Chapter 525
Cliff Sword warning!
995. You really think highly of me
Among the Legendary Pokémon, there are also the so-called super-ancient Pokémon, which are Kyogre, Groudon, and Rayquaza, and the characteristics of these three super-ancient Pokémon are all related to weather.
Kyogre and Groudon are the creators of the ocean and land, respectively, and possess the ability to expand the ocean or land.
Also because of such a contradiction, in the super-ancient times of the Pokémon world, Kyogre and Groudon have fought many times.
And basically, when Kyogre and Groudon fight each other, Rayquaza, who has been wandering in the atmosphere, will descend to the ground to stop them.
Of course, for these three Legendary Pokémon, there are three other more widely known nicknames.
Deep Sea King, Can't Fly, Green Caterpillar!
Although the nicknames are a bit strange, and only Kyogre's nickname is worthy of the title of super-ancient Legendary Pokémon, it's a pity that it was once fished up.
But it cannot be denied that whether it's Kyogre, Groudon, or Rayquaza, their strength in the Pokémon world is top-notch; they are definitely Tier 1 Gods.
Especially Rayquaza, that guy's one-versus-seven battle of deification can be said to have set off a frenzy.
However, this Finish Finish Time, the Pokémon Lu Li chose for Yan Yuexin was not Rayquaza, but Groudon.
After all, Rayquaza is not Fire-type.
As for Groudon, although this Legendary Pokémon can't fly, if you really compare it, its strength has some gap with Rayquaza, but that's only a gap with the 'cheating' Rayquaza; Groudon's strength is definitely not bad.
Even in terms of base stats, Groudon in its normal state has higher base stats than Mew, and this doesn't even count the Primal Reversion state.
Once Primal Reversion occurs, Groudon's base stats will soar again, and its strength will be further improved.
It's a pity that it can't fly. Even after Primal Reversion, can't fly is can't fly.
Hmm, of course, this was before Terastallization came out. After having Terastallization, Groudon has, in a sense, gotten rid of the nickname 'can't fly.'
"What Pokémon?" Yan Yuexin couldn't help but rub against him. She had no knowledge of Pokémon; her only knowledge was Mew, which Lu Li created first.
So, since Lu Li could give suggestions, that was naturally even better. No matter how others are, their understanding and knowledge of the original worldview are definitely not comparable to the original Magic Card creator himself.
"Groudon, one of the legendary super-ancient Pokémon. Just looking at the base stats, even Mew's base stats can't compare to Groudon's."
"Base stats?" Yan Yuexin was confused. She didn't know what the base stats of this Pokémon meant.
"Hmm, you can simply understand it as the strength of the Pokémon." Although interrupted by Yan Yuexin, Lu Li wasn't annoyed and explained.
The strength of a Pokémon naturally cannot be simply summarized by base stats; after all, Pikachu is the best example—just believe in it and it's done.
But it cannot be denied that Pokémon with high base stats are indeed stronger than Pokémon with low base stats.
"Telling you like this, you might not understand. I'd better draw it for you directly, and you will also need this as a reference when depicting the card art later."
As the words fell, Lu Li's mental power spread out, depicting Groudon's appearance in the air.
He had also shown such an operation to Tiamat before, but at that Finish Finish Time, he was in the Eternal Land and didn't need to worry about consumption.
Now, it didn't count as anything; after all, he had already advanced to the Undying Realm, and in every aspect, he was stronger than before, enough to support such consumption.
Under Lu Li's depiction, Groudon's figure gradually became clear in Yan Yuexin's mind.
It was a super-giant Pokémon covered in red, plate-like skin. Lu Li also thoughtfully placed Mew next to Groudon to compare their sizes, so that she could intuitively see how huge Groudon was.
Mew's small body was not even as big as one of Groudon's eyes.
The dark side of Groudon's body was gray, and large spikes extended from its head, torso, and tail. Combined with its visibly huge size, it was full of oppressive force.
