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

Chapter 497 - Hyperactive Mental State

Surrounded by hundreds of cultivators that were all headed his way, the strength, numbers and capabilities of the cultivators seemed to be similar to that of the army he had previously faced. The one comprised of the Dale, For and Lin Families, but this time they were coming from all different directions, while it also wasn't clear where the leaders were.

The head of the Black Dragon Gang along with his three other powerhouses seemed to be skilled in concealment and Adam was unlikely to be able to sense them unless they got very close, which left him to deal with all of their men.

Leaving Huang Feng laying on the floor, not caring about his safety, Adam instructed Liao Wei to return to his flat and to not look out of his window no matter what. He needed to be able to fight without needing to worry about him, and staying inside and protecting his mother would make that much easier.

Adam stood in the middle of a road on the edge of the city, which didn't have many people and was known for its cheap housing, criminal activity and also for being dangerous.

Swarming towards him from all directions were cultivators all wearing leather jackets with the emblem of the Black Dragon Gang, along with most of them having tattoos. They all had aggressive auras and Adam sensed that the weakest out of them was still an Advanced Cultivator.

However, none of them were Master Cultivators, so there wasn't anyone that Adam was particularly intimidated or wary of other than the three powerhouses and the Gang Head, who had concealed themselves.

Seeing Adam standing there nonchalantly as if he was waiting for them, while also seeing that he matched the description of their target, Black Dragon Gang Members all began dashing towards him.

Most of them were armed with some sort of metal pole, knife or short blade that would be easy to conceal, while almost all of them were skilled and had been trained in at least one martial art.

The first to reach Adam was a high level Advanced Cultivator, and he launched a rapid kick towards Adam's head, which he dodged, but then followed it up with a second kick as he spun around in the air.

His kicks' explosive power, speed and technique were all quite impressive, along with how flexible and well-trained his body was, but he was still far from being a match for Adam who had effortlessly dodged his attacks.

He even dodged them while having his hands in his pockets, not even regarding them as worthy opponents and more focused on trying to sense where the three powerhouses and the head of the gang were.

Taking his right hand out of his pocket, he thrust his fist towards the man's face so quickly that it had only appeared to be a blur, and before he even knew what hit him, Adam had already put his hand back in his pocket.

The rapid punch was enough to instantly knock him unconscious and had smashed his face, leaving Adam's fist covered in blood.

Seeing that, the Black Dragon Gang members couldn't help but be intimidated and many of them hesitated and stopped charging towards him, however looking around at all the other members, they felt more confident as they began to chant.

They were chanting the famed words that their boss had used to encourage them before they had left, and they had the total advantage in terms of numbers, while they also had him surrounded, with nowhere to escape to.

As they continued chanting wildly, they continued their charge towards Adam from all directions, as they all launched all sorts of different attacks towards him at once.

However, it was to no avail and Adam was used to fighting against many opponents, while they were also much slower, weaker and less experienced than him, so taking them down was easy.

The Black Dragon Gang members began dropping like flies and Adam weaved between them, using only simple and single attacks to take them down, not bothering to use his full power against them.

There were so many attacks coming at him at once, while they were also Advanced Cultivators that were skilled, so it was quite challenging to get through their ranks without getting hit, however, it was also good training and practise for Adam.

He was using the Ghost Steps Skill to its maximum capabilities, while he had also activated his Mind Ring which allowed him to have the layout of the surrounding area imprinted in his mind, along with warning him of attacks instants before they were even unleashed.

It allowed his mind to enter a hyperactive state, and matched with the Hunter's Mind, aided him in entering a state of complete focus in which everything that occurred around him seemed to do so in slow motion.

In that state, he finally managed to find the three powerhouses of the gang that he had been looking for and were bunched up in the troops of the gang. Not only were they disguised, but they were also using an item to conceal their presence and cultivation. 

Their integration into the ranks of the Black Dragon Gang members had been so successful that even their closest subordinates couldn't recognise them and thought of them as just a random Black Dragon Gang member.

However, they couldn't hide from Adam who instead of looking for a powerful aura, searched for any concealment items being used, which would give off a faint aura that most would be unable to sense, but wouldn't get past his keen senses.

A perfect path towards the powerhouses that he had sensed was created within his mind, and to get there he needed to take down dozens of Black Dragon Gang members, while he also didn't want to make it obvious that he had found them.

Or he could use his Stealth Ring to become invisible, which he rarely did, but would be the perfect thing to use...
