Elf: I have a secret realm of emerald green.

As the stone tablet of the creator god, it still has this much principle.

The angry monster slab used its own power to seal away all the ghost-type spirits that had flooded into the human world and brought them back to the spirit realm.

At the same time, it saved the soul of the only surviving boy in Fengdu, who later became Masado.

From this point on, the gate between the spirit world and the human world was closed forever.

Only the Night Demon and Marshall, who were faithful believers of God from beginning to end, acquired this ability.

Of course, the consequence of using the power of origin was that the stone slab fell into a semi-dormant state, leaving only a Night Demon Spirit and Marshado to serve it.

They feed the spirits of the monster slab, which is basically in a "vegetative" state, providing it with nutrients.

…………

Until a year ago, words finally appeared on the monster stone tablet.

The gist of it is that the spirits of the crystal lamp, which he has sealed away for thousands of years, are about to awaken.

However, he was powerless to suppress them. If he let them wake up naturally, he could then use his abilities to open the gate to the spirit world.

I fear that dark day will come again.

So the Demon Stone Tablet instructed the Night Demon and Marshado to go to the Western Paradise to invite Buddha... no, to the mortal realm to invite Xia Shen a year later.

That's why we're in this situation now.

"So, you want me to deal with those chandelier spirits that even your master couldn't suppress...?"

Xia Shen rolled her eyes. "Why don't you take me back first? I'll go get reinforcements. Hmph, the Crystal Chandelier Spirit? I'll make sure they don't leave alive!"

He was serious. He only had so many Pokémon, and none of the legendary Pokémon he knew were Ghost-type. He didn't even know if he could unleash his full power in the Spirit World.

It's not certain that they can handle the Crystal Lampfire Spirit Legion, which even the Demon Stone Tablet couldn't seal.

In contrast, in the real world, there are so many Champions and Elite Four members; each of their Pokémon could probably drown them with a single move.

[I'm sorry, I really don't have that ability... And after giving that instruction, the master fell into a deep sleep again.]

[Only one month remains until the day predicted by the master.]

Although the Night Demon's reply was not much different from Xia Shen's expectations, it still made him sigh.

A month... that's really a bit rushed, I guess I just had to do it anyway.

However, we can't completely ignore the real world. Although I can't go back myself, the Night Demon can.

It shouldn't be too difficult for it to relay the message.

Xia pondered for a moment, then took out the Ghost Pearl that the Golden Heavenly King had given him.

"Could you help me take this to someone? You don't need to say too much, just tell him about the possible invasion of the spirit world in a month."

After Li Xiang returned from Dongdu, he disappeared again. Currently, the most influential person in Wudu is Jin Ruanruan.

Xia Shen believed he was a trustworthy person.

Moreover, as a superstar, he has enough influence.

However... the Night Demon shook its head with difficulty.

[The ability to travel between worlds that my master bestowed upon me is not unlimited. I've been traveling back and forth frequently these past few days, and I even opened the gate to the spirit world for you. I need to recover my energy. Next time, it will be in a month...]

Xia Shen was completely helpless. In any case, he could only rely on himself.

…………

"Alright, so besides Ghost-type Pokémon, are there any restrictions on the strength of other Pokémon in the Spirit World?"

This is crucial, as it determines whether the mythical beast you summon can unleash its full power.

The question was simple, and Night Demon replied without hesitation: [Because of the rules of the Spirit Realm, I will become a half-soul like Rowlet and the others, and my strength will be greatly reduced. On the contrary, Ghost-type Pokémon can unleash even greater power.]

Well, our side has been weakened once again.

With so much debt, Xia Shen was no longer worried and completely gave up. "One last question: how many of those crystal chandelier spirits are there... and what is their strength?"

[There are probably... a few hundred of them, and at least a dozen of them are stronger than me. As for their leader...]

Seemingly thinking of something extremely terrifying, the Night Demon couldn't help but shudder.

Xia Shen also roughly understood that it was more than just champion level.

Judging from the energy level, it should be close to level 90, right?

Is it close to the level of a second-tier god...?

In addition, there were more than a dozen king-level subordinates and hundreds of minions at least at the professional level.

