Dimensional Invasion: I Can Fish for All Heavens

Chapter 412 The Role Standing in Opposition to Humanity in the Vast Array of Human "Creation"

On Earth today, among the human race, there are only two universally acknowledged supreme experts whose strength has reached the sixth rank, and both of them come from the Great Xia Dynasty.

They are truly beings standing at the pinnacle of the real world, their strength far exceeding the realm of ordinary power. They are veritable human-shaped natural disasters, the cornerstones of a nation's stability, and each possesses the ability to easily destroy a great power.

This is why the Great Xia is now known as the strongest country.

Currently, there are only three human powerhouses at the fifth rank, the "nation-protecting" level, who are publicly identified as such:

The bear's wielder of "Thor's Hammer," Ivan Reznov; Cao Cao, the leader of the "Great Wei" organization; and Joan of Arc, the saint of Gaul.

Perhaps there are other fifth-tier powerhouses among the humans on Earth who are unaware of their existence and are deliberately concealing their strength, but currently, only these three are known to exist.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration for them to say that Joan of Arc's strength ranks among the top five among humans; rather, in their view, Joan of Arc's strength could rank third.

However, if we include those powerful beings from other worlds who descended through dimensional rifts and originated from human creations, then the ranking would have to go down.

Let alone the fifth rank, there are even dimensional beings with the strength to the sixth rank. This is why Jeanne said that her strength is not considered strong in the real world.

However, in the eyes of her subordinates, General Joan of Arc was not a "dimensional being" but rather the holder of the template for the role of the heavens. Therefore, when measuring the strength and ranking of humanity itself, those "dimensional beings" should not be included in the calculation.

Sesshomaru listened quietly, his golden pupils revealing no emotion, as he simply memorized all the information.

Joan of Arc, at the fifth rank, is stronger than him and ranks among the top ten among humans.

Ye Xuan, who is at the sixth or possibly seventh rank, is the strongest human in the real world. He can reach even higher levels by using "weapons".

His potential was assessed as potentially reaching the fifth or even sixth rank.

The gap doesn't seem that big.

However, a human once said, "The spiritual revival has only just begun, and General Jeanne d'Arc's strength will definitely become even stronger afterward."

The spiritual revival has just begun?
Does this mean that Joan of Arc, Ye Xuan, and all the strong among humans did not take long to reach their current level of power?
The world's energy environment is in a period of rapid growth and explosion. Their power is far from reaching its limit and has enormous and continuous room for growth in the future.
If that's the case, then what these humans meant by "fifth or even sixth rank" when they were "assessing" his potential is more like a final potential ceiling.

They believed that even considering the infinite possibilities brought about by the revival of spiritual energy, his growth potential was ultimately limited, given his foundation and talent, and he could not break through that predetermined limit.

Or perhaps, in their subconscious, they still see him as an "outsider," a "story character," whose potential and fate have long been limited by that "story" framework, and reaching the fifth or sixth level is already the limit?
The continuation of the "spiritual revival" is more of an opportunity for people in the real world, but he may not be able to fully seize it, or its effects may be diminished for him.

Regardless of the possibility, they all point to the same viewpoint.

That was the highest expectation these humans had for him, which was merely to be on par with the current Joan of Arc and to reach the level of the past "Ye Xuan".

They were full of expectations for the future and for those humans, believing that their strength would definitely become stronger in the future, but they did not really regard him as someone who could stand on equal footing with those strong people in the future.

Although he had thought of this, Sesshomaru did not say anything.

Even though his inner pride and so-called dignity made him instinctively resist this judgment, believing that he would surely surpass all expectations in the future.

But he also knew that simply making this assumption was meaningless.

As a dog demon born above all other demons and of noble blood, and as the son of Douya King and Lingyue Fairy, he understands the objectivity and importance of race, bloodline, and potential far more deeply than any other living being.

He has personally witnessed the barriers that countless monsters could not break through in their entire lives, and he has also personally felt the natural advantages brought by his own bloodline.

Denying the importance of potential is a foolish form of self-comfort for the weak.

He cannot, because of his own momentary dissatisfaction, blindly deny the possibilities in the objective assessments made by humanity based on a wealth of information, including his known "fate".

That is not the act of a strong person, but the act of a coward.

Right now, he knows too little about this "real world," the so-called "spiritual energy" system, or the specific information about those powerful humans.

Any anger or confidence derived from a lack of information is empty and laughable.

His pride wouldn't allow him to make such a shallow reaction.

The best response is understanding and insight.

After he had acquired enough information, personally experienced the power of spiritual energy, thoroughly understood the basis and essence of the human power system in the real world, and even witnessed the power of those so-called sixth- and seventh-tier experts,
He can naturally use his wisdom and experience to combine all variables and deduce the most accurate and truthful conclusion about his future.

