Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 868 Changes (Two in One)

Time passes minute by minute.

About half an hour later.

Qingming opened his eyes again.

At this moment, he felt that the invisible shackles that had previously restricted his body from continuing to strengthen had disappeared, and he felt an indescribable sense of relief all over his body.

Not only that
Qingming closed his eyes and carefully felt the Hashirama cells that had been integrated into his body long ago.

Before, even though these cells had been assimilated by him by 90%, he could still feel some abnormalities because they were not one and the same.

And now, as his body was transforming, it had been completely assimilated, merged into his body, becoming his 'shape', and he could no longer feel anything unusual.

In addition, during this process, his physique or genes also underwent some changes.

Qing Ming raised his hand and condensed his chakra, as if he was going to do something.

However, after trying for a long time, there was no change in his palm.

Seeing this, Qing Ming put down his hand, sighed and said, "Alas, what a pity."

Originally, he thought that after assimilating Hashirama's cells, he might be able to master the power of Wood Release, allowing him to integrate the seven types of chakra properties and make a good start in developing the bloodline network.

However, I never expected that the surprise did not come.

However, Qingming was not too disappointed about this.

After all, when he chose the path of "assimilation", he had anticipated the current result and was mentally prepared.

not to mention.
Qing Ming carefully felt the water attribute chakra and earth attribute chakra that he had mobilized in his palms.

He had a vague feeling that as long as he worked a little harder, it wouldn't take long before he could combine the two and master the power of Wood Release.

In other words, the current failure only delayed his progress a little. As long as he persisted, he would soon get what he wanted.

Therefore, he did not find it difficult to accept.

After calming down, Qing Ming shifted his attention and opened the proficiency panel.

The next moment, a familiar light blue screen appeared:

[Name: Uchiha Qingming

Constitution: 24→25
Spirit: 26

Looking at the panel, Qing Ming immediately locked onto the "Constitution" attribute which had increased from 24 points to 25 points.

Then, his brows furrowed.

According to his speculation, since so much effort had been put into completely assimilating Hashirama's cells this time, the 'Constitution' attribute should have increased by at least two points.

However, the fact is that it has only increased slightly.

This was a little hard for him to accept.

“Inhale~~~Exhale~~~”

Take a deep breath and let it out slowly.

Qing Ming suppressed his inner doubts and began to carefully examine his condition and analyze the reasons.

After a long time, his brows relaxed again, and there was a hint of joy in his eyes.

After the inspection just now, he has discovered the reason why the 'Physique' attribute has only increased a little this time - it's all because he chose the 'Assimilation' path.

If he did not choose this path and simply fused Hashirama's cells, then his "physique" attribute would most likely be improved by two to three points, or even more.

But that would go against his original intention of choosing this path.

From the very beginning, his idea was to "put myself first", and for this he even gave up the possibility of inheriting Hashirama Senju's power.

Now it seems that his goal has been achieved. After completely assimilating Hashirama's cells, his genes have indeed undergone some changes, but he did not violently integrate the blood of the Senju clan.

It was for this reason that his 'Constitution' attribute did not improve significantly.

If it were just this, he would at most be relieved, but he wouldn't even smile.

The reason why he was happy was that although assimilating Hashirama's cells did not increase his "physique" attribute, it improved his qualifications.

Qing Ming was certain that if he used any means to strengthen his body now and consumed the same amount of chakra, the benefits he would gain would definitely be greater than before.

In other words, the efficiency of body training will be improved to a certain extent.

In this way, he could use less time and less chakra to improve more 'physique' attributes.

Qingming could still distinguish the principle of eating one meal and being full every other meal.

That's why he was so happy.

In addition, in the previous examination, he also concluded the theoretical chakra limit of this increase in the "Physique" attribute.

It is less than the 22 points that the "Constitution" attribute increased from 24 points to 800000 points, and is about 700000 points.

In other words, from today on, his theoretical chakra limit will be increased from 3150000 points to 3850000 points.

