However, after some psychological struggle, Gongsun Yan still walked into the light gate. Now there was only one way in front of him. Anyway, he was skilled and brave, and no danger could put him to death, so he walked in confidently.
After a fluctuation, Gongsun Yan appeared in the empty tomb. All he saw was a coffin and a short square table. Apart from that, there was nothing else. It did not match Xue's identity at all. It was too simple.
"Huh~, long time no see." Looking at the coffin in front of him, Gongsun Yan's emotions were constantly churning, and in the end he could only say "long time no see".
Afterwards, Gongsun Yan did not rush to open the wooden box on the table. Instead, he took out an offering table from his backpack and carefully placed it in front of the coffin to ensure that there was no deviation. He then took out the three standard configurations of sacrifice, incense burners, candle sticks and offerings, and also placed them neatly on the offering table.
"Alas, there is no custom of sacrificial offerings here. I'm sure you miss this set of configuration too. This is specially customized by me. It is definitely the only one in the world." Gongsun Yan said as he took out three incense sticks from his arms, lit them, bowed three times, and respectfully inserted them into the incense burner.
The unknown totems on the walls of the tomb awakened when Gongsun Yan entered the ruins. It was they who brought Gongsun Yan into the tomb, otherwise the traps in the ruins would not be easy to deal with. But now they are a little at a loss. Gongsun Yan's behavior after he came in made them confused.
After finishing all this, Gongsun Yan did not stop and continued to take things out of his backpack. He placed a copper basin upright in front of the altar. Gongsun Yan immediately sat on the ground and took out a handful of yellow paper from his backpack. He placed half of it in the copper basin and cut the other half into small strips.
"Oh~Oh~...Pa!" Gongsun Yan stood up after lighting the paper money. Just as he was about to start crying and scatter the paper money, a slap came from behind, interrupting all the emotions that Gongsun Yan had been brewing.
"I thought you would do something after you came here. I left some soul fragments here. If you have something to say, tell me quickly. If not, get out!" Xue said to Gongsun Yan with an angry face.
"I knew you would leave something behind. It's been a long time since we last met!" Gongsun Yan got up from the ground as if nothing had happened, and said with a smile on his face as he looked at the slightly unreal Xue in front of him.
"Get away. You won't even let me rest in peace after death. How could I want to be friends with someone like you? I was so blind at the beginning!" Xue curled her lips with disdain.
"Okay, be serious. This little piece of soul fragment of yours won't last long. Arceus is about to wake up after being betrayed by humans. Do you have any props or something that can calm him down?" Gongsun Yan changed his previous frivolous look and said seriously.
"You should have said it earlier. There is a legendary stone tablet in that box. It was given to me by Arceus. It contains a part of the energy of all the stone tablets. It will definitely be useful." Xue pointed to the small wooden box on the square table and said.
Extra: Gather together and prepare for team battle
"Okay, I understand. I will return it after I'm done using it, as long as Arceus is willing to give it to me." Gongsun Yan nodded and said a little embarrassedly.
"No need. I won't be using these things anyway. There are some mega stones in there too. You can use them." Xue said nonchalantly.
"No way. How can I do without some burial objects? I will come back every year to burn paper for you." Gongsun Yan opened the wooden box on the table, picked up the legendary stone slab on it, and then covered the box without even looking at the precious mega stones.
"Get out of here! If you dare to disturb my peace again, don't blame me for being rude. Unknown Totem, throw him out!" Xue roared angrily and commanded the unknown totems around him to throw Gongsun Yan into a light gate.
"Hey, that's too rude. Hey, nice to meet you, goodbye!" Gongsun Yan struggled as hard as he could before being thrown into the light gate, and finally said his farewell words before leaving.
"Nice to meet you, goodbye." Xue murmured as she watched the light door gradually closing in front of her.
Then she began to dissipate from her feet. She was a remnant soul that had briefly gained substance thanks to the magical power of an unknown totem. Now that her remnant soul was about to be exhausted, the last trace of her left in the world would be erased.
