kyurem spread its turbine wings, Li Xuan's command arrived through the air: "Blizzard!"

Buzz!

The turbo engine roared to life, and a gust of wind carrying extremely cold ice crystals gushed out in a fan shape.

The scattered snowflakes instantly transformed into an ice storm sweeping across the sky, turning the entire airspace into a desolate winter landscape!

The alarm bells in Lie Kong's heart rang loudly.

The aura that Kyurem released during the period immediately after his transformation was both familiar and unfamiliar.

This made Rayquaza somewhat nostalgic for his past power.

If I hadn't lost too much of my own essence, I would have used that power to explode against you on the spot!

But right now, Rayquaza can't worry about that.

Kyurem's Blizzard attack is clearly more penetrating than before.

Liekongzuo had no choice but to hastily unleash the Great Fireball, a massive fireball that transformed into a blazing "大" character, its power overwhelming.

However, it was suppressed by the biting cold the moment it came into contact with the blizzard.

The special attack reduction caused by the Meteor Shower was now fully exposed. The golden and red flames were retreating steadily amidst the ice crystals, and even the core "big" structure began to collapse.

Huhuhu~
As the blizzard swept through, Rayquaza was ultimately no match for the enhanced power of the extreme cold, and its massive body plummeted toward the pillar of the sky.

But legend has it that Pokémon's dignity allows it to maintain its composure even when falling, making it seem more like it's falling into the water freely rather than being knocked down.

Li Xuan raised his hand to stop the Flame White Kyurem from giving chase, and slowly walked to Rayquaza, who had fallen to the ground.

He stared at the slightly dim scales on Lie Kongzuo's body and frowned slightly: "Why is the primordial energy in your body so thin? It's as if... there are many gaps, and you are completely unable to exert your strongest power."

"Absurd!" Lie Kong raised his head, whether truly convinced by Li Xuan's words or for some other reason, and roared angrily, "I have guarded the ozone layer for thousands of years and have never—"

"I have a solution."

Li Xuan uttered four words softly.

"Human, you know, I have always trusted you."

Dream, Kyurem: "..."

Liekong, I still prefer your unruly self from just now.

Rayquaza's posture just now elicited a dull chuckle from Kyurem, his ice-crystal-covered dragon wings spreading arrogantly, his throat rolling with undisguised sarcasm: "Thousands of years have taught you to wag your tail and beg for mercy."

"Get lost! If it weren't for you, would so much of my original essence have disappeared?"

Rayquaza's dragon teeth gnashed together, its vertical pupils fixed on Kyurem beside it.

If it hadn't suffered damage to its origin from the fierce battle with this alien ice dragon back then, why would it need to spend its days traversing the atmosphere searching for meteorites to replenish its energy?

Even after absorbing cosmic particles for thousands of years, the recovery efficiency has never been satisfactory.

His current power is only 70% of his peak strength, which makes the Sky Overlord anxious.

In response, Lie Kongzuo eagerly leaned down and asked, "What method are you talking about?"

Li Xuan lightly tapped the west with his fingertip, recalling some things Daigo had talked about with him, and replied, "There is a meteorite at the top of Mt. Chimney, whose energy purity is the highest among the Hoenn. If you can absorb it, the problem of your source energy deficiency may be solved."

A blazing light suddenly burst forth from the dragon eyes of the Sky-Sitting Dragon.

It remembered that it had once smashed a giant meteorite that was falling toward the Hoenn region, but at the time it did not dare to land and collect it due to various considerations.

Looking back now, I realize that my unintentional actions in recent years have become the key to restoring my strength.

"So, human, you're going to retrieve the meteorite in my place?"

Aren't you coming with me?

"?"

"?"

Li Xuan and Lie Kong both had question marks on their faces at the same time.

So you're trying to freeload?

"Could you do me this small favor to go all the way?"

"Then let me ask you, what are those dragon claws for? Are you just using them when you're eating?"

Li Xuan rolled his eyes and said irritably.

"Even when you're being sarcastic, you can still unleash a dragon claw attack."

Liekongzuo seems to have become a comedian, with every sentence a classic quote.

Li Xuan couldn't hold back and waved his hand: "This is Sky Pillar. Do you know how long it takes to get to Mt. Chimney? The tolls here are very expensive. If it were in the human world, it would be enough for a Mythical Pokémon to do a lot of things."

"Are prices so high in your human world?"

Lie Kongzuo raised an eyebrow, clearly unable to believe what Li Xuan was saying.

How rare are Mythical Pokémon?
Although some mythical Pokémon are not very strong, their abilities are still very powerful.

The cost of a single transaction would certainly be astronomical.

But even such an astronomical figure is less than the travel expenses?
"That's right, you can ask it if you don't believe me."

Li Xuan grabbed the Dream and placed it in front of Lie Kong.

At the same time, he said to Dream, "Dream, the cost of this flight is enough for more than a dozen all-you-can-eat barbecue meals. How many times can I ask you to help out?"

"three times!"

Dream answered without hesitation.

Lie Kongzuo raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

Are prices in the human world so high that Dream has to intervene three times?!
You have to understand, even back then, it would have been very difficult for me to get Dream to help me...

It seems the humans before me weren't lying to me.

But what should it exchange for?

Lie Kongzuo fell into deep thought, unsure how to get Li Xuan to help him.

Li Xuan thought for a moment, then spoke...
