Yang Shan slapped the manual, and the manual scattered into a cluster of light points that fell on Yang Shan.

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for learning "Thunder Guiding Lock" (Purple; Mystic Rank Middle-Level), current proficiency: Minor Success!]

Aside from the programmers at Tian Yao Company, Yang Shan is the only one who truly understands rare Dou Technique like those in Battle Through the Heavens!

These kinds of restrictive Dou Technique are actually quite troublesome.

If you don't react in time and take the right action, you can easily become a fish on the chopping block, at the mercy of others.

Yang Shan had suffered a loss in his previous life.

At that time, he was already Three Star Dou Huang. When he fought against a Soul Envoy from the Soul Hall who was only One Star Dou Huang, he was locked up by the opponent's chain-like restrictive Dou Technique and couldn't move.

He was almost killed by the opponent! Yang Shan was very fortunate that old Chai Lao Er hadn't used that move, otherwise it would have been really dangerous. If Chai Lao Er knew Yang Shan's thoughts, he would probably immediately resurrect from the white light and curse him:

"Damn it, I want to use it, are you going to give me a chance? You better give me a chance if you dare!"

There's no way around it; Yang Shan's combat experience is indeed ruthless and meticulous.

No matter what tricks Chai Lao Er wanted to use, as long as he showed any sign of gathering his Dou Qi, Yang Shan would immediately abandon his defense and switch to offense.

Although the 3-second Time Acceleration is short.

But Chai Lao Er will never see it! "Thank you, Brother Chai, for sending the ' Thunder Guiding Lock,' may you rest in peace!"

Yang Shan turned and walked towards Pang Lao San.

Now, Pang Lao San's eyes are filled with terror when he looks at Yang Shan.

[Ding! Pang Lao San has developed fear of you; loyalty +10. Current loyalty: 20]

Deterrence can also instill more awe in subordinates, naturally increasing their loyalty.

Unfortunately, even if Pang Lao San was extremely loyal to him, Yang Shan didn't intend to take him.

Yang Shan glanced at the Pang Family assassin beside him.

Previously, Pang Lao San referred to this Pang Family assassin as "Chen Gu".

That means Chen Gu was just an elder from a different clan within the Pang Family.

Chen Gu, being stared at by Yang Shan, was like a cat in a state of shock, his fur standing on end! But he dared not resist.

Yang Shan's combat strength has already been clearly demonstrated by Chai Lao Er's life.

Chen Gu had no choice but to give up resistance for a chance of survival! Yang Shan Thunder Guiding Blade at Chen Gu:

"Pang Lao San, can this man be trusted? I don't mind silencing him for you."

Chen Gu: "My lord, it's me."

Pang Lao San quickly added:

"Please rest assured, sir. Brother Chen Gu is my sworn brother. He Pang Family because of me. My words carry more weight than the head of the household with Chen Gu. Please show mercy, sir."

Yang Shan nodded and looked at Chen Gu:

"Fine, seeing that you're standing here without making a sound, I'll spare your life."

If only Pang Lao San returns to the Pang Family alone, he probably won't be able to hold the family together, since Pang Family head of the family ultimately has the final say.

With the addition of a powerful elder from another clan, it became even easier for Pang Lao San to get things done.

Hearing Yang Shan's words, Chen Gu's tense nerves finally relaxed, and he began to breathe heavily.

But seeing that Thunder Guiding Blade's blade was still pointing at him, Chen Gu broke out in a cold sweat:

"My lord, didn't you say you would spare my life?"

Yang Shan: "Say thank you."

"Ah?"

Chen Gu was stunned for a second before he realized what was happening, and nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.

"Thank you, sir! Thank you for sparing my life!"

"Very good!"

Yang Shan gracefully sheathed his sword.

"Ba Fang, let's go back to Cloud Frost City!"

Watching Yang Shan summon the Maple Leaf Colt Steed and mount it, he exclaimed from the Chao Bafang of his heart, "Holy crap, that's awesome!"

Of course, the "commander" mentioned by Chao Bafang does not refer to Yang Shan riding a horse.

Rather, it refers to Yang Shan's response to the assassination attempt, which involved counter-attacks and attempts to persuade the enemy to surrender. The situation actually developed differently from the original plan, but Yang Shan was able to act swiftly and decisively without any hesitation.

In short, it can be summed up in two words: domineering!

"Great God, when do you think I can be like you?"

Yang Shan: "The same as what?"

"So powerful!"

He brandished his halberd in Chao Bafang:

"Dominating all directions, unstoppable!"

Yang Shan thought for a moment and said, "If you were to drop a major realm from the NPCs we encountered today, you could be just like me."

Chao Bafang: "Isn't this a bit too harsh? Does it have to be a major realm lower?"

Chao Bafang's combat strength is actually already very high.

It's important to know that the battles Yang Shan is currently facing are basically more intense than the current version.

Chao Bafang could also serve as Yang Shan Shan's assistant, and even single-handedly kill a Da Dou Shi with Purple Word Seal.

By the standards of a normal player, Chao Bafang is now among the very best.

Yang Shan: "You should first try to get some Beast Soil to boost your combat power."

With his current direct combat capabilities, coupled with the techniques and insidious methods he learned from Yang Shan, Chao Bafang is confident that he can even solo a Tier 3 King of Beasts.

"I wish I could too. Earth Attribute magical beasts are easy to find, but the chance of them dropping mutated Magic Core is too low."

At this point, Chao Bafang suddenly thought of something, "Hey, Great God, what kind of strange lands are there in Battle Through the Heavens the Heavens? If I get lucky and manage to get my hands on some, will I be stronger than you?"

In ""Battle Through the Heavens Encyclopedia"", there are lists for the seven categories of Heaven and Earth Oddities: metal, Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning.

