The moment he saw the disc.

“It’s there!”

Lin Sheng was elated as he slowly pushed the door open and pulled two axes out of his back, and aimed at the ram-headed electric monster.

“Die!” With a flick of his hand, he transferred all of his strength into the axes

Two short axes quickly turned into spinning blades as they flew toward the monster.

*Bam! Bam!!*

The ax heads struck the back of the monster’s head.

“Rawrghhh!!”

The monster raised its head as it roared furiously, its body suddenly burst open into countless of blue electric currents that flew toward Lin Sheng at the door like whips.

Lin Sheng quickly took a few steps back as his body glowed white and his eyes turned into a draconic state. As he faced the oncoming electric whips, he let out a breath.

*Whoosh!*

A surge of crimson flame engulfed the entire front of the room like lava as lines upon lines of electricity crashed into the flames. Two fonts of energy were clashing at each other within a level unseen to the eye.

Lin Sheng could clearly feel that his breath was being suppressed and weakened by something. His gush of flames would have been like a flood but at this moment, it was barely a square foot into the room.

A massive surge of electricity rushed into the flames as fire and electricity clashed against each other like dark clouds of different shades.

Not too long later, Lin Sheng was out of breath. The power of his breath was determined by the potency of the dragon blood within his blood. While he had increased in level, his bloodline did not.

So the power of his breath had not changed and was slowly but surely being suppressed by the electricity.

“Go!” Lin Sheng once again threw out two short axes with all his might. The axes were imbued with potent sacred powers as they howled through the area onto the ground.

The electric current on the ground was affected by the sacred power and like pebbles upon a pond’s surface, electric sparks went flying.

The sacred power on the short axes could barely hold for a fraction of a second before it was engulfed by the electricity. Just then, Lin Sheng could no longer hold his breath and quickly broke away.

He quickly transferred a torrent of sacred power into the short ax in his hand.

*Hiss...*

This time around, he seemed to have imbued the ax with every last bit of his sacred power and the ax head lit up like a light bulb, glowing extremely bright.

As the gentle white light lit the entire place up, even the massive light source above the dome looked dim in comparison.

“Another one!” Lin Sheng threw the ax in a brutal arc.

The glowing short ax was almost like a grenade and Lin Sheng turned and ran the moment he lobbed it.

He did not bother to see the results of the attack nor did he bothered turning his head back as he ran straight along the path he had come.

Barely a few steps in, Lin Sheng could feel a scorching wave was just right behind him.

He gritted his teeth as he stomped hard, launching himself forward and onto the ground.

*Booom!!!*

At that same moment, a lightning arc of white and blue exploded from behind him, forming a miniature maelstrom as scorching heat and air roiled across the entire hall.

The explosion started from the entrance of the first room on the right, and the ensuing heat blast shot out in a fan shape outwards. Everywhere the heatwave touched, the surface was charred as short lightning arcs danced about around the wall.

Among the clacking, a massive blue lightning arc quickly roiled, gathered and formed into a slightly dimmed ram-headed monster.

Its entire body was rent with wounds, and flowing electricity could be seen from the wounds.

“Ansalgorna!” It roared as it headed in Lin Sheng’s direction with big strides.

But just as it took a couple of steps...

*Whoosh!!*

A massive ball of crimson flame shot out from the exit of the passageway and slammed against its body.

The monster staggered as it tried to fall back as the electric current within its body collided against the energy from the breath.

*Bam bam bam!!*

The chain reaction triggered a few explosions over its body, the continuous explosion staggered it to the point of imbalance.

“Waargh!!” It let out a furious and frenzied howl as it charged headlong toward Lin Sheng.

*Bam! Bam! Bam!*

As its heavy footfalls slammed against the ground, sending minor tremors all over. The monster only needed a few steps to get to the entrance of the passageway, and lashed its arm out at Lin Sheng at blinding speed.

Suddenly, an ax came down in a vertical stroke past its claws and ripped its chest open with a massive force.

*Crack!*

A sizable rent was torn open on the monster’s chest and exposed its beating electrically-charged heart.

At this moment, a second short ax imbued with sacred power struck into the rent, and onto the beating blue heart.

The monster’s movements abruptly paused as its three sharp claws stopped just in front of Lin Sheng’s neck, and just a few centimeters short, it could have ripped Lin Sheng’s throat open, and turning the tide of battle.

Unfortunately for it, it was a step too slow.

*Whoosh!*

The monster’s body quickly blackened and turned into ash as it collapsed into a pile of burnt ash onto the ground.

Lin Sheng heaved as he breathed as his face and neck were drenched by sweat.

The claw earlier had only missed him by a few centimeters, and the skin of his throat blistered due to the scorching heat.

“That was fun.” He bent down as he breathed hard, taking a short rest.

Only when he had recovered his breath that he squat down and started searching the pile of ash.

The ash was still warm as Lin Sheng used his ax to go through it, and an ellipsoid blue gemstone rolled out of it.

The gemstone glowed and dimmed in a faint blue hue. Its surface was smooth as if it was polished before.

Lin Sheng picked the gemstone up after taking a look at it. He could still sense the aura of a living being from it.

“That monster isn’t dead yet?” He had not absorbed its soul fragments yet, so it could still be alive.

He then ran through his memory but failing to find any information about the use of this gemstone. So he simply tossed it up into the air and lashed his ax out.

*Crack!*

The gemstone was broken into two in the air, shattering into a shower of white dust.

Strands of black lines finally appeared as they coalesce and darted into Lin Sheng’s chest.

He paused for a bit as a torrent of totally foreign memory surged into his mind.

The images of the memories were twisted and grey. Everything the lightning beast saw was different than the eyes of men.

Within the world of the monster, every passing moment was distorted, disintegrated, and pulsating as if an earthquake was shaking every moment.

The sounds it heard were also a series of quaking, their meaning unknown.

Lin Sheng closed his eyes for a while before breaking out of it.

“It’s meaningless... there’s too little to work it out. I don’t understand its language, so I don’t even know what’s going on...” Only now did he understand the gulf between humans and monsters.

Their senses were different, so their knowledge would be the same as well.

“Luckily, my spirit’s growth was almost akin to killing twenty-odd Blood Armor or a Blackfeather Swordsmen. Not bad.”

Lin Sheng let out a satisfied smile. After a moment’s rest, he walked into the first room on the right side and quickly took the disc to read.
