Chapter 497: Lei Zun's Position; Soul Breakthrough

Fei Tian became interested:

"Oh? Young Pavilion Master, the resources in Wanshe Gorge are quite good, and there is also a small spiritual vein. Later, our North Pavilion will mobilize a large number of manpower to develop and protect it. You don't need to pay anything, and you can get 15% of it. As long as the spiritual veins in Wanshe Gorge are not over-exploited, the output of spiritual plants can be maintained for one or two hundred years. Do you really want to sell it?"

Yang Shan: "The main reason is that I am too lazy to wait. Besides, if I stay in the North Pavilion, I will inevitably have trouble with the Fourth Pavilion Master in the future. I can't always be so shameless and let the Fourth Pavilion Master work for nothing."

Fei Tian: "Hey! Young Pavilion Master, you are too kind. Since you want to sell it, what should I offer?"

Yang Shan: "Seventh-level spiritual object!"

"hiss"

Fei Tian's face was a little stiff:

"Seventh-rank spiritual object? Young Pavilion Master doesn't want anything else?"

Yang Shan: "Three Thousand Thunder Illusions can also be used."

Fei Tian was even more embarrassed now:

"Young Pavilion Master, I really cannot make the decision on the inheritance of the Three Thousand Thunder Illusionary Bodies."

Yang Shan: "It should be a seventh-level spiritual object."

Fei Tian said sincerely:

"Young Pavilion Master, to be honest, only the East Pavilion has a reserve of seventh-level spiritual objects now."

Yang Shan was surprised: "The fourth pavilion master doesn't have any?"

Fei Tian smiled bitterly:

"Young Pavilion Master, that is a seventh-level spiritual object! It is extremely important for Dou Zong masters. To be honest, I have been staying in the Eight-Star Dou Zong for twenty years. Now I am saving contribution points. I want to exchange it for a seventh-level rare and potential spiritual object from the Pavilion Master to speed up my breakthrough."

Yang Shan fell silent.

To be honest, he still underestimated the difficulty of obtaining seventh-level spiritual objects at the current stage.

The "Four Sided Pavilions" ranked among the first-rate forces each have only one Dou Zun in charge.

The "Three Valleys" of top-notch forces also have only two Dou Zun.

The Dou Zong masters are the absolute high-end combat forces in the Three Valleys and Four Square Pavilions.

If placed in second- or third-rate forces, Dou Zong masters would be the backbone.

Therefore, although Zhongzhou has abundant resources and a high upper limit, the demand is also far greater than that of the Northwestern Continent.

Especially now that Zhongzhou is still in an unopened state and there are not a large number of players settling in, most of Zhongzhou’s resources will be consumed internally first.

Take Fei Tian for example, his maximum speed potential may have just reached Dou Zong. To reach the eight-star Dou Zong, he must have consumed a lot of seventh-level spiritual objects!

The one with the most say in Fenglei Pavilion is Venerable Lei. Items like seventh-level spiritual objects are definitely the most precious consumable materials, and are also one of the main means for Venerable Lei to control power.

With a seventh-level spiritual object in hand, there is no need to worry about others not working hard or having ulterior motives.

In addition, the rules of the game are also important.

Xiao Aotian is now stuck at the Nine-Star Douhuang level, trying hard to find rare and precious spiritual objects to break through his supreme foundation.

Su Yitong does have some rare and precious items, but because her level has slowed down, she is still frantically gaining experience.

The output of seventh-level spiritual objects in Zhongzhou is definitely far greater than that in the Northwestern Continent.

But this doesn’t mean that once you come to Zhongzhou, you can take any seventh-level spiritual object you want!
Zhongzhou gave Yang Shan more opportunities and channels to obtain seventh-level spiritual objects, but the difficulty of obtaining them might be even higher than in the Black Horn Region!
Thinking back carefully, most of the seventh-level spiritual objects in Yang Shan's hands came from the Ba Dao Secret Realm. He was facing the three major families and Wang Chen from the Huangquan Pavilion.

