Chapter 1404 Tongtian Peak
"I came here to challenge the Primordial Bird, the Lord of the Sky."
Xia Yu's confident words caused the Roaring Moon's expression to change abruptly. It raised its head to look at Xia Yu and said in a hoarse voice, "The Primordial Bird of the Sky Treasure Lord possesses quasi-god level strength. Its strength is beyond imagination. You are no match for it!"
"How will we know if we don't try?" Xia Yu replied with a smile. "Besides, its pseudo-legendary level strength was forcibly enhanced by external forces, so it can't be considered a true pseudo-legendary Pokémon."
Upon hearing this, Roaring Moon shook its head, not wanting to dwell on the topic any longer. Instead, it asked, "Since you intend to challenge the Primordial Bird of the Sky, why did you come here?"
"Would you be willing to join us in challenging the Lord of the Sky?" Xia Yu looked at Roaring Moon and extended a sincere invitation.
However, Roaring Moon gave his answer without even thinking: "No, if you want to go to your deaths, go by yourselves. I will not go with you."
"Alright." Faced with Roaring Moon's rejection and ridicule, Xia Yu was not annoyed. Instead, he smiled and said, "Roaring Moon, I can understand your cowardice and fear. I don't blame you for not wanting to help us, but I hope you won't help the Sky Treasure Master, the Primordial Bird!"
“Yes!” Roaring Moon replied in a deep voice.
"Alright, it's a deal. I won't bother you anymore." After Xia Yu finished speaking, he gently patted the sonic dragon beneath him, signaling it to fly towards the mountain peak with the iron neck coiled on the right.
…………
The same scene played out again.
Xia Yu persuaded the master-level Iron Neck with reason, and it promised not to interfere with Xia Yu's challenge.
Xia Yu had now completed all the preparations. He had done his best and left the rest to fate. He could only rely on himself and his Pokémon!
Xia Yu rode the Sonic Dragon, raised his head, and gazed at the tallest mountain in the distance, towering and isolated.
The summit was submerged in a sea of clouds, and the lines of the mountain ridge were as sharp as blades, cutting through the clouds and mist. Some small black dots could be seen moving in the mountains. These small black dots were obviously Archaeopteryx.
Even though the previous peaks of Zhucheng Peak and Cangying Peak were steep and precipitous enough, they still seemed small compared to the distant mountain peak.
"Are you ready?"
"Ah."
Noisy Dragon nodded slightly in response to Xia Yu.
Froslass, Darkrai, and Deoxys, three Master-level Pokémon, floated beside Xia Yu, lined up in a row, gazing at the towering, solitary peak, and nodded in unison.
"Now that we're ready, let's go!" A resolute look appeared in Xia Yu's eyes. He knew that the upcoming battle would be a fierce one.
Defeating the Lord of the Sky is no easy task, especially in aerial combat, which is the Lord of the Sky's ancestral bird's forte.
…………
The Sonic Dragon carried Xia Yu toward the final, solitary peak reaching the heavens. The sharp ridge pierced through the clouds, revealing a ray of sunlight that shone on the summit, like a fragment of light left behind by a god.
The wind was torn apart there, emitting a long, mournful howl.
The sonic dragon flapped its wings and kept getting closer to the mountain peak.
Snow Fairy, Darkrai, and Deoxys also revealed themselves, fighting alongside Xia Yu.
As they drew closer to the towering mountain peak, its faint bluish-gray outline in the clouds became increasingly clear.
The deep green fir trees on the mountainside spread out densely along the ridgeline, with milky white frost hanging from their branches and leaves.
A cold wind blows, and tiny ice crystals fall softly, refracting into star-like points of light in the sunlight streaming down from the dome. Further up, the closer to the mountaintop, the thinner the vegetation becomes.
The exposed rock face, with its interwoven blue-gray textures, exudes an ancient aura, and the Archaeopteryx can be faintly seen, with the Archaeopteryx frolicking on the rocks.
The clouds on the mountaintop began to disperse, revealing a clear blue sky behind it, and a wisp of blue tail feather hanging down.
"Roar!"
The Archaeopteryx, nesting on the rocks, had already spotted several Pokémon leaders and let out loud roars.
This roar seemed to be a unique communication signal among the Archaeopteryx population. As the roar rang out, the entire mountain peak instantly became chaotic, with countless Archaeopteryx and Archaeopteryx chicks making noisy noises.
Countless Proto-Birds took flight from their nests on the rock face, circling the ridge before swarming towards the Noisy Dragon.
Xia Yu's gaze fell on the two ancestral birds at the head of the group. They were the same, one male and one female, both with master-level strength and enormous size, exactly the same as the configuration of the Rock Wall Treasure Master Hairy Crab clan.
Although these two master-level Prototype birds were equally powerful, Xia Yu's mood remained completely unaffected.
Because he knew this was just an appetizer; the real challenge was yet to come.
The Primordial Bird of the Sky Treasure Lord has not yet appeared, but it is not difficult to deduce from the wisp of blue tail feathers hanging down that the real Primordial Bird of the Sky Treasure Lord is definitely several times, ten times, or even more than ten times the size of the normal Primordial Bird!
Such a terrifying size made Xia Yu feel oppressed and suffocated just thinking about it, but this time he was fully prepared!
The Archaeopteryx, the Lord of the Sky, is not a true pseudo-legendary Pokémon. Even if such a pseudo-god is powerful, it is not invincible!
"Take care of those two Archaeopteryxes first!" Xia Yu shouted suddenly. "Deal with them as quickly as possible."
Archaeopteryx is a Rock/Flying-type Pokémon.
Although Archaeopteryx has a terrible Rock type, its resistances are decent when combined with the Flying type, with only five double weaknesses: Rock, Steel, Water, Electric, and Ice.
"Froslass, go all out, don't hold back." In order to finish the battle quickly, Xia Yu directly ordered all three Pokémon to attack at the same time: "Darkrai, Deoxys, you assist Froslass."
As Xia Yu's voice fell, the Snow Fairy suddenly raised her right hand.
In an instant, a storm of ice surged around it, and ice energy formed a trickle that wrapped around its arms and flowed toward its palm, almost instantly converging into a terrifying ball of ice energy.
"boom!"
The dazzling ice-elemental energy sphere burst forth with the most brilliant light, and the blinding beam of light blasted towards the flying proto-birds, instantly engulfing them!
Freezing beam!
Wherever the blinding beam of light passed, everything was frozen, even the air itself condensed into icicles, and a chilling aura wafted through the air.
The Snow Fairy displayed absolute dominance from the moment she made her move. Even among the master level, she was the strongest. Now, after fusing and absorbing the ice pillar slab, the Snow Fairy's previously stagnant strength has finally begun to loosen!
Even now, it has the ability to fight against Zoroark. Although it may not be able to win, it can at least put up a fight.
Therefore, when facing two master-level peak Archaeopteryx, it performed with ease. While it may not have easily crushed them, it could certainly handle two opponents at once!
Moreover, it had two helpers by its side.
Darkrai and Deoxys attacked simultaneously the instant Froslass made her move!
