Adam suppressed his urge to scream in pain as he was forcefully awakened from his unconscious state, and Wayde and Angela were shocked by his sudden awakening.

"What happened?" asked Angela seeing Adam's face that clearly showed that he was in immense pain.

It was the first time that Adam had sued the Bloodlust Characteristic to such an extent in reality and he could tell that his body was suffering from exhaustion and had been overexerted, which had damaged him and caused him to feel excruciating pain throughout his body.

"I am not sure, his wounds from the battle are not that serious, so it must be something else causing him pain" answered Wayde who was also confused and unsure what was happening to Adam.

Adam's body was sweating profusely and his long black hair was a mess as he struggled to sit up and slowly began to deal with the pain.

Adam had been able to handle the pain much better than previously.

Although the pain he was experiencing was weaker than the pain he had felt when he had used both the Bloodlust Characteristic's extensions in the dungeon, his body had actually been damaged by it.

The last time when he was suffering the backlash of the Bloodlust Characteristic, he was only suffering the mental and spiritual backlash from his Dungeon Form, but this time, it was also the physical backlash.

It took Adam a few seconds to be able to sit up and although his body was sweating profusely and veins on his neck and temple were bulging, he didn't let out a single sound and was handling the pain.

"What incredible pain tolerance" mumbled Wayde who was amazed by how Adam was dealing with the pain.

He was unsure what was causing Adam to feel pain, but he was sure that it was on an extremely high level and yet Adam was able to handle it without making a single noise.

"I am fine do not worry" managed to utter Adam after a few minutes of adapting to the pain around his body.

The pain hadn't gotten any weaker, but Adam was adapting to it and dealing with it as he gave Wayde and Angela a reassuring smile.

It was still quite obvious on Adam's face that he was in pain as he kept wincing, but it was also clear that he was dealing with it much better as time went on and it was a remarkable thing to watch.

Adam's willpower was incredible and he was overcoming the pain and was stabilising his mind, but his body was still disorientated and he needed to recover.

He knew that the Ethereal Recovery Skill would recover his HP, but he was quite sure that it wouldn't remove the pain that he was feeling as he hadn't lost much HP in his battle.

The Bloodlust Characteristic would burn anything to grant the user unlimited power so that the user could fulfil their desire to kill. Luckily Adam hadn't used too much of its power as he may have damaged his cultivation and or caused irreversible damage.

[My cells all around my body seem to be burnt out and although the Ethereal Recovery Skill will help, it won't help me recover from the backlash of the Bloodlust Characteristic. What I need is lots of sugar or any other form of glucose to provide energy to my cells, and lots of protein to assist my body's recovery] thought Adam to himself.

The Ethereal Recovery Skill would use his body's vitality to rapidly recover, but if his body's energy and vitality were exhausted, it wouldn't be of much use.

While absorbing energy into his body also wouldn't do him much good, as he would struggle to handle and control the energy in the state he was in, and it would only cause him more pain and injuries.

"Can you bring me a large bucket, lots of sugar and lots of water? Also, I need lots of protein, any time will do" requested Adam.

They would obviously do what they could to help him recover, but his request was quite unusual and it wasn't what one would expect a cultivator to request when trying to recover.

"Why do you need that? Wouldn't it be better for you to eat a recovery pill?" asked Angela.

"I don't need the recovery pill and the impurities are quite annoying and time-consuming to deal with. It wouldn't help my situation as it isn't my energy storages that were exhausted themselves, but my entire body and I need something to kick start my body, so that I can recover" answered Adam.

His answer seemed unusual to them and didn't make sense, but he was sure that he was right as he felt that his cells themselves had been fatigued and damaged after being pushed past their limits.

The damage wasn't visible, but was very painful and bothersome, but also wasn't too difficult to recover from if he had large amounts of glucose, protein and slowly began to use the Ethereal Recovery Skill.

"Angela, stay here with Adam. I will go and get what he wants" said Wayde as he left them in the room and rushed to the closest store.

"Adam, what happened? Your injuries don't seem too bad, but you seem to be in a lot of pain?" asked Angela.

"I just pushed myself a bit too hard in the battle and as you know, my cultivation level is quite low, so my body couldn't handle the power" answered Adam honestly.

Hearing his answer, she immediately understood as if she was to use the full power of her elemental affinity when her body couldn't handle it, she would suffer an extreme backlash. She hadn't experienced it herself, but had been warned about it and could imagine that it was similar to what Adam was experiencing.

She had so many questions about the abilities that Adam displayed in the battle, and she had always suppressed her curiosity in the past. But seeing as they were alone and had just fought together, she felt as though it was the perfect chance to find out more about Adam.
