Dimensional Invasion: I Can Fish for All Heavens

Chapter 344 A battle fought with all our might as a sign of respect for the strong!

Despite being the most elite special forces unit, they weren't even qualified to intervene.

How can anyone accept this feeling of powerlessness?
Extraordinary! Extraordinary! This is the path to the extraordinary. As an ordinary person, even with the most advanced equipment, he cannot intervene in the battles that truly belong to the strong. He can only watch helplessly and do nothing.

How can anyone accept this?!

"The vampire transformed from the Stone Mask is ultimately flawed. You can wait a little longer. With your contributions, if we are able to acquire more suitable treasures from the heavens, we will definitely arrange it for you."

But this wait has lasted until now.

How rare are the treasures of the heavens?
Not to mention the powerful treasures of the heavens.

Those who obtain celestial treasures with potential, even those whose potential is unknown, will choose to use them immediately. This is especially true for celestial treasures, except for things like Devil Fruits. Most celestial treasures are only recognized as such by their owners after they have gained the owner's approval.

The treasures that are actually sold to the Celestial Pivot Bureau are often just chicken bones that are neither useful nor worth discarding.

Even so, once they learned that the "treasures of the heavens" could open the door to the cultivation system of spiritual energy, they also gained immense value.

"How long we have to wait?"

The commander questioned himself inwardly.

His gaze swept across the figures on the battlefield, figures so indistinct they were barely visible. This question gnawed at his heart like a venomous snake. He didn't regret not using the Stone Mask, because the vampires transformed from the Stone Mask did have their flaws. If he could, he would certainly want a more powerful celestial treasure.

But now, he hesitated.

"boom!"

Another earth-shattering roar.

This time, everyone clearly saw a figure fly out like a cannonball and crash heavily into the distant mountain wall.

The entire mountain shook violently from the impact, and countless rocks tumbled down.

Amidst the smoke and dust, Lin Xiu slowly straightened up from the depression in the mountain wall.

His clothes were covered in dust, and there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, but there were no obvious wounds on his body.

He raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.

During the battle, he focused too much on the demon sword Murasame in the mutated ape's hand, forgetting that the mutated ape's body length far exceeded that of him as a human.

In the clash of blades, it kicked itself in the abdomen, sending him flying.

This was a future he hadn't even seen before the limits of his talent.

The mutated ape slowly approached, its footsteps exceptionally clear on the battlefield.

The demon sword Murasame in its hand hung low, its tip dragging a thin trail on the ground.

“I am not proficient with blades; in this respect, I am far inferior to you.”

"But in the end, all you need to do with this kind of thing is keep hacking and slashing."

"As long as you have fast enough eyesight, speed, reaction time, and strength to counterattack the opponent's weapon and strike them before they can react, that's enough."

The mutated ape stared directly at Lin Xiu and spoke calmly, but the next second, its tone changed.

"However, I am indeed not good at it, and I can even say I don't like it."

"It's too short and too light, and it's not easy to use."

"Human weapons are not suitable for me."

It casually swung the demon sword; the movement was precise, but it clearly carried a hint of discomfort.

Even with its superior physical abilities, which allow it to easily master the skills of using any weapon, it cannot overcome this instinctive aversion.

If this sword weren't a "treasure of the heavens" with special abilities, it wouldn't have even given it a second glance.

Then, in Lin Xiu's view, the mutated ape threw itself backward without looking back, and the demon sword Murasame drew an arc in the air and deeply embedded itself in the tree trunk behind it.

The blade was completely embedded in the tree, leaving only the black hilt exposed.

"As a sign of respect for the strong, I will go all out from now on."

The mutated ape spoke, its muscles taut like steel, every inch of its body containing explosive power.

"If you win, the beast tide will end here. I will take them away and wait until we are stronger."

"If you lose, we will keep moving forward."

Lin Xiu did not answer.

He slowly exhaled a breath of stale air and held the long sword horizontally in front of his chest.

The blade gleamed coldly in the sunlight, reflecting his resolute face.

The air between the two seemed to freeze.

Both the members of the Tian Shu Bureau and the mutated creatures fell silent at this moment.

"boom!"

A muffled thud broke the silence.

The mutated ape suddenly vanished, leaving only a sonic boom cloud in the air.

Lin Xiu instinctively raised his longsword to block in front of his chest, and the next second, a silver-gray iron fist slammed into the blade.

"clang--!"

Amidst the deafening clang of metal, Lin Xiu's feet plowed two deep furrows into the ground.

The blade trembled violently, and the tiger's mouth instantly split open, with blood dripping down the hilt.

The mutated ape's left fist followed closely behind. This punch was at a tricky angle and aimed directly at the brain. Lin Xiu turned his head to dodge, the wind from the punch grazing his cheek, and the resulting gust of wind exploded into a spray of blood near his ear.

