Elf: Start with small diamonds, then mutate into Diancie!

Su Hao's gaze fell upon the most prominent peak in the Himalayas.

Snow-capped peaks are like blades, glaciers like ribbons.

The peaks rise amidst the sea of ​​clouds, but Mount Everest, with its imposing presence as the world's highest peak, stands on the other side of the sky.

What should have been a magnificent sight became chilling due to the swirling, dark haze.

Sakaki and his group had arrived ahead of time. On that pitch-black peak, completely swallowed by darkness, some indescribable terror was brewing.

Rahiram frowned deeply, a sense of foreboding constantly assaulting its mind.

—Because it looks so familiar.

They quickly flew to the vicinity of the summit. For humans, Mount Everest requires perseverance, preparation, and luck to climb successfully, but for all the legendary elves present, it was an easy journey that could be reached with just a flap of their wings.

As Zigeld looked down at the darkened peak before him, he said in a deep voice, "What an ominous aura."

Based on what Giovanni said about the "World Tree Secret Realm," could it be that the foundation of this planet, or even the world, had already been invaded without their knowledge?

Compared to the legendary elves' varying reactions, Su Hao's focus was on another aspect.

"How is the Crowned Queen...?"

He remembered it clearly: the Lady Crown King was located at the Tree of Beginning.

Now, this place has become a suspected enemy base, which is not good news.

Su Hao's biggest worry was that the Crane Crown, Snowstorm Horse, and Spirit Horse suffered the same fate as Cresselia and Darkrai.

"Humph!"

Kyurem exhaled a blast of cold air from its nostrils, sending a chill down Su Hao's spine.

Facing Su Hao's gaze, Kyurem grinned and said, "That green hat has become much smarter since that incident. Since it went there on its own initiative, it certainly won't let itself be sacrificed for no reason."

"Stop worrying about it."

"......Too."

Su Hao nodded slightly, turned his gaze forward, and stopped dwelling on the matter.

His gaze fell forward, where Sakaki stood with his back to them, the Jar of Punishment silently suspended in the air.

The voice, like that of a bard, echoed between heaven and earth.

“Sadness, lamentation, jealousy, anger and hatred—these negative emotions influence life’s choices. When they accumulate to a certain degree, the string called reason will snap.”

"But who could know that the power contained in such base emotions could easily overturn the heavens and the earth?"

"This possibility is truly fascinating... That's why I partnered with Him."

Sakaki slowly turned around, seemingly enjoying the moment of laying everything bare.

"Next, you have two choices."

"Use all your strength to show me your weakness and experience the feeling of helplessness."

"Or simply watch helplessly as the foundation of the world crumbles, witnessing the moment when the two worlds meet."

It was as if it were echoing Sakaki's words.

At the summit of Mount Everest, where the biting wind howls, a low and persistent humming sound suddenly emerges at a certain moment, in addition to the sound of the wind.

Having already accumulated considerable experience in this area, Su Hao immediately identified the source of the sound.

—That is the sound produced at the moment when the secret realm descends into reality, when space overlaps with space, and reality with the secret realm; it is the distortion and wailing of space.

Time and space seemed to have become displaced, and a dazzling luster suddenly burst forth at the summit of Mount Everest, a "no-man's-land" where even plants should not exist.

The snow-capped peak, which had been covered in snow all year round, had long since faded in the ripples of space. With countless emerald green leaves unfurling, the outline of the giant tree that stretched from heaven to earth gradually became clear in the void.

—That was the crystal life form called the Tree of the Beginning of the World, which Su Hao had been searching for for a long time, and which Little Dream could not sense in its exact location.

Through Mount Everest, the roots of the primordial tree of the world, which almost obscures the sky, are deeply embedded in the core of the planet, indicating how closely it is connected to the world.

But beneath this sacred Tree of Life, a thick, dark red energy, resembling a swamp, surged, its shape like a giant serpent, gnawing and eroding the roots of the Tree of Origin.

The golden light protecting the Tree of Origin flickered, as if it would collapse completely with just a strong gust of wind.

Furthermore, Su Hao looked up along the path of the light and saw that beneath the canopy that seemed to support the sky, at the center of the trunk of the Tree of Origin, a frozen ice crystal was quietly hanging there.

Within the ice crystal, the King of Abundance and his two beloved horses had their eyes closed, as if they were fast asleep.

For some reason, Su Hao's heart suddenly clenched.

At that moment, Sakaki's voice rang out leisurely.

"To prevent the last fortress from being eroded, the noble King of Abundance and his beloved horse have been guarding this place alone for tens of thousands of years."

"Even I can't help but feel a sense of admiration for them."

"But its protection has come to a complete end today. With its stored power of faith exhausted, it will be completely devoured along with the Tree of the Beginning of the World."

