Chapter 694 It was all Xerneas's mission.
[I made a mistake yesterday, so I had to put the second picture at the back. It probably won't work today either, so I'll have to put the second picture at the back again. Sorry everyone.]
The source of the seven-colored light slowly emerged from the forest.
That was a deer.
A huge, elegant deer, its body radiating a rainbow of colors.
His horns are like branches formed from rainbows, his eyes are like the purest gems, and with every step he takes, flowers bloom beneath his feet.
Zergnas.
The legendary Pokémon of Life.
Xerneas raised his head and looked at Yveltal in the sky.
Then, Xerneas lowered his head slightly, and a pure emerald light emanated from the tip of his horn.
The light drifted toward Yveltal, as gentle as a falling leaf or a spring breeze.
Yveltal did not dodge.
He let the light fall on him.
Then--
The red light in his eyes began to fade.
It folded its wings and slowly landed on the ground.
Xernias stepped forward and gently pressed his forehead against Yveltal's.
In that instant, the entire valley lit up.
It wasn't a blinding light, but a gentle, vibrant light.
The light emanated from the two legendary Pokémon, spreading outwards and covering the entire valley, the distant forest, and everything in sight.
The petrified areas are beginning to recover.
Even Milton, Garchomp, Aggron, and Rapidash felt a warm power flowing into their bodies.
The fatigue is dissipating, and my strength is recovering.
Millerton looked up at the figures in the two beams of light.
I called out softly.
This is what a man should do!
Yveltal raised his head and took one last look at Xerneas.
Then it flapped its wings and took flight.
The black and red light surged out again, but this time there was no aura of destruction.
The light lifted Yveltal's body, sending him higher and higher into the sky, farther and farther away, until he disappeared into the depths of the clouds.
Xerneas stood there, watching it leave.
Then Xerneas turned around and looked at the four humans.
"Thank you all so much for your help."
Xerneas walked up to Li Shuwen and said:
"This is a mark left by Zygarde. It seems you've done him a great favor."
Li Shuwen was somewhat surprised, "With such a commotion yesterday, Xerneas, didn't you feel anything at all?"
Xerneas shook his head. "I don't have Zygarde's powerful perception, if it weren't for the stimulation of Yveltal's power."
"I, who have transformed into a fairy tree, will have to wait several more years before I awaken."
"Since Zigeld left his mark on you, it means you have been of considerable help to the Carlos region."
"Tell me, what do you need me to do for you?"
"Of course, my power is limited, and I cannot fulfill any grand wishes."
Li Shuwen released all of his Pokémon.
"Xerneas, could you please help my Pokémon and Cynthia get some rest? That's all."
"As long as Cynthia and I are healthy, the main focus is on Goodra, Sagamosaurus, Gengar, and Toxicroak."
The reason for taking care of the poison scuttle frog is simply because the poison scuttle frog has no extraordinary talents.
He simply relies on manipulating toxins to enhance his power.
This method is very dangerous, so Li Shuwen hopes that Xernias can improve the vitality of the poison skeletal frog so that it can resist the situation when the poison skeletal frog is out of control.
After Gengar ate Mega Gengar, it got stuck in its current life form. Xerneas, as the source of Mega Evolution, or at least one of the sources, has a good solution to Gengar's problem.
At least it can give Gengar a starting point.
Goodra and SaberGreymon are simply Pokémon from the Green Age, and they are no longer relevant in this new era.
Absorbing Xerneas's power will help them better integrate into this era.
"Oh, right, Cynthia's Green Growlithe also needs Xerneas's help."
Li Shuwen looked at Xerneas, "Sorry, I don't know if this is a bit too much?"
Xerneas shook his head. "No, compared to you helping Zygarde solve the problem, this little thing only requires me to turn back into the Fairy Tree and sleep for a few days."
"Of course, there's something I need your help with too. If you're willing, I can share some more Vitality with your Pokémon."
Li Shuwen looked curious. "What's the matter?"
