It's really great that there's such a large player base in the National Server! There are so many players in this Dou Wang!

It was more than Yang Shan had estimated.

Looking at the densely packed figures in the sky, there are definitely more than two thousand people! There might even be more than three thousand!

But upon closer reflection, it makes sense.

The area surrounding Gama Holy City and Misty Cloud Mountain is considered the most prosperous region in the entire Jia Ma Empire.

The battle for resource points between the two sides mostly takes place in this area.

Therefore, if you need to rush over from other resource points, as long as they are not too far away, it will not take long at the speed of your Dou Qi Transformation Wings.

On the Battle Through the Heavens Forum, players from the Five Directions Alliance of the Jia Ma Empire created a special section for discussion.

Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng arrived early because they wanted to see if they could kill Yang Shan.

If they couldn't kill him, they would wait for the other Dou Wang players to arrive, and then they would gang up on him! Even if they ganged up on him, Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng were confident that, with their abilities, the final kill would definitely come from one of them! Although they had given up most of their Contribution Points and experience points, in their eyes, Yang Shan's loot was definitely enough to buy a suburban villa! Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng remained calm and quietly retreated.

Since it's about securing kills, we naturally need to conserve our strength and let other players take the lead.

Everyone knows the unspoken agreement!

Yang Shan had no intention of giving these more than three thousand Dou Wang the opportunity to take action.

He used both hands simultaneously, unleashing four consecutive Overload Bursts.

Of all the players within the blast radius, seven out of ten had their Dou Qi Armor blasted through!

Two of them had strong defenses and managed to hold out.

The remaining one, because its Dou Qi Armor was relatively weak, had its health bar completely wiped out by Yang Shan!

Following Yang Shan's method, any player whose level is no higher than Six-Star Dou Wang, or who doesn't have any special defensive Dou Technique, will undoubtedly die if they are hit by the Finger Strength Overload twice within ten minutes!

This kill efficiency is absolutely outrageous!

Of course, defense has always been Yang Shan's weakness.

Thunder and fire.

Because these two attributes are so violent, the corresponding defensive Dou Technique are the fewest.

Yang Shan has not yet acquired any defensive Dou Technique.

Even with the margin of error provided by the Dark Soul Mist, a single round of bombardment from over three thousand Dou Wang would be enough to kill Yang Shan thirty to fifty times over!

Therefore, Yang Shan kept moving, which greatly increased the difficulty for these Dou Wang to hit him with their ranged Dou Technique.

Meanwhile, "Three Thousand Thunder Movement" is always ready, able to dodge any unusual situation immediately.

This is the advantage brought by having the fastest speed in the entire server.

Whether to fight or retreat, the initiative is entirely in Yang Shan's hands!

Yang Shan started his fireworks show again.

The more than three thousand Dou Wang players present were terrified by the successive explosions.

In just one minute, more than one hundred Dou Wang players simply and purely provided Yang Shan with experience points and Soul Points.

This is Dou Wang!

Even at the very least, they are top-tier players in the current version.

But it couldn't withstand two explosions in front of Yang Shan! New kill messages kept popping up in Yang Shan's message bar.

Experience points are fine, though.

Cheng E's stats were controlled by him as One Star Dou Huang, but he was actually a two- Dou Emperor.

Therefore, the experience points gained from kills are calculated based on the standard for a two- Dou Emperor.

But Soul Points won't be lost! Although killing a Dou Wang player only grants 20% of the Soul Points for that level.

Even so, a single Dou Wang player is guaranteed at least 50 Soul Points! These 3,000 players can provide Yang Shan with at least 150,000 Soul Points! That's already quite good.

He would kill several times under the identity of "Cheng E," and then return to his original identity to lead the Five Directions Alliance to attack the Misty Cloud Sect.

This whole round trip might just fill up the high-grade Soul Accumulation Pearl in his hand! He'll be on the verge of reaching the Spirit Realm Late Stage!

Yang Shan was calculating his plans, and his mouth was practically splitting open with a grin under his mask!

But Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng just had to cause trouble.

They would always seize the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on Yang Shan after Yang Shan used "Three Thousand Thunder Movement" to dodge attacks.

This left Yang Shan somewhat helpless:

"I'm having a great time killing people, so don't bother me!"

Yang Shan even secretly tagged Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng in the group chat "Big Shot Gathering Camp":

"You two, get out of here! That Cheng E is no simple man; I'm not even confident I can beat him!"

Xiao Aotian: "Holy crap! Boss Yang, are you kidding me? Cheng E's Dou Technique are indeed strong, even more powerful than your Thunderfire Overload, and his speed is ridiculously fast, but it seems like he only has these two moves. You can't possibly lose to him?"

Ye Suifeng: "We have three thousand Dou Wang here, and we've also prepared a backup plan. Don't worry, Great God Yang, we won't fail. Cheng E is doomed today!"

Yang Shan was startled.

These two bastards actually had a backup plan? Yang Shan decided to probe the enemy's situation. "Wow, you two are something else. I haven't even gotten back yet, and you two are already up to something big. What backup plan have you two prepared?"

