Chapter 726 Fair Competition

The three of them walked up the stairs in silence. After walking for more than ten minutes, their legs were a little sore, and they finally reached the top of the Sky Pillar.

Walking out of the passage, there was a high triangular platform in front of the three people. Once they were on the platform, four balls of green flames suddenly ignited in several stone basins in the three corners!

The flame ignited so suddenly, strangely and mysteriously, as if it was announcing something to the sky, or pointing the way for someone.

Needless to say, this is the most important place on the Sky Pillar - the Dragon Altar.

But it doesn't look like anything...

Xia You looked around and found that apart from the stone floor and a higher step, there was nothing else. How could it look like an altar?

Standing on the edge and looking down, there were thick clouds outside the tower. However, these clouds seemed abnormal. After all, according to the height, there shouldn't be such thick clouds here. It seemed as if they were artificially created, probably for the purpose of blocking the view.

I can only say that these people of Meteor have really taken protection to the extreme.

And now that they have reached their final destination, it is time to move on to the next step.

Xia You and Xi Jiana looked at each other at the same time.

After a long silence, Xi Jiana couldn't help but say, "As agreed, I have brought you here. Can you tell me about your plan now?"

After several days of traveling, and then walking here to cleanse herself, her mentality had calmed down a lot, and she also realized that this man might have been irritating her before.

But it's too late to think about it now.

After all, Xia You had already entered their holy land and the rules had been broken. Now that it had become a fact, she couldn't say anything more.

You can't really make enemies with this person and kick him out, right?

"What plan can I have?" Xia You shrugged. "It's nothing more than summoning Rayquaza and then trying to subdue it. But as for the matter of summoning Rayquaza, I still plan to let you do it."

"Let me do it?" Xi Jiana glanced at him calmly, "You haven't forgotten what I said before, have you? Summoning the Rayquaza requires a colorful meteorite, and the meteorite has long been lost!"

"I'm afraid that's not the only way, right?" After taking a deep look at her, Xia You didn't expose her immediately, but asked first, "Actually, I've always wanted to ask you, you always talk about the colorful meteorite, what does it look like?"

Shaking her head, Xijiana said, "I don't know the details. It disappeared during my parents' generation. I only heard that it has magical powers. It can not only attract Rayquaza, but also make it super evolve into a stronger form."

Can it also allow Rayquaza to mega evolve?

Why does it sound like it has the same function as the round key stone I just picked up?

Could it be that the stone in my backpack is the colorful meteorite?

The Meteor People have not been able to find the colorful meteorite for more than ten years, or even decades. In fact, it has been hidden in this tower, but they were in the dark and thought it was lost outside?

Although it seems a bit outrageous and far-fetched, it is indeed possible.

Otherwise, it cannot explain why this stone is in this shape, has the characteristics of a key stone, and possesses such strong power!

"So, you haven't seen a colorful meteorite either?"

Xijiana did not answer, which was considered as tacitly agreeing with Xia You's question. After all, as the people of Meteor, the loss of the most important treasure in the tribe was not a glorious thing, and there was no need to mention it repeatedly in front of outsiders.

After looking at her deeply, Xia You took out the stone he had just got from his backpack in front of Xijiana and put it in his hand.

Xijiana's eyes naturally fell on the stone. Although she was a little surprised and didn't understand why Xia You took out a round stone at this time, she didn't say anything and didn't make any extra movements. She just stared at the stone in confusion for a few seconds.

During this time, Xia You had been carefully observing her expression.

Seeing that she didn't seem to have much reaction to the stone, I knew that Xijiana was not lying and she must have never seen such a thing.

However, it was not until Xia You turned the stone over and let her see the thing that looked like a key stone that Xijiana's pupils suddenly shrank.

“Eh? What is this…!?”

Although it was only a moment, Xia You still keenly noticed the surprise she showed.

Holding the stone in her hand, she kept throwing it up and down. What's interesting is that Xijiana's eyes also moved up and down along with the stone as it was thrown.

Looking up at Xia You, she asked in surprise: "How come you have something like this?"

Xia You raised his eyebrows: "Why? Do you know it?"

Nodding, Xijiana hesitated for a moment before saying, "From its shape, you can tell that this is a meteorite keystone!"

Meteorite keystone?

Not a colorful meteorite?

Although it was a bit surprising that he guessed wrong, it didn't matter that it wasn't a colorful meteorite. Xia You didn't take it to heart, but instead focused his attention on this so-called meteorite key stone.

In fact, in this world, most key stones were dug out from the mountains by people, and only a very small number of key stones came to this planet through the falling of meteorites.

Although both are essentially the same and have the ability to mega evolve Pokémon, it is said that the Meteorite Keystone contains an extraordinary cosmic energy that makes it extraordinary!

But because the number discovered is so small, scientists still can't figure out what the differences are.

However, there are still rumors that Pokémon that have evolved through the Meteorite Key Stone will become stronger after being strengthened by cosmic energy than Pokémon that have evolved through ordinary Key Stones!

Although there is no evidence to support this view, the fact that there are rumors out there is definitely not something groundless.

Thinking of this, Xia You couldn't help but laugh and said, "I see, then it seems I can replace the previous key stone with this one!"

Seeing his smug look, Xijiana couldn't help but ask, "Where did you get it?"

"Didn't you just see it?"

After hearing what he said, Shijiana suddenly realized what was going on when she remembered seeing this man and those Pokémon looking for something when she went up the stairs just now.

So it was then...

but……

How did he know there was a meteorite keystone there?

I remembered that Xia You said that he had been here before. Could it be that he saw it when he came here before?

Although she was a little curious, it was no big deal for Xijiana.

