CHAPTER 2301 IMPARTING ADAPTIVE EVOLUTION
Once Rui created the sect and set up its most fundamental parts, he left Mikhaela and the rest of his administrative staff in charge of overseeing its development. Of course, he only handed them the reins after ensuring that they had comprehended his broader priorities and objectives for the development of the sect.
They were more than competent enough to handle the details.
The major construction corporations of the Kandrian Empire all desperately leaped at the announcement that the Water Sect was looking to construct a headquarters in the enormous plot purchased in the heart of the Town of Hajin, not too far away from the Martial Academy.
It was an opportunity to forge a relationship with the Void Prince of the Kandrian Empire, after all. They would be fools to miss out on this opportunity. At the end of the day, Dealarian Infrastructures, the leading construction corporation of the Kandrian Empire, emerged victorious, securing a construction contract with the Water Sect.

"We look forward to working with you, Chairman Dealarian." Mikhaela smiled, shaking his head after all the paperwork was signed and the deal was official.
"We are honored that the Water Sect has chosen us to aid in its development," the man graciously replied. "I hoped that I would be able to convey my gratitude and conviction to deliver nothing but absolute perfection to His Highness in person, but it appears that it will have to wait for another time." Mikhaela smiled knowingly. "His Highness is unfortunately extremely busy with several important matters, including but not limited to the sect and the war. I'm sure that I don't need to tell you about the severity of the latter and the importance of His Highness in that regard."
"Of course not. His Highness is among the chief forces among Masters that are doing the most to protect the Kandrian Empire from our enemies," the man praised. "I think I can speak for everyone in the civil construction industry that we are truly grateful to His Highness for his contributions to the security of the Kandrian Empire. We would suffer incalculable losses if something were to happen to the Kandrian Empire, god forbid."
That part certainly was true.
Although powerful and large companies possessed the capital to shift countries and start anew elsewhere, they would suffer immensely doing so by cutting away years of progress in the process.
While the man sang praises of Rui in the outside world, Rui had secluded himself in the manifold as he began preparing a set of techniques derived from the systems of the Flowing Void Style.
He needed to prepare a set of techniques that was exclusive to the Water Sect to add to the incentives that those with Martial Art related to Adaptive Evolution would be attracted to. "I can't just give them individual techniques."
He frowned as he tried working through the problem to see how he ought to create techniques from his Martial Art to impart the Adaptive Evolution that he had already created into something that was more general and flexible so that it could be adapted by those who wanted to incorporate it into their Martial Art.
"The easiest to pass on is probably to Hypnomatrix."
It was a lot simpler, and the techniques were unusual but not unheard of. Imparting it was a lot simpler than imparting other parts of his Martial Art.
This was especially true for the Yggdrasil System.
"My current utilization of the Yggdrasil System makes use of three grade-nine techniques and two grade-ten techniques." He winced when he thought about how difficult it would be to pass them on. "Not to mention, it also has the Tree of Life as a part of it."
The Tree of Life was impossible to pass on.
It was born out of applying the VOID algorithm to the enormous ocean of information on the biosphere of the Panama Continent that he had received from the Elder Tree. It was absolutely impossible for him to pass it on to others, considering the extreme circumstances under which he himself had gotten the system of thought.
The only other person that he knew of who had also gained enlightenment in the Tree of Life was the Divine Doctor, but his circumstances were probably even more extreme than Rui's.
"Forget it, I don't need to impart it or the two temperature domains either." He shook his head. "Imparting simple versions of the first three domain techniques should be enough for a start."
While the complete Yggdrasil System was the most exotic and one of the most difficult systems of Adaptive Evolution in his Martial Art, one of the trickiest and messiest systems of Adaptive Evolution was something like the Metabody System.
It was one of the crudest systems of his Martial Art. He had cobbled up the technique system with the intention of being able to adaptively evolve his physical configuration to become best suited for defeating his opponent.
But they made use of strange principles and external elements that were highly unconventional; they also weren't united by any single element aside from being powered by stamina and the Hungry Pain technique. He considered it to be a learning process for creating more refined systems of Adaptive Evolution in the future. "Should I even pass on this system as it is? I'm sure there are more refined approaches that are simply easier to master than this one." For example, he recalled the set of breathing techniques that Ian Nepomniatchi had used against him decades ago, which allowed him to alter the output of his effective output configuration to achieve a less extreme version of the Metabody System.
"Hm, I should contact Master Vericita about that," he mused. "Also, I'm sure that Sir Armstrong and Master Zentra can offer input in this regard that would be extremely useful, given their specialties."
The latter owed him more than one favor, so it wasn't a big deal to ask him for help for this matter.
