Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 363: Chapter 273: The Battle to Defend the World

North of Huaguo Mountain was a small hill, rich in Ice Crystal Coconuts and Crown Bananas.

This small hill was named High-dimensional Mountain, and at its peak stood the ruins of the High-Dimensional Divine Hall!

Just then, a flash of light appeared inside the Divine Hall, and Wang Yi emerged. He had completed a descent mission and obtained 100 Descent Points.

These 100 Descent Points were credited to the name ”Yang Jian.”

Inside the Descent Divine Hall, Wang Yi used a new Descent Certificate. He activated his Forged Divine Techniques and created a new identity: Zhen Yuanzi!

’Zhen Yuanzi, Immortal Zhenyuan, Ancestor of Earth Immortals, Five Villages Temple Master... this is my third identity!’

Wang Yi made a few quick adjustments, and the Descent Certificate took effect.

”DING! Congratulations, your Descender identity has been activated! You have received a Newbie Pack, which will now open automatically...”

”DING! Congratulations! You have received 100 Descent Points, one limited-time True Body Descent Experience Coupon, one limited-time Abyss Gazer Experience Coupon, and one limited-time Destruction Experience Coupon.”

’Just as I thought. Same old, same old.’

’The only thing Wang Yi really cared about was the limited-time True Body Descent Experience Coupon. He figured that since he had nothing urgent to do, he might as well use it to travel to a low-level world, complete a descent mission, reap some rewards, and broaden his horizons.’

After leaving the High-Dimensional Divine Hall, Wang Yi headed straight for the Eco-Castle. He rarely involved himself in managing the territory, but he wanted to check the list for the third batch of people slated to cross into the World of Suffering.

As soon as he entered the Eco-Castle, Wang Yi saw an exhibition hall.

Displayed in the hall were ”ancestral” heirlooms: a vase (chamber pot), a musical instrument (wooden fish), a wine pot, a cigarette case, handcuffs, a poncho, and other objects. Past this hall was Jelena’s eco-office.

Wang Yi entered the office, but before he could ask Jelena about the list for the third group heading to the World of Suffering, she beat him to it. ”Father, you’ve finally returned! Did you know? Princess Longyu has gone to the Celestial Net Country to activate the Celestial Net Array.”

”Hmm? What is that foolish Yu’Er trying to do?”

Wang Yi was slightly surprised.

Jelena continued, ”Big Brother and Third Sister have already taken the Galaxy Airship to chase after her. I have no idea what the situation is now.”

’Yu’Er has three Giant Ape guards with the power of Celestial Gods. Her safety shouldn’t be an issue. I’m just afraid she’ll do something foolish on her own!’

A bad feeling welled up inside him. With a flick of his long sleeve, Wang Yi declared, ”Fine. I’ll go take a look myself!”

As he finished speaking, a speck of light flew from between his brows as a river of stars unfurled beneath his feet. He activated Starlight Rush, and with a single thought, vanished in an instant.

In the span of just two breaths, Wang Yi arrived at Celestial Essence City, the capital of the Celestial Net Country.

The great city was now in pieces. Not only that, but its six Garrison Cities had also been completely destroyed. It was as if a massive Earthquake had struck. The area inside and outside the city was a scene of utter devastation—houses had collapsed, countless Mortals were displaced, and the royal capital itself was a ruin.

The cause of all this was the activation of the Celestial Net Array.

The Celestial Net Array required Li Longyu to open it and six Royal Authority Items to activate it. Once the array was open, the Celestial Compass hidden deep beneath Celestial Essence City would emerge, inevitably causing the city to be destroyed.

There was a plot mission involved here. Wang Yi had missed it, and other Players had been unable to participate. Li Longyu had completed it all on her own.

’Li Longyu’s mission was a World Quest concerning the entire Newbie World. I had intended to delay it, but I never thought Yu’Er would take the initiative to complete it, and so decisively at that. She must have sensed something. Otherwise, given her lazy disposition, she never would have done such a thing!’

Wang Yi’s face was grim. He scanned his surroundings but saw no sign of Li Longyu. The Bronze Ship and the Galaxy Airship were also nowhere to be seen.

’Where did she go?’

Wang Yi had a suspicion. He looked up toward the sky, and at that exact moment, a world announcement suddenly rang out: ”DING! World plot advancing. The Star Compass has been activated. Key story character Li Longyu has broken through the World Line. The World Unsealing Mission has officially begun!”

”DING! The world barrier has merged with the World Line, gaining 10 billion Durability. When this Durability is depleted, the world barrier will disappear, and the Newbie World will be fully open to all!”

Wang Yi received the system notification and muttered, ”Foolish.” Then, with a single thought, he activated Starlight Rush again, shooting high into the sky and quickly breaking through the World Line.

Once there, Wang Yi’s vision broadened. A light flashed in his eyes as he saw them: countless Great Swords, each the size of a battleship!

Not far away, the Galaxy Battleship hovered on the World Line, heavily surrounded by those sword-like vessels.

Wang Yi also spotted the Bronze Ship, which was escorted by a large number of Battle Swords. Li Longyu stood upon its deck, the three Giant Apes at her back. Her face was the same, but her entire aura was different. A speck of gold light glowed between her brows, and her half-lidded eyes made her look cold and arrogant. She felt like a stranger to Wang Yi.

At this time, a large number of Battle Swords began to converge on Wang Yi. Atop each one stood a Cultivator, looking down at him with cold, contemptuous eyes.

They were all late-stage Golden Core Cultivators. In Wang Yi’s perception, they even had levels—most were around Level 90!

That level corresponded to a High-level King!

”Hmph!”

With a flick of his sleeve, Wang Yi’s power erupted. The might of his Divine Techniques transcended space—his Demon Suppression Spell combined with his Mountain and River Body Refining—unleashing a majestic force like a tidal wave that instantly scattered the Cultivators.

He took a single step, activated Starlight Rush, and appeared before the Galaxy Airship.

Wang Bushi and Wang Sanmei saw Wang Yi arrive and ran excitedly out of the Galaxy Airship.

”Hahahaha! You pack of Stargazers are finished! My father is here!”

”Father, let’s fight! The three of us can wipe them all out!”

Seeing Wang Yi, Wang Bushi and Wang Sanmei seemed to find their backbone. Their fighting spirit instantly surged, and they looked as if they feared nothing in the world.
