Yang Shan knew that Su Yitang's weapon was of a high grade.

But I really didn't expect it to be so "not low".

Although the Thunder Guiding Blade has been with Yang Shan for a long time, it is still an absolute top-tier piece of equipment in this version.

Both Chao Bafang and Zhu Tianpeng obtained their level weapons in this version by completing a special mission with high difficulty.

But Su Yitang's weapon was actually a level higher, with Golden Word Seal.

This is certainly due to the production bonuses from the special region of Black-Corner Region.

However, it is also inseparable from Su Yitang's own opportunities and strength.

Yang Shan asked in the group chat, "Su Yitang, what level are you at now?"

Su Yitang: "Reporting to the boss, this humble employee is currently at the level of Nine-Star Great Fighter. I am about 35,000 experience points short of meeting the requirements for the Heart Demon Trial."

Chao Bafang: "Wow! Players who get signed by Great God are indeed extraordinary. Their level progress is even a little bit faster than mine."

Yang Shan: "The company benefits have been mailed to you, please take a look."

Su Yitang: "Wow! Two Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill! Boss, can I sell them for money?"

Yang Shan: "Were you a beggar in your past life? Are you that short of money?"

Su Yitang: Uh

Yang Shan: "Swallow it right now! If you don't break through to the Dou Ling before I arrive in the Black-Corner Region, the operation is canceled!"

Su Yitang: "No, no, I'll eat it right away."

Chao Bafang: "Wait a minute! Let me check, has Su Meinu not taken the Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill yet?"

Yang Shan: "Nonsense, we just signed the contract, shouldn't we start receiving benefits after signing?"

Chao Bafang: "Su Meinu, I was speaking too loudly just now!"

Chao Bafang really thought Su Yitang was slightly ahead of him.

Looking at it now, can this really be called a tiny bit?

A difference of over 30,000 experience points!

That's enough Chao Bafang for a long time! Yang Shan: "You should go level up too. Look how conscientious Lao Zhu is. If you two get trampled on by a little girl in the future, I'd like to see where you'll put your faces!"

Su Yitang: "Boss, I'm not young."

Yang Shan: "I don't believe you unless you send me photos as proof!"

Su Yitang: "Boss, you're being a bit too direct with your lewdness."

Then he also attached an emoji.

Yang Shan:

Su Yitang: "6!"

Yang Shan sneered.

Do you really think my dozens of gigabytes of image library are just for show?

"Go level up quickly, I'm coming to Black-Corner Region right away!"

Su Yitang: "This humble employee will obey the boss's orders!"

After giving Yang Shan the knife, Ya Fei did not stay long.

Yang Shan also had to set off for the Black-Corner Region.

Of course, it's not just because of Su Yitang.

Yang Shan had spent some time in Black Seal City and Dusk City, but the Ghoul Lord Token in his hand still didn't react.

Yang Shan decided to try his luck elsewhere.

As for the Jia Ma Empire, Yang Shan also wanted to acquire more Soul Accumulation Pearl.

But this thing is the result of the Azure Cloud Association Soul Body.

If a branch has Soul Accumulation Pearl, it's highly likely that there's Dou Wang- level NPC in charge.

It can't be rushed.

In the Black-Corner Region, the thread Soul Envoy Luo Xie cannot be abandoned.

Yang Shan took one last look at the player Auction House.

The Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill is always auctioned in packs of two, with the main goal of securing it all at once.

Therefore, wealthy players are obviously much more willing to spend money.

The average transaction price for two Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill is approximately 80,000 RMB.

Yang Shan already had over a hundred Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill, but he had set it to release two every six hours! Yang Shan couldn't keep refining medicine indefinitely, and the amount of medicinal materials he had wouldn't allow him to do so.

In addition, the price of Bone Sculpting Pill has temporarily stabilized at 15,800 yuan per pill.

Currently, Yang Shan still holds a monopoly on Purple Heart Barrier Breaking Pill and Bone Sculpting Pill.

Then Yang Shan could simply not rush things and instead maximize the value of each pill.

