Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 365: Chapter 274: Come Back with Me

Wang Yi was on a rampage, fighting with complete disregard for the energy he spent. A single swing of his Heaven-Opening Axe slew over a thousand Golden Core Cultivators and simultaneously created a small world. He continued to slay his enemies, unleashing his Starlight Flying Sword, which surged like a great river, a raging wave. It was a great slaughter, an absolute slaughter, a merciless, automated slaughter!

Amidst the battle, Wang Yi felt as if he were training an AI. A single thought was all it took for his various Divine Techniques to coordinate and unleash a constant barrage of moves. Their coordination grew more fluid, their attacks more powerful.

One hundred thousand Golden Core Cultivators didn’t seem to be nearly enough for him to cut loose on.

Of course, Wang Bushi and Wang Sanmei were also formidable. The former simply blew himself up mindlessly, while the latter, despite not having yet learned the Sanmei Divine Wind, wielded the Palm Leaf Fan. Backed by over three thousand Celestial Eagle Warriors, she had enough power to crush ordinary Golden Core Cultivators.

The nine Monkey King Avatars, the hundred thousand Celestial Soldiers, and the Four Heavenly Kings were also pulling their weight.

The battlefield was chaos incarnate, as if heaven and earth were being torn apart.

Zhang Xuyi was stunned. He hastily recalled the half of his army he had sent to attack the World Line and took refuge inside his Mountain and River Battle Sword.

’How can this be? Is that guy, Zhenyuan, really a Player from a Newbie Village? How is he so powerful? Are Golden Core Cultivators just cannon fodder to him?’

Zhang Xuyi narrowed his eyes. It had been no easy feat to assemble this army of Golden Core Cultivators after campaigning across the Starry Sky for so many years. To watch them be expended as cannon fodder now made his heart ache as if it were bleeding.

”Nascent Soul Cultivators, to battle!”

With a roar from Zhang Xuyi, numerous figures shot out from his Mountain and River Battleship.

Each figure was protected by a Primordial Energy Shield and sat cross-legged atop a flying Great Sword. Most of them wore green robes and had long hair. Some were forming Finger Techniques, others were piloting Flying Swords, a few played flutes, and still others held compasses...

They had different names, different methods, and different Magical Treasures, but they were all one and the same: Nascent Soul Cultivators!

Nascent Soul Cultivators corresponded to Levels 101 through 200, with combat power on par with the Celestial God Level.

If King Level units were the apex of the mortal world, then Celestial God Level units were beings that had already ascended!

Even for someone like Zhang Xuyi, nurturing a single Nascent Soul Cultivator was no easy task. The rulers of the World of Suffering, most Abyss Gazers, and even the Starry Sky Gods of the Fourth Dimension—their power was all at this level!

Zhang Xuyi had only three hundred Nascent Soul Cultivators under his command, and he knew every single one of them. Ordering them all to mobilize was an act of desperation he had never anticipated having to make.

”Kill them! I want them all dead! Annihilate them and destroy this Newbie World!”

Zhang Xuyi bellowed.

Once the three hundred Nascent Soul Cultivators made their move, the tide of battle turned instantly. They unleashed a variety of techniques, and the nine Celestial God Level Monkey Kings were swiftly annihilated.

The moment these nine Monkey Kings died, the one hundred thousand Celestial Soldiers and the Four Heavenly Kings vanished along with them.

For the first time, the eleventh tier of the Fantasy Avatar’s power was shattered in a direct confrontation.

Wang Yi became their primary target. More than two hundred Nascent Soul Cultivators swarmed him, each employing their own unique methods. Small triangular flags scattered around them as various formations were laid out—minor arrays, major arrays, profound arrays, and Killing Arrays.

A storm of Magical Treasures—Flying Swords, copper furnaces, mystical pagodas, and golden hammers—rained down on Wang Yi. Bolts of lightning, gouts of flame, and shards of ice struck in relentless waves. The sheer variety of dazzling techniques was overwhelming.

Even Wang Yi’s Starlight Flying Sword was suppressed, and his Chaos Energy depleted at an alarming rate.

’I can’t let this continue,’ Wang Yi thought. ’Even with my vast reserves, I can’t afford this rate of consumption. Once my Chaos Energy runs out, using Divine Techniques will start draining my territory’s foundations, and the consequences will be severe. I have to either end this quickly or make a new long-term plan!’

His mind made up, Wang Yi swung his great axe. The Heaven-Opening Law manifested again, slaying two Nascent Soul Cultivators and a large swath of Golden Core ones, tearing a gap in their encirclement!

”Wang Bushi, Wang Sanmei, take the Celestial Eagle Warriors and fall back! Go get reinforcements!”

With that, Wang Yi charged toward the Mountain and River Battle Sword, absorbing all attacks head-on. Mountain and River True Qi swirled around his body, continuously repairing his Great Ore Vein Mountain God avatar.

”Quick, stop him! You must stop him at all costs!”

Zhang Xuyi shrieked, and masses of Nascent Soul and Golden Core Cultivators immediately swarmed to intercept Wang Yi.

But Wang Yi was like a Vajra Indestructible Barbarian God. He roared as his Starlight Flying Sword carved a path forward. Seemingly unstoppable, he closed in on the Mountain and River Battleship, roared again, and swung his giant axe with all his might!

RUMBLE! RUMBLE! RUMBLE...

A phantom of the giant axe, thousands of feet tall, appeared and chopped vertically down at the Mountain and River Battleship. A thunderous explosion erupted. The mountains and rivers shattered, the Battle Sword broke, and flames soared into the sky!

”My Mountain and River Battle Sword!”

Zhang Xuyi was shocked, furious, and utterly heartbroken. He stood within a shattered pavilion that, along with the destroyed Battle Sword, now plummeted toward the World Line below.

Just then, a figure clad in purple appeared. He gave chase to the shattered pavilion and, with a wave of his hand, pulled Zhang Xuyi out. Zhang Xuyi flew through the air and came to a gentle stop before the purple-clad figure.

”Fourth Uncle!” Zhang Xuyi said, cupping his fists toward the purple figure. ”I implore you, Fourth Uncle, please intervene and kill that Immortal Zhenyuan!”

The purple-clad figure had matching purple hair and an expression of cold indifference. His name was Zhang Yunlu, a Divinity Transformation Cultivator at Level 220!

This Zhang Yunlu was the Xuyi Royal Court’s one and only Divinity Transformation Cultivator, serving under Zhang Xuyi as a trump card akin to a nuclear weapon. He had been hatched by Zhang Xuyi from a Mixed Stew Egg and was known as Zhang Xuyi’s fourth uncle. He was cold and arrogant by nature, with a single flaw: he had a terrible sense of direction and was prone to getting lost.

Within the system of Cultivation, a Divinity Transformation Cultivator had already transcended the ”Celestial God Level” classification. Their combat power was immensely greater than that of an ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator.

”I take no pleasure in these conflicts... but so be it. Seeing as so many of our sect’s disciples have been killed or injured, I suppose it is time for these old bones to stir. As for you, return to the Royal Court. Don’t get yourself killed.”

As Zhang Yunlu spoke, he reached out and flicked a finger at Zhang Xuyi. A Primordial Energy Shield instantly enveloped him while a gentle force whisked him into the distance, causing him to fade into the void and disappear from sight.
