Chapter 755: Den Of Monsters

…

The complicated labyrinth and the bluish light which illuminated the place made the eerie surroundings of the dungeon look like something that came from a horror movie flick that can make one feel their hair standing on end and their scalp tingling.

The atmosphere and the cries of creatures from deep within the dungeon sent shivers running down the spine of Shin Jiao.

Though he is not afraid he could not help but feel uncomfortable. Every now and then a monster or something would come out of nowhere and suddenly attack him.

If he is a normal human, he would have already died a thousand times while going deeper into this floor of the dungeon. Even those small fry monsters in this part of the dungeon are already at level 78 or 79, so how about those strong ones?

Though the number of monsters and their strength has increased, Shin Jiao still got the best of the situation as he is able to get to fight them and gather more materials.

As time passes by, he proceeds deeper and deeper into the dungeon until he reached another large dome-shaped room just like the one before.

Shin Jiao already expected an enemy inside to he did not linger and enters the large room. He already noticed that it is bigger than the last one. The whole space is as large as two basketball courts and in the middle of the space lies an old tree.

Shin Jiao could feel danger upon shifting his gaze towards the old rotten tree, so he did not hesitate to activate his helmet. As soon as his head was covered with the helmet which looks more like a piece of bio armor headgear, his vision immediately shifted towards the tree.

'Detected a life form… No information could be retrieved from the database…'

"So it's not a tree…" Shin Jiao muttered as the screen in front of his eyes scans his target.

He could see the system carefully and continuously scanning the tree as it connects with his psychokinesis. As Shin Jiao continuously scanned the old rotten tree, more and more information began displaying on the helmet screen.

'Tree lifeform… level 82… Warning… life form has a higher power level output than the user. Please proceed with caution… life form has a tough exterior of unknown origin... strong life force is found inside the lifeform.'

As Shin Jiao reads the information he gathered from the scan, he suddenly frowns. He knew that this monster is more powerful than the two-headed abomination he fought a while ago.

He did not want to gamble as the danger this time is high, so he immediately activated half of his suit for mobility and not for defense.

A hard exoskeleton suddenly appears and covered the vital parts of his body, his chest, stomach, back, and neck.

Shin Jiao then takes out his black katana and a handgun loaded with different ammunition.

Then without a second thought, his figure suddenly vanished from where he stood and appear around three meters near the tree. As soon as his figure appears, two powerful gunshots reverberated inside the large room.

The bullets glowed as it was immediately covered with fire.

Shin Jiao knew that trees and plants are susceptible to firebase magic. So he did not hesitate to use fire in his first attack.

As soon as the bullets flew towards the tree, Shin Jiao noticed one of the roots suddenly moving. It was too fast for the naked eye, but he caught sight of it at that instant.

Like a whip, the root flicks the first bullet, while the other one still hits the root. As soon as the bullets made contact with the root, both still exploded and scattered a strong bluish flame on its surface.

Shriek!!! Shriek!!! Shriek!!!

Like a rat that was caught by something, the tree began to emit high pitch noise as many tentacle-like roots began to appear and began to wave all over the place trying to extinguish the blue flame. But how could a blue flame be easily extinguished?

Its action actually worsens the situation as the blue flames began to spread.

Shin Jiao may be average when it comes to his understanding of the Dao, but he is proficient in arrays and alchemy. Hence he is able to manipulate such a flame even without using his Dao ability and control.

Suddenly, two red glowing eyes appear as the trunk of the tree slowly cracked. The old rotten tree seems to be bent a while ago and now it is slowly straightening its body and this is followed by two red glowing eyes is a large mouth filled with razor-sharp teeth appearing.

Seeing this, Shin Jiao knew that the scan result was true; this is not a tree but a creature.

Then tens of tentacle-like roots began to fly towards Shin Jiao's location, its sharp ends are pointed towards Shin Jiao's figure.

Shin Jiao did not hesitate to move and began dodging the tentacles by a hair's breadth as he runs forward charging towards the creature.