Giovanni gave Dark Mewtwo X a look, and it expressionlessly raised its hand, throwing all the "negative emotions" it had collected along the way into the surging dark red energy.

As these "negative emotions" were added, the dark red energy became increasingly concentrated, eventually turning into a state of black with a hint of red.

In Su Hao's suddenly contracting pupils, the golden radiance reflected within, which was the pure power of faith, completely collapsed, and spiderweb-like patterns instantly spread across every part of the radiance.

"Snap—"

With a crisp crack, the last line of defense of the Tree of Beginning vanished completely.

But the surging energy did not press its advantage; instead, it began to recede, gradually transforming into the appearance of an extremely ordinary-looking middle-aged man.

Neither Su Hao nor Sakaki regarded the other as an ordinary human being.

As if he had finally enjoyed a long-awaited meal, the man's voice even took on a slight upward inflection.

At the same time, He looked up at Su Hao and the many legendary elves behind Su Hao, and slowly said: "Hello, savior chosen by Arceus, I am Creator, the founder of the Nova Organization that you are familiar with."

"If I just introduce myself like this, you might feel confused and puzzled, after all, I have never shown my face, and neither you nor I have ever met."

"Then let me put it another way."

The man's lips curled into a strange smile as he uttered words that sent a chill down the spine of Reshiram, who was standing next to Su Hao.

"—You may also recognize me as the will of dark matter."

------------

Chapter 1552 I am the Nemesis of Darkness!

Chuangxing's words resounded like a muffled thunderclap in the sky above Mount Everest.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

He actually claimed to be the will of dark matter?

A wary expression appeared on the faces of the legendary elves.

What a joke! In that great war tens of thousands of years ago, Arceus did indeed banish the dark matter and its minions from the world.

As for the claim that the opponent has already broken through or bypassed Arceus's protection to reach Earth, that's utterly ridiculous!

Su Hao was not intimidated by Him at all, and retorted: "No, in my opinion, you—at least are not the true form of dark matter."

Su Hao is willing to guarantee it.

If it is indeed the real Arceus, the moment the other party reveals their identity, Arceus will stop suppressing the seal and personally intervene.

After all, the peeping tom's eyes had been following him the whole time, so it was impossible that he hadn't noticed what was going on here.

Since the other party chose to remain a bystander, it can only mean one thing.

At least, the guy in front of me who claims to be the will of dark matter is definitely not the original entity that has grown to its extreme!

This can be seen from the fact that He still needs the negative emotions that Dark Mewtwo has collected along the way to replenish His energy.

Even though Su Hao saw through his "bluff," Chuangxing remained calm and composed.

Having absorbed a large amount of negative emotions originating from humans, He felt a long-lost sense of "fullness".

But such satiety alone is far from enough for Him. What He desires is to spread negative emotions such as fear and despair throughout the entire planet and draw a great deal of energy from them to continuously and limitlessly strengthen Himself.

Hehehehe—

"That's quite a keen intuition, but it's all meaningless."

"With Arceus in this world preoccupied with protecting his true form, you have absolutely no chance of defeating me."

Creator squinted, and starting from his legs, the black smoke that formed his humanoid form returned to its original state, once again spreading at the base of the Tree of Origin.

At the same time, He looked up at Sakaki.

"According to the contract, the rest is now in your hands."

Sakaki nodded slightly: "Okay."

His purpose in coming here was to fulfill the terms of the contract.

According to the contract, during the period of creation... or rather, the core of dark matter eroding and usurping the Tree of Origin of the world.

Those who noticed the strangeness of the Tree of Origin, and most of the legends still on Blue Star, would continuously flow here.

He and Dark Mewtwo X will block all attacks targeting this area.

Until the Creator Star successfully usurps the Tree of Origin and corrupts and controls the evil thoughts of Hoopa within the Punishment Jar in its hand.

During this period, the stability of this world will be greatly shaken, providing a decisive boost to the dark matter entity in another world that is constantly trying to invade this world.

When that moment arrives, when the dark army from another world surges in again, this world, shattered from within, will have no chance of turning the tide and will only desperately become nourishment for the dark matter to grow stronger once more.

Sakaki was well aware of the consequences of his actions.

But so what?

In countless parallel worlds, the destruction of a single world is utterly insignificant.

On the contrary, dark matter has great potential, and they may have opportunities to cooperate in the future.

Sakaki only cares about profits; in his view, the benefits that dark matter can provide make long-term cooperation worthwhile.

This is also why, even after he obtained Solgaleo and allowed Mewtwo to transform its negative energy into the most suitable power for itself, he did not break the contract and leave immediately.

Standing atop Shiny Genesect, Giovanni stood with one hand in his pocket, alongside Dark Mewtwo X and Crimson Solgaleo, blocking the path of the legendary figures.
