While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

Chapter 286 - Insect Beast Types Collection Part 1



Adam returned to reality after being killed and was distraught.

He had allowed himself to be killed in the dungeon after all the training and hard work he had put in to make sure that he was undefeatable and powerful enough for that to never happen again.

However, instead of beating himself up over it, Adam swallowed the pain and trauma, along with everything else he had experienced, and used it as a drive to make it so that he became even more powerful.

After spending another 12 hours of training in reality, inside the gravity training room, Adam was finally ready to get back in the dungeon and was eager to do so.

Previously, he didn't have the chance to use his summons or clone, through his Unique Skills, before he was overwhelmed by the many beasts while he was fatigued.

However the next time around, he was much more prepared and careful and used his Unique Clone Skil as soon as he entered the dungeon.

"You will support me against the beasts I fight and stay within my vicinity. Also do not allow yourself to take too much damage, but protect me from sustaining any fatal damage" instructed Adam to his clone.

Using that clone, he fought relentlessly for an entire day on Floor 9 and it was a very difficult time in which he had gained a lot of EXP, but not gained much progress due to the EXP requirement being much larger and the beasts he was facing being much harder to take down.

As Adam went up the floors in the dungeon, he found that the biggest reason why it took longer for him to progress was because the beasts had much more HP, were much more powerful and were also much more intelligent.

Although he was more powerful in terms of stats in most cases, stats were not the most important thing as long as the gap between opponents wasn't overwhelmingly large.

There were many ways to breach the gap between cultivation levels and power and it was something that Adam previously always had to do with his cultivation level that was low.

One of those ways was being able to sync one's Internal and External Cultivation was an example of that and through that, one could unleash attacks that were much more powerful than their stats would have allowed them to.

Skills, Unique Skills, Elemental Affinities, Techniques, special constitutions and combat prowess were all components that affected the result of the battle just as much as one's power.

Knowing that, Adam was trying his best to make sure that he was powerful and capable in all ways, but he didn't have any elemental affinities, which he was planning to save up for.

Going into Floor 9 the second time, Adam made sure to kill the small Tracker Bees in each of the groups first and also collected the beast type into his beastpedia so that he could use it in the future.

If he ever needed to follow somebody in reality, it was the perfect beast to have and the bee looked pretty ordinary, so wouldn't cause much suspicion.

Adam also integrated the Giant Assault Wasp beast type into his Apoidea Summon, which made his Apodiae Summon much larger and also made it so that it could also fight, but that wouldn't be useful and useable in reality.

However, Adam had become much more skilled in the use of the Collector Skill and could choose to summon a single beast type or could fuse different beast types of the same beast family, so if he wanted to, he could summon a Bee Wasp that wasn't integrated with the Giant Assault Wasp.

He also felt that it might be possible to summon a beast that had beast types from different beast families integrated into it, but Adam hadn't attempted to do so and didn't need to try yet.

The potential and progression of the Collector Skill was much higher than that of his other Unique Skills as he could feel that there was much more he could do with it.

Meanwhile the Unique Clone Skill and Step Skip Skill, only had one function and he could only increase the power and not develop the ability.

After completing Stage 1 of Floor 9, which took him much longer than the other floors as battles between more powerful opponents were much longer and it was almost impossible to defeat opponents with a single blow, Adam returned to reality to train.

With his master's full attention, the gravity training room and his own drive, Adam's knowledge, stats and combat capability were rapidly improving even in reality.

On Stage 2, Adam was once again faced with an interesting and powerful beast to fight against and it wasn't the stats of the beasts that would intimidate him or be difficult to deal with, but it was their Special Trait and physique that he was wary of.

After facing two different kinds of beasts on the same stage, Adam was prepared for anything as he entered stage 2 and unlike the environment of stage 1 that was warm, quite open and was brightly lit, the environment of stage 2 was dark and damp.

It was densely populated with trees and was a mixed environment between a marshland and a forest, which surprised Adam, but also worried him.

He spread out his spiritual sense upon entering stage 2, since it was very dark and there were many places for beasts to hide and ambush him from, but he couldn't sense any beasts in his vicinity which he found weird.

It was hard to walk around Stage 2 undetected with the damp ground and with two daggers that he had bought, and a powerful set of equipment that made him look like an intimidating warrior, Adam headed deeper inside.

Just as he headed slightly deeper into Stage 3, Adam suddenly felt something catch his leg as he moved forwards and soon after that was captured by some sort of undetectable and barely visible wire.
