Chapter 293 Secret Realm Puppet; Push all the way!
[Xuan Lian Zong: Once the top power in the northwest continent, it has inherited extremely exquisite martial arts and casting skills. In its heyday, there were six Dou Zong masters in the sect. 1125 years ago, the eighth generation leader Tao Ye had a mortal feud with a mysterious Dou Zun, who promised to let Tao Ye leave the sect's inheritance, and then killed all the high-level leaders of Xuan Lian Zong, and the disciples fled in all directions.]

[Players please note: You have entered the Xuanlian Sect Heritage Site. The site is a large secret realm, divided into five floors, with more than 5,000 "treasure points" set up on each floor. You need to pass the treasure trial to obtain the corresponding treasure. Metal puppets with "ruin keys" will appear from time to time on each floor of the site. Defeat the puppets to enter the next floor. ]

[After all relics are obtained, the secret realm will be closed. Before the secret realm is closed, after the player dies, each relic owned by the player will have a 50% chance of dropping; this rule is also valid outside the ruins. ]

[Warm reminder from Tianyao official chief planner Xiao Yan: 40% of Xuanlian Sect's core secrets are located on the fifth floor. The remaining 60% are randomly distributed on the other four floors. Please don't give up just because you are not strong enough. Opportunities are always reserved for those who are determined and don't give up. I wish you a happy game. ]

Generally speaking, large secret realms are designed as independent spaces because they need to accommodate too many players.

The entrance to the Xuanlian Sect ruins is just a building.

However, the area occupied by each of the five floors described by the system is difficult to estimate.

Just like now, Yang Shan, Su Yitong, Chao Bafang and Zhu Tianpeng entered the first floor together, and they saw a large building complex similar to the inner courtyard of Canaan College built in the valley between two mountains!
Towards Bafang: "Oh my god, this is comparable to half of the Yunlan Sect!"

Zhu Tianpeng was like a wise man in deep thought, stroking his chin as he analyzed:

"It seems that the secret treasures of the first level are all in the buildings in the valley. What about us? Wait for me!"

Yang Shan: "Stop talking nonsense. Aren't you in the building complex, right under our feet?"

Seeing that the three had already flown far away, Zhu Tianpeng quickly activated his fighting spirit and transformed it into wings to catch up with them.

Arriving above the building complex, Yang Shan took out a rusty long knife from his ring.

At this moment, the name of the rusty long sword has a suffix - Xuanlian Sect's token.

A new item has been added to the item description:
Get close to the relic and the token will react differently depending on how precious the relic is!
Yang Shan: "The first level shouldn't be too difficult. We don't need to act collectively. We can rely on our luck individually. Keep the group chat on and keep communicating at all times!"

He raised his rusty spear in all directions and stabbed it into the ground:

"kill!"

Zhu Tianpeng taunted:

"You are really so simple-minded that you only know how to shout and kill. Baby, here I come!"

Zhu Tianpeng is not much better. If you don’t know him, you would think he is having a tryst with his lover in the middle of the night!

Su Yitong flew to Yang Shan and blinked sincerely:
"Boss, do you really not need me to follow you?"

Yang Shan: "Then you follow me."

Su Yitang: “.”

Yang Shan pretended to land on the ground and urged:
"Come on, keep up."

Su Yitong felt sad:
"Ah! I was just being polite. The boss tricked me again."

But Yang Shan did not let her act alone, so Su Yitong had no choice but to follow.

Along the way, Su Yitong kept blaming herself.

Why do you flirt with your boss for no reason?
Wouldn't it be nice to just go look for the treasure?
Yang Shan seems to have good luck today.

As soon as it landed in front of a small house, the rusty long knife in Yang Shan's hand began to tremble slightly.

Yang Shan walked to another small house not far away, and the rusty long sword returned to calm.

Yang Shan: "Little money-grubber, go to that house by yourself, there should be some good stuff there. I'll go look somewhere else."

"Eh?"

Su Yitong's eyes lit up: "Really? This is so embarrassing."

"Stop pretending, little money-grubber. Hurry up. One minute has already passed. There are still nine minutes left!"

"Thank you, boss! Long live the boss!"

Su Yitong immediately rushed to the small room that could trigger the token reaction.

There is only one trial in the small house.

In many tall buildings, there are trials in every room.

Relying on his fast speed, Yang Shan went around three high-rise buildings at once, recorded every room that triggered a reaction of the token, and also scored the reaction of the token.

Finally, the room with the highest token reaction score was selected.

