While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

Chapter 396 - Scouring The City

Adam was relaxed and despite his great physical power and abilities, relaxing and not needing to exert his body sometimes was enjoyable.

Riding his motorcycle back to the city was very calming and relaxing for Adam as he cleared his mind and planned what he was going to do next, but the same couldn't be said for his friends.

They had all barely slept or rested the past three days and nights and were still far from finishing their duties.

The only things keeping them going were their willpower, the desire to impress Adam and the want to help, lead and improve the faction and themselves.

"Adam is returning. It seems that he was already finished with the breakthrough" announced Elizabeth suddenly while she was sitting with all the other leaders in a private conference room..

They were planning how they were going to split all the assets, resources, faction members and responsibilities between the faction, and Elizabeth's sudden announcement surprised them all.

"How do you know?" they all asked.

Elizabeth explained how she had placed a tracker on Adam's motorcycle while she was still naive, untrusting and being manipulated by her assistant.

She then went on to tell them that she believed that the motorcycle had been destroyed as all traces of it had suddenly disappeared, but now it suddenly appeared and was coming from the location that Adam had informed them about.

Elizabeth had managed to purchase all the land in that area and covered it up as a warehouse operation centre and company headquarters, but it was clear to the government involved in cultivation what was actually occurring.

The great families of New York had many good relations and needed connections in the government, so after they all became a part of the Sentinels Faction, their influence and connections were increased greatly.

"Should we go and get him or find someone to get him?" 

"I am sure he can find us on his own with the Soul Contract that he made with us" 

"But even with that, we need to re-establish communications with him as he has a habit of randomly disappearing"

The leaders completed their planning and structuring of the faction in the next hour and continued planning for the future until Adam arrived.

In that time, Adam had arrived at the city and used his Stealth Ring to conceal his presence completely and become invisible, then moved around the city to see how much everything had changed.

All those that formed a Blood Contract under his friends had also formed a contract with him and become linked to his King Ring, which made it easy to know where they all were and see how many had formed the contract.

He was impressed with the numbers, but knew that they were still too feeble, weak and incapable and most of them needed intense training to been be considered slightly useful to his cause.

Despite that, the progress they had made surpassed even his expectations and most of the city was explored by him in that short time.

As he dashed past people, and even cultivators, since he was invisible and his presence was completely concealed, they were unable to sense anything and he didn't even produce any wind as he moved, making it so that he could move around the city at his full speed without anybody knowing.

Even heat sensors, cameras or any other way that there were of detecting people would be unable to pick up on his presence and even high level arrays would barely be able to alert others of his presence.

After he was done looking around the city, and in the process quickly eliminating cultivators that had escaped from the takeover of the city, Adam appeared in the conference room his friends sat in.

There was some blood on his palms, which was unavoidable after crushing a few dozen cultivators with mere slashes of his hands using the Hand Blade Skill that his master had taught him.

"Adam, finally. What took you so long to get here?" they asked as he appeared, expecting him to suddenly appear out of nowhere.

However when they looked at his hands, it was clear to them what he had been doing, but they were unsure who exactly he had been fighting against and killing.

"Just some mere loose ends that I needed to get rid of. There were a few cultivators in underground locations, hidden rooms in buildings and the sewers who were clearly enemies seeking to escape the Sentinels Rein" he said, seeing them all look at his hands.

An instant later, all the blood on his hands disappeared after being burnt by Adam's flames, and Wayde who was skilled and experienced in the use of the Fire Element was amazed by Adam's precise control of fire energy along with the heat and power that his fire emanated.

"I will teach you the Blade Hand Skill that I used when I train you guys and you can learn it yourself using the manual in the secret base. There are hundreds of skills for you guys to choose from, and they aren't the weak and simple skills you guys are used to" he said to them, reigniting the eagerness and excitement to begin their training.

"But for now give me a general report of the past few days and any news. I need information and I am also expecting this progress speed to be maintained and even improved" stated Adam.

He was acting as their leader and not their friend at that moment and they all nodded their heads and began giving a report of their activities over the past few days and also what they were planning on doing next.

The report was detailed, but didn't include all the official and boring parts that Adam had told them not to report to him.

Each of them reported what they had done and after each of them spoke for a few minutes, Adam was satisfied with the progress, but knew that they were still long away from where he was aiming for them to be.