Xiao Aotian: "Hehe, you'll see when you watch the third-person perspective recordings on the forum later!"

After sending an ellipsis, Yang Shan closed the group chat.

He somewhat regretted not killing Xiao Aotian earlier.

Acting is really hard; you also have to keep people in suspense.

But it doesn't matter anyway.

No matter how confident Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng were, they couldn't possibly get Yang Shan's "first kill in the entire server" today! But before Yang Shan could even get his fill of killing, a golden barrier suddenly rose up in front of him, blocking Yang Shan way.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yang Shan immediately turned back.

As soon as I turned my head, a fiery red barrier appeared before my eyes.

Emerald green, azure blue, and earthy brown.

The other three barriers, each a different color, connect with the previous two barriers.

Five-colored barriers extend from both the top and bottom.

Colorful threads are woven into a net, which, together with the five-colored barrier, forms a pentagonal cage.

Yang Shan, however, was now a caged beast! Yang Shan gasped, "Holy crap! The Five Elements Trapping Dragon Formation? Has Bai Xiaosheng already set up the Tracing Pavilion?"

Bai Xiaosheng is currently the most popular player in the strategy section of the Battle Through the Heavens Forum.

How could a "brain genius" who can analyze and summarize various strategies not have some real skills in the game?

The "Tracing Pavilion" established by Bai Xiaosheng had three main businesses in his previous life: 1. Reselling valuable information.

2. Offer paid skills training courses.

3. Provide combat assistance to other forces.

The "Tracing Pavilion" doesn't have any Top Player, including its leader, Bai Xiaosheng, whose overall combat strength isn't top-notch.

The key to the ability of the Tracing Pavilion to provide combat assistance to other forces lies in its formation!

The Five Elements Trapping Dragon Formation is one of the core formations of the Tracing Pavilion, and it requires at least twenty-six players to work together to cast it.

Of these, 25 must be majoring in one of the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Furthermore, the personnel ratio for the five major attributes must be completely consistent.

In addition, one more person is needed to act as the center of the formation.

More than three thousand Dou Wang players have gathered here.

Even with Yang Shan's Spirit Realm Middle Stage Soul Strength, he couldn't detect from such complex Dou Qi fluctuations that the Tracing Pavilion had already set up an array.

The multicolored light made it impossible for Yang Shan's vision to penetrate the barrier.

However, he could still sense that Bai Xiaosheng was currently a hundred meters above him, controlling the formation.

Yang Shan sighed, "Tsk, I didn't expect that in such a short time, such a large-scale operation could be set up. Bai Xiaosheng is indeed amazing!"

Yang Shan was able to determine the location and approximate strength of the other twenty-five players by using the barrier energy.

There isn't a single player who surpasses Five-Star Dou Wang! This is also a unique feature of Bai Xiaosheng's management of the Tracing Pavilion. He didn't initially intend to cultivate Top Player, but rather to use a large number of elite players to achieve a greater effect than Top Player.

After all, Top Player can't be cultivated just by talking about it.

Battle Through the Heavens has never lacked elite players!

If this situation were left to Yang Shan, he could break the deadlock in no time!

But if it's handed over to "Cheng E," whose methods are limited.

This is a dead end! The power of the Finger Strength Overload is insufficient to break this "Five Elements Trapping Dragon Formation".

Looks like there's no fun to be had today!

At this moment, outside the formation, unseen by Yang Shan.

After Yang Shan's previous barrage of attacks, the number of Dou Wang players has dropped to less than 2,500.

According to the previous battle plan.

Everyone will act together.

Nearly 2,500 Dou Wang all used their strongest ranged burst-type Dou Technique.

The total damage has long exceeded the limit of the Five Elements Trapping Dragon Formation.

It will definitely exceed Yang Shan's Vitality Shield and blood volume limits.

Therefore, after this round of bombardment, Yang Shan, trapped in the Five Elements Trapping Dragon Formation, is doomed! Whoever manages to kill him will have to "luck" to decide.

But for Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng, this was not a game of luck.

These two have more advantages than other players.

Because it was the two of them who summoned the Tracing Pavilion!

If any of them successfully kills the target, they will pay the Tracing Pavilion a substantial reward.

However, Bai Xiaosheng is very ethical in doing business.

If the operation fails, Bai Xiaosheng will only charge the most basic "hardship fee".

Therefore, in order to ensure that Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng can be killed, Bai Xiaosheng will tell Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng in advance the most suitable time to make a move.

Even if the Five Elements Trapping Dragon Formation is not broken by then, Bai Xiaosheng will take the initiative to remove the formation so that Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng's Dou Technique can hit the target at the most appropriate time!

Ye Suifeng: "Let's see who's luckier now!"

In reality, what Ye Suifeng was thinking was:

"Hmph, I've been holding back a secret technique, ' Wind Fiend Annihilation Gang.' Your ' Flame Splitting Tsunami Ruler ' isn't as fast as mine! You've got me covered, hehe!"

