Yun Shan's Forceful Assault
Yang Shan hadn't gone far when he suddenly looked up at the sky.
The Red Tail Scorpion Beast was also on high alert. "True Lord, there are three high-star Dou Wang, and they seem to be heading this way!"
Yang Shan waved his hand. "Don't panic, he's my friend!"
Two men and one woman landed.
With Chao Bafang halberds planted on the ground in all directions, he was about to strike a domineering pose.
Unexpectedly, the sand was soft, and his heavy halberd pierced halfway into it.
Zhu Tianpeng fared even worse; his feet sank right into the hole as soon as they touched the ground.
Su Yitang smiled sweetly, "Boss, your humble employee is here!"
Yang Shan smiled and said:
"If you three don't come soon, you won't even get to drink the soup!"
Chao Bafang: "The situation on the Jia Ma Empire is too difficult to handle. Jia Xingtian's brain is really like a rock in the toilet, smelly and hard. He is worried that after joining forces, the Imperial Family will become the main target of the Misty Cloud Sect."
Zhu Tianpeng: "I just don't understand. Even without an alliance, the Imperial Family is a key target of the Misty Cloud Sect. In the entire Jia Ma Empire, he is the only Nine Star Dou Huang with a chance to break through to Dou Zong. If Yun Shan doesn't target him, who else would they target?"
Su Yitang: "The progress on Yun Yun's side is also not going smoothly. Mitier and the Nalan Family are willing to join forces, but the Imperial Family, the Alchemist Guild and the Mu Family are still observing."
Yang Shan nodded. "That's good."
Su Yitang: "Oh? That's good?"
Yang Shan: "If everything goes smoothly, then what do you need me for?"
Su Yitang's quick-witted little brain immediately understood Yang Shan's meaning. "Goodness! Boss, are you going to play the 'helping in times of need' game again?"
Yang Shan: "Then why did I leave so decisively? Let the bullets fly for a while first."
The greater the resistance Yun Yun, the more help she needs.
This would give Yang Shan more opportunities to increase Yun Yun's favorability.
Ultimately, whether Yun Yun can regain control of the Misty Cloud Sect Yang Shan.
Most importantly, Yun Yun later went to Central Plains and became the young sect leader of the Flower Sect!
Because of their different statuses and potential, Yun Yun's favorability is much harder to cultivate than Ya Fei's.
If the difficulty level were only at the level of Ya Fei, then Yang Shan would have already triggered the Global Announcement of "Sealed Heart Locked Love".
Chao Bafang noticed the Red Tail Scorpion Beast not far away and excitedly asked, "Great God, are you attacking the boss? Can I get some help?"
Zhu Tianpeng: "Hey hey hey, a sixth-tier Thousand Beast King! He must have tons of experience!"
Yang Shan said helplessly, "Be polite to your allies!"
The Red Tail Scorpion Beast is also very sensible.
Although it didn't take these three Dou Wang seriously.
But out of respect for Yang Shan, it had to show deference.
"Greetings, gentlemen. I am the collaborator of the True Lord, the Red Tail Scorpion Beast. You may call me Red Scorpion. If you do not mind, I can take you to the Red Sand Continent, where there is the sweetest water and the most delicious fruit."
Chao Bafang asked curiously:
"Great God, how did you manage to subdue the sixth-tier Thousand Beast King so completely?"
With the Red Tail Scorpion Beast present, Yang Shan couldn't possibly reveal the intricacies of the situation to its face.
"Red Scorpion, go back first and guard Red Sand Continent. Make sure you recognize these three people beside me. In the coming period, anyone who dares to approach Red Sand Continent, except for these three, will be killed without exception! Later, I will bring the elite of the Serpent-People tribe to deploy here!"
Red Tail Scorpion Beast: "Yes! Thank you, True Lord. I'll head back now."
After sending the Red Tail Scorpion Beast away, Yang Shan asked:
Where is Ink Iron Marshal?
"It's right here!"
Su Yitang took Ink Iron Marshal out of her Storage Ring.
Like Blood Pact Magical Beast and mounts, puppets are considered "auxiliary combat units" of the player and cannot be remotely mailed.
Therefore, we can only rely on Su Yitang to deliver it.
During this period, the two old men, Tie Yang and Bai Su'an, really worked overtime and finally managed to repair Ink Iron Marshal.
The moment Ink Iron Marshal saw Yang Shan, he knelt down and performed a kneeling ceremony.
This scene truly made Chao Bafang and Zhu Tianpeng extremely envious.
Even Su Yitang couldn't help but say, "The boss is so handsome! I wish I could be like him."
The allure of power and wealth is indiscriminate, regardless of gender.
Su Yitang also fantasized about being in a high position, where everyone would treat her with utmost respect wherever she went.
Along the way, Yang Shan shared his interactions with the Red Tail Scorpion Beast with the three of them.
"If you encounter this situation in the future, you can try to cooperate. After all, killing monsters is only a one-time event, but resources are constantly being refreshed."
