Chapter 2321: Consequences
What followed next was a thorough dismantling of his opponents one after another. He didn't need to use any of his most powerful techniques in particular, nor did he want to. He simply wanted to test what fighting with the technique was like at its fundamentals. Once he got that down, it was easier to figure out what came next.
He couldn't easily use particularly powerful techniques like Yin-Yang Spear or some of his strongest domain techniques, for they were too draining for him in his current state. However, he found that he didn't need to. He was just too powerful as he was now. In this state, his hypnosis had become so powerful that not even particularly powerful Martial Artists found it easy to handle.
It had always been extremely powerful, for his mind had always been extremely powerful, but even then, the boost to hypnosis provided by the Martial Mind was beyond his expectations, reaching truly extraordinary levels.
"He's strong." Master Sera's smile grew wider. "Stronger than I would have imagined. This new technique is overwhelming and overwhelmingly synergetic with his greatest strengths." Sir Armstrong nodded with a knowing gaze. "No man would experience such an enormous leap in power with that technique as he has. I speak from experience."
"Damn, it's not going to be easy to catch up to him this time." Kane grinned. "That technique looks like a new addition to his Metabody System. About damn time if you ask me."
"An upgrade in processing power of this magnitude..." The Divine Doctor fell into thought. "It does seem remarkably useful."
Matriarch Nephi, on the other hand, simply gazed at his performance from start to finish without uttering so much as a word.
By the time Rui was done, all of the Martial Masters were knocked out or lying on the ground, groaning in pain.
"Thank you for participating in this little sparring match. You have my gratitude," Rui remarked, deactivating the Mind Metabody as he gazed at his hand.
He was quite exhausted already.
It lined up with the suspicion he had that this technique could only last so long. Its sole weakness was its stamina. It was far more energy-intensive than the other Metabody techniques.
"If not for the Sandflower Nectar Potion, it wouldn't even last this long." He winced. "It certainly comes with a drawback that balances out the power it provides."
Thankfully, like the other Metabody techniques, its output could be regulated. He didn't need to use it at a hundred percent each time. He could limit himself to half or even a quarter if he truly wished to conserve his stamina.
It was the ideal solution to an otherwise serious problem.
He couldn't afford to run out of gas in the middle of a battle while surrounded by enemies who would love nothing more than to kill him where he stood.
STEP
He arrived at the spectator stands.
"So, what do you think?" he asked all five of them who watched his battle from start to finish. "You rocked, man. That technique is crazy." Kane flicked him a thumbs up.
"As foreseen, you have an immense compatibility with the technique," the Gatekeeper calmly answered. "You have done well to adapt my technique to your needs and strengths."
Master Sera smiled with an eerie glint in her eyes. "You have amassed an extraordinary amount of power at a young age. I find it a shame that I cannot engage in friendly duels. I would love to fight you. I'm curious which one of us would come out on top."
Rui directed a wary gaze at her.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She was one of the few opponents that he was more reluctant to fight against.
He had absolutely no idea how he was supposed to adaptively evolve against vicious Martial bullying. On top of that, her combat power outside of that was quite impressive, even if unidimensional.
Perhaps one day, when he had shored up his emotional vulnerabilities.
"Do you intend to head to war immediately?"
Rui nodded at his grandmother. "I have gained even more power and have experience and training as a diplomat. I can do much for our predicament if I personally head out for the Kandrian Empire."
He already had a destination in mind that he was willing to head out to immediately.
"What about your sect?" Matriarch Nephi asked.
"The design phase of the training resources that I commissioned has already been completed," Rui replied. "I have also completed the planning phase of the Martial foundation of my sect. The manifold has allowed me to complete a process that would take more than a year in just one month. Unfortunately, there are things that cannot be done inside the manifold. For example, the manufacturing of the resources that I commissioned and the construction of my sect headquarters. There is no point in me waiting around for these mundane processes to finish. I have a trusted and qualified staff working on it."
Once that was done, he intended to officially found the Water Sect right away.
Until then, he would much rather grow involved with matters that were more central to his interests and goals and required his attention. He knew that once the sect officially commenced, it was not going to be a simple and light event. It would ignite a bit of a storm within the Martial Community that he would need to be careful about.
The potency and power of his Martial Art were already well known in the Martial World In addition, the ability to break Martial Artists through was a deeply revolutionary ability that, if disseminated, would shake the Martial World to its very roots.
The world was much larger than just East Panama.
While other Sage-level powerhouses on other sides of the continent did not bother intervening much due to the sheer distance between them, that did not mean that they were unaware of what was happening in East Panama.
News of Rui's ability had undoubtedly reached all echelons of human civilization, and he was sure that he would face the consequences of that at some point.
