Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 380: Chapter 281: Spaceship Chaos Egg (Part 2)

Mo Liang had just received a message from the Royal Court headquarters. He was now sitting at the very top of Centipede City’s central Crystal Tower, holding a glass of red wine and leisurely gazing at the sky.

’A Level 405 World-Ending Black Dragon... at that level, he must be a Venerable from the Mingyu Divine Country. For such a major figure to be hunting a little Player... if I can lend him a hand, I might just stumble upon a heaven-sent opportunity...’

Mo Liang’s eyes narrowed as he schemed in his heart.

Just then, someone came to report, saying, ”City Lord, this is bad! The monitoring station shows that the world’s intruder is heading for Centipede City! He’s moving extremely fast and is expected to reach the skies above the city in two minutes!”

Instead of being alarmed, Mo Liang was delighted. ”Excellent! Pass down my order! Raise the Pulse Defense Towers. The moment that intruder arrives, annihilate him from a distance!”

The messenger was taken aback. ”City Lord, the Royal Court issued an order... I believe it said not to provoke that person!”

Mo Liang drained his glass of red wine in one gulp, then smashed it. ”Hmph! Do I need you to remind me? Desperate times call for desperate measures! Just follow my orders. The rest is none of your concern!” he bellowed.

”Yes, sir!”

The messenger retreated, trembling. He dared not defy Mo Liang’s command and could only obey.

And so, one after another, tall towers resembling crystal pillars slowly rose from the ground within Centipede City.

These were the Pulse Defense Towers. They could only fire once every three minutes, but their attacks were incredibly powerful. The entire Alien Star Royal Court had a total of 16 Pulse Defense Towers, all of them deployed in Centipede City specifically to defend the cosmic spaceship incubation base!

The incubation base was one of the most important structures in the Alien Star Royal Court. The technology to manufacture cosmic spaceships was difficult to crack, so the Alien Star Royal Court’s current fleet was hatched from that very base.

To be precise, the incubation base could create Chaos Eggs that would hatch into Cosmic Spaceships!

And right now, the incubation base was at a critical juncture. An unprecedentedly high-grade Chaos Egg was about to be created.

Feng Qi had expended a massive amount of resources for this Chaos Egg and placed extreme importance on it. Her deployment of the 16 Pulse Defense Towers in Centipede City was, in fact, primarily to protect this very egg.

As the 16 Pulse Defense Towers rose, Wang Yi was about to arrive in the skies above Centipede City.

He was being pursued relentlessly by the Black Dragon Venerable and had no time to stop. He was currently using Starlight Rush, his thoughts racing as he tried to figure out a way to escape.

Suddenly, a bright blue light flashed before his eyes!

The 16 Pulse Defense Towers had fired. Laser-like blue beams struck Wang Yi with perfect accuracy.

Wang Yi let out a muffled groan as the Great Ore Vein Mountain God Battle Armor on his body shattered.

The combined attack from the 16 Pulse Defense Towers was powerful enough to destroy a great ore vein mountain, and the remaining force slammed into Wang Yi’s physical body, making him feel a long-forgotten pain.

The attack also temporarily interrupted Wang Yi’s Starlight Rush. He staggered in the air before plummeting from the sky like a cannonball. A Divine Technique automatically activated to protect him, once again bestowing a new set of Great Ore Vein Mountain God Battle Armor upon him!

”Success!”

Mo Liang was overjoyed and flew down from the Crystal Tower.

’The Waga Royal Court is watching us covetously, and our own Royal Court is in a difficult position. Feng Qi wants to seek the protection of the Mingyu Divine Country. Isn’t this the perfect time to make a good impression?’

As his thoughts raced, Mo Liang flew at top speed toward the spot where Wang Yi had fallen. He soon saw a giant stone figure kneeling on one knee and shouted, ”You Little Lord! I, the City Lord, am here! Where do you think you’re running? Surrender obediently!”

Wang Yi ignored the man before him and instead looked back.

In that brief moment, the Black Dragon Venerable had already caught up.

BOOM! Thunder cracked as dark clouds roiled.

The Black Dragon Venerable seemed to bring a thunderstorm with him, his thousand-zhang body weaving and swimming through the dark clouds.

Mo Liang looked up at the sky and hurried to meet him. Kneeling on one knee in mid-air, he said in a solemn voice, ”This humble one is Mo Liang, here to help the Venerable stop this little thief!”

BOOM!

The Black Dragon Venerable extended his massive head from the dark clouds, but instead of speaking, he opened his mouth and spat out a Thunderfire Bomb.

The Thunderfire Bomb was over twenty zhang in diameter, wreathed in terrifying lightning. It was far larger than Jelena’s Small Fireball.

However, it wasn’t aimed at Wang Yi. It flew directly toward Mo Liang.

