Pokémon: Hard work pays off, moves can be upgraded infinitely.

..............................

[Ding! A residual special ability has been detected nearby. Do you wish to activate the power of exploration to capture it?]

..............................

"Special powers?"

Mu Yun was taken aback, but quickly realized what was happening and immediately muttered in his mind:

"yes!"

In an instant, a black and white sphere, with a pale and dark glow like star rings, slowly floated out from the giant waveguide.

Soon, it flew over, overcoming numerous obstacles.

..............................

[Ding! Special Ability: Bloodline Divine Servant (Martial Arts Saint Master) has been captured!]

【bite!.........】

..............................

"Martial Arts Saint Master? Martial Arts Bear Master?"

The moment Mu Yun saw the name, he immediately understood.

Urshifu is a rare legendary Pokémon among legendary Pokémon, possessing a complete evolutionary chain and capable of forming a colony.

Furthermore, its evolutionary form is not fixed, but rather it is divided into two types based on its own characteristics and tendencies: one-hit style and combo style.

However, none of this matters. There are other legendary elves with different races besides the Martial Bear Master race, and there are also those with evolutionary chains.

What impressed Mu Yun most was its base stat total of only 550.

Its base stats are even lower than those of the legendary birds, which are considered gatekeepers.

Of course, base stats are mainly used to distinguish the potential and strength of ordinary Pokémon.

Considering Terrakion's stats, Mu Yun felt that Urshifu, also a legendary Pokémon, shouldn't be judged solely on its base stats.

Alternatively, if the summoned creature is a bear apprentice, then the evolution essence can be used.

After it gains primal power, its base stats can reach 870.

After regaining his senses, Mu Yun continued to look at the subsequent system prompts.

..............................

[Ding! This ability contains divine will, and the master of that will is dead, but the physical body still has vitality. Only a portion of the effect can be obtained!]

[Ding! Do you wish to spend 30000 energy points to complete it?]

[Ding! Do you wish to spend 120000 energy to plunder the remaining divine power of the original body?]

..............................

"Another one imbued with divine power and will, and the master of that will is already dead?"

Mu Yun wasn't too surprised by this, after all, the waveguide below did indeed resemble a scene from after death.

It was just that because it hadn't dissipated for a long time and was so enormous, he couldn't be sure for the time being.

Now it seems that divine beasts are indeed extraordinary. Not only can they place their will in their bloodline inheritance and revive at any time, but they can also maintain their vitality for a considerable period of time after death.

Perhaps this is also related to the remaining divine power within the other person's body.

However, since the other party was already dead, Mu Yun naturally wouldn't hesitate.

"Complete! Plunder!"

In an instant, the black and white sphere of light that only Mu Yun could see suddenly shone brightly.

The pale white light turned into jade white, and the lifeless black became translucent.

Meanwhile, from the waveguide perspective.

That powerful waveguide began to tremble slightly at this moment.

"Rumble~~~"

An earthquake-like tremor was felt on the misty island.

The vibrations were small and extremely regular, unlike natural vibrations; it was more like something underground was turning over.

The vibrations came quickly and went quickly.

The whole thing took less than half a minute.

"What happened?"

Zhao Xuan shielded Zhao Geyuan, then immediately released a staff-tailed scaled dragon, looking around warily.

But apart from the strange, earthquake-like fluctuations, there were no other abnormalities.

Zhao Xuan was somewhat confused, while Zhao Geyuan immediately took out his pen, shook it, and then took out a booklet to start taking notes.

"...About an hour (half an hour) after the fourth stone pillar collapsed, Cloud Mist Island experienced regular tremors, suspected to be caused by a divine beast rising from beneath the island..."

Zhao Xuan ignored Zhao Geyuan's records and instead looked at Mu Yun: "Young friend Mu, have you discovered anything?"

Amid the tremors, Mu Yun remained unmoved and replied, "Clan Chief Zhao, it's the waveguide below that's vibrating."

Mu Yun thought it might be related to the extraction of divine power.

Because, after the divine power was extracted, he discovered that the waveguide shrank visibly.

That's roughly equivalent to Mount Everest having been shorn off by several hundred meters.

Compared to the overall number, it's not many, but it's actually quite a lot.

