Dimensional Invasion: I Can Fish for All Heavens

Chapter 208 Tang San, we admire you; it's just a little hardship.
As the finger continued to slide down, the content of the rankings on the screen suddenly changed. Starting from the third place, the rankings no longer had an overwhelming gap like the top two, but instead presented a chaotic battle with many contenders.

Even though the strength of the later powerhouses is still somewhat different from that of Shen Xuan, who is ranked third, the gap is not as large as it used to be, and it is completely different from the previous list of extraordinary individuals.

【TOP 4: Lu Jing】

[Strength Level: Tier 3 (Overall combat strength reaches Tier 4 standard, but spiritual power is insufficient)]

[Abilities: Logia-type - Flame-Flame Fruit, Different Flame - Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame]

[Comment: The elementalized body is immune to conventional physical attacks and can freely create and manipulate flames; with the blessing of the Azure Lotus Core Flame, its flame temperature has exceeded conventional limits, capable of producing heat comparable to magma.]

【TOP 5: Lin Ruoxi】

[Strength Level: Tier 3 (Overall combat strength reaches Tier 4 standard, but spiritual power is insufficient)]

[Abilities: User of the Eye of God (Lightning type), user of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit]

[Comment: A Primal God who walks the long staircase to godhood, wielding both the lightning elemental power of Teyvat and the thunderous authority of nature; capable of transforming into lightning for super-fast movement, and able to summon massive thunderbolts for wide-area bombardment.]

【TOP 6: Gu Che】

[Strength Level: Tier 3 (Overall combat strength reaches Tier 4 standard, spiritual energy reserves have reached the critical point)]

[Ability: Devil Fruit - Mythical Zoan - Azure Dragon Form]

[Comment: Having been bathed in the blood of a mutated dragon, it underwent a transformation in dire circumstances, developing its abilities to a whole new level; in its dragon form, it can control wind, clouds, thunder, and lightning, and its dragon might has absolute suppressive power over low-level mutated beasts.]

【TOP 7: Shen Mo】

[Strength Level: Tier 3]

[Ability: Wielder of Zanpakuto Hyōrinmaru]

[Comment: Wielding the strongest ice-type Zanpakuto, its spiritual power can cause local climate changes. In its Shikai state, it can instantly freeze water vapor within a radius of one kilometer, forming an absolute zero field; wherever the slash passes, even the air will be condensed into ice crystal dragon skeletons.]

When fully unleashed, it can even briefly alter the battlefield's weather patterns, creating a persistent blizzard environment.

From fourth to seventh place, they are all familiar faces, but this time their rankings are completely different from the last time.

Gu Che, who should have been ranked below Shen Xuan, actually made it to the top 6 this time. Not only Lu Jing, but even Lin Ruoxi was ranked above him.

The only one who hasn't changed is Shen Mo, who is still at the bottom of their class.

To be precise, there is also Jiang Qingyao, but she is the holder of the Eight Extraordinary Skills - Dual-Handed Technique, which is a support role, so it's normal for her combat power to be lower.

"The Flame-Flame Fruit combined with the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame—which genius told him to do that? He wants to replicate the Flame Emperor's path in reality, right?"

"You know what, you really don't know, there's a reason behind it."

"Xiao Yan used the Burning Flame Technique to absorb the strange fire, and he couldn't do without the necessary pills. Lu Jing absorbed it directly, so how could there be no explanation? If it weren't for the Steel Dou being able to accelerate, I would doubt that he could withstand the power of the Green Lotus Earth Core Flame. TOP 4 is well-deserved."

"Wasn't the Rumble-Rumble Fruit eaten by that mutated ape? Where did Lin Ruoxi get the Rumble-Rumble Fruit? Did she find a way to strip Devil Fruit users of their abilities? Wow, we've done something that only the Dark-Dark Fruit could do."

"Lu Jing has the Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame, Lin Ruoxi has the Thunder Fruit, and Gu Che is bathed in the blood of a dragon, but Shen Mo has nothing. Isn't Pengcheng treating him a bit unfairly?"

"Let alone Pengcheng, even the capital city has treated Gu Che a bit unfairly; the blood of the dragon is just the blood of a mutated creature, at most it's only at the third level, it would be strange if Gu Che's strength wasn't surpassed."

"There's nothing we can do. You can't just find treasures from all the heavens whenever you want. It's just that Lu Jing and Lin Ruoxi were luckier and got the resources that suited them, while Gu Che and Shen Mo were less lucky."

They were just joking; they couldn't possibly believe that the capital and Pengcheng would mistreat Gu Che and Shen Mo in terms of resources. But treasures from all heavens, especially those suitable for them, are not so easy to find.

Lin Ruoxi's Thunder Fruit had its reasons, but Lu Jing's Azure Lotus Earth Core Flame was something that even the Tian Shu Bureaus of other cities hadn't anticipated, let alone them. This shows how well they kept their information confidential.

Then came the eighth person on the list of extraordinary individuals. I thought it would be Zhou Ming from Chaoyang City, who had inherited Yoriichi Tsugikuni's legacy and possessed the physiques of Li Shuyang and the Demon King Muzan, but it turned out to be a completely unfamiliar person.

【TOP 8: Lin Xiu】

[Strength Level: Tier 3]

[Ability: Holder of the Tezuka Kunimitsu template, Sharpness ability]

[Commentary: Based on the state of selflessness, various ball skills are transformed into sword techniques, and the sword energy is condensed to the extreme.]

The ultimate refinement through countless trials endows his sword with an unshakeable aura, a testament to decades of arduous training.