She took a final look at the "masterpieces" left behind by Gongsun Yan, and after a twitch in the corners of her mouth, she still did not let the Unknown Totem throw these things away. In fact, she missed this set quite a bit. She hadn't seen it for so many years, and it just seemed a little strange to have them placed in front of her tomb.
..........................................................................................
"Hiss, my butt hurts so much. This guy is dead, but he still has such a bad temper. How did he get married back then?" Gongsun Yan got up from the ground, rubbing his butt and cursing. As a result, looking at Xiaozhi and others who were trying not to laugh in front of him, Gongsun Yan was petrified.
"Ahem, let's hurry to the place where Arceus landed. Everything is ready, only the east wind is missing." Gongsun Yan coughed dryly to ease the awkward situation and tried to divert everyone's attention to what was going to happen next.
"...Xiao Yan is right, let's go quickly." Xiao Gang had good patience. He forced himself to suppress the smile on his face and walked towards the depths of the temple with Xiaozhi and Xiaoguang, who had poor expression control.
Seeing this, everyone followed. Gongsun Yan, who had just died socially, also followed without saying a word. He now hoped that no one would notice his existence. What happened just now was really too embarrassing.
The group came to a platform deep in the temple. Arceus would soon descend on this platform and destroy the humans who dared to betray him.
Everyone waited on the platform for a while, and the space in the air suddenly began to tremble. A powerful pressure swept over everyone, and everyone found it difficult to breathe for a while. Fortunately, Dialga and Palkia stood in front of everyone and endured the pressure.
But in fact, both Gongsun Yan and Xiaozhi were able to withstand this pressure. After all, there were quite a few divine beasts around them, and they were already accustomed to pressure. They were just caught off guard just now and would be able to adapt quickly.
"Bang!" The originally trembling space suddenly exploded, and Arceus with bloodshot eyes slowly walked out from it. Every step he took was as heavy as a thousand pounds, making the surrounding space unstable.
"Ahem, Dormammu, I'm here... No, Arceus, we're here to explain. The truth of what happened all those years ago is... Damn it! Run! It's the Sanction of the Light Gravel!"
Gongsun Yan was originally preparing to come up and start talking nonsense, but Arceus did not follow the routine. When he saw so many people appear in front of him, he fired a ray of punishment light at them. Seeing this, Gongsun Yan could only roar at everyone to get out of the way.
Because Arceus changed his attitude so quickly, no one had time to dodge, and Gongsun Yan, Xiaozhi, and Xiaogang had no choice but to use their magical skill, "Teleport" again, and escape with Xiaoguang, Hina, and Cobin. Palkia and Dialga jumped in front of everyone.
"Boom!"
Arceus is worthy of being Arceus. With a single shot of punishment light gravel, he knocked Palkia and Dialga onto the cliff. For a moment, they didn't even have the strength to stand up.
"Roar!"
At this moment, the space around Arceus suddenly trembled, and a huge dragon claw hit Arceus, but Arceus just slightly turned his body to avoid the attack, and with a burst of magical power, he knocked the attacker away.
The sneak attacker was actually the overlord of the reversed world, Giratina. He hid in the reversed space and silently watched the battle situation. When he felt there was an opportunity, he decisively launched a sneak attack. However, Arceus easily dodged it and even sent a magical power to Giratina.
At this time, Palkia and Dialga also successfully recovered, and their two exclusive moves, Arcane Slash and Time Roar, immediately burst out in an attempt to deal a heavy blow to Arceus.
The timing of these two mythical beasts was indeed very accurate. Arceus had just knocked Giratina away, and there was no time to dodge these two moves. However, Arceus did not need to dodge. Suddenly, a pink slate appeared on Arceus' body, and this pink slate dyed the rings and patterns on his body pink.
The powerful Sub-Void Slash and Time Roar had no effect on Arceus. They only pushed Arceus back a few steps, without causing any damage.
“My goodness, the Arceus here is not the one with only sixteen full stone slabs, but the complete Arceus with eighteen full stone slabs? There are both ordinary stone slabs and fairy stone slabs, how the hell can I beat him?” Gongsun Yan looked at Arceus who was beating the three mythical beasts and felt that life had played a joke on him.
