I will use the ninja world to aid my cultivation of immortality.

Besides bringing a steady stream of fiscal revenue, this also allowed our country's status in the ninja world to gradually surpass that of the other four great nations.

Upon waking up in the morning, Naraku, as usual, had Garuro report on the situation both domestically and internationally.

"That sounds good!" Naraku smiled slightly upon hearing about the development in the country.

When the "Heavenly One Divine Water" reached the minor completion stage, he once again dispatched a large number of true qi shadow clones to improve the ecological environment of the Star Kingdom.

This improvement has completely elevated the Star Kingdom's ecological environment far above that of other countries.

At the same time, the water was used for irrigation with the Heavenly Divine Water.

He not only used it for cultivating medicinal herbs, but also arranged for the development of agriculture.

The results are now in.

The agricultural industry of the Star Country has surpassed that of all other countries and is unparalleled in the entire ninja world.

Putting aside its status, the revenue alone is enough to drive the Star Kingdom to develop faster.

"My lord, the training for the personal guard is complete. There are twenty full members and one hundred candidates. Would you like to inspect them personally?"

After finishing his report, Garuro quietly asked Naraku for instructions.

"Well then, let's meet!" Naraku nodded slightly.

Although he doesn't need protection, his personal guards are, after all, his people, and they certainly need to satisfy him.

This is why we specifically spent three months training them.

The training wasn't about skills, but about rules and loyalty.

Chapter 264 Qi Refining Level Nine

With Naraku's permission, Garuro immediately made the arrangements.

Soon, a total of 120 members of the personal guard entered the Jade Balance Hall.

"See Your Majesty!"

The guards, standing in neat rows and dressed in uniform, led by twenty official members in the front row, respectfully bowed to Naraku.

"Ok!"

Naraku nodded in response, looking at the members of his personal guard with great interest.

Well, he's very satisfied with his looks.

As he had requested, the members of his personal guard were all beautiful young women.

Among them are members of ninja clans such as the Uchiha and Inuzuka clans.

Some also came from ordinary people.

"come here!"

Suddenly, when Naraku saw one of his personal guards, his gaze paused, and he waved to him.

The person who was called was a candidate for the Royal Guard.

Moreover, among all the members of the guard, they were among the youngest, looking to be only fourteen or fifteen years old.

The girl summoned by Naraku was stunned for a moment, and then quickly stepped forward after she came to her senses.

"Your Majesty!" The girl approached Naraku and bowed respectfully.

“Kurenai Yuhi, I didn’t call you that wrong, did I?” Naraku said with interest.

Hearing Naraku call out her name, Kurenai Yuhi, who had been feeling uneasy, was suddenly overjoyed.

Although the two sides did meet a few times when they were in the Konoha Ninja Academy, it was just a meeting and they did not have any real communication.

She never expected that Naraku would know her.

"Yes, Your Majesty, my name is Kurenai Yuhi!" Although she was overjoyed, the three months of training made Kurenai Yuhi dare not be disrespectful in the slightest and she remained respectful.

"You're a bit young, otherwise you have great potential. I look forward to your future performance," Naraku said with a smile.

He naturally recognized Xi Ri Hong.

He just didn't expect that the other party would join the guard.

However, he was still looking forward to it when he thought about the other party's future adult form.

That's right.

Naraku never denied that he was a pervert, so he was very lustful towards Kurenai in her adult form.

What is the Royal Guard?

To outsiders, this is the king's personal guard.

But for Naraku, his personal guard was more like his 'great song and dance troupe'.

Otherwise, why would he make appearance requirements? It's all for a better experience.

Naraku's words not only flattered Kurenai, but also made the other members of her personal guard unconsciously cast envious and jealous glances at her.

Naraku, of course, saw this.

But he wouldn't care about such a trivial matter.

After observing the quality of the guards members, Naraku handed them over to the Hinata sisters, Rinka and Yuika, to manage.

The two sisters were the captain and vice-captain of the guard.

After dealing with the trivial matters, Naraku went to the Yaoguang Palace again.

"I'm going into seclusion for a while now. Please don't let anyone disturb me except for Nonou."

Before entering the palace, Naraku gave instructions to Hyuga Rinka and Hyuga Yuika, who were following behind him on either side.

"Yes!" Hinata Rinka and Hinata Yuika respectfully accepted the order.

When Naraku entered the palace.

In addition to skillfully guarding the palace entrance, the two women also arranged for twenty newly joined members of the personal guard to stand in two rows and guard the front of the palace together.

He flicked his wrist, releasing his inner energy.

Naraku, upon entering the palace, immediately closed the palace gates.

He looked at the group of true qi shadow clones circulating spiritual energy around the [Spirit Gathering Array Plate] in the empty palace, and naturally walked to the very center.

"Having reached the eighth level of Qi Refining, today is the perfect opportunity to break through to the ninth level!"

Sitting cross-legged on a soft cushion, Naraku took out jade bottles from the bronze tower with a wave of his hand.

Each of these jade bottles contains ten True Essence Pills.

After three months of collection and nurturing with the Heavenly Divine Water, Naraku has refined the second batch of True Essence Pills.

Meanwhile, he did not stop cultivating during this period and successfully completed the last stage of the eighth level of Qi Refining, reaching the perfect state.

His current seclusion is precisely in order to break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Calm your mind and focus your attention.

This is the most basic first step on the path of cultivating immortality.

But this fundamental first step is often the most indispensable.

With his mind and spirit united, Naraku quickly entered the ethereal state that was optimal for cultivation.

He activated the nameless martial art.

The powerful true energy gathered in the dantian and was compressed step by step to its limit.

boom! ! !

Da Yin Xisheng.

The burst of energy after reaching the limit instantly caused true energy to surge and rush forward, impacting the invisible shackles of the realm.

Having reached the eighth level of Qi Refining, the shackles of cultivation level become even more solid if one wants to break through to the next level.

Although the advancement of spiritual roots weakens the shackles of realm, the ninth level of Qi Refining is still the last level of the Qi Refining stage, and breaking through it is still not an easy task.

The [Spirit Gathering Array] increases the concentration of spiritual energy by 30%.

When Naraku broke through using the nameless technique, the surrounding spiritual energy gathered and became an aid to his breakthrough.

But this is not enough.

Even with a 30% increase in concentration, the spiritual energy in the ninja world is still too thin.

Relying solely on spiritual energy is clearly not enough to break through in one go.

Bang bang bang~~~~

Inside the palace, the true energy shadow clones, which had already pushed their spiritual energy to its limit, were all dispelled.

The spiritual energy generated from breathing out originates within the body, forming an even greater second wave of support.

Open your mouth.

The True Essence Pills from the several jade bottles in front of him flew out and fell into Naraku's mouth.
