Try using a paint stripping heat gun and a steel sidewalk ice scraper
(sharpened)....did that for my Mother's basement years ago and the heat made
a big difference. Hope that was of some help ..................

What is the best way to remove some very old tile from a concrete floor?
Where tile had been wet or had something sitting on it, some tiles are
already loose and pop up. But on most of the floor tile is still firmly
attached with what appears to be a black adhesive. The hammer and chisel
routine just brings up 1 to 3 inch square chunks. Tile is the plyable
stuff
..not ceramic. Also 12x12, not the 9x9 asbestos.
Any ideas for something faster?