Chao Bafang suddenly thought, "Hey, what about the lair of the Amethyst Winged Lion King in the Magical Beast Forest? Can we take it over too?"
Yang Shan: "That can't be claimed."
Chao Bafang: "Why?"
Yang Shan: "To the north of the Magical Beast Mountain Range is the Chuyun Empire, to the southwest is the Jia Ma Empire, and to the east is the Serpent-People tribe. Players from all three major nations will enter the Magical Beast Mountain Range to level up. If you want to claim land in this area, it's equivalent to standing on the opposite side of the players from the three major nations. Can you stop them?"
Chao Bafang: "Uh, we can't stop it."
Zhu Tianpeng pondered for a moment:
"However, we can use the power of the Imperial Family to acquire land in other places, but we don't know which places would be suitable."
Yang Shan: "These kinds of things are rare and hard to come by, but once you discover them, you can basically benefit from two or three versions. Just keep an eye out for them, and don't force it."
Su Yitang sighed:
"Sigh, I can't do it, boss. I might have to take leave soon."
Yang Shan: "Are you asking for leave?"
Su Yitang: "Well, after I break through to the Dou Emperor, I'll be heading to the Central Plains to seek opportunities. I won't be able to help you with anything you need for the time being, boss, hmm hmm hmm."
Yang Shan: "This is a good thing. We must seize this Heaven and Earth Oddities opportunity."
Su Yitang's business is already doing quite well.
Of the three sects in the previous life, Xiao Aotian is currently the most successful, followed by Su Yitang, and then Yi Qingyang.
It's not yet Yi Qingyang's true "power-up period," and Su Yitang's Dou Technique setup is actually not much worse than Xiao Aotian's, and her equipment is even a little better.
However, Xiao Aotian possesses the Fallen Heart Flame, and the advantages brought by the Heaven and Earth Oddities are too great.
Once used, the absurd bonus can even directly upgrade the related amplification attribute seals! Purple Word Seal can be upgraded to gold, and gold seals can be upgraded to five colors! Zhu Tianpeng and Chao Bafang also triggered related Heaven and Earth Oddities.
But that's all that's been triggered; when the next step will occur is still unknown.
As for Su Yitang, once she arrives in Central Plains, she will probably begin formal preparations to subdue Strange Wind!
Yang Shan: "That's perfect. You'd better work hard this time and gain as much experience as possible."
Su Yitang clenched her little fists. "Hmph, don't worry, boss, I don't blink an eye when I kill!"
Northern Tagor Desert, surrounding the Spirit Stone Mine.
Because Yang Shan had previously "dragged away 500,000" and put on a show, scaring away Mulan Valley, Medusa Queen believed that the Spirit Stone Mine was defensible, so she launched another round of troop reinforcements.
Even the quest posting and handover for Serpent-People tribe players are done within the mining camp!
This means that almost all Serpent-People tribe players use camps as their temporary base.
For Mulan Valley, taking down this tough nut to crack is no easy task.
Of course, there have been constant clashes between the players from both sides over the past two days.
Most of the missions that players receive at the camp are related to combat.
Low-level Storage Ring have limited storage space, and in the desert, the most basic resource consumption needs to be constantly transported.
The two sides are basically clashing over the protection and interception of "supply transport".
For a time, the two sides were locked in a fierce battle.
Every second, several videos of Serpent-People tribe players and Mulan Valley players arguing can be found on the forum.
The Battle Through the Heavens's design and gameplay dictate that players will fight for their own masters.
The most fun online games are those with conflict! The tense situation on the front lines stands in stark contrast to the tranquility of the Serpent-People tribe's stronghold.
After all, Mulan Valley's goal was simply the Spirit Stone Mine.
In the VIP courtyard outside the Serpent-People Temple, Lu Man was, as usual, applying medicine to the Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor.
When an NPC is seriously injured, it will be marked with a special status called "weak".
This is the same for players.
However, the player's weakened state usually only lasts for a few days before the breakthrough fails, and the weakened state can last for a relatively long time.
When you are in a weakened state, your health can never be fully restored.
The panel attributes will also decline significantly.
The Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor said with dissatisfaction:
"The Blade Sovereign True Lord really has no sense of restraint when he strikes. I'm afraid it will take another ten days to half a month for my injuries to heal!"
Lu Man: "This is considered mild. If Blade Sovereign really hits hard, you'll be lying in White Fang for a year or two. What will happen to you?"
The Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor solemnly said:
"They're here!"
"Them?"
Lu Man was puzzled for a few seconds, then immediately looked up at the sky.
The desert region is arid year-round, with no clouds in the sky and blinding sunlight.
Six figures brazenly barged into the Serpent-People tribe's stronghold in broad daylight!
Lu Man: "The Three Mulan Elders, Yun Shan, and Pill King Gu He!"
The Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor, "Lu Man, I can't fight for the time being due to my injury. Since we've already cooperated with the Serpent-People tribe, you might have to decide whether to intervene based on the situation. Of course, if the Serpent-People tribe is clearly unable to withstand us, you can just give it a token show!"
