The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

[Name: Albagama

Race: Origin Blood God

Rank: God

Description: Due to the disturbance in his realm, the sleeping Origin Blood God wakes up and is angry. He can control blood and can use that blood to attack others. Defeat the mighty god to get amazing rewards and kill the mighty god to get even better rewards.]

The blood cult was not important in the grand scheme of things and this organisation was destroyed by a few random decently powerful adventurers. And this was not the only organisation to worship a vampire as god. As Vampires had decently good charm skills they were experts at gathering weaker followers.

So Anna did not know much about the blood cult. She just knew about its existence and nothing more. She had no idea what the name of that God was so there was no way to judge if this god was the same as the god Anna was thinking about it someone completely different.

But, to be honest, Rein's group really had no need to worry about this too much. He had already seen the soul of this god was completely under the dungeon's control. So the best thing to do would be to destroy this person's soul.

Seeing that Rein was getting ready to attack, the blood God also prepared its own attacks and thousands of spears made of blood appeared behind it. All the spears were also quite powerful and were able to kill anyone under the blue grade.

But obviously that was not a problem for Rein and he casually slashed with Kagura. As the Spiritual Destruction skill was active, when this slash hit the blood God, its soul immediately got destroyed.

Then Anna used her Azure Water magic to create a giant whirlpool and threw it toward a short hill. On that hill there was a blood slime who was also the boss of this floor. As soon as it was killed, the floor was cleared.

In the Desolate Temple, the Conquerors had killed the boss while they were destroying over 50 percent of the area, here the blood God appeared very quickly, so Anna needed to do some extra work to clear the floor even after killing the god sleeping here.

...

After clearing the Blood Soaked Plateau, the last remaining mid level difficulty area to clear was called the Pureland Sanctuary. This area was the safest and also the hardest at the same time.

Not many adventurers died here as the monsters of this area were not aggressive. But all of them were extremely powerful. The only reason why the adventurers were safe here was because those monsters did not attack them.

There was once an adventurer team that has tried to take advantage of this passive nature of the monsters residing in this area and all of them became the first few people to be killed in this area which included a Mithril ranker who was their leader.

But this floor was housed to many valuable ingredients including various herbs, metals and even ready made weapons and potions. And excluding a few super rare treasures the monsters did not attack the adventurers when they went for these items. For that reason this floor was extremely famous.

This did not mean that the whole floor was filled with treasures and anyone could just pick them up as they wished. All the valuable items were behind some kind of formation and a person needed to pass a test to get them. All in all, this floor was very profitable for the adventurers and with very little risk to their lives if a person was not reckless.

But most of the adventurers coming to this floor were of Platinum rank or lower. Mithril rank adventurers very rarely came to this area. That was because of the boss of this floor. For mithril rankers, the treasures found were not very valuable. For them killing a rank 3 monster would bring them a lot more value.

But the boss of this floor was capable of moving throughout the whole floor. And whenever any of the monsters would be attacked, it would show up there. And the boss of this floor was undeniably the strongest among all the area bosses of the mid level difficulty area. No mithril rank adventurer had ever been able to defeat it.

This boss was said to be at the very top of the power that a rank 3 boss could possess. So no mithril rank party had ever been able to defeat it.

...

After entering this floor, Rein immediately found that even though there was no god sleeping in this area, the atmosphere of the whole floor was sacred. There was a special kind of aura in the air that was making everyone's mind to calm down. If a very angry person came to this floor, even he would be forced to calm down because of the special nature of this floor.

After taking a look at the area Anna nodded her head in understanding. Seeing the questioning glace from Rein and the other girls she started to explain.

"When I heard about the name of this area, I had a feeling that I had heard about it before. But I was not sure where. It's been millions of years and even I do not remember all the trivial things from such a long time ago. But after taking a look at the area it became clear why I had thought that the name sounded familiar."

Seeing the extremely curious and a little bit irritated glance that everyone was giving her when Anna stopped, she smiled a little bit and continued.

"From the way the temples of this area looked I'm sure that they belonged to the biggest religion of my time. In that ancient era, this religion had the highest number of followers and even big and powerful nations did not go against it that much."

Stella was not able to hold her curiosity back anymore. From the knowledge that she had gathered so far, it looked like someone acting as a god was not taken well by most of the people and especially by the powerful people. So Stella was curious to know why this particular religion was an exception.

"Hmm, that was because the mantra of this religion was peace and kindness. And what that worshipped was not a particular person but a concept. Their god-like being was called Buddha and according to their teaching anyone could become a Buddha if he had a kind heart.

Strength was not a requirement as even the strongest person would not be called the Buddha by them but if the weak person was able to do something selfless without worrying about gains then that person would be called a Buddha by them."

This ideology was very unique, especially in a society where power was the most important thing. Anna also explained that as the teaching of this religion did not pose any threat to rulers they left it alone and as many people soon became part of this religion which included several powerful people who were getting bored of fighting and killing, it was able to grow at a very fast pace.

When Anna was sealed inside the dungeon, this religion was still flourishing but now as no one knew about it Rein guessed that it was probably destroyed when the great calamity happened.

After listening to the history of this religion on which this floor was based on, it became clear to the conquerors why this floor was filled with a calm atmosphere and also why the monsters here were so passive. But it was still not clear why they were so aggressive when attacked.

Without thinking about this type of thing, Rein attacked a monster and killed it. If the information about this floor was correct then soon the boss of this floor would appear to fight them and that was exactly what Rein and his lovers wanted.

The information turned out to be correct as soon as they saw a unique monster coming toward them. It was large, about 15 meters tall. This monster also looked almost like a human. Its body was golden in colour and it looked like that golden humanoid was sitting on a golden lotus.

But Rein was able to identify that the golden lotus was actually a part of this monster's body. It was just like its legs and it was floating in the air because of this. As for this monster's strength, it was definitely worthy of its reputation. Even though it was a rank 3 monster, it had various special skills that would allow it to defeat even a few weaker rank 2 monsters.

So it was definitely extremely powerful.

But still it was not a match for Rein's group and Tasha killed it with a magic dark elemental spell called "Devouring Clouds". It almost looked like Tasha was an evil devil and she killed a good god.

With this all the mid level difficulty areas were cleared and the conquerors were ready to take on the high difficulty areas.