Make sure you've made a fortune before any competitors appear! Yang Shan set off again from the East Gate of Gama Holy City.

Yang Shan was very fortunate to have caught Hoof Shadow in Cloud Frost City.

Otherwise, even if there were Space Wormhole, the time required to travel back and forth would be quite considerable.

One teleport costs 100,000 Spirit Stone! Even though the exchange rate between Spirit Stone and RMB is now 7:1, the teleportation fee would still be around 14,000 RMB.

That's really an exaggeration.

If Yang Shan's bank account hadn't recovered to eight figures, this Space Wormhole wouldn't have been meant for this version in the first place.

You still have to pay this money.

After passing through the Space Wormhole, Yang Shan stepped into Black Seal City again and arrived at the pawnshop with ease.

"The shopkeeper"

Upon entering the pawnshop, Yang Shan stared at Luo Xie, who was sitting behind the counter.

Last time Luo Xie was in Dusk City, and now he's in Black Seal City.

This Tower Master is truly responsible! Yang Shan originally planned to meet with Old Xu, the former manager of Black Seal City, and use his status Gold Killer to get some good missions from Old Xu.

After all, in terms of status, Old Xu was just a Silver Killer, and he had to call Yang Shan "sir".

But now facing Luo Xie, Yang Shan could only lower his head and shout:

"Grown ups!"

"Cheng E, what are you doing in Black Seal City?"

Yang Shan: "I just finished practicing my cultivation technique and came here to take on some tasks."

Upon hearing this, Luo Xie's heart trembled.

The scene of Yang Shan throwing heads onto the counter every day in Dusk City is still vivid in my mind.

Ha! Wasn't it enough that you messed with Dusk City? Now you've set your sights on Black Seal City, huh?

After Yang Shan clasped his hands in greeting to Luo Xie, he walked towards the back door on his own.

Luo Xie was still thinking of having a chat with Yang Shan.

As a result, Yang Shan immediately went to accept missions! He was either cultivating or accepting missions.

Doesn't this guy have anything else on his mind?

Isn't it boring to repeat the same thing over and over again?

"How about I go for a dip to calm my nerves?" Luo Xie quickly chased after him.

"Cheng E, you don't really need to be in such a hurry. After all, you're Gold Killer now, but you're only a one-star... um? Three-Star Dou Ling?"

How long has it been? Less than a month, and it's already jumped two stars?

This is a bit outrageous! While Luo Xie was still in shock, Yang Shan had already picked up the booklet and started flipping through it.

The last parchment of Su Yitang's fortune was in the hands of an elder of the Eight Gates.

It just so happens that Black Seal City is the territory of the Eight Gates.

According to information provided by Su Yitang.

The elder was recuperating in the deep mountains, eighty miles away from Black Seal City.

Although he is Dou Wang Elder, the Eight Gates, as a first-class force in the Black-Corner Region, naturally has its own factions.

It seems that Elder Dou Wang was also worried that his injuries were too severe.

Even if they return to the Eight Gates for protection, they might still be killed by elders from other factions.

After all, there aren't many people you can trust in the Black-Corner Region.

Therefore, Yang Shan wanted to find out if the Bloodshed Hall had any assassination missions related to this elder.

I can't believe it actually exists!

Gold Medal Assassination Mission: Fang Sheng

Target information: Three-Star Dou Wang, Water Attribute, cultivation technique is Mystic Rank Middle-Level "Black Water Skill", and signature Dou Technique is Mystic Rank Middle-Level "Thousand Water Entanglement".

Assassination reward: 25,000 points.

Luo Xie breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the booklet in Yang Shan's hand.

No Dou Ling would be foolish enough to cause trouble for Dou Wang.

Presumably, they were somewhat frustrated by the difficulty of the gold medal assassination mission.

Luo Xie thought to himself:

"Kid, do you really think I promoted you out of turn just because I saw your potential? Now that you've become a gold medalist, you still want to aim for a silver medal? Heh, young man, you haven't seen enough of the world!"

In Luo Xie's view, Yang Shan is currently not interested in the silver medal target and can't handle the gold medal target, so the best way is to continue to improve his strength as much as possible.

