The Martial Unity

Chapter 2383: Met His Match



Master Brigsby would be lying if he said he wasn't extremely agitated by the counter that Rui had come up with to negate his light beams.

His light beams were an extremely powerful and lethal offense that was normally limited to the Sage Realm. He was perhaps the only Master who had harnessed light at all, let alone to such a degree. With that out of the way, he was essentially left toothless due to how much he had invested in these attacks.

They were extraordinarily fast and could not be dodged after they were launched. This principle had allowed him to land his attacks with an unprecedented level of success. On top of that, by continuously refining the intensity of his light attacks, he could turn them into an instant-kill technique that killed any Master any time where they stood.

He also normally distanced himself from his opponents, making it impossible to detect his attacks ahead of time.

Yet, somehow, Rui's senses in his strange state were powerful enough to detect the impending attacks ahead of time, allowing him to evade them before they were fired.

However, despite the fact that he could evade them, what was actually even more shocking was that he could somehow manipulate heaven and earth to redirect the trajectories of the light beams away from him.

He did it through means that Master Brigsby didn't even understand. Somehow, none of them could even come close to hitting him.

Rui had somehow negated a technique and a paradigm of Master Brigsby's offense that had served him well for almost a century.

He tried adjusting angles, intensity, frequency, areaa but unfortunately, none of it yielded any valuable insights. Somehow, his greater weapon has been cleanly negated.

This same extremely lethal and effective means of combat had been what earned Master Brigsby his high grade and was what had allowed him to kill the fourth peak Master who had belonged to the Republic of Gorteau.

He specialized in hunting monsters. Martial monsters.

Unfortunately for him, he had met his match for the first time.

VMMM!!! VMMM!!! VMMM!!!

He launched his blazingly fast beams one after another with gritted teeth and bloodshot eyes, desperately trying to see if he could land a powerful hit on Rui. Yet, he not only didn't

succeed, he also had no choice but to watch Rui run around taking down enemy Martial Masters one after another.

FSSS...n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The enormous tsunami that the enemy had thrown towards Rui had been frozen stiff into an enormous iceberg.

Rui stared at the aquatic Master with an intrigued expression. "I see, so that's how the technique works. You use the principles of physical chemistry."

His keen senses had finally been able to discern from where exactly she was summoning such massive amounts of water. What she was doing was condensing massive amounts of moisture in the atmosphere by manipulating heaven. She would recharge the atmosphere by transferring the dry air to distant water bodies from where it could extract even more water. She essentially set up a powerful and swift circulating air current that extracted and delivered massive amounts of water that she could then use how she wanted.

"Fascinating technique, but unfortunately..." A smile appeared on his face. "All but too easy to adaptively evolve to."

She leaped away with a grave expression, hoping that Rui's physical impediments would allow her to get away from him. Unfortunately, Rui had no intention of letting any of them escape.

"I don't need this as much anymore." He reduced Megamind to a third of its full power while simultaneously activating Hypertrophic Surge and Neo Godspeed at fifty percent.

In an instant, his body mass reduced while his muscle mass increased, raising his strength and speed significantly. With the quasi-domain erected around him to redirect light, he didn't need the senses of the Megamind technique to locate the inception of the light beams.

He didn't need to adaptively evolve to the group of Masters, because their threat had been crippled after he had formed predictive and SOUL models. All he needed to do was ensure that he defeated them.

BOOOM BOOOM BOOOM!

He evaded an onslaught of wind attacks that had suddenly been thrown at him by an enemy Master.

"...That domain is the reason that Master Brigsby's light beams are missing," one Master finally realized. "If we tear it apart, we might still be able to win. We have greater stamina than him collectively!"

Instantly, hope lit up in the eyes of the enemy Masters as they activated breathing techniques and launched sound and wind attacks in hopes of dispelling his domain.

"It's too late."

WHOOSH!

Rui appeared before them at incredibly high speeds.

BOOOM BOOOM BOOOM!

One defensive Master grimaced with pain as Rui blasted him with Yin-Yang Spears, one after another. It was actually impressive that he was able to withstand Yin-Yang Spears enhanced by Hypertrophic Surge to this degree, but grade-twenty-nine Masters were cut from a different cloth.

Unfortunately, the cloth was not special enough.

BOOOOOM!

A thundering roundhouse kick slipped past his active defense, crashing into his jaw.

CRACK!

The sheer impact broke the lower half of his face.

With the two models aiding Rui's timing, he just needed to find the right moment and placement to achieve a result that he would not have been able to otherwise.

BOOOM BOOOM BOOOM!!

The other Masters never relented on air-based attacks, hoping to take him down after they restored Master Brigsby's effectiveness.

Unfortunately for them, they simply weren't fast or strong enough.

"Breathing Crucifix."

Suddenly, they felt as though someone was choking them where they stood, instantly halting

their attacks.

BAM BAM!!!

In a single smooth motion, Rui's foot blasted two Masters where they stood while they were choking under the effects of the hypnosis.

"DIE!" An aggressive Master appeared behind him with a powerful dropkick, threatening to

split his head open.

WHOOSH!

The attack crashed into an empty image, much to his surprise.

BOOOM BOOOM BOOOM!

Rui peppered him with blow after blow that ravaged his body. Even defensive Masters found

it impossible to resist Rui for long after he adaptively evolved to them. An offensive Master

had no hope of defending himself.

THUD

His unconscious body fell as Rui directed his gaze to the remaining Masters who had already begun retreating from the battlefield.
