The Martial Unity

Chapter 2120 Final Phase

Chapter 2120  Final Phase

Rui sat cross-legged deep within his training chamber.

The past two years had gone purely into training. He had spent the past year mastering combining his Yin and Yang vibrations in constructive and destructive resonance. It had taken him far longer than he had hoped. That was the reason that he had to readjust his expectations for how long this particular training phase would take. Perhaps this would be the case for all serious training phases involving the development of new techniques.

After all, one of the reasons that this training phase took as long as it did was that he needed to ensure that the technique was hyper-synergetic with his Martial Mind, in addition to being innately powerful.

This was probably going to be true for most techniques from that point on in his journey in the Master Realm. Thus, it was probably for the best that he got used to greater periods of time going into training.

Things had changed quite a bit since his Apprentice days.

There had been a time when he could master a technique in just three or four months. Or, at most, half a year. In the Squire and Senior Realm, each technique had required a year of time on average.

Things were only bound to get harder from here on out.

Fortunately, he was in his prime. He was not going to stall like other Martial Masters.

VMMMmmmMMMmmmMMM

He began rapidly alternating between constructive and destructive resonance, building the transitions into his muscle memory. He needed to be able to execute them as smoothly as possible in battle with as little lag as possible. The greater the lag, the likelier his opponents would be able to read his intent based on its timing. The goal of Project Heavy Hitter was to develop a reliable offensive technique that could be of use without being a liability that was difficult to actually land on his opponents. It didn't matter how long it took, but he would not stop training until he gained maximal mastery of the transition.

Unfortunately, that wasn't even the last step. He also needed to master applying it to his offensive maneuvers. All this time he was merely dealing with the principles of his technique, rather than the application of his technique to combat.

He closed his eyes, his eyebrows furrowing with strain as he began speeding up the frequency of the transitions, trying to accomplish them quicker.

VMmMmMmM….

With each moment, it got faster and faster, turning into a monotonic hum. Unfortunately, it was much easier to maintain such swift transitions in training, not so much in practical combat.

STEP

He got up, preparing an ordinary punch to be used with Yin-Yang constructive resonance. He commenced the Yin and Yang vibrations, focusing their direction toward the end of his fist, yet he kept it in a state of destructive resonance.

His eyes sharpened as he surged forward with great power.

BOOOM!!!

A thundering shockwave emerged as the Yin and Yang vibrations converged at the end of his fist in immense constructive resonance, yielding an impact of unparalleled power. RUMBLE…

The chamber strained, tremoring as the sheer amount of power that Rui outputted was able to overwhelm even the isolation measures of the Master level chamber that he was training in.

"This…" Rui's eyes widened with shock. This was beyond his expectations.

He didn't expect that he would be able to produce such power on his first try!

"If I can just master the timing and refine my transitions…" he murmured. "Then this could be a completely different gamechanger!"

He couldn't even imagine how strong he would be with such immense destructive power at his disposal. Furthermore, he hadn't even tried combining it with any of his other techniques, thus this was far from his limit. With this, his offense would almost certainly jump from being considered the worst part of his Martial Art to being the most powerful part of his Art while simultaneously ensuring that he now had ways to take his opponent down without having to bank on stamina or any other option. His entire approach to combat could improve.

He had sensed the possibility of this such that he would never find himself fighting peers that he would be unable to take down.

He grew excited at the thought of the upgrade to his grade. He was relatively certain he would no longer be grade twenty-five if he successfully completed this technique. Perhaps he would be more than just a grade in the most optimistic circumstances.

He immediately jumped back into training, growing more determined to see the technique to the end. While he certainly missed the ease of training multiple lower grade techniques at once, training one extremely difficult technique to produce an incredible attack was proving to be a lot more satisfying than he had expected.

In the past, the reason that he often undertook the training of multiple techniques at once was because he often lacked a foundation in them. This had been the case when he first created the Hypnomatrix as well as when he created the Yggdrasil System. Now, however, he was refining something that he already had a great foundation in.

That was why it was worth it to focus on quality instead of quantity. At the same time, he knew that the cognitive limit for techniques was now a lot higher than when he was a Martial Senior, allowing him to use many techniques simultaneously in the past. However, as far as offense went, the Yin-Yang Resonance was something that took a lot of cognitive load to function. Of course, this technique also produced more offensive power than a lot of powerful offensive techniques put together.

"Quality is what I need at this point in time."

He resolved to focus on one technique at a time from that point on, having been pleased with the results of dedicating all his efforts in a single direction; a technique of unprecedented offensive power and lethality.

Rui grew more absorbed into his training as he entered the final stage of his technique.
