Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 521: Chapter 350: Core Gu, Chess Soul

"How can this be?"

Luo Feng’s heart was in turmoil. He stared at Wang Yi, his face flushing red as he struggled for words, before finally spitting out, "You... you’re a monster!"

"Then let those be your last words!"

Wang Yi had no intention of toying with Luo Feng any longer. He drew the Cyan Blade Sword, executed his Infinite Swordsmanship, and forced Luo Feng back with a relentless series of slashes.

In Wang Yi’s hand, the Cyan Blade Sword seemed weightless. In reality, the blade alone weighed a staggering 121,500 jin. Swung with the force of his Panwu’s Great Power Divine Techniques, its kinetic energy and might were so immense that a single strike hitting the ground could cause a small earthquake.

Luo Feng summoned a Round Shield to defend himself. The shield was clearly no ordinary object, as it wasn’t shattered by the Cyan Blade Sword. However, the immense force of the blow still broke his arm, sending a surge of blood rushing up his throat.

As the saying goes, brute force overcomes all tricks. Wang Yi simply pressed his attack, and despite Luo Feng’s strange ritualistic methods, he had no chance to use them.

Wang Yi then executed an upward flicking strike. CLANG! Accompanied by a Clear Sword Sound, Luo Feng’s Round Shield was sent flying into the air. With another slash, Wang Yi severed Luo Feng’s right arm.

"AHH!"

Luo Feng let out a miserable scream. His previous arrogance was completely gone, replaced by a face full of terror. He cried out, "Wait, I was wrong before! I apologize! Please, spare my life!"

Wang Yi didn’t pause. He severed Luo Feng’s left arm as well, shouting, "A little late for regrets! You brought all of this upon yourself!"

"I’m the Grand Inspector of the Miracle Divine Country! The Gu Demon King of the Demon Realm Royal Court is my cousin! Killing me will only bring you endless trouble. We should bury the hatchet. You want the Yellow Springs Gu House, don’t you? It’s not bound to me yet. I can give it to you—"

Luo Feng’s words came to an abrupt halt.

Wang Yi’s Cyan Blade Sword had sliced across his neck, lopping off his head.

"The merciless take lives, and killers show no mercy! Reflect on your actions as a Chess Soul!"

Wang Yi put away his Cyan Blade Sword. With a single thought, the Qiankun Universe Blade, which had been embedded in the summit of one of the Five-Colored Mountains, flew back to him. Then, the eight Five-Colored Mountains slowly vanished.

Within the Chessboard Battlefield, the strange landscape of mountains and rivers that Wang Yi had created disappeared. Luo Feng’s corpse, however, dissolved into a ray of light and flew to the spectator stands outside the battlefield.

His soul had been captured by the Talent Chessboard and turned into a Chess Soul. His face was ashen, and he remained silent.

"Ding! The battle has ended. Congratulations on capturing a Level 598 Chess Soul."

"Ding! Alert: Your current rank is too low to subjugate a Level 598 chess piece. Please continue to battle and raise your chess master rank as soon as possible."

"Ding! Please clean up the battlefield and collect your spoils of war as soon as possible. The Chessboard Battlefield will close in a maximum of thirty minutes. Any uncollected items will be lost to the turbulence of spacetime."

Wang Yi received the system prompts, feeling pleased. He wasn’t in a hurry to study the Chess Soul; first, he went to pick up the items Luo Feng had dropped.

The Master of the Underworld had dropped a total of three items. One of them was the Round Shield he had just used to block the Cyan Blade Sword.

This shield was one meter in diameter and grayish-black in color. After picking it up, Wang Yi discovered its name was [Thick Virtue]. It was a Seven-Colored Divine Artifact and was incredibly solid.

The second item was a Crystal Card. There was nothing particularly special about it, other than being redeemable for one hundred million Star Yuan.

As for the third item, it was none other than the Yellow Springs Gu House.

The Yellow Springs Gu House resembled a turtle shell. As Wang Yi held it in his hands and examined it up close, its description appeared before his eyes.

Wang Yi carefully examined this super Treasure, which the Cultivation Alliance had specifically requested and was valued at one hundred billion Star Yuan, sighing in amazement.

This Treasure was indeed extremely powerful.

To make it work, one first had to release the Gu House.

In Wang Yi’s view, this Gu House was a Gu Breeding Pool with its own independent ecosystem. It contained a total of 108 Gu Insects, with three Core Gu named [Reincarnation Cocoon], [Heaven-Reaching Gu], and [Yellow Springs Insect].

The so-called "save" and "load" functions were supported by these three Core Gu working together.

In practice, "loading a save" was equivalent to resurrection. The Yellow Springs Gu House acted as the respawn point. The 108 Gu Insects would work in unison to recreate the Player’s body, thus achieving the "load" function.

However, there were also many restrictions on using the Yellow Springs Gu House to endlessly reload a save.

First, the Gu Insects in the Yellow Springs Gu House also have levels. If a Player’s level was higher than any of the three Core Gu, then they could not save their state. Currently, all three Core Gu were at Level 150.

In other words, for Players above Level 150, the Yellow Springs Gu House’s save and load functions were useless.

This was a great disappointment to Wang Yi.

Second, every time a Player loaded a save, it required all 108 Gu Insects in the Gu House to work together to recreate their body. This process consumed energy and took time. Furthermore, since the Gu Insects were living creatures, they couldn’t work indefinitely.

Besides the save and load functions, the Yellow Springs Gu Object could also serve as a sanctuary. Additionally, it had functions for healing, Body Refinement, and producing Netherworld Water.

When used as a sanctuary, the Gu House would seal itself from the outside. Its defenses were extremely powerful and difficult to breach, and it could also escape into a void known as the "Yellow Springs World."

If used for healing, some or all of the 108 Gu Insects would work to easily bring the dead back to life and grow flesh on bones. Regrowing a severed limb was a trivial matter. It could be said that as long as one wasn’t completely and utterly dead, they could be saved within the Yellow Springs Gu House.

As for its Body Refinement function, the 108 Gu Insects inside the Gu House could produce a strange gas. This gas helped strengthen one’s physique, so merely breathing inside the Gu House was a form of Body Refinement!

Finally, regarding the function of producing Netherworld Water, this Netherworld Water was a special material. It required the three Core Gu to work in unison, with the remaining 105 Gu Insects providing support, in order to be created.
