Strongest Lord by Opening Blind Boxes

Chapter 213 - 187: Moving the Mountain, Huaguo Mountain (Part 2)

At Qixia Mountain, inside the command tent of the Southern King’s rebel-suppression army, soldiers and generals were in total chaos.

There were battle-hardened old veterans, new recruits eager to earn merits, Military Advisors, Assistant Generals, Civil Servants, special envoys, logistics personnel, and also... Players!

The Southern King’s forces were strong and well-equipped, their military strength no less than King Dongsheng’s. This army, sent to quell the rebellion, numbered over a hundred thousand strong. It was an elite force, exceptionally outfitted and capable of fighting Ogres head-on.

And among this rebel-suppression army, there was no shortage of Players.

These Players were all Adventurers. Many among them had entered the World of Suffering and seen the "great movie."

The Indigenous People’s soldiers and generals were shocked by the changes at Qixia Mountain, not understanding the cause. But those who had seen the "great movie" recognized the Galaxy Airship and knew that the Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong had arrived.

When the Fire Dragon Vehicle had appeared earlier with the Great Saint clearing the path, they had already grown suspicious. Now, seeing the mountains crumble and the earth crack, they couldn’t help but wonder what the Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong intended for the battle at Qixia Mountain.

"Quick, go down and have the entire army retreat! We absolutely must not provoke the Great Saint!"

"Right! We still don’t know if the Great Saint is friend or foe. We can’t afford to provoke him!"

"Send a message to the King! Tell him the Great Saint has descended upon Qixia Mountain and to be extremely careful!"

"Forget about those Ogres! Retreat, retreat now!"

The Player generals shouted in alarm as they scurried about. Soon, the Commander-in-Chief also issued the order to retreat.

That Commander-in-Chief was not a Player, but an old general with silver hair at his temples. He was the Commander-in-Chief personally appointed by the Southern King, named Wu Shenji. Although he wasn’t well-known before, his leadership on this campaign had been flawless, his strategies god-like. He had already won the admiration of many of the Indigenous People’s soldiers.

’Great Sage Equal to Heaven Sun Wukong... Who could that be? If he truly possesses the power to shatter the earth and crumble mountains, we absolutely cannot make an enemy of him. When I return, I’ll have to ask Yuanhai about this!’

But at this moment, Wu Shenji was still in his tent, sipping tea. His expression was normal, showing not the slightest hint of panic.

Meanwhile, several miles away from the camp, a two-headed Ogre over three meters tall sat cross-legged in meditation on a hillside.

This Ogre had a powerful build and dark brown skin. The two heads on its shoulders were as large as bamboo hats, and each forehead sported a short horn—one Gold, the other silver.

He was the true commander of the remaining Ogre forces, a mutated Ogre hero named Zhe Family.

All four of the Ogre’s eyes, on both its heads, were staring at the trembling Qixia Mountain.

The golden-horned head spoke. "What kind of power is this?"

The silver-horned head replied, "The power of a devil, or the power of a Celestial God!"

"If we were to transcend, would we become devils or Celestial Gods?"

"We would become demons!"

"I have a question. If we get married, do we marry one wife or two? If we marry one, whose wife is she? And if I’m intimate with our wife, does that count as her cheating on you?"

"That’s not one question, that’s a whole series of questions!"

"I really want to get a wife!"

"Don’t. It’s giving me a headache!"

"In the future, when I’m getting intimate with our wife, I’m going to cover your eyes. No peeking! And no making a sound!"

"You’d better just knock me out then!"

"Good idea! If I knock you out, it won’t count as my wife cheating!"

"Then can I knock you out when I’m trying to think? You’re so annoying..."

The two heads went back and forth, their bickering gradually escalating into an argument.

Suddenly, they stopped arguing. All four eyes snapped toward Qixia Mountain.

In their line of sight, Qixia Mountain was gone. It had simply vanished!

At that same moment, Wang Yi was filled with joy. He had finally completed the Refinement of Qixia Mountain.

The entire Qixia Mountain had transformed into a speck of light and entered the space between his eyebrows, leaving behind a massive, crescent-shaped crater in the earth below.

Wang Yi glanced down and could see some Ogres and human soldiers at the edge of the crater. He laughed heartily and shouted, "I have taken this mountain! You may all carry on!"

Wang Yi then released his Galaxy Airship and sped off into the distance.

