The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

Chapter 183: Ch 183: Reaching the Top



After yesterday, all the disciples became used to climbing the mountain with just their body so the second day was easier for them. This time they were able to cover more distance than yesterday and set up the camp some time before the nightfall. This time they were ready for the demon's arrival.

Just as they expected the demons started to attack everyone as soon as the sun went down. But after fighting the demons for some time everyone realised one thing. The demons that were attacking them today were way stronger than the demons that had attacked them yesterday.

If Colinde and Rein were not here, the disciples would definitely be in major danger. The demons attacking them today were almost 3 times stronger than the previous day. If the strength of the demons continue increasing like this, it would be an insane trouble. They needed to reach the mountain top as soon as possible or soon it would become very hard for them to hold on without losing any lives.

That night no one was able to sleep at all. All the disciples needed to fight with all their might or the defensive line would have fallen. Staying awake for a single night was not a big deal for the cultivators. But fighting for the whole night with extremely powerful enemies who were stronger than them was mentally very taxing.

The next day when the demons disappeared, all the disciples started to climb the mountain in a frenzy. They were extremely tired but still none of them thought about taking rest. They knew that if they did not reach the top before the nightfall, then they would really be in a lot of trouble if the demons became even stronger.

All the disciples used their spiritual powers without worrying about anything and used the pills to replenish them. They just wanted to be as fast as possible and nothing else was important. With this insane effort from all the disciples, it did not take them long before they were able to see the top.

Seeing that their goals were so close by all of them increased their speed even more. But no matter how fast they went, they were unable to reach the top. Rein stopped all the disciples and told them the unfortunate news. All of them were currently trapped in a Spatial Domain and they needed to break this domain before they were able to reach the top.

But no one here knew a way to break through a spatial barrier. Only people who had very rare space related talents or high ranking cultivators who had studied about space related laws were capable of breaking it. So obviously all the disciples fell into despair after knowing this.

They would fail to not only reach the top but when the night would come and the demons would attack, they would also most probably die. That was the reason why most of them fell into despair. There were quite a few disciples who started to behave in erratic ways and went almost mad. Rein immediately took action and knocked all of them out.

A few people acting in erratic way was not going to help the current situation.

Rein was an expert on spatial laws for his own world but the laws of this world were different. Rein was obviously interested in learning more about it but unfortunately, his skills were not space related and so it was extremely hard for him to analyse the space.

He was also busy with other research that was more accessible to him and that is the reason why he was currently not an expert in the spatial laws of this world.

So even with his current strength, it would be very hard for him to break through this spatial barrier. And the disciples had not realised it, but some of the demons that had attacked last night were above pattern condensation realm and even stronger.

It looked like the power of a true god realm powerhouse was beyond what Rein had expected and Rein was not sure if he would be able to keep everyone safe if this place decided to target him.

But that was only when he was not gaining his insane boost from the Rain Gain skill. In the last few years Rein had found some ways to keep himself secure in most situations. And the best way to do that would be if he was able to make rain fall whenever he wanted.

Rein took out a small stone from his storage unit. It was a very rare stone called a rain stone. This thing was definitely rare but not so rare that it was impossible to be found. Rein had managed to gather quite a few of these to act as his trump card in a dangerous situation.

The effect of the Rain Stone was simple. It made rain to fall in a certain small area for a short amount of time. This stone was not very valuable as the area it was able to cover was not much and the amount of rain it could provide was also very little. So it did not have much value for most of the people.

But for Rein it was an insanely useful thing as it could basically make him invincible for a certain period of time whenever he wanted.

Rein was going to use the rain stone this time not against enemies but to break the spatial barrier with brute force alone. Spatial laws were needed to break the barrier if the person was weaker than the space itself and the process was also very complex.

But when someone's powers could cross a certain limit then that person would be able to break the space even without understanding the laws of the space at all. And currently Rein boosted by the rain was strong enough to do just that.

So with just the swing of his sword Rein was able to break the barrier just as he expected. He made the rain to be purely coincidental and also told the disciples that he had been studying about the space for the last year and so he was able to find a breakthrough point in the barrier when it started raining.

His excuses were not very good ones but currently all the disciples were in a very emotional state. They were in the depths of despair only to be freed from the trap and reached the peak of happiness after that. So currently Rein was like a god to them and if he said that black was white and white war black, they would most probably believe that too.

So after that once again all the disciples made a mad dash toward the peak of the mountain and fortunately this time they were able to reach the top of it before nightfall. There was a castle-like structure there and that would be the place where the last trial would take place.
