Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 374: Chapter 278: Qi Xiaowa, Exotic Star Centipede (2)

Just as Wang Yi finished speaking, thunder rumbled across the sky. The sound was strange; the sky was perfectly clear, yet a deafening clap suddenly erupted without warning.

’This situation... could someone be attacking the World Line?’

Wang Yi narrowed his eyes and stopped his idle chat with Jelena and the others. With a thought, a river of stars formed beneath his feet, and he shot straight into the sky.

Soon, Wang Yi broke through the World Line. He gazed out into the distance and discovered a force, but it wasn’t an army of Cultivators—it was a swarm of Giant Beasts.

These Giant Beasts were shaped like centipedes, with rows of wings on their backs, slender legs, and six eyes on their heads. They were pitch-black, their carapaces like iron armor, and their bodies were all over five hundred meters long. They were Starry Giant Beasts: Exotic Star Centipedes!

The Exotic Star Centipedes had levels, all around level 120.

Wearing his Enhanced Sunglasses, Wang Yi could see extremely far. A quick scan revealed at least a hundred Exotic Star Centipedes wreaking havoc along the World Line. They were a formidable force, attacking with overwhelming power.

But at this moment, Wang Yi was not the only Player on the World Line!

Wang Yi also discovered a Cosmic Spaceship. The ship was crude, looking as if it were converted from an ordinary warship. Standing on its deck were Players—it was none other than the Southern King, Tong Yuanhai, and his group.

’The Players from the Southern Heaven Alliance are pretty capable. Huddling together for warmth, they actually managed to withstand the sixth void invasion. I wonder what’s going through their minds now that they’re seeing Exotic Star Centipedes attacking the World Line.’

Wang Yi muttered aloud. His vision was far-reaching, allowing him to see Tong Yuanhai and the others. They were currently trying to escape; the ship was turning around as if about to flee.

’These guys... I bet a single Exotic Star Centipede could wipe them all out!’

Wang Yi sighed to himself. He didn’t want to enter the Starry Sky just yet. If he wanted to maintain the current state of Typhon World, he couldn’t let the World Line be broken.

’These Exotic Star Centipedes are clearly being controlled. It seems a second World Defense War is unavoidable!’

Just as Wang Yi was thinking about returning to his territory to gather some troops, a Golden Lion Illusion suddenly lunged toward him.

”Zhen Yuan!” the Golden Lion Illusion’s voice boomed like thunder. ”Hand over Li Longyu, and we’ll let this go. Otherwise, your tiny little territory will be annihilated today!”

Wang Yi laughed out loud. He looked at the Golden Lion Illusion and said, ”So you’re the ones behind these Exotic Star Centipedes after all. What heinous crime did I commit to deserve you targeting me like this?”

”You haven’t committed any evil deeds. It’s just that the Ming King’s identity is special. Now that we know her reincarnated body is here, we must retrieve her for the Divine Country as soon as possible to prevent any accidents. In this vast Starry Sky, our Divine Country has many enemies. If they find out the Ming King has been reincarnated here and has even nurtured a Law, they will surely take action! I’m telling you this in the hopes that you will cooperate obediently!”

”When you act like this, it’s only natural you’d have so many enemies!”

Wang Yi’s expression turned cold. ”I may be a minor Player, but I respond to kindness, not force. I’m not afraid of your coercion. Let me make this clear to you today: Li Longyu is not the Ming King now. She’s under my protection, and she doesn’t want to go. You’d best not try to force her.”

”A minor Player with a big mouth. But the safety of the Ming King is a major affair for the Divine Country. A small-time Player like you can’t bear that responsibility! Hand over the Ming King, and I’ll see to it that you are no longer troubled in the future!”

”Beat me, and I’ll hand her over!”

Wang Yi took a deep breath. With a thought, CLANG, the Cyan Blade Sword unsheathed from his back. He gripped the sword in his right hand, activating Panwu’s Great Power Divine Techniques and the Commanding Mountains and Rivers Divine Techniques. Starlight appeared beneath his feet, and his fighting spirit soared.

The Golden Lion Illusion snorted. ”You little Player, why are you so arrogant? Since you insist, I’ll have to teach you a lesson!”

As it spoke, its form retreated, and at the same time, a five-hundred-meter-long Exotic Star Centipede dived toward Wang Yi.

Wang Yi wasted no more words. Treading on starlight, his figure flashed, and he met the Exotic Star Centipede head-on. In an instant, he was up close, and a single sword strike shattered its head carapace. Powerful energy blasted into its body, causing the five-hundred-meter-long Giant Beast to let out a bloodcurdling roar.

