At this moment, shatter the dimensional barrier

"There are still so many Beasts, what are we going to do?! What are we going to do?! Waaaaah, Mashu!" Fujimaru Ritsuka hugged Mashu tightly, burying her face in Mashu's chest and wailing, "I'm just a normal person! Can't you find someone else to mess with?!"

“Senior…” Mashu looked at the wailing Fujimaru Ritsuka and didn’t know what to say: “Actually, thinking about it, doesn’t God’s high regard for you prove that you are not ordinary at all?”

“Uh…” Fujimaru Ritsuka immediately stopped wailing, raised her head, and her face turned proud. She crossed her arms and said, “That makes a lot of sense. I’m not ordinary at all. If I were an ordinary person, I wouldn’t be able to defeat Goetia.”

"Yes, senior, you're amazing. Just when I felt it was going to end, you always managed to find a way out," Mashu said admiringly.

"Haha, I'm not that amazing..." Fujimaru Ritsuka scratched her head. Actually, she was just running around to live a little longer. After all, why would she stay and wait to die? She wasn't that stupid.

Starry Sea

This is a fantastical land beneath the surface of a planet constructed by human reason, a place where different dimensions, beyond human comprehension, overlapped before the Age of Gods. All the 'demon realms' of various mythologies fell here after the Age of Gods ended.

The Celtic 'Land of Shadows', the British 'Land of Fairies' and 'Fairy Lake', the Greek underworld, Tartarus, Mount Olympus, the Japanese 'Takamagahara', and so on—all these non-human 'reality' are located here. However, these 'magical realms' are not interconnected, like multiple overlapping spaces that do not interfere with each other.

In the heart of the pink flower sea of ​​the fairy kingdom of Avalon stands a tall tower. The fairies all know that it is the abode of King Arthur's teacher, a place that both humans and fairies despise, and few fairies are willing to approach.

"BeastI's spirit origin has disappeared, and the influence of Pan-Human History has also disappeared. It seems that Fujimaru Ritsuka did a great job." Merlin sat in the attic of the tower, where there were all kinds of modern game discs and live streaming equipment. That's right, Merlin was also a streamer in Pan-Human History, a faceless streamer in the two-dimensional world called 'Merry,' who dressed up as a woman for fun.

"It's a pity I didn't dare to watch. That final battle must have been incredibly exciting." Merlin lamented, as a candidate for Grand Magician, he could sense countless Heroic Spirits descending to help him according to their will.

Coming from different eras and being enemies with each other, they joined forces to fight back-to-back at that moment, and just thinking about it excited him.

Of course, his excitement wasn't due to emotions. As a dream demon, he lacked human feelings. Having experienced that battle, the memories of Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu would surely replay in his beautiful dream.

As a dream demon that feeds on dreams, this held a fatal attraction for him.

But... no, the 'All-Knowing and All-Powerful Lord' has descended. Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mash both have His favor. If he rashly tries to peek, he might be burned by His 'favor,' since the blessings He bestows have absolute purifying power, making them the nemesis of dream demons like him.

"Sigh... In modern terms, it's like having a mountain of gold right in front of you but being unable to get close. It's so frustrating." Merlin sighed again. He didn't even dare to look at it now, afraid of accidentally seeing something he shouldn't.

"What shouldn't you see? What shouldn't you see?" A cold voice rang out beside Merlin.

Merlin blurted out instinctively, "Of course it's because I can't have the dream of eating Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu that I'm upset about, otherwise what else could it be... um..."

Merlin realized something was wrong before he could finish speaking. He froze, turning his head as if it were a machine. Cold sweat instantly poured down his forehead, soaking him completely, like a waterfall of sweat...

The first thing that catches the eye is a pair of absolutely divine golden eyes.

"Merlin pays homage to the great and supreme 'All-Knowing and All-Powerful Lord'." Merlin knelt smoothly on the ground, prostrating himself with his head bowed. He was terrified. A god! How could a god have come! I am just a lowly succubus. Although I am a candidate for the Grand Rank, am I not just a speck of dust to you?

