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

Chapter 480 - Taste Of Your Own Medicine



Marco was using the Bombardment against Adam again, trying to damage him as much as possible before he used the Step Skip Skill to escape it again, but this time Adam didn't need to use it.

Although Adam had been injured and weakened a lot by sustaining the Bombardment multiple times, from it, he had managed to understand and recognise how it all worked.

Instead of Marco's method of boosting his physical capabilities, Adam could use the Bloodlust Characteristic, so in theory, he should be able to pull off the same thing.

All that was left was to try it and just as Marco had begun his bombardment, he suddenly sensed it fail and Adam struck his stomach with the Delayed Burst Fist and launched him sliding backwards.

Marco was shocked and never expected that Adam would be able to break his bombardment, while Adam was out of breath and battered badly, but felt as though it was only a matter of time until he won the battle.

"Now it's time for you to have a taste of your own medicine," bellowed Adam as he launched himself towards Marco.

Adam had only one chance at pulling it off and winning the battle, while although Marco was the creator of the battle style, it didn't mean that he would be able to break out of it and Adam had also made his own additions to it.

Starting with a simple fist, as soon as Marco blocked it, Adam began a bombardment of his own and both Marco and Milo were amazed by what they were seeing.

Adam in a matter of minutes had found all the weaknesses and also managed to copy one of his battle styles, along with somehow boosting his power and having an extremely durable body.

Everything about him seemed amazing and there was no obvious weakness, which made it so that he couldn't be taken down quickly, and in that time, Adam would be able to learn from the attacks of his opponent and find a way to defeat them.

Despite the power boost that Marco had experienced by pushing his body to its limits, it still wasn't enough for him to be able to break out of Adam's bombardment.

Adam's attacks gained momentum and had found that the key to the bombardment was to follow up attacks using the contact force of the previous attack, so that the power and speed of that attacks continued to improve.

After almost a hundred attacks that Adam unleashed in a few seconds, Marco was battered to a pulp and launched flying away after Adam ended the bombardment.

There was no way for Marco to win the battle any longer and although Adam was fatigued and injured, victory was in sight, so there was no need to continue attacking and injuring him.

Marco however didn't give up and although he felt as though winning was no longer possible, backing down without a fight was not something that he would do.

Adam was a great opponent and had nearly beaten him fair and square, but the battle wasn't over until Marco could no longer fight and it seemed as though getting him to give up was a lost cause.

"This is a private match and don't worry about your ranking. I will treat you well when you join me, just back down," 

Adam's words were genuine, and he didn't want to have to hurt him any more, while he also didn't want to have to push his body any further without any need to.

However, his words didn't manage to get through to Marco who charged towards him and was his spirit and willpower were the only things keeping his body going as he launched a weak fist towards Adam's stomach.

Adam didn't think much of the fist and could easily dodge it, then was going to use it to flip Marco and slam him onto the ground, but suddenly as the attack neared him, Marco's speed and power abruptly increased.

They increased even further than they were when Marco was in his peak state during their battle and Adam blurted out a curdle of blood as he was struck in the stomach.

He was launched upwards into the air, then Marco burst up into the air and struck Adam downwards with both his arms, slamming him into the ground and causing him to vomit out even more blood.

Adam could feel his consciousness fading and the power of those attacks were not something that Marco should be able to pull off, especially after the wounded state that he was in.

Even Marco appeared confused by his sudden increase in power, which made it clear to Adam what exactly had occurred.

Seeing that Adam had basically won the battle, Milo who was observing from the side couldn't watch and do nothing.

He couldn't afford to lose the chance to get Rex and Adam under his control, who were such great specimens that would help greatly help his research.

Inconspicuously he had streamed a large amount of energy into a small needle that he flung with perfect accuracy to strike a pressure point in the back of Marco's neck.

Through his many years of researching the human body and methods of increasing one's power, he found a way to increase one's power for a short period of time by puncturing that pressure point.

One wouldn't feel it, but one's body would automatically enter a strengthened state in which all pain, hesitation or fear is removed and the body unleashes hidden strength in a final bid to survive.

Along with that, he had also streamed some of his own energy into the needle which was more than enough to turn the tides of the battle, while the needle was too deeply embedded into his neck and thin to be seen even by cultivators.

Marco despite the effects of Milo's puncturing couldn't help but hesitate for a moment, feeling that his freakish boost in power was unnatural and was likely to do with Milo cheating, but it was only for a moment.

That particular pressure point would make one's instincts take over their mind and Marco had done well to even realise the truth behind it, but it was too late.
