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

"How's it going with Hupa?" Ye Feng asked.

"Same as always, I can only catch a shadow," Dream replied irritably.

Ye Feng scratched his head, sighed, and crawled into his sleeping bag. After a busy day, he fell asleep almost as soon as he closed his eyes.

···

Tomorrow will be another tough day.

Chapter 366 Darkrai

On the boundless grassland, Ye Feng rode his speeding scooter, the Speed ​​Dog, galloping against the wind.

The wind blowing through his hair brought a refreshing breeze, and the scent of grass filled the air. Ye Feng felt all the fatigue of the past few days vanish.

Just as Ye Feng was enjoying his leisurely time, the sky suddenly darkened.

Ye Feng looked up in confusion and was shocked to find that the sun, which had been hanging in the sky, had somehow turned into a pitch-black sphere... No, it didn't seem to be a sphere; it had sharp, spiky protrusions on its edges.

"What, it looks a bit like Darkrai's dress?" Ye Feng muttered.

Before Ye Feng could think further, the black sun began to grow rapidly—no, it began to fall towards Ye Feng!

"I boil it!"

Ye Feng shouted and suddenly opened his eyes, sitting up abruptly. He felt himself up and down with lingering fear, and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that he hadn't been flattened.

"Oh, it was just a dream. What kind of dream was it? Why was it so strange?" Ye Feng rubbed his eyes in confusion and wiped away the dirt from the corners of his eyes.

Huh? Ye Feng was taken aback. Out of the corner of his eye, he seemed to see something dark. He turned his head and saw that it was Darkrai staring straight at him.

"Good morning, Darkrai." Ye Feng raised his hand and greeted him somewhat stiffly.

What's going on? You're so quiet, like a ghost. You're going to scare people to death, you know?

Darkrai nodded slightly.

Since what happened last time, Darkrai has been living at the World Tree.

However, it seemed rather sociable, and it was almost never seen. If Ye Feng hadn't heard about it from other Pokémon, he would have thought that Darkrai had already left.

Today is the first time I've seen Darkrai since that.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Ye Feng stretched and then got up to tidy his sleeping bag.

Darkrai continued to stare at Ye Feng without saying a word (telepathy).

"?" Ye Feng asked, puzzled. "Are you hungry? Should I ask Gengar to get you some Energy Cubes?"

Darkrai seemed genuinely hungry, showing some interest upon hearing about the Power Cube, but immediately shook his head.

"Are you thirsty?" Ye Feng asked.

Darkrai continued to shake his head.

what happened?

Ye Feng was a little confused. Darkrai, who was usually nowhere to be seen, suddenly appeared in front of him today and stared at him without saying a word. To be honest, it was a little creepy.

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

Darkrai stared at Ye Feng, and Ye Feng sensed that it seemed to have something to say.

"You can't use telepathy?" Ye Feng guessed.

Darkrai did not respond.

Could it be that he really doesn't have telepathy? Ye Feng felt that he had guessed correctly, but that was fine. He could read the elves' thoughts by relying on the resonance of their mental power.

Thinking this, Ye Feng stretched out a wisp of his psychic power towards Darkrai.

"Don't... touch me." Suddenly, a slightly deep voice rang in Ye Feng's mind, startling him.

"So you can read minds." Ye Feng patted his slightly startled heart.

Sensing that Klay's voice sounded a little unhappy, Ye Feng quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."

“Touch me or you’ll be haunted by nightmares,” Darkrai said.

"Huh?" Ye Feng was taken aback.

“Nightmare,” Darkrai uttered.

Nightmare? Isn't that a unique characteristic of Darkrai? What does that mean? Touching it will plunge you into a nightmare?

Ye Feng understood after a moment's thought. He suddenly realized something: "Then my dream just now... was it because of you?"

“I didn’t mean to, it’s just that you seemed to be dreaming about something very happy, and I couldn’t help but want to see, so… I’m sorry,” Darkrai said.

"Uh, it's nothing." Ye Feng scratched his head. Although his dream had been ruined by someone inexplicably barging in, Darkrai had already apologized, so he decided to let it go.

The main problem is that we can't beat it...

After packing his sleeping bag, Ye Feng washed his face and brushed his teeth, then ate breakfast and fed the Pokémon.

The elves seemed very curious about Darkrai, secretly observing it while they ate.

Darkrai didn't react much, remaining quietly standing there.

"Um, if there's nothing else, I'll go train now..." Ye Feng pointed outside.

“I want to help you,” Darkrai suddenly said.

"Help me?" Ye Feng was taken aback.

"You saved me, and I haven't repaid you yet."

"This...it's not a big deal." Ye Feng smiled.

Darkrai remained silent, simply staring at Ye Feng.

Ye Feng couldn't take it anymore and had no choice but to raise his hands in surrender: "Okay, okay, how do you plan to help me?"

"Your Pokémon's strength has stagnated for a long time, hasn't it?" Darkrai glanced at Ye Feng's Pokémon.

Ye Feng nodded. This was also something that had been troubling him recently. His Pokémon seemed to be stuck at a bottleneck. No matter how they battled the three legendary Pokémon, they couldn't make any further progress. The only improvement they could get was in their battle experience.

"Do you have a way?" Ye Feng looked at Darkrai with a hint of expectation.

Darkrai paused for a moment, then said, "We can give it a try."

"Really?" Ye Feng was a little skeptical. Even the three more powerful Titans couldn't do anything and could only keep fighting. What could Darkrai possibly do?

But who knows? After all, while the three Titans are powerful, they don't seem very smart.

“Your Pokémon… have reached a point where there’s no room for improvement in physical strength, but I can sense that their spiritual power is still very weak.” Darkrai seemed to be not very good at communicating, and his voice was halting.

Ye Feng initially thought it was a problem with the telepathic signal.

“Apart from them.” Darkrai pointed to Gengar and Gardevoir.

Gengar and Gardevoir exchanged a glance instinctively.

"Mental power?" Ye Feng was taken aback.

After hearing what Darkrai said, Ye Feng realized that he hadn't paid much attention to mental strength in his training of Pokémon.

"But it's not a Psychic-type Pokémon, is it necessary to train its mental strength?" Ye Feng asked doubtfully.

Gardevoir is a Psychic-type Pokémon, so it's normal for it to have strong mental abilities; Gengar is a Master-level Pokémon, so its mental abilities shouldn't be too weak either.

“Perhaps not, but this is a direction,” Darkrai said.

Ye Feng stroked his chin and pondered for a while before nodding: "What you said seems to make some sense."

Since there's no room for improvement in physical exercise, why not try a different approach? Maybe that will be more effective.

Even if not, strengthening one's mental power should help with energy control, so it's definitely not a loss.

"Alright, I'll go talk to the three Divine Pillars and ask them to suspend the training sessions for a while," Ye Feng said.

Darkrai nodded.

Ye Feng explained the suspension of training to the three divine pillars, and they readily agreed.

Darkrai led Ye Feng to a dark cave.

"Where is this..." Ye Feng looked around the cave, feeling a bit eerie. Was there really such a place in the World Tree Secret Realm?

“I modified it specifically to suit me,” Darkrai explained.

"Oh..." Ye Feng nodded.

"Okay, so how should we train? Meditation?" Ye Feng asked.

Darkrai shook his head: "That's too inefficient, it takes too long. We'll use something faster."

"what?"

"Dream".

Chapter 367 Dream

A dream? Ye Feng's first reaction was, "I love killing in my dreams..."