Could it be because he glanced at Shen Zhenyan not long ago?

Time in the 'Sea Within the Stars' is different from time on the surface. It connects all timelines. Although his 'clairvoyance' can only see the 'present,' in the 'Sea Within the Stars,' all timelines on the surface are the present.

Although a long time has passed since the Sixth Singularity, it feels like only half an hour ago to Merlin here.

"Nightmare, you've seen something you shouldn't have." Luo Sheng said coldly to Merlin, who was crawling on the ground trembling, but he had already begun to plan how to torment this wretched Nightmare.

"This, this... Please forgive my sins, great Lord." Merlin was completely dumbfounded. Was this going to kill him? No way... I haven't lived enough yet, there are so many interesting things in the human world waiting for me to discover.

"Oh? What reason do you have for me to forgive you?" Luo Sheng's lips curled into a slight smile.

“Great Lord, it was truly not my intention to offend you. I was entrusted by the Counter Force to observe the anomalies in human history and assist the ‘savior’ who can reverse the crisis.” Merlin decisively shifted all the blame to the Counter Force.

Moreover, he wasn't lying; it truly was a request from the Counter Force. His initial instruction of Artoria was also a request from the Counter Force. Although he did a lot of fun things along the way, ultimately, if the Counter Force didn't give him the opportunity, he wouldn't have had the chance to do anything interesting.

Therefore, it's all the fault of the inhibitory force.

"Oh~ Is that so? Alaya, did you send Merlin to offend me?" Los Saint looked at the little light figure on his shoulder and his eyes gradually narrowed, turning into squinty eyes.

[...] The will of Alaya spread out, expressing incomprehension; He was completely indifferent to matters of non-human continuation.

"?" Merlin's expression froze as he sensed the fluctuation of the restraining force. No way... Calling out the human restraining force Alaya to check the accounts, is something a god could do?

"Merlin, Merlin, it seems I must make you disappear from the world." Los Saint shook his head regretfully, stretched out his hand, and Merlin was terrified. He wanted to beg for mercy but found that he couldn't move at all, let alone speak.

Under Merlin's despairing gaze, a colorful hole appeared in front of him.

"Get out of here!" Los Saint kicked Merlin, sending Merlin hurtling into the dimensional portal like a cannonball.

The next moment, Alaya's will fluctuated violently, and she angrily questioned him why he did this, since Merlin was one of her protectors.

"Hey~ This is the 'Starry Sea,' not Pan-Human History, why are you shouting so loudly?" Luo Sheng crossed his arms and pretended to be puzzled.

【！】Alaya was stuck for a moment.

“I haven’t interfered with Pan-Human History. I haven’t even appeared in Pan-Human History, and my power hasn’t extended there. Don’t make false accusations.” Luo Sheng said righteously, “Otherwise, I’ll sue you for defamation.”

【！！！】Alaya was even more furious, but couldn't find any reason to say anything. Los Santos had indeed not interfered with the history of humankind, and the 'Sea Within the Star' was within the range of Gaia's restraining force.

Gaia's Counterforce: 'Merlin isn't my guardian, he has nothing to do with me, and I don't have a guardian. My guardian is UO, but due to Alaya, I can't give birth to UO.'

The two restraining forces, Alaya and Gaia, are mostly in a state of non-interference with each other, occasionally in a state of opposition, and very rarely in a state of unity.

The most recent alliance was when this god from another world descended upon us. He came from outside the world and possessed the power to threaten humanity and the planet, so the two restraining forces united.

Now that it has been confirmed that he will not destroy humanity and the planet, the two restraining forces have returned to their normal state of non-interference.

Luo Sheng ignored the chattering Alaya and stroked his chin with his fingers.

