Chapter 2538 Rebirth

The air boiled with turmoil.

The atmosphere tingled electrically. Ieyasu's stoic gaze remained fixed on a meditating Rui.

He radiated unfathomable peril and power even as he meditated with deep peace and serenity.

The time was nigh.

The moment had nearly arrived.

Including the nine months that they had spent inside the manifold before the Human Summit, they had spent nearly seven years inside with Rui grinding away endlessly for Project Forge. It was the single longest continuous project that he had ever undertaken in his entire life. It was the longest training session he had ever persevered through.

Over the past seven years or so, he had developed a foundational mastery in many, many fields. Because he wasn't demanding high mastery out of each individual field, he was able to cover countless fields, becoming an extremely dynamic all-rounder.

From principles centered around collision, temperature, electromagnetism, gaseous dynamics, friction, light, and even biological principles, he developed a truly diverse and comprehensive foundation that allowed him to create many possible techniques.

It was the most tiring and patience-testing part of the project.

But not the most difficult.

The most difficult part of the project would be the system of thought he had developed in the past seven years.

He was on the very cusp of completing the Computatively Recursive Evolutionary Adaptive Technique Inception Operational Neural System

Or simply, the CREATION System.

The fact that the acronym just so happened to be a word that just so happened to be connected to the purpose of the system of thought was, of course, entirely a coincidence.

Regardless, after seven long years of toiling away, the CREATION System was soon to be completed. It was on the very brink of completion.

The air pricked at the skin even as an unfathomable weight of mind pressed down on Ieyasu who stood silently to bear witness to the completion of Project Forge that had commenced so many years ago.

On the outside, Rui was calm.

On the inside, however, his mind furiously worked, processing away every last ounce of data that needed to be processed to complete the protocols of the CREATION System. He had spent years figuring out how to model the simulation of each technique on a technical level.

He had spent even more time trying to quantify the probability of victory which served as the antitheticality parameter.

And now he was nearly there.

In the depths of his mind, the CREATION System slowly came to life. It came to life as scattered protocols of data science, mathematics, and physics all converged into a single cohesive system of thought.

It slowly came to life the data that comprised of the very fabric of the CREATION System coalesced as one.

It came to life as it began taking shape.

A shape that seemed familiar.

A forge.

A forge within which techniques were born.

"A forge of creation…" A profound whisper escaped Rui as the unfathomable power he radiated grew with each passing second, reaching uncharted territories.

And yet, he didn't stop.

Piece by piece.

It came together.

It bloomed to life with each passing moment in what felt like an eternity.

And then, suddenly, it was complete.

Suddenly, seven years of effort culminated in the blink of an eye.

Suddenly, he had arrived at his goal.

CLICK

The final iota of data found its place in the enormous expanse of the CREATION System as the forge blazed with power and life.

BADUMP

Rui's Realms of power blazed into life as his Martial Heart infused every cell in his Body with an ocean of power. Shining red lines streaked across the entirety of his Body. His Martial Mind erupted with ineffable power as each and every system of thought within it gushed with extraordinary force.

The CREATION System shined like the beacon of creation that it was. It shined brighter than anything else in the depths of Rui's mind.

It shined brighter than the darkness of the VOID algorithm.

It shined brightly.

Too brightly.

So much so that the Flowing Void Style could not tolerate the presence of the CREATION System!

"Nggg…" Rui gritted his teeth as he struggled to integrate the CREATION System into his Martial Art.

And yet, it was too much. The sheer power that it had.

The sheer possibilities that it brought to his Martial Art.

It was all too much. The Flowing Void Style was too rigid.

Too solid.

It could not withstand the endless Adaptive Evolution that the CREATION System brought along with it. RUMBLE
