Pokemon: How Are You Cultivating Immortality in the Pokemon World?

Lu Li was panicking. Was this cult leader planning to sacrifice him?

It wasn't impossible that this old geezer would call him the Chosen One and then trick him into feeding the Tiger Vanguard.

The old man was silent, just walking along.

The two finally arrived at the base of the towering tree, surrounded by more and more coffins.

Lu Li roughly estimated that there were no fewer than ten thousand transparent coffins in this place, a terrifying number.

If all these people were dead, and dead under the sacred tree that was the avatar of the God of Life, then things would seem very absurd.

The old man in front suddenly said, "The Prophet once foretold that the Chosen One can awaken the great Xerneas."

"What if I can't awaken it?" Lu Li asked.

The old man smiled without answering, then pointed to an empty coffin not far away.

Could these ten thousand coffins have come about this way?

Lu Li was numb.

This old geezer really had bad intentions.

Seeing Lu Li's nervous face, the old man explained with a smile, "You don't need to be nervous. No one dares to create death in the domain of the God of Life, because that is the greatest blasphemy against the God of Life."

Hearing this, Lu Li breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as this old guy didn't want his life, that was fine.

"The people you see in those coffins are all in a deep sleep. In your modern terms, they are currently in a state of hibernation," the old man continued to explain.

Lu Li nodded thoughtfully.

Now he could confirm that this old guy seemed to have been in contact with modern society.

"Then who are you?" Lu Li asked.

This was also what Lu Li had been curious about. The old man in front of him was too strange, so strange that he didn't seem like a normal person.

"Me?"

The old man was a little surprised, a look of reminiscence flashing in his eyes as he said slowly, "I have many identities. In the beginning, I was the Morning Star of the Star Constellation Tribe, representing the future of the tribe. Later, I was the Polaris of the Star Constellation Tribe, controlling supreme power."

Star Constellation Tribe.

Hearing this familiar name, Lu Li wasn't very surprised.

It was normal for such a powerful tribe to exist for several epochs.

"Now I am the High Priest of the Holy Church of Life, worshiping His Majesty Xerneas, an old immortal who has lived for who knows how many epochs," the old man finally concluded with a vicissitudes of tone.

As a cultivator, the most persistent thing was the desire to ascend to immortality.

After all, he had also thought about finding Xerneas and begging for eternal life.

"You obtained eternal life?" Lu Li asked in surprise.

The old man nodded: "I once witnessed the glory of His Majesty Xerneas with my own eyes, so I was granted longevity."

Lu Li thought of that legend.

When the horns on Xerneas's head shone, it would share eternal life.

The old man in front of him should be the lucky one in that legendary story.

"Then who are these people?"

Lu Li asked, pointing to the coffins.

The old man said, "Among these people, some are false Chosen Ones, and some are my clansmen."

"This old guy is so ruthless? He doesn't even spare the children of his own tribe?" Lu Li was shocked. He realized that he had underestimated the old guy's madness.

The High Priest, wise with age, saw what Lu Li was thinking at a glance.

Relating to his reputation, the High Priest specially explained, "I know what they are pursuing, so I left them here. When Xerneas awakens, everyone here will obtain eternal life."

Lu Li: "…"

It could be played like this?

If you don't know when Xerneas will awaken, then just keep waiting.

As long as you wait long enough, you will definitely be able to wait?

Lu Li had to admit that this idea was completely fine.

If it weren't for the cheat and the bonds, Lu Li would have wanted to find a coffin and lie down here.

Waiting for eternal life.

This temptation was too great.

"Don't worry, if you are not the true Chosen One, I will leave you a coffin," the High Priest comforted considerately.

Lu Li: "…"

"Then I really thank you, old man," Lu Li said, his mouth twitching slightly.

The High Priest smiled, a look of acceptance on his face.

Lu Li asked, "Then if I don't want eternal life, can I go back?"

The High Priest smiled without answering.