"The ultimate in talent" grants him the ability to predict the future, allowing him to calculate all of his opponent's escape routes before even drawing his sword.
In the state of "Perfect Perfection", man and sword become one, and every strike is perfectly executed, without any flaws.

Because Tezuka Kunimitsu's tennis skills consume very little of his physical strength, his endurance far exceeds that of ordinary third-tier powerhouses, yet his power is in no way weaker. He once single-handedly slaughtered hundreds of mutated creatures in Yunchuan City without sustaining a scratch. "Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap, Tezuka Kunimitsu template holder? Really? Did the Prince of Tennis really save the world?"

"Awesome, this is truly awesome. I never dreamed that someone could obtain the template of a person from the world of Prince of Tennis. The key is that not only did he obtain it, but he is also incredibly strong."

"Are those tennis skills in the Prince of Tennis world very physically demanding?"

"Of course they're small. It's just that the balls they hit are unscientific, but their bodies are scientific, even though it doesn't seem scientific to us."
In reality, those of us with spiritual power, especially those with third-tier strength, possess physical strength far surpassing that of people in the Prince of Tennis world.

What's a relatively low-intensity skill for them is practically negligible for us.

"No wonder he could slaughter hundreds of mutated creatures single-handedly without a scratch. His radiant energy is almost indistinguishable from advanced Observation Haki, and it consumes less stamina. It's like a permanent buff. Who can beat him?"

It was at this moment that more people suddenly started commenting.

"Stop looking at the eighth one, look at the eleventh one, look at the eleventh one now!"

"What? An eleventh one? Can there be a more outrageous character template than that from The Prince of Tennis?"

"That's way too outrageous."

With questions in mind, the group quickly scrolled through the list. Li Shuyang, ranked ninth, and Zhou Ming, ranked tenth, were both familiar faces to them. Their abilities were evenly matched, so it wouldn't be surprising if either of them ranked higher.

But when their gaze fell on the eleventh person, everyone was stunned.

【TOP 11: Fang Yuan】

[Strength Level: Tier 3]

[Abilities: Dual Godhood of Sea God and Asura God - Tang San Template Holder]

[Comment: A gentle and refined gentleman, his every gesture exudes a rare elegance. His gaze is as clear and peaceful as still water, and his words and actions always bring a sense of warmth and comfort. Despite possessing the template of Tang San, he remains humble and polite in his interactions with others. His genuine sincerity and kindness earn him the admiration of all who meet him.]

Fang Yuan's message:
The withered branches, undaunted by the fierce autumn wind, still hold onto their fragrance and remain true to themselves.

I wanted to drift away with the falling leaves, but I am saddened by the fact that the world is full of spring.

Rotten wood can be ignited by thunder, and a hidden dragon awaits the clouds to spread its wings.

Suddenly, a fierce wind arose in the middle of the night, soaring straight up to the ninth heaven to survey the mortal world!

When they saw Fang Yuan's name and that the template for the character he obtained was Tang San's template, they already had a lot to say. When they saw Fang Yuan's final message, they couldn't help but express their feelings.

"Immortal Venerable, is that you? Immortal Venerable?"

"Where is Lord Long? Come quickly! There's a Fang Yuan here. Kill him before he grows up, or there will be endless trouble!"

"The holder of the Tang San template is actually the Great Love Immortal Venerable?"

"Tang San, we admire you! Your loyalty!"

"You'd better genuinely admire them."

"He can't hold it in anymore, he really can't hold it in this time. You're the gentle and refined gentleman, always courteous and polite, your words and actions always make people feel like they're basking in a spring breeze, the pure and immaculate Sea God Tang San, right?"

"It's too abstract. I thought it was abstract enough that the holder of the Prince of Tennis character template was dominating the real world, but I didn't expect there to be something even more abstract."

"Both the Great Love Immortal Venerable and the Sea God Tang San have appeared. The key is that they have the same name and surname, and it even seems that the person who inherited the Immortal Venerable's will obtained the Sea God Tang San's inheritance and even reached the third level. How high is the template compatibility?"

"That's perfectly normal. Tang San is pure in love, and isn't my Great Love Immortal Venerable also pure in love? Tang San values ​​loyalty and righteousness, and isn't my Great Love Immortal Venerable also loyal and righteous? Tang San never regrets his choices, and my Great Love Immortal Venerable even grabbed the Regret Gu and refined it in an instant; isn't it normal to have such a high degree of compatibility?"

"Ha ha ha ha."

"I'm curious whether Douluo fans are now chanting 'I have no regrets joining the Tang Sect in this life, and I will be a member of the Tang Sect again in the next life,' or Immortal Venerable fans are chanting 'I'm just a little bit weathered.'"

"Of course, it's all about saying 'I have no regrets joining the Tang Sect in this life, and I'll be a member of the Tang Sect again in my next life!' Do you really doubt the reverence that the Immortal Venerable's fans have for Tang San? *doge emoji*"

If Ye Xuan's possession of nine celestial treasures brought them a shock in terms of strength and fortune, then Fang Yuan's acquisition of the template of the Sea God Tang San brought them a shock in terms of their souls.

This is really hilarious. They never imagined that the Immortal Venerable and Tang San would get together one day. The key point is that the Tian Shu Bureau's comment said that "Fang Yuan" is a gentle and refined gentleman with eyes as clear and peaceful as still water, and his words and actions are like a spring breeze.

It's like they're just enjoying the spectacle.

And that line, "Although he possesses Tang San's template, he remains humble and polite in his dealings with others," are you trying to say that humility and politeness are qualities that Tang San lacks, and that template holders shouldn't have them in the first place? Or are you saying that it's very rare for someone to maintain a humble character despite possessing the immense power that the template brings?
If it is the former, then Tian Shuju already has a way to bring about his own demise.