Each hand had four claws, four bulldozer-like teeth tilted at the end of Groudon's tail, each foot had three claws, and there were gray marks on the soles of its feet.
There were blue spikes in the seams of Groudon's skin, but these blue spikes could only be seen when this super-ancient Pokémon was accumulating power.
Under Lu Li's control, the projected Groudon began Primal Reversion. While its body became even larger and more ferocious, the seams of its skin also showed a lava-like orange-yellow color. On the circular part at the base of Primal Groudon's arm, the 'Ω' mark appeared, and this mark also appeared on the vermilion orb on Groudon's body.
"Hiss, this is the Pokémon you mentioned!" Seeing the projection of Groudon and Primal Groudon, Yan Yuexin's small mouth opened wide, enough to swallow a large sausage, her eyes full of shock.
"Hmm!" Seeing this, Lu Li nodded. "In the Pokémon world, Groudon is rumored to be the incarnation of the earth, and has long been described in myths as a Pokémon that creates land and expands continents."
"Groudon possesses the power to make rain clouds disappear and use strong light and high temperatures to evaporate water to expand the land. It once appeared as a savior before people suffering from flood disasters."
"With the help of natural energy, Groudon, which was already very powerful, can also undergo Primal Reversion."
"Or rather, Primal Reversion is actually Groudon's original appearance, and at this Finish Finish Time, Groudon's power can even generate lava to expand the land."
Not only did he project Groudon's appearance, but Lu Li's speech also explained the information about this Pokémon to Yan Yuexin.
With the help of this information, Yan Yuexin could digest the data about Groudon faster, and thus could create the Groudon Pokémon Magic Card faster.
Yan Yuexin clearly knew this, so when Lu Li mentioned this information about Groudon, she silently remembered it in her heart.
However, when Lu Li finished explaining, the young girl turned her head, her beautiful eyes staring at him, and asked a soul-searching question: "Do you think that with my current ability, I can create this Pokémon, Groudon?"
996. Can't you look for the reason within yourself?
It wasn't that Yan Yuexin was belittling herself; after all, her innate talent was not poor, and especially after passing the Holy See's trial and obtaining the inheritance within, her talent had been further enhanced.
If one really had to say, Yan Yuexin's current talent was even a notch higher than Meng Meng Meng Ningdie's.
But no matter how high the talent, it takes Finish Finish Time to convert it into actual strength. Yan Yuexin was currently only at the King Realm and hadn't even managed to reach the Emperor Realm yet.
And the Groudon that Lu Li spoke of—the description alone didn't sound like a Pokémon Magic Card spirit that could be easily crafted.
With her current strength, she feared that even if she wasted all the resources of the Yan family, she might not be able to craft Groudon.
This was no joke; otherwise, why would higher-star Magic Cards require higher-level Magic Card Masters to craft them? That was the reason.
Not everyone could be as outrageous and abnormal as Lu Li, who, while at a low level, could craft all sorts of special Magic Cards to coordinate with Magic Card spirits to boost their strength.
In fact, even Lu Li only crafted Mew, which reached an initial level of eleven stars, after promoting to the Immortal Realm. Before that, he had basically never crafted a Magic Card spirit whose initial level reached the Super-Tier sequence.
In a sense, this was actually a result of being influenced by the rules of the Magic Card civilization.
It was just that Lu Li's performance had always been so outrageous, and his Magic Card spirits were so powerful, that people subconsciously ignored this point.
But while Lu Li could ignore this point, Yan Yuexin could not! Or rather, this was something no other normal Magic Card Master could ignore.
"Uh," hearing this soul-searching question from Yan Yuexin, Lu Li was also stunned. He had truly forgotten about this; after all, his own situation was very special, and others couldn't imitate it even if they wanted to.
Even if Yan Yuexin possessed extremely high talent, it would still take quite some Finish Finish Time to fully convert that talent into her own strength.