Whether it is an ordinary keystone or a meteorite keystone, there is basically no difference to her.

Xiaoxia, who was standing by, was listening to the conversation between the two. Although she didn't understand some parts, she knew that Brother Xia You must have gotten something good again!

This also made her sincerely happy for Xia You.

The two girls had different thoughts, and at this time, Xia You also understood why this key stone in the anime was attractive to Rayquaza.

It must be the cosmic energy contained in it that attracted Rayquaza's attention!

"Okay, let's put the topic of the key stone aside for now." Looking at Xi Jiana, Xia You changed the subject and said, "Let's get straight to the point. I won't hide it from you. In fact, the reason I asked you to bring me here is because I really want to borrow your power."

Xi Jiana said calmly: "I've already said that the colorful meteorite is lost, I can't help you."

"Not necessarily?" Xia You's eyes slowly swept over the keystone wrapped around her right leg, and smiled, "Aren't you well prepared and have collected a large number of keystones?"

Hearing this, Xijiana's pupils shrank sharply!

She looked at Xia You in disbelief, obviously extremely surprised: "How...how did you know that!?"

This is her biggest secret!

As a rare genius among the Meteor People, not only is her strength far beyond her peers in the tribe, she also has an irresistible tenacity.

After Deoxys's defeat last time, she learned from her mistakes and tried hard to find a way to summon Rayquaza without the colorful meteorites. After thinking about it day and night, she actually came up with an idea!

That is to attract the attention of Rayquaza by sacrificing a large number of key stones, and thus lure it down!

And this method, after theoretical verification and experiments, seems to be feasible. The only thing needed now is actual operation!

But this was a method I came up with in private and had never revealed to anyone else. How did this man know it?

Does he have the ability to predict the future?

Or does he have spies among the Meteor People?

If there really is a spy, this would explain why he said he had been here before.

But is this possible?

Without giving her a chance to continue to think about it, Xia You continued: "Of course, I won't let you help me for nothing, but I think you have been in a hurry to travel these days, and I'm afraid you don't know what happened recently?"

Xijiana was stunned when she heard this. Indeed, she had been traveling day and night these days and spent most of her time in the air. All she thought about was getting to Shuijing City as soon as possible to meet up with this man. How could she have the chance to find out what was happening outside?

"what do you mean?"

Xia You glanced at Xiaoxia, and Xiaoxia was very sensible and acted as a narrator, telling Xijiana the story again: "Yesterday, outside the city of Larus, two Deoxys fought with Rayquaza and eventually defeated it. The video of their fight was also filmed and uploaded to the Internet, causing a big sensation on the Internet."

"Rayquaza? Deoxys!?" Shijiana frowned and looked at Xia You, "What's going on? Did you cause this?"

She did not doubt the truth of the matter. After all, such things could be found out with just a simple search, and she also believed that this man would not use such things to deceive her.

"Of course." Xia You nodded. "I tell you this for no other purpose, except to tell you that I do have a chance to meet Rayquaza, and I have the ability to defeat and subdue it."

Xijiana had no doubt about this.

In fact, she had already clearly realized it as early as the last battle to subdue Deoxys, but she didn't understand why the man brought it up at this time?

Are you here to show off to yourself?

Seeing her puzzled expression, Xia You said calmly: "If you help me summon Rayquaza this time, I can try my best to help you capture one as well, and complete the goal that you and your people have been pursuing all your life!"

I have to say that when Xijiana heard these words, her heart was indeed moved, and it was the kind of instant where her heart was about to jump out, making her feel uncontrollably excited!

Taking a deep breath and forcing herself to calm down, she did not let Xia You's words get to her head, but asked, "Since this matter is so simple for you, why do you need my help?"

Xia You raised his head and looked up at the sky, pretending to be mysterious and said: "Don't worry about this. I just want to ask, do you accept this deal?"

"Trade?" Shijiana pondered for a moment, but still did not agree. She just said, "I can summon and subdue Rayquaza without your help, but I will give you a fair chance to compete."

Oh?

Xia You looked at her with some surprise. She didn't expect that she would give up such an opportunity that could be easily obtained and choose to fight for herself!

It seems that he is very confident in his own abilities.

But it’s better this way, and it saves me the trouble of making another trip.

"What do you mean by a fair chance...?"

Facing Xia You's question, Xi Jiana said: "I will summon Rayquaza, but as for who it chooses and who it will fight, it depends on our respective abilities!"

It turned out to be the case.

Xia You nodded. For him, this would indeed involve a certain risk of missing out on the possible appearance of the Black Rayquaza, but when he thought of the meteorite keystone he had just obtained, he was still very confident that he would be chosen by the Rayquaza.

In other words, if I get it, I'm lucky, if I lose it, it's my fate. If I really have no chance of getting Rayquaza, it's no big deal. I'm used to not having shiny Pokémon anyway, so this one doesn't matter!

"No problem, then please summon me."

"No rush." ​​After making the decision and reaching an agreement with Xia You, Xi Jiana had already let go of her mentality. She walked to the stone steps nearby and sat down, saying lightly, "It's not the right time yet. We have to wait until dark."

"Wait until dark?" Xia You's mind moved, "Is there any point in this?"

Shaking her head, Xijiana said, "No, it's just because my success rate in summoning Rayquaza is higher at night."

It turned out to be like this...

Xia You really didn't expect this to be the reason.

But it's better this way. The more "unreliable" Shijiana is, the higher the chance of summoning the Black Rayquaza in his opinion!

After all, it's metaphysics, so we should always show it proper respect.

only……

I looked up at the sky. The sun was shining brightly, but it was only noon, the hottest time of the day. It seemed like I still had a long time to wait until night.
