Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 1148 Result
Under the sunset.

Qingming's figure suddenly appeared.

He stood on the open ground in the center of Moon Island and let out a long breath.

As you can see, his skin was completely red, and his breath was filled with hot air from his mouth and nose.

These are all injuries he sustained in the harsh environment below.

However, thanks to the powerful recovery ability brought by his 39 points of 'Constitution' attribute, his injuries healed on their own in just a short while.

Twisting his neck, Qingming immediately deactivated the 'Multiple Shadow Clone Technique'.

In an instant, all the shadow clones, both inside and outside the island, disintegrated and vanished.

Subsequently, a large amount of memory information, chakra, and natural energy surged into his body.

As is customary, Qingming first suppressed the memories flooding his mind. Only after classifying and storing these chakra and natural energies did he begin to browse through these memory information.

It took Qingming about fifteen minutes to browse through all of these memories.

At the same time, he also absorbed and digested all the cultivation experience contained within it.

After a while, he opened his eyes again.

Then, he murmured, "It should be about time."

Indeed, after nearly ten hours of testing, he has an accurate understanding of how many shadow clones should be created to absorb natural energy and how many should develop their bloodline limits.

Let's talk about the former first.
Because he had invested a large amount of chakra in strengthening his body, the previous four hundred shadow clones were no longer enough.

Currently, it requires creating 550 shadow clones and absorbing natural energy to meet the requirements.

Of course, this requirement refers to the need to strengthen the body at full speed.

For the past two months, he has needed to dedicate six hours each day to using the "Mind Reflection Technique" to stimulate the evolution of his Sharingan, and he has been unable to devote all his time to physical enhancement.

Therefore, the original four hundred shadow clones are still sufficient.

Therefore, the chakra consumed in this area will not increase for the time being.

However, when he creates 550 shadow clones to absorb natural energy two months later, the chakra consumed will increase from 950,000 points to 1,300,000 points, an increase of 350,000 points.

Having discussed the former, let's move on to the latter.
Unlike the former, the latter now consumes significantly more.

Thanks to the surge in his mental power, he now needs to create a full 160 shadow clones to efficiently accumulate the fusion experience of the seven chakra nature transformations.

This caused his chakra consumption to increase directly from 1350 million points to 2400 million points.

In other words, the consumption increased by 1050 million points.

Clearly, this is not a small amount.

Fortunately, the improvement in his 'physical' and 'mental' attributes this time has brought him significant gains.

Otherwise, it might not be enough to offset the increase in consumption.

现如今，经过他的一番计算，每天结余的查克拉，从原来-438.2万点，提升到了711.8（=-438.2+1700+1000-1050-200-300）万点。

Of this, 1700 million is the chakra recovery amount increased by the 'Constitution' attribute, 1000 million is the recovery amount increased by the 'Spirit' attribute, and 1050 million is the loss increased by developing the Bloodline Limit.

As for two million and three million.
The former refers to the extra chakra he invested in strengthening his body.

That's right, yesterday he tested and found that the amount of chakra needed to strengthen his body was indeed 120 million points.

However, in the past two months, he has needed to set aside six hours each day to use the "Mind Reflection Technique" to stimulate the evolution of his Sharingan.

Therefore, only 9200 million chakra points were actually invested in physical enhancement, which is 9000 million more than the 200 million points invested before the transformation.

As for the remaining three million...
This is the chakra required to perform the "Mind Reflection Technique".

Therefore, in total, his daily chakra surplus increased from a negative 438.2 million points to 711.8 million points. As he said before, the surplus of 2261.8 million chakra points was merely a transitional figure.

Even the current calculated balance of 711.8 million chakra points is only a transitional phase.

Two months later, when his Sharingan's evolution reaches a critical point again, he will stop using the "Mind Reflection Technique" and redirect the six hours he used for it each day to strengthening his body. This number will then undergo a dramatic change.

Furthermore, his 'Chakra Control' will advance to level 10 in half a month, which should also change this value.

Qingming was quite looking forward to it.

Gathering his thoughts, Qingming stopped thinking about it.

He stood up, and with a thought, he directly used the 'Flying Thunder God Technique', instantly teleporting to the primeval forest in the northeastern part of the Land of Fire.

Next, he no longer needed to enter the volcano to strengthen his body, and naturally, he no longer needed to stay on Moon Island and have his wooden clone run back and forth.

Now, he can cultivate directly in this forest.

With this thought in mind, Qingming immediately began his cultivation.

He first created four hundred shadow clones to absorb natural energy and replenish the natural energy lacking in the sealed space in his abdomen.

Next, another 160 shadow clones were created specifically for developing the Bloodline Limit.

Finally, he sat cross-legged and used the "Mind Reflection Technique" to stimulate the evolution of his Sharingan.

And so he began round after round of cultivation.

······
Before we knew it, a week had passed.

During this period, Qingming returned to the village to rest once.

Even so, he had spent more than seven days strengthening his body.

This caused noticeable changes in his body.

Based on these changes, he estimated the time required for the next physical transformation.

Although he improved his body's efficiency significantly this time, the transformation still took longer than before.

Moreover, it's not just a little bit longer.

Unlike the 'spirit' attribute, which only requires a slight increase in the Sharingan's evolution level to break through the 40-point threshold, the 'physical' attribute requires a real evolution of the physical body to improve.

Obviously, physical improvement is not so easy.

Unfortunately, after this transformation, his 'physical' attribute will also reach 40 points, resulting in a qualitative change.

Therefore, the difficulty is self-evident.

According to his initial estimate, this time, it will take at least a year for his body to complete the transformation, which is three months longer than the nine months last time.

Even if he were to use the six hours he would have spent performing the "Heart Reflection Technique" on it two months later, it would still take more than nine months for it to complete the transformation.

Qingming didn't want to wait that long.

Firstly, this timeframe is indeed quite long.

Secondly, this enhancement of his 'spirit' attribute caused his mental strength to surge dramatically, making the pressure on his physical body more intense than ever before.

Admittedly, he could seal some of his spiritual power to reduce the pressure, as he had done before, but this would undoubtedly affect his other aspects of cultivation.

For example, the development of bloodline limits.

And this is something he doesn't want to delay.

Therefore, he had to find another way to shorten the time it would take for his body to transform.
