Epic Of Caterpillar

At floor 81, giant phantasmal beast approached us from all directions, my senses quickly kicked in as they alerted me about their powers. They were a bunch of Mini-Bosses, the smallest one had the size of around fifteen meters tall.

I decided to clear the mist around us with my [Wind Manipulation] and quickly conjured several enchantments on my family and the Fire Oni.

Suddenly, a thunderous sound hit the floor as a gigantic being made of bones appeared, it had three dinosaur-like skeleton heads, six legs, and two large arm-like front limbs. Brilliant scarlet-colored spherical cores were inside of their ribcages, which glowed in bright bloody colors, enhancing the bones and turning them into scarlet blood bones, each beast had the power of one of the first floors bosses, and it would have been fairly easy if they were small groups, but more than one hundred of these beasts rushed at us from all directions.

Their powers seemed to be enhanced by the mist, as their auras held a powerful and thick pressure, the furious three heads roared in rage, as they saw us as their next prey. I could sense strange energy coming from the Dungeon, which was ordering these beasts to do its bidding.

The fastest of the giant Three-Headed Dinosaur Skeletons appeared in front of us, two of the heads conjured giant magic circles as massive phantasmal hands appeared, trying to pulverize us with an immense force. The head in the middle roared furiously as intense black flames flew through the air. I instantly detected these as the flames capable of corroding minerals. One of the things I use the most is my armor; it was rather convenient for them to have such a breath… Perhaps the Dungeon had seen this flame as a "weakness" and planned.

Of course, I wouldn't let anything like this touch my family, as I quickly summoned my armor back, because I've "Devoured" the armors I made with combinations of different armors and elements, I was able to remember how I made the Holy Flames Seraph armor that I used to kill the last Undead Turtle Boss. In a split second, the brilliant holy armor covered my body once again, as I resembled a giant seraph covered in heavenly armor made by gods.

Concentrating my brilliant Aura, I released a powerful blast of purging flames. A powerful tremor made the entire floor tremble as the Three-Headed dinosaur took the blast right into its middle head, getting it vaporized instantly. The other two heads still tried to smash us into a pulp with its massive body and phantasmal hands, however, two more beams of holy flames were enough to vaporize the being completely, only leaving its shiny scarlet cores in the ground.

There wasn't much time to think, as more of these beasts appeared out of the mist, in what would seem like a horror movie on earth, however, for my family, it was no more than a new challenge to test their strength. Everyone braced themselves as they jumped for battle. I was going to maintain the beast into a good distance from each other, while my family members would fight them slowly.

I molded my Aura swiftly as I created two massive hands made of shining holy flames, the two blinding phantasmal hands flew towards the beast as they sent the through the air like toys. The beasts seemed to be in a daze as they never thought it would be possible for their massive bodies to be thrown around like nothing.

Although some dinosaurs slipped through my guard, they targeted my family but not the menacing shining monster that would vaporize them instantly. My family quickly took them one by one with a flashy spectacle of their magic attributes, skills, and techniques. Kaguya displayed the most efficient way of killing the beasts, as she burned them into ashes with overwhelming giant fireballs.

The Three-Headed skeletal beast varied in powers as well, as there were some covered in undying blue flames, possessing Fire Immunity, and others being covered in brilliant gemstones, having Fire Resistance and Thunder Immunity. Other beasts were covered in a thick and oozy semitransparent black slime, making them resist most elements and being immune to water.

Each beast was unique, but most of them were still weak to Holy and Light, so the girls and children that had Skills related to these elements were the ones who took the spotlight this time, Adelle in specific was flashing through the battlefield like a shining beam of light, slashing and vaporizing any beast she attacked with her rapier. Acelina and Altani put on a lot of help as well, as Altani had the Light Attribute from her Starlight Magic and Acelina had Holy Attribute from her Heavenly Gold Magic.

Amiphossia and her ghostly party devoured the Undead like snacks, attacking them on their cores or straight-up eating their cores, instantly turning the beasts into giant piles of bones. Geraldine supports Amiphossia flawlessly with her Ice Magic, while Seishin, the Phantasmal Wolf, supports Amiphossia by taking the attention of the beast by using its skill [Spectral Cry].

Vudia, Ailine, and Aarae took this opportunity to try on Light and Holy magic, swiftly leveling it up by slaying the beasts they fought. Vudia had managed to create Heavenly Lighting, by fusing Holy Attribute on her Electric Conductivity abilities. Ailine had managed to draw the power of Holy and Light through the Yellow, Gold, and White colors in the environment, or even by "stealing" he colors from her sibling's magic as well.

Aarae used some of the Light and Holy spells that it had already learned to enhance his Hammerhead Shark Familiar, which converted into a fatty and majestic Whale Shark, however, even if it was quite fatty, it held incredible speed and its blows and bites instantly vaporized the beasts it came across. Aarae also created Holy Water Magic, which seemed effective against the majority of the beast that didn't have Water Immunity.

