Naruto: My Progress in Konoha.

Chapter 967 Practice
Now that the various changes after the Byakugan's advancement have been tested, he has also completed the distribution of chakra and made arrangements for subsequent training.

Then, it is time to start practicing.

Thinking of this, Qing Ming stood up, looked at the sun that had just risen in the distance, raised his hands, formed a seal, and performed the "Multiple Shadow Clone Technique".

bang bang bang~
As clouds of chakra smoke dissipated, more than two hundred and twenty shadow clones appeared on the field.

Qing Ming was just about to let these shadow clones go down to practice, but when the words came to his lips, he paused.

Then, he was seen to cancel the 'Multiple Shadow Clone Technique'.

Then, he performed this technique again.

However, unlike just now, this time, he created a total of 250 shadow clones.

Just now, he suddenly realized that with the improvement of his 'spiritual' attribute, he could bear more shadow clones and perform high-intensity training at the same time.

Therefore, he wasted some chakra and created two hundred and fifty shadow clones.

And these 250 shadow clones were just his estimate.

Next, he will adjust this number according to the mental pressure and the results of cultivation until a balance between efficiency and loss is achieved.

Qing Ming estimated that the number of shadow clones he would create in the end that could carry out high-intensity training at the same time would most likely exceed two hundred and fifty.

As for how much more there will be, that depends on the results of the test.

With the addition of these shadow clones, his efficiency in developing Storm Release will inevitably be improved.

Speaking of this, we have to mention his progress in this area.

In fact, after nearly a month of research, he already had some ideas on how to fuse the water chakra and the lightning chakra.

Next, as long as he had some more inspiration, he could actually start trying to fuse the two chakras.

Once this step is started, it means that he is not far from developing Storm Release.

Although this process might take him more than two months, he could still accept it if it was done without any reference.

Or rather, this is the best!
After all, his current body cannot withstand a new bloodline limit.

So, going slower has its advantages as well.

Of course, in order not to delay the subsequent development of Storm Release and the improvement of the Sharingan's evolution, he still had to improve his 'Constitution' attribute as soon as possible.

With this thought in mind, Qing Ming waved his hand and asked all the shadow clones to leave.

Then, he locked onto the Flying Thunder God Mark somewhere in the sea, and cast the 'Thunder Chakra Mode'. After condensing a layer of Thunder Chakra film to protect himself, he activated the 'Flying Thunder God Technique' without thinking.

The vision in front of me suddenly changed.

In just a moment, Qingming was teleported from the bright and comfortable Moon Island to the dark and depressing depths of the ocean.

The powerful water pressure caused the lightning film on his body to distort, as if it would collapse at any time.

But in the end, it was not broken through.

The water pressure at the current depth is still within its tolerable range.

Qing Ming carefully controlled the chakra on his body surface, allowing this layer of defense to gradually strengthen and adapt to changes in the external environment, thus returning to normal.

At the same time, 'Palm Immortal Technique' and 'Human Control' were automatically activated and began to repair the damage inside and outside his body caused by excessive pressure changes.

This process lasted about half a minute.

After everything was done, he adapted to the harsh environment of the seabed.

Afterwards, he aimed at the direction and performed the 'Earth Escape: Super-Weighted Rock Technique', which increased his weight exponentially, and then fell downwards at an extremely fast speed.

Soon, he arrived at the place where he strengthened his body last time.

However, Qing Ming still did not stop. He just slowed down slightly and continued to dive until he reached the limit that his body could bear, and then he stopped.

Feeling the tremendous pressure from the outside world and the occasional turbulence on the seabed, Qingming nodded.

Afterwards, he repeated the same trick, raised his hands to seal, and performed the Water Style: Water Breaking Wave, condensing a high-pressure water column, opening up a training platform on a relatively flat volcanic rock wall nearby. Soon, the training platform was completed.

Qing Ming did not waste any time and immediately began to strengthen his body according to the body-building methods recorded in the 'Thunder Chakra Mode' and some of his own training experiences.

During this process, he even incorporated some of the Hyuga clan's soft boxing routines to improve the efficiency of the strengthening.

As for where did you learn Rou Quan?

It's very simple. It was the shadow clone who stayed in the village who secretly learned it while spying on the Hyuga clan's technique to activate the Byakugan.

However, it is not complete enough to form an independent skill.

But once you have learned it, Qingming can fully integrate it into his own practice, just like now.
All kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, and Qingming quickly cut them off.

Then, he focused all his energy on strengthening his body.

Just like that, time passed by minute by minute.

Soon, an hour passed.

Qing Ming returned to the Moon Island again. Looking at the shadow clones who were practicing inside and outside the island, he had an idea and released the 'Multiple Shadow Clone Technique'.

bang bang bang~
In just a moment, all those shadow clones collapsed.

Then, they transformed into streams of chakra, carrying with them the practice experience and memories of the past hour, and returned to Qingming's body.

Qing Ming immediately closed his eyes and carefully browsed through these memories, absorbing and digesting the cultivation experience contained therein.

About a quarter of an hour later, he opened his eyes again.

Qing Ming rubbed his temples and felt that he could still hold on.

So, this time, he created more shadow clones and started a new round of training.

In this way, he increased the number again and again, and finally controlled the number of shadow clones to about 280.

This is almost the limit of what he can bear at the moment. If there are more, he will not be able to perfectly absorb the training experience and memories of these shadow clones, which will eventually cause chakra loss.

Qing Ming naturally wouldn't let this happen.

Therefore, he controlled the number of shadow clones to two hundred and eighty.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the increase in the number of shadow clones did not require him to invest more chakra.

Before, he invested two million chakra points per day in the research and development of Storm Release, and this number is still the same now.

The reason for this is very simple, that is, he optimized the distribution method of this part of chakra and utilized the two million points of chakra more efficiently.

Therefore, there is no need to make additional investment.

Of course, this means that the number of shadow clones added at one time is not large, and at this stage, he is mainly focusing on theoretical research and experimentation, and has not yet fully entered the practical stage.

Otherwise, as the number of shadow clones training at the same time increases, he will inevitably have to invest some chakra.

Retracting his thoughts, Qingming looked up at the sky.

At this time, it was already evening.

In the past, he should have completed his training plan and prepared to return to the village.

But unfortunately, it doesn’t work this time.

In the morning, he spent two and a half hours nurturing the whites of his eyes and did not practice anything else. Now he had to make good use of these two hours.

In addition, before returning to the village to rest this time, he planned to visit the Hidden Mist Village, the Hidden Rock Village, and the Hidden Cloud Village.

It has been more than a month since he last replaced the shadow clones of the three villages. Now it is time to replace them again.

This is best done late at night.

Therefore, he planned to continue practicing, and then return to the village to rest after finishing these things later.
