Dimensional Invasion: I Can Fish for All Heavens

Chapter 142 What was broken was merely the barrier between worlds; only power will not deceive itself.

"Let's go."

The members of the Tian Shu Bureau seemed unable to stand it any longer and spoke to the survivors around them.

"Um……"

The survivors responded groggily and then turned and left.

Behind them, the wailing of the mutated giant ape and the trio's ecstatic laughter, like demon kings, mingled together, creating a classic scene.

Three heroes fighting a monkey? ×; The monkey is being beaten? √
It's unclear how much time has passed. Perhaps their spiritual energy was almost depleted, or perhaps they didn't have much spiritual energy potion left, or perhaps the three of them had had enough fun.

Finally, Gu Che, Lin Ruoxi, and Shen Mo prepared to end the battle.

The spiked club in Gu Che's hand surged with spiritual power, with lightning, gale and flames swirling around it, ready to be unleashed; behind Shen Mo, the phantom of an ice dragon coiled up, its dragon eyes locking onto the giant ape, and endless chill instantly enveloped the battlefield; Lin Ruoxi's longsword blazed with lightning, and spiritual power poured out like a torrent!

"Boom——!"

The three attacks simultaneously slammed into the mutated giant ape!
The mutated giant ape closed its eyes in despair, awaiting death, but at that very moment, a figure appeared silently before it.

"Boom!"

Ye Xuan raised his hand and effortlessly blocked all three attacks. The residual spiritual energy was annihilated in his palm, without even causing a ripple.

"That's it."

"It would be a shame to destroy the corpse of a Rumble-Rumble Fruit user so easily."

He spoke calmly.

Before the mutated giant ape could even process the possibility of its survival, a sudden chill ran through its chest.

"Pfft!"

Ye Xuan's arm had already pierced through its chest, his slender fingers precisely gripping the still-beating heart, and he yanked it open!
"Gudong..."

The scarlet heart was enveloped in spiritual energy and floated in Ye Xuan's palm, with tiny blue electric sparks swirling around its surface.

The mutated giant ape opened its mouth as if to say something, but having lost its heart, it couldn't even let out a final howl. It could only stare with its scarlet eyes wide open and fall heavily to the ground.

No one pitied them.

Ye Xuan casually put the heart into his spatial ring, then turned to Gu Che and the other two and said:
"I'll take the heart back with me. If we can successfully extract the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, I'll give it to Su Mengyao."

After all, the three of them had killed the mutated giant ape together, so Ye Xuan naturally wouldn't covet the fruit.

It was just a clap of thunder; it wouldn't make him do something like that.

What he really cared about was whether the appearance of the Mammoth Fruit during Xiao Yan's alchemy process was accidental or inevitable; and whether the alchemy techniques in the Dou Qi world could truly transform the heart of a Devil Fruit user into a corresponding Devil Fruit.

If this time it also succeeds
He should have no shortage of Devil Fruits in the future.

Although the explosion might not seem very useful to him, and he had no intention of eating a Devil Fruit, it was still a good option whether for trading, building up power, or training subordinates.

However, the former depends on whether the Celestial Pivot Bureau can acquire valuable treasures from the heavens that can arouse his interest; as for the latter, he has no interest in establishing power, at least not at present.

The purpose of establishing a power must be that the power itself can help him, but with his current strength and importance in the Great Xia, what is there that requires establishing a power to achieve?
Power will naturally appear in your hands when your fist is strong enough.

Gu Che, Lin Ruoxi, and Shen Mo naturally had no objections. In fact, if Ye Xuan hadn't intervened, the mutated giant ape would have been completely obliterated by their combined full-force attack.

Let alone a complete heart, having even a few whole pieces of limb remains would be considered good.

If anyone from the research institute finds out, they'll definitely give them a good scolding.

Besides, if they don't believe others, how could Ye Xuan and the others not believe them?
The Rumble-Rumble Fruit is indeed very precious to others, but for Ye Xuan? The Flame Dragon Armor and the Zanpakuto Ryujin Jakka, aren't they more precious than the Rumble-Rumble Fruit?
Besides, there's still such a large corpse here.

If the researchers at the research institute can develop the Rumble-Rumble Fruit from the corpse, then it doesn't matter if the heart is missing; conversely, if they can't develop anything from the corpse, then even if it has a heart, it's useless.

The Tian Shu Bureau does have whole Devil Fruits, although they are all Zoan-type, and even those are trash that no one in the Zoan type would want to eat, but they are enough for research.

They haven't figured anything out yet, have they?

The world of anime is not so easy to study. What has been broken is only the barrier between worlds, not the rules of the world.

However, for some reason, although rationally they felt that even Ye Xuan couldn't possibly get the Rumble-Rumble Fruit out of the mutated giant ape's heart, emotionally they felt that Ye Xuan might actually be able to do it.

Perhaps it was because Ye Xuan had given them such a great shock before.

After returning, they must ensure that their respective factions keep a close eye on Su Mengyao; if Ye Xuan really manages to produce the Thunder Fruit, they must do everything in their power to win her over.

This is a top-tier fruit that is in no way inferior to the Azure Dragon Fruit. Its user can easily reach the fourth rank in the future; even the fifth rank is not impossible.

Lin Ruoxi was definitely planning to eat it herself, and Shen Mo had the same idea. However, he also knew that he could not compete with Lin Ruoxi, since their attributes were different.

If it were the Ice-Ice Fruit, he would have an advantage.

Gu Che's words were simply to have the forces behind him try to win them over. Even if they succeeded, he wouldn't take it all for himself. Instead, he would see if there were any talented individuals he could train.

With so many people in the Great Xia Dynasty, it would be unreasonable to say that it was just a few of them.

He wasn't worried about having too many competitors. In fact, there would definitely be no shortage of holders of the myriad treasures and powerful superhumans in the future of the Great Xia Dynasty.

The strong rise and the weak fall; this is an inevitable rule for the future.

Everything else can be fake, except power.

If he is afraid of even the slightest competition, then he is not qualified to sit in his current "position".

Deep in the Qingfeng Mountains, Ye Xuan and his group stood in the center of a wide valley.

This place is unsurprisingly the habitat of the mutated ape tribe.

Shen Mo wasn't the only one who noticed the odd proportions of the third-tier mutated apes; Gu Che and Lin Ruoxi also noticed it. Ye Xuan, however, didn't even need to notice; once his senses covered Qingfeng Mountain, he discovered the peculiarity of this location.

There are at least four third-tier mutated apes, one of which is even a user of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit. This cannot be explained by mere talent.

And now, the answer is right before our eyes.

Their gaze fell upon a towering tree standing before them.

The trunk is as thick as a mountain, and the crown reaches straight into the sky, with a height of at least 100 meters. Pink flowers bloom among the lush branches and leaves, like clouds and mist, trembling in the wind and scattering specks of fluorescent light.