"Xiaozhi, quickly release the Pokémon to help. These three legendary beasts can't stop Arceus who has thirteen stone tablets. The dragon-type ones are defeated by a fairy-type stone tablet! By the way, open the shield for everyone!" Gongsun Yan turned and shouted to Xiaozhi. During this time, they have brought everyone to a safe place.
"Okay, Suicune, Ho-Oh, Solgaleo, come out and help Dialga and the others! Also, the wave is in my heart!" After hearing what Gongsun Yan said, Xiaozhi threw out three Poké Balls, took out a walking stick from his backpack, and stuck it on the ground in front of him.
As Xiaozhi chanted a mantra, the waveguide on his body became wider due to the amplification of the staff, and finally formed a huge protective shield that enveloped everyone.
Extra 1: The best of the show: Xiaozhi?
The wave shield was affected by the aftermath of Arceus's Punishment Light Gravel, but Xiaozhi, as the Wave Warrior, was able to block it without any effort, which was totally unhuman.
"This isn't a solution. I can only block the aftermath. If Arceus really attacks with all his strength, my protective shield will be broken in a moment." Xiaozhi shouted to Gongsun Yan while holding his cane.
"It's very simple. Rayquaza, the finishing touch! Mewtwo, mega evolution! Kyogre and Groudon, return to their original form!" Gongsun Yan smiled at Xiaozhi and gave decisive orders to the Pokémon he had released.
After hearing Gongsun Yan's order, Rayquaza flew into the sky, condensed a large amount of flying energy, and fell straight down towards Arceus; a strange energy suddenly erupted from Mewtwo's body, and it entered the mega evolution state on its own. Then, a Super Mewtwo Y with a big tail behind its head and a slender body appeared in front of everyone, and it shot towards Arceus with a telekinetic blast.
Kyogre and Groudon roared to the sky, and a large amount of natural energy gushed out from their bodies. Mysterious patterns immediately covered their entire bodies. Kyogre and Groudon, who had returned to their original state, appeared in front of everyone. Although their stature was considered short among their peers, their majesty was not diminished at all. The Root Wave and Cliff Sword moves were also condensed in an instant.
"Palkia, hold Arceus for me, even for one second!" Gongsun Yan looked at the Pokémon that were ready to attack, and shouted to Palkia who was barely crawling up. After all, there would be no point if he couldn't hit him.
"Roar!" After hearing what Gongsun Yan said, Palkia also roared to the sky and tried his best to control the space around Arceus, trying to restrict Arceus' movements.
Although Arceus quickly broke the limitation of the space around him, in this short period of time, Arceus had no time to dodge the attacks from all directions. For a while, he could only change the stone slabs on his body to reduce the damage.
However, Gongsun Yan has Mewtwo, who is far more powerful than Gongsun Yan and is more like a trainer bug than Gongsun Yan. Under his command, the attacks of all the Pokémon hit Arceus almost at the same time.
But Arceus is worthy of being Arceus. In the short period of time when the attack was imminent, he switched two stone slabs continuously, invalidating the moves of Rayquaza and Mega Mewtwo Y. However, the attacks of Groudon and Kyogre actually hit Arceus, and Arceus fell on the grass beside him in pain.
Seeing that the attack was effective, the morale of the people was boosted. They were not afraid of how difficult it was, but they were afraid that no matter how hard they tried, there would be no reward. In reality, Arceus could become immune to any moves of that attribute by simply converting it to the attributes of any stone slab. It was really too powerful.
However, even if Arceus had time to convert the third stone tablet, it would be useless. He had already fused the five stone tablets of ground, water, grass, lightning and dragon into the gem of life. A skilled cook cannot cook without rice, and there is no way without this stone tablet.
"Okay, everyone, just keep fighting with this momentum. Xiaozhi, have Ho-Oh use Sacred Fire, Solgaleo use Meteor Dash, and Suicune and Entei will protect everyone." Gongsun Yan turned to Xiaozhi and said.
