"Boom!!"
"Sss!!"
"Roar!!"
Next to the guardian god, a large number of Dragonite, Blood Wing Dragon, and Garchomp flew in, with more than thirty powerful Pokemon occupying the sky.
The last time the guardian god had woken up was eight years ago.
This time the guardian god awoke, and the three Quasi-God Clans on Dragon Island immediately sensed it and rushed over.
"This lineup is really luxurious," Fang Yuan sighed next to him.
The aura of these Pokemon was at the very least at the Master Level, with a few that appeared to be leaders reaching the Top Tier Domain.
"This must be the core force of Dragon Island then," he said.
"No, this is just the species like Dragonite, Blood Wing Dragon, and Garchomp."
"According to what Yun Guancheng said, the leaders of the other Dragon Vein Pokemon are also very powerful. The King of the Fire-breathing Dragon in Charizard Valley that commands Blue Dragon Flame, the Red Tyrant Carp Dragon Overlord of Inverse Scale Lake, and so on, these Pokemon might also be Top-Level Combat Power!"
"Just Dragon Island alone, even without the Guardian God, has a pretty significant foundation. No wonder it has become the Dragon Type holy land of the Hua Nation."
The combined strength of the Secret Locations and perilous places Fang Yuan had been to could only be surpassed by the Spirit World in comparison to Dragon Island.
"Boom~~~~!!"
As these Pokemon came before the guardian god, one of the leading brawny Dragonites unexpectedly looked in the direction of Fang Yuan and the others.
"Boom??"
The Quick Dragon Envoy by Fang Yuan's side also recognized the other.
This Dragonite was the one who had been with the Dragonite Elder before.
"It looks like we can go with them to Dragon Island," Fang Yuan said with a smile.
............
Two hours later.
Fang Yuan, Eevee, and Dragonite arrived at the Center of Dragon Valley, flying in the air and looking down at the Dragon Cave below.
Not long after, a figure emerged from Dragon Cave. Seeing this figure, Dragonite cried out in surprise, as they finally saw the Dragon Island Elder whom they had not seen for a year.
Although a year was but a mere moment for the long-lived Dragonite, the Dragon Island Elder visibly looked more aged, which showed that, over the years, the Dragonite Elder's physical strength had started to decline, much like the scenario of the Thousand-year Gengar from Sun and Moon Forest—his Life Power gradually ebbing away...
The nightmares the Dragonite had on Nightmare Island, where they dreamt the Dragonite Elder growing old and dying, were because they had sensed these changes by the Elder's side—daytime thoughts turn into nighttime dreams.
"Children, you have returned," the aged Dragonite Elder felt their call and walked out of the cave.
The Dragonite Elder had not gone to meet the guardian god with the main troops of Dragon Island but had been staying at the center of Dragon Island.
"Elder, long time no see," Fang Yuan said as he jumped down from the back of the Dragonite.
"Boom!!" The Dragonite also landed and greeted the Dragonite Elder.
At that moment, seeing the Quick Dragon Envoy, the Dragon Cave Elder's expression was very surprised, his gaze constantly on it.
It wasn't because of the Quick Dragon Envoy's strength that the Elder had kept it by his side; it was purely because the Quick Dragon Envoy was a problem child.
A year ago, the strength of the Quick Dragon Envoy was just at the Professional Level.
But now, sensing the powerful aura coming from the Quick Dragon Envoy, the Dragonite Elder was instantly somewhat shocked.
Even those mighty warriors who lead their own lineages might not be as strong as the Quick Dragon Envoy now.
What exactly had Fang Yuan and his team done this year?
"Elder, the Quick Dragon's sleepwalking state has been cured," Fang Yuan immediately told the Dragonite Elder the good news.
```
This news was exactly what the Quick Dragon Elder had been hoping for.
Following that, Fang Yuan began to recount their experiences in trying to heal Dragonite after they left.
They first attempted to gain control through training, but without success.
