I haven't decided on a name for my Pokémon trainer yet.

Ye Feng felt a little heavy-hearted. He nodded silently and followed Meng Huan toward the shrine where the seal was located.

Chapter 291 The Destroyed Seal, the Super Demon God? Appears

Ye Feng and Meng Huan arrived at the ancestral hall that the old man had mentioned.

Calling it an ancestral hall is an understatement; ruins are not even a proper description. Due to the explosion, only broken bricks and pieces of wood remain.

Ye Feng was certain that this was a temple because there was a statue standing there that happened to be the image of the ring on Arceus's body.

There is a huge crater in front of the statue, and you can barely see the destroyed steps below.

"It seems the seal is down here." Ye Feng stood at the edge of the pit, carefully peering down, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything.

Dream nodded, said "Let's go down and take a look," and flew down first.

Ye Feng released his mental power, lifting himself up to follow—Ye Feng's current mental strength was enough to support him in some simple ground-hugging movements, and going down into a pit was no problem.

The Mew flying in front was radiating light, probably from the Flash move.

After descending for a short time, we came to a fairly large cavern, where the scene was laid out before us under the flashing light.

This appears to have been carved out by hand; the cave walls are smooth and there are some pictures engraved on them, but the details are no longer discernible due to the explosion.

Ye Feng landed on the ground and looked at a destroyed altar-like structure in the center of the hollow.

Is that so...

Arriving at the altar, Ye Feng scanned the area... He couldn't see anything; the place was completely destroyed.

“There’s nothing there…” Ye Feng said.

After pondering for a while, Dream gestured with her little hands in the air, and finally shook her head: "There is still some of Arceus's power remaining here. The seal was originally here, but it seems to have been destroyed. Hoopa is nowhere to be found."

"As expected..." Ye Feng murmured. He already knew the result, so he didn't have much of an emotional reaction.

"Woo~~~~" Latios and Latias were flying around in the void when they suddenly huddled together and cried out towards a corner.

"What's wrong?" Ye Feng and Meng Huan looked over in confusion.

Latios flew over and pushed Ye Feng to a corner.

"There's nothing here...?" Ye Feng looked around in confusion, but couldn't see anything except walls.

"Woo~~~" Latias cried out towards the wall.

Ye Feng looked at it with suspicion, then reached out and touched the wall, finding it icy cold...

"Mew?" Ye Feng couldn't tell, but Latios and Latias did seem to have discovered something, so they looked at Mew.

Dream tilted its head, peered at the wall for a while, and its eyes lit up: "It seems like there's an alternate dimension here."

"An alternate dimension?" Ye Feng was full of questions. "A secret realm?"

“Somewhat similar.” Mew spun around. “It must have been forcibly created by some Pokémon. It won’t last long and is already on the verge of destruction.”

"Is it going to be destroyed?" Ye Feng was startled. Although he was a little doubtful about how long the dream was talking about it not lasting too long, what was happening here must have been going on for some time.

But what will happen to the elves inside if this alternate dimension is destroyed? Aren't they doomed?

They hurriedly asked what to do about the fantasy.

Dream scratched her head, looking a little troubled: "I don't know either."

"Didn't you say you could freely enter and exit the secret realm? You said it yourself." Ye Feng asked in confusion.

Mew has the ability to freely enter and exit any secret realm, which is why it was able to run in and extort (not really) compensation after Xerneas sealed the entrance to the secret realm.

“This is different. It’s a secret realm-like space created by the elves themselves. I can’t enter without the space’s owner’s permission.” Mew shook his head.

"?" Ye Feng slowly typed out a question mark.

"The secret realms you know of were all created by divine beasts for elves to survive, right?" Dream asked.

Ye Feng nodded.

"Actually, this kind of secret realm is partly due to the power of the World Tree. Otherwise, the power of the elves alone could not create such a large alternate dimension, nor could it last for thousands of years," Dream explained. "There is another secret here, which I shouldn't tell you, but since you will become the guardian of the World Tree in the future, it's okay to tell you."

"The fusion of the secret realm and reality is actually a phenomenon of returning power to the World Tree. As more and more secret realms return to reality, the power of the World Tree will gradually increase, and my power will also become stronger. It is always power that has been lent out, and it still has to be returned."

"I see." Ye Feng suddenly realized, not expecting there to be such a secret inside.

The Dream even said that, so it seems to trust me a lot? Is it so sure that I can pass the trial and become the guardian of the World Tree?

"What about this? Aren't the elves inside doomed?" This matter is more important right now.

"Uh... there's nothing I can do." Dream spread her hands.

"What? The elves inside..." Ye Feng became even more anxious. If even Dream couldn't do anything about it, he was even more helpless.

