Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

"DING! You have used [Lord Skill Book: Earth+8]. Congratulations, you have acquired the Lord Skill [Earth]!"

"DING! The [Earth] skill can be used to fertilize land, drawing its name from the concept of recuperation. When cast, the skill allows the land to rest for a year, rapidly accumulating a year’s worth of fertility. Now enhancing... calculating..."

"DING! The [Earth] skill has been Enhanced to [Ten-Year-Old Earth]. A single cast of the skill allows the land to accumulate ten years’ worth of fertility..."

"DING! [Ten-Year-Old Earth] has been Enhanced to [Hundred-Year-Old Xi Soil], [Thousand-Year-Old Earth], [Ten Thousand Year-Old Earth], [Earth Revival], [Earthly Miracle], [Fertile Soil Divine Authority], and [Unparalleled Earth]!"

"DING! Using [Unparalleled Earth] will grant the land one hundred million years of fertility and give it the ability to grow and expand infinitely on its own. Please explore the specifics for yourself."

"DING! Influenced by the Supreme Divine Body, your [Unparalleled Earth] skill has transformed into Thick Earth Divine Techniques. Congratulations, you have acquired the Divine Power Body King Houtu!"

Wang Yi listened to the system notifications while quickly checking his own status, his mind bursting with inspiration.

’Unparalleled Earth... with a single thought, I can build a Fertile Plateau and establish an indestructible foundation...’

Wang Yi suddenly felt his soul ascend, and a drastic change occurred within his world of consciousness.

That world of consciousness—or soul world, or Spiritual World—existed beyond the division of real and illusory. It had first been opened up by the Ancestral Divine Hall. Outside the towering and Solid Divine Hall was nothing but a thick, viscous fog of chaos.

But now, solid ground slowly appeared beneath the Ancestral Divine Hall, formed by the Thick Earth Divine Techniques.

With its appearance, the Bronze Divine Hall seemed to put down roots, as if it now had a source of sustenance and could absorb nutrients. The various facilities within, like the Divine Weapon Pool, began to radiate light and operate more smoothly.

Among them, the Divine Soul Pool appeared to become the core, slowly transforming into the shape of a furnace. The Illusionary Gold Technique manifested as inscriptions branded onto its exterior, causing "Illusory Gold" to be continuously born within the furnace.

Illusory Gold was Gold condensed from the soul, representing Wang Yi’s thoughts and the foundation of his soul. It was as ethereal as mist and was absorbed by the Ancestral Divine Hall, causing the Divine Hall to constantly renew and grow stronger.

Outside the Ancestral Divine Hall, water vapor rose, freezing in midair and transforming into one Longsword after another. The Longswords gathered, coalescing into a star of ice crystals, like a moon, that circled the Divine Hall as if to guard it.

Suddenly, grass and flowering trees appeared around the Divine Hall. A gentle breeze arrived, circling the Divine Hall. As the wind blew, the flowers opened; as it passed, they closed, repeating in an endless cycle.

Suddenly, flames flew out from the Divine Hall, condensing into Fire Crystals. The Fire Crystals flew into the void and gathered into a star, like a blazing sun, which also began to orbit the Divine Hall.

’The Five Elements are complete. I think I’ve truly gained Divine Techniques...’

A strange understanding bloomed in Wang Yi’s mind, bringing with it a sense of completion. He withdrew from his world of consciousness and looked at his palm, where a five-colored ring-shaped mark was glowing faintly.

"The Five Elements are complete! Rise, Five Elements Mountain! Great Five Elements Divine Seal!"

Wang Yi let out a soft cry. He raised his palm, and a Five-Colored Mountain materialized out of thin air, floating in the sky, towering and terrifying.

This Five-Colored Mountain was not the Five Elements Mountain that Wang Yi had refined. Instead, it was a manifestation of the Great Five Elements Divine Seal, condensed from [Ice Soul Divine Monarch], [Samadhi True Fire], [Sanmei Divine Wind], [Thick Earth Divine Techniques], and [Stone to Gold].

It was a creation manifested by Wang Yi from nothing, imbued with the power of Divine Techniques. It stood a thousand meters tall, shimmering with the five colors of red, gold, green, black, and white. It also resembled a Great Seal, poised to press down at any moment.

At that moment, Da Hai City unlocked another technological weapon. It was a three-hundred-meter-tall mechanical Monster named Mechanical Gadeken. It had a high level of 466 and was forged from an Abyss Gazer. Shaped like a Giant Dragon with wings on its back, its eyes shot out electrical beams as it sped toward Wang Yi’s position.

A Monkey King went to block it, but it was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot—a completely futile effort. It shattered the moment Mechanical Gadeken touched it.

Wang Yi’s gaze locked onto Mechanical Gadeken. He flipped his palm, and the Five-Colored Mountain in the sky came crashing down. At the same time, Mechanical Gadeken seemed to be frozen in the void, wrapped in Chains formed by the Six-Character Golden Talisman: "Om Mani Padme Hum."

Mechanical Gadeken roared but remained frozen in place, taking the full, thunderous impact of the Five Elements Mountain.

The next moment, Mechanical Gadeken and the Five Elements Mountain vanished into thin air. A black vortex flashed in the sky for an instant before disappearing.

Meanwhile, inside Wang Yi’s Battle Sacred Land Eco Battlefield, a Five Elements Mountain crashed to the ground, shaking the entire area.

Beneath that Five Elements Mountain, a mechanical Giant Beast was roaring and bellowing—it was none other than Mechanical Gadeken!

Wang Yi had used not only the Great Five Elements Divine Seal, but also the Breaking Sky Fist and the Demon Suppression Spell, to suppress Mechanical Gadeken and knock it down into the Eco Battlefield in one fell swoop.

Even the level-600 Emperor Tathagata couldn’t perceive the profound intricacies of the technique. The spectators in the sky all had their own theories, but most assumed Wang Yi had used some kind of powerful system item. Although surprised, they weren’t exactly shocked.

Atop the Five Elements Mountain, Wang Yi glanced at the spectators in the sky and thought to himself, ’Using the Great Five Elements Divine Seal for the Suppression of a level-466 Mechanical Puppet was surprisingly easy. Still, testing my abilities like this under so many watchful eyes... I really got carried away. It’s better to keep a low profile...’

Though pleased with himself, Wang Yi immediately began to reflect. He then summoned nine more Monkey Kings and, as if he had done nothing at all, unhurriedly went back to opening blind boxes as though it were his job.

Meanwhile, in Da Hai City, the high-level managers of the Waga Royal Court all wore grim expressions, most of them frowning. The control room was utterly silent; no one spoke.

After a long while, the highest-ranking among them, the Crown Prince, finally sighed, "I can’t believe that even a legendary Super Weapon like Mechanical Gadeken couldn’t take that mountain peak. Just how strong is that Taishang?"
