A Big Shot, Emergency in the Jianghu!
[Ding! Congratulations to the player for breaking through to Four-Star Great Fighter! Free Attribute +5, Meridians attribute +1!]
[Ding! Congratulations to the player for breaking through to the Five-Star Great Fighter! Free Attribute +5, Meridians Attribute +1!]
Although leveling up becomes more difficult at higher levels, the Mottled Scorpion Beast still brought Yang Shan 30,000 experience points! Yang Shan's current leveling speed is so fast that even a genius NPC like Nalan Yanran would be envious, let alone players! However, the leveling patterns for NPCs and players are different.
Within the Misty Cloud Sect, there exists a special secret realm called the "Life and Death Gate." Nalan Yanran entered it for over three years and jumped directly from Da Dou Shi to the Peak Dou Wang! And in future storylines within the game, this speed will be even faster!
The Mottled Scorpion Beast transformed into white light.
This third-tier Thousand Beast King is a treasure trove; its hard armor, giant pincers, and even its limbs are all "fallen off".
But ultimately, there are only two types of drops.
A Magic Core, and a small piece of flesh.
Mottled Scorpion Beast Heart Blood Meat: The essence of the flesh and blood of the third-tier Thousand Beast King, the Mottled Scorpion Beast. Consuming it can Marrow Cleansing, increase Free Attribute by 20 points, and grant +2 to the Fire Spirit Root.
Body Tempering) - Immune to fire-mutated poison, other attribute mutation toxins are reduced by 50%, and there is no resistance to toxins of Tier 4 and above.
(Note: Effective for those below the Dou Ling; Tier 3 Heart Blood Meat can only be taken once, a second dose will not be effective.) Worth it!
Moreover, there are quite a few third-tier King of Beasts, so there must be many experts who can obtain their Heart Blood Meat.
However, the attribute increases are definitely not as outrageous as those of the Mottled Scorpion Beast!
If you consistently have a little more of these attributes than others, over time, they will accumulate into a towering mountain of numerical values that you'll have to look up to! It doesn't matter if you don't get other drops.
Having this thing is a steal!
After all, even the Thousand Beast King can't always drop its Heart Blood Meat.
Perhaps it was the increased drop rate due to Good Fortune, but Yang Shan shamelessly believed it was simply because of his good luck! He swallowed the Heart Blood Meat, and his stats spiked again! Player: Yang Shan
Level: Five-Star Great Fighter Attribute Performance——
Thunder Spirit Root: 15; Fire Spirit Root: 4; Wood Spirit Root: 1; Remaining Usable Spiritual Roots: 11 Constitution: 28; Bone Root: 62 Agility: 39; Meridians: 47; Comprehension: 22 Good Fortune: 13; Combat Performance——
Qi and Blood: 4430 Attack: 328 Defense: 193 Speed: 147 Dou Qi Intensity: 67 Total Dou Qi: 335 Constitution Modification: Third-Order Fire Poison Tempering If this stat sheet were posted on the forum without the ID "Yang Shan" attached, other players would definitely think it was photoshopped! Where can you find Da Dou Shi player with a higher attack stat than a Tier 3 King of Beasts? The Dou Qi Intensity increase from Dou Qi to Five-Star Great Fighter is only 14 points! What is 67 points of Dou Qi Intensity even?
Even Profound Tier Low Grade cultivation techniques with Golden Word Seal aren't this outrageous!
Looking at this pleasing character panel, Yang Shan only had one word to say:
Awesome! I summoned Maple Leaf Colt and mounted it.
"Giddy up!" In the Thousand Treasure Pavilion of Desert City, Zhu Tianpeng, covered in dust and dirt, walked in.
"Elder Hai! Elder Hai! The task you gave me is beyond human capability!"
Zhu Tianpeng's crying scenes were quite good, conveying a strong sense of heartbreak.
But Hai Bodong was clearly unmoved, and even laughed out loud:
"If you can't do it, that's your problem. Crying to me won't help. I don't do business at a loss."
Hai Bodong stroked his beard:
"You'd better hurry up and think of something. If that Serpent-People tribe's caravan is about to enter the Tagor Desert, that place... hehe."