But the meaning was self-evident.

Before Xerneas awakened, no one could leave this secret realm.

Lu Li: "…"

Lu Li was thinking at this moment if he could forcibly break open the secret realm and run out if he activated all the teleportation symbols at once.

Bearing in mind that he had already come, Lu Li decided to try it.

Even if he couldn't leave, he would have to steal a piece of "bark," after all, it should also be considered a divine object.

"What should I do?"

Lu Li asked, pretending to be nervous.

The old man said, "Go touch the sacred tree. If you are really the Chosen One, Xerneas will be awakened by you."

Lu Li nodded, then braced himself and came to the base of the towering tree.

After taking a deep breath, Lu Li slowly reached out his hand.

The moment his right hand on land touched Xerneas, the whole world was instantly paused.

Even Lu Li was also paused.

In Xerneas's mind world.

"Dong, dong, dong!"

"Xerneas! Don't sleep, an old friend is here to visit."

The sleeping Xerneas slowly opened its eyes.

Xerneas had not fully awakened, only its consciousness had awakened.

"Terapagos? Why have you come here?" Xerneas asked in surprise.

"Never mind that," Terapagos refused to answer this question.

"Wait."

Xerneas looked at Terapagos in front of it in surprise.

"What's going on with your state?" Xerneas asked in surprise.

Terapagos was even more embarrassed.

This Xerneas really didn't know how to chat.

Terapagos, who was complaining in his heart, said with a dark face: "Never mind that, it's too troublesome to explain."

"Okay."

Xerneas nodded. It was not a god with a strong curiosity. Since Terapagos didn't want to answer, it naturally couldn't continue to ask.

"So what is your purpose in coming to me?" Xerneas asked.

"Yveltal is about to sleep at your doorstep. In order not to increase the workload of those two idiots, I specially came to remind you," Terapagos explained.

Xerneas asked in confusion: "Isn't Yveltal in a secret realm on another continent? How did it run to my side?"

It and Yveltal actually had no conflicts.

The reason why the two were at odds was entirely because of the issues of authority and priesthood that they each held.

Moreover, Yveltal was not the kind of evil god who was keen on destroying things. The reason why it caused large-scale death every time it woke up was entirely because of Yveltal's authority and priesthood.

This world was too fragile, so fragile that even breathing by these top mythical beasts could bring huge disasters to the world.

Yveltal absorbs life and releases death; wherever it goes, everything withers. That sounds very evil.

But Xerneas is actually the same.

Xerneas absorbs death and releases life; wherever it goes, everything flourishes. But anything in excess is bad. Once it exceeds that limit, the destruction it brings is definitely no less than the withering of all things.

So whenever one of them awakens, the other must also awaken to bring the world back into balance.

At this time, another god has to be troubled.

Zygarde, the God of Order.

It is the only top mythical Pokémon that does not need to sleep.

The reason why Zygarde doesn't need to sleep is because it exploited a world BUG.

Terapagos explained, "You don't have to worry. With our efforts, this world has become much more stable. As long as you two don't fight, the world won't collapse."

Xerneas nodded and replied with relief, "It seems that a lot has happened in this world during my slumber."

"Tell me about Yveltal," Xerneas said.

"While the origin of the laws accumulated in you is not much, why don't you wake up and vent for a while? Then go back to your respective homes?" Terapagos suggested.

A trace of thought flashed across Xerneas's face.

In fact, their slumber is only a temporary solution for this world.

Because in the process of their slumber, the authority and laws are still operating, so their slumber can be said to be accumulating power.

This is equivalent to concentrating all the destructive power at one point to erupt.

The advantage is that the Time-Space duo don't have to mend the world for this, but the disadvantage is that every time these two wake up, they have to reorganize the world, which is a big project.

Xerneas said, "I have to ask Zygarde's opinion on this matter."

"I agree."

A mechanical voice sounded.

Cell-form Zygarde joined the "chat group."

