46: Sudden assassination

One should at least leave some soup for others when eating meat oneself.

Su Bai tossed all the equipment at the dungeon entrance, then left with Sun Kai.

"I have my own things to busy myself with next. You should complete your class advancement quest as soon as possible. I can't keep bringing you to level up every time."

Su Bai looked at Sun Kai in front of him and said softly.

It wasn't that he couldn't bring Sun Kai to level up; it was mainly that if he kept doing so, Sun Kai's level would increase, but his actual combat power wouldn't.

"Don't worry, I'll go do the class advancement quest in the next two days."

Sun Kai nodded and quickly said.

After the two parted ways, Su Bai went directly to the academy's backyard.

"You little rascal, what are you doing here again?"

"I don't have anything left here. Don't expect me to help you find those things again."

Now, when Sun Shan saw Su Bai, he felt his legs trembling.

This little rascal had already squeezed all the resources out of him.

"Grandpa Sun, I'm not some flood or beast. Look how scared you are."

"I want to know what the oldest dungeon in Meteor Empire is?"

"I took a Nine Revolutions quest that requires me to clear the oldest dungeon in Meteor Empire and get an SSS rating."

Su Bai didn't hide his class advancement quest; Grandpa Sun in front of him could be trusted.

"You've reached Nine Revolutions so quickly?"

"When you just came out of Pride Tower, weren't you only at the second Nine Revolutions?"

At these words, Grandpa Sun couldn't help but be stunned.

"I just cleared that dungeon in Endless Valley, and then I leveled up to 120."

Su Bai's words were light and airy, but they caused a huge stir in Grandpa Sun's heart.

"You cleared the entire dungeon by yourself?"

Sun Shan's mouth twitched slightly, a hint of shock in his eyes.

This little rascal truly didn't act like a human!

"It seems like it, probably. But I threw all those pieces of equipment at the dungeon entrance; I don't even care for them."

Su Bai rubbed his nose, a hint of awkwardness on his face.

Grandpa Sun, hearing this, couldn't help but roll his eyes.

He had still underestimated Su Bai. He had lived for over a hundred years and had never heard of anyone being able to speed-run a dungeon!

"Grandpa, we're getting off-topic. Let's talk business."

Su Bai quickly pulled the conversation back.

"Oh, oh, oh, you're talking about that dungeon, right!"

"There is indeed a very ancient dungeon, but you'd best be careful."

"That dungeon is very special, extremely terrifying. If you go in, you're very likely to die inside."

Hearing this, Grandpa Sun came back to his senses and quickly said.

"I'm not afraid of death. Tell me, how do I enter that dungeon?"

Hearing this, Su Bai narrowed his eyes.

"To enter this dungeon, you need to complete a prerequisite quest. That prerequisite quest is available at the gate of every city; you should have seen it."

Grandpa pointed in the direction of Qinglong City's east gate and said softly.

"Are you talking about the Trial Land?"

At these words, Su Bai immediately reacted.

"Exactly, the Trial Land, the first public dungeon of Meteor Empire."

"This dungeon is spread across all the cities, big and small, in Meteor Empire. As long as you can pass the Trial Land, you can enter the oldest dungeon in Meteor Empire. This is the prerequisite quest for that dungeon."

"Also, take this scroll. If you can't pass, you can use this scroll to escape."

Hearing this, Grandpa Sun nodded, his expression serious as he spoke.

"Okay, I understand."

Hearing this, Su Bai took the scroll, directly summoned the Nine Nether Cloud Sparrow, and flew towards the city gate.

At the east gate of Qinglong City, a stone tablet stood.

The stone tablet was blank, looking exceptionally desolate.

The passing pedestrians wouldn't stop here at all, nor would they even glance at it.

[dungeon Name: Trial Land]

[Level Restriction: None]

[dungeon Introduction: This is a special trial. Within this Trial Land, there is endless terror. Please enter with caution."

[Quest Failure Penalty: Death]

Trial Land!

Su Bai looked at the dungeon introduction, pondering to himself.

Should he directly step into the Trial Land, or should he raise Little Black's grade and then head to this dungeon?

This extremely dangerous dungeon had buried countless geniuses.

As Meteor Empire's first public dungeon, the empire once declared that if anyone could pass this dungeon, they would become the divine envoy of the entire nation.

The entire empire would spare no effort to cultivate him, helping him reach Nine Revolutions.

It was precisely because of this news that some arrogant and conceited geniuses stepped into the Trial Land.

Among these people were not only talented hidden class users but even legendary divine spokespersons.

But they didn't come out; they all died in this dungeon.

From then on, the Trial Land dungeon became a taboo for the entire Meteor Empire.

"No matter what, I'll go in and take a look first. After all, I have the life-saving scroll Grandpa Sun gave me."

"I also have quite a few life-saving items on me; I shouldn't die."

Saying this, Su Bai intended to enter the dungeon.

[Prompt: Due to unknown reasons, the current state does not allow entry into the dungeon.]

Just then, a message suddenly appeared in front of Su Bai.

"What does that mean?"

"Not letting me in?"

Su Bai glanced around, a hint of confusion flashing across his face.

Suddenly, he felt as if something was wrong.

The originally bustling East Gate had become completely silent at this moment. The passing pedestrians had all disappeared, and this area seemed exceptionally quiet.

Before Su Bai could react, a dazzling dagger appeared in front of him, stabbing towards his throat.

"Immovable Golden Body."

Without thinking, Su Bai instantly activated the skill.

Golden light enveloped his entire body, putting him in an invincible state.

-1548438 (Immune)

"Damn it!"

A cold sweat appeared on his forehead, his eyes revealing a hint of horror.

In the distant void, a figure in a long robe stood there, the eyes behind his mask revealing a hint of surprise.

"Didn't die?"

"He truly is a top genius in Meteor Empire; he didn't even die from that."

The person hid in the shadows, secretly observing Su Bai.

"Who are you?"

"You want to kill me?"

"The Yang family's old ancestor?"

Su Bai stared at the figure in the void, speaking word by word.

However, he quickly ruled out the Yang family's old ancestor as an option.

[Name: Thomas]

[Class: Assassin of Death]

[Level: Eight Revolutions, 256]

[Overall Combat Power: 973,000]

[Faction: White Eagle Empire]
