Chapter Eleven: The Consequences of Hero Rescuing Beauty

  Medicine Cloak (Tattered), Defense 75, Constitution +10, Usage Requirements: None.

  Tian Huo looked at the properties of the wind cloak again and looked at Yao Lao with a puzzled expression, expecting an answer from him.

  The old pharmacist sighed, "Whether it can be repaired depends on you. This cloak is a treasure of our sect, and my master gave it to me back then. Unfortunately, I'm not worthy, and accidentally damaged it like this. I hope you can repair it, and if so, I'll be very grateful."

  Tian Huo nodded heavily, and he also wanted to know what attributes the perfect Medicine Spirit Cloak would have.

  Farewell to Yao Lao, Tian Huo waited at the village chief's door, took out the Blue Spirit Blood Dan and swallowed it in one gulp.

  "Ding! System notification: Congratulations on consuming the Blue Spirit Blood Dan, permanently increasing HP by 500, MP by 300, and all four attributes by 10! This spirit dan cannot be consumed again."

  Tianhuo was overjoyed, and indeed did not disappoint himself. A single Spirit Dan increased his attributes by an amount equivalent to several levels of upgrading. Wearing the Medicine Spirit Cloak, Tianhuo eagerly opened his own attribute panel.

  The heavenly fire is dark and tongue-like, also 6th grade, the current attribute is much stronger than before, especially defense, directly from 146 to 237!

  In this way, Tian Huo felt more at ease, and once he found the tree demon, he wouldn't have to worry about getting the crystal stone.

  Creak!

  Just as they were enjoying the surprise, the door behind them opened and the village chief walked out with a delighted face, "Haha, great, great!"

  The village chief directly threw over a bottle of wine, "This time we brewed three bottles, first give you one bottle, if you want more, go and collect the white cloud grass!"

  Heavenly Fire put away the white cloud wine, rubbed his chin and said, "I'll give a bottle to the blacksmith. I definitely can't drink it myself, but if I take a sip now, my attributes will definitely increase."

  As he pondered, Tian Huo smiled mysteriously and said, "Village Chief, this bottle should be left for the blacksmith. You have two more bottles, can you let me have a sip?"

  The village head's expression turned stern, and he clutched his chest tightly. "Don't even think about it, drink your own!"

  Tian Huo didn't get angry, still smiling and said: "Village Chief, you also know how rare the White Cloud Grass is. If I drink a mouthful of it, my attributes will definitely become even stronger. At that time, won't the White Cloud Grass be within my grasp?"

  "It's all in your head! The beauty of White Cloud wine lies in its taste, not the properties you're talking about. Don't bother me!" The village chief said, quickly entering the house and slamming the door shut.

  The village head, who had been pleasant to talk to just a moment before, suddenly changed his demeanor as soon as he got the White Cloud wine.

  He shook his head and walked towards the blacksmith's shop. Maybe he could get a mouthful from the blacksmith!

  The village was just that big, and the homes of each NPC were not far apart. Tian Huo had just turned a corner when the blacksmith, who had been intently hammering away, suddenly stopped what he was doing and looked up at Tian Huo with expectation.

  Tian Huo smiled and handed a bottle of White Cloud wine to the blacksmith, "Uncle Blacksmith, you didn't disappoint me."

  The blacksmith's steady hands were shaking as he took the White Cloud Wine, his eyes gleaming with joy, "I've finally seen White Cloud Wine again!"

  "Ding! Task completed, acquired item: Blacksmith's Heirloom."

  It's just a D-level task, Tian Huo doesn't think much of it, but the three words "heirloom" still fill him with anticipation, and he quickly checks it out.

  The blacksmith's heirloom: purpose unknown, but this is indeed a treasure passed down from the blacksmith's ancestors.

  Tian Hu furrowed his brow, he had exchanged a fine wine that could increase attributes for this thing, yet its purpose was unclear?

  "Blacksmith uncle, what did your ancestors do?" Tian Huo naturally wanted to get to the bottom of it.

  The blacksmith carefully tasted a mouthful of White Cloud wine and then said with nostalgia: "Speaking of my ancestors, they were quite something!"

  Tian Huo's eyes lit up, "What's going on?"

  "My ancestors were great blacksmiths!" The blacksmith said with reverence.

  The corner of the blacksmith's mouth twitched slightly, but this time, he continued to say: "Because my ancestors came from a great sect, when it comes to that sect, it's even more extraordinary. That is one of the top sects on the mainland of Tianming, if I can enter it, I will definitely become a higher-level artifact refiner than the blacksmith!"

  Upon hearing this, Tian Huo didn't bother looking at the so-called family heirloom again. Where did this thing come from? Wasn't it from the mouth of a blacksmith in a large sect?

  "Actually, I shouldn't say more, little brother, is there anything else?" The blacksmith's tone changed and returned to normal.

  Tian Huo cleared his throat and said, "Uncle Blacksmith, I'd like to discuss something with you. How about this? You let me have a drink of your White Cloud wine, and another day I'll send you a bottle."

  The blacksmith looked at Tian Huo with a suspicious gaze, seemingly choosing whether or not to believe him. After a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said, "Is this true?"

  Tian Huo nodded his head and smiled: "That's natural, is Ironsmith Uncle afraid I'll run away?"

