The Geared Immortal

Chapter 1065

(Unedited)

A gigantic wererat towering up to the ceiling of the cavern is walking while sniffing his large nose in the air. Its glowing eyes are looking around as if trying to find something. On one of its gigantic hands is a piece of stalagmite which was turned into a club.

Each step it took would shake the whole cavern. Suddenly its large red eyes glowed as it saw two figures running away from it.

Growl!!!

Instead of shrieking, the wererat growled in anger as its eyes suddenly turned glowing crimson red.

Suddenly, the muscles of its hair legs bulge as it exerted its strength.

.

Boom!!!

The ground seemed to have exploded as its gigantic figure dashed towards the feeling figures. It could now see that the two figures are humans and they are trying to escape from it. The monster could smell the stench of the blood of its kind in the area but it is unable to find them.

As it chases after the two figures it suddenly passes through a strange part of the cavern. Then it discovered that its movement suddenly becomes slower. It did not know what is happening, but it find it weird.

Because of the imbalance in its movement, with its body moving faster than its lower body, the gigantic creature fell and enters the rune array formation.

It wanted to growl but its movement is truly too slow that it felt like its body is inside a quagmire.

At this time, the feeling figure of Xin Ja and Yao Xue suddenly stopped.

"Stay here and do not go anywhere!" Xin Ja said as he suddenly dashes back to the giant wererat.

"Wait! That\'s a monster! You cannot…" she wanted to stop him, but his figure was too fast.

Xin Ja saw the huge creature slowly falling down as if inside an invisible gooey liquid. It began to struggle and he could see the strain that the strength of the powerful beast causes to his rune flags.

"No, this is bad! If that thing continues to struggle, then my rune flags would be ruined." Xin Ja thought as he observe the situation.

Without a choice, he gritted his teeth and quickly enters the formation. He needs to kill the giant wererat before he could take his rune flags.

Taking out his sword, Xin Ja dashes to the neck of the wererat and slices towards its artery.

Squeak!!!

The sound of metal hitting a hard object echoed in the air and Xin Ja felt helpless as he could only produce a white line in the neck of his opponent.

"Even with this sword, I am still unable to breach the level gap between us…" he thought.

He was able to kill a 4th level beast in the forest because he was able to use the trees in the surroundings. And he has a lot of time to set up a trap. But in this dungeon, he could only set up a restraining rune array which is effective against any opponent in slowing them down but has no attacking power.

Xin Ja could only lament his luck in facing a 4th level monster at this time.

Suddenly, the glowing eyes of the beast shifted towards him and he could suddenly feel a strange pressure heavily weighing on his body.

Xin Ja\'s expression paled as he feel his consciousness being suppressed by the beast. If this continues on, then he knew that he would surely die in this place without a corpse. And after he killed the kin of this creature, he would surely be turned into minced meat after his rune array flags break.

He could tell that the rune arrays are getting weaker, as the creature exerts its dominance and strength.

"Aahhh!!!" Xin Ja shouted to try and regain his consciousness.

When his consciousness was freed from the heavy suppression of the beasts, he suddenly forces his Ki to the blade in his hand and quickly threw it to one of the eyes of the beast.

Puchi!!!

The short sword pierced through the red glowing eye of the beast which immediately made it shriek in pain.

Eeek!!! Eeeek!!!

The sudden movement of the beast because of the pain suddenly uprooted a few flags which made the rune array lose half of its strength.

When Xin Ja saw this, his expression turned gloomy.

"I must end this now!" he muttered as he quickly rushes to grab his sword.

But then, he suddenly noticed that one of the hands of the beast has actually been freed from the rune array. Then with its quickest speed, the wererat smashed its large palm and pointed claws towards Xin Ja.

He did not have time to think as Xin Ja quickly jumps to the side and dodges the blow.

Boom!!!

But this heavy blow that shook the cavern has actually uprooted more of the rune flags on the ground.

"This is not good!" Xin Ja muttered.

He ran towards the beast once again and tried using his silver needles. However, it could not even penetrate the skin of the wererat, so how could it damage the creature.

The wererat suddenly extended its arms and suddenly lifted its body up.

Although it is slow, yet its body is slowly reaching the edge of the array formation. Xin Ja knew that if he let this beast escape from the formation, then he would surely lose this fight.

He quickly dashes towards the beast\'s head.

However, it was already too late.

The beast\'s head is already out of the array formation and it is not glaring at him.

But Xin Ja did not have time to think about anything else right now. He suddenly saw the wererat\'s head opening its huge mouth filled with sharp teeth along with its two sharp front teeth. This made his heart skip a beat.

But this is not new to his experience. He has actually experienced a far deadlier battle than this one. So his mind is still clear, though he is a little panicky.

Snap!!!

The long snout of the wererat snapped at Xin Ja, but he was able to dodge it effectively by jumping. He landed on the beat\'s snout and uses his shadow steps to quickly reach the embedded sword on the wererat\'s eye.

As he dashes towards his sword, a long tail suddenly whipped towards him.

Xin Ja has no time to hesitate and quickly gathers Ki in his right palm.

As the long tail was about to hit him, the tip of his finger touches the butt of the short sword.

A smile crept on his face as he could not help but shout.

"Bursting point!"

It is one of the deadliest skills that Shin Jiao has developed in which Xin Ja has also tried to master in the 1 year after the end of his learning.

Bursting point is a skill that lets one gather all of his Ki at the tip of the sword and creates explosive energy. The burst from such energy is not something one can scuff at.

And this same skill is used by Xin Ja by using his own hand as a sword. After gathering the energy in his palm, he delivers them at the tip of his finger and compresses it in that area.

When his finger touches the tip of the short sword embedded in the eye of the beast, he quickly released the energy.

This in turn pushes the short sword further into the brain of the large creature.

The remaining Ki traveling with the sword fried the brain of the wererat making its eyes suddenly turn lifeless.

Whack!

The tail, although the brain has suddenly lost its function continues with its trajectory and slashes through the face of the wererat. The strong force created a large gash on its face. However, Xin Ja who was supposed to be hit luckily dodges it by twisting his body to the side.

But till the impact sent him flying to the wall. He seems to feel some of his bones breaking due to the impact alone.

Xin Ja did not expect that he would be able to defeat such a huge beast and it made him feel a bit proud of himself.

"Hehe… You\'re no match for me…" he said as he spew a mouthful of blood and passed out.

Xin Ja could feel a strain of warm energy entering his body and making him feel comfortable. He could also see that in the void, there is a dim golden ball that is floating.

Suddenly, he noticed strands of energy entering the dim golden ball like a wisp of smoke being absorbed by it.

Then he noticed a series of cracks appearing before him. His eyes showed an expectant gaze as he could not wait for the dim golden ball but burst out from its lifeless shell.

However, the wisp seem to be not enough as the cracking stopped and it left the dim golden ball looking like an eggshell that is about to crack open but the chick inside suddenly stopped moving. He feels a bit frustrated because he knew that this dim golden ball is actually the sphere inside his dantian.
