24: The number one purple weapon in the entire server

--"(Ding-dong!)"

"(Your inventory space is insufficient to accommodate more items.)"

While Bai Tian was happily picking up items, a sudden notification sound instantly broke his good mood.

Damn it!

Are you kidding me? The BOSS dropped so much that my inventory isn't big enough.

Originally, Bai Tian wanted to keep the equipment in his inventory until Glorious World and Jade Star Painting Moon reached level 10 and left Novice Island before selling them.

But it seemed that wouldn't work now.

Regardless of whether there were buyers, Bai Tian still listed all the stock in his inventory, including the [brutes shield], skill books, Strength Gems, and other items, on the trading platform for sale via reserve price auction.

In this way, he cleared out over a dozen slots in his inventory to continue collecting items.

He had struck it rich; under the 10x drop rate, the BOSS dropped 25 gold in game currency alone, once again causing the number of gold coins in Bai Tian's inventory to exceed one hundred.

The amount of equipment dropped was as many as 14 pieces, along with a skill book, a gem, and a scroll.

Bai Tian did not forget that underwater chest; he didn't have time to check the equipment, so after surfacing to catch a breath, he immediately went to retrieve the underwater chest.

Flowers in Full Bloom is a woman of principle!

She suddenly appeared and helped him out a lot, yet she didn't share any of the spoils, not even touching the chest.

This woman was a top-tier Assassin with a Hidden Class; Bai Tian had no idea when she appeared or how long she had been there.

If she had any ill intentions, she could have even snatched away the fruits of Bai Tian's labor, including this chest.

This woman's character is decent; they could actually become friends in the game.

Bai Tian thought to himself as he retrieved the underwater chest.

Next, Bai Tian surfaced for air twice more to collect several rare medicinal herbs growing at the bottom of the river.

His 30-slot inventory was filled once again, and he had to carry two of the medicinal herbs by hand.

Staying in the water for so long was very uncomfortable, so once he got everything he wanted, Bai Tian immediately left the riverbed and went ashore.

As for the Centuries-old Softshell Turtle needed for the quest, Bai Tian had already collected the entire BOSS corpse, so he could complete the task.

The reason his inventory was insufficient was also because the BOSS corpse was too large, occupying 4 inventory slots.

After going ashore and organizing a bit, Bai Tian sat cross-legged on the ground and began to happily count his spoils.

Among the 14 pieces of equipment, 8 were green, 5 were blue, and there was even one extremely precious purple piece.

At this, Bai Tian was so excited he grinned from ear to ear.

He immediately equipped the three green pieces and one blue piece he could use, trading a musket for a cannon.

In the end, he only kept one blue piece and one purple piece, listing all the rest on the trading platform to save inventory space.

--[xuan gu necklace]!

(Leather Armor Equipment)

Quality: Blue

Attack: +78

(STR, DEX, VIT, INT): +20

Durability: 200/200

Requirements: Level 12 or above Archer or Assassin.

--[Mystic Turtle Shell Bow]!

(Leather Armor Equipment)

Quality: Purple

Attack: 712

(STR, DEX): +41

Bonus: --Increases Critical Hit Rate by 15%.

Durability: 400/400

Requirements: First Advancement Level 16 or above Archer.

The attributes of this purple-quality Mystic Turtle Shell Bow were simply terrifyingly high, enough to instantly make an unremarkable Archer join the ranks of high-damage dealers.

Unfortunately, it required an Archer of Level 16 or above to equip, so it would likely take some time before it could be sold.

But as for how much it could sell for, Bai Tian had no idea.

Regardless, this bow was likely the only purple equipment in the entire server at the moment.

Unlike the other equipment, Bai Tian listed the Mystic Turtle Shell Bow on the trading platform under his real name, with a price tag of 1 million.

He deliberately set this astronomical price and showed his ID so that interested parties would come to negotiate the price with him.

Although it was the server's first purple piece, it was only a Level 16 First Advancement piece, so Bai Tian didn't expect it to actually sell for a million.

As for the other blue [xuan gu necklace] for Assassins, Bai Tian intended to give it to Flowers in Full Bloom.

He immediately took a screenshot of the xuan gu necklace and sent it to Flowers in Full Bloom.

The other party replied quickly: "I'll take the necklace. How much are you selling it for?"

Bai Tian smiled slightly and replied: "I'm giving it to you."

Flowers in Full Bloom was silent for a moment before replying: "No, I don't accept gifts from others."

"Either sell it to me for 50,000, or give it to someone else."

This woman's nature is so stubborn and proud!

Bai Tian replied: "What are you being so dilly-dallying for?"

"Without your help, the BOSS would have escaped. I'm giving you this equipment to thank you, nothing more."

Flowers in Full Bloom: "Still no."

Bai Tian had a headache; this woman was so single-minded.

She helped him so much; if he charged her for a necklace, what kind of person would he be?