  The blacksmith gritted his teeth again and handed over the wine bottle, "Just a small mouthful, don't drink too much!"

  Heavenly fire great joy, a mouthful of white cloud wine entered, indeed, the system prompt sound rang out:

  "Ding! Congratulations, player Tianhuo has consumed White Cloud Wine, with all four attributes +4. Consuming any other items related to White Cloud Grass will be ineffective."

  Tian Huo was taken aback, so that means his plan to eat a White Cloud Grass had been ruined?

  While pondering, the blacksmith had already snatched away the White Cloud Wine. "You didn't kill the Qingling Snake King, did you? Don't tell me you didn't get its fangs; hand them over and I'll help you out."

  These NPCs are indeed not easy to deal with, they can actually detect something on their own bodies. However, Tian Huo didn't worry and happily said: "Uncle Blacksmith, how can you help me?"

  The blacksmith rubbed his chin, "The Snake King's fangs are good stuff, I can help you inlay them into your weapon."

  Tian Huo was stunned, and he could only use his novice sword!

  At that moment when Huo Mo took out his new sword, the blacksmith's face turned ugly. "Don't you have a weapon that can be used?"

  Tian Huo smiled awkwardly, "I also can't help it, after all, the equipment I can use isn't easy to obtain."

  The blacksmith shook his head, "Forget it, at worst I'll just waste some ore."

  He said, taking over the Snake King's fang and new sword, starting to compare them, finally fixing his gaze on the hilt, nodding in satisfaction, "Wait a moment."

  The heavens fire expected to nod, but saw the blacksmith had already begun to merge some strange ore into the new sword, and then placed it on the iron mat to hammer.

  A moment later, a new sword with almost no changes fell into Tianhuo's hands, only two one-inch-long hand guards were added to the hilt. Tianhuo glanced at the blacksmith before looking at the attributes of the new sword.

  Newbie Sword (Bronze), Physical Attack 30-60, Magical Attack 10-40, 10% chance to poison enemy on hit, ignoring defense and dealing 60% of target's max HP as damage per second for 10 seconds. Usage Requirement: None.

  Looking at the attributes of the new sword, Tian Huo swallowed his saliva, he only had book attack, the algorithm was physical attack plus magic attack, and then multiplied by 75%, in this way, the book attack of this sword was 30-75, and most importantly, that poison damage!

  As long as the enemy is poisoned, the damage per second will be 60% of the total attack power of Tianhuo!

  However, Tian Huo's face suddenly changed, this poisonous attribute must be triggered when cutting monsters, but himself, can't directly go up and cut monsters, but is verbal!

  "What a scam! I got all worked up for nothing!" Tian Huo sighed as he equipped his new sword.

  But then he thought about it and Tian Huo became excited again, "The 30-75 book attack is very strong!"

  HP：2825/2825

  MP：725/725

  Book of Attacks: 285-335

  Defense: 245

  Strength: 85, Constitution: 95, Intelligence: 85, Agility: 85

  After drinking the White Cloud Wine, and equipping the new hand sword, the attributes of Tian Huo increased significantly once again. This also made Tian Huo realize that in "Tian Ming World", levels weren't everything, as there were still many ways to increase one's attributes, and there must be even more powerful spiritual elixirs and equipment!

  But if the level doesn't go up, everything is empty talk. After all, the higher the equipment, the more attributes are added.

  At this moment, his attributes were much stronger than when he went down the mountain, making Tian Huo full of confidence. He bid farewell to Tiejiang and excitedly ran towards Baiyun Mountain.

  Just arrived at the foot of the mountain, in the Qingling Snake area, Tianhuo suddenly frowned, and there were still many players leveling up here. However, no one asked about what was happening in front of them!

  All that can be seen is a girl wearing new gloves surrounded by five young men, although due to the system's protection of women, those five people did not dare to take action, but the girl also cannot leave, and is now panicked and covering her chest with both hands, afraid that the five people will make some unusual move.

  But the girl was none other than Chuchu herself, whom he had leveled up with before!

  Tian Huo shook his head, although this was a game, everything felt like a true reflection in his mind. Tian Huo wouldn't just stand by and watch something like this happen, so he hastily stepped forward and shouted: "Let her go!"

  Upon hearing this, all five of them looked towards Tian Huo, who raised an eyebrow and said, "Eight Blades Frenzy, it's you bunch of bastards again!"

  That's right, the five people surrounding Chuchu were indeed from the Eight Blades family, and the leader was none other than Eight Blades Frenzy!

  Tian Huo was slightly puzzled. Although the reputation of the Eight Slashes family wasn't great, Eight Slashes Crazy didn't seem like the kind of person to do something like this. However, the current situation already explained everything.

  The faces of the eight knives changed, seemingly because they did not expect to meet Tianhuo here. They hastily gave way to Chuchu, who was overjoyed and rushed towards Tianhuo, hiding behind him. "Thank you, Brother Tianhuo!"

  Tian Huo was just about to speak when a chill ran down his back, followed by a sharp pain, and a large "-1" appeared above his head.

  "Ding! Player Tian Huo, be advised that the team of Ba Dao Kuang is launching an attack on you. You have three minutes to defend yourself!"

  The sound of the system prompt made Tian Huo's heart turn cold, and Chu Chu was actually in cahoots with the people of the Ba Dao family!
