The Core of the Version 1.2 Development Plan!

Yang Shan suddenly realized.

Mu Zhan!

He remembered! The direct descendant of the Mu Family was a wood-attribute cultivator, but his temper was even more explosive than that of Fire Attribute cultivator, and he would start fighting at the slightest disagreement.

He's a clown who doesn't appear many times in the original work, but almost every time he does, he gets slapped in the face.

The reason Mu Zhan provoked Xiao Yan in the original novel was because Xiao Yan and Ya Fei were close.

After all, Mu Zhan once declared in Gama Holy City, "Whoever dares to touch Ya Fei, I will kill them!" So it's easy to explain why Mu Zhan is here now.

It would have been better if Ya Fei hadn't spoken, because the moment she did, she was protecting Yang Shan, which immediately ignited Mu Zhan's bad temper.

In the previous game, Mu Zhan basically acted as a protector of the beauties. Whenever a player developed even a little bit of affection for Ya Fei, they would be targeted by Mu Zhan.

At the beginning, the players were at a low level and were bullied badly.

Later, when the Dou Ling stage arrived, Mu Zhan's leveling speed slowed down. After being surpassed by other players, Mu Zhan frequently received challenge invitations. In the end, if the head of the Mu Family hadn't gotten anxious and urgently sent Mu Zhan to the border for training, this hot-tempered clown would probably have been beaten into a level 10 cripple by the players!

Yang Shan never expected that the special storyline of "protector of flowers" would be triggered so soon after he arrived in Gama Holy City!

Mu Zhan's eyes blazed with fury as his gaze swept back and forth between Yang Shan and Ya Fei.

These two are way too close together.

At this distance, Ya Fei could easily reach out and hook her arm around Yang Shan's! "I've said it before, anyone who dares touch Ya Fei, I'll kill them!"

Putting aside everything else, Mu Zhan is at least someone who dares to speak his mind and act on his convictions.

Of course, being bold in saying and doing is different from being able to keep one's word.

The fist, enveloped in Wood Attribute Dou Qi, hurtled towards Yang Shan with a whooshing sound.

Mu Zhan didn't use any Dou Technique in this punch.

It relies solely on physical strength and Dou Qi to inflict damage.

It seems Mu Zhan does have some brains; killing someone in front of so many important figures would be difficult to explain.

But when faced with Mu Zhan's fist, Yang Shan simply extended his hand casually.

Release your Dou Qi!

The lightning, tinged with purple light, instantly shattered Mu Zhan's Dou Qi.

Feeling as if his fist was hitting a city wall but couldn't penetrate even an inch, Mu Zhan was stunned:

"This"

Yang Shan said calmly, "Stop fooling around."

Having obtained the Ape King Violet Lightning, Yang Shan was now eager to summon the Hoof Shadow directly within the Gama Holy City and rush to the hidden place he was about to visit.

Yang Shan had absolutely no interest in petty squabbles or unwarranted fights over jealousy.

But upon hearing Yang Shan utter those two words, Mu Zhan completely abandoned his rationality.

What do you mean by "stop fooling around"?

Should we treat him like a child?

"I'm not only going to cause trouble today, I'm going to cripple you!"

Just as Mu Zhan finished uttering those harsh words, Yang Shan shook off Mu Zhan's hand with such force that Mu Zhan lost his balance.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yang Shan jumped up and kicked.

Mu Zhan realized what was happening and was about to use his Dou Qi Armor.

However, purple lightning was surging around his body, and his Dou Qi was unable to take shape!

As Fifth-Order Beast Lightning, the corrosive power of the Ape King Violet Lightning was clearly something that Mu Zhan could hardly withstand.

Yang Shan's kick landed squarely on Mu Zhan's abdomen.

Mu Zhan was sent flying.

He knocked over several tables before finally stopping.

A mere Seven Star Great Fighter with Purple Word Seal.

Yang Shan had no idea how much alcohol Mu Zhan had drunk to dare to cause him trouble! Sure enough, this was true both in the original story and in the game.

Mu Zhan, with his arrogant and short-tempered attitude, is nothing but a clown.

If it weren't for the presence of Mu Chen, the head of the Mu Family, Yang Shan would have given Mu Zhan a severe beating today, leaving him with psychological trauma.

To avoid them popping up and getting in the way again later.

Ya Fei said with a hint of apology, "I'm sorry, Young Master Young Master Yang, I..."

"Okay, it's nothing. I'll go now. You go ahead and do your work. You don't need to see me off."

Watching Yang Shan leave the auction hall, Ya Fei turned around and looked at Mu Zhan.

Mu Zhan then felt somewhat embarrassed.

He had never seen Ya Fei with such an expression before.

That expression looks like it's about to eat someone alive!

Nalan Jie looked at Mu Chen, the head of the Mu Family, not far away, with a hint of schadenfreude.

Mu Zhan, one of the most outstanding members of the Mu Family in this generation, was humiliated by an unknown peer.

Mu Chen, the head of the family, must be feeling extremely bad.

Nalan Jie was not at all surprised by the defeat in the Mu Zhan.

After all, Yang Shan's combat strength was significantly Mu Zhan's!

The two Imperial Family princesses, who already knew that Mu Zhan would take action, were also surprised by Yang Shan's performance.

Clearly still a minor, the petite and delicate Princess Yao Yue covered her mouth and laughed:

"Sister, Mu Zhan is so pitiful!"

Yao Ye, on the other hand, seemed rather calm, only staring at the gate where Yang Shan had left. "I heard that Nalan Yanran once fought against this person named Yang Shan in the Magical Beast Forest Cloud Frost City."

