Chapter 428
Confirming that the void shadow had been blown into dust, Diancie also ushered in a small wave of strengthening.
Su Hao felt that this trip was worthwhile!
But, the biggest gain was..........
Every time he got closer to the Light Stone, the Secret Realm Key in his brain vibrated more violently, almost wanting to break out of his skull.
Su Hao was a little curious about what would happen when he touched the Light Stone?
Would the full-form Legendary Pokémon Reshiram appear before him and bow down, wanting to establish Su Hao as its Truth Hero?
Or would Reshiram indicate that Su Hao still needed to go through several trials to become a Truth Hero......
Or Reshiram no longer had the power to manifest......
Facts proved that Su Hao guessed right.
The moment his hand touched the illusory Light Stone, the Secret Realm Key in his brain shot out like white light, and in the blink of an eye, it merged with the illusory Light Stone.
In an instant, the light soared.
The blindingly intense white light forced Diancie to close her eyes, and Articuno silently put back on the sunglasses it had just taken off.
And Su Hao, in the blink of an eye, found that he had arrived at that space again.
A space of blue flames, burning with a prairie fire that knew no bounds.
The only difference was that he no longer felt the suffocating heat, nor did he have the powerlessness of his body being out of control.
In his ears was the sound of blue flames burning; Su Hao no longer had the panic of last time and shouted firmly to the surroundings: "Reshiram, are you here?"
Arriving here again, Su Hao speculated that it was Reshiram's spiritual world.
It could only mean that Reshiram had something to tell him.
"Yes, I am here."
Suddenly, the voice came from behind, and Su Hao turned his head to look.
A Pokémon that was completely white, without any impurities, and could be called holy in Su Hao's eyes, was flapping its angel-like white wings and flying quietly behind Su Hao.
Its appearance was like a combination of a hundred birds and a Western dragon with huge wing claws, and its whole body was covered with soft body hair like feathers.
The bright blue eye color and pitch-black sclera added a touch of divinity to it, and long, cloud-like white hair grew on the top of its head, fluttering in the wind like tassels, full of fairy aura.
Its face resembled a white wolf, and there were two metallic-lustered rings on its neck. Its posture was slender and long, its abdomen was wrapped in soft white hair, its feet had hard protruding parts with clear textures, the overall shape of the lower legs was relatively bony, the silver claws on the front feet were long and sharp, and the hind feet also had a slightly smaller claw propped up; it was more like a bird than a dragon.
Like the neck, the base of Reshiram's tail was also surrounded by two metallic-lustered rings. Under the rings was an object shaped like an engine. Adding the rings and looking at it as a whole, the end of the tail seemed to be a cluster of flames or fairy-like smoke, ethereal and incomparable.
And this tail, in Su Hao's impression, corresponded to Reshiram's overclocking drive mode.
Resembling a god, a dragon, and a bird, the numerous elements combined on its body did not appear abrupt at all, as if they were natural, reasonable, and sacred.
"The white dragon that pursues truth...... Reshiram......" Su Hao muttered to himself.
Except for Giratina, who had no majesty, and Xerneas, who was approachable and had a great sense of kindness, Reshiram interpreted what divinity was in front of Su Hao.
An ethereal and magnetic male voice sounded, and Reshiram responded: "That's right, I am Reshiram. It seems that this world also has our legends......"
"......"
Hearing Reshiram's response, Su Hao thought silently in his heart that this world only had the legend of Kyurem, while Reshiram and Zekrom seemed to have disappeared from history.
Before he could speak, Reshiram said gratefully: "Su Hao, thank you for your help in defeating the Void Shadow that had been hiding in the secret realm and came to your world with me because of my negligence countless years ago."
"This world, my world? Reshiram, you......"
Reshiram's words stirred Su Hao's memory. Reshiram mentioned "this world" and "your world" several times, and a possibility floated in his mind.
"It seems you have noticed."
Reshiram's voice was gentle and full of patience.
Its voice said unhurriedly: "Please allow me to introduce myself. My name is Reshiram, the Dragon of Truth, the last Pokémon from an alien world that has already been destroyed."
Speaking to the end, its voice couldn't help but be tinged with a trace of sorrow.
Seeing Reshiram's expression tinged with sadness, Su Hao thought, as expected, and opened his mouth cautiously: "Was it...... by dark matter?"
Reshiram was surprised: "It seems you know a lot. I won't go into detail about this, because there is not much time left......"
It didn't give Su Hao time to speak and said the necessary words in one breath.
"As predicted, I have waited in this world for the person who resonates with me. Although I would very much like to admit that you are my Truth Hero now, it is a pity that I do not have that qualification at the moment."
"As for me now, my body was swallowed by that monster called the Void Shadow countless years ago, and only my soul remains to linger. But I have the ability to turn into a Light Stone; as long as my soul is still there and there is enough time, I can be reborn again."
"However, before the Void Shadow left the Void World with the secret realm carried by the Light Stone that my soul turned into, it secretly hid in the secret realm. For countless years, I should have recovered my full body, but it has been constantly wearing down my power. If you hadn't arrived, I'm afraid I wouldn't have lasted much longer."
Every time it said a word, Reshiram's figure dimmed a bit, becoming more and more illusory.
"Now, apart from the Void Shadow killed by you, there should be no other existence in this world."
"Afterward, I will turn into a Light Stone and sleep in your brain, repairing my wounds until I wake up again. If there are no other opportunities, it will surely be a very long time."
"But I believe that one day we will meet again."
"At that time, I will swear to sign a contract with you."
"Su Hao, my Truth Hero, I will swear allegiance to you and become the help for you to reach the peak with the blue flames that can burn the world!"
The increasingly illusory Reshiram didn't care; its tone was impassioned, like a bard singing an epic.
"Finally, when you leave, this secret realm will self-destruct to prevent it from becoming a landmark for dark matter to invade this world."
"But after the secret realm self-destructs, there will surely be stubborn negative energy that becomes a fish that slipped through the net...... so, please purify the mist formed by negative energy in this world to absorb negative emotions."
"Also, be sure to pay attention to the condition of the World Tree."
"I believe you can do it, because you are......"
Before it finished speaking, Reshiram's figure disappeared completely and turned into a white Light Stone that settled in Su Hao's brain.
In another blink of an eye, the world of burning blue flames disappeared, and in front of Su Hao were Diancie and Articuno looking at him with worry.
Carrying a complex mood, Su Hao thought silently: "Purify this place...... it just so happens that I have plans, and I will respond to your trust that came from nowhere."
"Reshiram...... from an alien world."
