Pokémon: From Magikarp

"Bang...biu..."

Above the pitch-black sky, a giant cactus burning with raging flames slammed down like a baseball, knocking the bird, which was flapping its wings, down from the sky.

"Oh!"

The winged hair fell onto the leaves of the giant Xi Yi flower, the powerful force causing the entire plant to tremble slightly.

Immediately afterwards, Egui Peng gracefully descended from the sky and returned to Lin Shifeng's side, holding a mask in her hand and jumping excitedly.

He's a formidable opponent!

On the other side, Lin Shi also came over. He first praised Ergui Peng, and then went to check on Zhenyi Fa's condition. The other party was completely unconscious, and the black aura wrapped around its body began to fade. The entire elf's condition seemed to be becoming unstable.

Seeing this, Lin Shi frowned slightly. This winged creature was only an incomplete individual. To completely complete it, he would definitely need the help of Shui Wudeng. However, Shui Wudeng was now completely controlled by Xi Yi Flower, so this was obviously impossible.

Thinking of this, Lin Shi shook his head. Now was not the time to think about these things. Every second wasted would allow the spirit world passage to remain open for another second, and the harm to the real world would be greater.

"Let's leave it here for now, and figure out what to do with it after we deal with these rare flowers."

Lin Shi said something, then looked at the Fearful Pot in the air, which was constantly activating the curse runes to suppress the opening of the passage.

“Bhuth, we are ready.”

Without any hesitation, Lin Shi said crisply, "Since we've already made up our minds, let's get straight to the point."

"Evil Phantom, Burning Bug, Aegislash, thank you for your hard work."

Then Lin Shi looked at the three Pokémon and said, "Burning Bug goes without saying, and Aegislash and Ursaring, being Ghost-type Pokémon and legendary Pokémon, are obviously the main force of this trip."

As for the other spirits, although they are not ordinary spirits and may be able to contribute in the spirit world, Lin Shi dared not gamble on it and would never allow them to appear in the spirit world if he could avoid using them.

As for the money-gathering spirit...

Lin Shi suggested that we wait.

"Lin Shi, you're going to close the spatial portal, right? Can I go with you?"

Just then, Rena Mizunashi suddenly appeared behind Lin Shi and said in a somewhat hurried tone that her current condition also seemed a bit strange, how to say it... she was becoming less and less like a human.

Based on Lin Shi's knowledge, it was impossible for humans to float over and communicate with her...

"Never mind that for now, what's going on with you?"

Lin Shi frowned and asked, while Rena shook her head in confusion.

"I don't know either, but that's not important now. If you want to close the spatial passage, you will definitely be blocked by the Flower of Xiyi. Perhaps the memories in my mind can help."

Rena continued, explaining that everything she had done was for Mizunaru, whose current condition required the removal of the mother plant of the Hiei Flower first, otherwise it would be tantamount to death.

"That's...ok."

Lin Shi glanced at her with some difficulty, but he had to admit that what she said made sense. Rena clearly had intricate connections with the Xiyi tribe and might be able to play a crucial role.

Without further hesitation, Lin Shi raised his head.

“Basihu, let’s go.”

As soon as Lin Shi finished speaking, purple smoke and clouds quickly emanated from the teapot. These smoke and clouds were like the steam rising from the teapot, rising and expanding. At the same time, the teapot lid slowly opened, revealing an opening inside that looked like a black hole.

"Whoosh!"

Immediately afterwards, a powerful suction force came and sucked Lin Shi in along with the burning insects. Ergui Peng and Rena followed suit.

"Ping!"

After absorbing everyone, with a crisp sound, the form of the Fearful Pot gradually became ethereal and slowly dissipated into the world, making the entire dark world even more deathly silent...

"Am I open my eyes yet? My friend, even though we're on our way, we should still give each other some light."

Looking at the pitch-black world before him, Lin Shi said helplessly. As soon as he finished speaking, the burning insect beside him emitted a warm light, which finally dispelled some of the oppressive atmosphere.

"I go!"

As soon as Lin Shi could see clearly, he was startled by the purple, eggplant-shaped body of the Fearful Pot in front of him. The other party was floating in front of him, only a few centimeters away.

"Hey, Bu Si Hu, how long will it take us to get to the Mojiang Ruins?"

After seeing it clearly, Lin Shi breathed a sigh of relief and asked.

"Ping!"

The Bhus-bottle responded with obvious confidence; for a spirit of its caliber, traversing the spirit world was as easy as an old lady blowing her nose—a piece of cake!

If it weren't for the fact that the gatekeeper spirits couldn't leave the spirit realm at will, it could travel around the world with that ability alone. Although the Mojiang Ruins were far away, they were just a stone's throw away to it.

So, barring any unforeseen circumstances...

"Oh!"

Suddenly, the pitch-black world shook and a muffled thud was heard, as if something had been hit.

"What's going on? Pot of Fear, can I see what's happening outside?" Lin Shi also realized that things didn't seem to be going as smoothly as expected.

"Ping!"

The expression on the potter's face turned solemn. With a gentle shake of his hand, the dim world inside the pot became chaotic. After a rapid transformation, a desolate and lifeless scene appeared before them.

"Is this the spirit world?"

Lin Shi muttered to himself. He was naturally familiar with the spirit world, but the current state of the spirit world was clearly different from what he remembered.

At this moment, the originally gray and white sky of the spirit realm was radiating red light, and huge black Xi Yi flowers were growing ferociously. One of them had black vines that were wrapped around the body of the Fearful Pot, which was obviously the one that was hindering the Fearful Pot's progress.

"Ping!"

As a champion-level Pokémon, Bulbasaur was not so easily restrained. It exuded a vigorous power, with clusters of purple energy spreading all over its body like mist.

Then, a stream of black water formed from shadow power gushed out from the spout, like a long sword instantly severing the Xi Yi Flower that bound it.

But Lin Shi had no time to pay attention to this matter. The proliferation of the Xi Yi Flower was not what surprised him the most. What astonished him the most was a Xi Yi Flower plant with a very unique appearance in the very center of the many Xi Yi Flowers in front of him.

That Xi Yi Flower was unlike any Xi Yi Flower it had ever seen before. Its entire body was unusually large, somewhat like a giant, moldy, blackened corn, with black and red veins resembling eyes spreading across its entire body.

Lin Shi wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt like the plant was staring at them.

"What is that? Is it also the Flower of the Rare Tree?"

Lin Shi frowned and asked himself.

But this time, before the Fiery Teapot could respond, Rena Mizunashi's eyes widened and her lips twitched slightly.

"That is……"