Zhu Tianpeng slammed his hand on the table, seemingly trying to project a fierce aura.
But the jiggling fat on his face didn't look fierce at all.
"Fine! Fine! I refuse to believe I can't kill those Snake-People!"
Not long after Zhu Tianpeng left, Yang Shan arrived at the Thousand Treasure Pavilion.
He revealed the Magic Core and four other medicinal herbs in his hand.
Even Hai Bodong, a seasoned and experienced expert, couldn't help but sigh:
"It's one thing for Da Dou Shi to be so young, but I truly never imagined that you could even kill Mottled Scorpion Beast!"
The rewards and the difficulty of the tasks are naturally matched.
"Tyrant Blade" was never supposed to be Dou Technique that could be normally produced in this version.
Therefore, the task requirements are something that players in this version theoretically cannot handle alone.
Yang Shan did not explain. After putting the items back into his Storage Ring, Yang Shan said:
"Sir, could you please tell me what the last thing you need is?"
Hai Bodong sized up Yang Shan:
"Hey kid, what's your name?"
"Grandpa, my name is Yang Shan."
"From now on, please don't call me 'old man' anymore. You can call me Elder Hai."
Hai Bodong laughed and said, "I do enjoy dealing with promising young people. If you are Water Attribute cultivator, I'm afraid I've already considered taking you on as a disciple. But rest assured, whether it's what you want to exchange or our bet, it won't disappoint you!"
[Ding! Congratulations to the player for gaining the favor of Thousand Treasure Old Man, earning 15 points of affinity. Thousand Treasure Old Man has been renamed Elder Hai.]
Hai Bodong's character is unique, and players can easily raise his favorability at the beginning. As long as the relevant opportunity tasks are completed, the favorability can be raised to 10 points.
However, Yang Shan has already gained 15 points of favorability in one go, even before he has officially completed the relevant opportunities.
This mainly stems from Yang Shan's own strength.
Hai Bodong requires players to find relevant items to gradually wear down the seal within his body, so naturally, he is more favorable to skilled players.
This makes perfect sense.
Hai Bodong tossed Yang Shan a round watch-like device.
The instrument has only one pointer, pointing northeast.
Hai Bodong said, "I received news that a Snake-People squad secretly crossed the border these past two days and obtained a lot of rare supplies from the Tagor Desert from some cities. In the process, they injured one of my friends. I have something to do and can't leave for the time being. You go and help me wipe out that Snake-People squad. This little gadget can guide you."
[Ding! Elder Hai has issued the final stage of the quest: Eliminate the designated Snake-People squad (number of Snake-People: 8). After completing the quest, you can exchange your reward with Elder Hai.]
Previously, Hai Bodong had already indicated that the mission content was different from that of his previous life by listing the Mottled Scorpion Beast Magic Core, which was originally the final step, in advance.
But Yang Shan really didn't expect that.
The final step of the mission even involves the Serpent-People tribe!
Generally speaking, the difficulty of these opportunities and tasks gradually increases.
The final piece should be even stronger than the Mottled Scorpion Beast.
Yang Shan also felt immense pressure.
After leaving Thousand Treasure Pavilion, Yang Shan rubbed his temples.
Since he didn't know the exact composition of the Snake-People team, Yang Shan decided to buy some more useful items in Desert City, just in case.
Just then, Yang Shan received a message from a friend.
"Zhu Tianpeng? What does he want with me?"
Yang Shan's expression was somewhat complicated as he opened the friends' chat.
"One-Blade Bro! Are you free? Can you do me a small favor? I'll pay you! That old man Hai Bodong is crazy. He wants me to wipe out the Serpent-People tribe's secret team. I have three Da Dou Shi and five Peak Dou Master. I really can't handle this!"
Yang Shan thought for a moment and replied, "I suggest you change your form of address when you talk to me."
Zhu Tianpeng: "Brother Yang! Boss! I'm in dire need of your help, please lend a hand!"
Yang Shan: "I'm also preparing to do my own tasks, so I don't have time for that."