If Yang Shan’s own combat power was not so strong, he would definitely have been in a tough battle in the Ba Dao Secret Realm.

Yang Shan also reasonably suspected that AI Nuwa was still regulating.

After all, as the Young Pavilion Master, he was destined to be on the opposite side of Lei Zun and Feng Qing'er.

Yang Shan said:

"In that case, Fourth Pavilion Master, please take me to the top of Beilei Tower. I want to talk to the Pavilion Master."

Fei Tian: "Okay, come on, Young Master, this way please!"

Soon, Fei Tian brought Yang Shan to the top floor.

After the image of Lei Zun appeared, Yang Shan briefly explained the situation to Lei Zun.

"I see. Indeed, since young friend Yang Shan was accepted as a disciple by the Grandmaster, his talent must be one in a million. If you wait for the Ten Thousand Snakes Gorge to slowly produce talents, I'm afraid it won't be of much use to you."

Lei Zun's attitude towards Yang Shan has always been good, at least on the surface. He patiently explained to Yang Shan:
"But my dear friend Yang Shan, all the seventh-level spiritual objects I have stored here have been exchanged by my disciple, Feng Qing'er."

Yang Shan: "What? They were all replaced?"

Venerable Lei nodded, then coughed twice:

"Feitian, please step aside for a moment."

"Yes, Master. Young Master, I will take my leave now!"

After Fei Tian left the hall and closed the door, Venerable Lei showed a somewhat distressed look:

“Young friend Yang Shan, to be honest, before I broke through to the Dou Zun realm, I once went to a ruin. By chance, I met an elder of the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan. With the help of that elder, I obtained a spiritual object that could help me break through to the Dou Zun realm.”

"Feng Qing'er is one of the new generation of geniuses of the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan. The elder sent her away from the clan to gain experience, so she was arranged to be my personal disciple."

Speaking of this, Lei Zun said helplessly:

"Friend Yang Shan, the foundation of the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan is much deeper than that of our Fenglei Pavilion. Even I cannot afford to offend them."

Yang Shan said disdainfully:
"It's just the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan. Master, when my master comes back, the Sky Demon Phoenix Clan will have to take the initiative to send envoys to visit!"

Lei Zunzun: "But now the Grandmaster hasn't come back yet. Feng Qing'er also uses contribution points to exchange for spiritual objects without giving any discount. I really can't refuse."

At this point, Lei Zun lowered his voice:
"But I still secretly left a rare seventh-level spiritual item for you, Yang Shan. How about this? You don't have to sell your share of the Ten Thousand Snake Gorge. I'll count it as your contribution. I'll give you this seventh-level spiritual item first. As for the contribution points, I'll slowly deduct them from your share later. This way, you don't have to sell it at a low price."

Yang Shan nodded: "It's all up to you, Pavilion Master!"

Hearing what Yang Shan said, Lei Zun said with a smile:
"Thank you for your understanding, Young Friend Yang Shan. I will send someone to deliver this seventh-level spiritual object to the North Pavilion. If Feng Qing'er asks about it, I will say that I just got it from another resource point and you replaced it. Young Friend Yang Shan, please don't let it slip!"

Yang Shan: "I understand. Thank you for your help, Master."

"Hey, Young Friend Yang Shan, you are too kind. This is what I should do. If I neglect you, I will not be able to take responsibility when the Grand Master asks about it in the future. Haha! Young Friend Yang Shan, I have some things to take care of here, or..."

"Master, please do as you please!"

After the image of Lord Lei disappeared, Yang Shan looked at the favorability list again.

The favorability of Lei Zun is still only two points. Yang Shan has recorded the conversation with Lei Zun just now, and used AI software to convert the conversation into text.

Then Yang Shan took out the text version of his previous conversation with Feng Qing'er for comparison.

