The Martial Unity

BADUMP!

Rui's Martial Heart flared into power.

A tsunami of power erupted from deep within his body.

His cells shook as a maelstrom of power gushed from deep within them to far beyond, spreading across the entire body.

His circulatory system lit up a brilliant bright red from his chest across the entirety of his body, giving him an aura that the ignorant would mistake as godly.

His body brimmed with energy.

His quivered with power.

His eyes flared with a faint glow as he opened them, inspecting his entire body.

"I've finally returned to my peak."

After a month of gradually intensifying rehabilitative training, he gradually coaxed his body to return to its state before the battle with the Gatekeeper.

While the sensation of returning to his peak was pleasing, he was not pleased.

His eyes narrowed as his fists clenched. "Two months…"

He snuffed his Martial Heart, tutting with displeasure.

He didn't like the fact that he had to waste so much time just recovering and rehabilitating from the consequences of using the forbidden metabody technique.

It was a painful reminder of why the technique was forbidden.

If not for the fact that the Gatekeeper had also very willingly used a forbidden technique to win the battle with brute force, he would have never dared to use the technique. Two months was too much of a cost to pay, as far as he was concerned.

Especially when he was pressured by a deadline.

Now, he only had roughly three years and ten months left.
