Adam's speed was his strongest point and his speed was already amazing, but he still had many more ways to improve it.

The Silent Ghost was using techniques and skills that he had learnt and mastered over many years to be able to display such speed, however as an overall cultivator, his body was weaker than that of Adam.

Despite the gap in age, the only thing that the Silent Ghost had over Adam was speed, as with the Dungeon System, Adam was likely to have a similar amount of experience, if not more.

While Adam was also confident that he would be able to close the gap in speed and was interested in seeing how much power the Silent Ghost would force him to unleash.

Using the Burst Movement Skill to launch himself towards the old man, Adam launched a powerful fist, and it was clear that they both wanted to fight without using any large-scale attacks.

If they did go all-out in terms of skills and explosive attacks, all the unconscious cultivators and the non-cultivators in the military base were likely to be killed in their battle.

Both of them didn't want that and moved their battle over to an emptier area of the military base and clashed at unbelievable speeds, both very skilled in close combat.

Major Carlson who was the cause of their battle in the first place could only see occasional blurs and feel large shock waves due to the collision of their attacks.

He was unable to see anything, and he felt so insignificant as he tried to understand what was occurring.

Their battle controlled whether he lived or not and it was evident to him that he had no say in the matter.

As they clashed, it became clear that the Silent Ghost was holding back his speed and power compared to his fast attack.

Even with the old man holding back, he had the upper hand and was landing much more attacks on Adam, while most of Adam's attacks would be dodged, and those that landed would be blocked by the old man.

Although he was most skilled in killing and assassination, a cultivator worked on improving themselves and their bodies in any way possible, which included mastering close combat.

Activating the power of the Stealth Ring, Adam began unleashing more and more speed, and the old man was shocked and amazed that Adam had been holding back as well.

The Silent Ghost increased his speed to match, and they were attacking each other hundreds of times every second, and each time they burst off the ground, their feet would leave imprints on the concrete floor.

Both of their bodies were incredible and both of them continued increasing their speed and power as they unleashed more of their trump cards and focused on the battle more and more.

Adam went on to activate the Muscular Enhancement Technique, which would boost his Speed, Resistance and Strength Stats depending on how much energy he used through the technique.

Along with that, he activated the power of the Mind Ring to improve his reflexes, thought speed and perceptivity as he began copying the Silent Ghost's movements.

With them, he felt as though his speed improved slightly along with the flow of his attacks.

It wasn't a skill or technique.

It seemed to be some sort of method that would allow one to sync all the small movements and muscle contractions in their body.

By harmonising them, the power and speed that the body was able to unleash would be improved slightly.

The old man was amazed by how quickly Adam was able to understand, learn and copy such a method in the short period of time that they had fought for.

It had taken him years to be able to master and use it coherently, and yet Adam had managed to do so in a matter of seconds.

The Mind Ring and the Hunter's Mind, along with Adam's experience, abundance of knowledge and natural perceptivity, made it so that learning most things could be done in short periods of time.

However, he was still unable to understand and grasp how exactly the old man was able to seemingly disappear and appear.

It wasn't anything like Cole's ability or his Step Skip Skill.

Adam was sure it was some sort of skill that relied on speed and a series of movements and uses of energy, however, he was yet to be able to observe it clearly.

"You have impressed me boy, but this still isn't enough to take me down. You have displayed great talent, but this is the end of the road for you,"

As he said that, the old man suddenly unleashed his full speed and took out the knives that he had been hiding in his sleeves, and stabbed them into Adam's stomach.

"Anyone that dares to stand against us must be put down. This isn't enough to kill you, but the blades are poisoned and I will take you back to the leader."

Adam who was stabbed by the two knives stumbled backwards and the poison acted instantly and he began to feel lightheaded, drained and fatigued.

"I expected nothing less from a dog of the US Cultivator Defence. If this is how you would like to battle, then let me show you true power,"

Adam was still confident and calm, but one thing that was unusual was that the old man intentionally avoided his vital points.

Despite that, even if the old man aimed to kill Adam, he would have been unable to do that.

Adam didn't want to have to use the Bloodlust Characteristic or his Devouring Death Daggers, but the old man had angered him.

His actions and words made it clear that he idolised the US Cultivator Defence and seemed to be there to capture Adam in the first place, which was why he wasn't trying to kill him.

However, that merely angered Adam further.

He looked down on him enough to not even fight to kill and believe he could capture him using knives and poison.

"This is true power"
