Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 408: Chapter 295: Divine Artifact Golden Cudgel, the Mad God Appears

”Senior, would you be willing to elaborate?”

Wang Yi hopped off the back of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, took out a Bronze Wine Vat, and tossed it to Li Xuanyu. ”Senior, you’re a Wine Sword Immortal. Would you care to taste this junior’s wine from the Mortal Realm?”

Li Xuanyu caught the wine vat. He frowned for a moment but then broke the seal, tilted his head back, and took a drink. His eyes immediately brightened. ”Excellent wine!”

The Bronze Wine Vat contained one of the three ancient wines produced by Wang Yi’s ancestral business, the Bronze Winery. Its name was Drunken Immortal Elder, and it was already 5,000 years old upon bottling!

”If you like it, Senior, I have plenty more!”

Wang Yi took out a few more Bronze Wine Vats.

Li Xuanyu took a few more large gulps of the five-thousand-year-old vintage, a hint of delight appearing on his face. ”I won’t hide it from you. I ran out of wine eight thousand years ago. When I bound myself here, I haven’t had a single drink since.”

”Senior, why did you bind yourself here?”

”To stay alive, and to grow stronger!”

”Binding yourself here can make you stronger?”

”Of course not. We’re waiting. Waiting for the revival of that great lord in the third spatial layer. When he awakens, we’ll be able to escape our bonds. We’ll also instantly grow stronger and return to our peak!”

”Who is that great lord?”

”Ha, kid, you’re asking too many questions!” Li Xuanyu rattled the Chains on his wrists. ”I can’t tell you much, and there’s no need for you to know! These are Spiritual Chains. There are certain things I’m unable to say. If I do, I’ll suffer a spiritual backlash!”

”In that case, I won’t ask any more questions.”

True to his word, Wang Yi asked no more questions and simply drank with Li Xuanyu.

A moment later, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion came to Wang Yi’s side. It opened its mouth and spat out a golden blind box.

”Hm? This is...”

Wang Yi immediately understood. ’This blind box must have been found by the other true bodies of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion while they were exploring the area connected by the Profound Celestial Stele. They must have swallowed it and stored it in their Inner World. Since all of its true bodies share one Inner World, the lion here can retrieve it.’

’This method of transporting items is quite convenient.’

Wang Yi put the golden blind box away, in no rush to open it. He then asked the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, ”Is the place you teleported to very dangerous?”

The Three-Eyed Golden Lion shook its head.

Wang Yi then stood up, cupped his hands to bid farewell to Li Xuanyu, mounted the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, and walked straight into the Profound Celestial Stele.

After his figure disappeared, Li Xuanyu sighed. ’Eight thousand years have passed, and I wonder how much longer I must wait to escape... Although these Explorers are weak, once they enter the third layer, they can affect our fate and decide our life and death. Of the fifty thousand fellow cultivators back then, I’m afraid fewer than three thousand remain now... I shouldn’t have told that little Player so much!’

He tilted his head back and drained the rest of the vat. Then this level 420 Wine Sword Immortal closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, and fell silent once more.

Meanwhile, Wang Yi had arrived inside a sealed, grand hall.

The hall was vast and looked like a warehouse. Inside, metal ores were piled into mountains, and there were also numerous Treasure Chests. The chests were arranged in neat rows, and many of their lids were already open.

And numerous Three-Eyed Golden Lions were scattered around—not a dozen or so, but hundreds!

Wang Yi also saw many defeated, collapsed Metal Giants on the ground.

Clearly, a fierce battle had just taken place here. The Metal Giants had only recently been defeated. They might have once been the guardians of this warehouse, but now they were nothing more than scrap metal.

With a wave of his hand, the pride of Three-Eyed Golden Lions scattered to the perimeter, standing guard to prevent any troublemakers from approaching.

’Let’s see what treasures are here!’

Wang Yi began to inspect the Treasure Chests on the ground. He found that many were empty, but most of them contained items.

A moment later, after looting the Treasure Chests, Wang Yi had obtained over 14,000 pieces of high-level ores and materials like Jade Stone, Luoshui Jade, and Fire Copper, as well as 4,000 High-Level Chaos Crystal Stones, two golden blind boxes, and two Red Light Blind Boxes!

Wang Yi then looked at the metal ore piled in the center of the hall and found that it was all [Ruyi Golden Steel].

[Ruyi Golden Steel: Produced on Kunmi Mountain, a high-level material. Possesses astonishing hardness and can be used for forging, Magical Treasure refinement, etc. Please explore for specific uses.]

