Chapter 203: Grand Evolution

【The return of the authority, I have received it.】

The seven-colored Fairy Aura unfolded, and the dead tree gradually changed into a Pokémon with large colorful horns that looked like a deer.

Xerneas's body color was a mix of blue and black, and it had eight beige large horns on its head that looked like branches; each end of the horn had two branches, and it was decorated with orange, red, purple, and water-blue protrusions, with the colors on the left and right sides being opposite.

Its head skin was dark blue, and the two horns grew on both sides of its cheeks, with the base of the horns extending all the way to under its eyes and on its nose.

Xerneas's eyes were the same color as its fur. Its pupils were in the shape of the English letter X, and its body also looked like an X from the front.

The blue part of the body extended outward from the fur on its chest and curled upward at the ends, just like two blue horns; the other parts of its body were black, with a blue stripe on its spine, and a small, fluffy black tail at the position where the blue stripe ended.

Its limbs seemed to have hook-shaped hooves pointing forward at the tips, and its main edges, like the horns, were beige, forming a cross shape; the edges of the lower half of its forelimbs showed even more beautiful patterns.

Xerneas

The return of the authority had no effect on Carbink; her mutation progress was still 99%.

Celebi floated to the side and exclaimed: 【Giving up the highest-level life authority just like that, what wonderful humans and Pokémon.】

Smiling and shaking his head, Su Hao said to Xerneas: "Do you still have to stay here now?"

Xerneas's power had fully recovered, and it, having recovered its body, could move freely and even leave this secret realm.

Facing Su Hao's question, Xerneas shook its head and said seriously: 【Without my suppression, Yveltal will eventually devour the secret realm, and then descend into the real world to continue using death power to absorb all life.】

This was its duty, and it would not leave or escape.

Xerneas's dark blue pupils looked straight toward the other end of the secret realm; the Cocoon of Destruction was right there.

After a while.

【Let's begin.】

Carbink was now at the critical line of mutation; after Xerneas, Su Hao, and Celebi discussed it, they decided to hold the mutation ceremony right here.

"Na na~"

【I will... work hard!】

Carbink's will was very firm; now she had a clear goal.

Complete the mutation, become stronger with Su Hao, master her own authority, and then come to help her mother!

Before Xerneas used the life authority to strengthen the Fairy Aura to help Carbink mutate, Su Hao took the Brilliant Stone and specifically went to discuss it with Xerneas.

Carbink had already absorbed a lot of the 【Light】 emitted from the Brilliant Stone, and now the Brilliant Stone was slightly dim.

Su Hao proposed to take advantage of this life sublimation opportunity for Carbink to completely absorb this Brilliant Stone.

As a powerful First-Class deity, Xerneas was very curious about the 【Light】 inside this Brilliant Stone.

This was energy it had never seen before; although the total amount of this energy was not much, its quality and status made it feel that 【Light】 was even stronger than its own Fairy energy.

Xerneas asked Su Hao where he got the Brilliant Stone, and Su Hao could only say it was obtained by accident.
