Chapter 127 Boiling Point! Gathering! Mysterious Stone Tablet... Golden Legend!!!
Yuntengshan Villa Area.
This is the most prestigious high-end villa area in Shengjing.
The people who live here are all either rich or noble.
This place is usually known for its tranquil environment and beautiful scenery.
For ordinary people, being invited into this high-end villa area is something they can brag about for a lifetime.
Most of the time, the nights here are relatively quiet. After all, the people who live here are either rich or powerful, or professional experts, and no one dares to make too much noise here.
But today is different.
Outside a villa, the parking lot was now packed with cars, each one a luxury car that could be traded for a villa in another city.
Many people got out of the car, and the lights illuminated the area so clearly that every detail was visible.
The villa was enveloped in a layer of purple light, preventing anyone from entering.
Some people stood on nearby high ground, looking down at the interior of the villa; the vast majority of them had very grim expressions.
"A mysterious altar... I never expected that the news I just received would appear in Shengjing!"
"And they even showed up at Zhou Ze's house...and just happened to run into Zhou Ze coming home!"
"What the hell is this luck?!"
Many people in this villa area are from the Guozhu family... After all, they are all in the same circle, so naturally, they have only just learned about the mysterious altar.
A 'mysterious altar' that can awaken an epic class with a 100% success rate, and even has a certain probability of awakening a legendary class... is enough to tempt any scion of a national pillar family!
I was so excited, fantasizing that I could have such good fortune and successfully awaken a legendary class...
When I turned around, my neighbor had already gone inside.
...Who can understand the feeling of this?!
Just then, someone suddenly whispered, "Xu Jin is here!"
Many people quickly turned their heads to look, and sure enough, they saw Xu Jin, whose face was somewhat dark, getting out of a luxury car.
Frostblade followed him.
After they got out of the car, they stopped at the entrance of the villa... The barrier inside was of epic level, not to mention that it couldn't be broken in a short time.
Even if it can be broken...
No one dared to break it.
Just kidding, the Zhou family is a family of national pillars, okay?
If the altar were still there and the benefits hadn't yet been obtained, perhaps they would still struggle a bit longer and launch an attack.
But now the Zhou family has clearly already gained the benefits. If we attack now... wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?
Xu Jin's face was dark, indicating that she was in a very depressed mood.
Xu Jin's mood has been on a rollercoaster ride during this period.
Dropping from Tier 4 to Tier 1 naturally enraged him to the extreme. Heaven knows how much effort and energy he had expended to become the youngest Tier 4 Epic class user! To be back to square one in a single day—it's no wonder he's so upset!
But since things have come to this point, anger is useless and can only escalate the situation.
When he upgraded again, he discovered that... although it was also an epic-level assassin class, his new class seemed to be significantly stronger than his previous one!
Whether it's saving lives or dealing damage, it seems to be much stronger in every aspect!
This allowed him to gradually accept the reality, and as his strength further improved during the upgrade process, comparing himself with his previous professions at the same level... made him feel much better.
Once you return to Tier 4, this class will definitely be a cut above the previous one.
At this moment, he was in a relatively good mood.
But today, several old men from other families suddenly showed up at his door, pressing him about his profession, which made him feel very bad again...
He told his father about this information, and his father immediately blocked it, not wanting to alert the other families. He then tried to find the Paradise on his own and get more information about the 'mysterious altar'.
In the end, it was still exposed.
Indeed, there are no secrets in the world.
Under pressure from several powerful elders, even the Xu family couldn't withstand the pressure and revealed the information... though they concealed a lot. For example, they withheld crucial information such as the amusement park's 'owner' possibly possessing 'legendary privilege' items.
But those old guys still forced him to explain in detail the entire process of the altar's appearance.
Xu Jin's mood involuntarily worsened.
How could it not be bad?
Although those old guys were a generation older than him, not all of them were epic-level professionals; some were just exceptional professionals.
And like him, he is also a level 4.
It's only because of the difference in generation that these old guys dare to speak loudly in front of him.
Now that he's being forced to reveal his 'sad stories,' it's no wonder he's in a bad mood.
After finishing my tasks and entering the secret realm to level up, I returned home and hadn't even had time to wash up when another piece of bad news arrived...
Strange phenomena have occurred at Zhou Ze's home.
And Zhou Ze has already entered that mysterious altar...
This made him even more frustrated!
Because Zhou Ze's situation is completely different from his!
He was already a Tier 4 Epic Assassin! The new class he got was also Epic, but it dropped to Tier 1. For him, the income was completely disproportionate to the effort.
But what about Zhou Ze?
This guy is just a regular warrior!
He was even secretly referred to as the 'disgrace of the national pillar' by many members of the national pillar family!
Did he obtain the mysterious altar?
From an ordinary profession to an epic one?
They've made a killing!
This person is afraid of comparison. Without comparison, changing to a slightly more powerful profession doesn't seem like a loss.
But when you compare... trading epic for epic, versus trading ordinary for epic...
Even the opponent's rank is much lower than his own!
...That's a huge loss in an instant!
Xu Jin couldn't resist and ran over, but now her face was as black as the bottom of a pot...
Even from dozens of meters away, you could feel the resentment emanating from him!
As for Frostblade beside him, he frowned and looked into the distance without saying a word.
"Look, Jiang Linxue is here too!"
Just then, someone suddenly spoke in a low voice.
