BXBX NOVEL Chapter 466 - Drop The Act
"Even in that state, you are able to still observe your surroundings and can hear me right now, can\'t you," said Shinka\'s uncle as he approached Adam\'s dormant soul.
"I will just send him to the soul sea and he will eventually be reincarnated," he said as he put his hand out to do so, however before he did, Shinka suddenly stopped him.
"Uncle stop, that is my friend,"
Her words were absurd, and it was unheard of for someone from the underworld to be friends with what seemed to be a random Master Level Mortal Soul.
However, she was completely serious, and she even seemed prepared to fight him in order to protect the dormant soul, which shocked him.
"Just who is this dormant soul?" he asked, seeing the determined look in her eyes.
She explained some of what happened, skipping out the parts that she knew that Adam would want to keep secret and even went as far as to say that if he didn\'t save Adam, that she would give up on recovering the clan.
"You would really do that far for this random soul?"
"He is the reason I was able to change, and he was the one that helped me draw out the power of my horns and weakened the Evil Soul. While he is also someone I trust and my friend, so quickly save him before the damage to his soul is irreversible,"
Her uncle sighed to himself and it seemed that there was no changing her mind, while if he truly was able to hold out against a Grandmaster Evil Soul as a mere early Master Level Soul, he was truly impressive.
Along with that, if he was the one that was the cause for Shinka\'s sudden and drastic change and improvements, then he was more than worthy of being saved.
Adam believed that it would take at least a few weeks to recover his soul to how it was before and that he would have to focus on strengthening his Physical Form in the meantime, since the damage his soul sustained was very severe.
However, he was shocked and amazed to suddenly feel completely rejuvenated and all the damage his soul had sustained was instantly completely recovered by Shinka\'s uncle.
Adam wouldn\'t even be able to damage that figure before him in his wildest dreams and he had never expected he would come across someone so powerful, so early along his journey as a cultivator.
However, he knew that if the figure before him wanted him dead, there would be no escape and even the system couldn\'t save him, so as soon as his soul was recovered, he bowed towards the man.
It seemed to be the characteristics of Shinka\'s clan, but her uncle was incredibly large with a very muscular figure and had the same skin and hair colour as her, along with much larger horns, that didn\'t feel as special as hers, but were unbelievably powerful.
"I humbly thank you for saving my life,"
The large figure had a very deep voice and intimidating pressure, but he surprisingly began to laugh as he patted Adam\'s back.
Each of his light pats shook Adam\'s entire soul to its core, but he was relieved that Shinka\'s uncle seemed to not have any malicious intentions towards him.
Shinka felt the same way, and she never expected that her uptight uncle would act in such a friendly manner towards Adam.
According to the laws of the underworld, contact with living begins was forbidden, especially mortals, and yet such a powerful figure from the underworld was acting casually with a Mortal.
Healing Shinka\'s soul as well, he decided that he would give Adam a chance and spare him, believing that he was merely a random wandering soul that had befriended and was advising Shinka.
If he found out that Adam could switch between Physical and Soul Forms just like they could and all the things he was capable of and planning on accomplishing, he definitely wouldn\'t have the same decision.
Luckily Shinka was intelligent enough to conceal most of those things, but it still seemed as though he wasn\'t completely convinced.
"Shinka, stay here for a moment. I would like to speak with your friend."
Shinka wanted to refuse and request to be there while they spoke, but before she could even say anything, it was too late.
Adam suddenly felt himself be grabbed by a giant, invisible hand and the next thing he knew it, he was across the world from where he previously was.
They were in the middle of nowhere, floating in the middle of the sea and he wanted to speak with Adam in private and understand what exactly Adam wanted with Shinka.
"What would you like to speak about, senior?" asked Adam respectfully.
"Drop the act, I can tell that although you are in awe of my power, your eyes are not submitting to my power in the slightest. From what I can sense, you seem to have formed a Soul Contract with Shinka, so tell me clearly. What do you want from her and what were the terms of the Soul Contract?"
Adam dropped the act and although he was still in awe of the being before him that had enough power to destroy entire planets, he hadn\'t done anything wrong and wasn\'t planning on submitting.
[Ava. if everything goes badly, will the Dungeon System always be bound with my soul?].
{Yes, there is nothing to worry about. But I would advise you not to anger the figure before you as he is completely suppressing all of his power, otherwise, the entire world would feel his power and presence}
With that, Adam felt much less fear and since he had already been revealed to Shinka\'s uncle, he needed to deal with him directly.
Adam felt as though he was trying to match up to a mountain in size, but he had no choice but to make his intentions and worth clear, otherwise, it was likely that his life would be ended and there was nothing that he could do about it.
