171 Ninety-nine

Name:Omni-Mastery Author:LightningAsura
A wide hall surrounded by miniature dark caves....

There was exactly 50 caves at both sides, boosting a grand total of 100 caves, with a huge one standing at the other end of this underground hall.

Though I didn't know what was inside each cave, but the chance of it containing vicious monsters was more likely…

Since the huge cave like gate at the end of the hall was the only anomaly compared to the other 100 caves with identical looks, I decided to try it first as I might not need to explore the other ones thus saving my precious time.

However, as soon as I stepped towards it, the dark void turned red as it sent out a wave of scorching heat as fire came out to form unfamiliar words.

Somehow, they soon changed to the language of this world that I recognized.

{ YOU CAN NOT ENTER. TARGET 0/100 }

'It's one of these, huh?'

A test like gate, no matter how one looked at it, it had a completely different concept than other gates which had the simple target of exterminating every monster inside and destroying the corruption core.

Since it was like this, left with no other option, I headed towards the very first gate on the right side of the hall…

`~~`~~`~~`

'Mooooach!'

An alerted cry sounded as I found myself really inside a small sized cave, however, upon taking a look at the source of the sound, I stepped back vigilantly.

'Minotaurs!'

Creatures with the upper body of a bulky muscled man while their lower half was a giant version of bull legs.

A total of 10 of them stood there throwing death glares at me, before one of them stomped towards me while slashing a great axe at my position.

[ 'Minotaur Soldier' lv.80 ]

[ 'Minotaur Soldier' lv.82 ]

[ 'Minotaur Soldier' lv.78 ]

[ ... ]

I easily dodged the slow strike as I slashed using a simple move of 'Lightning Style', turning the minotaur into two halves, as his great axe fell to the ground.

Klang!

It only took me a minute to make a quick work out of the small minotaur team, which showed just how much I grew since my struggle in the 'savage highlands' gate

'Is that it?'

I wondered as the gate I had stepped through opened turned from black to white, I guessed what this meant as I went through it, only to find myself back at the underground hall.

The Minotaurs inside seemed as fierce as legends described the, but their only strong point was their crazy physique and strength which is supposedly inhuman, but that was only at the level of unique Ian clone, averaging at 15 points, which would only make them more tough to kill when one reached my level.

They also didn't possess any elemental or weapon ability, and considering I just comprehended an extremely lethal elemental weapon style, they could only serve as practice targets at this point.

Of course, that also came with a down side, thanks to my current high stats, the amount of EP Absorbed diminished greatly, but that wasn't quite the problem…

After all, I still had 99 mini-gates to go through anyway, it was guaranteed that I'd at least gain several levels in the process...
