True Life

Madara dodged a large snow owl-like creature. He quickly cut it in half and kept on moving.

His glow had long faded as monster after monster surrounded him. Not allowing his Chakra and Blessing to meld. It seemed as if the dungeon had taken his challenge seriously.

Wonderful. (this is not sarcasm!)

He had finally made his way to the exit when he burrowed underground. There would almost 100% be a trap there so he had quickly engineered a way to get out safely.

The dungeon did not allow this.

It shot Madara out of itself, forcing him above ground. Before anything could happen Madara immediately sent fire in every direction.

He would have fanned it but he did not have enough chakra to fight the guardian beast that the dungeon would spawn if the flames got out of control.

The Udaeus was a good fight. LimeLight was probably a little idiotic but he didn't have a meteor to drop on him and he wanted to end it flashy, it wasn't the shinobi way but it was definitely the Uchiha way.

He ran past the burning snowy monsters and reached the 60th floor.

A flying beast swooped down immediately after he passed the entrance, but was quickly cut down, the ambush not working at all. (AN1)

He sprinted once more cutting through any beast that made its way toward him.

Eventually, a monster party was able to form and it stood in front of him.

"It's quality over quantity dungeon, will you ever learn?"

Mist surrounded the battlefield as the snow around them all started to melt.

The monsters lost sight of Madara as a tidal wave of water crashed into them.

Some were able to swim through it but it was quickly turning into a bad idea as they were immediately shocked until death.

Madara looked at his handiwork and grinned then fell to one knee. His breathing turned heavy but his grin never wavered.

He ducked under a claw as another winged beast swooped downwards.

Its wing was able to smack him backward. A monkey-like creature with a white pelt charged behind him. (AN2)

Madara twisted his body out of the way of a punch and ducked another claw attempt.

He grabbed the wing coming towards him once again and twisted around forcing the beast to claw into its monkey companion.

The monkey roared in anger and ripped the claw out of its body.

Madara threw his scythe slicing right through the neck of the monkey while jumping upwards and dropping his leg onto the head of the flying creature. Sending gore and grey matter everywhere as he killed it.

'they have brains?'

Madara pulled his scythe back and immediately created 4 clones all around himself.

The clones immediately started making hand signs while Madara sent more lighting water at the monsters on their tail.

Finally, Madara was able to sit in the middle of his clones as a purple barrier was created around him. Madara took a deep breath and allowed the glow to encompass him.

Monsters surrounded the cube immediately.

Large ice pikes and claws crashed into it. Some were even trying to attack it from underground. It was being bombarded from all sides.

His clones started to sweat, the barrier was meant to block chakra-reinforced attacks, swallowing the chakra and infusing it into itself making it unbeatable.

Madara knew sealing but he wasn't a master of the art and he could not come up with a new barrier out of the blue.

So pure physical strength was very taxing to shield against.

This got worse when the monsters started to pile up on the barrier. Using their superior numbers and strength to make the purple box start to collapse.

Madara cursed his young body once again , the glow grew brighter as his body started to change.

The barrier wavered blinking in and out as one of Madaras clones fell to a knee.

All 4 of them grit their teeth in strain, pushing their chakra bodies to the very limit to try and give Madara enough time.

The Uchiha churned his chakra, speeding it up to try and make the divine essence acclimate faster.

He screamed out in pain, forcing the level up was burning his chakra pathways. If he didn't level up in 10 minutes... he would just be a high-stat level 3 on the 60th floor.

He was calculating the exact time when he would level up when the purple barrier exploded.

His clones immediately poofed. The glow receded as he grabbed his fan.

But a black tentacle-like limb beat him to the punch as he was sent flying, breaking hundreds of snow-covered trees as he spun through the dungeon.

He immediately pulled his scythe off his back and blocked a clawed hand that was mere inches from his face. Madara took deep gulps of breath, his smile never wavered but his eyes did narrow in recognition.

"Cadmus was not the only being infected with your chakra that day, Ghost Of The Uchiha"
