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

What do you mean by "not now"?

Given the power of the creator god, it shouldn't be a problem for him to directly and forcibly intervene in the balance of life and death to make adjustments, right?

During this time, they will also try to restore the Law of Death to its normal value while keeping Xiao Yi in a normal state.

It can't be that it can't do it, that would be too far-fetched.

After a brief silence, Arceus said calmly:

Even I, in order to adjust the balance between life and death, need to descend in my true form and use the source of life to fundamentally modify the world.

You can also interpret this as me being unable to free up my hands right now, as my true body cannot leave in order to suppress this.

[At this moment, it has only briefly awakened due to sensing the tremors of the world's laws.]

"...Suppression?"

Meeting those pale green eyes, Su Hao frowned.

You've been to that place once before, haven't you?

Upon hearing this, Su Hao's eyes widened immediately.

A place I've been to once before.

Having been there once, it even prompted Arceus to remind me: could that place be—

"The Spirit Realm!?"

Su Hao's eyes widened immediately, and he blurted out his guess.

It was a rather peculiar experience. He was just walking normally on the road when he was suddenly ambushed by a passage that appeared beneath his feet.

When I came to my senses, I found myself in an area overflowing with negative energy, which startled the Articuno so much that it puffed up its feathers and hissed.

Does this mean Arceus is currently suppressing the spirit world in his true form?

【good】

As if sensing Su Hao's inner thoughts, Arceus gave his approval.

Chapter 1476: The Incident Ends

Upon hearing Arceus's affirmative answer, Su Hao paused for a second.

So what exactly is the situation in the spirit world that requires Arceus to personally suppress it?

Although the Arceus before us is most likely an avatar rather than its true form at the multiverse level, what could possibly allow it to suppress us...?

Before Su Hao could even form that bold guess in his mind, it seemed that time was running out, and the entire consciousness space began to gradually collapse from the edges.

The rest of the explanation is up to you.

Arceus's eyes clearly realized this as well, and its gaze fell on Zygarde, who was bowing his head.

The matter of balancing life and death is something that doesn't need to be worried about too much at this stage, at least. It will take a long time for the chain reaction to occur, and I think I will be able to handle it by then.

During this time, try to get along well with them. After all, your positions are not conflicting except for this matter. Once the internal troubles are dealt with, the pressure on me will be reduced.

Arceus acted like a patriarch, giving instructions to the stubborn, inflexible child Zygarde, then casting an expectant look at Su Hao and the others before leisurely making his exit.

At least this time, it appreciated Su Hao's tactful handling of the situation.

After defeating Zygarde, he did not take any drastic actions. Instead, realizing that Zygarde would definitely be his helper in the future, he directly returned the cell containing 1% of the power of the God of Order and tried to find a solution that would balance life and death.

It's just that it's a bit too lenient with itself, but that's fine. It's the only UR in the village (Blue Star), and it can't wait to pamper it.

Once everything is resolved, it can be leased to other Arceus at a high price!

Everything receded like the tide after it had gone out.

When Su Hao came to his senses, he found that the scenery around him had transformed back into the center of the Viridian Forest after their great battle.

The girl, Carlos, seemed completely oblivious to what was happening and stubbornly stood in front of Su Hao.

Ho-Oh breathed a slight sigh of relief, while Diancie was still immersed in the shock of meeting the creator god for the first time.

Mewtwo lowered its head, seemingly lost in thought, while Reshiram's expression was inexplicably unpleasant.

Only Zygard seemed to have finally let go of his obsession, sighed, and jumped onto at least Carlos's shoulder.

"Very well, since that lord has already made the arrangements, I will not have any objections."

"I... will no longer act rashly in the matter of the balance between life and death, nor will I take action against Xerneas and Yveltal again. You can all rest assured."

Zygard's surrender signifies the end of this war of the gods in Viridian Forest.

Only this scene of devastation remains, a testament to the divine battle that took place here.

However, all of this is only temporary.

.......................................

2025 1 Month 27 Day.

A day has passed since the battle against Tokiwa God.

The many workers of the Divine Continent Alliance, who were on edge, fearing to follow in the footsteps of the Sakura Kingdom Alliance... or rather, the Sakura Province, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the blockade around Viridian Forest has not yet been lifted, this is only because it was requested by Su Hao, the league champion who once again resolved this incident and brought everyone an unprecedented sense of security.

—The widespread destruction of trees and the disappearance of land caused by the war of the gods was undoubtedly a devastating blow to Viridian Forest.