"Merlin would explode if he saw Artoria, and the Knights of the Round Table would give Merlin an iron fist when they meet again."

Most of the Knights of the Round Table believed that Merlin's inaction was the cause of everything; he knew what was going to happen but did nothing.

…………

On the other side of the dimensional portal, the world of Los Santos continues its stable development as always.

However, one after another, blue meteors appeared out of nowhere, tearing through the Earth's atmosphere and falling towards the ground. As the number of meteors increased, a small meteor shower was formed.

This scene amazed the people on the space voyage, but they weren't shocked. After all, they had seen many miracles. If they wanted a meteor shower, they could easily create one artificially. For example, they could drop high-density elemental crystals towards Earth from a space service station. The elemental crystals would burn in the atmosphere and form dazzling meteors.

However, this behavior violates space navigation laws and will result in being arrested and imprisoned by space police.

"Such a high-energy reaction, and it appeared out of thin air. Could it be that someone is throwing elemental crystals?"

"That's terrible. Although the elemental crystals will be completely broken down in the atmosphere, there is still a chance that they will affect the transport planes on the planet."

"Yes, if we're unlucky and the transport plane crashes into a city, and that city happens to not have any fourth-tier superhumans, wouldn't that cause casualties?"

"Tsk tsk, if something like this happens, even if the culprit is a fourth-level superhuman, he will drop in rank on the spot, and might even become an ordinary person."

At this moment, one or more meteors streak across the world, while some meteors break through spatial barriers and fall into parallel worlds.

The top floor of the Xia Kingdom National Library also houses a national-level atmospheric observation station, specifically for observing energy responses around the city.

Two shooting stars are hurtling toward the city, getting closer and closer.

"Such a high energy reaction! Good heavens, only energy crystals of at least the fourth rank or higher can produce this. Which bastard threw energy blocks into space!" A middle-aged man in his fifties had veins bulging on his forehead. He was a fourth-rank superhuman in this city and also a historian.

"Huh...that's not a shooting star, it's something like me." A woman's voice said in disbelief.

"Huh?" The middle-aged man stared in disbelief and quickly looked at the female monk who was drinking lemon water: "Master Sanzang, do you mean that guys like you are fifth-tier heroes or sixth-tier legends from other parallel worlds?"

The young girl dressed in somewhat indecent monk's robes is none other than the Tang Dynasty monk Xuanzang, the legendary reincarnation of Jin Chanzi.

At first, these historians did not believe it, but the Tripitaka Master read out one Buddhist scripture after another, and these scriptures were indeed effective for practice, a miraculous method of Buddhist and Taoist practice.

Furthermore, in Taiwan, he summoned 'Shakyamuni Buddha' and slapped two fourth-order fallen beings to death. The Buddha's light and the phantom of Shakyamuni Buddha are the best evidence of this.

Then historians, theologians, folklorists, and others focused on understanding what happened back then by studying the teachings of the Tripitaka Master.

It completely overturned all their understanding, and it was not exactly the same as the historical myths they knew, but it was also completely unrelated.

They wouldn't consider these just stories from parallel worlds, since those who reach the fifth level of transcendence can enter parallel worlds through special zones at the North and South Poles.

The Buddha spoke of three thousand worlds, which must have referred to three thousand parallel worlds. Moreover, Xuanzang's journey to the West was certainly not as simple as traveling from Chang'an to India; it was most likely that each parallel world was considered one of his trials.

The so-called eighty-one tribulations were mostly due to the fact that the monk Xuanzang was too beautiful, and the monsters all wanted to kidnap her and marry her.

Only a very small number of demons want to eat her flesh to achieve immortality, and this is a rumor spread by Guanyin Bodhisattva. It is because they are jealous that she is more beautiful than Guanyin Bodhisattva and deliberately create trouble for her.

"Uh..." This caused a huge uproar in the entire historical and theological communities. Good heavens, really good heavens, is this the truth? The truth is just that simple, there is no conspiracy theory or complicated reasons.