As for the battle between the Ogre troops and the Southern King’s rebel-suppression army, Wang Yi couldn’t be bothered to care.

On the way back to his territory, Wang Yi casually collected two small rivers, leaving him with 1.22 million Chaos Energy!

Upon returning to Eggshell Village, Wang Yi first found Jelena and said, "Daughter, quickly issue an announcement and evacuate the people! Your father has brought back a mountain. I’m going to reshape the heavens and the earth and envelop Eggshell Village with it!"

"What?"

Jelena was startled. After carefully asking Wang Yi about his plan, she didn’t dare to be careless. She dropped everything else and quickly gathered personnel to urgently evacuate the territory’s residents.

Wang Yi flew into the sky in his Galaxy Airship and activated [Building Translation]. First, he slightly adjusted the positions of the buildings in the territory to make room for Qixia Mountain’s placement.

Qixia Mountain was over a kilometer high, a truly massive landmark. Wang Yi planned to place it right next to Eggshell Village, with the village center nestled in its valley. Naturally, he first had to shift the buildings around to clear out the necessary space.

This was no small project like the construction of Eggshell Academy; the scale of the work was immense. For things like the Peach Blossom Forest, for which there was no room, Wang Yi could only store them temporarily in the underground territory.

Meanwhile, Jelena’s task of evacuating the populace was no small feat either. The residents in a vast area—including Eggshell Village, Liuhe Farm, the original Stone Village, as well as Giant Crab Camp and the region south of North Mountain—all had to be moved.

Governor Wadu directly sounded the alarm. It flew back and forth over the territory, broadcasting loudly: "Alert, alert! A great mountain will descend north of Eggshell Village! Everyone, please evacuate to the south immediately! Alert, alert! The mountain is about to fall! People in the forest and people in the Toilet House, get out quickly! Alert, alert! This is a code red emergency, evacuate immediately..."

Members of the Eastern Depot were also dispatched urgently, immediately shouting at any pedestrians they saw heading north.

The Civilian Militia, the Production Team, and the Western Depot members also quickly got to work.

And so, it was as if the entirety of Eggshell Village was being turned upside down. The villagers stopped their work and evacuated in a panic, creating a clamorous scene.

"Ah, the Peach Blossom Forest suddenly disappeared!"

"What about the Toilet House? Why did the Toilet House suddenly vanish? Is Fenqiu still inside?"

"Hurry, get back! I heard the boss brought back a mountain! If you’re too slow, you’ll be crushed underneath it!

"The boss is just too powerful!"

"Address him as Lord! At the last big meeting, the higher-ups said the boss is a Lord!"

"Lord?"

"Yes, yes! The Military Advisor just said it too! The boss is the Three Realms Lord!"

"Who’s the Military Advisor?"

"It’s Old Hu!"

"That old drunkard? Can you even believe a word he says...?"

The villagers chattered among themselves. While some were terrified, many more were filled with anticipation. They found open spaces and high ground, tilted their heads to the sky, and chatted idly with those around them, just waiting to witness their Lord display his Divine Techniques and reshape the world!

Wang Yi did not keep them waiting for long.

Seeing that the ground below was more or less cleared, and after receiving a message from Wadu that "everyone has been safely evacuated," Wang Yi delayed no further. With a thought, a speck of light flew out from between his eyebrows.

The speck of light shot high into the air. Then, with another thought from Wang Yi, it abruptly transformed into Qixia Mountain.

The entire Qixia Mountain hovered in the air, a towering and terrifying sight. Sunlight fell upon it, refracting off the Purple Light Stones at its peak and casting a violet glow across the sky, making it seem like a divine mountain!

"From this day forward, Qixia Mountain is renamed Huaguo Mountain! Take root in this territory, become part of the Huaguo Mountain ecosystem... Descend!"

Wang Yi shouted as he slowly pressed his palm downward. Under his control, Qixia Mountain also began to descend slowly.

BOOM! The base of the mountain was the first to land, colliding with North Mountain, causing earth to collapse and rock to shatter.

The great mountain continued its descent—slow, but unstoppable, kicking up clouds of dust and mist!

When the Mortals saw this, they were utterly terrified.

About five minutes later, the entire Qixia Mountain had settled firmly onto the ground.

Wang Yi exhausted a full breath of his Mountain and River True Qi to complete the Moving Mountains technique, causing the entire Qixia Mountain to bond with the earth, its ley lines connecting until it became one with the land.
