Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 376: Chapter 279: Alien Star Royal Court, Battling the Starry Sky Again

But once the battle began, ”Zhen Yuan’s” power far exceeded her expectations. If she hadn’t already known he was a Chaos Lord, she would have sworn he was some powerful, ancient demon reincarnated as an Adventurer.

Now that the Stargate was open and she had the Golden Lion Venerable’s promise, Feng Qi felt she had nothing left to worry about.

”Exotic Star Centipedes, all of you, on my command—shatter the World Line!”

Feng Qi shouted, and a vast swarm of Exotic Star Centipedes launched a ferocious assault. The World Line’s Durability plummeted.

At that moment, anyone looking up from the surface of Typhon World would have seen the sky flicker erratically. Shadows wheeled overhead, accompanied by the constant rumble of thunder.

Wang Yi’s brow creased. Fighting alone, he was swarmed by countless Exotic Star Centipedes, making it impossible to defend himself completely. He suddenly laughed, looked to the sky, and stepped onto the Starlight River, instantly flying through the Starlight Gate.

The Starlight Gate connected to the Alien Star Royal Court, so by entering it, Wang Yi had arrived in their domain.

It was like diving headfirst into a nest of giant beasts. Wang Yi found himself surrounded by Exotic Star Centipedes. Treading on starlight, he zipped through their ranks and quickly soared high into the sky.

Now, Wang Yi looked down upon the land. The Starlight Gate stood in a valley, beside which was a massive, ochre-colored mountain.

Huge caves riddled the mountain, and it was from these that the Exotic Star Centipedes were emerging.

Farther in the distance were palaces, roads, lakes, and cities. Wang Yi could even see an ocean, its azure waters stretching to the horizon!

”This is a pocket dimension!”

Wang Yi realized at once.

’If I weren’t so strong, an ordinary Player would have been killed countless times by now. These high-level players—or maybe I should call them legacy players—are unbearably arrogant. Since they’ve brought the fight to my doorstep, they can’t blame me for striking back!’

As the thoughts flashed through his mind, Wang Yi roared. He met the charging Exotic Star Centipedes with his Cyan Blade Sword and simultaneously activated his Commanding Mountains and Rivers skill, attempting to Refine the great mountain below.

RUMBLE!

The great mountain shuddered and lifted slightly, sending rocks tumbling down as cracks spiderwebbed across its surface, but it quickly settled back into place.

It was as if someone had tried to violently uproot the mountain, but its foundations ran too deep to be moved.

Wang Yi received a system notification: ”Ding! The current mountain is part of a Player’s territory and is protected by a Heart of Chaos. Your Divine Techniques cannot easily Refine it.”

Wang Yi snorted, unsurprised.

His Huaguo Mountain had originally been Qixia Mountain within Ye Qitian’s territory. He had only been able to Refine it after Ye Qitian moved the territory’s Heart of Chaos.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to Refine.

Back then, however, Wang Yi had been using the Commanding Mountains and Rivers skill. Now, he was using the Mountain and River Divine Techniques!

The power of a Divine Technique far surpassed that of a skill!

Even though his current Mountain and River Divine Techniques couldn’t fully Refine the mountain below, they could still make it tremble and crack. That was a form of destruction in itself.

Wang Yi was confident that as his Mountain and River Divine Techniques grew stronger, he might even be able to forcibly Refine the natural landscapes within another’s territory.

’Since I can’t Refine it, I’ll just give you another mountain!’

Wang Yi grunted, and with a mere thought, a speck of light shot out from between his eyebrows. The light transformed into the Great Ore Vein Mountain God, which in turn quickly reverted to the form of the Great Ore Vein Mountain itself. The mountain plummeted, crashing down upon the one below.

BOOM! The ore mountain detonated, blasting away several nearby Exotic Star Centipedes. The explosion also shattered the peak of the mountain below. The ground quaked, sending debris flying as the massive caves within the mountain instantly collapsed.

”Mountain and River Repair!”

Wang Yi shouted again. Mountain and River True Qi materialized out of thin air and repaired the detonated Great Ore Vein Mountain. The mountain then swiftly flew back to a spot between Wang Yi’s eyebrows. It didn’t need to be Refined again; it was still his.

After the *Commanding Mountains and Rivers* skill transformed into the Mountain and River Divine Techniques, there was no longer a need to ”unbind” anything. He could discard any unwanted landscapes at will. Before doing so, he was free to do whatever he pleased with them—shattering them, parting waters with them, using them as projectiles, or simply recalling them into his body.

Using the same method, Wang Yi detonated mountains three more times, completely obliterating the mountain below. This drove the Exotic Star Centipedes into a frenzy. Ignoring the Stargate, they began to pursue Wang Yi with reckless abandon.