Yang Shan also told this method to three employees through group voice chat.

Towards all directions: "Damn it! Only a great god can find a way!"

Zhu Tianpeng: "I, Zhu Tianpeng's grandmother, am not convinced, only Brother Yang! This idea is too brilliant!"

For top masters, ordinary relics are no longer worth their attention.

Yang Shan's method might reduce the number of relics they obtain, but it can ensure that each relic has a relatively high value.

This is why Yang Shan had to go to great lengths to defeat Yue Mei!
The benefits of having a token in hand are fully demonstrated at this moment!

Yang Shan was a man of great skill and courage. He didn't even open his fighting armor. He just kicked open the door and entered the room where the token had the biggest reaction.

From the outside, the room looks like a single apartment, about 40 to 50 square meters.

But once you enter it, your vision immediately begins to ripple.

When the ripples calmed down, the room had expanded to 500 square meters.

The floor is more than two meters high.

There is no furniture in such a large space.

The only thing was that in the center, there was a humanoid puppet that seemed to be made of brass, sitting on a chair.

At this moment, Su Yitong's voice came from the group chat:

"In that house just now, the opponent in the trial was a metal puppet, but it was only at the one-star Dou Wang level, and it had no fighting skills, and couldn't use Dou Qi, so its durability was relatively high."

Towards all directions: "What good things did Miss Su get?"

Su Yitang: "The Xuan-level intermediate fighting skill with purple characters is just so-so."

Zhu Tianpeng: "That must be one thousand yuan."

Doupo has entered its second year of operation. From version 1.0 to 2.0, nearly five years have passed in the game.

Players in the first tier can almost be self-sufficient in the game by relying on themselves.

And now, all major forces have also opened up higher-level secret book contribution exchanges.

The highest standard exchange secret book of the Snake People has even been upgraded to the low level of the Earth Rank!

Not to mention the Yunlan Sect, even the major first-class forces in the Black Horn Region are not so arrogant.
This has resulted in low-level Xuan-grade fighting skills with blue characters becoming commonplace on the street.

It must be printed in purple to be sold at a high price.

It is foreseeable that in the second year of Doupo's operation, the price of Xuan-level secret books will continue to fall like the spirit stones in the first year.

Unless it is a Xuan-level fighting skill with golden characters, even if it reaches the level of Dou Wang or Dou Huang, it can be used as the main fighting skill to maintain a relatively strong price.

However, the high-level Xuan-grade fighting skills with golden characters are often more difficult to obtain than the low-level Earth-grade fighting skills.

Of course, the "Ba Dao" in Yang Shan's hand, and Xiao Aotian's "Ba Ji Collapse" and "Lion and Tiger Broken Gold Chant" are all the best among the golden seals. Ordinary golden seals are slightly inferior.

But even so, whenever Yang Shan encounters this kind of secret book, he will definitely give priority to internal consumption!
As Su Yitong showed off, the brass puppet sitting in the middle of Yang Shan's trial house also began to react.

Its eyes seemed to be embedded with magic cores and began to emit a strange red light.

[Brass Puppet] (Special Combat Power Item)

Battle strength standard: Three-star fighting king

Durability: 45000
Attack: 1500
Defense: 1250
Speed: 330
Introduction: Puppets are a fusion of weapon refining techniques and array seal techniques. They are not afraid of death, but because they only have basic thinking logic, ordinary puppets cannot use fighting spirit and can only attack with fists and feet.

In the original novel, the protagonist Xiao Yan also acquired a puppet-making technique called "Heavenly Demon Puppet".

Looking at all the contents of the original novel, the puppets were basically all aids refined by Xiao Yan, and other forces almost never had them.

Only once in the Dou Sheng Ruins did Xiao Yan encounter other puppets.

Tianyao Company is well aware of how popular the alchemy secondary profession will be.

Therefore, in order to balance the gap between the secondary professions, Tianyao Company simply changed the puppet settings of the original work.

Change the puppet refining technique into a combination of weapon refining technique and array seal technique.

Simply put, to refine a puppet, one needs to use refining techniques to refine the puppet's body, and then a formation seal master is needed to use different magic cores to engrave formation seals on the puppet's body, so as to use the power of the magic core to drive the puppet to move.

Puppetry skills only started to become popular among players around version 3.0.

After the puppet technique became popular, many players used it as a "meat shield" to resist the frontal attacks of Warcraft.

And you can attack from the side.

