In an exceedingly vast and dark hall, a figure shrouded in a black robe walked in.

“Bronze Assassin, Gu Xinghan, here to receive a mission!” a voice emanated from the figure in the black robe.

“Speak!” A resplendent voice echoed throughout the hall.

“Ascension Camp, Emperor Wu Chan wishes to assassinate the Emperor ascending from Star City; this is the payment he offered.”

Without any visible motion from the figure in the black robe, all of the belongings given by Emperor Wu Chan appeared in front of him.

“Whoosh!”

In an instant, half of these belongings were taken away.

“One month!”

“Bronze Assassin Gu Xinghan, to assassinate the Emperor ascending from Star City, this is your fifth mission. If you succeed this time, you will be promoted to a Silver Assassin.”

The unfeeling and indifferent voice spoke again, followed by the figure in the black robe being forcefully teleported out of the dark space by a tremendous force.

“A Silver Assassin, huh!”

The figure within the black robe trembled slightly. The Meta Organization was extremely vast, and even as an Emperor of the level five Eternal Realm, he was only the lowest-ranked Bronze Assassin within the organization.

Above him were Silver Assassins, Gold-Ranked Assassins, and the King of Assassins.

Bronze Assassins could only accept assassination missions targeting those below the level five Eternal Realm, with the corresponding rewards being the least.

Silver Assassins, on the other hand, could undertake missions to assassinate those from the sixth to the ninth level of the Eternal Realm.

As for Gold-Ranked Assassins, it is said that they are tasked with missions to assassinate Peak Emperors, those at the extreme limit, and Unparalleled Emperors; however, to ascend from Silver to Gold, one must complete twenty assassination missions.

The King of Assassins, meanwhile, is eligible for all assignments, including the assassination of unbeatable emperors.

The requirement to become the King of Assassins is quite straightforward; no matter what rank of assassin you are, if you manage to assassinate an unbeatable emperor, then you can become the King of Assassins.

Besides the supreme leader behind the Meta Organization, he had heard that there was only one King of Assassins in the organization, the one who had assassinated an unbeatable emperor.

Beyond that, he was unclear about the number of Silver and Gold-Ranked Assassins.

One must realize, it took him tens of thousands of years to accept only five missions, although this was partly because other Bronze Assassins were competing for the same targets.

But this also indirectly showed that the missions to assassinate Eternal Emperors were not abundant.

On one hand, the cost of assassinating an Eternal Emperor was excessively high; on the other hand, Eternal Emperors were so elusive that many of them might not even show themselves for countless years, and the missions were time-sensitive.

Just like the mission he had just accepted, he would make three attempts. If he failed all three times, the mission would be considered a failure, at which point he would have to surrender the half of Emperor Wu Chan’s belongings he had taken to the next assassin.

Until the assassination was successful.

If, after five Bronze Assassins, the mission still remained unfinished, then a Silver Assassin would take over.

This intervention constituted a mandatory assignment from Meta, which Silver Assassins couldn’t refuse, and the payment would still be based on Bronze rates.

As he recalled, since the foundation of Meta to the present, there seemed to have been no mission that had failed fifteen consecutive times.

At most, it seemed to have been left incomplete up to five times, and then succeeded on the sixth attempt.

However, just the thought of the privileges that came with being a Silver Assassin made the figure under the black robe uncontrollably excited.

You see, Silver Assassins were granted the opportunity to challenge the Heaven and Earth Stele once every ten thousand years.

The Heaven and Earth Stele, standing at the very center of the World of Eternity, no one knew the origin of this towering stone stele that pierced the clouds and whose summit couldn’t be seen.

What they did know was that anyone who challenged the Heaven and Earth Stele and succeeded would receive a reward, and a very generous one at that.

Among the twenty-four unbeatable emperors of the Ascension and Eternity camps, eight had become unbeatable emperors only after they were rewarded from challenging the Heaven and Earth Stele.

