However, that did not mean that there were no issues with the technique. It was not perfect. Rui was already using the Hungry Pain technique on a permanently regular basis. After all, he had used the Hungry Pain technique to obtain a stronger Martial body that was grade two right off the bat.
Because he was measured to have extremely high stamina before he became a Martial Squire, his evolution process evolved his other physical parameters to a greater degree than at the cost of stamina.
Because he had chosen an all-rounder Martial body that was perfectly equally balanced between all parameters, the evolution process to reach that balance needed to evolve his stamina less than his other parameters because his stamina was already high, and disproportionately higher than the rest of his body. Thus by evolving his stamina, he could achieve the perfectly balanced Martial body that he had at the moment.
If not for Hungry Pain, he would actually be weak in stamina, so that meant that if he wanted to use Hungry Pain for something aside from stamina, it would cause his stamina to plummet.
Thus every time he wanted to accelerate his healing, he was greatly hampering his stamina.
That was something that he needed to keep in mind. He wouldn't be able to last too long if he healed too much since his normal stamina simply was not up to par whatsoever without the Hungry Pain technique.
He immediately headed to the breathing technique section of the Floating Sect's Martial library as he began searching for what he wanted.
It was at times like these were he could truly appreciate the Martial Union for its scrupulous order and organization
The Floating Sect's sections were more chaotic. Sections covered random and arbitrary fields, or multiple fields rounded into each other.
Yet, in this case, it wasn't too hard to find the breathing technique section.
It was one of the largest section techniques of the entire library.
That was what surprised him, although breathing techniques were extremely important and foundational. It was only one specific field as opposed to broader fields that were based on the fundamental aspects of combat like offense and defense.
In fact, another field that was nearly as large was the section containing sound techniques. That was strange too, but then Rui recalled that Senior Xanarn was a sound-oriented Martial Artist.
('One of the Martial Seniors must be a breathing-oriented Martial Artist,')
That would explain why there were so many breathing-oriented Martial Art techniques compared to Martial Art techniques of other fields.
Regardless, he wasn't complaining. More options meant that there was a higher likelihood that he would be able to find what he was looking for.
Even if he needed to go through every single, he was more than willing to do so.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm One good thing about the Floating Sect was that it allowed him to go through all of the techniques free of cost. That was quite the incentive for Martial Artists to remain on the island and train.
After all, training chambers were all well and good. But it was Martial Art techniques that really made them stay. After all these techniques served to help guardians grow stronger in the Floating precisely for times like these.
Rui immediately began searching thoroughly going through multiple techniques.
Many of them were supplementary in nature, after all, breathing techniques were quite conducive to supplementing life.
It didn't take too long to realize that he was not going to find a single solution that was going to be able to fulfill what he wanted. The very concept of what he was looking for was unknown to the existing paradigms.
That was why Rui was starting to suspect that he wasn't going to be able to find what he was looking for in one wrapped-up gift.
However, there were still ways he could naturally meet expectations. He knew what he was looking for. He wanted a powerful breathing technique that was powerful enough to inhale great a amount of oxygen.
There were several techniques that came close to finding ways for Rui to achieve this, and he had a particular interest in them.
[Whirlpool Breathing]
A breathing technique that focuses on increasing the flexibility of the diaphragm, allowing it to expand even further than it could normally do so. This resulted in deeper breaths that allowed for an even greater amount of oxygen to enter the blood.
[Elephant Breathing]
This breathing technique strengthened the diaphragm's natural strength and evolved the skeletal muscular system that way.
('Why not both?')
Rui realized that because the two of them worked by principles that did not intervene or overlap with each other, it would not be problematic for him to master both of them. As for whether that would be enough for him to inhale enough air to be able to get the energy and nutrients of Hungry Pain from the cells and into the bloodstream remained to be seen.
Unfortunately, it was not possible for him to know the end result before he actually mastered those techniques.
Still, he was definitely on the right path.
Even if these two weren't enough, he simply needed to master enough breathing and supplementary techniques that would allow him to inhale enough quantity of air very rapidly.
He immediately got to work as he procured copies of the two techniques from the library counter.
He immediately went through both of them one by one, examining the training methodologies and the necessary equipment to master the two techniques. One good thing about the Floating Sect was that the chamber contained all of the necessary training resources. He simply needed to return back to his chamber and he could immediately begin training.
('Hopefully, I'll get to test this technique in the war once I'm done with it,')
He was confident that he would get plenty of opportunity to test the limits of his new technique in the war against the Kaddar Region, it was not going away any time soon.
