Chapter 28 Dungeon Exploration
Song Wanning and Ye Chuxue stepped into the dungeon world of Shenlong University, and the scene before them was breathtaking.
Here, the crowds are bustling, everyone looks hurried, coming and going as if time is so tight that it's hard to breathe.
Many people formed small groups, each equipped with superior gear and with clearly defined roles. Some were responsible for the front line to withstand enemy attacks, others focused on offensive maneuvers, and still others provided healing and buffs, ensuring the team's survivability and combat effectiveness.
Inside the dungeon lobby, a cacophony of noise rose and fell, the sounds of conversation and haggling blending together to create a chaotic background din. At the dungeon entrance, the area was even more bustling and crowded.
The students looked anxious, their eyes darting around anxiously, hoping to find suitable teammates to fight alongside them and meet the challenges to come.
"The Shadow Illusion Dungeon, Normal difficulty, urgently needs a fourth-level Divine Master-type magic-based martial soul, preferably skilled in light-type skills!" a voice shouted.
"Starry Ruins Legion Dungeon, Nightmare difficulty, lacking support classes, requires Divine Master level 7, proficient in healing, and must be equipped with full bronze gear!" another voice rang out.
"Shadow City, Nightmare difficulty, requires a tank at least at the ninth level of the Divine Master realm, a full set of Silver equipment, and the Blessing skill!" The third voice retorted defiantly.
Looking at the environment, which resembled a vegetable market, Ye Chuxue couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.
She wasn't used to the noise and chaos, feeling as if she'd been caught up in a frenzied competition. In contrast, Song Wanning appeared much calmer.
Ye Chuxue had always thought that the dungeon hall should be a solemn, sacred and inviolable place.
However, when she saw it with her own eyes, she found that it was no different from a vegetable market!
Countless trainees moved about in the hall, holding up signs recruiting team members, which clearly stated their requirements for teammates.
What's even more interesting is that some people don't care about their image at all, loudly shouting out their needs, making one marvel at how lively the scene is.
Although the dungeon world exists within the university, it cannot be reached by conventional means.
First, you need to go through a strict review by the Academic Affairs Office to confirm your eligibility. Then you need to pay a full 1000 points to purchase a special teleportation card.
Only those who possess this card are qualified to enter this mysterious dungeon world.
Just then, Song Wanning suddenly grabbed Ye Chuxue's hand and quickly walked towards a hall in front of them.
The moment they stepped into the hall, the surrounding noise ceased abruptly, leaving only the sound of people talking in hushed tones.
The entire space was filled with a tranquil and solemn atmosphere. Inside the hall, vortex-shaped dungeon entrances were scattered in various corners.
These entrances seem to lead to unknown realms, exuding an aura of mystery. It is estimated that there are as many as a hundred such dungeon entrances.
Each entrance is accompanied by a different sound, which intertwine to form a unique and strange sound.
This sound made Ye Chuxue feel both excited and nervous, as if it foreshadowed a thrilling adventure that was about to unfold.
Each instance entrance has a virtual panel.
The panel displays information such as the dungeon's name, required cultivation level, entry rules, and dropped equipment.
Each instance has its own reward mechanism; once a certain achievement is reached, additional rewards will be given.
"Miss, which dungeon should we run?" Looking at the many dungeon options in front of her, Ye Chuxue felt a little overwhelmed and couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.
After observing carefully for a while, Song Wanning pointed to a dungeon and said, "Let's go farm this one."
Ye Chuxue looked in the direction she was pointing and saw that the dungeon was called "Forgotten Forest," and that only those who had reached the Divine Lord realm could enter.
Just then, three or four people walked towards them. One of them, a boy who seemed to be the leader, stepped forward and politely asked, "Would you two like to team up to run a dungeon together?"
Before Song Wanning could answer, Ye Chuxue quickly interjected, "No need, we can handle it ourselves." With that, she pulled Song Wanning into the instance without hesitation.
“Brother Tian, this…” one of them couldn’t help but speak, but was interrupted by the leading boy waving his hand.
They watched Song Wanning and Ye Chuxue's departing figures, their hearts filled with doubt.
The group had just noticed that Song Wanning and Ye Chuxue were both very beautiful and wanted to invite them to team up.
They were somewhat surprised by Ye Chuxue's decisive refusal.
"Wait here. These two girls must be new students. I didn't expect them to dare to attempt a Divine Lord Realm dungeon."
At this moment, Ye Chuxue and Song Wanning had already entered the dungeon. A musty and decaying aura wafted over them, as if time had frozen at this moment.
The surrounding area was a dense forest, with towering trees reaching for the sky, their branches and leaves lush and verdant. Sunlight filtered through the gaps, creating dappled shadows. The wind rustled the leaves, making a soft, cool sound.
Beneath my feet lay a thick layer of withered leaves, which crunched underfoot, as if telling tales of the vicissitudes of time.
Song Wanning frowned slightly, closed her eyes, and seemed to be carefully sensing everything around her. Her perception was extremely sharp, and she could detect subtle changes.
"Be careful, there might be danger here," Song Wanning whispered a warning.
Before they could finish speaking, a huge python suddenly sprang out of the tree, its jaws wide open, and lunged at them. Its body was as thick as a giant python, its scales gleaming coldly, radiating a suffocating aura of power.
Song Wanning acted instantly; a flash of silver light appeared as her spear pierced the python like lightning. The python's movements came to an abrupt halt, its body falling backward.
"This dungeon seems to be quite challenging." Song Wanning's expression was serious, with a hint of wariness in her eyes.
Ye Chuxue nodded in agreement. She knew that in such a dungeon, any detail could conceal a deadly danger.
The two continued onward, cautiously exploring the mysterious forest. Every step was fraught with unknowns and challenges, but they were fearless and pressed onward.
The roars of wild beasts echoed through the forest from time to time, filling people with fear.
With her martial spirit possessing her, Song Wanning gripped the purple-blue divine halberd and led Ye Chuxue forward to explore. Her eyes were filled with vigilance, her body tense, ready to deal with any potential dangers at any moment.
In Ye Chuxue's hand appeared a small jade plate, emitting a faint light. This jade plate was her magical artifact, capable of detecting energy fluctuations and anomalies in the surrounding environment.
The two walked cautiously, not daring to make a sound. They passed through dense woods and crossed babbling brooks, encountering no danger along the way.
However, just when they thought they were safe, Song Wanning suddenly stopped and said nervously, "Something's wrong!"
Ye Chuxue immediately became alert, and the jade plate in her hand flashed with an even stronger light. She asked in a low voice, "What's going on?"
Song Wanning pointed to a grove of trees ahead and said, "I sense a powerful aura there, but I can't be sure what it is. We need to approach carefully."
The two slowly approached the grove of trees. Song Wanning gripped the purple-blue divine halberd tightly, while Ye Chuxue prepared her own magical weapon.
As they approached, they discovered a huge figure in the woods, which looked like a ferocious beast.
