After experiencing Adam's power once and seeing him talk to Nathaniel as equals, the Silent Ghost knew that he had no chance against him, so didn't try to resist as Adam dragged them far away from the vehicles that they had taken down the mountains.

"Use this to communicate with me telepathically and answer all my questions," said Adam as he placed a rune in his hand.

They both carried identical runes that when supplied energy, would form a mental link that would allow them to communicate telepathically.

"First off, tell me anything and everything you know about Nathaniel,"

"Honestly, I do not know much about him other than he killed the person that was previously in charge of the US Cultivator Defence and climbed his way up without any backers. He is very calculating, mysterious and ruthless, while he detests the ancients who control them and always makes sure to maintain power,"

"Interesting. So you mean to tell me that if I were to kill him, I could take all his power and everything he owns,"

"No, if you did so, you would become an enemy of the ancients and of the remnants of the US Cultivator Defence. He has secured his position, while killing him is impossible anyway, so just forget about even attempting to do that,"

Adam asked him a few more questions, and from them, he realised just how secretive Nathaniel was.

The Silent Ghost barely knew anything about him and since he was an old man that was declining and didn't have much of a future, he was kept out of the loop on most things.

"Alright, thanks for your information. For now, let's eliminate our targets, then I will carry on with what I need to do, and you can return to whatever you want to do,"

"You handle the Advanced Cultivators and I will handle the Master Cultivators. We will split up here and I am trusting your capabilities, and after I finish my part of the task, I will leave and completing the rest is your problem," decided Adam.

"Are you sure?" asked the old man.

Peak Ascendant Cultivators, even if they were skilled and powerful evil cultivators, could be taken down with relative ease by the Silent Ghost, while 3 high level Master Cultivators would be much harder to eliminate.

"Yes, old man and make sure you don't die and maybe one day you can meet your descendants. I am sure they would appreciate your support and you are such a lonely and pathetic man. Chasing power your entire life and being a dog to the rich and powerful, slaughtering others without a care in the world as long as you are paid. Where has that got you now?"

"Tell Nathaniel that you want to join the Sentinels Faction and that I am willing to allow you to join, and I am sure he would let you do so. Find Cole Epstein and form a blood contract with him to show your loyalty, then you can live a truly fulfilling life with a purpose," stated Adam before dashing off into the distance.

The old man knew that everything that Adam said was true and was planning on doing exactly as he said after completing his task, and he could finally retire and lead the rest of his life in a manner that he could be proud of.

"What about your vehicle?" called out the Silent Ghost.

"I don't want it," said Adam, who didn't want to rely on anything given by Nathaniel and would much rather move on foot.

Adam didn't move at his full speed, but his speed was still faster than cars as he dashed in the direction of the last sign of his targets.

Continuing on with that speed, Adam found something that was unbelievable when he reached the area that the last trace of the Evil Cultivators left behind, he found three dead bodies.

They were the bodies of three high level and powerful Master Cultivators, while from their bodies and the residual energy he could sense within them, he could tell that they were evil cultivators.

Although their appearances had been distorted after being drained, they fit the description, but Adam knew it was too good to be true and when he looked closer, he observed that only two of them had actually been killed.

It seemed as though one of them had turned on the other two, killing them, then consuming their Evil Souls in order to strengthen their own Evil Soul.

As from their body, Adam was sure they were Soul Cultivators and with his Soul Vision, could sense and see residual Evil Soul Power.

An Evil Soul that was already a Master Level Evil Soul and consumed two other Master Level Evil Souls was something that Adam felt was impossible for him to defeat without surpassing his limits and pushing his Soul Form to the brink of destruction.

[Nathaniel must have known they were soul cultivators and must have known what they were going to do. He must be trying to test me with this and the truth is, this is something that is currently past me and the Evil Soul may even have become a Grandmaster Evil Soul]

Despite that, Adam wasn't planning on giving up on eliminating the Evil Soul, not because he wanted to help Nathaniel, but because of how dangerous and powerful it was.

If the Evil Soul returned to the Blood Moon Group, it would be a big help to their power, while it was likely to kill many along the way and consume the soul of many living people.

Since killing by consuming one's soul left no trace, it would appear as though the person merely died of a heart attack.

However, soul cultivators and knowledgeable people would be able to tell that although the body was unharmed, the essence of life within the body had been sucked out.

To deal with such a being, Adam felt like he required assistance, and one person came to mind.