However, whether it is 3150000 points or 3850000 points, it is too far away for him now.

Even though he now passively practices the 'Chakra Extraction Technique' 611892 hours a day to tap into his body's potential, his chakra volume is only points, and the progress is less than one-sixth.

At this rate, it is unclear how long it will take to realize all of this potential.

Therefore, he was not very concerned about the increase in the theoretical chakra upper limit, but he was particularly concerned about the chakra recovery speed.

With this in mind, Qing Ming paused the operation of the 'Chakra Refining Technique' in his body, then closed his eyes and waited quietly for the chakra in his body to recover on its own.

According to past experience, his chakra recovery speed can be divided into two parts, one part is provided by the 'Chakra Refining Technique'.

Initially, this part accounted for the majority, but as his 'Physical' and 'Spiritual' attributes continued to improve, its proportion became smaller and smaller.

Now, with his 'Chakra Refining Technique' running 24 hours a day, and without raising its level, the amount of chakra that can be restored every day has reached its limit.

That is, 72000 (=3000*24) points!

As for the other part, it is the chakra that the body recovers naturally.

Previously, this part of chakra was 2350000 points, plus the 72000 points restored by the 'Chakra Refining Technique', it was exactly 2422000 points.

Now.
Qing Ming waited for about ten minutes, then opened his eyes again and looked at the panel. He could see that his 'chakra' had increased by 19444 points.

Ten minutes is 19444 points, one hour is 116664 points, and twenty-four hours in a day is 2800000 points.

This number is 2350000 points more than the previous 450000 points.

This is the increase in chakra recovery speed brought about by the improvement of his "physique" attribute this time.

After reaching this conclusion, Qing Ming nodded with satisfaction.

However, the above two changes are not all.

In addition to the improvement in his aptitude and the increase in chakra recovery speed, the transformation of his body this time also greatly improved the evolution of his Sharingan and Byakugan.

Among them, perhaps because the emergence of the Rinnegan requires the blood of the Senju clan as a catalyst, after assimilating Hashirama's cells, the degree of evolution of his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan directly increased by one thousand points.

As a result, combined with the passive improvement in his evolution degree when he used "Man's Control" to strengthen his body, his evolution degree has reached (1183/100000).

This is definitely a big improvement for Qingming, who has not yet had normal means to increase his level of evolution.

Even if he improved and completed the 'Art of Reflecting the Heart' later, one thousand points of evolution would probably not be a small improvement.

There are also white eyes
His evolution degree also transformed along with his body, increasing by an additional 500 points, directly saving him a month and a half of time.

This is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that after the improvement of his "Physique" attribute, his body's ability to withstand pressure has become even stronger.

As a part of his body, the amount of chakra that his Byakugan can withstand every day also increases.

Qingming couldn't wait to verify the extent of the improvement.

Therefore, he simply closed his eyes and mobilized the 'Seal All Things' between his eyebrows, connecting it with the white eyes.

Then, he began to draw the chakra from the alien space between his eyebrows, compressed it twice through the seal, and then injected it into the Byakugan.

Suddenly, a tingling sensation came over me.

Qing Ming forced himself to calm his mind, constantly mobilizing chakra to ensure the supply would not be interrupted, while carefully feeling the evolution process of the Byakugan.

Time passes minute by minute.

Soon, two hours passed.

Previously, even with full nourishment, his Byakugan could only withstand two hours of chakra infusion.

In this process, he will consume a total of two million chakra points and gain ten points of proficiency.

And now, this record has apparently been broken.

Two hours and ten minutes, two hours and fifteen minutes, two hours and twenty minutes
Soon, two and a half hours passed.

Finally, after two and a half hours of nurturing, he felt the familiar swelling sensation between his eyebrows and the white of his eyes.

Qingming knew that this was a sign that the Byakugan had reached its limit.

However, in order to test it accurately, he continued to infuse chakra into it.

Unfortunately, his eyes were no longer able to absorb it.

