Giant's Skull

[Yellow Turban Decree

Quality: Excellent

Restriction: Eastern Plane, worlds touched by Yellow Heaven's Tentacle

Effect: Grants the Yellow Turban Warrior profession.

Description: Shout Yellow Heaven and receive this mandate. The Azure Heaven is Dead! The Yellow Heaven Shall Rise! The Year is Jiazi, Great Auspice Under Heaven!]

Xiao Yang didn't choose to open the mystery box and instead took the Yellow Turban Decree into his hands.

In appearance, the Yellow Turban Decree was just an ordinary iron plate, with "Great Auspice Under Heaven" engraved on the front and "The Yellow Heaven Shall Rise" on the back.

Just like that, a precious job change came into Xiao Yang's possession.

He had to admit, this was the value of a colored talent. It wasn't about how much combat power the Dungeon Delver talent provided, or how well it synergized with certain professions, but rather the increased possibilities it brought.

Xiao Yang hadn't decided whether to become a Yellow Turban Warrior yet. After all, he didn't even know what the Yellow Turban Warrior profession was good at or bad at. He withdrew his gaze. Job changing was a very formal and important matter, and it was best to consider it carefully. At the very least, he wouldn't just rush into it in a fit of excitement.

Besides, he looked down on blue-quality professions.

He possessed a unique colored talent, and while he didn't expect a unique profession, he at least expected something Golden Legendary. Professions like God-Chosen Knight, Arcanist, Mechanist, Cultivator, and Great Shaman were all renowned. At the very least, Epic would do. These blue professions were still a bit lacking.

Thinking this, Xiao Yang held the Yellow Turban Decree in his hand when suddenly, a prompt from the God Game popped up.

[Detected player holding a job change item. Initiate job change process for the profession Yellow Turban Warrior?]

Before Xiao Yang could even refuse this prompt.

[Job change conditions not met. This is not a world touched by Yellow Heaven's Tentacle. If the player wishes to proceed with the job change, please offer a sacrifice to Yellow Heaven under the witness of the current world's will.]

Another piece of knowledge he didn't understand was added. Strange, incomprehensible knowledge. Yellow Heaven, sacrifice, world will – all this chaotic stuff. He was just a level eight newbie, someone who just went into a dungeon, and he had no idea.

Forget it, he'd put it aside for now. There were plenty of things he didn't understand anyway. He'd have to wait for his good bro, Redbeard, to come back and ask him properly.

Briefly feeling dejected, Xiao Yang quickly accepted the situation. He sat down at the long table in the Safe House, deciding it was more practical to focus on conquering the Skeleton Dungeon. On the table, Xiao Yang saw an exquisite hat – the Adventurer's Hat.

Alright, it seemed he wouldn't need Senior Robert's kind gift this time. He placed the Dark Dispelling Lantern from his waist onto the long table and picked up the letter on the table.

"The second level of the dungeon has become more dangerous. This is not a simple small dungeon; it seems to be built on ancient ruins. An Underground Current flows through the second level of the dungeon, causing many problems. Be careful of the Cave Fishmen in the current, but it has also brought some truths to light.

Later adventurers! When you pass by the Underground Current, you must look into the water. You will see a shocking sight! I'll give you a hint: it's incomparably huge!

Oh, and I found a hat on the way. If you can use it, take it.

- Great Adventurer Robert"

The description on the letter made Xiao Yang even more curious about the "incomparably huge" sight Robert described.

Not long after, Xiao Yang left the Safe House and continued deeper into the passage. Soon, Xiao Yang reached the end of the road. During this time, Xiao Yang did not encounter the Underground Current described in Robert's message; there was only a massive Underground Crevasse.

This suddenly appearing Underground Crevasse had torn apart the original path. Xiao Yang heard the sound of dripping water; water should be flowing here, but he couldn't see clearly. All that appeared before him was the deep darkness.

Lost in thought, Xiao Yang stared at the wide underground crevasse before him. He took the extinguished torch stuck in the passage and relit it with the Dark Dispelling Lantern. Then, he forcefully threw the torch in his hand into the deep crevasse before him.

The small point of light briefly dispelled the darkness, disturbing a large number of Bloodthirsty Bats clinging to the crevasse, illuminating the situation in the tunnel. Then, it continuously fell, the light growing smaller until it completely disappeared into the darkness. This underground crevasse was much deeper than Xiao Yang had imagined.

Perhaps there really was an Underground Current before. Xiao Yang saw the water dripping down towards the bottom of the crevasse. Right, and he also saw the "incomparably huge" thing Robert mentioned in his letter, and he was sure he would probably see it more clearly than Robert.

It was an incomparably huge skull, a pale head buried in the earth, its appearance only half-revealed due to this Underground Crevasse.

Xiao Yang slowly opened his mouth.

How terrifying must the creature have been that left behind such a massive skeleton! A giant? Or a god! However, these two definitions were not mutually exclusive. In many mythologies, the first gods were incomparably huge giants, and they had a widespread and recognized name: Titans.

And now, it seemed that under this dungeon Xiao Yang was traversing, such an incomparably terrifying existence was buried.

Xiao Yang felt he needed to re-evaluate the troublesome shovel he had. Because, if he wasn't mistaken, this massive Underground Crevasse was likely caused by the Shovel of Freedom.

In Robert's letter, this Underground Crevasse hadn't appeared yet. An Underground Current, in which Cave Fishmen swam, was now very likely located above this Giant's Skull. This was also confirmed by the broken underground passage that could be vaguely glimpsed on the opposite side of the Underground Crevasse.

Of course, it could also be a coincidence, as it was difficult to verify when Robert's letters were written.

But for some reason, Xiao Yang felt that all of this was probably caused by his meddling combined with the Shovel of Freedom. There was no concrete evidence; it was likely intuition.

"Perhaps I shouldn't have been so meddlesome."

In short, he regretted it!

The path had collapsed. The most pressing matter before Xiao Yang now was how he was going to reach the other side.

He lowered his head, looked at the deep Underground Crevasse before him, and then looked away.

Xiao Yang felt he had probably created a huge problem for himself.

Meanwhile, in the Real Plane, outside Xiao Yang's home.

Just as Xiao Yang was conquering the Skeleton Dungeon, a figure appeared at Xiao Yang's doorstep.

But Xiao Yang wasn't home today, and he probably wouldn't be able to climb back up for a long time because of his meddling.
