Chapter 1377 Xia Yu's Power
As Xia Yu's voice fell, the Soundwave Dragon flapped its huge wings violently, stirring up a fierce gale that carried Flying-type energy outwards.
With each breath, the icy mist that filled the air was blown away, and the vision suddenly became clear.
The champions who had been hiding their tracks and tracking Xia Yu were exposed the moment the ice mist dissipated!
"Roar!"
Above them, the Sonic Dragon looked down at them, its throat erupting with a roar that tore through the air. The sound was like shattered crystal or a storm tearing through the clouds. The loud sound waves refracted repeatedly between the rock walls, condensing into visible pale purple ripples.
The Sonic Dragon's wings suddenly unfolded, their membranes shimmering with a dazzling light.
It hovered above everyone's heads, flapping its dragon wings, each flap stirring up a stream of air mixed with gravel.
Xia Yu rode the sonic dragon, blocking the group above them, his gaze sharp as a knife as he looked down at them.
Marshall champions, Brunhilde champions, and Schneider champions... It's them again?
"What do you want to do by following me?" Xia Yu looked at the group coldly, while slightly raising his hand and waving it.
This inexplicable action caused a hint of doubt to flash in the eyes of the champions.
But then Froslass and Darkrai appeared, floating to the left and right of Xia Yu, staring at the people in front of them.
Seeing the three Pokémon in the sky, Marshall, whose location had been exposed, felt a sinking feeling in his heart. He took a deep breath, adjusted his breathing, and tried to relieve the pressure Xia Yu was putting on him.
“Champion Xia Yu…” Marshall said in a deep voice, but was immediately interrupted by Xia Yu.
"Marshall!" Xia Yu's icy voice rang out as he looked down at the group, his voice filled with oppressive power: "I'm giving you one last chance. You can try to continue following me... but you'll bear the consequences!"
“Xia Yu…” Marshall wanted to explain, but Xia Yu directly used thunderous methods and loudly ordered, “Darkrai, Dark Hole.”
As Xia Yu's voice fell, Darkrai raised his right hand, and black Dark-type energy surged into Darkrai's palm, forming a black vortex.
In an instant, the dark energy had coalesced into a ball of power filled with dark energy!
"boom!"
The dark hole suddenly unfolded, like ink spreading throughout the world, corroding the originally colorful world into a black and white world, and dragging all living beings into a nightmare world.
Darkrai's sudden move caught everyone off guard.
Even Marshall was surprised that Xia Yu would actually take action this time, giving him no chance to speak.
"That madman!" Marshall cursed inwardly, but having no other recourse, he could only shout an order for Dramberto to retaliate: "Dragon Pulse!"
Seeing this, the other champions nearby also felt a chill run down their spines and ordered their Pokémon to launch a counterattack.
"King Squid, Brute Force!"
"Magneto, 100,000 Volts!"
…………
"boom!"
The colorful energies collided, triggering a violent explosion.
"Snow Fairy, Blizzard!" Xia Yu glanced at everyone, then continued to give the order expressionlessly.
As the command was given, the Snow Fairy raised her arms slightly, and an extreme chill that sent shivers down one's spine instantly burst forth from her body.
A deep blue ice-type energy surged out of its body like flames, no longer flowing gently, but erupting violently!
In the air, countless tiny ice crystals condensed and grew at a visible speed, transforming into a pure white cold current that swept everything away. Wherever it passed, even light seemed to be frozen and swallowed up.
"call--!"
A biting wind howled, its fierce chill like tangible ice blades, centered on the Snow Fairy, and roared relentlessly toward the direction where Marshall and the others were.
Where the blizzard passed, the rock face was instantly covered with a thick layer of solid ice, and any remaining moisture in the air was instantly sucked away, freezing into deadly ice shards flying everywhere.
This extremely cold torrent collided violently with the attacks unleashed by Marshall and the others' Pokémon!
"boom!"
A deafening explosion rang out, and the surging blizzard was blasted into a vast expanse of snow that filled the air, blotting out the sun.
The weather in the vicinity was changed; the wind and snow poured down, turning the entire valley into a snow country.
A fierce wind howled, and the surging icy wind whipped Xia Yu's clothes into a flutter. The cold air was like a knife, stinging Xia Yu's cheeks. Xia Yu took a deep breath and said softly, "Let's go, Snow Fairy, Darkrai. A little lesson is enough for them."
After Xia Yu finished speaking, he gently patted the sonic dragon beneath him.
"Roar!"
The Sonic Dragon flapped its wings, stirring up a raging ice storm, and fled under the cover of the snow.
…………
"Cough cough."
The biting wind and snow rushed into Marshall's mouth and nose, choking him and making his throat hurt.
"Hoo!" "Hoo!"
Marshall took several deep breaths before he could catch his breath.
"Xia Yu has already left." Schneider's voice came from the snow curtain beside him: "He doesn't want to get entangled with us."
“Hmm.” Marshall nodded, a cold expression on his face.
“Champion Marshall, let’s go. There’s no need to chase him anymore. He’s warning us that he’s not going all out,” Schneider’s voice continued.
“I know.” Marshall reached out and patted his clothes, brushing away the frost covering them. As the frost faded from his face, a bitter smile appeared on his lips. He shook his head and said to Schneider, “I told you not to follow Xia Yu… that guy’s temper is as volatile as ever.”
"We should be thankful that this guy is mindful of our champion status and doesn't dare to openly go all out," Brunhilde said, still shaken. "This guy still has so many powerful Pokémon he hasn't used yet, like Ironhide and Lapras..."
Hearing Brunhilde's words, Marshall nodded: "Let's retreat. I'll tell Elijah that our mission failed. He won't blame us."
"Hmm." Schneider nodded as well.
The reason they came to follow Xia Yu was because they split into two groups as Elijah had instructed.
One group took the main road, following the Chinese champion into the cave to search for treasures, while the other group, this small group, followed Xia Yu.
Elijah made this decision because he suspected that Xia Yu might know some inside information, and that following Xia Yu might bring unexpected gains.
This ensures that no matter which side of China gains something, they won't leave empty-handed.
Who would have thought that Xia Yu would be so perceptive? They had only just caught up when Xia Yu discovered them, and his attack left them covered in dust and empty-handed!