Suddenly, a light blast came out from the mouth of the tree creature. It was too sudden and unexpected that it was late for Shin Jiao to dodge. So, without an option, he just waves his hand and a shield appears on his hand.

Shin Jiao folded his feet and used the shield as a covering as his figure was blasted away by the powerful force.

He lets go of the shield and his figure flew towards the dome's wall. Then when he was about to hit the wall, he twisted his body with his feet towards the wall. Using his legs, he put forth his strength and kicks as hard as possible creating a cracking sound.

Boom!

The air around Shin Jiao's body was suddenly blasted out as his figure moved faster than the speed of sound. The sonic boom made the dust inside the large room began spreading.

Meanwhile, Shin Jiao directly appears in front of the tree creature which showed a stunned expression. It was a bit taken aback by the sonic boom and the sudden appearance of the human which it thought it has blasted away.

Shin Jiao did not hesitate to raise his black katana and sliced through the tree's trunk. However, before he could approach its thick trunk, hundreds of branches and tentacle-like roots suddenly covered its body in an instant.

Clang!

Shin Jiao felt his hand shaking as his black katana was deflected by the strong defense of the tree creature.

He turns around and jumps back a few meters away from the creature.

"Though the blue flame is slowly eating its roots and some parts of its body, it is not fast enough to kill it." Shin Jiao thought as he could see the blue flame still burning.

Then Shin Jiao saw the tree monster suddenly cutting those parts of its body covered in blue flame.

As soon as those parts were severed, it was immediately devoured by the blue flame and was turned into dust in just a few seconds.

"So the flame works, but it is being suppressed by this thing's life energy…" Shin Jiao thought as he suddenly had an idea.

Without hesitation, he pointed his gun towards the tree creature. His action made the creature suddenly shriek and many more of its large tentacles began covering its body.

When the creature did this, a smirk appears on Shin Jiao's face. He did not hesitate and began shooting more flame bullets towards the tree creature which tried to defend its body from the barrage of bullets.

It knew of the power of those flame bullets, so it tried to deflect them. But how could Shin Jiao not knew what the creature would do? He began guiding those bullets using his domain as it flew towards the body of the tree creature.

Soon its body is now covered with blue flames. Upon seeing this, Shin Jiao showed a satisfied smile. But he did not stop there. He suddenly lifted the black katana in his hand and then after concentrating. His eyes squinted and with a wave, he activated a skill.

Humming blade!!!

With this skill, and with his control, a gale of wind was suddenly formed around him and was sent to surround the tree creature.

Through slight control of the elements, Shin Jiao kept the winds blowing around the body of the tree creature. And through this, the blue flame seems to have gained some fuel as it began to grow brighter and bigger and began to cover and burn the tree creature faster.

Gyaaahhh!!! Gyaaahhh!!!

The tree creature began crying out loud as its body was burning while its tentacle-like roots flail all over the place. Shin Jiao was not spared as the tree creature did not relent and began to attack him once again.

He continuously dodges around the room and waited for the creature to be burned alive.

After an hour of dodging and running around, the tens of tentacles that were flailing roundabout suddenly fell to the ground with a loud thud. The main body of the tree creature was now burned into crisp and a large core could be seen in the middle of the burnt tree.

Shin Jiao also noticed that some of the tentacles have not been burned thoroughly. In fact, it seems that the blue flame has no effect on them, so he knew how strong those things are. With that, he decided to gather them.

He then takes the core and left the room.

Shin Jiao could tell that the labyrinth is truly like a den of monsters as he soon faced many monsters as soon as he takes a step out of the room.

After traveling and fighting against many more beasts, he soon arrives in front of two large doors made of thick dark grayish stone. The giant doors have an exquisite design and some strange murals on their surface. The murals display a large demon devouring different creatures which all are looking at it in despair.

Shin Jiao knew that behind these doors is the vampire's chamber.. He has now reached the chamber of the dungeon lord.
