Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 254 - 217: Slaying a Golden Core, Space Swimming

"A Treasure Fan!"

Wang Yi was overjoyed. ’I’ve gotten another Super Weapon, and it might even be strategic-grade.’

’This Palm Leaf Fan can work well with my Bubble Gun.’

As Wang Yi held the Palm Leaf Fan, wondering how he could test its power, three figures suddenly rushed over from behind: the Golden Core Cultivator Changqingzi, Wei Shenming, and Bai Xianyi.

Changqingzi casually glanced at Wang Yi’s group, seemingly paying them no mind. He started to speak with Wei Shenming and Bai Xianyi, but then he froze, his head snapping back. His gaze locked onto Wang Yi, then shifted to Li Longyu, then back to Wang Yi, then to Li Longyu again...

His eyes darted back and forth before he pinched his fingers together as if making a calculation. He suddenly looked at Wang Yi and demanded, "You... you... you! Who are you? Have you been to Mengbai Island?"

Wang Yi, who possessed the Eye of Insight, could see Changqingzi’s basic information and was quite surprised himself.

’He’s a special plot character, and a Golden Core Cultivator at that!’

’That should count as a high-level Cultivator, right?’

’We’re not from the same Cultivation system, so I don’t know what his combat power is like. But I’d guess he’s probably stronger than the martial artist, Martial Saint Fengyu Cultivator...’

But Wang Yi was unafraid. Facing Changqingzi’s questioning, he said in a low voice, "I have. So what?"

"I have a dual cultivation partner on Mengbai Island. By my calculations, it should be time for her to awaken. Just now, I detected a trace of a hostile aura on you, one that originates from my partner. Answer me honestly, did you harm her?"

As he spoke, Changqingzi continued to pinch his fingers, calculating. Suddenly, his expression changed drastically, and he roared, "You insolent rogue! You killed my partner!"

"You can even figure that out?"

Wang Yi’s heart tightened, and he discreetly moved to shield Li Longyu behind him.

’Of course, the old man is talking about Shen Xingnan.’

’And I already double-killed Shen Xingnan!’

’Looks like a fight is unavoidable!’ Wang Yi readily admitted, "Your partner was possessed by an Alien. I killed her. What are you going to do about it?"

"You scoundrel!" Changqingzi pointed at Li Longyu and roared, "Hand her over to me, and I’ll spare your life!"

"Huh?" Li Longyu pointed to herself. "What does this have to do with me?"

"Girl, you have an extraordinary Physique. Although you’ve already lost your Primordial Yin and a bit of Innate True Qi, you’re still excellent material for dual cultivation. Marry me as my concubine, and I will guide you in Cultivation. I can even let them live!"

Hearing this, Wang Yi burst out laughing. "I think you’re the one who’s courting death!"

At that moment, a horde of zombies swarmed out of the ruins. Some carried iron gates, some held newspapers, and others wore iron buckets on their heads. They clearly hated anything that entered their territory, letting out low roars as they charged toward Wang Yi’s group.

Wang Yi waved the Palm Leaf Fan, unleashing a level-ten gale. In an instant, sand and stones flew through the air. The zombies were swiftly blown away, and the powerful wind even tore apart the buildings behind them.

"Everyone, on my command! Hunt down the zombies and search for Secret Treasures!"

Wang Yi stepped down from the Bronze War Chariot to face Changqingzi and his two companions. "I’ll hold them off!" he declared in a deep voice.

"Yes, sir!"

His people obeyed. Aside from Hai Zhongxian, who stayed to protect Li Longyu, the others quickly moved forward to engage the various zombies emerging from the ruins.

Changqingzi laughed out loud. "Ignorant brat, you dare to contend with me? Behold my Magical Treasure!"

As he spoke, Changqingzi made his move. With a flick of his wide sleeve, a small bell flew from his cuff. It grew larger as it flew through the air, transforming into a giant bell in the blink of an eye. Its mouth blazing with fire, it descended toward Wang Yi, aiming to trap him.

Wang Yi snorted coldly. With a flicker, his form split into ten Monkey Kings. Four of them flew into the sky to strike the golden bell with their staves, while another five charged toward Changqingzi.

Changqingzi retreated a step. With a flick of his sleeve, he raised a Spiritual Artifact Shield in front of himself. Then he spat out five Flying Swords. The five swords darted about like flying Spiritual Snakes, shooting toward five of the Monkey Kings. They were knocked away by the Great Saints’ Golden Cudgels, only to turn in mid-air and continue their attack.

"You two, attack now!"

Changqingzi bellowed, this time speaking to Wei Shenming and Bai Xianyi.

The two Players exchanged a look, then also sent out Flying Swords, charging toward Wang Yi.

Bai Xianyi even called out to Wang Yi, "Great Saint, I never imagined we’d meet again like this. Our allegiances are different, so we have no choice but to offend you!"

"As if you’re worthy!"

Facing the charging Wei Shenming and Bai Xianyi, Wang Yi flicked his Palm Leaf Fan. A level-twelve hurricane shot out, instantly sending the two of them spinning backward, out of the Chaos City region and into the void.

At that same moment, with a loud CLANG, the giant flame bell in the sky was smashed to pieces by the four Monkey Kings.

Changqingzi immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and roared, "You scoundrel! How dare you destroy my Magical Treasure!"

The words had barely left his mouth when he spat out five more mouthfuls of blood in succession. The five Flying Swords he had released had also been shattered by the other five Monkey Kings.

The next moment, Changqingzi was surrounded by nine Monkey Kings.

He swung his sleeve, his Mana coalescing into a Flame Divine Dragon that coiled around his body. "What manner of fiend are you?!" he shouted. "Face my Heaven and Earth Demon Transformation Hand!"

As he spoke, giant golden Hand Seals, seemingly formed from molten Gold, appeared in the void and pressed down on the Monkey Kings.

The Great Saints swung their staves, striking the massive Hand Seals with a series of CLANGS and shattering them one after another.

Gaining a moment of respite, Changqingzi pointed at Wang Yi and yelled, "Go!"

The Flame Divine Dragon coiling around him shot toward Wang Yi, but it was intercepted and shattered halfway there by two of the Monkey Kings.

"What a monster! To think you can even withstand the Heaven and Earth Demon Transformation Hand! In that case, I’ll let you witness my Sea Covering Sword, which I haven’t used in a hundred years! One sword to cover the seas... Rise! Giant Sword Technique... Fall!"
