Led by Number 7980, Chen Kai received a palm-sized instrument.
Number 7980 also helped Chen Kai set it up, dividing the Taijing Energy into seven levels, corresponding exactly to the seven levels of the Tera Crystal Pit in the game.
Thus, Chen Kai dared to try his luck in the mid-to-low level Tera Crystal Pits.
By the way, Chen Kai measured his own Taijing Energy, and he was shocked to find that it displayed 4 stars!
Chen Kai roughly estimated that he contained Taijing Energy equivalent to level 45!
No wonder he was becoming more and more like a superhuman.
Number 7980 led Chen Kai back to the hall, and Chen Kai kept trying to use Pokémon moves as he walked.
"Chen Kai, you shouldn't be able to use moves. After all, you only contain energy; your essence is still human, not a Pokémon."
Tieban Ye Daren saw Chen Kai waving his arms wildly from afar and reminded him.
"Is that so...?" Chen Kai felt a bit regretful; he had thought he had a chance to fly and burrow.
Seeing Chen Kai a bit dejected, Tieban Ye Daren added a few more words: "However, you occasionally emit a little Taijing Energy, and the Pokémon around you will benefit greatly."
"Is that so!" Chen Kai had never heard of this before.
Tieban Ye Daren affirmed, "Yes, otherwise, why do you think your Ampharos has improved so quickly?"
"Ah! Is that how it is?" Chen Kai didn't know how many times he had been surprised today.
"I thought it was because I always took them into battle."
"Battling is one part," Tieban Ye Daren thought for a moment and made a comparison:
"For Pokémon to increase their combat power, it's like humans exercising. Just training isn't enough; you also need to supplement with protein for muscles to grow quickly.
Pokémon battles are like basic training.
And the Taijing Energy you occasionally emit is like high-quality protein powder, even more effective than high-quality protein powder.
Only by combining the two can they improve quickly."
"Oh!" Chen Kai understood now. His Xiao Mei indeed improved faster than Wang Yi's Wooloo and Huang Mao's Dwebble.
Xiao Mei was already over level 30, while they, despite frequent outdoor battles, were only around level 10.
However, recently, they had been training near him, and their improvement had sped up significantly. Dwebble and Wooloo were already over level 20.
Then they should invite him to travel even more.
Tieban Ye Daren then took out a green orb and gave it to Chen Kai: "Take this. If Virizion comes to trouble you, inject Taijing Energy into it. As long as you are within the borders of Sichuan and Chongqing provinces, I can come and help you at any time."
"Thank you so much!" Chen Kai was a bit surprised and also very grateful.
These past few days, he had been a bit worried. If he completely angered Yelena, and Virizion suddenly attacked, Iron Bundle wouldn't be able to hold out for long, and he wondered if he could escape to Area Zero.
Now with this orb, Chen Kai had no worries at all.
Meanwhile, Tieban Ye Daren occasionally observed Yelena through Iron Bundle's Poké Ball, especially during the incident at the Research Institute, where she sensed Virizion's energy.
Later at the hospital, Tieban Ye Daren confirmed that Yelena had a green stone in her arms that also had a monitoring function. So Virizion was also using that girl to constantly keep an eye on Chen Kai. Therefore, Tieban Ye Daren gave Chen Kai another guarantee just in case.
After all, putting everything else aside, if Chen Kai was gone, she would have nowhere to get her tea, and she was quite fond of Da Hong Pao.
And this orb of Tieban Ye Daren had just been temporarily strengthened by her, ensuring that Virizion would have to personally appear before Chen Kai, otherwise she would absolutely not be discovered.
After a round of thanks, Chen Kai continued to drink tea and chat with Tieban Ye Daren.
Chen Kai directly raised a question: "Tieban Ye Daren, will you invade Blue Star?"
Chen Kai had a high degree of trust in Tieban Ye Daren. He didn't think Tieban Ye Daren would do something like invade. Instead, he felt that Tieban Ye Daren was quite a homebody; besides accompanying Chen Kai out once, he had never seen her leave the Astronomical Observatory.
"Virizion said that, didn't he?" Tieban Ye Daren shook her head and said with a smile.