”Hmph. I don’t have time to waste on you!”

Wang Yi snorted. Starlight gathered beneath his feet, and with a single step, he shot off into the distance, quickly arriving above the city he had spotted earlier.

The city was still relatively crude, but it already had skyscrapers and a large population.

Wang Yi flew into the city, opening his Chaos Realm to retrieve the Four Symbols Gourd. He didn’t bother examining the cityscape. With a thought, he enlarged the Four Symbols Gourd to a height of one hundred feet. Its mouth flashed, and a furious wind howled forth.

Wang Yi had collected these winds from the Divine Wind Secret Realm. They were laced with a potent toxin, powerful enough to kill even a Starry Sky God.

”Who’s there?”

”Who is this intruder?”

”What is that Magical Treasure?”

”Oh no, it’s a poison wind!”

A few Players flew into the sky, shouting in anger, only to retreat in terror.

Wang Yi gave them a cursory glance. They were residents of the Alien Star Royal Court, around level 150. He had no interest in a closer look. He snorted, and his right hand snatched at the air. Using his Great Power Divine Techniques, he pulled a massive axe from the void.

Next came the Heaven-Opening Law—an axe to sunder the heavens!

But this heaven-sundering axe cleaved the city below, toppling buildings, caving in the ground, and shattering the very earth.

The Heaven-Opening Law was, in reality, a profound form of spatial attack. It could destroy space, but it could also create it.

Using this move once again caused his own territory’s ecosystem to degrade, but a single swing of the axe could annihilate a city and slaughter countless Mortals.

At that same moment, back in Typhon World above the World Line, Feng Qi’s face went pale with shock. She received a system notification: her Exotic Star Centipede nest-mountain had been destroyed, and one of her major regional cities had suffered catastrophic damage and immense casualties.

’Who in the world is this Zhen Yuan? How can he be so savage? Could he really be the reincarnation of some mighty being?!’

Panicked, Feng Qi wasted no time. She addressed the Golden Lion Illusion, ”Venerable, that Zhen Yuan has invaded my territory and is wreaking havoc. The situation is critical! I need to return and pull some of the Exotic Star Centipedes back to hunt him down!”

”Hmph. Leave seventy percent of the Exotic Star Centipedes here. You may take thirty percent back with you.”

The Golden Lion Illusion said in a deep voice.

Feng Qi didn’t dare to disobey and did as she was told.

Moments later, she passed through the Starlight Gate and returned to her territory. By then, Wang Yi was already destroying a second city.

This second city had Defense Towers and was garrisoned by a Flying Fly Army. Wang Yi was reluctant to use his Heaven-Opening Law again, so he attacked using only the Starlight River, his Mountain and River Divine Techniques, and the Four Symbols Gourd, prioritizing the destruction of the buildings.

After Xiongshan laid waste to the city, Wang Yi changed his position and headed elsewhere.

’I wonder where the Heart of Chaos is here. If I find it, I’ll destroy it for sure. Then we’ll see what this Royal Court can do,’ Wang Yi mused.

A moment later, Wang Yi was intercepted before he could reach the third city.

Feng Qi had returned, bringing a horde of Exotic Star Centipedes with her. At the same time, countless fighter jets hovered in the sky while rocket launchers appeared on the ground. Swarms of armored soldiers, wearing Masks and wielding Laser Guns, charged out from the city.

”Oh? You’re back? Aren’t you supposed to be commanding the battle on the front lines?”

Wang Yi shot a glance at Feng Qi, then acted decisively. He took out a Town Recall Scroll and used it instantly.

A few breaths later, Wang Yi tore through space and returned to his own territory, appearing in front of the Eco-Castle.

He immediately summoned Xiang Yun, Wang Bushi, Jelena, and the others, shouting, ”The enemy’s ambition to invade hasn’t died! They’re still bombarding the World Line! Use the Wind and Cloud Banner, rally the troops, and follow me back into the Starry Sky to fight!”

”Yes, sir!”

Everyone responded in unison.

Soon, a fleet of Bronze Spaceships gathered in Eggshell Square as the experts of Wang Yi’s territory quickly assembled.

There was the Great Slave Lord Ji Liangren; Yue Zheng, who had just advanced to Demon Gun Knight; Pill Dao Venerable Zhao Mei and Divine Refiner Liang Xiaoyu from the Refining Profound Sect; and even Yun Rou, the Sky Breaker handyman, came to join in on the action.

Soon, thirteen Bronze Spaceships ascended into the sky. Treading on starlight, Wang Yi returned to the battle above the World Line.
