Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation Lin Huang and the rest stopped once they arrived at the corridor of the last room on the third underground floor .
"Don't come in . " Lin Huang knew that Yi Zheng and the rest would not be able to handle the next battle .
"Lancelot, stay here and protect them," he turned around and instructed Lancelot .
"Don't you need my help?" Lancelot asked .
"No . " As he replied, his supreme sword relic appeared in his hand . He did not use his ancient relic Air Slicer as it would drain too much of his Life Power .
Yi Zheng and the rest were surprised to see his sword .
"Do you plan to fight by yourself?" Leng Yuexin asked . She thought Lin Huang would summon one of his summoning monsters to kill the immortal-level monster instead of fighting himself .
"Don't worry, just watch . " Lin Huang shook his head and smiled . He knew he was underestimated by them .
Lin Huang leaped with his sword and appeared in the last room . In the dark, twelve red lights lit up like twelve red lamps hanging ten meters off the ground . Then, chirping sounds were heard in the air like there was something crawling about and soon, a giant appeared less than twenty meters from Lin Huang . They finally saw how the immortal-level monster looked like . It was a gigantic black centipede, and aside from its black head, the twelve red lights that were similar to streetlamps were its twelve eyes . It was hundreds of meters long and had black, spiky legs attached to each joint . That aside, venomous spikes also protruded from its purplish-black back .
"Kaiserpede!" Yi Zheng and the rest had their pupils shrink when they saw the monster . The Kaiserpede was a gigantic arthropod that was not unlike a centipede . It was a giant insect monster . Such monster would have a hundred pairs of legs when it reached adulthood and achieved the immortal-level . It would grow a pair of legs each year so when it lived until it was a thousand years old, it would have more than a thousand pairs of legs and would possibly at the imperial-level by then, making it a king . That was how the name Kaiserpede came about .
The Kaiserpede was ferocious . When it was hungry, almost every living thing in the room would fall prey to its hunger . It also had terrifying venom, and the longer it lived, the more venomous it would become . A Kaiserpede that had just reached adulthood would usually be at immortal-level rank-1 but its venom would still be sufficient to kill a human at immortal-level rank-3 . Its poisonous teeth was even more venomous, as a single bite could kill a human at immortal-level rank-4, possible even posing a huge threat to someone at immortal-level rank-5 .
Bloody could not identify its combat level as it was sleeping earlier . Looking at its 300 pairs of legs, it was obvious that it was at immortal-level rank-3 . It was clear that immortal-level rank-6 and rank-7 monsters would not want to fight it in these ruins . Yi Zheng and the rest were shocked when they saw the monster's appearance .
"Hehehe… It's been a long time since I last ate a human . " The Kaiserpede did not attack them when it noticed them but uttered those words instead .
"It's my first time seeing a living Kaiserpede!" Lin Huang looked up at his opponent .
"It seems like you're not afraid of me . " The Kaiserpede did not sense even an inkling of fear from Lin Huang at all . Instead, he was calm and he did not seem like he was pretending .
"Kid, you're only at the white flame-level, why aren't you afraid of me? Do you have some hidden card that I don't know about?"
It seemed like it was not the first time the Kaiserpede had encountered humans . It had its guard up when it noticed Lin Huang's odd behavior, possibly due to the fact that it might have fallen into a human's trap before .
"I'm not afraid of you because your ability isn't at a level where it can make me fear you . " Lin Huang answered .
The Kaiserpede then looked at the people behind Lin Huang . It peeped at Yi Zheng and the rest but stopped when it saw Lancelot .
"A triple mutated gold flame-level monster… It might really pose a problem to me but that's about it . If that's all you got, I'm sorry to say that you guys might become my appetizer tonight . " The Kaiserpede figured that Lin Huang was an imperial censor .
"It's almost time for me to hunt for food outside after eating all of you . "
"Too bad you won't be eating dinner tonight . " Lin Huang smirked .
Hearing Lin Huang and the Kaiserpede talking about dinner, Lancelot recalled the dried vegetable that he had in his hand and began munching on it . He seemed like he was unafraid of the battle that was about to begin . Yi Zheng and the rest glared at Lancelot, speechless . They could not understand how it was possible for him to be so casual about it .
"Lancelot, does Lin Huang have summoning monsters that are more powerful than you?" Yi Yeyu could not help but ask .
"With my current ability, he does . " Lancelot gave a short answer and did not want to reveal more .
His answer surprised Yi Zheng and the rest, making them doubtful at the same time .
"Why doesn't he summon them now?" Leng Yuexin frowned, she thought Lin Huang was being careless .
"Because he doesn't need to . " Lancelot said that and proceeded to eat his dried vegetable .
Lin Huang remained standing less than twenty meters from the Kaiserpede, not seeming like he was about to summon any of his monsters .
"There's a human saying that goes — the naive ones are fearless . I can finally understand what it means today . It's great that your naivety would cause you to become my appetizer tonight . " The Kaiserpede learned about humans in the past but it did not think that Lin Huang was showing off before it . Instead, it thought he was being naive . Just as it said this, the Kaiserpede dashed toward Lin Huang, not unlike an agile baby snake as it appeared before Lin Huang in an instant .
Yi Zheng and the rest were shocked when the Kaiserpede moved . It was so fast that they could not even respond in time . Suddenly, a white glow flashed in the air — it was the glow of a sword at the Pinnacle, level-5 Sword Dao and came from the sword in Lin Huang's hand . That single swing of the sword had stopped the immortal-level rank-3 Kaiserpede . Lin Huang smirked as he looked at the giant monster before him .
"You asked why am I not afraid of you . The reason is simple, it's because I'm more powerful than you!"
