Adam could choose how powerful he wanted the clone that he produced with his Unique Clone Skill to be, just like he could do with the Unique Collector Skill.
In essence, the summoning part of the Unique Collector Skill and Unique Clone Skill were the same. The cultivation level of the clone or summon would depend on how much energy Adam used to produce them and how much energy he used each minute to sustain them.
Since all his clone would be doing was studying, Adam made it a rank 1 Novice Cultivator and that only required him to use one IESP to summon it along with 1 IESP each minute.
That wasn't much to Adam and he could train for a few hours without pushing his body too much, then would stop to recover his energy storages, so that his clone wouldn't be retracted.
That allowed him to sustain the clone for very long periods of time and made it so that he would have double the results and could do two things at once.
With his clone studying arrays and learning as much knowledge as it could from his master, while Adam trained in fighting manuals and skills that his master gave him, Adam was rapidly progressing.
At the end of each day, he would retract his clone and all the knowledge and experiences that the clone had would return to Adam.
Such a large amount of knowledge, information and experiences that the clone had over the day would be quite difficult and painful to handle all at once.
The first time, Adam was shocked by his mind suddenly being bombarded with knowledge and information after he retracted his clone, but despite the pain and mental strain, he was able to handle it and after doing so would sleep and rest.
Adam ate large amounts of beast meat and got at least 8 hours of real sleep, which he found really unusual, but relaxing, since his mind and soul would usually always be active in his sleep within the dungeon.
His master noticed that Adam's cultivation wasn't progressing much and Adam revealed to him that he was taking a break from cultivating in his sleep because of the physical strain, which his master agreed with.
Being placed in a dangerous place filled with hundreds of dangerous beasts in one's sleep each night sounded more like a curse than a reward, but the results it helped Adam achieve were great.
After a month passed, Adam finally heard the notification within his mind that he had been waiting for.
{Ding, the system's reset has been completed and the host can now accept all rewards that the host was rewarded previously. Along with that, the host will be notified of all the changes made within the system and has some additional rewards for going through with the change} announced Ava within his mind after the system's program reset.
It made Adam curious about how exactly the system reset and how detailed the system's program was to be able to adapt and grow with him. It also made him wonder more about how the system could give him such great rewards, but he knew that the answers would all come to him eventually.
[I wonder how much my friends have progressed over the past few months. I have a lot of trust in them and believe in their potential, but will they be able to keep up with me] wondered Adam to himself as he thought about how far he had come and everything he had been able to achieve in the matter of a few months.
Cole and Angela had both passed all the trials and taken over their positions as young family heads of their families and gained the support of most of their family elders.
There were always a few elders that didn't submit and were difficult to deal with, but seeing their progress, the support they had and the changes they were implementing within the family, they were unable to voice their opinions.
Cole entered the secret room of the Epstein Family ancestor and he was known for having the most potential out of all of the ancestral cultivators of New York.
However, because of his curious nature and desire to gather knowledge and information, his cultivation level only stayed at the same level as that of the other ancestors and he didn't reach his full potential.
Despite that, what he left behind in that secret room was incredible and most of the previous family heads were unable to access the secret room, which was why their position as the family head was short-lived.
The reason for that was because the secret room had a series of examinations, trials and tests that one must pass to get through and all of them were carried out by different complex arrays.
Cole's potential, willpower and mindset were an embodiment of the Epstein Family Ancestor and may even surpass that of his as he passed all the obstacles stopping him and entered the secret room.
After entering, he didn't leave for a week and didn't drink or eat that entire week, infatuated with all the cultivation methods, skills and techniques he found there along with all the knowledge and information that was stored there.
There was knowledge and information about everything to do with cultivation and went from all the way from alchemy to weapon forging.
It was obviously too much for Cole to lean in a short amount of time and it also wasn't what he needed at that moment of time, as he wanted to increase his power as much as possible, so he was drawn more towards the cultivation methods.
They were all very high-quality cultivation methods, but he found two that stood out, but no matter how hard he tried, he wasn't able to open either of them.
He tried many different ways to open them and even with his full strength he wasn't able to open them, until he tried putting his blood on both of the books and streaming his Internal Energy into them.
