The Martial Unity

2930  Void of Death

One moment, he was barricaded by a spatial shockwave.

The very next? His Gu death strike found itself buried in the depths of the creature.

Rui had always known that he would not be able to penetrate the abyssfeeder's defenses with power alone. This was the one area where beasts and monsters had an advantage, and the abyssfeeder used its power extraordinarily well and efficiently while also having more than an order of magnitude more energy than Rui did.

He knew brute force was not the solution.

The actual solution was based on the principle of quantum tunneling.

Particles, when moving fast enough, had a much greater probability of reaching places that one would think would be impossible under classical logic. One of the reasons that Rui had sped himself up by absorbing the abyssfeeder's power with each attack was so that he could eventually reach the critical stage where there was a non-zero probability of his strike bypassing the spatial barrier of the abyssfeeder.

It took longer than he had expected.

Millions and millions of attempts over and over at speeds in the same order of magnitude as that of the speed of light until he finally managed to trigger the event of quantum tunneling.

His attack magically appeared on the other side of the abyssfeeder's defenses.