Therefore, Bai Tian said crossly: "If you consider me a friend, accept the necklace. Otherwise, I'll throw it directly into the Xi Liang River."

Flowers in Full Bloom didn't reply again.

Bai Tian was speechless: "I'm on the shore now, coordinates 283:483."

"If I don't see you within 5 minutes, I'm throwing the necklace into the river."

Perhaps seeing that Bai Tian was serious, or perhaps Bai Tian's mention of considering her a friend had an effect.

Flowers in Full Bloom quickly replied: "Don't! You spendthrift, don't throw away my top-tier necklace. I'll be there within 5 minutes."

Only after seeing her willingness to accept it did Bai Tian show a smile and continue checking his other spoils.

--[Overbearing Blessing]!

(C-rank skill!)

(Consumes 10% of Vitality to condense an Overbearing Blessing, increasing Health by 50% and Dual Defense by 20% for 30 seconds.)

(Skill CD: 2 minutes.)

Requirement: First Advancement or higher Class or Warrior classes.

--[Level 2 Mana Gem]!

(Provides an effect of automatically recovering 2 Mana points per second after being socketed into equipment.)

(After being socketed, it can be removed 6 times; it will permanently disappear after more than 6 times.)

--[luck scroll]!

Durability: 1/1!

(A magical magic scroll! After use, killing designated wild monsters or BOSSes will grant 10x experience and drop rates.)

Awesome!

To think another incredibly precious luck scroll dropped; Bai Tian was so excited he almost jumped three meters high.

The skill book [Overbearing Blessing] was also a good skill and would likely sell for a good price; Bai Tian listed it on the spot with a reserve price of 40,000 for auction.

He kept the luck scroll and socketed the freshly dropped Level 2 Mana Gem into his weapon.

From then on, Bai Tian could automatically recover 3 Mana points per second; although the effect was still a bit slow, it was a big help for sustainability.

There was one last underwater chest; it was time to open it.

--[Underwater Chest]!

(Upon opening, you will randomly receive an item of at least blue quality, with a very low chance of receiving a purple item.)

Not bad, another blind box; Bai Tian opened it immediately.

--"(Ding-dong!)"

"(You have obtained a purple special item—Advanced Inventory Expansion Stone.)"

--[Advanced Inventory Expansion Stone]!

(After use, it will add an additional 100 inventory slots.)

Not bad at all!

This thing came just in time.

Bai Tian was just complaining that his inventory was too small and completely insufficient, so he quickly used this expansion stone.

Instantly, his inventory space changed from 30 slots to 130 slots.

Right, after killing the BOSS just now, he leveled up twice in a row, reaching level 13, and Bai Tian hadn't allocated his points yet.

Leveling up twice granted a total of 4 points of fixed all-stat increase and 25 Freedom allocation attribute points.

After the First Advancement, the Freedom attribute points gained per level seemed to follow the level number.

Bai Tian didn't know about other classes, but he himself received 11 Freedom attribute points when he reached level 11, and so on by extension.

Adding the 6 allocation points rewarded after killing the BOSS just now, Bai Tian now had 31 Freedom allocation attribute points.

Bai Tian allocated 21 points to Intelligence, 5 to Constitution, and 5 to Agility.

After allocating points and equipping a few more green pieces, as well as the top-tier blue [illusionless ring] that could only be equipped at level 12, his current attributes were as follows:

Character Name: Brilliant

Class: Cold Abyss Great Shaman (First Advancement, All Stats increased by 30%!)

Level: 13 (30451/691200)

Health: 1497

Mana: 7757

Magic Attack: 1150

Physical Defense: 129

Magic Defense: 95

Luck: 4

Reputation: 400

Just as Bai Tian was admiring his attribute changes, two server-wide system announcements suddenly rang out one after another.

--"(Ding-dong!)"

"(Congratulations to player—[Never Sets] from the [Flying Eagle Region] for successfully reaching level 10, leaving Novice Island, and becoming a First Advancement Archer.)"

"(As the first Archer player in [Nine Heavens] to successfully complete the First Advancement, Never Sets is rewarded with Level: +1, Luck: +2, Reputation: +200, and one Hidden Class Card.)"

--"(Ding-dong!)"

"(Congratulations to player—[Sun God] from the [Kimchi Region] for successfully reaching level 10, leaving Novice Island, and becoming a First Advancement Class.)"

"(As the first Class player in [Nine Heavens] to successfully complete the First Advancement, Sun God is rewarded with Level: +1, Luck: +2, Reputation: +200, and one Hidden Class Card.)"

At this point, all six first-of-Class titles in [Nine Heavens] had appeared.

But unfortunately, the last first Archer and Class titles were snatched away by players from foreign regions.

Just as Bai Tian was secretly regretting this.

"Where is my necklace?"

Flowers in Full Bloom approached gracefully, like a snow lotus on a glacier, cold yet beautiful, sexy yet mysterious.

Every step she took radiated an irresistible charm, making it impossible to ignore her presence.
