Chapter 1460 Efficiency and Potential
Rui immediately got to work with the three Hypnomatrix projects. He excitedly accessed all the stored data in the Mind Palace.
This was the first Martial Embodiment that he had seen since becoming a Martial Senior. And the enhanced senses of the Senior Realm allowed him to understand the illusion better, even if it was inside his mind.
It affected all of his senses. He could see, hear, feel, smell, and even taste the Martial Embodiment. Furthermore, it extended to his sensory techniques as well.
Seismic Mapping detected an Earthquake of Richter ten magnitude.
Tempestuous Feel detected a hurricane that swallowed a small country.
Primordial Instinct had rung alarm bells through a megaphone in his mind, constantly screaming at him about the danger.
Much to his surprise, not even Riemannian Echo was immune to such an effect, a passive illusion so powerful that it could affect an indirect sense of space was quite impressive.
He quickly built up the image of the Martial Embodiment as he began refining the image that he had built in his mind. He could already tell that it would do well to replace the image of Master Uma that he had developed. It was just that much more eye-drawing, and thus easier to use to misdirect.
Just based on the weight that he had experienced from the two Martial Masters left him in awe. The output that Martial Masters was so high that they dwarfed even the sheer destructive power of Martial Seniors, who in turn had the power to alter terrain to a small extent, and even sink small isles.
He had gained more clues into the nature of the Master Realm in his conversations with Master Reina and Master Zeamer. They did not possess an additional source of physical power like the Martial Heart, so one would not expect the output of the Master Realm to exceed the Senior Realm.
And yet, it did. Not by a small margin either. It was something that Rui hadn't entirely understood until his conversation with Master Zeamer.
'Far greater output than Martial Seniors, yet no environmental damage under normal circumstances due to sheer control over their power.' Rui narrowed his eyes. 'Furthermore, the Master Realm is the evolved version of the Apprentice Realm in principle.'
Everything clicked.
'I see, it's control and efficiency.' Rui realized. 'The reason that Martial Apprentices are extremely superhuman despite physiologically being human, they maximize the potential of normal physical human power.'
The human body generated hundreds of joules of energy at its highest output. Mechanically, this was enough to shatter rocks, on paper at least. Yet due to mechanical and thermodynamic inefficiency, as well as structural deficiencies, humans were unable to shatter rocks. Only one percent of the total power generated by the human body actually made it to the target of their strikes.
Martial Apprentices gained superhuman control over their bodies with the extra cognition from the untapped potential in the brain, allowing them to not only be more efficient with their movements but also develop much greater muscle memory than before. Furthermore, conditioning training which could only produce humble results in normal humans, produced incredible results in Martial Apprentices due to a much superior neuro-endocrinological response to conditioning from the superhuman brain.
In short, it allowed Martial Apprentices to squeeze every ounce of potential generated by the human body on a regular basis, and use it for, and only for, power, ensuring nothing went to waste.
'And Martial Masters must be doing the exact same thing with the Martial Heart!' Rui realized. 'It's the Upper Realm version of the Apprentice Realm, thus Martial Masters do for the Martial Heart and the Martial Body what Martial Apprentices did with the human body.'
That would explain why their output far surpassed Martial Seniors. They made astronomically better use of the same power than Martial Masters did. Rui recalled what Master Zeamer had told them.
'Even the feeblest of elders and the frailest of infants may split heaven and earth asunder should their bodies, minds, and souls harmonize with the flow of the universe.' Rui mused. 'He had demonstrated just how efficient his power is by generating a huge crater with just a tap.'
It was a Realm of technique and skill that Rui was far away from. And yet it was only the first step within the Upper Realms. Just how much further could one go? He didn't know. He didn't even under what there was beyond the Master Realm.
'One step at a time. Let's get these projects up and running first.' He put aside superfluous thoughts as he focused on the projects that he was working on. Master Zeamer's Martial Embodiment would serve as the basis of his misdirection. Thus needed to make sure that it was not only powerful but also easy to use. He didn't need mentally draining techniques like the Phantomind Void for his Hypnomatrix.
The Hypnomatrix was something that was designed to be used while the predictive model was being created. Which meant that it was something he had to use while his mind was gathering and processing that data. Meaning that his mind would be quite consumed with the burden of creating a predictive model.
'I can't add another big burden on top of that, that's why it's best to ensure that the Hypnomatrix is not as mentally taxing. I should avoid creating an extravagant three-dimensional video.' Rui mused as he considered the parameters. 'A video is still prudent since Master Zeamer's Martial Embodiment rotates. However, let it be two-dimensional rather than three-dimensional. This will be far easier to execute than the Phantomind Void.'
In the first place, Martial Zeamer's Martial Embodiment was two-dimensional fundamentally. It did not extend to three dimensions the way that Master Unma's blade of winds, or Master Deivon's fortress did.
That made it much more convenient for Rui to use it as the basis of his misdirection.
Time passed in Cloudia as Rui rigorously worked on creating the most refined two-dimensional GIF that he could. The more refined it was, the less energy it would take to output a better result.