If, at that time, humanity's assessment is wrong, he will crush it with facts. If the assessment is correct, he will seek ways to break through that so-called "upper limit."

In any case, what he needs now is not these pointless emotions, but calm observation, efficient learning, and the unwavering pursuit of his own strength.

The world did not expect that after Duanmu Yan of the Great Xia, new dimensional beings would descend so quickly, and they would descend in succession on the "Empire on which the sun never sets" and the "Gallic Rooster".

Even more unexpectedly, the dimensional beings that descended upon the "Empire on which the sun never sets" would slaughter the lives of an entire city.

According to an official announcement from the "Empire on which the sun never sets," En Daguba Jeba, the strongest member of the Gurongi race from the world of "Kamen Rider Kuuga," has descended upon a city called "Ash Valley" in the northwest of the "Empire on which the sun never sets."

This small city, with a population of nearly 400,000 and mainly engaged in textile and machinery manufacturing, suffered unimaginable devastation in a very short period of time after Daguba's arrival.

No one knows why Daguba did this, but for Daguba as a Gurongi, it seems that no particular reason is needed.

Because he himself had done similar things in his own world.

However, what he originally killed were only virtual human lives in "tokusatsu dramas," but now he is killing real people in the real world who have flesh and blood, families, and dreams!

This is a completely different concept!

In the footage released by "The Sun Never Sets," although the images are somewhat blurry, the all-consuming flames, the towering holy pillar of light colliding with ultimate darkness to unleash a destructive energy storm, and the final, desolate ravine resembling the entrance to hell—all these elements are clearly visible.
All the fragmented pieces describe the horror of that battle and the tragedy it brought.

Countries around the world have considered the worst-case scenario that might occur if "dimensional beings" were to arrive.

They had long envisioned the arrival of powerful and inherently hostile "dimensional beings" who would attack humanity in the real world, causing massive casualties and even threatening the survival of nations.
However, the "dimensional beings" that have appeared in the Great Xia Dynasty several times are too deceptive.

As "dimensional beings" descended upon the Great Xia territory and quickly integrated into it, they not only helped develop technology but also became part of its "power," helping them resist the impact of mutated creatures.

With the help of these "dimensional beings," the national strength of the Great Xia Dynasty grew at a visible rate.

This inadvertently gave them an optimistic idea that they knew it was "wrong" but couldn't help "fantasizing" about: the arrival of "dimensional life" seemed to be a "good thing," a "godsend" where the opportunities far outweighed the risks.

The vast majority of the public is immersed in an almost fanatical anticipation.

They eagerly discussed, voted, and hoped that the characters from their favorite stories would come to life and become their heroes or guardians.

The endless stream of "most desired character rankings" on the internet is the best embodiment of this mentality.

The arrival of Daguba and the disappearance of Ash Valley were like a sudden, heavy blow that shattered the glass wall built on fantasy and wishful thinking.

It slammed the bloody, darkest possibilities right in everyone's faces.

It turns out that what descends from the other side of the "dimensional" may not be a hero who brings good news, but rather a "natural disaster" that brings absolute destruction and cannot be communicated with reason or emotion!
Its impact far surpasses any previous arrival of "dimensional life".

After the optimism evaporated instantly, it was replaced by deep fear, vigilance, and a forced, more pragmatic focus.

All nations must once again acknowledge a fact they already knew but had become complacent about due to the success of Great Xia.

That is, in the vast "creation" of mankind, while there are certainly positive characters that show brilliance and beauty, there are also a greater number of "villains" and "non-human beings" that are more complex in appearance and often more destructive.

It's impossible for every character that appears in reality to be a "character" who is naturally on the side of "justice" and "humanity" like the "angels" and "armored warriors" that descended from the Great Xia Dynasty.

The assessment of the "dimensional life" that will arrive in the future must revert to the worst-case scenario.

The primary assumption regarding the arrival of any new "dimensional life" will no longer be "ally," but rather "threat."

If the arrival of the beings demonstrates the possibility of communication, possesses human-like emotions or understandable goals, and follows logical behavioral norms, then nations might be able to breathe a sigh of relief.

This means there is room for negotiation, constraints, transactions, and even cooperation.

But what if it were a being like Daguba, who is incapable of communication and understanding, whose core motivation is completely contrary to the well-being of humanity, who is only interested in fighting or destruction, and who is indifferent to his own life and death?

Therefore, any negotiation, deterrence, or compromise would be meaningless.

The only solution is the most extreme and cruel one.

That is, in the initial stage of its arrival, before it causes irreparable and enormous destruction, to use all means to completely "kill" it as quickly as possible.
