Chapter 586: Chapter 381: Strongest Royal Court

"Mingyu Divine Lord!"

Zandis looked up and saw Mingyu Divine Lord. His mind reeled in shock, and he shouted, "What is the meaning of this, My Lord? Are you trying to provoke a war between the Divine Countries?"

"Hmph!" Mingyu Divine Lord pointed a finger down and scolded, "What are you? How dare you speak to me like that!"

As she spoke, four small gold flags flew out from the void and immediately hovered in the four directions around the Star-shooting Tower. In the blink of an eye, a golden light curtain emerged, forming a perfect cube. Those four small flags were clearly Array Flags. By summoning them, Mingyu Divine Lord laid down a Four-direction Array. This Array had the power to lock down space itself, completely sealing the top of the Serpent Tower and trapping Zandis inside.

Doctor Destruction Zandis’s clothes instantly burst apart, revealing his Mecha-like body. Fire blasted from his feet and back as he launched himself into the air, roaring, "Mingyu Divine Lord! Li Mingyu! You actually want me dead! Hmph, if I make it out alive, I will definitely report this to my Lord. Just wait to endure the wrath of my master!"

"Arrogant fool! How dare you disrespect my Lord! Die!"

A sharp shout rang out. The one yelling was Yin Kui. He charged out from the Stargate, gripping a Cyan Halberd in both hands, and plunged straight into the Four-direction Array to attack.

In truth, Yin Kui had been the first to strike. The massive Dragon Claw that had reached out from the Star Sect earlier was his doing. With Mingyu Divine Lord present, he naturally wanted to show off his absolute best. Therefore, even though he was only Level 401, he still dared to attack the Level 499 Zandis.

However, he had failed to injure Zandis. Instead, he had been bombarded by artillery shells and suffered a slight disadvantage. Now, he wanted to continue proving himself by engaging Dr. Destruction in close combat with his Great Halberd.

The moment the two clashed, a fierce battle broke out. Yin Kui fought like the seasoned Military Generals of a battlefield, displaying extraordinary valor. Donning a new set of Scale Armor, every one of his moves was heavy and powerful, generating sharp waves of Qi Force. Dr. Destruction, on the other hand, relied on his Mecha Transformation. He seemed to carry an entire arsenal with him, unleashing a barrage of technological weapons.

Within the Four-direction Array, lightning flashed and thunder roared in an instant, accompanied by frequent, deafening explosions.

Liu Chenglin let out a startled "AHH!" Caught in the destructive aftermath of their clash, his body immediately turned into light and vanished. He only possessed a Mortal Physique, making his body exceedingly frail.

At this moment, Wang Yi, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, Li Bozhen, and Feng Qi also walked out of the Stargate.

Li Bozhen said, "Doctor Destruction Zandis is deeply notorious. His Primordial Magnetic Divine Country follows the path of technology. Zandis himself is a half-human, half-machine cyborg equipped with immense firepower."

Hearing this, Feng Qi nodded slightly and asked, "Does Venerable Jiaolong have any chance of winning a one-on-one fight against him?"

Li Bozhen chuckled. "Don’t worry, we have the Divine Lord holding the fort! Actually, My Lord has been displeased with the Primordial Magnetic Divine Country for a long time. Zandis is far too arrogant; running into her means he walked straight into the line of fire."

Mingyu flicked her sleeve and pointed a finger toward Yin Kui inside the Four-direction Array.

Something miraculous immediately occurred. Yin Kui let out a massive roar as twin horns rapidly sprouted from his forehead, and his level skyrocketed. In just two breaths, he had reached Level 499. His body grew significantly larger than before, and the Battle Armor encasing him seemed to transform into Golden Scale Armor, radiating a blinding gold light.

Mingyu Divine Lord then unleashed another technique. Stepping through the void, she tossed a small pagoda into the sky. It ascended, emitted a brilliant gold glow, and quickly formed a massive light curtain that enveloped the entirety of Purple Scale City.

"This place has been sealed off, and all teleportation is blocked. Go and clear out the trash. Spare no one from the Primordial Magnetic Divine Country or its affiliated factions!" Mingyu Divine Lord ordered, clearly addressing Wang Yi, Li Bozhen, and the others. She cast a specific glance at Wang Yi and added, "The world is cruel. If you want to live a long life, the first thing you must learn is to never show mercy! Remember, this is a war!"

"Yes!" Wang Yi, Li Bozhen, and Feng Qi bowed simultaneously in acknowledgment.

Down below in Purple Scale City, many Players had finally reacted. A large number of warships and fighter jets mobilized, and swarms of Players wearing combat Mechas surged forward, all intending to support Doctor Destruction Zandis.

"Let the slaughter begin!" Feng Qi muttered. As a Chaos Lord, she lacked direct combat skills, so she simply pulled out a Light Energy Gun and fired wildly into the crowd.