However, puppets are very expensive to make, and high-level puppets are also difficult to make.

Most players can only buy one or two units with relatively low combat power, which can block a few attacks at critical moments and may give them a chance to escape or reverse the situation.

Therefore, even in version 3.2 of the previous life, puppets still appeared more frequently in various secret realms, serving as the treasure guardians of the secret realms.

Just like the one in front of you.

The puppet's durability is its health. Although its combat power standard is only three-star Dou Wang, the panel of this puppet is even higher than that of the NPC with purple characters of the same level!
The "health volume" is twice that of NPCs of the same level!
The panel looks very intimidating, but it is useless!
Ka Ka Ka Ka
Whenever the brass puppet moved, it made a sound similar to the friction of rusty machinery.

Yang Shan thought the voice was not very pleasant.

So he drew out the Bloody Roar Blade and instantly went behind the brass puppet.

Ding ding ding ding
This is the sound of Blood Howl chopping at the brass puppet!
This is the sound of a booby trap exploding on metal.

This sound is so comfortable to listen to!
The durability of the brass puppet was dropping madly at a rate of more than five thousand points per second.

The brass puppet was probably quite old, and its initial startup was slow, so it took five seconds to go from a sitting position to a standing position.

Then the brass puppet clenched his fists, turned around, and prepared to give Yang Shan a heavy punch.

But just as the fist was about to hit, the red light in the brass puppet's eyes completely went out, and it fell apart with a snap.

The parts were scattered all over the floor, and Yang Shan even doubted that he could put them back to their original state!
The Brass Golem only did two things from the time it was initially launched.

Stand up and raise your hands.

Then it was gone.

"Is it because this is the first large secret realm that the players need to face the puppet, so the initial startup of the puppet is so slow?"

The parts on the ground turned into white light and disappeared.

Only a fist-sized piece of blue metal was left.

[Blue Water Black Iron: Fifth-level precious metal material]

Yang Shan: "Oh, is my luck good or bad?"

Metal materials are definitely the lowest value in the same level in the current player market.

For fifth-grade materials, at least a fifth-grade refiner is needed to bring out the characteristics of the material.

But there are only a few fifth-grade weapon refiners in the entire Jia Ma Empire!

They basically live in seclusion in deep mountains and forests. If players want them to take action, if they do not have enough favorability, they can only spend a lot of contributions to let the top leaders of the force come forward.

The complexity of this process makes most players give up and instead try to find ways to get finished equipment.

If any other player got this Blue Water Mystic Iron, they would be really "unlucky" as it is far inferior to the intermediate Mystic Grade Fighting Skill that Su Yitong had obtained before.

Only giving it to Yang Shan will not be a loss.

Because Yang Shan has the best weapon refiner in the current version under his command—Grandpa Tieyang!
Old man Tieyang is now a genuine fifth-grade high-level weapon refiner.

Create top-quality equipment, and if used well, you can upgrade the word print to purple!

Yang Shan immediately said in the group chat:
"Remember to sell all the casting materials you get to Grandpa Tieyang."

Zhu Tianpeng: "Master, don't worry, I will sell it to you at a 30% discount and wait for Mr. Tieyang to break through to the sixth rank, hehe."

Towards all directions: “Hey hey.”

Su Yitang: "Hehe."

Yang Shan: "You are a bunch of weirdos. I am impressed by you!"

Theoretically, a sixth-grade equipment refiner can create spiritual-level equipment!
You know, the spiritual-level equipment that appears on the rankings now, including weapons and armor, totals less than sixty pieces!
There are only twelve of them, and they are printed with purple characters.

The only golden characters are Yang Shan’s Blood Roar Knife and Su Yitong’s Fenggeqin.

As soon as Yang Shangang walked out of the room, he saw a uniquely shaped brass puppet walking swaggeringly on the street downstairs.

This brass puppet has four arms and a key embedded in the center of its forehead.

In front of the brass puppet, Chao Bafang was already holding up his halberd and said domineeringly:
"On your forehead is the key to the second floor, right? I see it's not easy for you to survive until now. Hand over the key and I will spare your life!"

Zhu Tianpeng appeared behind the four-armed brass puppet and shouted:

"Your uncle's General Syndrome is acting up again, right? Be careful! This Seven-Star Fighting King has a durability of over 80,000. I'm going to fight him!"

He danced the halberd three times in all directions:

"What are you afraid of? What's the point of having a high face plate for a puppet that can't even use its fighting spirit? I'll fight him for three hundred rounds. If I can't defeat him, I'll kill myself on the spot!"