"Understood. Ho-Oh, Solgaleo, follow Mewtwo's command and attack Arceus together!" Xiaozhi excitedly gave the order to Ho-Oh and Solgaleo in the air.
Now the situation on the scene has become very clear. Under the command of Mewtwo, the divine beasts began to inhumanely torture Arceus, with various exclusive moves emerging one after another.
The most outstanding among them are the two siblings Latias and Latios. Yes, the two siblings finally arrived at the battlefield, and entered the mega evolution state with the help of Gongsun Yan and Xiaozhi. With their extremely high mobility, they constantly interfered around Arceus. As long as Arceus did not use the psychic slate, they would directly hit him with a mist ball or clean luster, without charging, they were so unscrupulous.
Although Arceus is the strongest mythical beast, he is classified as a super mythical beast by Gongsun Yan. Besides Arceus, Hoopa is the only one in this category, so Hoopa must be punished.
But don't forget that Arceus had just woken up from his deep sleep, and his condition had not yet returned to its peak. Five of the stone slabs that were the source of his life were missing, and his strength was only one tenth of what it was. Facing a group attack from so many mythical beasts, he could only swallow his anger.
However, Gongsun Yan did not feel very happy about this. On the contrary, after this concentrated fire, he had a deeper understanding of Arceus's strength and felt a little bit of fear, because this Arceus was most likely the one that used to follow Xue, and that Arceus was just a clone of the real Arceus.
Even this clone that was missing part of the stone slab and whose physical condition had not yet fully recovered could hold out against so many Pokémon for such a long time. This shows how powerful the real Arceus is. He is worthy of being the great existence who sent his clones to guard many Pokémon worlds.
However, one thing was beyond everyone's expectations. The one who gave Arceus the final move was not the opportunistic siblings Latias and Latios, nor was it Kyogre and Groudon who were unable to be immune to the corresponding damage because Arceus had lost the corresponding stone tablets, nor was it Mewtwo who was in charge of the whole game, but Ash, the trainer who was in charge of the rear.
Yes, you heard it right, it was the trainer Xiaozhi who got Arceus' head. Everyone present was shocked by this miraculous development. Even Xiaozhi, the instigator, couldn't believe it.
To put it simply, Ash, the trainer sitting in the back, watched the Pokémon fighting in the front, and he felt itchy. After looking at Pikachu, he decisively ran out of the protective shield. Anyway, the wave power left in his staff was enough to support the protective shield for a while.
Xiaozhi and Pikachu arrived at the battlefield in two steps and immediately launched an attack on Arceus. First, Pikachu's 100,000-volt shot caught Arceus, who was already exhausted, off guard, followed by the wave missile condensed by Xiaozhi.
Arceus, who had not been hurt by any fighting moves from beginning to end, obviously did not react in time and was hit by the wave missile. This wave missile was obviously the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the invincible Arceus fell.
Extra: Silly Arceus
After Xiaozhi knocked down Arceus, the battlefield suddenly fell into silence. None of the divine beasts could react to the fact that their heads had been stolen. Even Xiaozhi, the one who did it, could not react.
"Ahem, Arceus, I'm here to make sense." At this time, Gongsun Yan slowly walked out of the protective shield and began to continue what he had not finished saying before to Arceus who was lying on the ground.
I have to say, it feels really good to talk to your opponent after knocking him to the ground. At least Arceus didn't have the ability to stand up and hit Gongsun Yan, so Gongsun Yan could say everything he wanted to say.
However, no matter what Gongsun Yan said, Arceus refused to believe it. Because Arceus could speak, Gongsun Yan and Arceus even started arguing. Unfortunately, Gongsun Yan actually lost the argument and was speechless by Arceus. After all, he had no evidence at all and his words were just empty talk.
"Okay, I'll get you evidence right away!" Gongsun Yan got up from the ground angrily. He could not help but kneel down because what Arceus said was so reasonable. After he came to his senses, he could only get up dejectedly.
