The latest update has arrived! Since the game's launch, your heroes have been providing feedback regarding combat difficulty and experience, which is we solved during this update. We've introduced a new "Mnemonic" system, allowing heroes to integrate these Mnemonic into their Skills, creating a variety of martial arts combinations.To make the game's Energy and Chi more aligned with the authentic martial arts of the Jianghu, we've incorporated a cost for using Skills. The amount of Energy and Chi will now directly impact the damage of these skills, and the current level of Energy will also determine a player's defensive strength when fending off enemy attacks. In addition, we've adjusted the strength of NPCs. Based on their power, NPCs are now categorized into nine levels, with higher-level NPCs being more formidable and holding a higher status in the Jianghu world. Following this update, several hermit will emerge, each with their own powerful skills. Players will need to be carefully in their search to uncover these hidden figures. This update also brings a new fashion feature, allowing heroes to easily install and remove downloaded fashion mods. There must be anticipate encountering various issues at the beggin of version. We warmly invite you heroes to report any bugs through the in-game bug reporting feature or by leaving comments on the Steam platform, helping us to improve the game's content!
