Dimensional Invasion: I Can Fish for All Heavens

Chapter 435 [The Sword Saint's Blessing]: History Enters Another Form of Closure.
Ye Xuan calmly gazed at the "Beast of the End" before him, a slight hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

With his current level of perception, he can naturally detect any unusual activity across the entire Blue Star.

Even if he doesn't do it on his own initiative, the power of [Gale and Raging Waves] will transmit information to him in the form of "wind".

This is why he knew Parker was coming.

He didn't have much ill will towards Parker himself.

In the world of "Re:Zero", his fatherly love for Emilia, the female protagonist, is deep enough that from Emilia's perspective, or even from Subaru's perspective, one would not feel much ill will towards him, at most just saying a few words like "the god of civil war".

However, if we disregard the emotional bond between Parker and Emilia, its behavior makes it difficult to gain favor.

He appears calm and composed, but is actually very independent and self-willed.

They seem like reasonable people, but their inner values ​​are firmly established and cannot be easily persuaded.

Although he considers others, it is only on the premise that Emilia is alive. Once Emilia dies, he cares nothing for anything else and only wants to fulfill his vow to destroy the world, even mocking Reinhard who comes to stop him.

However, none of that is the most important thing. What is important is that it seems to always be slacking off and is often absent at crucial moments, but once Emilia dies, it will destroy the world without hesitation and kill Subaru Natsuki, who has struggled countless times and tried to save everything.

This is why he is known as the "God of Civil War".

Unexpectedly, after arriving in the real world and knowing that it was a completely different world, it still insisted on fulfilling the "contract" from another world, trying to drag all the living beings of the world down with it in its sorrow.

Is it deep affection, or utter selfishness?

"No, it's probably just that she doesn't care about anything other than Emilia."

Ye Xuan sighed inwardly and shook his head gently.

ended.

He slightly raised his right hand, and a long sword silently hovered in his palm.

The sword is about three feet and six inches long, and its entire body is an extremely pure and vibrant emerald green, as if it were carved from a single piece of flawless jade, or as if the shape of a deep pool of autumn water had been condensed into a sword.

On the blade, a lifelike dragon-shaped pattern spirals upwards from the guard. The blade is as thin as a cicada's wing, yet it radiates a sharp, cold light capable of slicing through everything, its clear light shimmering like the rippling waves of autumn water.

At this moment, "Dragon Slayer" was emitting a dazzling blue light, illuminating the dark world shrouded in Parker's chill into a clear and serene blue!
A sacred, majestic, and auspicious aura, capable of warding off evil, rose from the sword.
"Buzz!"

A clear, melodious, and resonant dragon's roar, piercing the heavens and earth, emanated from the sword!

At the same time, in Ye Xuan's system interface, which was visible only to himself, a blessing that had been dormant for a long time, or rather, had never been used, was emitting an unprecedentedly intense light.

The Sword Saint's Blessing is shining!

Coincidentally, among the items Ye Xuan fished for, the one of the highest value to him was the [Child of the World] rank originating from the world of "Re:Zero" and "Reinhard".

Although he did not obtain Reinhard's sword "Dragon Sword", he did possess "Dragon Slayer".

In the "Re:Zero" timeline, after Emilia died at the hands of the Archbishop of Sloth of the "Witch Cult," it was Reinhard who ultimately intervened to stop and "kill" Puck.

At this moment, on this grassland in the real world, history seems to have entered another form of closed loop.

Ye Xuan, possessing the status of "Child of the World" and the "Blessing of the Sword Saint," wielding the "Dragon Slayer," became the most suitable and only one to kill "Pak."

The light of the Dragon Slayer Sword grew even brighter. The emerald green sword light was not dazzling, but it carried an irresistible power, sweeping towards Parker like a tidal wave.

The chilling aura of the End that surrounded Parker, capable of freezing everything, melted and dissipated rapidly in the face of this pure sword light, like ice and snow encountering the blazing sun!
"So that's how it is. You are the 'hero' of this world?"

Parker felt the overwhelming, unstoppable power that seemed to repel him from the entire world, and a look of understanding flashed in his huge golden vertical pupils.

Although its body trembled violently from instinctive fear, it itself felt no fear whatsoever, only a kind of almost liberated calm.

"Another 'Sword Saint'."

It gazed at the sweeping emerald tide and let out a very soft sigh.

However, it had long been prepared for its death.

Since it wanted to destroy the world, it was only natural that it would be killed by the world's guardians, by its "heroes".

It has no right to resent, nor any reason to resent.

"I cannot live in a world without Leah."

This is the sole purpose of its existence. At that very moment, Ye Xuan slowly raised the Dragon-Slaying Sword, which was radiating endless azure light.

cut!
When the sword light, as green as a clear spring in the heavens yet as dazzling as the sun in the sky, fell, time and space seemed to be frozen in that instant by absolute power.

