Full-Time Mage: Starting with Gengar, selected for the National Tournament

Chapter 158 Zernias Ipeltar

After some investigation.

Chu Ming roughly understood the difference between Xerneas, which had revived ahead of schedule, and a true divine beast.

It's the difference between the growth stage and the complete stage.

Just like Rayquaza and Kyogre, which he contracted.

You also need to start from the beginner level and slowly level up.

Although they are mythical beasts.

However, it won't be at max level and fully evolved right away.

to be honest.

All the mythical beasts.

It is impossible to reach true perfection without centuries of accumulation and growth.

However, someone like Xerneas, if he doesn't reach the complete form, cannot share in eternal life.

However, for Chu Ming...

It doesn't matter anymore.

It's enough for now, at least for the time being.

Anyway, he has so many divine beasts that nourish his life force.

Add the bloodline of dragons.

He is no longer purely human.

His level of existence has long surpassed the upper limit of human lifespan.

Those bat vampires can live for thousands of years.

He was a descendant of dragons.

And the future is still very long.

Living for over a thousand years would be absolutely no problem.

A thousand years from now.

Once Xerneas is fully mature and completely rejuvenated, he will gain eternal life.

"However, since Xerneas can obtain it by exchanging for Seeds of Life..."

Chu Ming's mind raced.

He checked the system's Pokémon database and found the legendary Pokémon that was the opposite of Xerneas.

-

Cocoon of Destruction (Yveltal)

Description: A legendary Pokémon that governs death and destruction. When its wings and tail feathers glow red, it unleashes destructive power, absorbing the life force of all living beings. At the end of its lifespan, it absorbs all the life force of all living beings and returns to its cocoon form.

[Unable to redeem]

-

"A Pokémon that governs death and destruction...can't be redeemed..."

Chu Ming stroked his chin.

This result is not surprising.

After all, the powers of life, death, destruction, and so on are all the highest-level authority, so it's normal that they are difficult to obtain.

He was particularly lucky this time.

They entered a sealed-off eternal town.

We have obtained this special resource.

It just so happened to meet the conditions for reviving the Seed of Life, and was then detected by the system, allowing it to be redeemed.

All I can say is that the opportunity just happened to come.

As for the opportunity to create the Cocoon of Destruction, it will probably have to wait until one day when it enters some extinct land.

……

After some searching.

Jiang Shaoxu found Li Fanhua and returned to Chu Ming's side with a big smile.

Others in the small town also reaped their own rewards.

"We've seen enough, it's time for us to head back."

Ai Jiangtu looked at everyone and asked.

The town isn't considered big.

Almost everything of value has been searched.

There's no point in staying any longer.

Thus, under the leadership of Chu Ming and Nan Jue.

Everyone prepared to return home.

Leave this ruined town.

However, just as everyone stepped out of the town's restricted area...

High in the black hurricane-filled sky above the small town, a pair of yellow eyes suddenly appeared, looking down at the crowd.

"Um?"

Chu Ming raised an eyebrow and turned to look.

In an instant, the yellow eyes disappeared.

"Gengar, did you see that just now?"

Chu Ming wondered to himself.

Heh heh!

Gengar answered from within the shadows.

As the owner's starter Pokémon, it also serves as their personal bodyguard.

He and Chu Ming were kindred spirits.

The moment Chu Ming sensed something was wrong.

It immediately sensed the source and discovered... a pair of yellow eyes in the sky.

"Yellow eyes...a yellow lightning restriction within a black storm?"

Upon hearing Gengar's description, Chu Ming murmured to himself.

He couldn't help but wonder.

Could it be... a backup plan from the master of the restriction?

A short while later.

Everyone was completely freed from the yellow lightning barrier.

They have moved out of the storm's reach.

Chu Ming took one last look at the sky above the storm.

Since there are no hidden mechanisms.

He couldn't be bothered to care anymore.

Everyone started to return the way they came.

The stone elemental creatures that traversed the Gobi Valley were already quite adept at it.

Nothing unexpected happened.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Back to Hammite.

Chu Ming immediately contacted Lingling, the "Little Helper".

He also told her about the ruins town and the water of time.

In the meantime, I took a hot shower.

Lingling then called back.

"That stuff is extraordinary; it's an extremely ancient potion called the Elixir of Time!"

"My grandfather's library actually has a record of this, but unfortunately, it doesn't explain its specific use. It only has a name and a general origin. It is made by stirring and refining an ancient herb. The process is extremely complicated and has been lost for centuries."

"However, based on my speculation, it can have some effects similar to changing the passage of time, such as accelerating the growth of certain plants or keeping women eternally young..."

Regarding this answer...

Chu Ming was not surprised.

After all, he already knew that this potion could bring Xerneas back to health ahead of schedule.

Its effects are obvious.

"Have you found any information about those yellow eyes?" Chu Ming asked again.

"Not at the moment, but based on my years of hunting experience, it might be related to local legends about ruins..." Lingling said in a mature and sophisticated manner.

……

The group rested briefly in Hammi City.

They then proceeded directly to the Peruvian national pavilion, the Royal Felipe Castle.

First, we flew to Lima.

After getting off the plane, we took a car and went straight to the Royal Felipe Castle on the Callao coast.

Royal Felipe Castle is located by the sea.

The entire castle is shaped like a pentagram, surrounded by thick walls, with a large castle at the very innermost part.

Peru is like Japan.

They are frequently harassed by sirens.

Besides serving as the national pavilion, Royal Felipe Castle also...

It also serves as the command and strategic center for the entire west coast of Peru.

Half an hour later.

Arriving at Royal Felipe Castle

The group revealed their identities.

A dark-skinned man approached and smiled, saying, "Hello, I am the royal mage here... It's a pleasure to have you in Peru."

"Hello, we now want to take on the National Pavilion Challenge to obtain the National Pavilion Chapter," Ai Jiangtu said, getting straight to the point.

"Would you like to take a break first?"

"No need, we came after we had rested," Ai Jiangtu said.

Please come with me.

Soon, led by the guards, the group arrived at the grand competition square inside the castle.

After activating the barrier.

The entire competition square was then separated by a water curtain.

The Peruvian team arrived shortly afterward; there were nine of them in total.

The competition was very simple.

Each side selects three players to compete in a team battle.

Peru's overall strength is only so-so.

None of the three assigned were high-ranking.

Although he has some innate talent, he also has the blessing of a good spiritual seed.

But the difference lies in their cultivation level.

This made the entire competition completely predictable.

The National Government team won easily.

The Chapter of Challenge has been obtained.

"You are indeed very strong, but could you stay a little longer? We would like to have more opportunities to spar with you," the royal mage earnestly requested.

"Yes, we also need some training."

After thinking about it, Ai Jiangtu agreed to the request.

Each of them is very strong individually.

However, there is a lack of teamwork and coordination.

Currently, it's still not enough.

However, just as the match was about to begin...

A cold-faced man in military uniform walked out, leading about five or six military mages, and headed straight for Chu Ming and the rest of the National Guard team.
