Chapter 879 872: Dreamwake Island

After leaving the research institute, Ethan entered Sandslash's Secret Kingdom, located on the back mountain of the institute.

Inside the Secret Kingdom, Tyranitar and Rhyperior, two Rock-type Pokémon, were carrying out intense training.

What Tyranitar had to do at that moment was special training for the move Sandstorm. Ever since Ethan had captured Regirock, a Legendary Rock-type Pokémon, Tyranitar had often asked it for advice. Now, its use of the power of the sandstorm had risen another level, and along with it, its rocky armor had also become stronger.

On the other side, Rhyperior was standing inside the Sealed Stone Gate. The muscles of its entire body bulged, as if it were enduring something.

The Sealed Stone Gate was originally the place where Regirock had been sealed. Inside it, it contained an extremely terrifying oppressive force. Even when Regirock was in a sealed state, it could not break free from that force.

Now, using that special force, Rhyperior was resisting it with all its strength through the move Rock Wrecker.

At the same time, this oppressive force could produce an effect similar to the pressure in the depths of the earth, tempering Rhyperior's body and making the hard rocks covering its body become even more resistant.

Its terrifying physical strength determined Rhyperior's ability to endure the side effects of the move Rock Wrecker. From another point of view, it was also increasing Rhyperior's strength and destructive power.

With its physical condition, defense, and attack power, combined with the various skills derived from the superior technique of the move Rock Wrecker, Rhyperior's combat strength was also absolutely terrifying!

If Rhyperior could complete a transformation similar to Onix becoming Steelix, then it would not be far from reaching the Elite level. This was Rhyperior's path toward the Elite level!

After entering and chatting for a while with Tyranitar and Rhyperior, Ethan also took out their Poké Balls and recalled the two Pokémon.

On this trip to the Champion Road, Ethan planned to take all his Pokémon with him to obtain the qualification to challenge the Elite level. Naturally, he would not forget these two good companions.

After recalling Tyranitar and Rhyperior, Ethan arrived at the Solar Farm. On the great grassland, he saw Cacturne's enormous upright figure.

Thanks to the training during this period, Cacturne's control over life energy had become even stronger. Now, when using the move Growth, its size could already reach the terrifying height of ten meters.

Facing such a gigantic Cacturne, even a big guy like Regirock looked much smaller, with no possibility of comparison.

"Perhaps the next Pokémon to reach the Elite level will be Cacturne."

Ethan thought to himself, also feeling happy for Cacturne.

From when it was a Cacnea until now, it could be said that Cacturne had advanced step by step through training.

"Cac!"

Seeing Ethan, Cacturne also became very happy.

After withdrawing the Growth move, its body shrank back to a little over one meter tall.

Seeing this, Ethan naturally did not spare any praise, and at the same time invited Cacturne to accompany him.

"Cac!"

Cacturne happily waved its fist.

Then it took the initiative to touch the Poké Ball in Ethan's hand, and its figure turned into a red light that entered it.

"So only Flygon is left."

Ethan put Cacturne's Poké Ball into the backpack he carried on his back and raised his head to look at the sky.

If one observed carefully, a green figure could be seen descending in a dive from the sky.

It was precisely Ethan's Flygon.

After obtaining Rayquaza's scale and mastering the ability to control air currents, Flygon had taken the sky as its training place, comprehending Rayquaza's power in the atmosphere.

Gently, Flygon landed beside Ethan.

Under the effect of the Levitate ability, Ethan's body began to rise on its own.

Under Flygon's control, Ethan arrived directly on its back.

"Let's go. First, let's go home. Afterward, we can go conquer the Champion Road."

"Flyyggnn!"

Hearing Ethan's words, Flygon happily let out a dragon roar and flew toward Ethan's house.

At Ethan's house, Ethan's dad and mom had already learned from Naira that Ethan was about to leave again.

Although they felt much sadness in their hearts, the two elders still chose to support him.

Before Ethan left, Ethan's mom prepared an abundant meal and invited Ethan and Naira to eat until they were satisfied.

...

The Champion Road was located on Dreamwake Island.

According to the information Ethan had in his hands, before the Daleron League explored Dreamwake Island, Darkrai, the God of Nightmares, had lived there.

Therefore, the entire Secret Kingdom was still filled with a mysterious dream energy.

After completely exploring the Secret Kingdom of Dreamwake Island, the Daleron League built a tower there: the Illusory Tower.

In addition, the Illusory Tower had another name: the Champion Road!

After reorganizing in Solaria Town, Ethan took all his Pokémon with him and arrived at Dreamwake Island, where the Champion Road was located.

"Miis!"

At the entrance of the Secret Kingdom, Ethan was surrounded by a group of Misdreavus.

Besides being the nest of Darkrai, the God of Nightmares, Dreamwake Island was also the paradise of these Misdreavus. The dream energy that filled the place was truly far too suitable for the survival of the Misdreavus clan.

The current Illusory Tower was controlled precisely by countless Misdreavus, among which there was no lack of Elite-level and even Champion-level Mismagius.

"Challenger Ethan, welcome to the Champion Road."

"We have already collected all your identity information. You may now enter the Secret Kingdom."

At the entrance of the Secret Kingdom, the staff registered Ethan's information and spoke.

"Thank you."

Ethan received back the identity document that the worker handed him and, after thanking him, entered the Secret Kingdom.

"Welcome, Ethan."

At the entrance of the Secret Kingdom, the graduates of Ironvale City Pokémon University were waiting especially to receive him.

Now, Ethan's identity and strength were completely different. Even they, those former senior students, were not as dazzling as the current Ethan.

Under these circumstances, after the academy director informed them that Ethan was going to enter the Champion Road, someone immediately came to wait for him here.

"Captain Daniel, hello. And all of you as well, I'm glad to meet you."

Ethan smiled at Captain Daniel Harper, who was leading the group, and then looked at the other people behind him.

Suddenly, Ethan's gaze froze.

Among the crowd, he unexpectedly saw Lucas and Marcus.

Without him knowing when, those two guys had discreetly slipped into the Champion Road.

"Ah, they're those guys from Ironvale City Pokémon University."

On Dreamwake Island, there were many practitioners from different forces and universities.

Seeing that the members of Ironvale City Pokémon University had all gathered in the plaza, they began whispering among themselves.