Yao Yue: "What was the result?"

Yao Ye: "Defeated in one move."

"Ah!"

Yao Yue blinked. "That scary?"

Yao Ye: "I should get in touch with them if I get the chance. Wouldn't joining my Jia Ma Imperial Family be more promising than staying in Mitier?"

Yang Shan, who had already arrived at the entrance of the Auction House, was seen off by two rows of maids with the highest honors.

They all bent over at a 45-degree angle and uttered that classic line:

Welcome back next time!

Yang Shan hurried along without turning his head. "Next time for sure!"

Yang Shan is now heading to the border between the eastern part of Gama Holy City, the southern part of the Magical Beast Mountain Range, and the Tagor Desert.

The terrain there is extremely complex.

Furthermore, because it is located between the Gama Holy City and the Tagor Desert, there are actually no particularly powerful magical beasts here.

Yang Shan's original plan was to bid for usable items at the Auction House, then continue to take on a few good missions with the Mittel Family, and wait until he broke through to the Dou Ling before going there.

After all, the player's development speed will be greatly reduced after transitioning from the Da Dou Shi to the Dou Ling level.

Firstly, it's due to version reasons.

The number of monsters at the Dou Ling level has decreased significantly, and due to the increased intelligence of monsters, the difficulty of killing them has also increased considerably.

If we say that the Da Dou Shi marks the end of the beginner phase and the beginning of a certain level of difficulty for players...

So, the Dou Ling level requires players to change their leveling method.

The focus has shifted from high-intensity monster grinding to solo kills or small-group hunts!

Putting aside other things, even elite-level magical beasts at the Dou Ling level have very good combat power. Moreover, they can not only fight and launch surprise attacks, but also assess the situation and try to escape when they are in a disadvantageous position.

Of course, players at the Dou Ling level can still choose to use a large number of Tier 3 monsters to accumulate experience points and level up, but the experience points gained from killing low-level monsters will be greatly reduced.

Moreover, now that the Azure Cloud Association has surfaced in this version, theoretically any player, anywhere, could be attacked by the Azure Cloud Association NPCs.

Once a player reaches the Dou Ling, a normal death will deduct half a star's worth of experience points.

However, dying at the hands of the Azure Cloud Association NPC will deduct one star of experience points.

Therefore, if players want to improve themselves relatively efficiently, it is best to join a large faction.

Because you can gain more experience points by AFK Cultivation in the training formations set up by large forces.

Furthermore, players can engage in duels and duels with NPCs within large factions.

This sparring match will also yield relatively generous experience points, but it can only be triggered once every so often.

Therefore, the golden development path that the forum in the previous life concluded after a long discussion was:

Join a faction, acquire resources, and complete missions to earn rewards. During missions, try to kill monsters or NPCs independently or in a team.

Even many Top Player from the previous life would adopt this development path if they did not trigger special plots or opportunities.

Regarding version 1.2, Yang Shan's memories from his previous life didn't actually contain many clearly pointed opportunities.

After all, most players only get one chance at an opportunity, and they don't necessarily post about it on the forum.

As for special storylines, there are some!

For example, the main storyline between Hai Bodong and Xiao Yi Xian.

However, Yang Shan had already been to Hai Bodong's place.

As a being with Woeful Poison Body, Xiao Yi Xian possesses boundless potential. If one could establish a good relationship with her, that would certainly be a good thing.

However, based on the events of the previous life, Xiao Yi Xian will leave Green Mountain Town and head to the Chuyun Empire, where poison masters are everywhere.

The Chuyun Empire was not part of Yang Shan's main development plan.

Even if you manage to increase your affinity with Xiao Yi Xian in this version, it won't have much of a positive impact in subsequent versions.

Therefore, when Yang Shan was Server Shutdown, he set up a 1.2 development plan for himself.

The most crucial link is: the Black-Corner Region! Thousands of miles east of the "Town Ghost Pass" on the border of the Jia Ma Empire, you will arrive at the most chaotic region in the entire Northwest Continent! Due to its unique terrain, from thousands of years ago to the present, cultivators who have committed serious crimes and were forced to flee from various countries have come to the Black-Corner Region.

As a result, the Black-Corner Region has developed into an absolutely barbaric set of rules.

Here, there are no laws to bind you.

All rules are based on only two words: strength!

Of course, the cultivators who managed to escape from various countries were not ordinary people, and they all brought their wealth with them.

Therefore, the Black-Corner Region is filled with advanced cultivation techniques, Dou Technique, equipment, and all kinds of rare treasures.

In the game, the Black-Corner Region has never been mentioned in version updates.

However, with the implementation of the Jia Nan Academy, Black-Corner Region was naturally implemented as well.

Unlike Jia Nan Academy, which has a relatively good atmosphere.

Players will receive a notification the moment they step into the Black-Corner Region.

Players are advised to leave this terrible region.

Because here, players could be attacked at any time!

Upon death, players will lose three stars, and the chance of dropping items is as high as 50%!

It's fair to say that if a player dies once in the Black-Corner Region, and is unlucky, it can take several months to recover their losses! Of course, high risk means high reward.

The drop rate of NPCs killed in the Black-Corner Region will also increase significantly. In addition, players can choose one item from the NPC's possessions as a bonus!

Now, at the "border" that Yang Shan is heading to, there is a hidden Space Wormhole! Through the Space Wormhole, Yang Shan can travel thousands of miles away to the Black-Corner Region in a short time!
