Age of Elves: I started flashing with my handheld.

The salamander flapped its wings and soared into the sky, its sharp dragon eyes scanning the heavens.

The target is a Ghost-type Pokémon. Gengar, being of the same type, is easier to search. As a Ghost-type Pokémon without a physical form, it's the same whether it's in the sky or in the water; the search difficulty is the same. It lay sprawled on the ground like a clown, disappearing without a trace.

Nanfeng stood in the dense forest, watching her friends leave. Gardevoir floated beside her, silently initiating its Mega Evolution.

Connect with the spirits dispatched to carry out the mission using a faint telekinetic connection.

In this ancient, mysterious realm, superpowers are indeed strangely suppressed. But that doesn't mean they can't be used.

Gardevoir clearly relayed to Nanfeng that in the Ancient Realm, the power of psychic abilities was only one-tenth of that outside.

Even though Mega Gardevoir only has one-tenth of the power and cannot conduct a large-scale search, it is enough to build a bridge for communication among the Pokémon with its weak psychic power.

All I have to do now is wait for good news from the elves.

However, simply sitting and waiting was clearly a waste of time. Nanfeng silently took out the artifact he hadn't used in a long time from his system inventory.

Dangdangdang~~~

Treasure Hunting Device!

It's been a long time since there's been a special area that made me want to take out my treasure-hunting device.

This place, which Senior Dong Yan and Senior Huo Wenjie called an ancient secret realm, is an undeveloped and fertile land, and we must explore it thoroughly!

As soon as I took out the treasure detector, its pointer suddenly locked onto a direction.

Extremely determined!

It was as if nothing else was needed except that thing.

"A legendary Pokémon item?" Nanfeng raised an eyebrow. It wasn't surprising that a legendary Pokémon item existed in a secret realm that was at the near-champion level.

But... Nanfeng felt that this time the treasure-hunting device seemed much more determined than when it locked onto a legendary Pokémon item last time.

"Above legendary level?" Nanfeng suddenly had an unrealistic guess.

But what lies beyond the legendary level?

They don't exist. At least in the real world, legendary Pokémon items vary in strength, but there are no Pokémon items that surpass the legendary level.

"Let's go take a look," Nanfeng said, taking out a Poké Ball and releasing it.

Shiny Arcanine landed, its golden fur like a burning sun, its gait powerful and majestic!

It was those clear yet foolish eyes that were a bit distracting.

I originally thought that evolving from Growlithe to Arcanine would make it more mature, but now it seems that my "little sun" is a husky mixed breed, getting more and more mischievous as it grows up.

I flipped myself onto it, gripping its neck tightly, which resembled a lion's mane. "Paw Patrol! Let's go!"

"Woof!" The Arcanine wagged its tail and started running around excitedly.

Then it was a frantic run.

It traversed the forest like a golden streak of light.

Even when passing right next to a Pokémon, most people only realize what Pokémon just passed by after Arcanine has run far away.

Mega Gardevoir even needs to use Teleport from time to time to track down Gardevoir.

They sped along until they reached the center of the ancient secret realm, where an inconspicuous little mountain stood. Without stopping, Nanfeng discovered a cave at the foot of the mountain.

The pointer of the treasure detector deflected slightly downwards, indicating that there was no need to explore further up the mountain; it should be below this peak.

"Doggy, let's charge!" Nanfeng patted the Growlithe's neck, signaling it to go straight into the 0...

"Gardevoir, use Psychic to scan the surrounding 100 meters. Warning of potential danger!"

"Woof~" Arcanine excitedly dragged South Wind inside.

Mega Gardevoir followed suit, its psychic powers slightly expanding.

But as soon as they entered the cave, Mega Gardevoir's voice rang in Nanfeng's mind. "Nai~ (Master, my power is being suppressed even more deeply)"

"Has the degree of suppression deepened?" Nanfeng pondered.

So, it seems I might be heading towards the source of suppressing superpowers. And it's highly likely that the treasure-hunting device is pointing to that source item.