After seeing Zygarde, Terapagos shouted in a predictable tone, "Zygarde, you really are here."

"I am everywhere."

Zygarde replied aloofly.

"It's a cell controlled by a rational core, how disappointing," Terapagos curled its lips.

Zygarde retorted aloofly, "Gods don't need emotions, you are the heretics!"

Xerneas asked hesitantly, "Yveltal is in the real world. If I expose my aura and wake him up, will it cause harm to the life of the real world?"

"The demise of a few lives does not disrupt the balance of the world," Zygarde said indifferently, not caring about the unfortunate few at all.

The kind Xerneas looked at Terapagos with some embarrassment, hoping that Terapagos could come up with an idea.

Does Terapagos have a solution?

The answer is of course no!

After all, it is only in its ordinary form now. If it were in the Stellar form, it could completely shield Yveltal's legendary aura.

Before Terapagos could speak, Zygarde took the initiative to fire.

"Terapagos, your previous actions seriously disrupted the balance and order of this world, and an explanation is needed!"

Terapagos: "…"

"That was an accident," Terapagos explained somewhat embarrassedly.

After all, it was its trouble that made people work overtime, and Zygarde's questioning was simply too justified.

Xerneas also looked at Terapagos in surprise: "Terapagos, I remember you were creating stars in the universe? Did you do something big again while I was asleep?"

In fact, in a way, Terapagos is the creator of the current Blue Star, because the original world had long been turned into fragmented secret realms.

Zygarde only questioned it and didn't pursue anything.

After all, Zygarde is in a rational state now. The matter has already happened, and it is useless to settle accounts afterward.

The reason why it questioned it was just to warn Terapagos.

Terapagos has been too active recently, and even a little negligent.

Zygarde emphasized: "Arceus is missing, and may even be no longer in this universe. Terapagos is like this now. If Blue Star shatters, it will no longer be able to be reshaped, so Yveltal must wake up now."

For this world, Blue Star is a bit like the center of the universe, or a stabilizing needle.

It doesn't matter whether the life on Blue Star dies or not, what matters is that Blue Star must be there.

Although the Time-Space duo can rewind time, the creation of planets still depends on Terapagos.

Terapagos nodded in agreement.

It is too weak now, and Blue Star must not be broken at this time, otherwise the Time-Space duo will suffer a lot.

After hearing that Arceus was missing, Xerneas also realized the seriousness of the matter.

Arceus is missing, and Terapagos is in a weak state. If Blue Star shatters again, the Time-Space duo will have to pay a heavy price to rewind time.

At that time, the Time-Space duo may even return to the origin of the laws. Once the Time-Space duo return to the origin of the laws, the evolutionary process of this world will be suspended.

They have worked hard for countless years, and this world has the strength it has today. If the world regresses because of this, what is the point of their efforts?

Thinking of this, Xerneas's eyes no longer had the previous pity.

"I understand. I will wake up and awaken Yveltal, but Yveltal's side…"

Zygarde said: "I will notify Yveltal's side."

"Then it's a pleasant decision. Don't worry, during my weakness, I will interfere with this world to ensure that this world does not shatter," Terapagos took the opportunity to promise.

"Guarantee? What do you guarantee with?" Zygarde questioned coldly, "Rely on those two ignorant Motor Lizards? Or rely on your cowardly Envoy?"

Terapagos: "…"

Big brother, don't hit people in the face!

Be arrogant now. When your turtle grandpa raises a little Arceus, I will let you know what true cruelty is!

Terapagos, who was complaining endlessly in his heart, still didn't explode in the end.

There's no way, it's too weak now, and it really can't beat the other side.

"Envoy? Such a distant title."

A trace of reminiscence flashed in Xerneas's eyes.

In ancient times, it also had dependents.

Humans are smart and creative.

Xerneas once favored this race very much, but as human civilization progressed, more and more evil was born, and it no longer favored this race.
