The Martial Unity

Having fully enamored them with the power and the potency of the Hellbringer model, it was time to fully correct their mindsets.

“This is an extremely data-intensive system of thought,” Rui pointed out. “It will take at least a year for Martial Artists of the Lower Realms to fully master it through the shortcuts and solutions that I have specifically prepared for them. It will take less time for Martial Masters to master it, thankfully, as Masters are already accustomed to systems of thought. However, they will still require the many clever shortcuts and solutions that I have prepared. Which leads me to the next part of my presentation…”

The slide on the screen shifted.

“First, the Hell Palace technique,” Rui calmly continued. “This thought technique is a derivative and customization of the universally available Mind Palace technique. However, I have personalized the technique to make it specifically suited for the Hellbringer model. I predict it will lower the difficulty of mastering the technique by at least fifty percent. It allows for a systematic memory of the vast amounts of data and it should make the Hellbringer extremely viable for mass mastery.”

The slide changed as it shifted to the next training solution that Rui had prepared.

“Hypnotic embedding is a highly difficult but also highly effective form of training that can accelerate the ingestion of the system of thought into the mind. It can drastically reduce the time needed to memorize the system of thought,” Rui explained. “The reason that this is usually not deployed is because creating hypnotic embedding training techniques is extremely difficult. Each of them is highly specific and usually requires a Master with the extreme mastery of hypnosis to create one. Thankfully…”

He smiled. “You have me. I have created a hypnotic embedding technique to accelerate the memorization of the Hellbringer model.”

A wave of jubilations swept through all the leaders of human civilization. It was extremely good news that not only did the Dawnbringer have such a powerful solution to the Beast Incursion but also came equipped with solutions to the shortcomings of his solutions.

“On top of that, I have also created other training resources for not just the Hellbringer model, but also adaptive evolution domains,” Rui said. “It’s not enough that one just memorizes this system of thought, no. One also needs some mastery of domains in order to be able to recreate the antithetical environments of the beasts and monsters.”

They frowned at those words.

This represented an additional barrier of entry to mastering this solution that the Dawnbringer had prepared for all of them. Thankfully, he was shrewd enough to prepare a solution for this as well.

It was rather impressive how much the Dawnbringer had to show for considering that merely a month had passed since the inception of the Beast Incursion. The fact that he had so much to offer increased the hopes of all the leaders of human civilization. It genuinely felt like human civilization had a solid chance of fending off Sage-level beasts with just this alone. This combined with whatever the Esoterist was sure to provide, and many leaders and Martial Artists in the Human Summit felt that the plan espoused by the Emperor of Harmony was genuinely viable.

They imagined a future where each Martial Artist was capable of replicating a solid proportion of the power that allowed the Dawnbringer to make immense impacts on the battlefield. On top of that, with so many people entering an entirely new field, there would be significant progress down the improvement and mastery of the Hellbringer Model.

This would allow humanity to adaptively evolve to the beast tide to a much greater degree than before. In addition, many leaders had also conceived of many non-Martial and potentially esoteric technological applications of the Tree of Life. This could allow humanity to push back even harder!

Even the Ecologer who silently listened to his solution was extremely impressed by what he was offering to human civilization. It far exceeded the power and potency that she had expected. It was more like a revolutionary boon rather than a merely helpful solution.

Specifically, she was deeply impressed that he had, from the way he spoke of it, clearly obtained the enlightenment of the Tree of Life. As far as she was aware there were only two people who had gained the enlightenment of the Tree of Life.

One was herself, as the sage of ecology and life. It was directly relevant to her field of expertise and what ultimately made her the human sage of this field.

The other was the Divine Doctor himself who achieved it as a result of his sheer intellect, knowledge, and experience with biology.

And now, a third member had joined the list.

However, from what she could tell from the brief hypnosis he had cast on the entirety of the summit, his enlightenment was different from theirs.

It was Martial in nature.

And it served his Martial Path.

She instantly understood why the Divine Doctor remained in the Kandrian Empire, being fully aware of his extraordinary ambition.

It was no wonder.

It was no wonder that he chose to remain there when he found the greatest hope to fulfilling his grand objective.

She came to regard the Dawnbringer with even greater respect. His knowledge was clearly on par with that of a human sage even though he was clearly also an extraordinary Martial Artist.

This was truly an incredible feat thought to be impossible.

This was the kind of Martial Artist it took to save human civilization from the destruction from the Beast Tide.

“Ah.” Rui’s voice drew her attention. “I forgot to mention something to all of you.”

His smile grew perfunctory with a hint of mischief.

“If you want these training and mastery resources, you must commit to accepting, developing, and promoting the Water Sect in all of your nations. Otherwise, you can enjoy taking years to enjoy the benefits of the Hellbringer Model.”

The leaders of human civilization gritted their teeth as they clenched their fists.

This was a blatant blackmail for personal gain!