Li Bozhen, on the other hand, was a Level 399 Vacuum Sword God and a Great Cultivator at the Late-stage Tribulation Crossing. He opted directly for Sword Control. The Treasure Sword on his back flew from its sheath, piercing through enemies with lethal precision. Suddenly, his figure vanished, making him impossible to track. Yet, his murderous Magic Sword grew even sharper, silently claiming lives, slicing apart airships, and impaling fighter jets.

"Whatever. Since I made a promise to Mingyu Divine Lord, I might as well join the fun!" Wang Yi patted the Three-Eyed Golden Lion’s head. Understanding his intent, the beast immediately split, releasing thirty true bodies from within itself.

These were not mere clones, but thirty entirely real, Level 250 true bodies. Upon appearing, they lunged straight toward the incoming enemies clad in Steel Armor.

The Players from the Steel Royal Court rushing to provide backup were generally only around Level 100, with very few exceeding Level 150. Even with their technological weapons, they were powerless to stop the Level 250 Three-Eyed Golden Lions. The thirty beasts seemed entirely unleashed, going on a rampage. Whether utilizing the Star-devouring Technique or the Chaos Divine Radiance, they swiftly reaped countless lives.

Wang Yi also showed off a bit of his own prowess, casually tossing out some Samadhi True Fire. Those struck by the flames instantly began screaming in agony, wailing and rolling frantically on the ground as they lost all combat capability.

In truth, Wang Yi hadn’t initially planned on getting involved in a murder-and-robbery scheme, especially when the target was a Level 499 big shot of the Starry Sky.

But Mingyu Divine Lord had simply offered too much!

She had promised to give Wang Yi three Seven-Color Blind Boxes once the deed was done! Seven-Color Blind Boxes—and three of them at once, no less. How could Wang Yi possibly resist?

Soon, Purple Scale City was thrown into utter chaos. The Players of the Steel Royal Court suffered heavy casualties. A massive number of fighter jets were shot down, and countless buildings collapsed on the ground below. A city built for mortals simply couldn’t withstand the destructive shockwaves of a battle above the level of Celestial Gods. Houses, palaces, and high towers were leveled by the mere shockwaves of the clash.

Only the Star-shooting Tower remained astonishingly Solid, standing firm and unmoving!

Wang Yi grew curious about the Star-shooting Tower. After observing it for a moment, his Insight Divine Techniques allowed him to glean some of its information. He was stunned to discover that the Star-shooting Tower’s attack range reached a staggering ten million kilometers! It was truly a super-structure capable of bombarding entire planets.

Riding his Three-Eyed Golden Lion closer to inspect the tower, Wang Yi sighed with admiration. "If only this tower belonged to me!"

At that moment, Wang Yi suddenly noticed a chubby man appearing at the base of the Star-shooting Tower. The man was shouting loudly, directing a crowd of people to take refuge inside.

That chubby man was none other than Liu Chenglin.

He possessed a resurrection item. Having been crushed to death earlier by the shockwaves from Zandis and Yin Kui’s battle, he had now revived and returned. However, he wore a miserable, grief-stricken expression.

"It’s over! It’s all over! My Purple Scale City is doomed!" Liu Chenglin cursed relentlessly. "These must be Zandis’s enemies coming for revenge. Damn that Zandis! Damn the Steel Royal Court! Damn the Primordial Magnetic Divine Country! You brought your enemies here and dragged me down with you!"

Wang Yi viewed his identity information.

[Liu Chenglin: Chaos Lord, City Lord of Purple Scale City. Possesses the S-rank Lord Talent: Blind Box Wholesale!]

Wang Yi wondered, "Hmm, Blind Box Wholesale? What kind of Talent is this? And it’s S-rank. Could this guy be able to wholesale blind boxes directly from the system shop?" His mind stirred, instantly filled with intense curiosity regarding Liu Chenglin’s Talent.

But in just that brief moment, Liu Chenglin had already led the crowd into the Star-shooting Tower. The tower immediately lit up from the bottom to the top, as though it had just been activated.

Simultaneously, a thunderous BOOM erupted from the top of the Serpent Tower.

"Li Mingyu, you’ve gone too far!" Zandis’s roar quickly followed, booming as loud as thunder.

Wang Yi looked up. He didn’t know what method Zandis had used, but with another deafening BOOM, a powerful explosion detonated, and a blinding white light flared up within the Four-direction Array. The immense concussive force violently shook the four small flags. With a sharp CRACK, fractures appeared in the void-sealing light curtain. The Four-direction Array had actually been broken!

"Haha! Killing me won’t be that easy! Behold my Treasure!"

Zandis’s voice pierced through the lingering bright light. His body was battered and mangled, now missing a mechanical arm, yet he still managed to flick his wrist and throw an object forward.
