Adam was very deep inside the castle and a few floors above ground level, which made it quite far from the entrance that he entered from, and getting there would be very difficult.

The traps that he had labelled on the layout that he had formed within his mind had all changed and the power, as well as the frequency of the traps, was increasing.

"It seems that the castle itself or whatever is controlling it doesn't want to let me get out and maybe the entire castle in itself was merely a distraction and a way to trap someone inside" mumbled Adam to himself.

He relied on his speed, Step Skip Skill and fundamental defensive techniques that he had activated to their fullest in order to make it to the castle gate.

The amount of damage he took was great and Adam didn't want to take the time to stop and heal, since he had already spent too much time in the dungeon, so continued onwards back towards the gate.

His time in the castle had improved his reflexes and reaction speed when it came to dealing with sudden attacks and traps, so despite the changes in the traps that made it much more difficult for Adam on his way out of the castle, he was able to get through it.

Reaching the gate, Adam was covered in wounds and had faced many difficult traps and struggled his way through the castle, but had made it, and as he reached the gate, he was pleasantly surprised to see that it opened for him automatically.

It seemed as though the castle, or whoever was controlling it, had no intention of keeping Adam locked in there, but from the castle's previous actions, it was clear that the traps were becoming increasingly difficult with the intention to kill him.

Most Advanced Cultivators would have died after merely trying to get past a few traps since most cultivators weren't as skilled as Adam and also didn't have the Step Skip Skill, which Adam used when he couldn't avoid any of the traps using his speed.

Leaving the castle, Adam used the Ethereal Recovery Skill for a short while and after he had recovered some Internal Energy, summoned his Formicidae Summon, which was the Giant Ant Queen.

With the Special Trait, Ant Production, as long as Adam provided it energy, it could form giant ants that were just as powerful as the beast itself to kill off the goblin beasts for him.

However that still wouldn't be enough and would be too slow, so instead, Adam was going to provide the Giant Ant Queen more energy than it required to sustain itself, which it could use to produce and strengthen more Giant Ant Beasts.

Adam was also curious to find out whether the Giant Ants that the Giant Ant Queen produced would stay after he retracted his summon and was unsure whether they would be obedient to him, but he was excited to find out.

Sitting cross-legged, Adam activated the Ethereal Recovery Skill and all the Internal Energy that he would recover, he would use it to sustain the summon and provide it additional energy.

His HP and External Energy were recovering while his Internal Energy was staying at the same level, but it didn't matter as he was assisting the Giant Ant Queen in producing more giant ant beasts.

The Giant Ant Queen was obedient with Adam's charisma stat being more than enough to control the beast, while it continued to produce Giant Ant Beasts and provide them with energy until they became as strong as her.

It only took the Giant Ant Queen a matter of seconds to produce a Giant Ant Beasts that was equal to itself in power, but it was very draining for the Giant Ant Queen who wouldn't be able to continuously do so without the supply of Adam's energy.

Adam instructed the Giant Ant Queen to produce as many Giant Ant Beasts as it could within an hour and told the beast not to order them to attack the Goblin Beasts yet, as if their numbers and strength weren't enough, they would be overwhelmed by the thousands of Goblin Beasts.

The Giant Ant Beasts had tough shells, sharp pincers and were able to communicate with each other, which made them a force to be reckoned with.

Since the Giant Ant Beasts were relatively smart and would follow all the orders given, for a large scale battle, the Giant Ant Queen's Special Trait was very useful.

Adam spent the hour in his mindscape with Ava sat beside him, but he didn't sit idly and relax and only entered his mindscape because he enjoyed the presence of Ava.

Instead, he was cementing everything he had learnt and come across so far on the floor and also clearing his mind as he removed all the curious thoughts he had about how his friends were doing and what they had managed to accomplish over the past 2 months.

After that hour was up, Adam left his mindscape and was impressed to find around 50 Giant Ant Beasts that were all at the peak of the Novice Cultivation Level, yet had the power of early Advanced Cultivators, which was normal in beasts in the dungeon.

Adam found that no matter how high his cultivation progressed and how high his stats were, the beasts he would face in the dungeon would almost always surpass him in terms of power and the dungeon was a test of skill in most cases.

With the small army of Giant Ant Beasts that he had, Adam quickly recovered most of his Internal Energy and stopped supplying additional energy to the Giant Ant Queen so that he could also join the beasts in battle.

Adam was becoming worried about spending too much time in the dungeon and was planning to support the Giant Ant Beasts, while also using them as cover to take down large amounts of Goblin Beasts at once, without suffering many injuries or losing many Giant Ant Beasts.