"Unless I tie you to my back twenty-four hours a day, I can stay longer with the Taijing Energy. Otherwise, my power is too strong, and as soon as I arrive on Blue Star, it will immediately detect me and generate a repulsive force against me.
Unlike Iron Bundle by your side, Blue Star won't repel it at all when it's with you.
That's why I beat that guy up back then but still let him run.
Because there's no need; I can't settle on Blue Star long-term.
He's just too afraid of me, afraid that I'll steal his position."
Chen Kai was a bit puzzled: "Steal his position? What position?"
Tieban Ye Daren continued to explain: "Every world has some fixed divine positions. Both Virizion and I have the Grass typing, and we are both Sacred Swordsmen. If I could stay on Blue Star long-term, there's a certain probability I would steal his position.
Then Virizion would lose his divine position as a secondary deity and fall to being an ordinary Pokémon."
Chen Kai finally understood completely: "No wonder! Virizion is so wary of you."
A high and mighty deity, suddenly one day another strange-looking version of himself comes to steal his position, and he can't even defeat the other party. Anyone would be scared, anyone would be wary.
"Then Tieban Ye Daren, do you have a divine position?" Chen Kai asked curiously.
This time, it was Miraidon who spoke: "In our world, there's no such thing as a divine position.
There, it only depends on how strong you are; the stronger you are, the higher your position."
Tieban Ye Daren nodded: "Yes, but this 'divine position' thing seems quite interesting. If that green worm wants to cause trouble, I don't mind trying to seize his divine position and see what it's like."
Tieban Ye Daren referred to Virizion as a green worm, and Chen Kai almost spat out his tea from laughing.
Unbeknownst to them, the tea was almost finished. At this moment, Number 7980's large body approached Tieban Ye Daren with small, delicate steps.
"Tieban Ye Daren, I'd like to report something!"
Tieban Ye Daren turned her head in surprise to look at Number 7980.
"What is it?"
Number 7980 raised its large palm, like a primary school student telling on a classmate: "I report that Number 7981 secretly used your likeness to make a toy!"
"Number 7...
Iron Bundle had spent some time on Blue Star and learned some local 'language' through the internet, greeting Number 7980's non-existent family warmly.
"Iron Bundle, is this true?" Tieban Ye Daren looked at it with a serious expression, questioning.
Iron Bundle was a bit, "Daren... no, I... this..."
Tieban Ye Daren rebuked, "Take it out."
Iron Bundle sadly lifted its head and took out the crystal ball from its body.
Tieban Ye Daren had an expression of disappointment, as if saying, "You! You, what did I tell you last time?"
Iron Bundle lowered its head and apologized: "I'm sorry, Tieban Ye Daren."
"Actually, this ball was bought a long time ago," Chen Kai tried to explain.
"It was mainly out of respect for you that it made this ball."
Miraidon also wanted to speak up and plead for it, but Tieban Ye Daren stopped her.
"I know. I just feel that its thoughts were focused on other things, and it didn't diligently complete its task."
For some reason, the usually gentle Tieban Ye Daren now treated Iron Bundle like a strict mother.
And Number 7980 seized the opportunity to say, "Tieban Ye Daren, you can send me to be Chen Kai's bodyguard! I guarantee I'll complete the task!"
"You?" Tieban Ye Daren asked hesitantly.
At this moment, if looks could kill, Iron Bundle would have already torn Number 7980 to shreds.
But Number 7980 didn't care at all. It nodded: "Yes, my strength is greater than Number 7981! I can definitely handle the bodyguard job better!"
Considering that she had already given Chen Kai an orb that could summon her, Tieban Ye Daren said hesitantly,
"You can try it too."
"Okay, Tieban Ye Daren!" Number 7980 responded happily and quickly walked over to Chen Kai.
"Chen Kai Daren, Miraidon Daren, you're done drinking, right?
Where are you going next? I'll escort you."
Chen Kai and Miraidon were thus half-coaxed, half-forced by Number 7980 to leave the Astronomical Observatory.
Number 7980 was afraid that Tieban Ye Daren would change her mind.
