Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 285: Chapter 234: Slaying the Ancient Barbarian Emperor, Completing the Test, and Entering the Royal Court

Jiang Wuqing felt like he’d been set up.

’Damn it, did some rival dig a pit for me, deliberately trying to screw me over?! How the fuck is this something a newbie player can do?’

He could already tell that the nine monkeys in Golden Armor all possessed Celestial God Level combat power. Any single one of them was stronger than the Primordial Destroyer he had descended into!

What was even more outrageous was the sky. Clouds and mist churned as Ten Thousand Celestial Soldiers stood in formation. Lightning covered an area several miles wide, and it didn’t feel fake to him.

There was even background music filling the heavens and the earth.

This was just too ridiculous!

Jiang Wuqing racked his brain but couldn’t think of any skill that could produce a scene like this.

Never mind some minor player from a Newbie World, even among the Starry Sky Gods, few could pull off such a grand, three-dimensional, and multifaceted spectacle.

’If my main body were here, it would probably be in for a world of hurt too.’

’That damn thief has ruined me!’

’Given the current situation, even if thirty thousand soldiers from the Nine Rivers Divine Country were to descend, it would probably be useless!’

’What should I do then?’

’Run. I have to run!’

’Better to avoid the humiliation later!’

’Right, I can still enter the Chaotic World Royal Court.’

’I can’t get in myself, but I can return control of the body to that Little Barbarian. I’ll let him go in and get the World Secret Treasure. That way, I can at least ruin this little thief’s opportunity!’

’If he’s unhappy, I’ll feel a bit better!’

’It’s settled!’

Jiang Wuqing took control of Gu Man Wanshou and tried to flee.

But how could Wang Yi let him get his wish?

He had already spent ten million Chaos Energy just to stop him.

”One hundred thousand bolts of Celestial Thunder, descend!”

”Starlight Flying Swords, go!”

”Kill!”

As Wang Yi spoke, he unleashed four more Qiankun Universe Blades, sealing off all of Jiang Wuqing’s escape routes.

Jiang Wuqing cursed inwardly. He quickly retracted his head and limbs into the Five-Colored Profound Armor, which then fell to the ground with a CLATTER, wobbled, and vanished.

’Did he turn invisible, or did he use an escape art?’

Unable to see Gu Man Wanshou’s phantom, Wang Yi carpet-bombed the area where he had vanished, relentlessly blasting it with lightning and starlight!

At this moment, the nine Monkey Kings were also locked in a fierce battle with the soldiers of the Nine Rivers Divine Country.

Wang Yi observed for a moment. The soldiers of the Nine Rivers Divine Country showed no emotional fluctuation. They looked like armored warriors, but when the nine Monkey Kings smashed them into mechanical parts, it became clear they were actually robots.

Soon, a Nine Rivers Divine General appeared. It wore more ornate Battle Armor, wielded a long-handled greatsword, and was even mounted on a warhorse.

The warhorse looked like a living creature, but it was also a mechanical creation. Tearing away its hide revealed nothing but a mechanical structure inside.

The Nine Rivers Divine General was powerful; it could unleash mighty Slashing Waves with its greatsword and fire Rays from its eyes, but it was still no match for a Monkey King.

Wang Yi diverted some Starlight Flying Swords over, helping the nine Monkey Kings destroy the Nine Rivers Divine General. Its body shattered into parts, its long-handled greatsword self-destructed in an explosion, and it dropped nothing else.

’I don’t know how many soldiers this Stargate can teleport here, and I don’t have time to get involved in this meaningless battle...’

Wang Yi was just thinking of leading the Great Saints, the Ten Thousand Celestial Soldiers, and the Four Heavenly Kings to the Chaotic World Royal Court.

With a CRACK, a burst of five-colored light erupted from the spot being scoured by the Starlight Flying Swords and a hundred thousand bolts of thunder. Gu Man Wanshou had reappeared.

The Five-Colored Turtle Shell around his body was gone, having been forcibly blasted apart and turned into a Five-Colored Light Shield.

And this Five-Colored Light Shield was his final defense.

”Damn it! My Five-Colored Profound Armor was actually blown up! What a huge loss!”

Jiang Wuqing roared in anger. With his Five-Colored Profound Armor destroyed, the Five-Colored Light Shield certainly wouldn’t last long either. He realized he was completely finished this time. Since a safe escape was no longer possible, his only option was to make a last stand.

