Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 905 Success and Surprise

After pondering for a long time, Qingming finally stopped wasting time. He raised his hands, formed seals, and performed the "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique".

bang bang bang~
As clouds of chakra smoke exploded, one hundred and fifty shadow clones appeared on the field.

Looking at these shadow clones, Qing Ming quickly grouped them.

It can be seen that after the regrouping, the number of shadow clones practicing the 'Spiritual Transformation Technique' is significantly greater.

At the same time, the number of shadow clones that developed Wood Release Kekkei Genkai and improved the 'Reflection of the Heart Technique' decreased.

This is the adjustment made by Qingming.

However, it is not the final version.

Afterwards, he will make more detailed adjustments based on the specific results of each round of training, so that all skills can be improved with the highest efficiency within a limited time.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, Qing Ming quickly gathered his thoughts, then waved his hand, asking all these shadow clones to leave and start their own practice.

At the same time, he also jumped down from the boulder, and then performed a few more 'Body Instant Techniques' and arrived at the beach.

Looking at the sparkling sea ahead, Qingming walked forward without any hesitation.

Soon, the sea water covered his ankles, then his knees, then his waist and abdomen, and finally his neck.

Qingming stopped only when the sea water was about to cover his mouth and nose.

Then he took several deep breaths to increase the oxygen content in his blood as much as possible, and then he continued to move forward, heading deeper into the sea.

Gollum~
The head was submerged.

Qing Ming opened his eyes, gathered chakra at the soles of his feet, and continued to walk forward.

After a while, he reached the depth of 110 meters where he dived yesterday.

But this time, he did not stop, but continued to move forward until the water depth was 130 meters, then he stopped.

Just as he said before, after formal training, even if he no longer deliberately strengthened his body's 'skin breathing' system, as the practice continued, his body would be strengthened in all aspects, and this ability would be passively improved.

That's why he dived to his current depth.

The pressure of the sea water at this depth is undoubtedly greater.

The environment it creates is naturally even worse.

A more severe environment will prompt his body to evolve faster, allowing him to adapt to a more severe environment.

What this means externally is that the diving depth can increase.

Obviously, this is a positive cycle.

From this, Qing Ming could almost foresee that his cultivation progress would be greatly accelerated in the next period of time.

And this is what he expected.

Gathering his thoughts, Qingming looked around, found a place at random, sat cross-legged, and then began to practice the 'Palm Immortal Technique' and 'Control of Man' to strengthen his body.

Time passes minute by minute.

Soon, an hour passed.

Qing Ming resurfaced from the water, condensed his Fire Chakra to dry his clothes, and then began to retrieve his shadow clones, absorbing and digesting their training experience and memories from the past hour.

This step took him about a quarter of an hour.

After converting all these practice experiences and memories into the proficiency of the corresponding skills, Qing Ming adjusted the grouping of the shadow clones according to their practice results.

Then, a new round of practice began.

Looking at the departing shadow clone, Qing Ming had an idea and used the 'Lightning Chakra Mode' and began his own practice.

This process also lasted for an hour.

An hour later, Qing Ming stopped practicing again, and then retrieved those shadow clones, absorbing and digesting their practice experience and memories of the past hour, and converting them into proficiency in the corresponding skills.

After that, he would further adjust the grouping of the shadow clones based on the results of his practice. In this way, every hour, Qing Ming would collect his shadow clones once, and then adjust the grouping of the shadow clones for the next hour based on the results of his practice, so that they would continue to move towards the ideal result.

At the same time, his own practice also rotates every hour.

In this way, time passed day by day.

Without the disturbance from the outside world, Qingming devoted almost all his body and mind to practice, and time passed very quickly.

In the blink of an eye, five days passed.

That day happened to be December 1st.

It's approaching noon.

Beach side.

When Qing Ming once again released the 'Multiple Shadow Clone Technique' and absorbed and digested the training experience and memories of all the shadow clones in the past hour, a sense of enlightenment emerged in his mind.

Qingming opened his eyes and stood there for a while.

Then, he raised his hands and condensed a ball of chakra in each palm.

Among them, the left palm is water escape, and the right palm is earth escape.

Qing Ming carefully adjusted the properties of the two chakras to make them fit each other as much as possible.

Time passes minute by minute.

Beads of sweat appeared on Qingming's forehead.

At a certain moment, he seemed to have grasped something and suddenly put his two palms together.

With a "pop" sound, as his two palms came together, the water escape and earth escape condensed in his palms also merged together.

A brand new change has occurred!

Qing Ming concentrated his mental strength, trying his best to stabilize the chakra on his palms, and continuously transformed water and earth jutsu, converging and merging in the middle!
At a certain moment, these fused chakras seemed to have reached a critical point.

Suddenly, a green vine appeared in his palm, like a flexible tentacle, constantly twisting and growing, full of vitality.

"Wood Release! It worked!"

Seeing this vine, Qing Ming couldn't help but speak.

After five days of intensive training, he finally took the finishing touch and successfully integrated the Wood Release Kekkei Genkai.

Moreover, unlike Yamato's lifeless Wood Release, his Wood Release is as full of vitality as Hashirama's.

Qing Ming controlled the vines in his palm to grow, entwine, and dance, making flexible movements as if he was controlling his own arms, without any hindrance.

For a while, Qingming had a lot of fun.

At a certain moment, a special feeling emerged in his heart, deep in his cells, as if something was broken, making him feel extremely comfortable.

This feeling lasted for several minutes.

After it stopped, Qing Ming felt that he could control the growth of the vines more flexibly, and while performing the same movements, he consumed less chakra.

Not only that, he felt that his body was closer to its next transformation.

If calculated based on the previously estimated practice time, it would be shortened by about a month.

There is no doubt that this was a pleasant surprise for him.

The reason for this change is actually very simple. The successful development of the Wood Release Bloodline Limit allowed him to completely activate the genes in his body that he obtained by assimilating Hashirama's cells.

This improved his physical aptitude again, and the time required to strengthen it would naturally be shortened accordingly.

And this was what he had just felt, a change coming from deep within his cells.
