BXBX NOVEL Chapter 469 - Secret Lab
On the border of Russia, Adam was interested to see what the country would like and the type of cultivators he would come across.
Most of Russia\'s land was not lived on by people because of the harsh conditions and the sheer size of the country, but those were the areas that he wanted to investigate and explore the most.
Such harsh climates were the perfect natural barrier for any cultivators, while it was also possible for him to find some beasts in reality and defeat them.
His progress had been rapid, and he hadn\'t wasted much time along the way, either training or surveying his surroundings, wanting to grow as much as he could.
Shinka\'s uncle and Nathaniel had put the universe\'s power scale into perceptive.
Currently, he was still a mere ant in the grand scheme of things and his friends were beginning to catch up to his power with the sudden development that he helped them achieve.
He had no choice but to grow stronger and wasn\'t planning on wasting any opportunities as he began dashing off the ship he was on and towards the nearest city along the border.
To Adam\'s surprise, it wasn\'t long before he came across some cultivators and the ordinary-looking soldiers that were patrolling around the border were actually Advanced Cultivators.
They couldn\'t sense anything from Adam, since he was using his Form Concealment, but it was still impressive for a country to have Advanced Cultivators as mere border guards.
It made Adam even more eager and interested to explore the country and the first place he had in mind was the facility that his aunt had supposedly destroyed and eliminated everyone within.
There weren\'t details as to what the facility was actually for and why his aunt was there in the first place, but it gave a rough location of where it once was and Adam wanted to check it out.
Adam felt no need to go through the long processes of entering the country, and used the Step Skip Skill, his great speed and the invisibility that he could use through his Stealth Ring to get past.
All those in official soldier uniforms had cultivated in some way and weren\'t normal, which was surprising and made Adam wonder just how many cultivators they had and what he could expect in China that was said to have the most cultivators.
In comparison, only a small percentage of the population in the US even knew what cultivation was, while it was clear that in Russia, most of the cultivators were under the same rule.
The army dominated everything and had Grandmaster Cultivators and even cultivators that surpassed that cultivation level, just like Nathaniel.
Adam was not planning to start any conflict with such a great power that he knew he had no chance against at that moment, but he needed to find any traces of his aunt.
If she truly had been there and passed through the country, why would she do so and spill the blood of thousands along the way?
Heading towards the rough coordinates that Nathaniel had left in the file where his aunt had supposedly destroyed a facility and killed all those within it, Adam couldn\'t find anything, even with his spiritual sense.
It was almost too clean and there were no traces at all, which was the reason that Adam continued looking and trusted his instincts.
If there truly wasn\'t anything there, then some traces would be found, but the entire desolate area had nothing out of the ordinary.
"It must be here" he mumbled to himself, standing in the centre of the area that had been cleared of any tracks perfectly.
His spiritual sense couldn\'t find anything and there was nothing above that ground so that left only under where he stood.
Slamming his fist into the ground, Adam struck downwards with great force and released a burst of energy as he did so, to destroy all the ground beneath his feet.
The power of his attack left a crater 2 metres deep and at the bottom of it was a surface of some sort of metal material, which was what was responsible for dampening his spiritual sense.
It was too hard for him to break through, which Adam knew, but it didn\'t take him long to find an entrance into the underground facility.
"What is up with cultivators and having underground facilities?" he said to himself as he opened a hatch that he found.
The hatch had been very stiff, and he needed to use his full strength and a few minutes in order to get it open, but when he did, he was instantly assaulted by the thick smell of blood and corpses.
It seemed that the facility had been completely abandoned and they couldn\'t be bothered to clear it up, or so Adam assumed as he jumped down into the underground facility.
Adam was impressed by how large and spacious it was, while he couldn\'t sense that far around him with the dampening effects of the material that the facility was made out of.
His Bloodlust Characteristic began acting up and Adam could feel his desire to kill begin to increase, struggling to control it.
This was the first time in a very long time that he struggled to control his Bloodlust Characteristic and it was due to not only the thick stench of blood and corpses, but also the abundance of evil energy.
It was a form of negative energy that was produced through evil means and was very unrestrainable and dangerous, but also very alluring for those that could wield it.
Walking around the facility, Adam was unfazed by all the corpses and everything he saw.
There were stains of blood and a revolting smell, but most of the flesh of all of those that had been killed had either decayed or been disposed of, as Adam hadn\'t come across any.
All he found were skeletons that were all broken and smashed up as he looked around to find some sort of lab.
