Chapter 421

"Hehehe, even if you left the Void World from the Land of Heaven and Earth with the broken secret realm and fled to this world that is still resisting, you didn't notice that I am still attached to the stone your soul turned into, did you?"

"How does it feel to have your soul devoured by 【Us】 after your physical body was devoured countless years ago?"

"The last Pokémon of that world—Reshiram?"

Its tone was at times impassioned, at times low, at times mocking.

Unfortunately, there was no response to what it said, as if it were a one-man show.

It wasn't annoyed, either; it let out two hehehe laughs and continued: "I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. So the White Dragon Reshiram, who used extreme scorching blue flames to kill countless of 【Us】 【Void Shadows】, has actually weakened to this extent today."

"I swallowed the illusory Light Stone that your soul turned into, which allowed me to change my shape into your appearance, and at the same time, I transformed from an intangible body acting on instinct into your form, gaining intelligence and the ability to speak."

"All of this is thanks to two humans from a few months ago who brought the source of us, a machine with the aura of negative energy, which awakened me, and you along with it."

"During this period, the negative emotions of humans and Pokémon have been truly delicious, allowing me to grow to this point. Their contribution cannot be ignored."

"So what if you released them before I made my move?"

"It won't take long before the baseness and curiosity of humans drive them to open Pandora's Gate and destroy themselves."

"All of this is thanks to you bringing me into the interior of this world that even Lord Dark Matter has been unable to conquer for a long time, hahahaha! Is it not enough that your own world was destroyed, and you want to drag others down with you?"

The creature calling itself the Void Shadow seemed to have stimulated the remnant will inside the Light Stone with what it said, and a weak male voice rang out—

"The... hero... will... completely eliminate you... and your... master..."

The Void Shadow seemed to have been poked in its funny bone and laughed wildly: "Hero? Are you talking about the Rainbow Hero, the Hero of Truth, the Hero of Ideals, or the Aura Hero, those vulnerable guys who are pinned with high hopes by your world?"

"Or perhaps... the new Hero of Truth you found after coming to this world?"

The Void Shadow looked toward the sky, where three figures that had disappeared after being attacked by it turned into black dots and flew straight toward it from high in the sky.

It had been wondering where these rats had run off to; it turned out they were hiding at the highest point of the secret realm's sky.

No wonder it hadn't found a trace of these guys in the Lost Mist, which was like its own tentacles, a talent of the Void Shadows.

"As expected of the Hero of Truth you chose, exactly the same as the previous generation—all courage and no strategy."

The Void Shadow had now changed its shape into Reshiram's appearance, so naturally, it could also use its abilities.

"By the way, I've thought of a wonderful side show!"

"I will blow the first horn for Lord Dark Matter to invade this world. Before that, as a side show—let's kill a Hero of Truth first!"

"Ah... excuse me, you haven't formed a contract yet; you should be a candidate Hero of Truth, hehehehe—"

The Void Shadow looked mockingly at the Light Stone with three holes in its body and met Su Hao and the others, who were rushing over, wrapped in waves of fishy wind!

"It discovered us; it's flying straight toward us." Articuno, carrying Su Hao and Diancie, saw the negative energy phantom at the top of the tower at a glance.

The situation was truly urgent, and Su Hao and Articuno had already made a plan.

After they eliminated the Reshiram phantom formed by the negative energy, Diancie and Articuno would act to isolate the blood-red mist near the entrance of the former Spiral Secret Realm, and then Su Hao would open the secret realm gate to prevent the incoming Heavenly King-level trainers from forcibly entering the Spiral Secret Realm.

If the other party didn't listen to advice, as a last resort, Su Hao would reveal his identity as Articuno's divine envoy and forcibly stop anyone coming to the Spiral Secret Realm.

Even Heavenly Kings and Champions would be no exception.

Articuno said that as long as there weren't multiple Master-level Pokémon coming, if a Champion-level came, it would fight them one by one!

At that time, they could just invite Suicune over to purify the blood-red mist.

But, the premise of all this was to defeat the negative energy phantom, whose current abilities were unknown, so that it wouldn't become an uncertain factor affecting the plan————

In short, scatter the negative energy phantom first!

"The attack is coming!"

Articuno's serious voice rang out. The negative energy phantom opened its mouth and spat out a monstrous pillar of fire that was black with red, and the rich negative aura within it made the sensitive Su Hao feel extremely uncomfortable.

He didn't expect that being sensitive to various emotions because of Aura would have such a disadvantage.

Articuno stretched its icy blue wings to tilt its body, narrowly avoiding the pillar of fire, and then it flew around the pillar of fire in a circling posture, approaching the negative energy phantom.

During the flight, Articuno was very careful not to let itself come into contact with the attacks released by the negative energy phantom.

This thing's abilities were strange and bizarre, and the battle experience from countless years ago told it that if it could avoid contact, it should.

"Blizzard!"

As they got closer, Su Hao pointed at the negative energy phantom in Reshiram's form and shouted loudly.

Articuno nodded seriously and mobilized its authority with all its might. Vast and boundless ice energy gathered, and a super-large blizzard that could be called a natural disaster attacked everything in the Spiral Secret Realm indiscriminately, and even the blood-red mist was frozen into eternal ice or blown away.

To deal with these guys, one must go all out!

The Void Shadow, which was preparing to launch its second attack, was startled and said in disbelief: "God!?... Wait...!"

Before it could finish speaking, except for Articuno itself and Su Hao and Diancie, whom it was protecting, the entire Spiral Secret Realm was completely frozen by the great power of the god, and ice sculptures of all shapes and sizes were formed.

At this moment, the entire Spiral Secret Realm seemed to have entered an Ice Age————
