Qingwu had arrived at Road 47 long ago, but he never expected Road 47 to be full of informants.

Qingwu, in his previous life, was an elite trained by Team Rocket. How could he not see that Road 47 was filled with Team Rocket's robotic Pokémon? If he made the slightest move, he would be discovered by Team Rocket.

It seems Team Rocket has also made thorough arrangements.

Those old silver dollars in the Alliance have also deployed people everywhere. If he makes the slightest move, three or four Alliance trainers might jump out and attack him in groups.

Qingwu's method of breaking the situation was simple: who made Qingwu possess a Ditto?

Duyu was a trainer affiliated with the Alliance, and he was an elite trainer of the Alliance.

His main Pokémon were Beedrill and Aerodactyl.

At this moment, he was squatting in a patch of grass, motionless on the ground.

Duyu wore a camouflage hat on his head, with two small bundles of branches hanging from it for concealment.

Duyu also had a thick layer of insect repellent on him, otherwise, the wild mosquitoes would not be vegetarians. Even through his clothes, they could instantly give him a body full of big bumps, itchy and painful.

Duyu was extremely well hidden, so much so that even his own teammates couldn't detect his presence.

Just as Duyu was about to make a slight movement in his stiffening joints, he suddenly smelled a strong floral fragrance. Immediately after, Duyu became insensible.

"Heh heh, this Alliance trainer is so well hidden, yet he was discovered by the big bat?" Qingwu said with lingering surprise.

If he hadn't, on a whim, used the big bat, and the big bat hadn't used ultrasonic waves to detect the grass, then Qingwu really wouldn't have known that there was someone hiding here.

"Just right, this person is about the same height as me; I can transform into him." Qingwu took out Duyu's Alliance ID card and Poké Balls.

"Your name is Duyu, good name. Looks like everything is going smoothly." The floral fragrance Duyu smelled was a high-grade hypnotic drug formulated by Qingwu.

This kind of sleeping potion could make people sleep for three days and three nights. At least, Duyu would only wake up after this incident was over.

What would happen after Duyu woke up was not something Qingwu had to worry about.

"Ditto, transform me into him." Ditto carefully examined every detail on Duyu's body.

Then, Ditto's body continuously elongated, swallowing Qingwu whole. Ditto transformed into Duyu's appearance, squirming.

After doing all this, Qingwu just happened to hear the sound of someone approaching.

"Duyu, Duyu~~" Duyu's companion shouted loudly. A black-haired youth in camouflage clothes rushed out of the grass.

This action startled several of his companions who were looking for Duyu.

"You almost scared us to death! Where did you go just now? Inspector Du is gathering us." Duyu's companion said unhappily.

"Duyu" chuckled honestly, revealing a set of neat white teeth.

"Duyu's stealth technique is very good. We can't find him every time, so we just get used to it." A familiar companion of Duyu explained.

"He is an expert in wilderness survival. In the previous Alliance wilderness survival competition, he took first place," another companion emphasized.

"Let's go, Inspector Du is gathering everyone." Duyu's companion pulled "Duyu" and hurried towards the main group.

By the time Qingwu arrived, most of the people had already gathered.

"Why are you so slow? Come here quickly, otherwise Inspector Du will get angry!" Another tall man with dark skin, who was also very familiar with Duyu, shouted anxiously.

Qingwu felt a bit awkward now. What if someone familiar with Duyu discovered he was an impostor? So he randomly chose a person, thinking that this person also had many friends.

"It's not Duyu, this guy. He hid in a remote place, and we all couldn't find him. We spent a long time looking for him." Duyu's companion muttered softly.

"Indeed, this Duyu is quite good at hiding. He chose a very good hiding spot, just a blind corner in the line of sight. If you didn't look carefully, you really wouldn't be able to tell where someone was hiding," Qingwu muttered to himself.

"Everyone, pay attention. These two days, we must strengthen our vigilance. We must take five steps and one post. Once something happens, immediately fire a signal flare to warn. I still need to pick a few people from you to enter the Tower of Burials with me," Du said to the Alliance trainers.