Zhu Tianpeng: "Paid! Paid!"
Yang Shan: "Do I look like I'm short of money? By the way, how much money can you give me?"
Zhu Tianpeng: "Uh, five thousand?"
Yang Shan: "Are you trying to send me away like Delia? I'm not going."
Zhu Tianpeng panicked. "Boss, I really don't have that much money. Why don't you suggest other requests?"
Yang Shan waited a while before saying, "Well then, I was planning to start a game guild later. Seeing that you have a Tier 3 Beast Water, you should have some combat power."
Zhu Tianpeng: "Damn! You really have a discerning eye, boss. I, Zhu Tianpeng, am indeed exceptionally strong. I, a third-tier Beast Water, roam the Tagor Desert with ease. Um, could you send me the contract so I can consider it?"
Zhu Tianpeng was rather cautious and did not agree rashly.
After all, these days, some unscrupulous guilds' contracts are indeed quite disadvantageous to players.
After Yang Shan sent over a screenshot of the contract, Zhu Tianpeng replied almost instantly, "Damn! Freelancer Contract? Boss, are you sure you signed this?"
Yang Shan: "Nonsense, just read the terms carefully yourself."
Zhu Tianpeng: Are there any signing benefits?
Yang Shan: "One Body Tempering Pill. Also, I'll take care of this mission for you, but from now on, we'll distribute rewards based on our work."
Zhu Tianpeng: "Sign! I'll sign!"
"Send me the coordinates."
Yang Shan never expected that the opportunity to sign a contract with Zhu Tianpeng would be given by Hai Bodong.
However, this also shows that Hai Bodong really valued Zhu Tianpeng.
Otherwise, the mission details wouldn't have been changed specifically to have Yang Shan help Zhu Tianpeng.
Zhu Tianpeng probably never imagined that even if he did nothing, the task involving the Serpent-People tribe would still be completed.
With three Da Dou Shi and five Peak Dou Master, Yang Shan's current combat strength is more than enough to take them down alone!
Of course, the mission was secondary to why Zhu Tianpeng agreed so readily.
The main reason is Yang Battle Through the Heavens's status as the number one player in Yang Shan and his "Freelancer Contract".
Of course, the "Freelancer Contract" will take a cut of the revenue from the signed players.
For example, Chao Bafang.
When Yang Shan assigns actions in the name of "boss", if Chao Bafang's contribution is 50%, then Chao Bafang's actual benefit is generally only 45% or even 40%.
In other words, Chao Bafang earns ten million from Yang Shan directions, one million will end up in his pocket.
Of course, as the client, Yang Shan will also represent the company to provide certain benefits and conveniences to the contracted players.
After all, the stronger the signed players are, the more beneficial it is for the boss.
This is especially true for a lone wolf like Yang Shan.
For some tricky tasks, gathering a few Top Player under your command can immediately reduce the difficulty of the task.
Yang Shan rode the Maple Leaf Colt and quickly arrived at Zhu Tianpeng's location.
Because they still had other tasks to complete, the signing process was handled exceptionally quickly.
After Zhu Tianpeng signed and pressed his fingerprint, Yang Shan immediately took out a Body Tempering Pill and threw it over.
Zhu Tianpeng swallowed hard.
"Boss, can I list this thing on the Auction House?"
Yang Shan glared at Zhu Tianpeng: "What do you think?"
Zhu Tianpeng steeled his heart and swallowed the small pill, which was currently worth over ten thousand RMB.
"Boss, those Serpent-People tribe aren't far away, what should we do?"
"I'm not used to people calling me boss, so let's change how we address each other."
"Um, is his name Brother Yang?"
"Either is fine, it's up to you."
Yang Shan stood up and dusted himself off. "Are you sure it's Da Dou Shi with three Purple Word Seal leading the team?"
Zhu Tianpeng: "Confirmed."
Yang Shan: "Then just go for it. How much contribution you can get in the battle depends on your skills."
Zhu Tianpeng clicked his tongue. "Damn, the number one character in Battle Through the Heavens speaks with such domineering style!"