The Monster Stone Tablet nurtured monsters a thousand years ago, right?

But with the help of the Three Holy Ones and Zoroark and Goodra, we should be able to hold on... right?

------

[The spirit world? Why would you go to such a ghostly place?]

Although Yukshi still hadn't opened its eyes, Xia Shen could tell that it was frowning and was very puzzled by Xia Shen's confusing behavior.

Left with no other choice, Xia Shen had to recount the whole story from beginning to end.

Yukeshi pondered for a long time.

[I don't know more about the spirit world than you do, and in fact, my understanding differs from yours in some ways. Now that I think about it, perhaps every world has its own spirit world.]

I'll definitely help you, but I can't guarantee how effective I'll be in the spirit world. How about you take me around first?

Yukshi is never resistant to new things.

Perhaps it also stems from confidence in their own abilities.

Xia Shen smiled slightly. Sure enough, Yu Kexi was the most reliable.

So, will we finally find out Yuxi's rank today?

With an excited heart and trembling hands, Xia Shen took out a bunch of Poké Balls and used his psychic powers to control them, arranging them in a row in front of Uxie.

"Come on, pick one. I've captured so many elves, but none of them have received this treatment!"

Xia Shen chuckled, his anticipation so intense that he unconsciously started rubbing his hands together like flies.

Although Xia Shen had previously "captured" Heatran with a Poké Ball, he was still as excited as ever.

Please, it's a legendary elf, a true level two god!

It still wants to go into my Poké Ball on its own, doesn't it?

Seeing Xia Shen's pathetic state, Yu Kexi angrily lashed him with her tail.

But after humming twice, it still chose the most beautiful one, the pink and tender healing ball.

Without any resistance, with a "ding," Yukshi temporarily became Xia Shen's spirit.

"Wuhu~"

Although Xia Shen had known Yu Kexi for nearly two years, she couldn't help but let out a small cheer.

He eagerly opened the Arceus phone to check Yuxi's information.

[by Keshi]

[Attribute: Psychic]

[Energy Level: 93]

[Gender: None]

[Characteristic: Levitation]

[Techniques: Supernatural Power, Triple Attack, Meditation, Mystic Power, Hypnosis, Sleep, Mental Shock, Mental Blade, Trick Space...]

…………

Compared to Heatran, Yuxie is much stronger!

Although level 93 may seem only slightly higher than level 91, each level of a divine beast is vastly different.

This is normal, though, since Heatran was just an unintentional creation of Palkia and Dialga.

In terms of seniority, he could call Yukexi "uncle".

Hmph, with such a capable general, why should I worry about the magic of that crystal chandelier!

Xia Shen, who had "subdued" Yu Kexi, did not immediately return to the spirit world, but instead went to find two other helpers.

The Zoroark and the Goomew races.

As the saying goes, "A hero needs three helpers."

There were too many of those chandelier spirits for Yukshi to handle alone; some mid-level combatants would still be indispensable.

However, after hearing Xia Shen's purpose, both leaders unanimously expressed their intentions, saying that they could only bring two or three tribesmen with them.

According to Xia Shen's description, this journey was far too dangerous.

First, there's the mysterious and unpredictable spirit realm. As the leader of a race, an elf who has lived for an unknown amount of time, they must have heard of this legend.

They also knew that nothing could come out of the spirit world, which was the first risk.

Secondly, there were hundreds of crystal lampfire spirits... and a dozen or so with similar strength to the two of them.

This is not as easy as the last time we ganged up on Moon Bear.

Out of a desire to protect their people, they were honest with Xia Shen and said that this was all they could do to help.

Xia Shen wasn't the kind of person who was greedy; he was already very grateful that the two leaders had come to help.

Naturally, no more demands would be made.

After discussing it with Zoroark and the others, Xia Shen took Yukshi back to the Spirit Realm.

There's no rush to find Thundurus and Memridor. If Yuxie can unleash enough power, perhaps we won't need to bother them.

…………

The spirit world.

Xia Shen climbed out of the tent, breathing in the fresh air of the spirit world, which seemed to be imbued with a special aura.