"Why are you in such a hurry? What if it's an evil elf that's in cahoots with that shadow elf?" Dream asked.

"This..." Ye Feng was stunned. He hadn't thought of this question, but when he heard that the elf was in danger, he subconsciously became anxious.

Just as Ye Feng and Meng Huan were having a headache, a soft chime suddenly rang out, and a light shone on Ye Feng's chest.

"What's wrong?" Ye Feng was startled. The mysterious ring suddenly flew out on its own and was circling in the air.

"This is... Hoopa's scooping ring?" Dream was taken aback.

The ring spun rapidly in the air, its afterimage transforming into a golden sphere. Suddenly, with a soft sound, the ring abruptly stopped, and a layer of colorful light quickly covered the center of the ring.

The spirits inside are about to come out.

Ye Feng and Mew exchanged a glance and cautiously retreated. Latios and Latias quickly hid behind Ye Feng—they were still recovering from serious injuries and their combat strength was relatively weak.

Ye Feng released Gardevoir and Gengar, while simultaneously gripping the Key Stone in his pocket, ready to Mega Evolve at any moment.

"Waaah, Hoopa is finally out!" Just as they were on high alert, a voice suddenly rang out.

The voice has a distinct high pitch, a mellow and transparent tone, and a unique nasal quality.

"..." Ye Feng was stunned. Why was this voice so distinctive? It sounded like some strange DNA was starting to move.

A pink braid peeked out from the light membrane first, followed by a gray round face with curved horns on the sides of the round head.

Ye Feng shouted as the elf passed through the ring.

"I'll boil it! Huba!"

Chapter 292 Where Did the Shadow Elf Come From?

Ye Feng was startled, quickly pulled out his Key Stone, and shouted, "Gardedor, m..."

"Wait!" Meng Huan quickly stopped Ye Feng.

"What are we waiting for? That's Huba!" Ye Feng said anxiously.

What's wrong with you, Dream? That's Hoopa! Even if you don't know Hoopa, it itself exclaimed, "Hoopa is finally out!"

What's Hoopa's strength? Even with Gardevoir's Mega Evolution and Gengar combined, there's a 99.99999% chance they couldn't beat it!

The remaining 0.0000...10% is only possible if Hoopa is like Yveltal, whose power is at its absolute lowest point.

But what if it randomly summons a legendary spirit? That would be disastrous.

“Look closely, is that Hoopa?” Mew asked, pointing at the Pokémon.

Ye Feng paused, then looked over—pink braids, a round gray face, two curved horns on either side of her head with two golden rings hanging from them, and a pink V-shaped pattern on her stomach. Two short arms, detached from her body and floating in the air, with no lower limbs, only a small gray tail.

It looks exactly like a Hoopa!

"It's Hoopa!" Ye Feng shouted, then suddenly realized, "Wait..."

Ye Feng looked at it carefully for a few moments, then fell silent.

"Are you sure it's Hoopa?" Mew asked again, looking at the Pokémon that was timidly looking in their direction, its mind full of doubt.

In its memory, Hoopa didn't look like this at all.

"What's wrong with Hoopa?" Little Hoopa asked in a low voice, looking frightened.

It finally managed to escape from the nearly destroyed alternate dimension, only to be startled by the human staring at it and yelling. Thinking it had done something wrong, it quickly hid behind the ring.

"Is that really Hoopa?" Mew exclaimed in surprise, its eyes widening. But Hoopa wasn't very big, was it? Was it a giant Pokémon? How did it become so small? It even looked adorably clumsy.

“It is indeed Hoopa… but in a form that has lost its power,” Ye Feng said.

He was also anxious. He had previously guessed that Hoopa in this world had fallen into a state of being controlled by evil forces. Although he saw little Hoopa now, his mind didn't quite process it, and his first reaction was that something bad was going to happen.

"A form without power?" Mew floated over curiously, circled around Hoopa a few times under its frightened gaze, and nodded. "Indeed, its power is very weak, completely unworthy of the title of Super Demon God."

"Are you... Dream?" Hoopa asked softly, looking at the somewhat familiar pink kitten in front of her.

That unique tone made Ye Feng's heart tremble.

"I am... are you really Hoopa?" Dream was still a little skeptical.

“Yes, Hoopa is Hoopa.” Hoopa nodded, then couldn’t help glancing at Ye Feng again. This human seemed quite afraid of her? But Hoopa had no power now, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

"Sorry, Hoopa, I was in a hurry." Ye Feng knew very well that in her little Hoopa form, apart from being a bit mischievous, she was actually a kind-hearted Pokémon.

"It's okay... Hoopa did a lot of bad things in the past, so it's alright..." Little Hoopa said sadly.

"Uh..." Ye Feng was taken aback, "You..."
