Chapter 362: [Bonus Chapter]Grinding Endlessly

{However ultimately the choice is the host's, but if the host refuses the opportunities of the system, the host may not reach his full potential. It starts with the characteristics of Soul Creatures that you will gain and you have already gained a Negative Characteristic}

[Ava, we have gone over this. What type of creature I identify as doesn't matter as long as I am still myself and am in control of my body. I will always stick to my beliefs and what I am won't phase me in the slightest] declared Adam with great conviction.

Hearing that, Ava was pleased and continued what she was saying.

{The host already has a Soul Weapon and that has already made you a Soul Cultivator, but now the host will gain the Form Switching Characteristic that is unique to Soul Creatures. Not even all Soul Creatures have the capability to switch between a Soul Form and a Physical Form according to leaked information from the underworld. This means that the host has become quite a rare specimen, especially with everything else that the host has}

{Once the host is able to balance his Soul Cultivation and Physical Cultivation, which may take you quite a long time, the host will gain the Form Switching Characteristic. However, it should be quicker than your Physical Dungeon Hunting as the start will be against weak souls that you should be able to take down with your skills, knowledge and experience}

{The conditions for its use are that the body and mind are stable, meaning that the Soul Cultivation Level and Physical Cultivation Level need to be similar. It also requires you to be calm, unharmed and have a substantial amount of Soul Power, Internal Energy and External Energy left. If these conditions are not met, the Form Switching is still possible, but there may be consequences so the host must be careful}

{Along with that, the host has gained another skill that is an addition to the Charm Skill. With the Charm Skill, the host can manipulate and control the mind of humans that already feel some sort of way about you, are physically weaker than the host or have a weaker willpower. However it can also be used against other creatures and it is much more effective against wandering souls and ghosts who do not have a purpose and usually wish to end their suffering, so would quite easily become obedient to the host}

{There are many more things that the host will come to learn about, but the final thing the system wants to talk to the host about are people that cultivate their souls. There are those that use Negative Soul Skills and those that use Positive Soul Skills, but there is only one form of Soul Power that can be used in different ways. Unlike using Internal Energy, Soul Power is unique to each soul and most of the time, people will be restricted to one or a few skills, since it is very difficult to wield and master Soul Power}

{Excorcists and Shamans are probably the most common that you will come across and the host mustn't become complacent or reckless as once your soul is destroyed, so will the system and it will be almost impossible for you to regain the memories, experience and body that you currently have}

{They can manipulate souls, use attacks aimed at the soul and are also likely to have treasure and items that are effective against ghosts and souls. It is also likely that the underworld will send scouts to any area that you are in as you will be eliminating many wandering evil souls, spirits or whatever else you wish to call them. With so many unknown factors, along with the ancients and Evil Cultivation Organisation lurking in the shadows, the host must be careful}

Ava mentioned a few other small things and Adam was continuously being enlightened to new things that would overwhelm most others that heard it and with that had no time to waste.

He had just over half a year to get as powerful as he could and also catch up his Soul Cultivation to Physical Cultivation, leaving him no time to sit idly as he instantly began using everything that he had at his disposal.

There were so many things he wanted to explore, achieve and change in the universe and all of that required great power, which he was striving towards endlessly for the rest of the year.

Adam made sure that he trained every part of his body and analysed his own weaknesses and covered them to the best of his ability.

He mastered all the skills he had created or acquired along with trying to improve or fuse them to reach his full potential.

His lack of wide-range, explosive power had been solved with the Fire Elemental Affinity, but his lack of ranged combat skills was still an issue.

Because of that, he also took the time to learn a ranged skill that was given to him by his master, improved by the system, then further improved by Adam who used the base skill to form multiple other variants of it.

Adam was grinding endlessly and each and every day he could see his power, knowledge and skill improve, but he could also see his master continuing to decline.

Despite that, his master was proud, happy and ready to die, which Adam was glad about and supported.

He was not only fighting for himself, but for those he cared about, the legacy he was carrying from his master and the system and for the balance of the universe that was on the verge of collapse.

Once an all-out war began between both sides of the universe, even the underworld would be unable to stop it and Adam needed to get as powerful as he could before then.

What he was planning to achieve was bigger than New York, America and the entire world, and nothing would be able to stop Adam as he continued working as hard as he could.
