Chapter 577 A Gliding Race Between Cliffs? The Mysterious Flying Parkour! Overlord Scorpion, I've Subdued You!
Based on the location they had obtained from the contact, Ye Yinchuan and Ergui quickly arrived at the familiar yet unfamiliar cliff face.
however.
The scene before them stunned Ye Yinchuan and all the viewers in the live stream.
That cliff should have been densely covered with scorpions.
At this moment, it is completely empty.
Only the howling wind whipped up sand and dust, lashing against the bare rock face, producing a desolate sound.
Where is the person? No, where is the scorpion?
[Host, are you sure you've got the location right? Did this Scorpio clan move overnight?]
Could it be that person who contacted us last time? They captured one and scared away the entire pack?
[Possibly! After all, he's a top-tier talent personally certified by the streamer; his potential is so strong that it's caused rejection from his community!]
The comments section was filled with speculation and confusion.
"wrong."
Ye Yinchuan shook his head, his sharp gaze sweeping over the surrounding environment.
"Look at these marks."
He pointed the camera at his surroundings.
In the surrounding environment, countless fine, fresh claw marks all pointed in the same direction—towards the deeper part of the canyon.
"It doesn't seem like a sign of panic and flight; it's more like—an organized, collective action."
A playful smile curved at the corners of Ye Yinchuan's lips.
"interesting."
He didn't offer any further explanation, but simply followed the trail with the Eguilan towards the depths of the canyon.
The further in you go, the louder the wind grows.
The rock walls on both sides became increasingly steep and narrow.
soon.
A series of excited yet sharp "ya-ya" sounds, accompanied by the sound of wind breaking, came from ahead.
Ye Yinchuan gestured for Erguilan to stop, then quietly peeked out himself.
next second.
A magnificent and wildly vibrant scene unfolded before everyone's eyes!
In the most treacherous section of the canyon ahead, hundreds of scorpions were engaged in a thrilling race, riding the turbulent air currents!
They set off from one end of the canyon, spreading their wings like agile gliders, and darted at high speed between the narrow rock walls!
They sometimes use updrafts to suddenly elevate their bodies and avoid protruding sharp rocks.
At times, it would suddenly fold its wings, like a free fall, narrowly escaping through the raging crosswinds!
This is a trial for the entire race, a celebration to hone flying skills and survival abilities!
Holy crap! That's so cool! A Scorpio clan's Rift speed race?!
[So they didn't move, they just went out for team building!]
[This maneuver, this technique, is even more impressive than that of a professional wingsuit flyer!]
No wonder they like to stay on cliffs, it turns out they're doing this!
The viewers in the live stream were completely ignited by the raw and stunning visuals before them.
"Pon~"
The Egui, standing to the side, watched the figures soaring freely in the air, its emerald green eyes gleaming with eager anticipation.
Although it cannot fly, its inherent restlessness and competitive spirit have been fully unleashed!
It turned its head and looked at Ye Yinchuan with expectant eyes.
Ye Yinchuan understood its meaning and nodded with a smile.
"Go."
"It's a rare treat to get out here, so let's unleash our true nature."
Obtain the trainer's permission.
"Ponyo!"
Ergui let out an excited cheer!
Its small figure, like a green cannonball, leaped off the rock face without hesitation!
【? ? ? 】
[Hey streamer! Your Pokémon jumped off a cliff!]
[This... this monster can't fly! If it falls, won't it be smashed into a pancake?]
Just as the live chat was filled with exclamations of surprise!
As the monster descended from mid-air, it suddenly swung its ivy-wooden staff forward!
The vines at the tip of the wooden stick instantly extended, like a long whip, and precisely wrapped around a protrusion on the opposite rock wall!
next second.
Using the force of its swing, it deftly drew a perfect arc in the air and landed steadily on the rock wall on the other side!
Then, it used both its hands and feet, like a top parkour master, to run at high speed on the almost vertical rock face!