Immediately, everyone's attention shifted to a luxury car, and then a stunningly beautiful woman stepped out of it.
She was indeed stunningly beautiful, with a composed demeanor and calm gaze. After getting out of the car, she found a spot, looked at the villa, and took no further action.
Her arrival attracted a great deal of attention... simply because she is one of the epic stories of the younger generation of the Guozhu Jiang family.
Epic class, even within the Guozhu family, is an absolute elite.
With Jiang Linxue's arrival, the epic tales of the younger generation from various families also began to unfold one after another.
Without a doubt, the 'mysterious altar,' whose news only just spread today, has captured the attention of almost everyone.
The Xu family, the Jiang family, the Lu family, the Wang family...
One by one, the epic figures arrived, their expressions somewhat solemn, waiting outside the villa.
"The Zhou family has arrived!"
Suddenly, more than ten luxury cars drove up in succession.
A group of Zhou family members got out of the car.
At the very front was Zhou Ying, her expression a mixture of excitement and seriousness.
Then, members of the Zhou family got out of the other cars one by one.
Even the elders of the Zhou family came upon hearing the news!
Fortunately, this is a high-end villa area with a large enough area, and after these people got out of the car, the driver drove the vehicle to an open area in the distance, otherwise the road would have been blocked long ago.
After arriving, the Zhou family did not wait outside, but went directly towards the villa.
Soon, the light of the epic barrier disappeared.
The Zhou family also entered.
Other members of the Guozhu family were also able to get close.
Zhou Ying immediately found her secretary and excitedly asked, "What exactly happened?!"
The secretary immediately and concisely explained the matter to Zhou Ying and the group of Zhou family members behind her.
When they heard that Zhou Ze had just gotten home and gotten out of the car, they heard a loud bang, and then a strange phenomenon appeared in the garden, causing the Zhou family members to gasp in shock!
His eyes widened.
I can hardly believe it...
"Xiaoze... what kind of luck is this?"
My cousin, Sister Shi, looked shocked and bewildered.
We were still discussing this in a meeting last night, and we were even preparing to leave for Iron Fang City tomorrow... but when I turned around, my cousin had already entered the 'Mysterious Altar'.
What the hell is this?!
Zhou Xuan, a young epic-level professional from the Zhou family, had a bright look in his eyes, filled with anticipation: "So Xiao Ze has already gone in? How long has it been?"
"Less than half an hour," the secretary replied quickly.
“That should be soon.” Zhou Xuan nodded, then his eyes flashed: “A mysterious altar has appeared in Shengjing as well… We’ll soon find out whether this mysterious altar can be used for class advancement, and at least to the epic level.”
A single piece of evidence is insufficient.
Only Xu Jin has entered the mysterious altar so far, and that's only his side of the story... No one can be sure what exactly happened.
But now that it has reappeared, we can be absolutely certain... that this mysterious altar does have the effect of changing jobs!
...
While the outside world was already bustling with activity, Zhou Ze was currently in a state of chaotic darkness.
The world was filled with a chilling wind, and ghostly figures loomed in the distance. As soon as Zhou Ze entered, his whole body stiffened, and his expression became solemn.
Completely different from Xu Jin... When Xu Jin entered, he was a Tier 4 Epic Assassin. He was confident in facing all dangers, and naturally calm and composed. To him, these ghostly figures were no different from the background of an ordinary dungeon.
But Zhou Ze is different... He's just an ordinary warrior, and his rank is only level 2...
Their strength is really not up to par.
Lacking strength naturally leads to a lack of confidence, which in turn makes one more cautious.
Although Xu Jin clearly told the elders that... this world was filled with gloomy winds, but in reality there was no danger.
Even though Zhou Ze came in personally, he still dared not be careless.
Therefore, his progress was...very slow.
After all, what is 'not dangerous' to Zhou Ze could be a fatal crisis for him...
He naturally had to be careful.
This made Qin Fang, who had just entered, look rather strange.
Fortunately, after cautiously probing and confirming that there was no danger in the eerie wind, he quickened his pace.
More than half an hour later...
Zhou Ze saw the mysterious stone tablet that Xu Jin had described to the elders!
Really?!
Zhou Ze's eyes lit up, and he quickly walked over.
The stone tablet is ancient and simple, with mysterious characters engraved on it.
But as he approached, the characters rapidly changed, eventually transforming into the Xia script that he could recognize.
A madman who oversteps the bounds of time,
To measure the lengths of eternity with a mortal body—
Your spine yearns to become the axis of time.
Your eyes attempt to imprison the tides of day and night!
I will forge the remains of stars to shackle you.
Draw the threads of the universe to weave your battle robe;
The embers of creation surge through your veins.
May the frost of loneliness forge the sharpness of your blade!
Your name shall be engraved as—
He read it word by word.
At the very back, there was a clump of dirt.
Zhou Ze trembled all over. Xu Jin had described a similar scene to his elders. He said that he got a brand new job after wiping away this stain!
Zhou Ze did not hesitate at all and gritted his teeth.
"Give me an... epic!"
He reached out and wiped away the dirt.
[Guardian of Time Prison!]
[Contract achieved!]
...
As golden flames ignited from his fingertips, engulfing the entire stone monument.
Zhou Ze was stunned.
"Not an epic?"
"yes……"
"legend?!?!?!?!"
His heart seemed to stop; his eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at the panel before him, bathed in golden flames…
It radiated a sacred and dazzling divine light!
The Golden Legend!!!