From the moment he saw Xiao Li, the second brother of Xiao Yan in the original novel, appearing from the space crack, and the "Xiao clan" he mentioned all the time, to the fact that the ranking of "one palace and one tower" in the original novel was changed to "one tower and one palace".

Yang Shan had no doubt that the background and story of Zhongzhou in the game, as well as the relationships between forces and characters, were much more complicated than the original work.

After all, the original work is based on the protagonist's perspective, and the situation of the entire Zhongzhou cannot be fully displayed.

Therefore, when Yang Shan sets foot in Zhongzhou this time, he will definitely not rely on the original story for analysis.

He needed to collect and sort out a lot of information again.

For example, the relationship between Fenglei Pavilion and the Tianyao Phoenix Clan.

The answers given by Lei Zun and Feng Qing'er seemed to be too different.

As for who to trust, Yang Shan had almost no hesitation.

He chose to believe Feng Qing'er!
Compared to Venerable Lei who has lived for hundreds of years, Feng Qing'er is much more likely to tell the truth in terms of age, experience, and character.

And in Yang Shan's view, Lei Zun's words were more like shifting his attention to Feng Qing'er!

"On one side is the founder of the Dou Sheng, who we don't know if he has died or not, and on the other side is the Tian Yao Huang Clan, with whom we have already started to cooperate deeply. Venerable Lei is caught in the middle. He is trying to smooth things over and not offend either side!"

If not for this, there would be no need for Venerable Lei to deliberately take out another seventh-level foundation spiritual object.

As for the share from Wanshe Gorge, it is unknown how long it will take once the contribution points of this seventh-level foundation spiritual creature are deducted.

"Tsk, trouble!"

Yang Shan left the hall and asked Fei Tian to arrange a place for him where he would not be disturbed as he wanted to go into seclusion.

In Doupo, all troubles are caused by lack of strength.

Not to mention Dou Zun, as long as Yang Shan has the ability to escape unscathed from Lei Zun, he can start to "govern" Fenglei Pavilion immediately!

Yang Shan decided to change his thinking.

There is no future in fighting to the death in Fenglei Pavilion. Even if Feng Qing'er is killed quietly, the Tianyao Phoenix Clan will probably send people again.

On the Fenglei Pavilion side, in addition to "governance", Yang Shan also has something he must obtain, which is the "Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body".

The advanced Xuan-level "Xuan Ling Shen" has brought a lot of help to Yang Shan. As for the "Three Thousand Thunder Illusion Body" which is comparable to the heaven-level fighting skills, according to the description in the original book, the combat power of the clone can be close to that of the original body!

But according to Fei Tian, ​​if you want to obtain the "Three Thousand Thunder Illusionary Body", you have to wait for the Four-Party Pavilion Conference.

There is still a long time before the Sifang Pavilion Conference is held.

In that case, Yang Shan prepared to leave Fenglei Pavilion first.

If there is no clue about Xiao Xun'er, then Yang Shan can still start from the Soul Palace!

There is no news from the Soul Palace branch. The worst that can happen is that I can just go back to the Guiku branch!
But before that, Yang Shan wanted to improve his spiritual power further.

The monsters in the poison barrier of Wanshe Gorge, as well as Yanmei, who was greedy and wanted to swallow an elephant, successfully filled the high-level soul-containing bead in Yang Shan's hand.

As Yang Shan went offline to rest, when he came back online, 500,000 pure soul energy had already turned into Yang Shan's experience.

[Ding! Players, please note that your soul power training has been completed. ]

[After staying in the middle stage of the spiritual realm for a long time, your soul seems to have undergone new changes. You have realized something in your heart, which has given your soul the potential to go further. Now, it only lacks an opportunity. ]

[You took out the "High-level Soul-retaining Orb" from the storage ring. The pure soul energy contained in it is like the most delicious delicacy in the world, making your soul hungry and thirsty.]

[You are a rare genius in cultivation. Now you have all the potential and opportunities. The great way is right before your eyes. Why would you retreat? ]

[The soul bead is in your palm. You calmly close your five fingers and refine 500,000 pure soul energies in an instant!]

