While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

"Also the power and aura that your aunt's body displayed aren't get own and belongs to that Evil Soul. The Evil Soul's power and knowledge is very great, making it so that your aunt will purges at a rapid and frightening peace and the Evil Soul will eventually take over her body" added Ava. 

"How long do we have?" asked Adam worriedly.

"In roughly 3 years, your aunt's soul will be consumed by the Evil Soul and then there will be no chance of saving her" answered Ava.

Hearing her answer, Adam let out a sigh of relief, but his expression became tense after hearing what Ava said next.

"However in a year and a half from now, your aunt's original soul will be lost and would have fused with that of the Evil Soul. There will be a year of harmony and weakening, then a year of fusing, then a year of consuming, so if you want to save her, you need to do so before 1 and a half years pass" stated Ava.

Clenching his fist, Adam wanted to begin training straight away and wanted to make sure that he was at least an Advanced Cultivator after the year passed and needed to be strong enough to face his aunt.

Her aura alone was strong enough to crush him, but Adam knew that it was impossible for his aunt's power to become so high in a single day, which meant that it was merely the Evil Soul's aura leaking through his aunt's negative emotions.

Adam was relieved that what his aunt had said wasn't truly what she felt and it was the Evil Soul that was manipulating her, but there was truth behind everything she said and Adam understood where she was coming from.

However, despite all of that, he couldn't help but wonder who the Evil Soul was, how it got into his aunt's body and why it was targeting his aunt.

The only people that Adam could think of that might want to take him down were the Evil Organisation and the Lin Family as he had gotten in both of their ways indirectly and had ruined both of their plans.

Jaspal's actions were a clear indication that the Evil Organisation had their eyes on Adam and knew a lot about him, while the government was the same, but didn't seem to be looking for enemies.

In the state that Adam was in, he had no chance against any of them and although wanted to form useful connections, wanted to rely on his own power and was planning to take a year for himself to spend completely on training.

His apartment was destroyed, his aunt gone and Adam didn't have much else to worry about, so was planning to spend a day to sort out everything he needed before leaving to his master's dojo and staying there for an entire year.

The only times that Adam was planning to leave the dojo was to stock up on food and buy anything that he needed, but outside that, he would either be in the dungeon or training with his master.

"I am not sure how I will take that Evil Soul out of my aunt's body, but I will subdue her first then deal with that. For the next year, I will train so hard and become so powerful that even a single summon from my Collector Skill is enough to take down an army" declared Adam.

It was the last straw for Adam and he had enough of always needing to fight hard and barely win battles by using his trump cards. He wanted to not only be skilled, but also reach a high cultivation level that would allow him to unleash true power.

"And I will be here to support you and help you overcome any hurdle that comes your way" stated Ava.

Adam smiled and realised that although his aunt had left and was being taken over by an Evil Soul, his feelings of loneliness were false.

He still had friends around him and people that were looking out for him and most of all, the woman of his dreams within his mind, assisting him and waiting for him to help her come to life.

"Ava, that reminds me. Does that mean that you are a soul that is inside my body, just like the Evil Soul?" asked Adam.

Ava shook her head and answered, "After gaining sentience, I do have a soul, but I am bound to the system, which is bound to you. I am not in your body and you can think of it as though my soul is within your mind. That isn't how it actually is, but that is all I can say at the current moment".

Adam thanked Ava and apologised for what had happened before leaving her in the mindscape and returning to reality.

Without Ava, Adam was unsure if he would have been able to return to his senses and recover from the shock of what had happened with his aunt, but after what had happened between them, their connection grew even stronger.

"There is no need to thank me, I am here for you," said Ava after Adam left as she felt warmth in her heart.

Adam returning to reality was unsure what to expect as he had been more focused on speaking to Ava, but when he opened his eyes, he felt that he was in a familiar bed, but it wasn't his own.

Opening his eyes, he saw Angela Maxwell leaning over him with a worried expression with her face very close to his.

"Good morning," said Adam as Angela quickly jumped away from him and blushed.

Although Adam was in no mood to joke and was eager to get back to his training, Angela had done nothing but try to help him and it wasn't fair on him to hurt others just because he had been hurt.

Adam was planning to act the same and not tell anyone apart from his master the truth about what happened, which he knew would place the entire burden on himself, but it was exactly how he wanted it to be.

[I will deal with everything myself and become so strong that I never have to worry about anything like this happening again] vowed Adam as he got up from the bed and put a fake smile on his face.