Ryo used his transformation to cover his gauntlets with Holy Fire, as one of the gauntlets had those two attributes, and by manipulating it with his Ki Aura, he managed to give these two attributes to his other gauntlets. His blows were devastating as they crushed the skulls of his enemies. His Aura would enhance his capabilities beyond his expectations as he massacred the Undead monsters, now he really resembled his title as the "Annihilation King".

Valentia was using her [Monster Arm] to enhance around 50% of her body, covering it in sturdy dark scales. Her hands would turn into giant claws and her head would turn into that of a furious Shadow Wyvern, with giant wings, she flew through the air with immense speed and force, blasting the beasts with her overwhelming strength alone, even without having any type of advantage element-wise, her punches massacred the monster until they couldn't walk anymore, and then she devoured their cores voraciously. In a similar fashion to Valentia, Nesiphae, Nixephine, and Brontes destroyed the beasts into pieces, even without any elemental advantage.

As the hours went through, the monsters never stopped coming and I now was getting impatient, my family was going just fine, but how dedicated was this god on killing us? I decided to inspect the whole floor in detail, by expanding the domain of my Aura. I quickly found three massive Spawn Artifacts in the back of the room, which were being fed constantly with Dungeon Energy.

Deciding to end this quickly, I flew at max speed through the army of giant skeleton beasts, vaporizing my way through as only their ashes flew in the air. Reaching the three Spawn Artifacts, I was greeted with a powerful invincible wall, which blocked my way.

"What is this…?!"

Using a small amount of my force, I tried to destroy this invincible wall, but then I realized that it was no ordinary magic wall, as it was able to completely nullify any of my attacks, no matter how strong they were… Even when I used all of my Aura on my punches, the magic wall would just mold around the attack and then instantly go back to its original appearance.

I detected that the Dungeon in specific was the one creating this wall, it was that god himself intervening this time! Wasn't he kind of shameless? Isn't he allowed to interfere with mortals? The powerful wall had an incredible density that I couldn't even fathom. I called it, [Divine Wall], and it was most probably being made of pure Divine Energy, something that I clearly cannot fight against. The Magic Wall was also flawlessly made, and the monsters behind it could easily slip through without any issues.

No matter how much I tried to break it, it would easily go back to its original appearance in a split second, it was completely useless. However, it seems that this god is just idiotic, as he never took into consideration that if I cannot cross through his stupid Divine Wall, I can just destroy the floor and go to the lower rooms anyways.

I used all of my Aura domain, releasing powerful holy flames that vaporized all of the monsters currently in the battlefield, then I devoured their cores, and with the power gained, my armor mutated. Using this charged energy, I gathered my family in a single spot while the monsters kept spawning and rushing towards us.

Using [Dungeon Assimilation] while infusing my energy and Aura into the Dungeon, I managed to create a deep hole towards floor 82, which we all jumped to. I quickly created several floating slimes for those who wouldn't be able to sustain the damage of falling one hundred meters. The floating slime quickly carried the smallest of my wives as the rest descended through the abyss.

I glanced above my head to find that the Three-Headed Skeleton Dinosaurs didn't doubt at all as they fell through the hole without hesitation. When we reached flor 82, the Dungeon suddenly shacked in a seemingly rage state. It was probably that God getting frustrated…

The stupid monsters that fell to the floor 82 hit the floor with immense force and shattered into pieces. Even their cores were destroyed and all of them died instantly, a sudden burst of EXP was given to all of us as even when these monsters foolishly committed suicide, it was still counted as our kills.

After that, the Dungeon seemed to calm down for a second, as we rested for some minutes, I then devoured the rest of the Monster that kept falling and crashing into pieces in the ground. After half an hour, they stopped respawning and we resumed our travel.

[Scarlet Blood Core of Furious Resentment]

Floor 82 was incredibly calm, the monsters here were the same as floor 80, with occasional giant Dinosaur Skeletons that had black bones, or sometimes Four-Tailed Phantom Foxes. It seems that the number of monsters we encountered before was only because of the intervention of the God of this Dungeon, or at least that's my theory on this.

With the help of the small ghost that instantly became loyal to me and Amiphossia, we gathered the loot and disarmed the traps incredibly easy. Most of my Slime Clones were now only protecting my family or scouting somewhere else.

The Spawn Points or Spawn Artifacts on this floor were still quite plentiful but only generated small fry, like Poisonous Ghosts, Ice Ghosts, Fire Ghosts, or Lesser Ghosts. However, the variety of ghosts was abnormal compared to the previous floors, and I ate a lot of these new types of phantasmal type monsters. Amiphossia in specific enjoyed the Poison Ghosts the most, Valentia devoured Sentient Dark Matter whenever we found one.

And like this, we sweep through this floor without many difficulties, reaching the stairs to floor 83 and slowly descending while slaying anything that tried to stop us. I was still using my Holy Armor, and this was what perhaps made this place so illuminated, making monsters usually run away from the Holy Light.
