Dimensional Invasion: I Can Fish for All Heavens

Chapter 114 Armor Hero World, Fire and Light Stone
Hangzhou, on the shore of West Lake.

As dusk deepened, the sunset painted half the sky red, reflecting on the shimmering lake surface like a flowing painting. A gentle breeze blew, the willows swayed lightly, and the air was filled with a faint mist and the fragrance of grass and trees.

However, unlike the bustling crowds of the past, the West Lake is now less noisy; the arrival of the spiritual energy tide has increased the number of mutated creatures, and although the Tian Shu Bureaus in various places have strengthened their defenses, the number of tourists has visibly decreased.

Even so, the lakeside remained lively.

Ye Xuan walked slowly along the lakeside, his hands in his pockets, his gaze calmly sweeping across the lake.

Despite having already acquired three top-tier treasures from the heavens at home, the feeling of being drawn by fate still lingered, as if something else was waiting for him.

The echoes of the strong fortune have not yet faded.

This is also why he chooses to go out.

Ye Xuan strolled along the lakeside and unknowingly arrived in front of a tourist souvenir shop.

The shop is small, with a sign that reads "West Lake Specialty Products" hanging at the entrance, but the display window is filled with nothing more than handicrafts that can be found everywhere in scenic spots across the country: keychains printed with scenery, low-quality silk scarves, and mass-produced ceramic cups; as well as beautifully packaged but of unknown quality Longjing tea, silk and lotus root powder.

However, an old woman's stall not far away had more local flavor.

Freshly picked lotus pods were laid out in a bamboo basket. The verdant pods were still damp with moisture and had a faint, sweet fragrance. Several tourists were selecting them, and an old woman skillfully peeled open the lotus pods with her rough fingers, revealing the lotus seeds inside.

There are many stalls selling lotus seeds like this around West Lake, but it's rare to find such fresh ones at this time of year.

Ye Xuan's gaze, however, bypassed all of that and landed directly on a corner of the store.

There stood a lone red stone, which at first glance looked no different from a pebble. Its surface was smooth and its color was dark red, as if it had been washed by lake water for millions of years. It had nothing special about it, except that it was much larger than an ordinary pebble.

However, in Ye Xuan's eyes, the stone emitted a soft, flame-like red glow, pulsating slightly as if it were alive, completely out of place with the surrounding objects.

He went into the shop and pointed to the stone:

"how much is this?"

The boss, who was looking down at his phone, glanced up when he heard this, his expression somewhat strange.
"That rock?"

"It's just a stone with a slightly unusual color? Are you sure you want it?"

He walked over, picked up the stone, and asked Ye Xuan for confirmation.

"determine."

Ye Xuan nodded, his gaze never leaving the stone.

Seeing his resolute attitude, the boss shrugged.

"Two hundred dollars."

Seeing Ye Xuan's brows furrow slightly, he added:
"Don't think it's expensive. It's normal for stones with such unique colors to be a bit pricey."

"And it might even be a treasure from the heavens."

"It's just that I'm not destined to have it, so I can't awaken it."

Ye Xuan didn't reply, but simply took out his phone, transferred two hundred yuan, and left with the stone in his arms.

The boss shook his head slightly as he watched Ye Xuan's departing figure.

"Treasures from all the heavens are not so easy to obtain."

"Young people these days believe everything, do they really think they're so special?"

Although Ye Xuan had already left, he could still hear the shopkeeper muttering softly, but he ignored it and simply gripped the stone in his hand tightly. He could feel the flame-like halo spreading along his fingertips, as if responding to his touch.

He even knew what the stone was at this moment, but he never expected that at this point in time, an item of this level would have already invaded reality.

In the world of Armor Hero, one of the Light and Shadow Stones is the Fire Light and Shadow Stone.

Although the visual impact of the Light and Shadow Armor in Armor Hero, including the Emperor Armor, is not particularly significant, each set of Light and Shadow Armor possesses unlimited potential according to the established design.

Given their level, they should absolutely not have appeared at this time.

Is it because the Light and Shadow Armor values ​​the armor master more? If the armor master is weak, then even if the armor has a high ceiling, it will be of no use?
However, without the bloodline of the Five Elements, even with the Light and Shadow Stone, it seems impossible to summon the armor.

Ye Xuan was thinking about it and decided to give it a try when he got back.

If all else fails, you could try transforming into the Emperor Armor using the Rat Talisman and then communicating with the Fire Light and Shadow Stone.

Meanwhile, deep within West Lake.

Two tall, massive figures moved slowly in the darkness, their bodies intertwined and interwoven. With each movement, they stirred up the undercurrents, churning up the mud and sand at the bottom of the lake. In the murky water, wisps of spiritual energy could be vaguely seen being greedily devoured by them.

Their breathing grew heavier and heavier, and with each breath, the temperature of the lake water plummeted.

suddenly--

One of the figures trembled violently, the patterns on its scales suddenly lit up, and surging spiritual energy began to converge on its body. Its body began to swell, and its bones made a teeth-grinding "crackling" sound, as if some ancient shackles were breaking.

"boom!!!"

An invisible shock burst forth from the bottom of the lake, causing ripples and even trembling the shore. The next moment, the figure suddenly accelerated, its slender body shooting straight towards the surface of the water like an arrow!
“Crash——!!!”

The lake surface exploded, and water sprayed everywhere like a torrential downpour.

A giant, snow-white python burst out of the water. Its body was tens of meters long, and its scales were as clear as ice crystals, yet shimmered with a metallic luster.

Its snake-like eyes were scarlet, and as its vertical pupils contracted, the surrounding water vapor gathered wildly, condensing into a swirling vortex around its body.

"Roar--!!!"

A deafening roar echoed across the sky, the sound waves spreading like a tangible force, shaking the willow trees on the bank and sending leaves flying.

The crowds on the shore and even on the bridge instantly erupted in chaos.

"Mutant creature! It's a mutated creature!"

A young man wearing glasses turned pale, grabbed his girlfriend, and ran toward the edge without saying a word.

The people around them did the same; the moment they saw the mutated white python, they fled without hesitation to the nearest building.

They weren't sure if the buildings could withstand the attacks of the mutated white python, but having something to block it was better than using their own bodies to do so.

Fear spread like a plague.

The crowd began to push and scream. Some people fell and were trampled by those behind them. Vendors' stalls were overturned, and lotus seeds rolled all over the ground and were crushed by the hurried footsteps.

Several quick-thinking individuals beckoned the people around them into the shop, and once the quantity inside couldn't be contained, they slammed the door shut, pulled down the shutter, and did so without the slightest hesitation.

"Evacuate immediately! Repeat, evacuate immediately!"

The security personnel stationed at West Lake by the Tian Shu Bureau quickly assembled. Their black uniforms stood out in the crowd. The captain raised his hand and waved, and more than a dozen gun barrels were pointed at the giant shadow in the center of the lake.
