The air was filled with the cold scent of rocks and the unique stench of sky predators.
A slender yet upright figure stood on the edge of the cliff.
Beneath their feet lay a bottomless abyss, shrouded in mist and clouds.
Opposite, dozens of meters away, lies another sheer cliff, equally steep and precipitous.
Lin Che looked down at the bottom of the shadowy canyon, where he could vaguely see the blurry shadows of wild elves fighting fiercely and hear bursts of frenzied roars.
He withdrew his gaze, his expression calm.
"Come out, Arcanine."
A flash of red light, and a magnificent beast, nearly two meters tall at the shoulders, with fur like burning golden flames, silently appeared beside him.
It's not your average speed dog.
Beneath its streamlined body, every muscle contained explosive power, compressed to its limit after being forged a thousand times by the Flame Stone Slabs. Its eyes lacked the docility of ordinary canine spirits, instead filled with the majesty of a king and an arrogant disdain for the world.
It stood there quietly, the air beneath its feet slightly distorted by the high temperature, which was enough to prove the terrifying energy surging within it.
Lin Che reached out and gently stroked the soft, warm mane on the Growlithe's neck, feeling the powerful, pulsating heartbeat in his palm, like a small volcano.
"Ready, buddy?"
His voice wasn't loud, but it clearly pierced through the howling wind.
"We will conquer this canyon in a way that no one can imagine."
Let's try some extreme sports!
The Arcanine turned its head and affectionately rubbed its massive head against its owner's shoulder.
next second.
It suddenly raised its head, looking at the sky that was fragmented by the canyon, its chest heaving violently.
"Ouch——!"
A loud, high-pitched roar, filled with boundless fighting spirit and excitement, suddenly erupted!
The roar was like a dragon's cry, like thunder, instantly overwhelming the raging winds in the canyon, transforming into visible sound waves that rolled out, announcing the arrival of the king!
Lin Che flipped over and straddled the broad back of the Growlithe, gripping its mane tightly with both hands, and lowered his body slightly, becoming one with his ace partner.
His eyes, sharp as knives, instantly locked onto an inconspicuous protrusion on the opposite cliff.
That's it!
"on!"
No running start.
No buffering.
The moment the command was given, Arcanine's powerful hind legs slammed against the rocks on the ground!
"boom!"
With a dull thud, the hard cliffside rocks were stomped open by this brute force, creating spiderweb-like cracks!
The figures of a man and a dog are no longer made of flesh and blood.
It transformed into a golden lightning bolt that tore through the air, hurtling towards the cliff dozens of meters away with a terrifying initial speed that was completely imperceptible to the naked eye!
The wind exploded in my ears, turning into a sharp shriek.
The world before my eyes was instantly stretched, distorted, and blurred.
The immense feeling of weightlessness would have made an ordinary person faint on the spot, but Lin Che's body remained as steady as a rock, his gaze fixed on the predetermined landing point.
Just before the body was about to pass its highest point and begin to fall.
"boom!"
Arcanine's four paws landed heavily and precisely on the protruding rock opposite!
The violent impact caused the rock to shatter instantly, sending fragments flying everywhere!
But that's enough!
With a fraction of a second of insignificant leverage, Growlithe's terrifyingly powerful core strength suddenly erupted, forcibly twisting its entire body in mid-air and launching it out once again!
It did not fall to the bottom of the canyon.
It did not climb upwards.
It chose the third path.
An incredible "parkour" route that involves high-speed movement along a steep, almost vertical rock face!
The golden lightning bolt began its heart-stopping sprint back and forth between two sheer cliffs tens of meters apart!
boom! boom! boom!
Its four sharp claws drew blinding sparks on the rock face with each strike, and each stomp produced a dull roar.
The solid rock face beneath its feet is as fragile as a biscuit.
What seems like an insurmountable barrier to ordinary people becomes a smooth road for them to traverse at will.
An invisible staircase stretches wildly into the depths of the canyon beneath its feet.