Later, after consuming the Awakening Fruit, the sleepwalking state escalated to a Nightmare State, becoming even harder to control.
However, it was during this time that Fang Yuan and his companions came to understand the essence of Nightmare Mode.
Subsequently, with the assistance of the Prince of the Sea, Dragonite barely suppressed Nightmare Mode.
To gain perfect control, Fang Yuan and Dragonite then began training related to Mental Power cultivation, resulting in Dragonite initially mastering Nightmare Mode with the help of Fang Yuan's Power of the Heart.
Eventually, when the situation was getting better, with Darkrai's guidance, it even grasped the use of the Power of Dreams.
Since then, Dragonite had fully mastered Nightmare Mode on its own, no longer suffering any negative effects from being in a Rest state and instead using it as a battle technique.
The Prince of the Sea... the Nightmare God...
Could this year's experience be so rich?
Hearing such a marvelous adventure from Fang Yuan and Dragonite, the Quick Dragon Elder was momentarily taken aback.
"Child, you have both worked hard."
"Boowoo!!!~~~" Dragonite patted its chest, indicating no problem, in a state better than ever before.
At this moment, Fang Yuan stepped forward.
"By the way, when we arrived here... we saw the Guardian God."
"Aren't you going to see it?"
All the powerful Pokemon from the Three Quasi God Clans seemed to have gone over, only the Quick Dragon Elder stayed here.
"No, I won't go."
The Quick Dragon Elder shook his head; there would be other opportunities in the future.
"Elder, has the Guardian God always been like this?" Fang Yuan said. "I've done some research on Super Ancient Power; while it's very dim, the black patterns on its body should be the result of the influence of the Super Ancient Power, right? I heard them say that the Guardian God has to survive in a slumbering state to maintain its power, and considering its size... Do you think the Guardian God could be too lonely?"
Fang Yuan discovered that, like Darkrai and the Huge Gyro Dragon, in possessing immense power, they also give up many things.
While Huge Gyro Dragon, in this state, possesses tremendous strength and is respected by many from the Dragon Clan, it clearly suffers as much as the Quick Dragon Envoy, practically unable to live a normal life.
Even finding a partner is difficult, which is even less fortunate than Haha Qilong.
"This is the price one must pay to gain power. The strong are always lonely, even those legendary Pokemon in myths," said the Quick Dragon Elder, shaking his head, seeing through these matters clearly.
"Is there no way for the Guardian God to return to a normal size?"
"There's no way."
Fang Yuan fell silent, understanding that 'there's no way' from the Elder signified that even the Hua Nation Trainer Association had no solution.
"It's a pity; it would have been great if there had been a way... wait a minute, Elder, what if we do this: if we get the chance, I'll introduce the Prince of the Sea to you. The Prince of the Sea knows Kyogre, knows Lugia, he knows many legendary Pokemon; Kyogre is even one of the strongest of the Ancient Pokemon. Maybe the Prince of the Sea has some understanding of the Super Ancient Power."
Fang Yuan spoke out: "If the Guardian God could better control the Super Ancient Power, it would be good for both Dragon Island and itself."
"This..."
The Quick Dragon Elder visibly startled at the mention of the Prince of the Sea. Yes, for Dragon Island, the Prince of the Sea was also an extremely mysterious entity. Since he could help the Quick Dragon Envoy, could he possibly help the Huge Dragonite?
Although the chances of success might not be large, getting to know the Prince of the Sea was no harm; the Quick Dragon Elder had long had respect for the name of the Temple of the Sea and the Prince of the Sea.
But could this Fang Yuan... really have the ability to ask the Prince of the Sea to help them?
Meanwhile, Haha Qilong and Eevee were obviously taken aback.
Just now they were wondering why Fang Yuan suddenly became so kind-hearted, thinking about helping the Guardian God, yet in an instant, the scene changed, and the deal with the Prince of the Sea was naturally taken care of?