With a deafening BOOM, the Thunderfire Bomb exploded. Mo Liang let out a blood-curdling scream as his body was blasted into pieces and then incinerated into nothingness. The bomb’s power undiminished, it slammed into the ground, causing the earth to tremble and ripple like waves, destroying countless buildings in the process.

”Hmph. When I kill someone, I don’t need you to meddle,” the Black Dragon Venerable muttered. He then looked at Wang Yi and shouted, ”Go on, little fellow, keep running!”

Wang Yi remained silent. With a single thought, eight Qiankun Universe Blades appeared around him. They immediately transformed into eight Starlight Rivers, from which countless Starlight Flying Swords shot forth, surging toward the Black Dragon Venerable.

The Black Dragon Venerable coiled its body, and an invisible barrier formed around it. A dense series of CLANGS rang out as the Starlight Flying Swords struck what felt like a Vajra Barrier. They couldn’t pierce it, were deflected, and quickly dissipated!

”Oh? Attacking with a Starlight River? A pity it’s too primitive. It can’t even break my Demon Dragon Body-Protecting Gang Qi!”

The World-Ending Black Dragon’s voice was filled with mockery.

Wang Yi said nothing. With a thought, his Mountain and River True Qi left his body, and the Starlight Rivers condensed back into eight Qiankun Universe Blades, which hovered protectively around him.

Starlight appeared beneath his feet again, and he continued onward, flying close to the ground in search of an escape route.

The Black Dragon Venerable toyed with him, waving its Dragon Claw to call down bolts of world-ending black lightning. The bolts tore up the ground, herding Wang Yi along at an unhurried pace.

It was as if the apocalypse had come to Centipede City. Countless buildings were destroyed, and innumerable residents were caught in the crossfire.

Whether they were Mortals, Cultivators, or even Starry Sky Gods above Level 100, all died instantly beneath the black lightning summoned by the Black Dragon Venerable.

’Truly worthy of a World-Ending Black Dragon who has destroyed worlds seven times... Is he deliberately toying with me...?’

Wang Yi gritted his teeth as he barrelled wildly through the city, suddenly smashing into a massive, spaceship-shaped building.

Inside, Wang Yi’s gaze swept across the room and landed on a Dark Gold pool. In the center of the pool floated a Dark Gold Chaos Egg.

[Chaos Egg: Special Type, Mutated Egg, Dark Golden Quality. Maturity: 92%. Upon maturation, consume 100 points of Chaos Energy to hatch a super cosmic spaceship.]

’Hmm? What’s Dark Golden Quality? Cosmic Spaceships can be hatched?’

Wang Yi’s thoughts raced, but he had no time to ponder. He had found a strange Chaos Egg, and it would be a waste not to take it. He moved forward, collected the Dark Gold Chaos Egg, and promptly smashed through the opposite wall to continue his escape.

Behind him, black lightning descended, and the cosmic spaceship incubation base was swiftly destroyed.

Far away, watching this scene on a monitor, Feng Qi was so furious she could have coughed up blood.

”Mo Liang, you damned fool, you’ve been the death of me! My incubation base... gone, just like that...”

Feng Qi stomped her foot. Her territory had a Soul Altar that could resurrect Mo Liang, but she had no intention of doing so.

’That idiot’s death is no great loss! But things can’t go on like this. I have to make those two leave, or my entire Royal Court will be dragged down with them...’

Feng Qi thought quickly. She wasn’t sure if Wang Yi had deliberately lured the Black Dragon Venerable here, but having the two of them in her world was a disaster.

A moment later, Feng Qi decided to build Starlight Gates. She was no longer considering seeking the protection of the Mingyu Divine Country; she just wanted Wang Yi to leave as soon as possible.

Feng Qi boarded a Cosmic Spaceship, predicted Wang Yi’s escape route, and flew ahead to set up Starlight Gates.

One, two, three... five... ten...

She built one Starlight Gate after another in the most conspicuous locations. For convenience, the gates all connected to places where she knew the spatial coordinates.

Of course, all of those places were far away from her Alien Star Royal Court.

But while the Starlight Gates were easy to build, Wang Yi refused to cooperate. He saw the gates, but he was wary and unwilling to enter them!

After Centipede City was reduced to ruins, Wang Yi led the Black Dragon Venerable through two more cities. He could feel that the Black Dragon Venerable was just toying with him, following unhurriedly and launching attacks that were more annoying than damaging.

’This Black Dragon Venerable is despicable. It seems I won’t know peace until I deal with him completely... In that case, I need to leave this world first and find some uncharted territory!’

Wang Yi’s thoughts raced. A moment later, upon reaching a coastline, he flew into a Starlight Gate. The destination on the other side was, of all places, the Mountain and River World!