”Noisy!”

Wang Yi shouted, slashing again. Although he didn’t use the Heaven-Opening Law, his Panwu’s Great Power Divine Techniques empowered the strike. This slash was incomparably powerful, unleashing a wave of Sword Qi that instantly cut the Exotic Star Centipede in half at the waist.

But the Exotic Star Centipede’s Physique was powerful, and it wasn’t dead yet. The flesh of its two severed halves churned, as if each was about to grow a new head and tail to fight independently, and they continued to attack Wang Yi.

Wang Yi slashed again, unleashing countless Starlight Flying Swords, finally annihilating the Exotic Star Centipede completely!

Then, with a flicker of his figure, Wang Yi instantly conjured nine Monkey Kings with Celestial God Level combat power. At the same time, wind and clouds gathered, and layers of mist and clouds appeared in the Starry Sky.

Above the clouds and mist, Ten Thousand Celestial Soldiers appeared!

Wang Yi had once again used the highest level of his Illusionary Clone Divine Techniques. It cost a mere ten million Chaos Energy, a price he could easily afford.

”Kill!”

Wang Yi bellowed, and the stirring Cloud Palace Swift Tune began to play, raising the curtain on the battle.

In the distance, dozens of Exotic Star Centipedes were drawn in. They charged forward, only for some to be beaten back, some to be knocked off the World Line, and others to be drowned by countless Starlight Flying Swords...

This battle scene was witnessed by Tong Yuanhai and the others from afar. On the deck of their flying warship, the crowd of Players craned their necks to watch.

”Is that Sun Wukong?”

”Damn, what’s going on? Ten Thousand Celestial Soldiers fighting Starry Giant Beasts?”

”These Starry Giant Beasts are gnawing on the World Line! We have to kill them!”

”Sun Wukong is just too badass. I’d call him the strongest fighting force in Typhon World!”

”These Starry Sky Players are so nasty. If the World Line is breached and they invade, how are we supposed to play!”

”Thank goodness the Great Saint is holding them back!”

”Should we go help?”

”Better not. At our level, we’d just be cannon fodder. We’d probably just get in the way.”

The Players of the Southern Heaven Alliance chattered amongst themselves.

Meanwhile, even farther away in the Starry Sky, another Starry Sky Fleet was slowly approaching Typhon World.

The main vessels of this fleet were strange, pyramid-shaped spaceships. They were extremely fast, about a hundred meters tall, and flew in a neat formation.

Those Pyramid Spaceships were a specialty product of Feisha City in Valon World. They were a product of technology and had already entered mass production.

And this fleet, of course, was also from Feisha City.

Feisha City was the territory of Chief Manda. She possessed the S-Class World Secret Treasure, the Light of Technology. She had already used this Secret Treasure to unlock the manufacturing technology for the Super Terminator; the technology for the Pyramid Flying Device was the second one she unlocked from it.

Right now, Chief Manda, Ruan Saint, Zhang Lebao, and others were inside a Pyramid Battleship. Their trip was no casual stroll; they had two objectives. The first was to find and capture Starry Giant Beasts.

The second objective was to head to Typhon World and get revenge on ”Yang Jian”!

In fact, Typhon World and Valon World were neighbors, so the distance between them wasn’t particularly great.

At this moment, Chief Manda stared into the void, silently thinking, ’These Pyramid Flying Devices are pretty good. Once we mass-produce them, we’ll be able to roam the Starry Sky. After I capture and tame some Starry Giant Beasts to create an army, I’ll be able to make a name for myself out here. I might even have a shot at making it onto the territory leaderboard!’

Just then, a Player cried out, ”Starry Giant Beasts spotted! And not just one—a lot of them!”

Chief Manda was overjoyed to hear this and hurriedly said, ”Where? Quick, quick, quick, charge over there! If we capture the Starry Giant Beasts, we’ll have a celebratory feast tonight!”

But the Player frowned again. He was in charge of piloting the vessel and overseeing all of its monitoring instruments and scanning devices. He said in a low voice, ”Detecting intense combat fluctuations ahead. There’s someone... someone...”

”Someone what?”

”Someone is slaughtering the Starry Giant Beasts!”

”What? Who’s that powerful? Can you get a reading on them?”

”I have a reading. The Starry Giant Beasts are called Exotic Star Centipedes, level 120, with Celestial God Level combat power! The slaughterer is named Zhen Yuan... uh, Immortal Zhenyuan, Ancestor of Earth Immortals!”

”What?”

Everyone was shocked to hear this, but Chief Manda ordered, ”Lock onto the combat coordinates! Fleet, move us in!”