"Dialga, open the space-time channel, I want to prove it to this guy!" Gongsun Yan shouted to Dialga who was watching the show on the side.
Dialga found that he was affected by the show he was watching, and he was very depressed, so he opened a time and space channel. It was not that he wanted to listen to Gongsun Yan, but because although they could defeat Arceus together, Arceus was immortal, and he would wake up again one day, and then no one would be able to stop him from destroying mankind.
He, Palkia, and Giratina had followed Snow for many years and had never been betrayed by humans, so they did not want humans to be exterminated in this way. Although they were sure that there was something fishy going on back then, they had no evidence, and even if they had evidence, they could not convince the furious Arceus. The three of them were not even a dish in front of Arceus.
"Arceus, when I come back, I will bring you evidence. Although there are many villains among humans, there are also many people who value friendship and loyalty. Damos is such a person. You must remember that your eyes will deceive you, but the truth will not." Gongsun Yan said to Arceus.
"Even if you don't believe me, you have to believe Xue. Trust me once, you won't be wrong." Gongsun Yan took out the legendary stone tablet he got from Xue from his arms, threw it on Arceus, turned around and walked towards the location of the time and space channel.
Arceus looked at the legendary stone tablet on his body. This was something that his original body gave to that girl a long, long time ago. When the girl left, he took the initiative to leave this stone tablet to the girl. Now seeing this stone tablet again, his heart is full of memories.
Arceus struggled to stand up and integrated the legendary stone tablet that had been gone for many years into his body. A feeling of perfection arose spontaneously. The legendary stone tablet was the embodiment of the power of all stone tablets. As long as He had a thought, the corresponding attributes would appear on His body.
Feeling the long-lost sense of power in his body, Arceus suddenly felt that the bright and elegant girl appeared before his eyes again, but that was many years ago.
Watching Gongsun Yan walking into the space-time channel, Arceus suddenly believed what Gongsun Yan had said before. Maybe he was not betrayed at the time, at least he was not betrayed by someone he recognized.
"Ahem, Arceus, could you please give me a piece of stone tablet? This will make it easier for me to get your trust. Otherwise, things will be a bit troublesome." Gongsun Yan, who had already gone far away, suddenly turned back and asked Arceus for a piece of stone tablet as a token of trust with an embarrassed look on his face.
"..." Arceus looked at the shameless Gongsun Yan in front of him, and suddenly felt that his previous feelings of gratitude were a bit redundant. It seemed that he still had to consider whether such a guy was worthy of trust.
However, although Arceus was feeling a little annoyed inside, he still took off a piece of stone tablet from his body and handed it to Gongsun Yan. Gongsun Yan looked at the clean white stone tablet in his hand and felt that his trip was safe. With this clean white stone tablet representing Arceus's lineage, there was no need to worry about not being able to gain the trust of Arceus!
"As for you guys, you'd better stay here. I will go alone." Gongsun Yan glanced at Xiaozhi and others who were about to follow, and stopped them with a headache.
"Don't say so much. If we go together, we'll be too conspicuous. It's easier for me to act alone. Xiaozhi, you just need to talk back to Arceus. Maybe you can convince him directly. By the way, this is the Poké Ball of Smelly. Just let Arceus chat with him. They should have a lot of common topics."
Gongsun Yan threw the Poké Ball of Slimy to Xiaozhi. The relationship between him and Arceus should be more harmonious, after all, there is Xue's relationship in it. Then he called Latios, who was flying around, and took him and Serpentar, the two Pokémon, into the space-time channel.
After a series of bizarre experiences, Gongsun Yan successfully landed in a town. At this time, the town was in silence. A very rare solar eclipse was falling over Midina, as if welcoming the arrival of Arceus.
"Well, this time point is just right. There is no need to waste so much time in the past. We can just solve the problem here." Gongsun Yan is very satisfied with this time point. After all, he knows who the culprit is, and there is no need to play detective.
At this moment, a passage suddenly opened up in the sky, and Arceus flew out of it and flew towards the temple on the mountainside without any intention of stopping.