"Maintain the coverage of your mental energy as much as possible," Nanfeng instructed.

The speed dog continued to accelerate forward.

Surprisingly, Nanfeng didn't see a single elf along the way.

Moreover... this cave must have been carved out by man; the walls of the passage have old grooves and black marks, as if it was once a place where torches were kept.

After running for more than a minute, Nanfeng reached the depths of the cave.

A spacious cave.

But when they stood at the entrance to the cave, the south wind stopped.

The environment was somewhat eerie.

Under the glow of a Mega Gardevoir's Flash Ball, Nanfeng discovered an eerie black layer covering the muddy ground in the cave, a layer that couldn't be dispelled—it looked like...like soil from the spirit world! 0.6

Nanfeng, who had recently witnessed the Spirit Realm battlefield, was somewhat familiar with the aura of the Spirit Realm.

"The entrance to the spirit world?" Nanfeng frowned slightly. "No, this aura feels even purer than the ghostly attributes of the spirit world?"

"Gardedor, light up the entire cave."

Mega Gardevoir waved its hand and immediately created several more light orbs, sending them into the cave. Flash is not a Psychic-type move, so it was not suppressed.

Instantly, the entire cave was brightly lit.

Deep inside the cave, a giant rock over five meters tall caught Nanfeng's attention.

It was a jet-black stone, as black as coal, with a chain of runes in its center that shimmered with a holy golden light, binding the stone firmly to this space like a chain. The blackness that permeated the entire cave flowed from beneath the stone.

445. Dark-tailed Black Fish, Fiery Beast (appearing as if washing jade)

"What exactly is down there?" Nanfeng asked, very curious.

It was deliberately sealed with a stone.

Moreover, even when sealed, the power that overflows is still purer than the ghostly energy of the spirit world.

"Who cares what's down there? We'll find out once we open it!" Nanfeng patted the Growlithe's neck.

"Woof!" The Growlithe immediately strode into the cave with its head held high and chest puffed out.

The thick fleshy pads were imprinted on the dark earth, like stepping on a thick blanket.

The next second, the power of the ghosts surged forth!

The surging ghost energy tried to engulf Arcanine and Southwind, but they only rose two centimeters before being suppressed by Arcanine's sun-like flames.

The ghost-type energy quickly and quietly subsided, rippling outwards like a dragonfly skimming the water as Arcanine took its next step.

“Nah~ (Master, the psychic powers have completely failed)” Gardevoir also reported.

Nanfeng nodded slightly, confirming his suspicions; this was indeed the source of the suppressed superpowers.

With his eyes fixed on the town stone in front of him, Nanfeng was deep in thought.

How can we move the stone to release what's being suppressed underneath?

Directly destroy the 03 Town Stone?

Releasing the suppressed, terrifying spirit was secondary; Nanfeng was confident in his combat abilities. Unless the opponent was a first-level god, he could escape even if he couldn't win. His concern was whether destroying the suppressing stone would damage what was being suppressed.

Or... Nanfeng recalled the scene of Senior Dong Yan unlocking the Zhen Shi talisman.

“Nah~ (Master, Greninja has spotted the target!)” Gardevoir said.

"So fast?" Nanfeng thought that finding the target Pokémon for Senior Dong Yan would be a huge project, but he didn't expect that it would be found in less than an hour.

After thinking it over, Nanfeng decided to leave first.

"I'll bring Senior Dong Yan over to take a look at this talisman later."

"Doggy, let's go!"

"Woof!" Arcanine immediately activated Flame Charge and ran wildly toward the cave at an even faster speed than before, with Gardevoir close behind.

After the south wind left, the orb of light shattered and disappeared, and the cave returned to silence and darkness.

However, unlike usual, a ghostly figure suddenly appeared behind the black stone. Its equally black form blended into the surrounding darkness, and what allowed people to observe its presence were its pair of eyes that shone like gold.

