All-Powerful System - 19 Dungeon

Hou Yan was bedazzled by the huge tower in front of him. In all of his lives added together, he has never seen something so majestic and huge as this tower. Even at the sect, because he was never a core disciple and only was an inner disciple for a while, Hou Yan never saw their big buildings, so this tower was a first for him.

“Oy oy oy, who do we have here? A country bumpkin? Ahahaha!”

Behind Hou Yan were a bunch of men who looked like warriors. They were all in Core Formation realm and were releasing an aura of an experienced warrior.

“Don’t tell me you are trying to become an adventurer? Ahahaha, that is the biggest joke I have heard in my entire life! Go back to sucking your mommy’s titties!”

“Ahahahaha!”

“Hue hue hue!”

They were all laughing at Hou Yan. The victim himself was confused at what was happening. What did he ever do to them to make them bully him like this? Were they mentally challenged?

“Erm… Who are you guys?”

“Huh? You don’t even know who we are? You must be living under a rock! Well, since I am in a good mood today, let me enlighten you! We are the one and only, the greatest adventurers of this era! We are Silver Wolf Squad!”

“Huh? Why the hell are you guys named ‘Silver Wolf Squad’? Are you guys a different race or do you have like a wolf mascot?”

“…”

A moment of silence…

“Uhummm… Go back to sucking your mom’s titties kid. This is not the placeto play games at!”

“Oy! Don’t ignore my questions!”

The group of men ignored Hou Yan and their leader began to try and pressure Hou Yan with their Core Formation aura.

“Ahahaha, don’t think badly of us kid. We are doing you a favor!”

“Uhm…”

“??”

“Nothing is happening…”

“What! How are you able to withstand the pressure emitting from a Core Formation expert?!”

“Ehehe, I don’t mean to show off but…”

Then Hou Yan began to pressure them instead with his peak Core Formation aura. When the group felt it, their back was soaking with cold sweat. Why did they have to belittle a little monster!

“W-w-what should we do?! We are far too weak to win against him!”

One of the men in the group asked the leader. Which in turn received an unexpected response.

“Don’t ask me that! Who do you think I am? Your boss?!”

“Eh?! But aren’t you the leader of our group?”

“Huh? Oh yeah, I was. Well, too bad now you are the leader!”

“Ehhhh?!”

Listening to their conversation made Hou Yan want to burst out laughing but he held it back. He then stopped pressurizing them and walked away. The group was focused on themselves that they hadn’t realized Hou Yan felt.

Inside the tower, Hou Yan looked through all the floors. He found out that there were 5 different floors.

1st floor: The place to sign up for the guild and other miscellaneous things.

2nd floor: The place where shops are set up and items are sold.

3rd floor: The place where auctions are held at.

4th floor: Same as the second floor but here, only items that are rare among rare are sold. This place even restricted and not anyone can enter.

5th floor: The tower guardian is located here. There is a rumor that the tower guardian and the city lord are the same people but no one knows.

6th floor: lol, there is no 6th floor.

Rather than ascending the tower, Hou Yan walked towards the reception place. There, he was greeted by an old man who looked as if he could die any second.

‘What the fuck is this bullshit? I was expecting a beautiful lady, not a dying old man.’

“Young man, were you thinking something rude?”

A hoarse voice came out of the old man. His words caused Hou Yan’s back to being soaked with cold sweat.

“N-No, sir.”

“Good. Now then, what brings you here?”

“Does one need to be an adventurer in order to access the dungeon?”

“No, but if you sign up as an adventurer, then you can access the 2nd and 3rd floor. Also, we will buy your loot more than it costs at the market.”

“Oh… Alright, thanks.”

“You are welcome.”

Then he proceeded towards the dungeon.

——————————————-

Inside the first floor of the dungeon, Hou Yan was slaying monsters one after the other. It felt like an endless loop. All of the monsters’ bodies kept on stacking up that it was almost the same height as Mt. Tai.

Finally, after a while, he found the entrance to the second floor, but the second floor was no different than the first floor. Slaying monsters one after another.

He continued doing the same process till he reached the 5th floor. Hou Yan did not stop because he ran out of stamina, but he was hungry. He only had breakfast and nothing else.

Walking back to the inn, Hou Yan could see people closing down their stalls and heading home. Hou Yan had been in the dungeon without knowing how much time had passed. All he did in there was that he slew monsters one after another.

Inside the inn, Hou Yan chewed on the leftover food without any care to his surrounding. He was eating like he had been starved for days. The innkeeper looked at him weird and thought if this guy had an abyss stomach.