"Just you, you, and you." Du randomly picked a few people, and coincidentally picked Qingwu.

"This luck is too good, isn't it?" If Qingwu hadn't cultivated the power of the Dragon Control and concealed the dragon aura on his body, Qingwu would have suspected that Du was deliberately targeting him.

"You few follow me, and deal with some anomalies. The rest of you disperse and continue your defense." Du said to the many Alliance trainers.

"Okay, Inspector Du," many trainers said in unison, then dispersed.

"Everyone currently has an urgent mission. We need someone to guard the top floor of the Tower of Burials. Your main job is to deal with the Ghost-type Pokémon of the Tower of Burials."

"Don't let these Ghost-type Pokémon attack the top floor of the Tower of Burials and disturb our mission objective, do you understand?" Du said, looking at the people he had chosen, with a joyful expression.

"At the same time, you also need to guard the equipment on the top floor of the Tower of Burials. Be sure not to let Ghost-type Pokémon get close to these facilities, which are the key to completing our mission," Du reiterated.

The Tower of Burials consisted of ten floors in total. The first floor was filled with countless tombstones. Many Pokémon and humans slept here forever. The buried were ordinary Pokémon and some common people.

Qingwu felt a chilling coldness as soon as he stepped into the Tower of Burials. Countless ghost fires floated on the tombstones, looking somewhat eerie.

"The Ghost-type Pokémon in this Tower of Burials are much stronger than the Ghost-type Pokémon on Trial Island. Otherwise, why would so much Yin energy remain? It seems the Alliance has also put in a lot of effort."

"...Otherwise, these thousand-year-old ghosts wouldn't have given up their territory so easily." Qingwu looked at the few remaining Ghost-type Pokémon and knew that the Alliance had already cleaned out the Tower of Burials.

But even after cleaning it out, there were still many fish that slipped through the net.

Qingwu and his team's job was to prevent these fish from slipping through the net, to prevent the fish from dying and the net breaking, thus disrupting the Alliance's plan.

The entire Tower of Burials was very large. It took Qingwu a full hour to walk from the first floor to the tenth floor.

The higher up he went, the fewer the tombstones, and the stronger the Pokémon buried.

These were all Pokémon that had rendered great service to the Alliance. After heroic sacrifices, they slept here forever.

Qingwu felt that the Alliance, like Team Rocket, buried powerful Pokémon here, hoping that the souls of these Pokémon could transform into powerful Ghost-type Pokémon, and then be used by the Alliance.

"We've arrived," Du stopped at the gate of the tenth floor. Du directly pushed open the gate of the tenth floor of the Tower of Burials. Qingwu saw a huge instrument and equipment placed on a cleared ground on the tenth floor at first glance.

The equipment (which was quite good) was placed directly facing the altar of the Tower of Burials. This was where ancient people dedicated their faith, a place where their faith was split.

Engraved on the altar were statues of Rayquaza, Groudon, and Kyogre.

In ancient times, Rayquaza was known as the God of the Sky, Groudon as the God of the Earth, and Kyogre as the God of the Oceans.

When the Bell Tower had not yet been built, Rayquaza, Groudon, and Kyogre were renowned deities in the Chengdu region. Countless believers came here to offer their faith to the three gods.

But for some unknown reason, Rayquaza, Groudon, and Kyogre left this place with their followers, seeking a new sea area. Groudon created the land, Kyogre created the rivers, and Rayquaza dispelled the poisonous gas from this continent.

Ultimately, this continent became a flourishing place, a paradise where countless Pokémon thrived, known as the Fangyuan region.

Those followers who left with the three gods established the Pillar of the Sky in the Fangyuan region. They worshipped the three gods for generations, and finally established a sect called the Glass Gate.

Qingwu looked around curiously. Many traces of Groudon, Kyogre, and Rayquaza were carved here.