To craft Groudon, and a Groudon that possessed the Primal Reversion form at that, Lu Li estimated that she would have to wait until she stepped into the High-Tier Immortal Realm, or even the Undying Realm, before it would be possible to attempt it.
Groudon's strength was even greater than Mew's. Even with Mew reaching the eleven-star Legendary level, Groudon's strength could definitely reach the twelve-star level.
Thinking about it this way, it was indeed not something the current Yan Yuexin could craft; in fact, for a relatively long Finish Finish Time, Yan Yuexin would have no way to craft Groudon.
"It seems that for the Pokémon configured for the others, there must be a transition first," Yan Yuexin's words also served as a reminder to Lu Li. He had originally intended to equip all the young ladies with Legendary Pokémon, but now it seemed he had been a bit too hasty and had somewhat neglected the actual situation.
"In that case, I reckon only Teacher and Seeing Seeing Ziyun have the ability to craft Legendary Pokémon for now. As for the others, let's find some ordinary Pokémon for them as a transition for the Finish Finish Time being."
"Moreover, they can take advantage of this Finish Finish Time to have a more in-depth understanding of Pokémon, so that it will be much easier when they craft Legendary Pokémon in the future."
Night Queen and Seeing Seeing Ziyun were both big shots at the Undying Realm level; even if they were exposed to Legendary Pokémon from the start, Lu Li didn't think there would be any problem for them.
With a plan in mind, since there wasn't only one Groudon among Fire-type Pokémon, many Pokémon that were much weaker but clearly much easier to craft immediately surfaced in Lu Li's mind.
Although the strength of these Pokémon could not be compared to Groudon, it did not mean their strength was poor; they were just right for the current Yan Yuexin to craft.
"It is indeed true that I was thinking a bit too fast. However, young lady, you should also reflect on why your strength is improving so slowly. I've already paved the way for you, why are you so disappointing!"
However, although he immediately changed his train of thought, Lu Li still wore a pained expression on his face, as if he were pained by Yan Yuexin's lack of ambition.
???
Why don't you listen to what you just said?
Yan Yuexin's mind was full of question marks now. She hadn't expected Lu Li to have such a reaction to her soul-searching question.
Do you think everyone is as abnormal as you? I'm just a normal person with slightly better talent...
Also, what the hell is this tone you're using? Why are you acting like an elder of mine?
"I'll bite you to death!" The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. Yan Yuexin went full-action, pounced on Lu Li, and bit down.
Although he was startled by Yan Yuexin's sudden move, Lu Li's reaction was equally agile; he backhanded and pinned the young lady beneath him.
This girl, you've really rebelled. It seems he needed to let her understand who was in the dominant position.
"Little one, you're finally willing to come back?"
Night Palace, one of the forbidden areas of the Ancient Kingdom and the residence of the Night Queen. As soon as Lu Li's figure appeared in the Night Palace, the Night Queen's iconic, seductive voice reached his ears.
"If I hadn't come back, would you have run directly to the Southern Region to catch me, Teacher?" Hearing that familiar voice, Lu Li couldn't help but tease, while his figure disappeared.
When he appeared again, Lu Li had already arrived inside the main hall of the Night Palace, and the Night Queen was sitting on the main seat of the hall, just like a queen.
Yan Yuexin had no way to craft Groudon now, so after Lu Li finished lecturing her, he provided other suitable Fire-type Pokémon for her to choose from.
In the end, the girl chose Charmander, one of the classic first-generation starter Pokémon, as her first Pokémon Magic Card.
Lu Li had no objections to this and even expressed his approval. After all, although Charmander's initial strength was average, Charizard, after evolving, had once possessed god-slaying strength.
Of course, not everyone's Charizard was that outrageous.
However, Charizard had other forms. Whether it was Charizard X or Y, or Gigantamax Charizard, their base stats were greatly improved. If they really fought, they wouldn't fear some Tier 2 gods, which was enough for Yan Yuexin to use as a transition until she could craft Groudon in the future.
