There is a shrine further south. If you wish to Buy Runescap go this path, you will encounter the Rust Monster and the Glass Spider Queen.
The queen lays poisoned eggs that go off when you hit them and they hit you back with poison. She's not too difficult to defeat but the poison can really slow you down. Enroute to the shrine, you will find a named Elemental Granite.
He's quite tough, but can go down easily with a combination of melee and offensive spells. From the shrine, taking the western route will lead you to another Elemental and slime. Head south and you will reach Sslysk's room. Aside from Sslysk, there will be some Troglodytes (one Shaman) inside that serve as bodyguards and they will attempt to slow you down.
This is just the right time to cast Glitter-dust and Web, just so you can slow them down first. Once they are all defeated, you can loot the chest in the room. Go back to shrine if you need to before advancing to the Depths of Darkness entrance just to further south of Sslysk's room.
Now that's the easy route. The tougher one is to take the west route upon entering the tunnel. If you are after Conquest and optional, or you just really want to meet all the creatures inside the tunnel, then this route is for you.
