Chapter 390 - Future Potential Part 2
Cole received the highest talent grading that the crystal could possibly test, meaning that his potential could still be higher than that and it was still yet to be tested.
Angela was still not mentally strong enough to be a great cultivator and yet had received such great results, and he also felt that there was more to her Water Elemental Affinity, so she still had a lot of space to develop.
Chase had never had his talent grading tested, but had great cultivation speed and perceptivity, along with a very durable body and Unique Skill. Along with that, he had the Monk Inheritance and was a battle and training fanatic, making him a perfect fit for being a cultivator.
Elizabeth had her special constitution that she was yet to fully explore and there was still so much that she hadn\'t experienced or learnt about that would greatly increase her capabilities.
Lastly, Wayde had proven his skill both in terms of wielding Fire Energy and using weaponry, but Adam still felt that he could become even more capable by fusing those two things.
One must always continue to find ways to progress and improve themselves, otherwise, they will be left behind by cultivators in their generation and will struggle to catch back up.
Adam knew this and also knew that all of his friends had great future potential and he was planning to help them unlock their hidden potential, which would benefit them and the future of the faction.
.He didn\'t appoint them for no reason and his instincts were telling him that although they may not currently know it, they have a great future if they work hard and Adam also didn\'t know what he was capable of until he gained the system.
After they left back to the city, Adam flew back to the secret base that his master created in the mountains outside the city and used the Burst Movement Skill to increase his speed.
Instead of using Internal and External Energy to release bursts from his body that would allow him to have great manoeuvrability and speed, he was using his Soul Form and Soul Power to do so.
He flew parallel to the ground and released bursts from his feet and palms to thrust himself forwards and further increase his speed.
Returning to the secret base, Adam wanted to test out the barrier array that his master had created around the secret base and was yet to use and upon activating it, Adam could see a barely visible, transparent barrier.
He was only able to see the barrier because of his precise vision and perceptivity that allowed him to see the slight change in the refraction of light, but even Advanced Cultivators were unlikely to see the barrier.
Adam then tested whether Soul Forms could get through the barrier without any resistance and was impressed and glad to find that his Soul Form was repelled, as that meant that the barrier was even greater than he thought.
Reverting to his Physical Form, Adam punched the barrier with as much force as one could expect from a peak Advanced Cultivator and the barrier was unaffected in the slightest.
That was already impressive enough, but Adam still wanted to test out its full capabilities as the barrier array that his master had formed took him many years to master and put in place.
All the arrays that his master formed were self-functioning using the energy gathering arrays to supply them with energy and there were thousands of interlinked arrays in the area that Adam didn\'t realise until he studied arrays.
Even with his current level of array master, the barrier array was still above his capabilities and although he understood most of it, forming it himself was another story.
Despite that, he was confident that he could fix small parts of the array that might be damaged if he was able to break through it and was also sure that he could link it back up to the rest of the arrays that secured the secret lair.
Gathering up a large amount of Internal Energy into his fist, which was most of what he had left after the battle and using up a lot of Fire Energy, Adam struck the barrier with his full power that was enough to eliminate even Master Cultivators, and was impressed to find that the barrier seemed unshaken.
From that, he estimated that it would take at least 10 Grandmaster Cultivators to break the barrier, which meant that it was very secure for the time being and even hundreds of Advanced Cultivators wouldn\'t pose a threat to the barrier.
Despite that, it still used up a lot of energy and couldn\'t be held up for long and would be weakened the longer it was used each time for, so Adam deactivated the barrier and entered the Secret Lair.
Over the past year, his master had made sure to show him all the functions of the secret lair he had built and there were multiple underground parts and secret rooms that stored many valuables.
Only Adam had access to such things and he wanted to keep it that way, as he still needed his own secrets even after sharing the secret lair as a base with the other leaders of the faction.
Adam took a short while to cultivate and use the Ethereal Recovery Skill to recover his body to its peak state, then headed straight to the Energy Chamber.
It was a large clear room that had a bed in it, as it was where his master would sleep after his body was on the verge of death, and within it were many energy gathering arrays.
There was the highest concentration of energy in that room and it could also be thought of as the battery of all the arrays that his master had set up.
[There is no point delaying it and I have to complete them now. The Earth Mortal Physical and Soul Dungeon will be completed today and I will be promoted to a Sky Mortal, also known as a Master Cultivator] said Adam to himself as he entered the Physical Dungeon.