”Nine Rivers Army, heed my command! At all costs, kill this little thief for me!”

Jiang Wuqing pointed at Wang Yi.

Following his command, the Nine Rivers Army did indeed charge recklessly toward Wang Yi.

Wang Yi snorted lightly and scoured the ground with a hundred thousand bolts of thunder, quickly wiping out the Nine Rivers soldiers.

The nine Monkey Kings, who had been fighting independently, now returned to Wang Yi’s side to protect him, striking down any enemy that approached.

The Five-Colored Light Shield was still being bombarded by the Starlight Flying Swords. Inside, Gu Man Wanshou pounded his chest, stomped his feet, and ground his teeth in fury.

”You little thief, do you dare leave your name? We’ll fight again on another World Line!”

Wang Yi paid him no mind.

A moment later, the Five-Colored Light Shield shattered. Jiang Wuqing charged out from within, raising a fist to strike Wang Yi.

But the Starlight Flying Swords swarmed down. Without the protection of the Five-Colored Profound Armor, he was instantly engulfed by starlight, his body mangled in the blink of an eye.

But in the instant before his figure completely vanished, he suddenly let out an furious roar.

”Damn you, evil creature! You’ve doomed me! My clan is exterminated...”

That was Gu Man Wanshou shouting!

Jiang Wuqing’s consciousness had left the body, allowing Gu Man Wanshou to regain control.

But it was all irreparable!

His fate was sealed!

Gu Man Wanshou’s body dissolved amidst the cascading starlight.

”Ding! You have killed the Emperor of the Ancient Barbarian Country, Gu Man Wanshou, interrupting the Destroyer storyline and achieving a special accomplishment. Reward: 300,000 Gold Coins, one Red Light Blind Box, one Heart of the Destroyer. The items have been sent to your Chaos Warehouse. Please check for them!”

”Ding! You have killed the Emperor of the Ancient Barbarian Country, Gu Man Wanshou, and all 16 princes of the Ancient Barbarian Country, achieving a hidden accomplishment. Reward: one Ancient Barbarian Kingdom’s Great Secret Treasure Map, one Super Experience Book, one Special-Level Five-Color Blind Box. The items have been automatically sent to your Chaos Warehouse!”

”Ding! The Emperor of the Ancient Barbarian Country has been slain in battle. All of his directly owned slaves are now free. The Ancient Barbarian Country’s Border Barrier is now unsealed by 16/20. The freely explorable area has been expanded by 100 li!”

Hearing the system prompts, Wang Yi breathed a silent sigh of relief.

’I finally killed that barbarian!’

’But when did I kill all 16 princes of the Ancient Barbarian Country?’

’Could it be from when the barbarian revived before, and his sons died in his place...’

Wang Yi immediately figured out the key point. ’This isn’t so bad,’ he thought. ’That Stellar Descender helped me complete a hidden achievement.’

’This wave of rewards isn’t half bad...’

Suddenly, Wang Yi’s eyes lit up.

The system rewards had already been sent to the Chaos Warehouse, but Gu Man Wanshou had also dropped items.

He stepped forward to inspect and found: one [High-Level Barbarian Witch Blood Stone], one [Big Slave Master’s Reassignment Certificate], one set of [High-level Barbarian Witch Armor], one [High-Level Slave Collection Scroll], and one [Super Universal Experience Book].

As well as one [Wind-Avoidance Pearl] and a pair of [Broken Wind and Fire Wheels]!

”A pretty good haul!”

Seeing these spoils of war, Wang Yi’s mood improved considerably.

He examined them carefully. There were quite a few good things among the loot.

First was the [Wind-Avoidance Pearl]. This item was a Magical Treasure, and using it in the Gale Wilderness was practically like having a Divine Artifact.

The [Broken Wind and Fire Wheel] wasn’t bad either. It was a special piece of equipment that could be used to attack people or for travel. It could glide on the ground or fly in the sky, but as it was a broken version, it was easily wrecked.

Wang Yi tried to repair it with his No-Damage Attack but found it didn’t work. This Broken Wind and Fire Wheel was an imitation; it was made this way and couldn’t be repaired into a genuine article.

However, this item could be given to Wang Bushi. When it was about to be wrecked, he could have Wang Bushi take it with him to his death, then they would both revive together. That way, it could be used forever!