Its speed is no slower than that of scorpions gliding through the air!
even----
When it needs to make sharp turns and avoid obstacles, its parkour moves along the rock face appear more agile and effortless!
Holy crap! Holy crap! Holy crap!
[Scaling walls and roofs! This is real wall-climbing!]
[So what if you can't fly? You've got Newton turning in his grave!]
While other Scorpios are flying, Evil is doing extreme parkour. This style is absolutely amazing!
The powerful addition of the Evil Spirit quickly attracted the attention of the Scorpios.
Especially the one flying at the very front, with the sharpest eyes and the most robust physique—
Scorpio, the Overlord!
It noticed this little green creature running on the rock face.
A hint of surprise flashed in those kingly eyes, but more than that, it was the fighting spirit of a worthy opponent!
"ah!"
The dominant Scorpion let out a high-pitched cry, as if issuing a challenge!
It suddenly turned sideways, adjusted its gliding angle, and rushed straight towards the evil spirit!
It wants to confront this arrogant intruder in its area of expertise!
"Ponyo!"
The treacherous creature showed no weakness whatsoever!
Seeing the oncoming overlord, it not only did not slow down, but instead pushed off with its feet, making it even faster!
A battle that transcends race and territory has begun!
The dominant Scorpion traced an eerie arc in the air, attempting to disrupt the Evil Barrier with its airflow.
The evil spirits, on the other hand, move nimbly and skillfully on the rock face, using tiny footholds to perform all sorts of unbelievable maneuvers and easily overcome obstacles!
One is a glider in the sky.
One of them is the king of cliffside parkour.
The two, one above and one below, one to the left and one to the right, neither giving way to the other, race side by side through the treacherous canyon!
The entire live stream was incredibly exciting, with everyone's adrenaline pumping!
however.
Just as this contest was about to enter its most intense phase...
An unexpected change occurred!
"ah-!!!"
A piercing scream suddenly came from behind!
A scorpion that was gliding suddenly stiffened, as if struck by something, and fell helplessly from mid-air!
boom!
It crashed heavily onto the rocks below, struggling, but could no longer fly.
The sudden turn of events brought all Scorpios to a standstill.
The overlord Scorpion, who was struggling against the Evil Spirit, suddenly stopped and looked back. His sharp eyes were instantly filled with rage!
who is it? !
How dare they attack its own people during their own activities!
[Something's happened! A Scorpio has been ambushed!]
What happened? Was the race too intense and did it crash into a rock?
[Wait! Look at the scorpion's back!]
Ye Yinchuan immediately zoomed in with the camera.
On the back of the fallen scorpion was a poisonous stinger that gleamed with an ominous purple light!
And in the shadow of a rock not far away.
A small figure, entirely dark purple, with a pair of ferocious giant pincers and a segmented scorpion tail, slowly emerged.
Its eyes were filled with malice and provocation.
What is this thing? Is it also a Scorpio? It looks different!
[Looks fierce, seems much more menacing than a Scorpio!]
【This—I think I've seen this photo online, but I can't remember what it's called—】
Most of the viewers in the live stream didn't recognize this Pokémon.
"Pincer-tailed Scorpion".
Ye Yinchuan's calm voice cleared up everyone's doubts.
"Poison and Bug-type Pokémon are inherently ferocious and have a strong sense of territory."

"Although I didn't know this pincer-tailed scorpion would be here, there's no doubt that it attacked the scorpion."
The voice just fell.
The pincer-tailed scorpion seemed to feel that one successful strike wasn't enough.
Its scorpion tail was raised high, and it once again aimed at the scorpion that had lost the ability to resist, ready to launch a fatal attack!
"ah!"
Upon seeing this, the tyrannical Scorpio's eyes widened in fury, and it let out a roar, preparing to swoop down to rescue the fallen!
But someone is faster than it!
"Evil and strange."
Ye Yinchuan's voice rang out calmly.
"Ponyo!"
