The Geared Immortal

Chapter 757

…

Shin Jiao feels like being pacified by a mother after his toy was stolen from him by someone. The information given to him by the goddess is something that is very crucial for his growth. He could not deny the fact that Deity Nuah truly values Susan Tang as her disciple. But what could Shin Jiao do if Susan Tang has already decided on her path?

He really loves her too much, so he could just let her go. If this would give her satisfaction and happiness even without him by her side, then this is the only thing he can do for her, to forget her and move on.

As Shin Jiao slowly digested the information given to him by Deity Nuah, he just stood in the middle of the rubble and ruined chamber.

Those high elves that are huddled in the chamber just look at the human. They saw the battle and saw how strong the human is, so how could they move recklessly. They are afraid that the human would turn his anger towards them.

Due to their fear and suffering torture for many weeks, their previous haughty attitude is now gone. They all now became timid and fearful. Some of them seem to have their minds already broken and are just looking in the emptiness with their lifeless eyes.

Not long later, Shin Jiao slowly opens his eyes and a strong power emanated from his body.

"So this is how you should balance your body and internal power," he muttered as he feels his body's condition and the power inside of him.

What Deity Nuah imparts to his mind is a type of balance cultivation technique that would help his body and internal energy grows together. It's like the Yin and Yang energy void which would destroy and absorb energy, the technique is called Gaia's Blessing. It is a cultivation technique that incorporates the use of energy to strengthen one's physique as it grows with the internal strength of the user.

The balance on both physique and internal energy could make him stronger and more powerful as his strength grows.

This type of technique is the same technique he has seen. It is the same technique being used by Susan and Yunya.

As he basks in his newfound strength, Shin Jiao looks around the ruined chamber and noticed the high elves in the corner.

"I will free you guys later so wait for a while… I will try and reset your resurrection spots." Shin Jiao said as he walks to the throne.

From there he scanned the seat and then noticed a small protrusion. As he pressed it, a small panel opens inside of the armchair. Shin Jiao then pulled the lever after scrutinizing the panel.

Then on the wall, something suddenly opens. And then inside he saw a couple of black boxes on the ground along with many treasures. He could tell that the vampire lord has hoarded many rare materials in his time in this forest.

Shin Jiao did not hesitate to gather everything and upon seeing the black boxes, he began to check them, and with a flick on his hand, he took one and scrutinized it further.

After checking the black box, he suddenly pours his energy on it and it began to melt, this, in turn, broke the array formation inside the black box. Shin Jiao did not want to waste the material used in making the black box, hence he just destroy the soul imprint mark on it and release the soul imprint to reset the resurrection spot to the resurrection stone of the imprint owner of that box.

After destroying the rest of the boxes, he takes out the jade plate in his pocket and then crushed it.

Looking at the now empty room, Shin Jiao turn around and left.

As soon as he left the secret room, the wall also slowly closes. Deep within the corner of the secret room a tiny shadow flickers, and then it suddenly vanished into thin air.

Shin Jiao walks outside and looks at the high elves.

"Alright, now I have already freed you all. You can either take your lives to resurrect in the Elven Empire or I will end you... it's your choice…" after saying that he pulled a sword from his ring and toss it on the ground.

When the high elves saw this, they all showed a hint of fear in their expressions. They did not expect that the human would say such a thing. Plus they were afraid of Shin Jiao now as he has a storage tool which is very rare in the immortal land.

One of the high elves who is able to preserve his sanity feels a bit hesitant but still walks forward and takes the sword.

"Thank you… but we… we still have the baroness with us outside of this chamber." He said with a bit of reluctance.

"Don't worry about her… Oh... I also wanted to inform you all that the war is over. There is now a treaty between the humans and the high elves… So you all should just go back home."

Everyone was surprised but did not say anything. They have been through this hell, going back home is already a blessing for them.

The high elf did not hesitate anymore and suddenly stabbed his heart.