"Bang!" A heavy knee strike landed on Lin Xiu's abdomen. He groaned and his body arched. The mutated ape's right elbow then rose high, ready to strike down like a battle axe.

In that instant, Lin Xiu's longsword slashed diagonally, the blade cutting a line of blood across the ape's chest. Then, he lowered his body, dodging the mutated ape's attack, and used the recoil to roll away and create distance.

The mutated ape looked down at the wound on its chest, blood dripping down its silvery-gray fur. It lowered its head, stuck out its tongue and licked the wound, then stood up and looked at Lin Xiu.

"boom!"

Its figure blurred again, and its body rushed towards Lin Xiu. Its right fist was pulled back to its limit, and the muscles in its arm were compressed to the extreme like a spring. It was suddenly released when it got close to Lin Xiu!
"boom!!!"

The air in front of the fist is compressed to its limit, forming a white shock wave that is visible to the naked eye.

Lin Xiu's longsword was knocked away the moment it made contact. He crossed his arms to protect his chest and was blasted away like a rag doll.

"Crash!!!"

As Lin Xiu flew out, he slid across the ground for hundreds of meters before stopping his retreat.

"puff!!!"

He struggled to prop himself up, blood gushing from his mouth, his right arm bent unnaturally and broken.

In his line of sight, the tall figure of the mutated ape was slowly approaching. Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Xiu grabbed his right arm with his left hand and pushed hard!
"Crack!"

The cracking sound of the bones realigning was teeth-grinding, but he didn't hesitate for a second.

With his right hand outstretched, the long sword in the distance hummed and flew back into his palm under the control of his spiritual power.

Seeing this, the ape did not press its advantage, but stood still and waited quietly for Lin Xiu to adjust his body.

This is its respect for the strong, and also its absolute confidence in its own strength.

"Can we continue?"

Its voice carried a hint of anticipation.

Lin Xiu did not answer. He slowly stood up, flicking away the dust that clung to the blade, and the cold light shone once more.

This action says it all.

"Truly, a powerful will."

The mutated ape sighed, its figure vanished abruptly, and the next second, a heavy punch slammed into Lin Xiu's abdomen!
"boom!"

Lin Xiu's body flew backward again, crashing into several large trees along the way. His ribs made a cracking sound as if they could not bear the weight, and his internal organs seemed to be churned into a mess.

But just as his body was about to hit the ground, he suddenly swung his knife with his right hand, the blade drawing an arc on the ground, using the recoil to stabilize himself.

He straightened up, swaying slightly, his long sword supporting him on the ground. Blood dripped from the tip of the sword, forming a small puddle on the ground.

The mutated apes launched an attack like a storm.

A whip kick swept in, and Lin Xiu barely managed to raise his knife to block it, but the force of the kick caused his tiger's mouth to split open; then a straight punch landed heavily on his chest!

"Crack!"

The sound of his sternum breaking was clearly audible. Lin Xiu's body was thrown around like a rag doll, rolling dozens of times on the ground before coming to a stop.

"cough"

He tried to prop himself up, but his left hand was too weak.

My vision began to blur, and all I could hear was the roar of blood flowing.

"Are we going to lose?"

I can't give up yet.

The thought had barely surfaced when he ruthlessly extinguished it.

"No! I must win! I absolutely must win!"

Driven by this unwavering determination, Lin Xiu actually stood up again! His body had reached its limit, but his will grew stronger.

Spiritual energy surged wildly through the meridians, forcibly supporting the body on the verge of collapse.

A look of shock appeared in the mutated ape's eyes.

It never expected that this human could still stand up. Such willpower, one would say, is truly worthy of being human.
In that case, as a sign of respect for the strong, it should also go all out!
"Final blow."

He sat low to the ground, his right fist tucked into his waist.

This is the most reasonable punching posture learned from humans. All the power of the whole body is concentrated in this punch, and the surrounding air is distorted by this power.

Lin Xiu also adopted the final stance.

Although his right arm was useless and his internal organs were severely damaged, his eyes remained as firm as ever, even showing a kind of "fierceness" that had never appeared before!
"boom!"

The two figures clashed again!

The shockwave erupted from the two people, sending plumes of smoke and dust billowing into the sky and obscuring the entire area.

When the dust settled, all that remained in the center of the battlefield was a giant crater.

At the bottom of the pit, Lin Xiu's long sword was broken, with only half of it held in his hand. His breath was so weak that it was almost imperceptible, and his body swayed precariously before collapsing to the ground.

The mutated ape had a deep wound on its chest that exposed the bone, but compared to Lin Xiu, it was only a minor injury. Moreover, with its self-healing ability, it would heal in no time.

It looked at Lin Xiu, who had collapsed to the ground, his life hanging in the balance, and its eyes revealed deep respect.

Respect is one thing, but it won't change its decision just because it respects the strong.

"you lose."

"As agreed, I will continue my advance towards Yunchuan City."