This made the opportunity to challenge the Heaven and Earth Stele the most valuable reward in all of the World of Eternity. freewёbnoνel.com

Challenge opportunities for the Heaven and Earth Stele were monopolized by various powers that had unbeatable emperors.

Although Meta wasn’t the strongest organization, they were the most chilling and feared, thus naturally holding a certain share of these opportunities.

Yet over countless years, the number of strong individuals who had garnered rewards from the Heaven and Earth Stele was limited to just eight who achieved the Unbeatable Eternal Realm. Even adding in Emperors of the Peak Domain, the extreme limit, and unparalleled levels totaled no more than forty individuals.

And over these years, the number of people who had taken the challenge of the Heaven and Earth Stele was beyond count.

Gu Xinghan never dared to hope to earn himself a reward befitting a Peak Emperor, being able to break through to the Ninth Level of Eternal Realm was enough to satisfy him.

After all, the Emperors of the four major realms usually kept to themselves, hardly ever venturing out, extremely difficult to encounter.

“Fortunately, the organization always provides guidance for each mission, otherwise it might really take more than a month to complete it,” he said.

Gu Xinghan looked at the maple leaf in his hand, which bore a golden arrow pointing in a specific direction.

The longer Gu Xinghan had been with the Meta Organization, the more he realized its inscrutable depth, even suspecting at times that the leaders behind this organization might also be at the top in other organizations.

Otherwise, how could they have survived countless encirclements and still stand at the summit of the World of Eternity?

However, he merely thought this to himself, as he certainly didn’t dare to ask, considering he might be dead the next second after such questioning.

“Mad, Tuobagu, I won’t let you go even if I become a ghost—ah!”

“No, you can’t kill me, my father is an Elder of the Eternity Camp; if you kill me, your entire Burning Sky Tree Clan will have to be buried with me!”

Watching the people around him fall one by one, the young man left alone suddenly panicked and shouted loudly.

However, his cries did not bring him a sliver of hope for survival; in an instant, countless tree needles pierced through his Eternal Body.

The force of the Wood Path, imbued with a powerful Devouring Force, made it difficult for the young man’s Eternal Body to recover.

“Hum~”

Just then, a terrifying force rose up.

“Who dares kill my son!”

“Divine Burning Tree King, you’ve got some nerve!”

An extremely angry voice echoed throughout the Burning Sky Forest.

“I thought who it might be, but it turns out to be you, a defeated subordinate!”

“Your son trespassed into my territory; what’s wrong with killing him!”

“Even you, dare to intrude on my land, and I will kill you all the same!”

Then, an indifferent voice came from the depths of the Burning Sky Forest.

As the voice fell, a majestic force descended from the sky and landed directly on the young man.

“Dad, save me!”

“Divine Burning Tree King, you dare!”

“You’ll see if I dare!”

“Bang!”

In an instant, under the influence of that majestic force, the young man’s body turned directly into ashes.

“Aaaaah!”

In a grand hall, a middle-aged man, commanding without the need for anger, suddenly erupted into fierce rage, with a killing aura flowing forth, the embodiment of a Peak Emperor at the limit of the Ninth Level of Eternity, one foot already stepping into the Peak Domain.

At this moment, the middle-aged man looked incredibly grim.

“Dad, I’ve found the location of an Eternal Elixir. Isn’t the God Lord having a grand birthday soon? If you offer this Elixir to him, maybe you’ll be able step into the Peak Domain,” the son had said in his memory.

The middle-aged man deeply regretted it; the young man was the most outstanding among his offspring. He was the only son who had stepped into the Eternal Realm, so he valued him greatly.

And now, he was dead.

“Burning Sky, and even the Eternal Elixir, you’re seeking your own death…”

The middle-aged man wasn’t foolish. It was quite obvious this was a trap set up by the Eternal Elixir; he didn’t know why the Divine Burning Tree King would agree to it.

But at this moment, there was no longer any need to consider these things, as his heart was filled only with the desire for slaughter.

Afterward, the middle-aged man’s figure flashed, and he left the grand hall.
