The Martial Unity

Chapter 2096  Fleshed Framework

Synergy with Martial Mind meant something very specific in the context of Ruiʼs Martial Mind.

It meant a technique that grew more powerful the more foreknowledge of its execution that the user had. It could also mean a technique that was extremely powerful innately but required some amount of foreknowledge of execution.

Phantom Step was nothing too special by itself, but it had an extremely high affinity with the VOID algorithm and the SOUL System, allowing it to function as a powerful grade-ten technique when he used it with his Martial Mind..

Flux Earther fell into a similar category, although it was an inherently stronger technique.

For Project Heavy Hitter, Rui knew that it would most certainly be far more synergetic simply based on how the Yin-Yang Shield technique worked. Master Vertol needed to keep the technique active because otherwise, he would not be able to use it to defend in time against attacks.

This was because the technique had a timeframe of activation that was not quick enough for rapid activation on and off.

Rui knew that his technique would most likely inherit the same shortcoming.

This was where his Martial Mind came in. Because of the deep insight into the future that his Martial Mind gave him, he could adaptively evolve his timing to ensure the technique activated on time.

”Thus, Project Heavy Hitter fulfills both conditions that I have set for it.”

It was not only very powerful innately but worked far better with his Martial Mind than his defense or maneuvering did.

Having confirmed that the project met the standards that he had set for it, he could now begin fleshing out the theoretical framework of the functioning of the technique. While he had decided to rely on the underlying principles of the Yin-Yang Shield technique, those were merely underlying. They did not create a technique by themselves and he still needed to flesh out exactly how the technique would function.

”In some sense, this project will bear some resemblance to Reverberating Lance.”

After all, both techniques would inflict damage via vibrations, it was just that this technique would be exponentially more powerful and would also rely on his Martial Mind.

”It also is a far superior version of Outer Convergence.”

While the latter gathered power across all muscle groups in the Body, the former would be doing that but with each cell.

”The technique would commence when I begin the internal yin vibrations and external yang vibrations,” Rui closed his eyes as he began visualizing the technique. ”Iʼll need to balance the frequency and phase of the two sources of vibrations to ensure that theyʼre in destructive resonance until the moment of impact.”

If they didnʼt negate each other in destructive interference until the last moment, then his body would be vibrating with far too much energy, making motion much too impeded. He assumed this was part of the reason that the Gen Temple had introduced the concept of destructive interference in the first place.

Perfect destructive superposition would silence all the vibrations until the very moment they were needed by having two sets of vibrations cancel each other out.

This exact same principle was used in some aircrafts in cutting-edge vibration systems. By relying on acoustic and magnetics, the immense turbulence that these vehicles experience was negated entirely.

The vibrations werenʼt needed until the attack actually landed on his opponent. Thus, he needed to keep them in a state of destructive resonance before shifting to constructive resonance at the moment of attack so that both vibrations were combined into a single super vibration that would inflict a tremendous impact on his opponent.

This was the broad function of the technique that he had in mind. It bore a lot of resemblance to the Yin-Yang Shield, but there were many major differences.

”This technique will need to involve directing vibrations in a particular direction, namely; that target of my attack.”

Unlike the Yin-Yang Shield technique, this technique inherently required direction. He wanted the sum weight of both the Yin-Yang vibrations to flow into the body of his opponent in one go.

Thus, he would also need to master not only the generation of Yin vibrations but also their direction.

He was not making it easy on himself.

Mastering the underlying principles of the technique was hard enough, but complicating them with an additional variable was something that only increased the probability of his failure.

Yet, if he succeeded…

”The results will be on another level.”

The power of the technique would most likely outstrip even the Muspelheim and Niflheim domains or at least match them. The difference was that all that power was dispersed over a large amount of area, while the technique of his current project could be focusing it into a single attack at a single point.

It was more than capable of fixing any offensive shortcomings.

That was the reason that he was intent on going all out with the project.

If successful, it could make his offense the strongest field in one go.

”Now, time to flesh out the training regime for this project.”

This was the hardest part of this project.

It was coming with some form of training that could allow him to master the technique.

Thankfully, he had some ideas.

”I can use domains to train my yin vibrations.”

He had already discovered that domains were highly effective training tools that could be used to train things that would otherwise require some highly advanced training resources from the Martial Union.

”Sonic Singularity and Deathʼs Sympathy are good ways of training my offense.”

These two techniques were powerful sound-based techniques that could help him master his generation and manipulation of yin vibrations.

They would serve as good resistance training.

He could begin slowly by using Sonic Singularity at one-percent power and subjecting himself to it. Then he could work on negating the vibrations of the domain with that of his yin vibrations.

This way he would be able to refine it step by step.