Lu Man: "Of course I know. I didn't expect them to be so decisive. Instead of attacking the Spirit Stone Mine, they came to the Serpent-People tribe's stronghold!"
Eight-Winged Black Serpent Emperor: "Those old guys are very cunning. The Spirit Stone Mine is heavily guarded. The Three Mulan Elders naturally don't want to destroy the Mulan Empire's wealth. Taking advantage of the Serpent-People tribe's weakness, they can directly airdrop and capture Medusa Queen. That's a good idea!"
The six people in the sky are flying towards the Serpent-People Temple.
Of the Eight Great Leaders, "Black Poison" and "Flame Thorn," who had not gone to the front lines, stood in front of the other six! Of course, in front of the two, there was also a figure that no man could look away from.
Medusa Queen! As the queen of the Serpent-People tribe, Medusa remained unfazed even when facing Yun Shan, a Dou Zong powerhouse, and the Three Mulan Elders, who also possessed Dou Zong combat power.
Medusa looked at Mu Tiger, whose aura was very stable. "The Three Beasts Desolate Wild Decree is indeed extraordinary. Such injuries have been healed in just two or three days."
Then, Medusa Queen looked at Yun Shan and was filled with emotion:
"Letting you escape from my grasp was probably the worst decision I ever made in my life."
Yun Shan still had his hands behind his back.
Of everyone present, only he did not need Dou Qi Light Wings: "It wasn't you who made me escape back then, it was you who lacked the ability to take my life!"
Medusa Queen: "Yun Shan, what is your purpose in coming here, having bypassed the Spirit Stone Mine?"
Yun Shan: "I have come here specifically to retrieve the Green Lotus Core Flame!"
Medusa Queen's face darkened:
"Take? Yun Shan, you've got quite the nerve. What do you think the Serpent-People tribe? Someone you can come and go as you please?"
Medusa Queen was indeed strong-willed; she would take action at the slightest provocation!
The fiery Dou Qi transformed into a three-zhang-long fire snake and attacked Yun Shan, but Yun Shan flicked his sleeve, and a powerful wind force instantly shattered the fire snake.
Flames spread, yet could not penetrate Yun Shan's body.
A flowing white robe billowed, exuding the aura of a powerful figure! Yun Shan calmly gazed at Medusa Queen: "Don't even mention your mere Dou Qi clone; even if your true self came, you wouldn't be a match for my sect's methods!" (Cloning is an extremely rare and special Dou Technique; only Yun Shan Medusa have used it in the early to mid-stages.) "Medusa, I'll give you a choice: hand over the Green Lotus Core Flame, relinquish the Spirit Stone Mine, and the Serpent-People tribe can continue their lineage in Tagor. After all, I don't wish to create more bloodshed!"
Medusa Queen sneered, "What if I don't agree?"
As soon as Medusa finished speaking, Yun Shan unleashed an extremely terrifying aura, and the gale even reached the ground, blowing up sand and dust.
"If you don't agree, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Medusa Queen is still in seclusion, and the clone she has created also possesses the combat power of Three Star Dou Huang.
But compared to Yun Shan, it's simply not enough.
With just a single palm strike, Yun Shan was enough to force Medusa Queen, along with her Flame Thorn and Black Poison, to temporarily retreat.
At the critical moment, four figures flew in from a distance.
"Who dares to trespass on my Serpent-People Temple?"
The Serpent-People tribe were facing a life-or-death crisis, and the four reclusive elders could no longer stand idly by.
The eldest of the Three Mulan Elders, Mu Bear, said in a low voice, "Sect Master Yun Shan, just as you said, the Serpent-People tribe really does have some depth!"
Each of the four Nine Star Dou Huang possesses formidable combat power; while they may not be as strong as Medusa Queen, they are certainly not far off.
Yun Shan appeared very calm:
"We can't drag this out too long. If the Spirit Stone Mine send reinforcements, we'll be caught in an endless battle, which is unnecessary."
Mu Bear: "Hehe, it's alright. I've made arrangements for the Spirit Stone Mine. Right now, they probably can't afford to worry about this place!"
Yun Shan: "Then let's make our move, Gu He! We'll hold them off here. You go find the Green Lotus Core Flame first!"
Pill King Gu He clasped his hands in a fist salute:
"Thank you for your trouble, Sect Master!"
Medusa Queen said sternly:
"Pill King Gu He, you won't succeed!"
The terrifying gale forcefully pushed Medusa back.
"Medusa Queen, with me here, do you dare to be distracted?"
Yun Shan's speed was ridiculously fast, and Medusa Queen's clone was still too weak, allowing Yun Shan to easily get close.
The Great Elder of the Serpent-People tribe roared:
"Yun Shan, how dare you!"
Yun Shan smiled dismissively, and with a wave of his hand, he condensed a terrifying aura. "Great Wind Handprint!"