Soon his figure suddenly vanished.

Seeing this, the others did not hesitate and also committed suicide to return to the Elven Empire.

Those who could not move were executed by their teammates until none of them were left in the room.

Shin Jiao noticed that among those that have a lifeless expression on their faces, there are a few humans. Judging from their aura, he could tell that they are only peasants.

He did not waste any time and also execute them.

As he takes a step outside the huge chamber, Shin Jiao could feel the aura of the other lord-level beast. Since his cultivation level just had increased by leaps and bounds, he decided to hunt them to consolidate his level.

...

Two days later…

The large hole on the first floor of the dungeon has finally been removed of debris and a small dirt-covered head suddenly poke inside.

Luna did not rest until she was able to remove the debris covering the dungeon's entrance. With the help of the others, she was able to finally open the dungeon.

"I think this is a dungeon…" she said as he walks inside.

Feeling the cold damp air and seeing the bluish light from afar, she is certain of her conjecture.

"Hmm… the materials used in creating this dungeon are really amazing." She exclaimed while touching the ground and the walls.

"Miss Luna, we should first find Master Ji…" Lord Ji Ha-jun said as he and the rest of the people with him enter the dungeon ground.

Luna just nodded her head but did not stop scrutinizing the dungeon. She was truly interested in the materials used for creating the dungeon.

She then tried to forcefully extract a stone but failed.

Shaking her head, she just frowns and decided to follow the group.

Soon as they went deeper, they encountered a large number of lower-level monsters. The group was able to defeat them and continue walking.

"This place is a good training ground for those in the silver and gold armor level…" Ji Ha-jun said while looking at the monsters ahead of them.

"I think it has an infinite monster pool… Look at that place." One of the gold armored protectors said while pointing at a place where an array is glowing.

"A spawning pool… interesting…" Luna said with a smile.

Before the group could move, they soon heard a set of running footsteps from deep within the dungeon.

"Someone is coming!" Ji Koon said as he prepares to fight.

But before he knew it, a figure came dashing towards them. Her beautiful features and golden-colored hair stunned the young men in the group.

Olivia is a stunning woman, with her almost perfect appearance and slender body; she could cause the destruction of an empire if she goes outside and to any of the known worlds. Just like Susan Tang and Qin Lou, she too has the look of a goddess that has descended from the heavens.

Olivia Li'gran saw the humans ahead of her and a smile crept on her face. She's been through a tough battle while escaping with her life on the line. Luckily for her, she knew a path where the powerful monsters have already been dealt with by her teammates from before.

And now she is able to escape to the first floor and feel happy seeing other people.

"Help!" she suddenly shouted.

Suddenly, a large mantis-like creature appears from behind her, and with its sharp scythe-like arms, it slices towards her torso.

However, before the mantis could cut her in two, the figure of Ji Ha-jun appears behind her and blocked the scythe-like mantis arms.

Ji Ha-jun did not hesitate to fight against the mantis and exchange blows with the creature.

But how could the mantis fight against a lord-level warrior? Though Ji Ha-jun's strength relies on arrays, his battle prowess is still strong enough to fight a gold-level monster.

Meanwhile, Olivia reaches out towards Luna's arms, as Luna is the only female she could see in the group. But what she saw next made her heart quiver. This is because a strong killing intent suddenly surges out of Luna's body.

Luna truly hated high elves or any elves for that matter.

She could not tolerate their presence. Hence upon seeing one, she really wanted to immediately kill her.

Olivia could feel this; hence she subconsciously stopped and immediately takes a step back. But Luna has already made her move.

"Miss Luna… Stop… the treaty, remember?" Ji Koon said while grabbing Luna's shoulder.

Upon realizing her current mood, she stopped but is still feeling furious. She did not want to stop, but she has no choice but to relent.. She still is not sure of what had happened to Si Ji, and she knew that this elf might know something as she seems to came from the deeper part of the dungeon.