The treacherous and cunning guard, who had been on high alert for a long time, understood perfectly!
The ivy stick in its hand once again condensed a powerful water-based energy at its tip!
call out-!
A precise, high-pressure water jet shot through the air like a sharp arrow!
Before the pincer-tailed scorpion could react, it was struck hard by the water flow. With a scream, it was swept away like a kite with a broken string and instantly disappeared into the shadows of the canyon.
One strike and the enemy is defeated!
The Egui didn't stop; with a few leaps, it arrived beside the injured scorpion.
Ye Yinchuan immediately followed, took out some medicine from his backpack, and began to treat Scorpion's wounds.
The dominant Scorpio slowly landed not far away.
As it looked at Ye Yinchuan and Egui, who were healing their people, the kingly wariness and hostility in its eyes gradually faded, replaced by a complex expression of gratitude and recognition.
Under Ye Yinchuan's professional care, Scorpio's injuries quickly stabilized.
Ye Yinchuan stood up, his gaze calmly meeting that of the dominant scorpion.
"Scorpio, become my ally."
His voice, though not loud, was full of undeniable confidence.
"I came here for you."
The domineering Scorpio understood his words.
It remained silent, its sharp eyes scrutinizing Ye Yinchuan, then glancing at the tiny green creature beside it that had just displayed its formidable strength.
It acknowledges that this combination of human and Pokémon is very strong.
But taming it is not so easy.
Just then.
"Ponyo!"
Erguilan stepped forward and pointed the ivy stick in his hand towards the end of the canyon.
Then, he pointed to the overlord Scorpio.
Its eyes were filled with pure fighting spirit.
That means, it goes without saying.
Ye Yinchuan smiled and became the translator for the audience.
"Eguipeng means that their match just now is still undecided."
"If it wins—"
Ye Yinchuan's lips curled up slightly.
"This dominant scorpion is coming with me."
Upon hearing this, the domineering Scorpio's extinguished fighting spirit reignited—blazing fiercely once more!
It glanced behind it at the group of its people who were looking at it with concern.
He glanced again at the opponent in front of him, a man brimming with a challenging spirit.
"ah!!!"
It looked up to the sky and let out a roar that echoed throughout the canyon!
It accepted the bet!
The game is starting again!
However, the meaning behind it has changed somewhat.
"ah!"
With a command from the overlord Scorpion, it spread its wings and shot out like an arrow!
"Ponyo!"
Not to be outdone, Egui Peng kicked his limbs against the rock wall, transforming into a green lightning bolt that relentlessly pursued him!
In an instant, the wind howled through the canyon!
Two figures, one purple and one green, are staging an extreme display of speed and passion amidst treacherous rock walls and turbulent air currents!
[It's here! The final battle!]
This competition is so entertaining!
I bet on Scorpio to win! After all, it's their home turf, and they can fly!
[I'm betting on bad luck! You can always trust the streamer's Pokémon!]
however.
Just as the competition between the two entered its most crucial stage.
The Scorpios who were watching from the rear suddenly moved!
They all flapped their wings in unison, stirring up bursts of sand and dust, forming sand curtains in an attempt to block the view and path of the Eguilan!
Even more extreme, some swooped down, attempting to use their bodies to crash into the monsters running on the rock wall!
They will use their own methods to keep their king!
[Damn, this is so unsportsmanlike! It's just a props competition!]
[That's a foul! This game isn't fair!]
There's no way around it; they're a group, a unified entity. How could they just stand by and watch their dominant Scorpio lose?
Faced with this sudden interference, the speed of the strange creature was indeed affected.
It had to distract itself from the sand and collisions, and the distance between it and the dominant Scorpio was gradually widening.
The tyrant scorpion noticed its clansmen's actions. It turned around and glanced back, its eyes filled with complex emotions, but it did not speak up to stop them.
It seemed the scales of victory were about to tip.
however.
Despite being in dire straits, Egui's face remained completely calm.