After finishing his food and thanking the innkeeper, Hou Yan went back to his room in order to rest. He was planning on stocking up on food and heading down to the dungeon again, but this time, he was going to stay there for a while.

————————————-

*A FEW HOURS LATER* {hehe spongipup sqrpansu}

After a good nap, Hou Yan jumped out of bed and headed towards the market. He needed to stock up on food, but the food he was going to buy had to be diverse. He wasn’t going to buy only one kind of food but different kinds.

Because it was really early in the morning, many of the stalls were empty. It was a great time to stock up.

After several hours of buying food and waiting for more stalls and also buying their food, Hou Yan was ready to head back to the dungeon. He believed that he would be able to last inside the dungeon for months, if not, many days.

After informing the innkeeper that he would be going inside the dungeon for a while, he headed towards the dungeon.

Inside the tower, Hou Yan was greeted by the same old man. He then headed down to the dungeon and began his massacre. Not even an ant was left alive.

-SLASH- -SLASH–SLASH–SLASH–SLASH-

In the 10th floor, A young man could be seen slashing and slashing his sword, but every slash would put a monster to bed for eternity. That young man was none other than Hou Yan. These monsters in the 10th and below floors were so easy that their necks felt soft like tofu.

*TIME SKIP*

It has been days since Hou Yan had entered the dungeon. Every day he was advancing 5-3 floors. Right now he was on the 46th floor. For his age, he could be considered as a prodigy amongs prodigies. Even the legendary expert wouldn’t topple his achievements if he was at Hou Yan’s age. Below the 40th floor, all the monsters were putting up futile resistance, only to have their last hopes crushed by a big black sword, The BBS :)).

Once he reached the 40th floor, his speed began to slow down. The quantity and the quality of the monsters were increasing at an astronomical number. Some of the monsters would even require him to punch them twice with his punching technique.

Everything was going smooth except one important thing. He wasn’t leveling up after all of these experiences he gathered!

“System, why am I not leveling up? Do I still lack experience?”

‘It is not that you lack experience, but you have auto leveling up turned off and your experience has been stacking up like crazy. Would you like to use the experience to rank up to Core Formation Upper level, or increase your techniques’ level?’

“Oh? I am so stupid! Alright, put all of my experience in Universal Bestowing.”

‘I suggest host doesn’t not do that.’

“Why?”

‘Your body is still too weak to handle the third level of that technique. Also the amount of experience you need isn’t even at 10% so don’t waste your experience on it.’

“Uhm… System do you have a way to spread my experience to all my techniques?”

‘Yes. You could use some of your experience to make your Heavenly Steps reach 16/20. You could also use some of your experience to make your Heaven Burning Punch reach 15/20. Then, use the rest to reach Core Formation middle level.’

“That sounds good.”

‘Alright, commencing with system’s recommendation.’

‘Yeet… You have reached Core Formation middle level.’

‘Yeet… You have leveled up Heavenly Steps to 16/20.’

‘Yeet… You have leveled up Heaven Burning Punch to 15/20.’

‘Yeet… no more level ups. Idiot.’

“Huh? What was that last message?”

‘Nothing…’

“Oh, alright. Anyways, I feel so much power right now. I feel like I could annihilate all of these monsters with the flicker of my booger.”

‘Don’t… That’s nasty.’

“True…”

After a bit of a rest, Hou Yan continued slaying monsters one after another till he reached the 50th floor. After stepping into the 50th floor, the whole view changed. Before Hou Yan was still at planet Xuan Huang but now, it felt like he was inside a different realm.

The 50th floor looked really big. It felt as if it was its own world. The monsters here were stronger than before. In order to not call trouble for himself, Hou Yan went invisible mode and searched the vicinity. Then, at the top of a mountain, Hou Yan found a huge gate. There were carvings on the wall, but Hou Yan wasn’t able to read it.

“System, what do those words say?”

‘ent’r only if ‘t be true thee seeketh death.Ent’r only if ‘t be true thee bethink thou art stout coequal.If ‘t be true thy wav’rs coequal f’r a dram, ent’r not ‘r else thee shall kicketh the bucket. ‘

“What the hell does that even say?”

‘Enter only if you seek death. Enter only if you think you are strong. If you waver even for a little, don’t enter for you will inevitably die.’

‘System did a little editing so you don’t get confused, dumb dumb dummy host.’

“Thank you system. So, if I want to enter, I must have strength worthy of beating or rivaling whoever is inside there. Sigh, I don’t like doing dangerous things, but I want to see how strong I am.”

With a gentle push, the door began to open.