In addition, the waveguide, which was originally calm and undisturbed like a mountain, is now slowly decaying.

Clearly, the reason its waveguide has remained stable for hundreds of years is divine power.

Judging from this rate of change, the waveguide underneath will likely collapse completely within a century.

"A hundred years..."

Normal living things would rot beyond recognition in less than a day.

As for waveguides, they will begin to disintegrate within minutes of death.

In contrast, the time span of the mythical beast is really absurd.

"Hmm? The fog density has increased?"

Just as Mu Yun felt a little guilty about destroying the Zhao family's secret realm, the already thick fog around him continued to thicken.

"While the divine power is locking in the freshness, it's also restricting the escape of the dense fog? Or is this so-called dense fog actually a byproduct of the Martial Arts Bear Master's corpse returning to nature?"

Mu Yun was deeply shocked.

However, this is also good. It seems that the disintegration of Martial Arts Master Xiong's body in a short period of time is not only not harmful, but also very beneficial to the Zhao family.

As for the future?

For a century, he refused to believe he couldn't become a god!

At that time, he will definitely have a way to restore a secret realm where the birth of a corpse is maintained by divine power, or even go further!

"May our ancestors bless us! May our ancestors bless us!!"

Just as Mu Yun was pondering, Zhao Geyuan's excited voice rang out from the side.

Zhao Xuan, standing beside him, also had a glint in his eyes.

Clearly, both of them linked the ground tremors to the increased fog.

Did Mu Yun offer any further explanation?

Sometimes, misunderstandings are better for everyone.

..............................

At noon, inside the Zhao Family Manor.

Overwhelmed with excitement, Zhao Xuan waved his hand and threw a grand banquet, inviting Mu Yun, Chi Duoduo, Lü Shouchun, and most of the Zhao family members who could make it back, to announce the matter.

Immediately, Mu Yun felt that the atmosphere of the banquet had reached a new level.

Especially when Zhao Xuan said he wanted to restore the glory of the Zhao family, surpass his ancestors, and recreate its former glory, many elderly members of the Zhao family instantly burst into tears.

Mu Yun was filled with emotion upon seeing this.

Although both are large families, the Xu family and the Zhao family gave him completely different feelings.

It wasn't just the difference between Zhao Xuan, the clan leader, and Xu Dian, the old clan leader; the attitudes of the younger generation within the clan were also worlds apart.

Even though Zhao Ziye was defeated by him, he still maintained his original aspiration and longed to fight again.

In contrast, the Xu family either plotted to double-cross others or allegedly switched the elf eggs directly. Their actions were despicable, their minds were narrow, and they were unlikely to achieve great things.

"Xiaoyun, is it really done?"

After drinking two cups, Lü Shouchun and Zhao Shiyu brought a large glass of baijiu to Mu Yun's side, connected via waveguide, and asked him a question.

"almost."

Mu Yun said.

Upon hearing this, Lü Shouchun glanced at Mu Yun.

almost?

It sounds like there's a hidden meaning in what they're saying.

But she didn't ask any more questions. She could tell that although Mu Yun was young, he had his own style of doing things. If he wanted to say something, he would say it directly. If he didn't want to say something, asking would be pointless.

Therefore, Lü Shouchun did not ask any further questions. After clinking glasses with Mu Yun, he returned to the banquet to continue drinking.

Zhao Xuan was in a good mood today, so he took out his treasured century-old wine, which had a very mellow and fragrant taste.

Even Mu Yun, who doesn't like drinking, took a small sip.

"The restoration of our Zhao family's secret realm this time is all thanks to our friend, Mu Yun!"

As the banquet reached its climax, Zhao Xuan, reeking of alcohol, pulled Mu Yun onto the stage and loudly introduced him.

Mu Yun simply smiled and nodded, not taking credit for anything. He just said things like, "Clan Chief Zhao has insightful vision, courage, and drive. The Zhao family is fortunate, so this is only right."

After the banquet, Mu Yun left with Chi Duoduo, who had eaten and drunk her fill.

As soon as Mu Yun returned to his room, he heard a knock on the door.

Upon opening the package, they found that the visitor was none other than Zhao Shiyu.

She was also holding an elf egg in her arms, which was in an incubator.