They came out of the cave.

"Where is the Greninja?" Nanfeng had barely finished speaking when a Saxophone flew over to meet him.

Nanfeng flipped onto the Salamence, casually put away Arcanine, and sped off towards the northwest.

"Boom!" Just as they reached their destination, an explosion erupted in the densely wooded riverbed.

Greninja was in mid-air when it raised its hand and unleashed a series of flying water shuriken!

"Dengdengdeng!!"

For a moment, the water surface looked as if it were being strafed by machine guns.

The opponent, not to be outdone, launched a series of Shadow Balls from the water.

Nanfeng then clearly saw that the Pokémon battling Greninja was... a Darktail!

The body of a large, savage bass, but its tail is a ghostly, burning shadow like eerie phosphorescence.

"No wonder I've never seen it before..." Nanfeng finally understood why Dong Yan said he had never seen it before.

Because these are indeed ancient spirits that have never been witnessed by modern humans.

In the Pokémon world, Grimtar is a Pokémon from the "Verdant Region." The Verdant Region is the "Sinnoh Region" from one to two thousand years ago.

In reality, the Phantomhive has long been "extinct," existing only in recorded history and in artifacts unearthed by chance.

This is the first time I've ever encountered a live Phantomhive in the real world.

Uh, no, the Darktail is a Water/Ghost type, so strictly speaking it's dead.

"I didn't expect that I would find the Xicui region in reality before I even got to it on my handheld console," Nanfeng chuckled.

Suddenly it occurred to me that if this secret realm was so "ancient" that it could produce Pokémon from the Greenland region, then could I also find other Pokémon from the Greenland region?

Are there any unique Pokémon from the Xicui region that I can raise myself? I need to think about that carefully and look around some more.

Picking up the guidebook, Nanfeng informed Senior Dongyan that she had found her target.

The Dark Tail Fish should be the target he's looking for.

As for Nanfeng himself, he wasn't very interested in the Dark Tail Fish, even though it was already at the near-champion level.

There are already Greninja and Gyarados, as well as Lugia and Latias, which are not Water-type but are known as "Sea God" and "Red Latias" respectively.

Water-attribute lineups are already "saturated".

Upon receiving the news, senior student Dong Yan arrived quickly, accompanied by senior student Huo Wenjie.

"Just cover for me and don't let it get away!" Dong Yan landed by the river, took out a Poké Ball, and decided that whether to capture the Pokémon or have the trainer defeat it personally in the end was the best option. Otherwise, even if it was captured, it would most likely not obey the trainer's commands.

"Come back and get some rest," Nanfeng hurriedly recalled his Pokémon, handing the stage over to Dong Yan, leaving only Greninja and Gengar to hold the fort and prevent Grimtar from escaping again.

As soon as Dong Yan appeared, the Nethertail Black Fish immediately locked its gaze on him. As the overlord of the water, and even the overlord of the entire ancient secret realm, it had long ago written down the "powerful enemy" who attacked it last time in its grudge notebook.

His eyes immediately lit up with a red light, and the flames on his tail surged even more intensely!

Before Dong Yan could send out his spirits, the Dark Tail Black Fish launched a sneak attack, abandoning all martial ethics!

"Water jet"

Dong Yan calmly took out a Poké Ball and released it.

"Spray flames!"

A Typhlosion jumped out of its Poké Ball, but unlike a regular Typhlosion, its back fur was purple, and it had an extra ring of purple fur around its neck, like a scarf, with purple fireballs "embedded" in the scarf.

Even when it enters its special state, the flames erupting from behind the Typhoon are purple!

Compared to ordinary fire monsters, it seems more...elegant~

Of course, this Typhlosion isn't a shiny Pokémon; its strange appearance is simply because it's a Typhlosion from the "Green Region"! Its type is no longer just Fire; it also has the Ghost type.

So... Typhlosion (the one from the Greenland region) is the other target Pokémon that Senior Dong Yan mentioned before?
