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

Chapter 118 - 1 Month Later



Adam spent an entire month training arduously and only left his master's dojo for one day each week.

Every Sunday Adam would leave the dojo and would head back to the city. He would first go to the Silver Moon Auction House, where he would spar with Chase and give him tips, but he was less comfortable around Elizabeth and kept his distance from her and especially from Jaspal.

​​

Each and every time that he would spar with Chase, he would have to use his full power and he would only be able to slightly gain the upper hand to defeat Chase, without using his summons or any attacks that might threaten his life.

Every battle that he would have against Chase, Elizabeth and Jaspal would always be there to watch, and because of that, he didn't want to reveal any of his trump cards to them as they watched and were amazed by Chase's and Adam's growth.

After calming his mind and not using his Hunter's mind, which would sometimes inversely cloud his judge of character, he realised that he may have overreacted and that he didn't give Elizabeth enough information for her to be comfortable working with him.

In the same way that he was being careful and wanted to know everything about her, she was being careful and wanted to know everything about him, so a tracker on the motorbike that she gave him was expected.

Realising that, he eased his mind in terms of aggression and paranoia towards Eliazebth and kept their beneficial and friendly relationship, but still made sure to be careful as he didn't want to let down his guard, then be stabbed in the back.

Both of them benefitted from each other and seeing his progress, she was happy to have him on her side, while Adam was also glad about their partnership as he saw the progress and development of her organisation.

After the past month, they had reopened the Auction House and had 2 different types of auctions. One would hold cultivation or special items, which would need one to be a VIP to enter, while the other was for ordinary, luxury and rare goods that could be entered by anyone verified by the Auction House.

They had cultivated an additional 50 of the most talented and determined members of her organisation, along with her 5 personal guards, while they used the rest of the people that they had gathered to be ordinary guards and workers in the Auction House.

The progress and development were steady and she was on track to growing her organisation, all meanwhile Chase's cultivation was also progressing steadily.

Chase was always at a similar level to Adam or slightly below in terms of cultivation, and no matter how hard Adam tried to increase the gap between them, Chase continued to develop and stay on a similar level to Adam.

His reflexes and combat prowess were increasing each and every time that he fought against Adam as he took all the advice that Adam gave him and corrected himself the next time that they fought.

Chase had incredible potential, was obedient, upstanding and loyal and Adam was proud of Chase and glad that he had decided to follow him. He was the perfect subordinate that anybody could ask for.

After sparring with Chase, Adam would return to his apartment, where he would have a shower and get changed, then spend the rest of the day with his aunt.

His aunt seemed happy and was also in the progress of getting her life together, and every Sunday that Adam would come to visit her, she would be elated and would try and spend the whole day with him.

She didn't intrude in his life and knew that he was busy and that he was no longer the same boy that she raised, but seeing how he still treated her with respect, was successful and was grateful for everything that she had done for him, she felt as though her role as a carer was fulfilled.

Adam had thought about finding his aunt a cultivation method, but he didn't want her to get wrapped up in the world of cultivation, especially with its dangers and the competitive nature that cultivators had, which would lead them to do anything to increase their own strength.

Although he was yet to come across any powerful cultivators, he was laying low and didn't want to reveal himself to the world yet. However, he knew that he had caught the attention of somebody in the Maxwell Family once and didn't want that to happen again until he was confident enough in his strength.

He was lucky that they didn't decide to pursue him and he was still a lowly weak cultivator that might have interested them slightly, but a lone cultivator with strength and abilities that hadn't been seen before would cause a large commotion in the underground world of cultivation.

He would either be sought out by all the large cultivation families or could be targetted and killed before he was strong enough to pose them a threat.

All of his friends were busy most of the time and each had their own things that they were dealing with, but Adam would call them every Sunday and make sure to check in on Cole, Emma and Sarah, not wanting to be pulled apart from his friends again.

Sarah had already developed 2 properties in quite poor areas and had sold them with a 40% profit margin, and was progressing the business well. She took 20% of the profits for herself, gave 20% to Adam then reinvested the 60% left back into the business to continue its growth.

The 20% that Adam received was enough to cover his rent for that month and gave his aunt most of the rest of the money for her shopping and other costs, leaving him with some money in hand for any small things that he needed in between training.

With the Ethereal Recovery Skill and his cultivation, a week without food and water wasn't difficult, and he would eat as much as he could on the Sundays with his aunt to compensate for the other days.

Everything was progressing well and within that month, that was almost completely focused on increasing his strength, Adam was able to reach LVL 40, which was also known as rank 4.

However by no means was it easy and Adam worked hard to increase his strength putting in his blood, sweat and tears.