[Your current soul power strength is: Late Spirit Realm! ]

[You have used the "Na Yuan Soul Technique" to its full potential. With your unfathomable financial support, every "1" point of your pure soul energy has been increased to "1.2"! The mountains of spirit stones (two million pieces) in your Na Ring disappeared in an instant, and you have gained 100000 more pure soul energy! ]

[The comparison between your current soul power reserve and the amount required to break through to the Great Perfection of the Spiritual Realm is: (171922/2000000).]

[Because your soul power is too strong, the difficulty of refining elixirs below the eighth grade has been greatly reduced! And your soul power has reached the standard for refining eighth-grade elixirs. ]

Yang Shan felt a little distressed when he saw that his spirit stone balance had shrunk from 205 million to 5.

The output of spirit stones is now relatively stable. On the trading floor, 1 dollar can be exchanged for 50 spirit stones.

But two million spirit stones are equivalent to 40,000 RMB.

After practicing for a while, I lost 40,000 RMB. If I spent it on Yafei,
But when I thought about the fact that these 40,000 yuan were exchanged for 100,000 pure souls, which is equivalent to 1 million soul points.

This is equivalent to spending money to buy time.

After breaking into the late spiritual realm, in theory, Yang Shan only needed to get a recipe for a seventh-grade elixir and successfully refine the elixir to become a seventh-grade alchemist.

But Yang Shan did not intend to make a random seventh-grade recovery pill recipe.

There is a special design for breaking into the seventh-grade alchemist.

The seventh-grade alchemist is divided into three sub-levels: "primary, intermediate and advanced", corresponding to the seventh-grade ordinary elixir, the seventh-grade intermediate elixir and the seventh-grade advanced elixir. (This is also the case in the original book)
Small-scale improvements can be achieved simply by relying on the experience points accumulated from refining medicine.

But if you break into the seventh level and directly refine seventh-level high-level elixirs, you can directly fill up the corresponding experience bar and become a seventh-level high-level alchemist!

With his current soul power in the late spiritual realm and the Sea Heart Flame as the fire for alchemy, all he needs to do is to get a more powerful medicine cauldron. Not to mention a high-level seventh-grade one, at least a mid-level seventh-grade one should be a piece of cake!
Yang Shan had no intention of giving up on alchemy.

It's not just because of making money, but also because Yang Shan has considered creating an even more powerful strange fire!

After all, Yang Shan’s current “reserve hidden spiritual roots” have exceeded one hundred points, and he is determined to obtain the Beiluo Seven-Star Thunder, which is ranked ninth on the Strange Thunder List.

If the strange fires originally written in the original work did not change, then among the top ten strange fires, only four of them were "ownerless".

The number one ranked "Emperor Yan" also has another name called "Tuoshe Gudi"!
The second ranked one is Xuwu Tunyan, who is a nine-star Dousheng in the original book!
The third-ranked Pure Lotus Demon Fire is the king in the Demon Fire Space, but Yang Shan has no information about the four "Ancient Demon Fire Maps". In the original book, one each appeared in Shimo City and Black Horn Region, but they have not been revealed yet.

Yang Shan seriously suspected that Tianyao Company had cancelled the designs of the four "Ancient Demon Fire Pictures"!

Next, the last kind of ownerless strange fire is the "Three Thousand Flames" sealed in Danta, which ranks ninth on the strange fire list.

The "Alchemy Conference" held by Danta is the highest-level ceremony for alchemists in the Douqi Continent. If one enters the top ten in the alchemy competition of the Alchemy Conference, he will have the opportunity to subdue the Three Thousand Flames.

Yang Shan didn’t know what would happen if he had double strange thunder and double strange fire in his body at the same time, and what the requirements would be.

But the road is already under our feet.

As long as there is no dead end ahead, Yang Shan will definitely charge forward!
