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

Upon opening his eyes Cole couldn't help but cry and asked for his father to leave him for a while until he was ready to continue their talk.

"Son take your time to digest everything that has been revealed to you and I know there is a lot of pressure on you, but you are strong and will be able to overcome everything and fulfil your destiny," said his father before walking away and leaving his son alone sat in the middle of the warehouse.

Cole was finally beginning to be happy again with Emma who was standing by him, but it seemed as though everything that he wanted and was satisfied with was worthless. From everything that his father told him and showed him, along with his mother's message, he had no choice but to be strong and determined.

The kind of pressure that his parents had put on him was an unhealthy amount and could mentally and physically crush him, but they were hoping that after experiencing life as an ordinary person, he would be ready to begin his journey.

He knew that they didn't want to put any pressure on him until he was 18 and since he had come of age, he was finally ready.

"I didn't have a purpose before this, and this is the perfect chance for me to please my parents and do something good with my life" bellowed Cole.

He was overwhelmed with different emotions all at once, but he wanted to overcome all of them with raw willpower and after the emotional pain that he had experienced, he just wanted the pain to stop.

Weirdly at a time like that, Adam's face appeared within his mind and Adam had a smile on his face and was cheering him up like he usually would, then the faces of Emma, his mother and his father also appeared within his mind.

As long as they were all safe, happy and pleased with him, he was happy and although he felt abandoned by them, if he was powerful and capable, they might come back to him, or so he hoped.

William gave his son a few minutes then returned to see him. Cole seeing his father returned wiped his tears, clenched his fists and was prepared to get revenge for his mother and father, while also making sure that those around him lived a good life.

Cole felt numb to mental pain and couldn't care less about physical pain, and with so many people relying on him, Cole had to endure silently and make sure to overcome everything.

William removed the rune that was restricting him from being able to cultivate and from that moment onwards, he would diligently cultivate all day and night using the method that his father gave him. Cole's talent and perceptivity in cultivation were surprisingly high.

The great elder may have been able to eliminate all the threats to the position of family head, but what he didn't expect was for his sister and his father to pass on the original cultivation method that their ancestor cultivated to Cole.

He wanted to pass it on to one of his children who he was planning to raise as the family head, but without it, he would be massively advantaged when compared to the other large cultivation families.

The large cultivation families would always pass on the original cultivation method to at least one person every generation, and with that, the power of the large cultivation families was not declining as much.

However after his sister and father died, he stepped in as the substitute family head, which the rest of the family agreed with, until somebody from the younger generation was ready to inherit the position, which the great elder was hoping to be one of his children.

After he began cultivating, Cole would see Emma less and less and every time that he saw her he would be full of smiles and jokes, but after all the mental and physical agony that he experienced while cultivating, it was all fake.

Then suddenly Adam appeared in his life after disappearing for 2 and a half years and although he was furious about Adam abandoning him, after hearing what he was experiencing, he forgave him and was happy that Adam was back in his life.

However, both of them had suspicions about each other as they could both sense that there was something that had completely changed in each other, but one thing they both knew was that they were brothers and it would be very hard for their bond to be broken.

Cole's talent grade and elemental affinity were exactly the same as the Epstein Family Ancestor's one. With his E:1 graded wind elemental affinity and talent grade, along with the cultivation method, his ambition and drive, he was rapidly progressing.

The great elder's son who was also 18 was on the verge of breaking through to become an Advanced Cultivator both externally and internally, which was expected of the descendants of any of the large cultivation family heads, while Cole had only recently begun cultivating.

In terms of talent and heritage, Cole was destined to become the Epstein family head, but he knew it wouldn't be that easy and his sudden appearance after 13 years would be hard for the Epstein Family to believe.

He needed to prove himself and show his worth to the Epstein Family, all while accomplishing everything that his parents had burdened him with and that was the main thing that he was focused on.

Cole spent a couple of days with Adam and would be there whenever he called, but other than that, he was too consumed by his need to please everybody, so spent all of his time on cultivating.

At the present moment, Cole and his father were on Staten Island and it was the time of year where the next family head would be chosen, so they had to reveal themselves then or they would never have the chance to regain their former glory.
