The Martial Unity

Chapter 2978  It's Time

The air in the Central Highlands grew tense.

A profound sense of peril lingered in the atmosphere, tingling away at their extraordinary instincts.

A chilling quiet had overtaken their little makeshift base as they made their very final preparations.

They had rested extremely well for an entire month prior, ensuring they each got perfect sleep and had given their bodies enough time to be able to bring out their absolute peak in the final battle.

It would be beyond foolish and irresponsible to carry the exhaustion of their training with them to the final battle. They ate well and healthily, nourishing their bodies with all the nutrients that they would need. They even spent more than a week in mental conditioning, isolating themselves in meditation to bring out their hundred and ten percent.

It wasn't something they were accustomed to doing, but in this final battle, they didn't dare to hold back even the slightest percentage of power. "You aren't going to join them?" Kane raised an eyebrow, gazing at Rui. The two of them sat beside each other on a pair of rocks at the very edge of the clearing that served as the makeshift base of the Martial Sage task force. They watched the various Martial Sages they had fought beside and trained beside in the past eleven years, doing everything in their force to maximize their chances of victory and survival.

Rui slowly turned to throw a knowing glance at Kane.

The man's green eyes had grown more intense in the past year as he prepared for the most intense battle of his entire life. The past eleven years had given him a stronger presence with a sharp edge to it. He was constantly alert and on the lookout, even though they had killed all the quasi-Transcendent beasts and monsters, it had become very difficult to relax due to the perilous life in the Beast Domain.

"…I will hone my mind," Rui remarked. "Ever since I broke through to the Sage Realm, it has become vastly easier to enter a state of absolute concentration and focus. It really doesn't take much effort anymore."