However, only the Heavenly Flame Ranking lists twenty-three different kinds of Heavenly Flames.

The rest of the lists of Heaven and Earth Oddities were all blank.

The relevant information will only appear on the list when Heaven and Earth Oddities.

Yang Shan remembered that in his previous life, only two types of exotic lands were obtained by players.

The seventeenth-ranked Strange Earth List, "Earth Demon Azure Rock," Jin Shankao, the guild leader of the Hero King Manor.

The twenty-first item on the Strange Earth List, "Black Rock Profound Sand," is in the hands of "Li Batian," a top expert signed by Xiao Aotian.

However, that will happen many versions later.

The locations where the two types of exotic soil are produced, the triggering methods, and the refining methods are all kept very secret.

Whether he can acquire exotic soil from Chao Bafang in the future depends on his own abilities and luck.

Pang Lao San and Chen Gu had mounts.

Chao Bafang rode the same horse as Pang Lao San, which would also keep an eye on Pang Lao San and prevent him from having any other ideas.

Of course, there are still many assassins in the Magical Beast Mountain Range searching for his whereabouts.

But Yang Shan no longer has much Dou Qi left.

The cooling-off period for the elixir has not yet arrived.

If they were to be besieged by multiple assassins again, not only would they be unable to defend Pang Lao San, but unexpected situations might also occur.

Yang Shan never thought he could defeat all his opponents unless he could increase his Dou Qi qi by another one or two thousand points. However, he was able to raise his level to Seven Star Great Fighter and obtain the rare restrictive Dou Technique "Thunder Guiding Lock".

Yang Shan's trip has already been:

Qin Shi Huang ate Sichuan peppercorns—he was numb with victory!

Know when to stop while you're ahead.

People should know how to be content! I hope the Pang Family and Chai Family can keep up their efforts and send another group of people next time! However, since the Pang Family and Chai Family suffered such heavy losses this time, the hidden opportunities may have changed.

They either have to abandon the assassination plan for now, or the family head might really have to lead the team himself.

Dou Ling expert is no joke! For every star increase, you can gain a full 15 points of Free Attribute! Plus 2 points of Meridians! Moreover, the Pang Family and Chai Family are not short of money, and both family heads are equipped with top-quality refined gear.

Yang Shan is invincible among the Da Dou Shi, but he would still have to be on edge if he encountered these two.

Therefore, we must take immediate action to change our mounts!

Numbers don't lie.

A speed of 200 points is faster than a speed of 100 points!

As long as you have a good mount, you can run away from even Dou Wang Dou Ling!

Inside the Cloud Frost Branch, looking at the "old acquaintances" being escorted by Yang Shan and Chao Bafang, Ya Fei momentarily doubted whether she was seeing things:

"The Third Elder of the Pang Family? And Elder Chen Gu, who is not of the same surname? Young Master Yang, what brings you here?"

Yang Shan smiled and said:

"I'll find you two people to act as your inside agents. As for how to control them, that's up to you, Miss Ya Fei."

Yang Shan added, "Oh, by the way, I also wiped out quite a few people from the Chai Family, including Chai Lao Er Chai Lao Si. I'm not very clear about the specific identities of the others, but you can ask Pang Lao San."

"Chai Lao Er, Chai Lao Si"

Ya Fei felt a little dizzy.

Chai Lao Si already wielded considerable power within the Chai Family, while Chai Lao Er was at the Great Fighter Peak, capable of contending with the strongest member of the Cloud Frost Branch alone.

Pang Lao San's strength is no less than that of Chai Lao Er.

As a result, one is now dead, and the other has been brought before her.

Da Dou Shi, especially high-star Da Dou Shi, are the most important top combat forces of the Pang Family and Chai Family! According to Yang Shan, the Pang Family and Chai Family have truly suffered heavy losses! And all of this is due to the young man in front of her wearing a bright red velvet robe! What she thought was a casual "investment" has led to this situation.

Yang Shan's "investment amount" truly made Ya Fei feel "overwhelmed with gratitude".

"Young Master Yang, I... I will handle this matter properly!"

Ya Fei was a smart woman; she knew that saying thank you at this moment would be too vague.

She needs to break free from the arranged marriage and gain power within the Mittel Family before she can honor Yang Shan's investment!

[Ding! Ya Fei's favorability +10, current favorability: 53. Congratulations on advancing your relationship with Ya Fei to: Best Friends!]

OK!

Pang Laosan gained ten points of favorability from Ya Fei in exchange for him—a Pang Lao San win! How Ya Fei will control Pang Lao San and Chen Gu afterward is no longer Yang Shan's concern.

With Ya Fei's methods, she will surely be able to make the most of these two.

Yang Shan: "In that case, I won't bother you any longer. I still need to catch a mount."

Ya Fei stood up:

"I'll see you off!"

Upon arriving at the branch's main entrance, Chao Bafang leaned against the wall, toying with a token in his hand.

Yang Shan: "Oh, where did you come from?"

Chao Bafang: "We got it from Master Yao! But we only have the token, not the mount."

After learning that Yang Shan was going to capture a mount, Chao Bafang specially used Master Yao's goodwill to obtain the Mount Token.

Version 1.1 is now in its mid-stage, and Mount Token are slightly easier to obtain than at the beginning of the version.

Yang Shan's Maple Leaf Colt is coveted by Chao Bafang.

How can someone who dreams of becoming a general not have a matching steed?

The saying goes, "Among men, Lü Bu; among horses, Red Hare; halberd of Fangtian, he was used to stab his adoptive father."

A halberd and a mount are both essential! "You're lucky. The mounts there are definitely top-tier, up to level five. But whether you can catch one depends on your skill."