In the brief moment of dodging, its body suddenly completed an incredible spin in mid-air!
hum!
A glimmer of light flashed!
The well mask on its face vanished instantly!
Instead, it was replaced by its original, vibrant painting—
【Green Grass Mask】!
The moment the mask changed, Erguilan's demeanor changed abruptly!
The fluidity of flowing water has vanished, replaced by the resilience and—swiftness—of plants and trees!
Its characteristic has changed from [water storage] back to [unyielding spirit]!
Its speed, at this moment, did not decrease but increased!
"Ponyo!"
Ergui let out a clear shout!
It no longer passively dodged, but actively faced the scorpions that were interfering with it!
The ivy stick in its hand danced, creating a dense, impenetrable green afterimage!
boom! boom! boom!
Every swing landed precisely on the Scorpio's back, the area least likely to be injured!
The force was just right.
It can repel them without causing any real damage!
[Vine Whip] Dance wildly!
In an instant, Egui Peng seemed to transform into a war god with three heads and six arms, forcefully carving a path through the encirclement of the scorpion swarm!
This is Urgot, the only Pokémon in the world!
Is this mask equipment? The attributes and skills changed when I switched to it?
That was so cool! That move was absolutely amazing!
[Scorpio Overlord: ??? You can transform?]
Having broken through the clan's blockade, the speed of the Evil Ones erupted completely!
The distance between it and the dominant Scorpio was rapidly closing!
Fifty meters!
Thirty meters!
Ten meters!
In the final sprint, the two figures moved forward almost side by side!
The finish line, the tallest rock, is right in front of us!
A resolute glint flashed in the eyes of the tyrannical scorpion. It suddenly folded its wings and swooped down towards the finish line like a cannonball!
This is the fastest and most direct way!
Erguilan then made a move that left everyone speechless!
With a powerful push off the rock face, its small body soared into the sky!
Then, he hurled the ivy stick in his hand like a javelin!
The wooden stick was precisely inserted into a crevice beneath the rock at the finish line!
Meanwhile, Ergui, using the support of the wooden stick, performed a graceful flip in the air, just like a gymnast!
finally.
Just before the overlord Scorpio landed.
Its feet, lightly and steadily, touched the top of the rock.
The outcome is decided.
The entire canyon fell into a deathly silence.
All the Scorpios stopped what they were doing and stared in disbelief at the small, yet seemingly radiant green figure on the rock.
The domineering Scorpio slowly raised its head.
It watched as that being defeated its opponent in a way it could not comprehend at all.
There was no resentment or anger in his eyes.
Only shock and shame remained.
And, wholeheartedly convinced.
It lost.
We lost completely and utterly.
It slowly lowered its proud head.
"ah----"
A low growl signifies its submission.
Ye Yinchuan smiled and walked up from below.
He took out a blank Poké Ball, and instead of throwing it, he gently placed it in front of the Totem Scorpion.
"Welcome to the team, my new friend."
A red light flashed.
The Poké Ball didn't shake at all.
Ding.
A soft sound announced the successful subjugation.
[Congratulations to the streamer! You've won the title of Scorpio!]
[That's so classic! Using Pokémon to catch Pokémon is just so elegant!]
So, are trainers all this relaxed?
[You're wrong to think that way. You haven't mentioned the cost of raising Pokémon at all!]
Ye Yinchuan picked up the Poké Ball and nodded in satisfaction.
Although this Gliscor has not yet fully realized the potential of a Totem Pokémon, with proper training, it can reach an unimaginable upper limit.
Then, in front of all the Scorpios and facing the live stream camera, he slowly took something else out of his backpack.
It was a fang—transparent in texture, flowing with energy, and exuding a sharp aura.
"Subduing them is only the first step."
A mysterious smile appeared on Ye Yinchuan's lips.
"Remember what I told you? Scorpions do have evolved forms, but often only Scorpions with the potential to become dominant have the opportunity to evolve!"
