Just putting this out there, but I did watch that part frame by frame and it does appear that Adam absorbed the blast. He pulled out his sword, the energy blast hit it, then it seems to collect at that point, then when the energy vanishes, Adam's sword flashes white and continues to until he returns to sword to his shieth. After that several points on Adam's body light up, similar to Cinder's dress, and he performs that slashing move. If I had to guess, he absorbed the energy and added to what he was already collecting, which was why he asked Blake to by him time.
