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

Chapter 449 - Battle Of Speed Freaks Part 3

Withdrawing his Devouring Daggers, the Silent Ghost was instantly wary of and intimidated by the blades that appeared in Adam's hands.

They gave off an aura of death and destruction, while his instinctive feeling was to avoid allowing him to land an attack with them at any cost.

Along with the Devouring Death Daggers, Adam began using the power of the Bloodlust Characteristic and could feel his blood boil.

His heart began beating at rapid paces and all his senses, along with his entire body, were enhanced and all he could feel was the urge to kill.

Controlling the Bloodlust Characteristic was much easier for Adam after using it for so long, however when he directed his bloodlust towards a specific person, his body would stop at nothing to kill them.

"You were the one that was seeking death, so do not blame me after your life ends here"

After saying that, Adam suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of the Silent Ghost

The Step Skip Skill.

Adam's movement was instant, and it became clear to the Silent Ghost that he had underestimated Adam who still had many capabilities.

It was different to his Ghost Steps Skill, and it was more like he was teleporting than moving.

However, the Silent Ghost was still expecting his poison to have an effect on Adam, which it did.

If it wasn't for the poison, the Silent Ghost would have no chance of avoiding Adam's slash after he appeared before him.

Adam's movements and body had become more sluggish due to the poison, but he knew that with the Step Skip Skill, he would have the element of surprise that would allow him to make up for it.

The Silent Ghost narrowly avoided Adam's attack, but the shallow cut he dealt the old man was enough and was exactly what he was hoping for.

The Bloodlust Characteristic had reduced some of the numbing and paralysing effects of the poison, but his body was still feeling heavy and sluggish.

However, after slashing the old man, Adam smiled and began siphoning some of the old man's vitality, energy and blood, using it to recover his own and reduce the effects of the poison.

The Silent Ghost was amazed and had never come across an ability that could allow one to absorb energies, blood and vitality from others, but he couldn't help but become even warier of Adam.

It was an extremely dangerous and powerful ability, while it would allow Adam to continuously recover and grow stronger.

Despite that, the cut that Adam dealt him was only small and wasn't enough to siphon a significant amount of energy, but it was enough to handle most of the poison's effects.

The daggers and siphoning ability that Adam was wielding, were incredible, however to the Silent Ghost, what was more amazing and frightening, was the Step Skip Skill.

It would basically allow Adam to teleport to anywhere within his mental range and he was yet to understand the limitations, but couldn't help but wonder who exactly he was and how he had so many abilities and hidden capabilities.

The Silent Ghost could no longer hold back against Adam and was using his full power, speed and all his available hidden capabilities, while Adam still had many more things in his arsenal that he didn't need to use against him.

'How can an early Master Cultivator that has only recently risen to fame be capable of so much? He formed a faction, took over a city and has the power to rival and even defeat high level Master Cultivators. Just what is this person?'

'Could he be from one of those hidden sects from that place'

The Silent Ghost couldn't help but be more curious about Adam and he was initially there in order to find Adam, however, he never thought that he would be battling against him and forced to use his full power in order not to be killed.

"Your paralysing poison has no effect on me and do you have any last words?" asked Adam as he pulled out the two knives that had been stabbed into his stomach.

To the Silent Ghost's surprise, Adam's wounds were healing at a visible rate and the wounds stopped bleeding and closed within seconds.

Since the Silent Ghost didn't respond, Adam launched himself towards him and without even needing to use a Transformation, relying on his enhancement techniques, Stealth Ring and Bloodlust Characteristic to improve his speed, Adam speed matched that of the Silent Ghost.

Along with that, he was beginning to recognise patterns and understand the opponent's Ghost Step Skill, so the Silent Ghost completely lost the upper hand and began being overwhelmed by Adam's speed and power.

In his younger days, the Silent Ghost was a renowned and feared assassin worldwide that could even silently and instantly kill Master Master Cultivators with ease, but he had gotten old since then and his body had not developed any further.

All he felt was frustration as he felt overwhelmed by Adam's raw power and each time he was slashed, felt his body be drained and feel weaker.

Once feeling as though nobody in the world could threaten him, able to move at speeds that most could barely even see, the Silent Ghost felt completely overpowered and as though he was no match for Adam.

When Adam started fighting seriously, there was almost nobody that could stop him and the Silent Ghost shouldn't have gotten in his way.

They were Speed Freaks, jumping around and clashing at unbelievable speeds, with each of their movements and attacks causing large shock waves.

Since they both specialised in speed and Adam could improve his speed through his various abilities and capabilities, it was a great battle.

However, upon activating his Bloodlust Characteristic and using his Devouring Death Daggers, Adam completely decimated the old man.

Within 10 seconds, Adam had slashed the Silent Ghost dozens of times, each time weakening and draining his opponent even further.

The Silent Ghost was weakened, couldn't run away and couldn't overwhelm Adam with speed anymore, so could no longer put up a fight.

However, just as Adam was about to finish off their battle, something completely unexpected occurred.