”My son is never going to use anything good in this lifetime...”

Wang Yi muttered to himself, then used the Super Experience Book. His Lord Experience increased by one hundred thousand, and his total Experience Points reached 558,960!

’The Barbarian Witch Blood Stone and Barbarian Witch Battle Armor will go to Man Datou. I’ll use the Slave Collection Scroll after I get back to my territory. The Big Slave Master’s Reassignment Certificate is good, I’ll hold onto it for now...’

Wang Yi quickly packed up the loot and turned his full attention to dealing with the Nine Rivers Army teleporting through the Stargate.

With no one to command them, the army of the Nine Rivers Divine Country fought mindlessly, like wild monsters.

Wang Yi fought them with his nine Celestial God Level Monkey Kings, the Ten Thousand Celestial Soldiers, the Four Heavenly Kings, the Qiankun Universe Blades, and more. Victory was not difficult.

About half an hour later, the thirty thousand Nine Rivers soldiers were all dead, and the Stargate disappeared.

However, the Nine Rivers Imperial Decree flew up, and a voice suddenly came from within: ”Thank you for cooperating with our combat test. A battle report has been generated and transmitted back to the Divine Country. As a token of our gratitude, you may collect the remains of the soldiers!”

After the voice faded, the Nine Rivers Imperial Decree immediately turned into a speck of light, which then vanished with a soft POP.

”Collect my ass!”

Wang Yi snorted. ’After all that commotion, after I summoned the Ten Thousand Celestial Soldiers, it was all just for a combat test for the Nine Rivers Divine Country?’

’I spent a full ten million Chaos Energy!’

’And the loot I got in return was a field of broken robots?’

’Isn’t this just recycling trash?’

Although he was a bit displeased, Wang Yi still opened his Starlight Bracelet and quickly gathered the remains of the Nine Rivers soldiers. It was just like when he had collected the Green Demon remains in the Green Demon World. He decided to treat it as picking up metal ore; maybe it would be useful someday.

Wang Yi spent ten minutes cleaning up the battlefield. Not wanting to delay any longer, he recalled the Qiankun Universe Blades, issued a command, and led the nine Monkey Kings, the Ten Thousand Celestial Soldiers, and the Four Heavenly Kings in a mighty procession toward the Chaotic World Royal Court.

Of course, Wang Yi also brought out the Bronze War Chariot and met up with Li Longyu. The two of them sat in the chariot as Wang Yi continued to ride-share his way forward.

Afterward, Wang Yi encountered no further obstacles and had a smooth journey to the entrance of the Chaotic World Royal Court.

Wang Yi stopped the Bronze War Chariot before the entrance to the Chaotic World Royal Court and surveyed his surroundings. No other players had arrived yet.

’For an ordinary person, traveling 3,000 li against the wind here is an incredibly difficult task. It’s normal that no one else has reached the Chaotic World Royal Court...’

Wang Yi led Li Longyu out of the chariot and said, ”There’s no time to waste. Yu’er, let’s go in!”

”Okay!”

Li Longyu nodded and then walked with Wang Yi toward the entrance of the Chaotic World Royal Court.

The entrance was a Teleportation Light Ball. Wang Yi stepped into it and arrived in a vast, empty Crystal Palace.

The palace was so large that one could not see its end. It was utterly silent. The floor was paved with crystal as smooth as a mirror, and the walls and dome were also made of crystal.

”This is a grand tomb!”

Li Longyu suddenly spoke.

Wang Yi was holding her hand and noticed it was trembling. She seemed cold, pulling her clothes tighter around herself. She spoke a sentence that startled even herself.

”Ah, how strange. I feel like some memories that don’t belong to me are appearing in my mind. Something up ahead is calling to me.”

Li Longyu rubbed her head, but just then, Wang Yi received a system prompt: ”Ding! You have escorted the plot character Li Longyu to the Chaotic World Royal Court. Mission complete. Reward: one Li Longyu Information Scroll, one Golden Blind Box, one Golden Chaos Egg.”

”Ding! Congratulations, you have arrived at the Chaotic World Royal Court. Please proceed and choose one of the 3,333 Royal Court Treasures. After you have made your choice, the Corridor of Chaos storyline will end, and all players in the Typhon World will be swiftly repatriated!”