"My goodness, this Arceus is a bit stupid. I was holding the Slate of Purity in my hand, but he didn't react. I suddenly understand why he was seriously injured and fell into a deep sleep. It seems that he brought this upon himself!"
Gongsun Yan glanced at the Clearance Slate in his hand. If he had not seen with his own eyes Arceus separate the slate from his body, he might have thought that he had been cheated and got a fake.
"Forget it, Latios, take me there quickly, otherwise this guy will inevitably be beaten up." Gongsun Yan glanced at Arceus who walked into the temple obediently, released Latios with a frown, turned over and sat on him.
Remember the extra chapter 1!
Gongsun Yan had just flown into the temple on Latios. When he looked up, he saw Chang Wei fighting... er, no, it was a group of Pokémon attacking Arceus. The strong electric current made it difficult for Gongsun Yan to get close.
"Latios, go grab the staff from that man, use the Serpentine and Crazy Plant combo to build a protective layer around Arceus!" Gongsun Yan threw out the only Poké Ball on his waist and gave the order to Latios.
"Woo!"
After Serpentier broke free from the Poké Ball, it slapped its tail on the ground. Thick plants lifted up the floor of the temple one after another. When they spread to Arceus, they began to gather upwards and protected Arceus.
Electric shocks from all directions hit the protective shield formed by the crazy plants. These electric shocks were enough to temporarily paralyze Arceus' body, but when they hit the protective shield, they did not cause even a ripple.
There are two main reasons for this situation. One is that the essence of crazy plants is that they are plants grown from the ground. When lightning strikes them, most of the current will be conducted into the earth.
The second reason is that although the combined power of these electric shocks is very high, they are released by different Pokémon after all, and the power of a single one is actually not worth mentioning. The Crazy Plant combo released by Serpentine is not just Crazy Plants. The surface of each plant is covered with reflective walls and light walls, which can greatly reduce the power of attacks on it.
In fact, if these electric shocks could be integrated together, let alone the light wall and the reflection wall, even if the monarch snake covered the crazy plants with protective moves, it would be useless and would be completely defeated in an instant.
However, these Pokémon cannot even have enough tacit understanding to combine their moves. They are themselves controlled by Chisin with shackles. Even if they dare not resist Chisin's orders, it is impossible for them to carry out his orders conscientiously, let alone combine their moves which require qualified tacit understanding.
"What's going on!" This sentence was not said by Damos who was controlled by Qi Xin, but by Qi Xin, the culprit. He was standing on a high platform and overlooking everything that happened. He used to enjoy the feeling of manipulating everything behind the scenes, but when things went beyond his expectations, he was like a child whose favorite toy was taken away, so angry, so... scared.
"Bang!" Just as Qi Xin was helpless and furious, Damos, who was standing there on the ground, waiting for Qi Xin to give the next order, seemed to be hit by something. His body fell straight forward, and the scepter in his hand flew into the air.
"Bronze Bell, bring the scepter here!" Seeing this scene, Qi Xin immediately gave an order to the Bronze Bell beside him. All he did was to obtain the jade of life in the scepter. Now things have exceeded his expectations, and he must hold the jade of life in his hands.
"Buzz~" After hearing Qi Xin's order, the bronze bell's eyes glowed with blue light, and the falling scepter stopped and began to fly upwards.
Seeing this scene, Chisin's face began to show a ferocious expression. Even if his action today failed, as long as the jade of life was still in his hands, he would have the confidence to make a comeback. He also gave his behavior a high-sounding name, saying that he had to do this for the eternal prosperity of Mitina.
However, Qi Xin was obviously overthinking it. The scepter just floated up a short distance and then stopped. No matter how the bronze bell increased the output of mental power, the scepter refused to rise at all and floated strangely in the air.
"You useless piece of shit! You..." When Qi Xin saw that the scepter did not continue to fly up, he thought that the bronze bell was resisting him. His face darkened and he was about to continue insulting the bronze bell, but at this time a young man walked out of the passage and diverted his attention. He suddenly had a feeling that the reason why the situation turned out like this was inseparable from the other party.