In other words, it has indeed reached its limit.

Suddenly, Qingming opened his eyes.

The first thing he did was to check the chakra loss in the strange space between his eyebrows, as well as the increase in the evolution of the Byakugan on the proficiency panel.

In two and a half hours, he consumed two and a half million chakra points and gained twelve points of evolution.

No, it should be a little more than twelve, but less than thirteen.

Although the improvement is not huge, it can save him about 20% of his time when accumulated over time.

In other words, his Byakugan can evolve to a higher level faster.

And this is what he values ​​most.

As for the extra 500,000 chakra points consumed.
Not to mention the 'Earth Style: Super Heavy Rock Technique' and 'Earth Style: Super Light and Heavy Rock Technique', as well as the 'Heart Sealing Soul: Contract Instant Body Seal' which saved him 2200000 (= 700000 + 700000 + 800000) points of chakra.

The improvement in his 'physique' attribute alone gave him an extra 450000 chakra points at his disposal.

In this way, the increased consumption of covering and nourishing the white eyes is more than enough, and there is still a lot left.

Qing Ming planned to divide these chakras into three parts, one of which would naturally be used to improve the 'Art of Reflecting the Heart'.

Now, the 'Hashirama cells' in his body have been completely assimilated, and there is no obstacle to continuing to improve the Sharingan.

So, it's time to up it.

In order to improve its evolution, the 'Art of Reflecting the Heart' that has been passed down from generation to generation is the most suitable.

Previously, he had spent a lot of chakra and completed a large part of theoretical improvements.

Next, he planned to invest one million chakra points every day to make further improvements.

Qing Ming estimated that this wouldn't take him long.

And once the improvement is completed, these chakras will be transferred on the spot to promote the evolution of the Sharingan.

The investment of one million chakra points every day is undoubtedly very large compared to the consumption he previously used to perform the "Reflection of the Heart Technique" to increase the evolution of the Sharingan.

But thinking back to when his Sharingan was upgraded from Mangekyō to Eternal Mangekyō, he used the 'Heart Reflection Technique' to cause it to evolve, but couldn't see any effect for a long time. Qingming was still worried that the chakra would not be enough!

He was almost certain that this time, causing the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan to evolve into the Rinnegan would definitely consume a large amount of chakra.

This can be seen from the fact that it took Uchiha Madara decades to complete the evolution of the Rinnegan.

Fortunately, he still has enough chakra now. Even if one million chakra points are not enough, he can continue to increase his investment.

However, before that, he planned to put the remaining chakra into the fusion of various chakra property changes.

This step is a prerequisite for him to integrate all seven chakra property changes and master the bloodline network.

Therefore, no matter how much chakra you invest, it is never too much.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind. Qing Ming pondered for a while, then collected his thoughts, refocused his attention, and looked at the panel.

It can be seen that the only skill he needs to practice now, besides 'Izanagi' and 'Izanami', is the advanced ninjutsu of 'Wind Style: Wind Wings'.

According to the current progress, his 'Wind Style: Wind Wings' will be successfully promoted to level 9 (0/0) in just three days.

By then, he will have an additional 286000 chakras at his disposal.

However, it is likely that these Chakra Qingming cannot be invested in the development of the Bloodline Network.

According to his estimation, Minato Namikaze will take action in one or two days.

By then, when the village is in chaos, he can try to acquire the 'Spiritualization Technique'.

Once he obtains this technique, he will have to use these chakras to practice in this area.

He even had to allocate another portion of chakra to speed up the growth of this technique.

Of course, these are all things for the future, and he doesn’t need to pay too much attention to them for now.

Finally, Qingming closed the panel after taking a look at the 'Chakra Control' whose proficiency had been improved due to the completion of 'Fire Style: Concentrated Flame Strike', 'Earth Style: Super Heavy Rock Technique', 'Earth Style: Super Light and Heavy Rock Technique', and 'Heart Sealing Soul: Contracted Instant Body Seal'.
