Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 1113 Evolution
Time passes minute by minute.

In the blink of an eye, several hours had passed.

It was late at night.

On the open ground in the center of Moon Island.

Qingming remained seated cross-legged.

At this moment, he appeared calm on the outside, but in reality, a tremendous change was taking place inside him.

If a Hyuga clan ninja with the Byakugan activated were to arrive here, he would immediately notice that the chakra within him is like a flood bursting its banks, rushing from all directions towards the Byakugan at his brow along the chakra pathways that run throughout his body.

Let alone how much chakra this would consume, the sheer speed of chakra flow alone would be enough to overwhelm an ordinary ninja.

This is Qingming, whose physical body has undergone dozens of transformations, raising his 'physique' attribute to 34 points, which is why he was able to withstand it.

However, Qingming underestimated the difficulty of upgrading the Byakugan from the Mangekyou Sharingan level to the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan level.

Even though he has been pouring chakra into it with all his might, it still hasn't completed its evolution.

Judging from the results, he probably didn't need to slow down the evolution of his white eyes at all, and his body could have completed the transformation ahead of time.

All I can say is that he was somewhat flustered by this unexpected event.

However, it doesn't really matter.

Gathering his thoughts, Qingming stopped thinking and continued to gather chakra, constantly channeling it into the Byakugan between his eyebrows.

When he ran out of chakra, he drew chakra from the alternate dimension between his eyebrows.

Another hour passed, and as the moon rose overhead, Qingming suddenly opened his eyes.

"It's done!"

Qingming murmured something.

The next moment, the white of his eye, located between his eyebrows, emitted a dazzling light.

This is caused by a large amount of chakra overflowing.

At the same time, a large number of tiny pebbles floated up from the air around him, as if they had lost gravity, and spun around him for several breaths before falling back to the ground.

At this moment, the whites of his eyes, visible between his brows, returned to normal.

Well.
To say it's ordinary wouldn't be entirely accurate.

Although his white eyes no longer shine, they are even more eye-catching than before.

If his previous eye rolls were merely white jade, then now they are like top-grade diamonds; the two are simply incomparable.

Qingming concentrated his mind, carefully sensing the changes in the whites of his eyes between his eyebrows.

First, it's about improving basic white eye skills.

Perspective
After the last evolution, the range of his white eye's vision increased from one kilometer to two kilometers.

This time, however, it became three kilometers.

Don't underestimate the improvement of just one kilometer; if you consider the area, it's more than doubled.

There is no doubt that this is not a small improvement.

In terms of insight.
Qingming used his Byakugan to observe his surroundings.

The accuracy has been improved significantly, as can be seen with the naked eye.

In the past, if the distance was too far, he couldn't see the details clearly.

But now, even at the limit of his X-ray vision, he can see the meridians in the human body and the chakra flowing within them.

Thus, by combining the two, his reconnaissance capabilities were significantly enhanced.

Secondly, there's the enhancement of the Byakugan's special abilities.

After his last evolution, his Byakugan gained two special abilities: the ability to absorb chakra remotely and the ability to manipulate gravity and repulsion. However, at that time, his Byakugan was not evolved to a sufficient level, so he could not fully utilize these two abilities.

The latter is fine, at least it can help him fly.

The former, on the other hand, is really rather useless.

With the 'Chakra Absorption Technique' available, his ability to neither instantly drain the target's chakra nor cast the technique from too far away is completely useless.

Things are different now.
Although his Byakugan has not yet evolved to the level of the Tenseigan, and these two special abilities still cannot exert their full effect, their abilities have been greatly improved.

First is the ability to absorb chakra remotely.

Now, although he still cannot drain the target's chakra in an instant, the speed of extraction has indeed increased significantly, and is basically the same as when he performs the 'Chakra Absorption Technique'.

However, to perform the 'Chakra Absorption Technique,' he needs to touch the other party, which is not the case with this ability of the Byakugan.

It's fair to say that it's become much more convenient.

In addition, its casting range has been greatly increased, allowing it to absorb the target's chakra from a greater distance.

However, it should be noted that the greater the distance, the lower the absorption efficiency.

Therefore, you can forget about ambushing people from a distance.

However, on the other hand, who else in the entire ninja world is worth him doing this for?

If he can defeat the opponent, he can extract their chakra right in front of them.

He couldn't defeat them, and before he could even extract their chakra, they discovered it.

Therefore, although this ability is no longer useless to him, its usefulness is still relatively limited.

The other special ability is different; its improvement is truly significant.

Previously, when he used his Byakugan to manipulate gravity, he could only pull up objects weighing up to one hundred tons.

but now.
Qingming glanced around.

The target was locked on a boulder a few dozen meters away. Without getting up, he simply raised his hand, and the boulder trembled before slowly floating up.

Then, Qingming flicked his finger, and the creature flew straight toward him as if it had been pulled by something.

As the boulder drew closer, Qingming suddenly raised his palm, making a gesture to stop moving forward.

Instantly, the boulder stopped in mid-air.

Then, he flicked his hand backward, and the boulder flew out like a cannonball.

Boom~
A loud noise was heard.

As you can see, several large trees in the distance have had their trunks broken, and boulders have fallen to the ground, splashing up a lot of mud.

Based on the size of the boulder and the pressure he was under, Qingming estimated that the amount of gravity he could control had increased about tenfold after this evolution.

That is, around one thousand tons.

One thousand tons
This number sounds like a lot, but it's actually not that big.

Let's take a water balloon as an example again. A water balloon weighing one thousand tons is only about twelve meters in diameter.

In other words, relying solely on gravity, he could only lift a water sphere this size.

Compared to the Tenseigan at its peak, which could control the movement of planets, this is nothing.

Therefore, Qingming was not particularly surprised by such an improvement.

He even realized from the huge gap between his current state and the Tenseigan just how difficult it would be for him to advance to the Tenseigan.

Unlike the Sharingan, which progresses step by step, the transformation from the Byakugan to the Tenseigan is a true qualitative leap, with an incredibly high level of difficulty.

Even though he had broken down the difficulty into several levels using the panel, his intuition told him that this final step would still not be easy.
