The Martial Unity

WHOOSH

Rui dashed from one point to another, before pausing and looking at Kane. "How was that?"

"You're messing up the maneuvering part." Kane shook his head. "The misdirection needs to be in precisely the opposite direction you're going, otherwise it won't work."

"Yeah, true." Rui sighed. "I know that in theory, it's not easy to get the hang of it in practice."

"It does take a while to learn." Kane agreed. "You need to burn the technique into your bones with repeated practice. Or at least that's how I did it."

Several months had passed since Rui began his sixth training stage. He had made significant progress with all techniques and was in the final phase of getting rid of all of his flaws and shortcomings. He had reached out to Kane for help with the Shadow Step technique. Although he hadn't mastered that technique, he had mastered the Void Step technique which was the original technique that the Shadow Step technique was an inferior version of.

Kane merely needed a few tries to get the hang of it since he had mastered the Void Step technique. He only needed to understand to what degree it was inferior before he could use it masterfully, making Rui green with envy.

"Man, it's crazy how good you are at this." Rui sighed.

"I mean." He shrugged. "One can say the same thing with you and a number of things. The most recent being the second brain you got."

Rui smiled, he couldn't argue with that.

He hadn't finished mentally embedding his combat thought patterns or the VOID algorithm and the Mind Palace technique into the secondary brain yet. The best part about the Mental Embed technique was the fact that he could use it while training physically as well. In fact, the Mental Embed technique worked most efficiently when the combat information that the user of the technique was actually being used in combat.

The secondary brain learned the information faster when there was actual execution of the movements that were being learned by the secondary brain.

Thus, he could embed the five other techniques he was learning into the secondary brain while he was training them. Thankfully, he wouldn't need to go through another training stage just for that alone, that would have been incredibly wasteful.

Once he wrapped up his Shadow Step training with Kane, he returned back to the Mindmirror training session. He had only very recently gotten accustomed to the feeling of the active secondary brain. It felt like a force with untapped potential. He could constantly feel that he wasn't able to use it to its full potential, which was frustrating.

He continued the Mental Embed training technique process, which was harder and more mentally taxing than he had expected it to be. But in hindsight, he should have expected that would be the case. He was trying to copy and transfer all the data centered around his combat, every speck of it, into the secondary brain.

The size of the data and information that had to be embedded into the secondary brain was gigantic! Although the Mental Embed technique was not weak by any means, it still took an immense amount of time and effort.

The good news was that he was extraordinarily compatible with the technique unlike anything before. It was actually quite surprising initially, but it made sense. His enhanced mind as well as the accumulated concentration that came from days of using the technique straight without any breaks thanks to the mental rejuvenation potions allowed him to use the Mental Embed technique with extraordinary proficiency.

This allowed him to speed up what would otherwise become an ordeal of years into just a few months. Rui was glad he had chosen to master the technique sooner rather than later because mastering it sooner allowed him to automatically transfer future information via the Mental Embed technique into the secondary brain.

This was because of the phenomenon of neuron plasticity. A phenomenon that was responsible for memory and associations. Neuron connections, that corresponded to particular though, that were activated time and time again would grow closer and be bonded stronger. The same thing was happening when the Mental Embed was used to transfer particular information from his brain to the secondary brain, the act formed strong neuron connections between the brain and the secondary brain that allowed the automatic transfer of newer information from his brain to the secondary brain in the future.

By mastering it sooner, he was reducing the amount of information that needed to be manually transferred. After the initial manual transfer, the secondary brain would naturally and automatically learn newer combat information. By executing the initial manual transfer as soon as possible in his life, he was ensuring most of the combat information and thought processes transferred across his life would be learned automatically and not manually.

This was the reason he had chosen to master the Mindmirror Symbiote sooner rather than later. As time passed on, the difficulty of mastering the Mindmirror Symbiote would simply rise continuously, far beyond the already peak grade-ten difficulty.

As painful as it was parting ways with his enhanced growth speed, he ultimately found that the benefits outweighed the losses. He did not want to deal with a technique whose difficulty of mastery was extraordinarily high, at something like grade eleven or grade twelve.

It was especially desirable that he made the transfer of the VOID algorithm as soon as possible before he adapted and expanded it. The VOID algorithm was already a giant system with many sub-systems within it. If he dumped all the information into the Secondary Brain, then any complicated changes made to the VOID algorithm needed to be done only once as the Secondary Brain would follow suit automatically.

Still, the process was extremely tiring and difficult despite his extreme affinity with the techniques involved. This along with the mental invasion of the technique as well as the mental burden that would be incoming once the mental embed was complete made the entire process truly worthy of having its difficulty being graded ten.
