Chapter 440 - Impressive Resolve
"What about how you disappear like that? Can you at least tell us about that?" asked Cole, who truly desired to understand how Adam was able to do so.
If he was able to understand and use how Adam was able to disappear, then he would be able to greatly increase his capabilities.
"How do I disappear like that? That is a good question. "
"Here is some information about souls. There is much more to the existence of living beings than you think and it can be argued that one never dies, so after you all read this, you might get an idea and better understanding of ."
As he said that, they were all baffled and shocked, since the topic of souls had never been explored by them and they had never been given any definitive information about them.
Adam threw a book that was quite thick over to them and it had some of his master's information and research about souls, which he improved and changed slightly.
Before they could even read the book or ask any of the other questions, Adam walked towards the exit of the sparring room.
"Wait. Even if souls have something to do with how you are able to disappear, it still doesn't make sense. If souls truly exist and match with what I have heard and seen before, then it is a part of a living being. It cannot cause one's body to disappear and even if you were able to get your soul to leave your body, you would still be unable to make your physical body disappear," he called out as Adam was about to leave.
"Just make sure that you study about souls and do your own research. There are cultivators that can cultivate their souls and you can't be defenceless against their attacks," he said, ignoring Cole's rebuttal.
Cole was clearly getting annoyed and really wanted to know how Adam did it.
If it was something that Cole could do or benefit from, Adam would have told him, however, the truth would merely overwhelm Cole and there truly wasn't much of a way for him to explain it, anyway.
"Next time we spar, I won't be holding back, so please get stronger. I always say that I won't be holding back, but I always end up doing so and I think I made that clear to you all," said Adam, wanting to tease, but also encourage them before he left.
"And as for how I truly disappear. I think I watched a documentary on it somewhere when I was at school. It was one of the days that you were absent, Cole," he added before disappearing to them by entering his Soul Form.
"That damned bastard, never giving us a straight answer," cursed Angela.
"He is probably listening and watching us right now, and we really should do as he said. If there truly are those that cultivate their soul, then there are likely to be many dangers that we are unable to face and we must be prepared for anything. "
As he said that, Cole picked up the book and began cursing Adam, having a feeling that Adam was still there watching.
Adam in his Soul Form was dying of laughter as he watched Angela and Cole swearing at him, despite them not actually knowing if he was there.
"For now, we need to get stronger and, just like he said, he truly was holding back. At the end of the fight, he still seemed able to fight, and I didn't even see him out of breath or fazed by a single attack, apart from the last one that we nearly managed to get him with"
"Yes, and he also didn't use those scary daggers that he used to slaughter those from the Lin, Dale and Ford Families," added Angela.
"We really do not know much about Adam and he is likely to have other things that he is capable of and hiding from us. All I know is that I want to become stronger, make this faction stronger and be able to repay Adam for the opportunities he gave me, so I will be getting back to my training," stated Elizabeth.
She turned back to see that all of them had calmed down and had their fists clenched.
They worked so hard over the past week, and yet they still felt useless and as though nothing had changed.
They were still weak and knew nothing, relying on Adam for all their knowledge, facilities, and advice.
They wanted to become more independent and not only no longer rely on Adam, but also repay him for what he had done for them.
To do that, they needed to work even harder, and that was exactly what they were planning to do.
"Elizabeth, you are the best at getting information and after we all read this book about souls, please gather any information about souls and also see if you can purchase any methods to cultivate one's soul. Along with that, we need to prepare ourselves for facing the Blood Moon Group and finding out as much as we can about them, which we hope you can do for us," they all said to Elizabeth as she turned to them.
With a smile, she said that she was planning on doing so anyway and that she would be relying on them to carry some of her weakness, as even with Adam's help, she still knew that in a direct confrontation, she wasn't a match for any of them in combat.
They all didn't waste any time and got right into strengthening themselves of the faction in some way.
Their resolve impressed Adam, who watched what had occurred, and he was glad that his investment in them had turned out to be one that would bring him, the faction and them many benefits.
"Time to get out of here. It has been a week of being stuck here and I didn't even enter the Physical or Soul Dungeon," he mumbled to himself.
After flying out of the secret base in his Soul Form, Adam returned to his Physical Form and paid respects to his master, before heading towards the city.
