The Blind Box in My Mind

Dry Witch Universe Master had been resurrected, and Lian Luo no longer had any desire to keep hanging around in Chaos City.

After all, at his current level, breaking through wasn't something he could accomplish in a short time. Staying in Chaos City any longer held no meaning—he might as well follow his teacher to Ganwu Universe Country early and scout the territory.

He pondered how to smoothly latch onto City Lord Luo's thigh in the future!

The Initial Universe's Chaos City and the original Universe's Virtual Universe Company headquarters frequently had spaceships traveling back and forth through the Universe Channel. Given Dry Witch Universe Master's status within the Virtual Universe Company, the company had arranged a dedicated ship to see them off.

Whoosh!

Lian Luo followed behind Dry Witch Universe Master, flying up to the sky above Chaos City, where a massive disc-shaped spaceship was parked.

"Great Dry Witch Universe Master, everything is ready!" A purple-robed Immortal God stood at the cabin door, bowing respectfully as he saw Dry Witch Universe Master.

"Mm!" Dry Witch Universe Master nodded, then strode directly into the cabin. Lian Luo followed.

"Let's go."

Dry Witch Universe Master gave a faint command.

Clang!

The cabin door sealed shut. "Rumble~~~" The spaceship began to move, heading deep into the Chaos energy flow.

Original Universe, Virtual Universe Company headquarters.

This was a vast, boundless continent, even larger than the homeland continent of the Golden Horn Race that had appeared in the original story. Here lay the Virtual Universe Company headquarters—the main base!

"Rumble~~" At the core of the headquarters continent, two towering gates slid open automatically, revealing a dazzling passage.

This was the Universe Channel!

The passage connecting the 'Original Universe' and the 'Initial Universe.' A spaceship slowly emerged, then accelerated... After flying for several minutes, it finally landed at a transit hub.

Clang! The cabin door opened.

"Great Dry Witch Universe Master, please!" The purple-robed Immortal was exceptionally reverent.

It wasn't surprising—Dry Witch Universe Master was the master of a high-level universe country. In terms of status and nobility, he ranked within the top 2,000 of the entire human race.

As for Dry Witch Universe Master becoming the number one debtor, they had no idea.

"Let's go, Lian Luo!" Dry Witch Universe Master turned to call his disciple, only to see Lian Luo standing there dumbly, as if... spacing out?

He frowned slightly, but just then, Lian Luo finally snapped out of it and calmly walked out of the spaceship's cabin door.

Meanwhile, his mind was filled with shock.

Because just now, as their ship left the Initial Universe and entered the Original Universe, something strange had suddenly appeared in his mind.

It was a pure white treasure chest... or rather, a Blind Box!

Keeping pace with Dry Witch Universe Master as they exited the passage, Lian Luo studied the Blind Box that had suddenly materialized in his mind.

His consciousness lingered on the Blind Box, and soon he read its description.

This Blind Box could be opened once he completed the corresponding task, granting him the reward inside. The rewards were varied—bloodlines, supreme treasures, secret techniques, and other precious items, all available.

Lian Luo's consciousness shifted to the task: Kill 100 Immortal Gods / 10 Marquis Immortals / 1 King-level Immortal!

"Damn! I have to kill 100 Immortal Gods just to open this Blind Box!" Lian Luo clicked his tongue in amazement. "Or kill 10 Marquis Immortals? One King-level?"

He immediately dismissed the latter two options from his mind. He himself was a Marquis Immortal and knew full well how hard it was to kill one. Marquis Immortals all had undying bodies—normally, a King-level Immortal had to burn divine power to grind them down.

If he were in his fully equipped state before death, with a Heavy Treasure to assist, he might try to kill a Marquis Immortal.

But in his current bare-bones state, without even a Heavy Treasure, killing a Marquis was basically impossible!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Dry Witch Universe Master led Lian Luo through several consecutive teleportations, finally leaving the Virtual Universe Company headquarters by thousands of light-years. In a desolate stretch of starry space, he stopped.

"Lian Luo, we've now left the Virtual Universe Company headquarters. What are your plans?" Dry Witch Universe Master looked at Lian Luo, a faint smile on his face.

Over endless ages, many of the disciples he had taken had become King-level or Marquis Immortals, but Lian Luo was his final disciple. After Lian Luo, he stopped taking any more.

So he cherished Lian Luo deeply, not only spending a fortune to exchange the first three layers of the "Star Prison Demonic Codex" for him but also granting him a Heavy Treasure Divine Sword when Lian Luo became an Immortal.

He might be down on his luck now, but before, he had treated Lian Luo quite well.

Hearing Dry Witch Universe Master's words, Lian Luo hesitated. His original plan was naturally to go to Ganwu Universe Country and wait to latch onto City Lord Luo's thigh. But now, the Blind Box that had appeared in his mind was scratching at his heart like a cat's claw, making him itch with curiosity, eager to open it and see what was inside.

"Forget it, I'll stick with my teacher for now. Whether it's heading to the Outer Domain Battlefield or a Cosmic Secret Realm to kill those alien Immortals, having my teacher's help will save me a lot of detours!" Lian Luo hadn't forgotten his original intention of squeezing gold coins out of Dry Witch Universe Master.

With that thought, he smiled bitterly and said, "Teacher, I'll go with you to Ganwu Universe Country! I've just been resurrected once, so I need to prepare more before heading to the Outer Domain Battlefield to train!"

"Good! After your death, your clan was settled by me in Ganwu Universe Country. You can visit them this time!" Dry Witch Universe Master nodded with a smile. "Now, I'll perform the Divine Kingdom Teleportation!"

Dressed in a splendid starry robe, Dry Witch Universe Master extended his arms slightly. A blinding radiance blazed from his body, instantly spreading outward, enveloping both him and Lian Luo.

"My teacher's Divine Kingdom!" Lian Luo spotted a fiery red temple deep within the dazzling light.

When Dry Witch Universe Master had fallen, his Divine Kingdom naturally became ruined and lifeless. But after Lord of Chaos City resurrected him, the Divine Kingdom had regained its vitality, coming back to life.

Whoosh!

Through this Divine Kingdom passage, Dry Witch Universe Master and Lian Luo were instantly pulled into the kingdom.

Divine Kingdom Teleportation was somewhat akin to ultra-long-distance instantaneous movement! However, this kind of instantaneous movement was not the result of comprehending the universe's laws and understanding the Space Law. Instead, it was a special ability inherent to the 'Divine Kingdom' itself—a power it naturally possessed from the moment of its birth.

After arriving in the Divine Kingdom, the Dry Witch Universe Master did not pause for even a moment, directly initiating another Divine Kingdom Teleportation. This time, his destination was a desolate star system somewhere within the Ganwu Universe Country.

As the ruler of the Ganwu Universe Country, the Dry Witch Universe Master had placed his own tokens in many locations throughout the Ganwu Universe Country. Teleporting directly back from the Virtual Universe Company headquarters this way saved him a great deal of time.