Xerneas spoke up, "I sense a bottle on you, and the water in that bottle has a good effect on plants."
"There are two ancient trees, one over a thousand years old, to the north and one to the west. I need you to use your aura power to water them."
"I will merge my power with theirs, allowing the power of the waveguide to resonate with them, and guide their spirituality."
Li Shuwen asked curiously, "Why do this? Won't it have some negative impact on the surrounding land?"
Xerneas shook his head. "No, that was just an experiment."
"I am a Pokémon that transformed from a tree into a deer, and I believe that other trees could also transform into Xerneas."
"Perhaps you are the one who can make this a reality."
Li Shuwen nodded. "I understand. I will do my best in this."
"I will do everything in my power!"
Li Shuwen could understand the loneliness that Xerneas felt because he couldn't find anyone like him.
Xerneas chose to transform back into the Fairy Tree in order to combat the loneliness of being the only one in the world.
It's believed that Yveltal's transformation back into the Cocoon of Destruction is partly due to this reason.
"Of course, I can't guarantee success."
"I believe in you. I have waited for thousands of years. As long as there are positive changes, I am willing to wait for thousands more years."
Xerneas nodded, and the large horns on his head began to emit a seven-colored light.
The light enveloped Li Shuwen, Cynthia, and the Pokémon.
Goodra, Samurai, and Arcanine—these three Pokémon from the Green Era—have always felt a bit off.
However, enveloped in Xerneas's light, they felt that their bodies seemed to undergo some subtle changes.
It feels like every cell in your body has regained its freedom and feels exhilarating.
And then there's Gengar, whose body doesn't seem to have changed at all.
But the inner vitality finally blended into a perfect harmony.
Next time Gengar undergoes Mega Evolution, it won't get stuck and unable to revert to its previous form.
Then there's the Poison Skull Frog, whose vitality was directly doubled by Xerneas.
In terms of total volume, this increase is not significant.
But for the Poison Skull Frog, this has already enabled it to catch up with the Staff-tailed Armored Dragon.
He finally caught up with Kommo-o and the Abandoned Monkey, just as Betsuka had caught up with Sasge and Naruto.
However, the person who gave Xerneas the most vitality was Li Shuwen.
Since ancient times, many human kings have tried to obtain Xerneas's power in order to achieve immortality.
But they all failed.
Most of the time, Xerneas doesn't give them any power.
However, there are exceptions; when Xerneas gets impatient with being pestered, he will occasionally share some of his power.
The result was that a new tree appeared in the Carlos area.
The power of Xerneas is something most people couldn't withstand.
Xerneas's eyes were filled with surprise; he had originally thought that Li Shuwen's power could help him.
But unexpectedly, Li Shuwen was able to absorb so much of his power.
It seems that the chances of those two trees transforming into Xerneas have increased considerably.
Xerneas was very happy to share his power with Li Shuwen.
After absorbing the information for a while, Li Shuwen noticed that Xerneas was still releasing water, and immediately realized that something was wrong.
If this continues, Xerneas will never be able to repay his debt of gratitude.
Li Shuwen stopped voluntarily, saying, "Thank you, I've absorbed enough. If I continue, my body won't be able to handle it."
"I'm afraid I'll have to turn into a tree."
Xerneas blinked. "Little brother, what are you pretending for?"
This is nothing!
That little bit of energy wasn't even enough to fill one-tenth of Li Shuwen's capacity.
But Xerneas didn't say anything more, turned around and walked into the forest, disappearing in a rainbow of light.
Li Shuwen said, "I have to go to Biyi City and Xiangxun City. In the meantime, I'll have to trouble Daigo to take care of Diancie."
Daigo's face flushed with excitement. "I promise I'll complete the mission! I'll absolutely give it my all to take good care of her!"
Cynthia asked curiously, "What did you and Xerneas talk about just now? Why did you go to these two cities?"
Li Shuwen explained briefly, "It was all Xerneas's mission."
