Chapter 242: Fighting Baphomet


    Adam frowned and started releasing steam to his surroundings. Baphomet sent a few ming balls around, and although they burned the steam they went through, it would quickly be filled back.


    Unfortunately, Baphomet''s skin was used to burn damage, and the steam, while hot, wasn''t nearly hot enough to damage him. But it wasn''t Adam''s goal.


    The steam quickly got denser and denser, and it also had the effect of blocking Baphomet''s view. Although theter had a domain, one even stronger than Adam''s, if an area was filled with mist then the view would be blocked. Normally, he would be able to rely on the other senses, especially the sixth one, but Adam''s mist was special.


    While the steam intensified, Adam sent multiple flying shes all around him, as he too did not know where Baphomet was. Out of all his shes, he felt on of them being stopped, thus feeling where Baphomet was.


    He immediately fired a focused spirit beam, which hit the demon. As strong as he was, his spirit was still hit pretty badly, and he was forced to stop for a moment, long enough for Adam to close up on him and sh him with his sword.


    But the moment his sword was about to cleave him in two, Baphomet suddenly awoke from his stupor and blocked the blow with his arm guard, following which he used his ws to sh at Adam.


    Baphomet''s ws easily shed through Adam''s Water Dragon armor, ruining the armor with a single blow, shing open his flesh at the same time.


    He hurriedly retreated, but Baphomet threw several ck fire balls at him, surrounding him. He tried to dodge, but they all exploded before even touching him. As he thought he had dodged the attack, the mes of the explosion joined together to form a big dome around Adam, imprisoning him inside.


    The ck me were so hot that Adam''s whole armor started melting, so Adam hurriedly sent the armor into the Blood Tower. As much as it saddened him, the armor had now be useless to him.


    But he went through so much trouble to get it, he didn''t just want to leave it to melt, even if he couldn''t use it anymore, he could still keep it as a memento.


    Meanwhile, the mes around him began advancing toward him, and the temperature was getting hotter and hotter, his skin was quickly turning red. If not for theyer of Qi covering his body, he would most probably be burnt alive in a matter of seconds.


    For a moment, Adam wished he still had his berserk skill, but unfortunately. For some reason, when he reached 100% understanding for the Concept of Self, the berserk skill, [Totemic Rage], disappeared and became unusable.


    But it was as he took off his armor he felt something he never did before. All his Concepts had already been pushed to the peak, but none had yet condensed into an Essence. Moreover, for most of them, he didn''t have any idea as to how he was going to condense them.


    Unfortunately, he didn''t have the time to ponder on this new discovery. Although condensing an Essence would definitely be a great power up, he knew he had only taken the first step into condensing the Self Sovereign Essence.


    This gave him an idea though. His Sword was by far the closest to condense into an Essence, he had already reached the peak of the Concept for five months now, and he had already reached this level for years back in his life as Old Adam.


    He first used Rising Pir, forming a wall of sword light to cut the fire dome, before Adam had the steam transform into ice. As for the me dome, it rapidly repaired itself, burning through the ice. However, before it could fully close itself, Adam moved through the ice to get out of it.


    It was a new trick Adam had learned that allowed him to move much faster in water, steam or ice. What he did was not transform into ice, water or steam and move inside the element he created, it wouldn''t work with ice.


    Instead, he would fuse with the element he had created, bing part of it, which allowed him to move through it much quicker.


    Something interesting was that the matter he moved the quickest in was ice instead of water or steam. As a solid, logic would say it is much harder to move in ice than in the other two, followed by water, and steam would be the fastest.


    But it was the exact opposite, travel through ice was the fastest, followed by water, and steam was the slowest of the three. Since Adam didn''t know how quick the fire dome would reform, he had chosen the transform his surroundings into ice.


    Once outside, Adam didn''t just stand there, and quickly moved toward Baphomet, who still thought Adam was in the ball of fire. Only when Adam emerged from the ice, his sword already heading for Baphomet, did the demon realize with shock Adam had managed to leave the ball of fire.


    With a quick and decisive strike, Adam managed to make a big cut all over Baphomet''s chest, spraying blood all over. Baphomet looked a little shocked as he said "Are you a disciple of Enya?" As he said that, he punched at Adam.


    While he retreated, Adam was curious as to why Baphomet suddenly talked about Enya? Why would that demon talk about the main goddess of Northmen in the middle of their fight?


    So he asked "What made you say that?" Baphomet frowned and said "That was Enya''s technique, Ice Shift. Only her knows that technique."


    Adam rolled his eyes and said "I don''t have any master, I learned that by myself. You don''t have to worry about the consequences."


    Then, he sent a flurry of flying shes as he turned the ice into water this time, disappearing within. As he did so, he formed a clone to stand in his ce and moved next to Baphomet.


    He had his clone move his arms around as Adam manipted the water he was in, forming spears to attack Baphomet. Baphomet first was wary, and used ck mes to counter them, but quickly the numbers became overwhelming.


    So he changed tactics and used minimal force to deal with them. After a few seconds he said to Adam''s clone "Do you really think you are going to achieve anything with this kind of weak attacks?"


    Adam''s clone smiled and the water that had started umting on Baphomet was turning colder and colder, making him slower and slower. This made the demon frown as he turned a part of his attention toward making his skin hotter.


    The moment he did so, Adam hurled himself toward the demon in the form of a water spear, and like all the other spears, Baphomet stopped him with minimal strength. The moment he did so though, Adam''s two arms manifested from the water, alongside his weapon, and struck mightily at the throat of the demon.