This will reduce the frequency of accepting tasks.

Otherwise, if they really killed like they did in Dusk City before, wouldn't the Black Seal City branch have to move away as soon as possible?

"Cheng E, there's no need to be discouraged. I see you have good talent; just focus on your cultivation."

Luo Xie wanted to say a few more words of comfort to Yang Shan.

After all, in his view, Yang Shan was a promising talent who could be nurtured and eventually join the Soul Hall.

As a result, Yang Shan simply put the booklet away.

Luo Xie: "."

What's going on? Are young people these days so arrogant? Three-Star Dou Ling killing Three-Star Dou Wang?

"You think you're Hun Miesheng?" (Hun Miesheng: Soul Hall Master, Five-Star Dou Sheng, considered a top genius even within the Soul Clan in his youth.) Luo Xie felt it necessary to remind this promising talent of his:

"Cheng E, are you sure you're not mistaken about the booklet? That's Three-Star Dou Wang, not Three-Star Dou Ling!"

Yang Shan: "I know."

Luo Xie was stunned. "You knew that and you still accepted? Are you crazy? What do you think you're going to use to kill Dou Wang?"

Yang Shan knew that the time for his performance had come.

Yang Shan deliberately placed his hand on the hilt of the Thunderbolt Blade, activating the Tyrant Blade technique.

The aura of his blade spread out, and Yang Shan tried his best to maintain a cold expression, deliberately lowering his voice. "This man, I will kill!"

Luo Xie's mouth twitched:

"This kid exudes such a murderous aura?"

Luo Xie recalled that when he was wandering at the bottom of the Soul Hall, he also killed people in various ways for the sake of missions.

But at that time he was almost Dou Emperor).

Yang Shan, Three-Star Dou Ling! Luo Xie asked, "Do you have a grudge against Fang Sheng?"

Yang Shan: "I only made one friend in the Black-Corner Region. She's gone, and I have to avenge her!"

If Su Yitang were here right now, she'd probably want a "Thank you so much" emoji.

Luo Xie: "Kid, what kind of friends can you possibly have in the Black-Corner Region?"

Yang Shan: "It's precisely because friends are hard to come by in the Black-Corner Region that even if he doesn't accept the offer, I'll still kill him!"

Luo Xie nodded:

"I understand, if..."

Luo Xie originally wanted to say that there was a rule in the Bloodshed Hall that allowed people to use points to ask other assassins for help.

However, Yang Shan had already spent all his points on the "Wrathful Thunder Mystic Skill".

No points? How do you find help? The answer is simple: take on tons of missions and kill tons of people! Grab points little by little, then ask other Gold Killer for help!

But to kill a Three-Star Dou Wang, it's safer to ask two people for help.

You need at least 40,000 points.

If it's a silver-level target, you have to kill at least thirty people! If the Eight Gates were to have a Dou Ling Deacon die every day for a month, wouldn't that cause an uproar?

Therefore, Luo Xie dared not continue speaking.

He was afraid that if he spoke up, the leader of the Eight Gates might come to visit this pawnshop one day!

"Forget it, there's no deadline for the mission anyway. This kid may be bloodthirsty, but he shouldn't be a fool. He wouldn't go looking for trouble with Fang Sheng right now. Besides, Fang Sheng isn't at the Bagua Sect lately."

Luo Xie patted Yang Shan on the shoulder:

"Kid, in the Black-Corner Region, only strength is reliable. Focus on your training. How about taking on another Silver Rank mission to practice?"

As soon as Luo Xie finished speaking, he wanted to slap himself.

Damn it, why bring up something you shouldn't have said! "No need, maybe next time."

Yang Shan's answer relieved Luo Xie greatly.

Watching Yang Shan's departing figure, Luo Xie sighed, "This kid knows he needs to be more composed now. Killing people all the time isn't a good thing. He needs to calm down first, cultivate diligently, and learn to balance his efforts. Only then can he go further. Hmm, my judgment was indeed sharp. This kid has a bright future!"
