Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 712 New Skills and Advancement
The sun rises and sets, and in the blink of an eye, another two days have passed.

During these two days, nothing happened and everything seemed so peaceful.

At the front-line camp, the investigation team from the Hidden Cloud Village has already left the Devil's Weeping Forest.

At first, Qingming and Nara Fufeng were alert for a while, worried that they would become angry and launch a second round of large-scale attacks without any consequences.

However, it turned out that the Hidden Cloud Village was not that unwise.

Yes, although the Hidden Cloud Village is a village ruled by a militant faction and is warlike in nature, they are not stupid.

The fundamental purpose of their surprise attack was to test the Hidden Leaf Village and test the control and style of the new Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, over the village.

Now that their goal has been achieved, it is naturally impossible for them to continue taking risks.

As the saying goes, if you gamble, you admit defeat.

Since they are ready to launch a surprise attack, they must be prepared to be counterattacked.

Indeed, the death of three elite teams made them feel painful, but the Hidden Cloud Village was not a small ninja village. They could still afford such losses, and it was not enough to make them lose their minds.

Therefore, it is foreseeable that for a long time in the future, the Yunyin front will most likely return to its previous state of "small fights".

This is definitely good news for Qingming.

At least, he doesn't have to spend more time on the battlefield.

In this way, he can concentrate more on his own practice.

Speaking of cultivation, Qing Ming thought for a moment and opened the proficiency panel.

It can be seen that, just like two days ago, his skill level has not been upgraded in the past two days.

However, there is an additional skill on his panel - Ninja Technique: Mind Reading!
A long time ago, when he found some records about this technique of the Yamanaka clan in Danzo's collection, he created a shadow clone to study it in addition to practicing.

Now, after nearly half a month of study, he finally referred to these records and combined his own experience of reading minds using the 'Genjutsu Sharingan' to develop his own unique mind-reading secret technique.

Qing Ming was too lazy to bother and simply named it "Ninja Technique: Mind Reading Technique".

It is worth mentioning that when this technique appears, it is in the entry-level state of level 1.

However, he didn't have any extra chakra to invest in it for the time being.

Therefore, it can only be maintained at this level.

Qingming was not very anxious about this.

Firstly, it won't be long before his 'Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique' can be successfully promoted to the perfect state of lv9 (0/0).

By then, he will have 200000 chakra points free every day, and he can use part of it to improve this technique.

Secondly, there are no enemies for the time being that require him to use this technique.

Third...

His 'Genjutsu Sharingan' is still usable, even if something unexpected happens and he needs to read minds, he can continue to use this technique.

Therefore, Qingming was not very anxious.

Quickly gathering his thoughts, Qingming closed the panel and waited quietly for a moment.

Suddenly, a surge of chakra appeared out of nowhere and poured into his body.

Along with it, there is also a slightly boring memory.

This memory does not belong to anyone else, but to the shadow clone who is responsible for guarding Shibuki.

Qing Ming closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and quickly browsed through these memories.

After confirming that there were no unusual movements from Shibuki and the Seven-Tails in his body, he raised his hands, crossed them to form the '壬' character seal, and once again performed the ninjutsu - the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique!

bang~
As a cloud of chakra smoke exploded, more than a dozen figures appeared on the scene.

Qing Ming looked at one of them and said, "Go to Nanabi."

"it is good!"

Hearing this, the shadow clone didn't waste any words. After responding, he used the "Wind Style: Wind Wings" and "Chakra Feather Cloak" and flew into the sky, flying towards the direction of the deserted island. In his sight, the figure quickly became smaller, and in a short while, it disappeared from his sight.

Qing Ming retracted his gaze and looked at the others. After arranging their respective training tasks as usual, he began the third round of training for the day.

That’s right, he has been practicing for more than two hours since he woke up in the morning.

At the same time, it also absorbed two rounds of Seven-Tails' chakra.

It's not that he doesn't want to extract more chakra at once, but even if the Seven-Tails' chakra is "seeped out", it will take some time.

Therefore, Qing Ming simply kept the frequency of extraction consistent with the frequency of recovering shadow clones and updating their status.

This way, he can save himself a lot of trouble.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind. Qing Ming collected his thoughts, stopped thinking about it, and began his own practice seriously.

······
time flies.

In the blink of an eye, it was noon.

When Qing Ming took back his shadow clones again and digested their training experience and memories, his 'Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique' was promoted to level 9 as he wished.

This is his fifth A-level ninjutsu that he has mastered to perfection, following the Rasengan, the Immortal Palm Technique, the Heart-Reflecting Technique, and the Water Style: Great Samedan Technique.

Recalling all those things, Qing Ming felt that his understanding of the 'Shuriken Shadow Clone Technique' had deepened by several levels.

Now, when he uses this technique, he can not only create more shadow shurikens, but also control them more accurately.

It can be predicted that in his hands, the power of this technique will be greatly enhanced, and the threat to mid-level and lower-level ninjas will also rise to a higher level.

Even a senior ninja would be in a state of panic if he was attacked by his concentrated firepower.

In addition, the perfection of this technique also increased his proficiency in 'Chakra Control' by nearly a thousand points.

Nowadays, his proficiency has reached level 6 (9100/10000), and is not far from being promoted to level 7.

Qing Ming had a hunch that once this skill was upgraded to level 7 and underwent a qualitative change, the energy consumption would be greatly reduced when he practiced other skills.

Then, with the same amount of chakra, he would be able to gain more proficiency, and the speed at which his skills advanced would be greatly increased.

However, these are later stories.

Now, the benefit of his promotion is that he will have 200000 more chakras at his disposal every day.

After a little thought, Qing Ming decided to use 91000 of the chakra to practice the 'Flying Thunder God Technique'.

So, plus the 209000 chakra points originally invested in it, that's a full 300000 points.

In this way, the proficiency that can be obtained every day will increase from 1390 points to 2000 points, and the speed of promotion to level 8 will be greatly increased.

As for the remaining 109000 chakra points...

Qing Ming did not hesitate at all and directly put all his energy into the newly acquired 'Ninjutsu: Mind Reading Technique'.

Qing Ming had done a test before, and it seemed that because his mental strength was far superior to that of ordinary people, practicing this technique only required an average of 100 chakra points to improve his proficiency a little.

In this way, 109000 points of chakra equals 1090 points of proficiency.

In this way, it can be predicted that it won’t be long before the level of his skill can be improved.

At that time, when you need to read the target memory again, it will definitely be easier.

After distributing the chakra, Qing Ming did not waste any more time. He immediately raised his hands to form seals and performed the "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique" again.

bang~
As a cloud of chakra smoke exploded, more than a dozen figures suddenly appeared in the field.

Just like before, Qing Ming ordered one of them to go to the deserted island to replace the shadow clone who had just returned and continue the task of guarding and extracting the Seven-Tails' chakra.

As for the rest of the people...

Then continue to practice.