Just as the two were talking, ten scarlet finger energies shot out from the second floor of a building not far away.

With a series of clanging and popping sounds, the durability of the four-armed puppet was reduced to nearly 40,000 points in just one breath!

The four-armed puppet had just reacted when Yang Shan had already circled behind it.

The Blood Roaring Knife swung upward and accurately hit the crotch of the four-armed puppet.

Chao Bafang subconsciously squeezed his buttocks together.

When he was just starting out, his chrysanthemums were destroyed many times, leaving him with psychological trauma.
Yang Shan's powerful upward strike sent the four-armed puppet flying into the air.

Since it cannot use fighting spirit and does not have wings, this four-armed puppet cannot fly even though its combat power is that of a seven-star fighting king.

Therefore, when in the air, the threat of the four-armed puppet will be greatly weakened.

Chao Bafang and Zhu Tianpeng only saw Yang Shan's figure running back and forth in the air, and the four-armed puppet was tossed back and forth by Yang Shan with the Blood Roar Knife like a dish in a spoon.

In less than twenty seconds, the four-armed puppet fell apart in mid-air.

Yang Shan landed on the ground and raised his hand. The key that was originally embedded in the forehead of the four-armed puppet fell accurately into his palm.

Yang Shan said calmly:
"Do you understand?"

He swallowed his saliva and said:

"Oh my god! Master, I can't learn it!"

Yang Shan: "You can't even learn something as simple as flipping the spoon in the air?"

To Bafang: "No, you killed this four-armed puppet in twenty seconds. I can't learn it."

Zhu Tianpeng: "Brother Yang, why don't you teach me how I made the key fall into my hand in the end? You didn't even look at it! If I use this trick to pick up girls in the future, won't I attract a bunch of little fans?"

Zhu Tianpeng actually hit upon a key point.

The action of raising his hand to take the key was indeed used to attract the girl's attention.

Yang Shan knew that Su Yitong was peeking at him from a tall building at the end of the street, but he just pretended not to see it!

so.
Su Yitong, who was on a tall building, held up a telescope and saw Yang Shan's finishing moves:

"It's over, it's over. How can you be so handsome? The boss will definitely have more and more little fans in the future, but please don't have too many girls like Yu Feifei, um."

Yang Shan smiled and said, "You can use this method later. Just consider it as my reward for robbing the monster."

Towards Bafang: "Master, you are really being polite by saying that!"

Zhu Tianpeng: "That's right, when we get the key, we will definitely give it to you, Brother Yang, first to go to the second floor!"

Yang Shan: "Okay, that's it, hurry up, four minutes have passed, I'll go to the second floor to clear the way for you!"

The key in Yang Shan's hand slowly disappeared.

Yang Shan's figure also glowed white.

The next moment, Yang Shan arrived at a mountain similar to the first level.

Looking down, there is also a large complex of buildings in the valley.

However, the layout of this complex is completely different from that of the first floor.

[Ding! Players, please note that you have arrived at the second floor of the Xuanlian Sect Ruins. The strength of the treasure trial will be increased. ]

Yang Shan did not stop for a moment, and used his fighting spirit to transform into wings and flew towards the valley.

For the only player in the entire server who has fought ten thousand times, the only impact of the increased strength of the second level of the Xuanlian Sect ruins is that he needs to make a few more attacks.

If he really fails at the second level, Yang Shan, the number one player in Doupo, will become a joke.

This second level is still a direct push!

Yang Shan fell into the valley and began to move back and forth among the buildings in the valley according to the previous method.

Then we chose a low building that would generate the greatest response to the token.

He raised his foot and kicked the ball violently into the goal.

There is still a brass puppet in the room, but the combat power standard is displayed as:

Five-star fighting king.

Yang Shan drew out the Bloody Roar Knife and rushed forward.

The brass puppet's eyes glowed red.

The brass puppet began to stand up.

The brass puppet stood up straight.

The brass puppet raised its hand.

The parts of the brass puppet were scattered all over the floor.
　Zhu Tianpeng and Chao Bafang called Yang Shan "Boss" because they originally wanted to unify the name when more players signed contracts in the future.

　　But I feel awkward when I write it today.

　　On second thought, the way they each addressed Yang Shan was actually a reflection of their own personalities.

　　So I slightly changed the content of the previous chapter.

　　From then on, Zhu Tianpeng still called him "Brother Yang" and shouted "Great God" to all directions.