The incident caused a huge uproar among historians and theologians in the Xia Kingdom. The Pope of the Vatican even made a special online video appearance, featuring Gabriel, one of the four archangels.

"Don't make such a fuss about it, Xia Kingdom. History and theology are like a little girl who can be dressed up however you like; what we see are just scribbles by our predecessors."

'Most of the stories in our church's Bible are fictional tales created by our predecessors, a fact that our Archangel Gabriel can attest to.'

Since then, people all over the world have approached their own ancient history and mythology with a degree of scrutiny, unsure which stories are fictional, which are fan fiction, and which are true.

"Wow, that's really impressive. So many heroes have descended. What happened?" Master Xuanzang asked curiously, biting his thumb as he watched the shooting star streak across the sky.

Judging from the appearance, more than a hundred heroic spirits have descended.

This world is special. Most heroic spirits who come to this world, as long as they are not evil, can at least reach the fifth rank. If they have saved a country, they can even reach the peak of the fifth rank. If they have saved a civilization, they can directly advance to the sixth rank.

If it's a demigod hero, they can even directly reach the seventh rank.

"Do you know which heroes and legends the monk Xuanzang fell into the Xia Kingdom?" the middle-aged man asked excitedly.

If it comes from ancient times and is more than 500 years old, then it must be tier 6! Which country would think that its civilization has too many tier 5 heroes and tier 6 legends?

"Hmm... most of them are hard to tell, but the one that fell into our city has a similar temperament and bloodline to Master Li from the Martial Arts Association." Xuanzang pointed to the meteor that was gradually falling into the sky above the city. The meteor's speed was decreasing rapidly, and it would have no destructive power by the time it hit the ground.

"Master Li? Bloodline and temperament..." The middle-aged man wondered, "Master Li Shuying, the authentic Bajiquan master? Could it be that Master Li's ancestor was a hero of the fifth rank or above?"

Chapter 235: Ishtar, Gilgamesh, I just wanted to see that expression on your face.

"Hmm, more or less." The Tripitaka Master nodded thoughtfully: "However, there are still some differences. That one should not be directly related to Master Li by blood. They are more like two flowers that are the same but independent."

"So, that hero who is related to Master Li by blood is considered an ancestor of a parallel world?" The middle-aged man's eyes were full of curiosity.

His research focuses on topics such as 'the connections between parallel worlds and the differences in their histories,' which is also currently one of the most sought-after topics among Earth scholars.

Unfortunately, few scholars have yet advanced to the fifth rank, and there is no passage between parallel worlds. Therefore, scholars all over the world are particularly obsessed with advancing to the fifth rank, because only by advancing to the fifth rank can they carry out research on parallel worlds.

The current research data on 'parallel worlds' comes entirely from fifth-order transcendents who came from parallel worlds. In particular, the number of fifth-order transcendents coming from parallel worlds has increased recently, and we even received a fifth-order transcendent from the parallel world 'Great Xia'.

The countries in parallel worlds are very different from them, lagging behind the main Earth in culture, technology, or even extraordinary development.

Of course, besides the fact that fifth-order transcendents can freely travel between parallel worlds, when a parallel world develops to the point where there is a barrier between Earth and the Moon, there will be a few days each year when a node channel appears, at which time one can also travel to the main Earth by 'spaceship'.

However, those who can leave the parallel world must be at least at the third level. If they try to force their way through, they will be rejected by the spatial nodes, and where they end up will depend on luck.

A parallel world is a plane that can contain a single planet, and its size is roughly the same as the Earth-Moon system.

Scholars do not yet know how many such parallel worlds there are, but based on current estimates, the number is no less than three thousand.

"Ancestors from parallel worlds, well, they should count, since we share the same bloodline." The monk blinked and nodded.

"Then the authentic Bajiquan truly lives up to its name," the middle-aged man remarked.