As the holder of the power of Viridian, Su Hao could sense the weakened will of the Viridian Forest.

This was for the sake of Viridian Forest, and also to prevent the wild Pokémon that once lived in this central area from becoming homeless. Su Hao supported the legendary Pokémon in starting the reconstruction of the central area.

Since it's just a forest, there's no need to build any structures.

However, restoring the forest to its original state is not an easy task.

After all, the power and aura of the seven legendary figures—Zygard, Xerneas, Ho-Oh, Diancie, Mewtwo, Guruton, and Reshiram—remained on the earth.

Only by eliminating the influence of these influences can Viridian Forest return to its former state.

It took them an entire night, under Su Hao's urging, to work overtime to erase their legendary aura.

Motor Lizard, who had put in so much effort, had to clean up the mess, and hadn't even had dinner, looked at Su Hao with resentment in his eyes.

But this is only the first step.

Next, at Su Hao's request, Zygarde reverted to its 10% form and began to reshape the ground it had messed up using its Ground attribute and its signature move "Thousand Waves".

Mewtwo, worshipped as the "God of Earth and Wood" by some in the Pokémon world, uses its powerful memory to direct Zygarde to transform every piece of land back to the original appearance of Viridian Forest.

It must be said that Zygarde was also a naturally gifted being in the fields of earth and wood. With its efforts, a barren piece of land was quickly rebuilt.

Looking at the "fruits of his labor," Zygarde, still in his hound form, silently pondered what he had been busy with these past two days.

He got beaten up for nothing, and in the end, he still had to clean up the mess he left behind...

Hearing the girl's rhythmic humming, Zygarde, snapping out of his daze, hesitated for a moment before asking the girl on his back, "Carlos...aren't you going to ask me why I chose to make peace?"

The girl paused in her humming, her emerald green eyes looking at Zygarde with a hint of confusion. "Why do you ask?"

"No matter what Xiao Ji chooses to do, I will always support you."

In the sunlight, the girl's shimmering golden hair momentarily stunned Zygarde.

But the beautiful scene was shattered in the next moment.

"Make way, make way, it's time to sow seeds!"

In the sky, Su Hao, wearing a red hard hat, impatiently urged Zigeld to finish his work and not linger there, blocking their way of sowing seeds!

If a tree is missing or a flower is missing, will you, Kircheid, compensate me?

Once all the seeds are aligned with the mental model created by Mewtwo when it scanned Viridian Forest using its mental powers, then...

Next, it was the turn of the two gods of life to play their part.

Phoenix flew into the sky and unleashed sacred fire rich in vital energy.

Of course, this doesn't mean setting the mountain on fire; if it did, even Phoenix King Su Hao would have to say a few words to it.

—Ho-Oh's sacred fire burned fiercely across the land of Viridian Forest, and in a short while, the lifeless, empty land and dried-up lakes that Zygarde had gathered together were revived.

Then, Xerneas, who had fully recovered, walked out.

A dreamlike, ethereal aura enveloped the entire area. A wisp of ethereal wind blew by, and all things vied to revive, with greenery filling the earth once more.

With the combined efforts of several legendary spirits, Viridian Forest was restored to its former tranquility before the War of the Gods began.

Chapter 1477 Sleeping Little Yi

The lakeside area is even clearer and cleaner than before.

"It seems that the law of death has fallen into a deep sleep due to its self-protective mechanism."

Zygard withdrew his power of order, paused for a moment, and then looked at Xerneas.

"But it's a pity... no, it's fortunate that you usually keep a small amount of life force in it, otherwise it would turn back into a destructive cocoon and indiscriminately absorb the life force around it."

Su Hao: "........"

You just said it was a pity, right?

Looking at the legend gathered around him, especially Zygarde with his eyes wandering, Su Hao sighed.

Although Zygard had surrendered, the power of order on Xerneas vanished the moment of its defeat, allowing the severely injured Xerneas to recover.

Su Hao could tell that although Zygarde had chosen to bow its head because of Arceus, the creator god, it still believed in its heart that it had not made a mistake.

Illya's transformation back into the Cocoon of Destruction, passively absorbing the life force of her surroundings, aligns with Zygarde's principle of balancing the order of life and death.

Su Hao also understood that Zygarde's choice was the one with the least sacrifice and the quickest solution.

However, due to his stance and emotional state, he could not possibly agree with Kircheid's views.

After all, I am not a saint, and I also have my own selfish desires.