The sword light was not a raging torrent, but rather a condensed, thin thread that stretched across the heavens and earth, precisely grazing Parker's massive body.

The instant the extremely condensed emerald green sword thread touched Parker's body, a silent "dissolution" began.

The body that constitutes Parker's existence is like snow meeting a red-hot iron; from the point of contact, it quietly disintegrates and collapses in a calm and irreversible way.

Parker's massive, chilling body transformed into countless crystalline, icy-blue particles of light, starting from where the sword wound had passed. These particles broke free from the constraints of the original body and silently floated upwards, dissipating.

In its golden pupils, the last reflections were of the boundless emerald light and the constantly scattering particles of light itself. There was no pain, no anger, only a deep, finally-ending peace.

Without uttering a sound, it simply gazed silently, letting its existence be erased by that gentle yet all-encompassing light.

In the blink of an eye, the colossal beast of the end, which had stood there exuding a terrifying chill, had vanished.

All that remained was an incredibly pure expanse of air, as if it had been thoroughly cleansed, and countless icy blue specks of light that were still slowly drifting in the air and gradually fading away, like a brief and sorrowful snow of light that vanished in the afterglow of the emerald sword light.

The clear light of the Dragon-Slaying Sword gradually faded, and the suffocating oppressive feeling in the world also dissipated.

However, just as the emerald light completely dissipated, the Dragon Slayer Sword hanging in Ye Xuan's hand suddenly emitted an extremely clear and melodious sword cry!

"Zheng!"

The sword's cry carried a joyful feeling, as if "a spirit bird long confined in a cage has finally been able to soar through the heavens." On the sword's blade, the emerald light began to flow lively once more, radiating a visible, exuberant emotion.

This is not an illusion.

Divine weapons possess spirits, and the Dragon Slayer Sword itself is of high quality, being one of the Nine Heavenly Divine Weapons in the world of Jade Dynasty.

That sword strike might have been a casual move for Ye Xuan, but for the Dragon Slayer Sword, it was like a long-awaited rain after a drought!
There is nothing we can do about this.

Ye Xuan's swordsmanship had already reached an extremely high level.

Leaving aside all his blessings, such as the "Blessing of the Sword Saint" which are specifically designed for the sword, he also comprehended the "King's Sword Intent" on his own when he first obtained the "Royal Power and Hegemony" template.

Subsequently, with the help of the Emperor Armor's [Heavenly Perspective], his understanding of swordsmanship continued to improve. In addition, with the "Rat Talisman," he could easily materialize sword masters from all the worlds into reality and spar with them.

With so much accumulated experience, his swordsmanship had long transcended the realm of "skill" and approached the "Tao."

The sword was his forte and his most powerful weapon.

But it is precisely because he is so strong.

He is so powerful that it is difficult to find an opponent in the entire world who requires him to take things seriously and use his full strength.

Therefore, he hasn't used the Dragon Slayer Sword, the Rainbow Sword, or the Flowing Blade Sword for a long time.

In the past, when his strength was just beginning, he would use the Dragon Slayer Sword to spar with sword masters who manifested the Rat Talisman; but as his strength increased and he reached the "sixth rank" or even higher, his combat became independent of his reliance on weapons.

Moreover, the quality of the Dragon Slayer Sword itself has indeed become somewhat outdated in the battles between the sixth-level beings.

Whether he uses it or not will not affect his strength in the slightest.

Therefore, the Dragon Slayer Sword was taken out less and less often, and could only be quietly placed in the villa, waiting for the day it would be used.

Today, Ye Xuan not only took it out, but also, under the protection of the Sword Saint, unleashed such a perfect sword strike that perfectly matched the true meaning of the sword!
For the long-dormant Dragon Slayer Sword Spirit, this was an indescribable source of immense happiness and satisfaction!
How could it not be overjoyed? How could it not be thrilled?
Ye Xuan sensed the pure joy emanating from the sword. He stretched out his finger and gently stroked the still humming blade, which shimmered with a cheerful emerald light, and said:

"Once I catch the right materials in the future, I will reforge the sword for you."

Upon hearing this, the clear and melodious sword cry of the Dragon Slayer Sword suddenly rose higher, becoming even more crisp and melodious, conveying an emotion of great anticipation and jubilation.
It even circled Ye Xuan lightly once before obediently hovering beside him, its blade affectionately brushing against his sleeve.

A helpless smile flashed across Ye Xuan's eyes.

Although the Dragon Slayer Sword is a divine weapon from the Nine Heavens, and was already a top-tier magic weapon in its original world, it is limited by the rules of heaven and earth and the upper limit of materials in the world of Zhuxian, so its foundation itself is of no use to him now.

It wasn't that Ye Xuan was unwilling to improve it, but rather that there weren't suitable materials available at the moment.

The progress of spiritual energy revival in the real world has not yet reached the point where it can nurture materials with a strength higher than that of the "Dragon Slayer Sword" itself.

Therefore, we can only place our hopes on the system.