Its figure was agile and swift, sometimes leaving a golden afterimage on the left rock wall, and sometimes appearing on the right cliff a fraction of a second later.
This is no longer running.
This is flying close to a sheer cliff!
This incredible mobility, this violent aesthetic that perfectly combines its strength and speed, fully demonstrates its unparalleled and terrifying power as Lin Che's ace Pokémon!
They perfectly avoided the complex vines and swamps at the bottom of the canyon, as well as the wild elves fighting fiercely for territory.
There is no pointless consumption.
There was no unnecessary fighting.
They advanced rapidly toward the core of the secret realm in a way that ordinary people could neither understand nor replicate, and in the most efficient manner.
Lin Che sat steadily on the back of the Growlithe, his body rising and falling rhythmically with each of its leaps.
The howling wind made his clothes flutter, but it couldn't disturb the flames burning in his eyes.
The rapidly receding scenery appeared as two blurry blocks of color in his eyes.
He felt no fear or tension.
Only the strong possess the pride and confidence to trample heaven and earth under their feet and manipulate the rules at will.
The ruler of the skies?
He raised his head and looked at the increasingly gloomy sky deep in the canyon.
You'll find out soon.
Who is the true master of this sky?

Chapter 45 The Eye of Truth, the Flying Gem on the Cliff! A Song of Ice and Fire, the Flying Gem is in hand!
Deep within the Wind-Cutting Canyon, the sound of the wind is no longer a simple howl, but transforms into countless raging beasts, crashing and roaring between the narrow rock walls.
Each gust of air carried a blade-like sharpness, scraping across the rocks and leaving marks of varying depths.
Lin Che lowered his body, pressing close to the broad, warm back of the Growlithe.
A man and his dog are struggling to traverse a rocky area formed by collapsed rocks.
With each landing of its agile limbs, the Growlithe makes a steady and powerful thud on the gravel, its muscles bulging beneath its fluffy orange fur, showcasing its amazing explosive power and sense of balance.
"Roar!"
The Growlithe let out a low warning sound and suddenly shifted half a meter to the left.
Almost simultaneously, a dark brown shadow, accompanied by a shrill screech, flashed past the spot where it had just been, its sharp beak spitting out a string of dazzling sparks from the hard rock.
It's a big-billed finches again.
Lin Che's brows furrowed into a knot.
He looked up, his gaze piercing through the chaotic air currents, and saw a dark, dense flock of birds circling overhead in the fragmented sky.
That was an aerial force composed of dozens, or even hundreds, of large-billed finches.
These creatures are not particularly strong individually, with most not even reaching the peak of the ordinary level. However, their extreme territoriality and fearless group attacks make any creature that tries to venture into this area suffer a terrible headache.
They're like a swarm of persistent flies, extremely difficult to get rid of.
"Growlithe, use Flame Wheel to scatter them!"
Lin Che's instructions were calm and decisive.
"Ouch!"
Arcanine roared to the sky, its running body suddenly curling up as a layer of scorching flames instantly enveloped its entire body.
It transformed into a burning meteorite, leaving a scorching trail across the rugged pile of rocks, and ruthlessly crashed into yet another wave of swooping big-billed sparrows.
Amidst sharp, mournful cries, several large-billed finches, unable to dodge in time, had their wings singed by the flames, billowing black smoke, and fled in disarray toward the sky.
However, this brief victory brought no peace.
More companions were enraged, and even more frenzied attacks swept in from all directions.
Lin Che once again deeply felt the importance of aerial units.
If he had a powerful flying companion who could conduct reconnaissance at high altitudes and even establish air superiority, his current situation would be a hundred times more comfortable.
"We must find a perfect flying partner as soon as possible."
The idea became clearer and more urgent in his mind than ever before.
Just as he was getting annoyed by the endless swarm of Finch, and was about to order Arcanine to retreat temporarily and change the direction of exploration,
A sudden change occurred!