Xiao Aotian answered confidently, "I have the Fallen Heart Flame, the advantage is mine!"

Xiao Aotian chuckled to himself, "Luckily, I got the ' Gathering Sun Bursting Wave ' from Senior Yao, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to compete with Ye Suifeng, hehe!"

Both men harbored ulterior motives and were already preparing their own hidden contingency plans.

Meanwhile, some Dou Wang players had already activated their Dou Technique.

Once you reach the top tier, there are relatively few players who don't use their brains.

In the current situation, whoever strikes first will suffer a loss, because the one who strikes first will inevitably have their Dou Technique blocked by the Five Elements Trapping Dragon Formation.

But what can we do? Xiao Aotian, Ye Suifeng, and Bai Xiaosheng have arranged for people to come and do nothing, huh?

Let's see who can hold back! As the people arranged by the three released their Dou Technique, seventy or eighty powerful energies instantly crashed towards the Five Elements Trapping Dragon Formation.

Other players, seeing this, were shocked. How long could the Five Elements Trapping Dragon Formation hold out?

First come, first served! Get started! With someone taking the lead, things will be much easier.

In no time, more and more Dou Wang players couldn't help but take action, while those who didn't were also very conflicted.

Only Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng remained calm and composed.

But at that moment, a chain emitting black smoke suddenly fell from the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the chains trapped the barrier formed by the Five Elements elements' Dou Qi.

Bai Xiaosheng, who was positioned above and controlling the formation, turned pale. "This is bad!"

Bai Xiaosheng also wanted to mobilize the energy of the formation to fight against the chains.

But in just one breath, the chains forcibly broke the Five Elements Trapping Dragon Formation.

Yang Shan broke free and rushed towards the horizon.

Bai Xiaosheng shouted angrily:

"Stop him! Stop him!"

The players present reacted swiftly, with hundreds of them immediately targeting Yang Shan and unleashing their prepared Dou Technique.

At this moment, a black-robed figure, also emanating black mist, appeared beside Yang Shan Yang Shan.

"Heh heh heh! A bunch of ants, daring to attempt to surround and kill my master, they truly have no regard for their own lives!"

With a casual wave of his hand, the man in black robes sent out several three-zhang-long black snakes that neutralized the hundreds of attacking Dou Technique.

Xiao Aotian, who hadn't even been able to unleash his Dou Technique yet, was already stunned as he stared at the panel displayed by the detection function.

[Protector Wu] (Purple; Rising)

Rank: Four Star Dou Zong

Attribute: Dark

Affiliation: Soul Hall; Position: Earth Grade Protector

Although Protector Wu's cultivation level did not improve, his combat strength naturally increased significantly due to his long period of seclusion, so his panel rating also rose by half a level.

Yang Shan has always been a steady and reliable person.

If it weren't for Protector Wu's covert protection, he would never have been so reckless in wreaking havoc in the Resting Grass Forest.

Instead, they would choose to run away the moment they saw Xiao Aotian.

After all, Cheng E's combat strength is indeed limited.

With Protector Wu backing him up, Yang Shan has no chance of failing! Protector Wu was actually Yang Shan using his soul to tell him that he could take action.

But Protector Wu deliberately pretended to be stupid and bowed to Yang Shan:

"Little Wù arrived too late to save the day, and the Mister E was frightened!"

This Protector Wu is truly skilled at being a subordinate!

His words and actions always gave his superiors face.

Yang Shan felt that this Protector Wu really had a trick up his sleeve.

That Hun Dan probably needs a clear-headed, perceptive, and capable subordinate like him.

According to Yang Shan's habits, he should immediately have Protector Wu escort him so he can continue his rampage!

But since he's playing the role of "Cheng E," he still has to follow the Soul Hall's style and say a few pretentious words before taking action.

Before Yang Shan could even speak, Xiao Aotian had already started spewing insults:

"Damn it! Cheng E, you bastard, why didn't you show it sooner if you had the Dou Zong?"

Yang Shan: "I said from the beginning that I would kill everyone here! If you had revealed your Dou Zong earlier, wouldn't you have all run away?"

Xiao Aotian kept tagging Ye Suifeng in the group chat, and Ye Suifeng quickly joined in, shouting, "You actually let Dou Zong interfere in a battle of our level, Cheng E, you are unworthy of being the Yunlan Sect's First Offering! If you're a man, then fight me one-on-one!"

Xiao Aotian immediately chimed in. "That's right! Cheng E, if you have the guts, let's have a one-on-one fight! It's a battle between One Star Dou Huang, and you're sending Dou Zong. That's simply disregarding Wu De!"

Yang Shan truly admired these two; even at this point, they still managed to come up with a way to provoke him into agreeing to a one-on-one duel, while simultaneously looking for an opportunity to kill him.

If it were any other NPC from the Soul Hall, they might actually agree on the first try.

But Yang Shan was different! With his hands behind his back, Yang Shan uttered a reply that left Xiao Aotian and Ye Suifeng speechless:

"No Wu De? Ha! When has my Soul Hall ever talked about Wu De?"