’Looks like this Ruyi Golden Steel is an incredible material. I’ll store it in the warehouse for now...’

Wang Yi activated his Space Divine Techniques, intending to collect the piles of Ruyi Golden Steel. Suddenly, he received a system notification: ”Ding! A suitable Divine Artifact material has been detected. Add Ruyi Golden Steel to the Fantasy Divine Weapon Pool to upgrade the Golden Cudgel and increase its quality!”

”Hmm?”

Wang Yi felt a jolt of excitement.

He then recalled that he had once forged the Golden Cudgel in the Fantasy Divine Weapon Pool. It had been created out of thin air, requiring no materials. The forging was successful, but its quality was only Gold, which had been a huge disappointment. Afterward, he’d entered seclusion in the World of Suffering and hadn’t paid it any mind. The Golden Cudgel had been languishing in the Divine Weapon Pool inside his Ancestral Divine Hall ever since.

Wang Yi hadn’t expected it could be upgraded with real materials.

’In that case, let’s upgrade it!’

With a single thought, Wang Yi used his Space Divine Techniques to send a large quantity of Ruyi Golden Steel into the Bronze Divine Hall and deposit it into the Fantasy Divine Weapon Pool.

In the Divine Weapon Pool, the Ruyi Golden Steel was rapidly absorbed by the Ruyi Golden Cudgel. Its abilities and appearance quickly began to align with the version Wang Yi had imagined.

Just as the vast supply of Ruyi Golden Steel in the hall was nearly depleted, Wang Yi received another system notification: ”Ding! Your fantasy Divine Soldier, the Ruyi Golden Cudgel, has been successfully forged. This weapon is a Seven-Colored Divine Artifact, perfectly matching the one in your imagination. In its standard form, it weighs 13,500 jin. It can grow or shrink at will, with its weight changing accordingly. It is indestructible and possesses peerless might!”

”A Seven-Colored Divine Artifact!”

Wang Yi was ecstatic. With another thought, a brilliant light flashed from between his eyebrows, and a glittering golden rod flew out.

That was the Ruyi Golden Cudgel itself. Its name was engraved upon its surface, as were the words ”Stabilizing Needle.”

’I actually made Brother Monkey’s divine weapon? A true Divine Artifact! Ye Qitian and his friends grind that football game every day, and I think the Supreme Jersey and Super God Football they got from their Talents are only Red Light Quality...’

Overjoyed, Wang Yi picked up the 13,500-jin Golden Cudgel with one hand and swung it a few times. He could feel the power as it whistled through the air. It felt great.

”Bigger, bigger, bigger... Longer, longer, longer...”

Wang Yi tested the Ruyi Golden Cudgel’s transformative abilities and found them to be completely real and tangible.

’It’s really nice, but this Iron Rod doesn’t really suit my style. I’m still more comfortable using my Cyan Blade Sword...’

Wang Yi stored the Ruyi Golden Cudgel away, thinking he needed to find a suitable wielder for it. He then initiated the creation of a three-pointed double-edged blade in the Fantasy Divine Weapon Pool.

A moment later, Wang Yi finished clearing out the items in the warehouse hall and, feeling quite pleased with himself, began opening his blind boxes.

He now had a total of three golden blind boxes and two Red Light Blind Boxes. He started with the golden ones.

’Finally, another Skill Book!’

Wang Yi was overjoyed and decisively chose the[Universal Skill Book]with Enhance +8.

And at that very moment, tens of thousands of li from Kunmi Mountain, light flared beneath a giant Glazed Treasure Mountain. A crack appeared in the void, and from within that crack, a Jade Pendant slowly emerged.

That Jade Pendant was, of course, also a ”Profound Celestial Stele.” As it appeared, the passage to the third spatial layer of the Mad Secret Realm also opened.

But appearing along with it was a desiccated corpse wearing golden Battle Armor.

’The Mad God... it’s appeared!’

Not far away, Mingyu Divine Lord spoke softly, a serious expression on his face.

Meanwhile, on the peak of Kunmi Mountain, a spatial rift also appeared. From that rift, however, walked out a figure wearing a Five-Colored long dress.

That was, shockingly, also a desiccated corpse!

”The Mad God...”

Down in the pit, Li Xuanyu’s expression changed dramatically. He hurriedly squeezed his eyes shut and quickly bowed his head, as if he didn’t dare to look at the female corpse.
