The Martial Unity

Chapter 1932 Higher Aspirations

Because the difficulty of surviving, sustaining, and progressing in the Beast Domain only grew higher the deeper they went, their journey stalled significantly. Of course, while it got harder, it naturally made them stronger.

Rui forgot what protection felt like during this time.

He forgot what safety felt like during this perilous voyage through the Beast Domain.

The fourteen months he had spent under constant protection from Martial Masters might as well as have happened ages ago. While he previously felt like he was stalling and growing rusty due to the lack of danger that served as a crucible to forge Martial Artists, now, he felt like he was perhaps in too much danger.

It shook any rust he thought he had accumulated off him.

Now, he had very naturally learned to grow an eye at the back of his head. A state of subconscious alertness in every inch of his environment was absolutely necessary and naturally came.

That was how omnipresent the perils of the Beast Domain were.

In the Human Domain, Rui had a lot of confidence in his sensory prowess. If his senses didn't detect any threats, then he could have a high certainty that there weren't any threats. While Martial Artists of higher Realms with decent stealth could still hide from him, such a circumstance was extremely unlikely.

The Beast Domain was different.

Camouflage, stealth, deception... these had all been dialed to eleven in the Beast Domain. Rui had lost count of the number of times that his senses failed to detect threats until the very last moment, almost getting him and Kane killed.

It forged him to be a stronger Martial Artist in more than one way.
