I, Uchiha Hikaru, have joined the chat group.

Chapter 177, Tsukuyomi Version: "The House of Spiritual Time"

The "chakra" system is not easy to teach to people from other worlds.

Based on Uchiha Hikari's previous attempts, it seems that people from the other world cannot refine chakra on their own and can only use the portion that she injected into their bodies. Therefore, even if they learn advanced ninjutsu, they can only use it a few times and can only use basic ninjutsu such as the Three Body Technique, tree climbing, and water walking.

These abilities aren't useless in the world of Akame ga Kill!, but their effectiveness is indeed limited.

Can……

"Qi" is different.

According to the Cat Sage, people in every world can cultivate "qi". Although Lan comes from a clerical background, she once joined the "Hunter" organization in the original story and even killed Shangpu, which shows that she does have some talent in cultivation.

The only problem is time.

Even under the personal guidance of the Cat Sage, it took Uchiha Hikaru nearly a month to master "ki".

Of course, this is also related to the teaching methods of Master Kokoro. The latter's teaching philosophy is similar to that of Master Roshi, both emphasizing "accumulating knowledge and experience before unleashing it" and "letting things take their natural course." Therefore, the learning progress is relatively slow in the early stages, but the advantage is that the potential for future success is higher.

If it were Lan, there wouldn't be so many concerns; the "qi" could be directly injected into him for him to comprehend, but it's estimated that it would take at least a month of instruction.

It's impossible for Uchiha Hikaru to stay here for so long.

and so……

"Seal Tsukuyomi!"

As their eyes met, Lan's spirit was pulled into the illusion space.

This time, the scene that Uchiha Hikaru loaded into space was Korin Tower, which stands 10,000 meters in the sky.

"This is……"

Ran looked astonished as she experienced "Tsukuyomi" for the first time.

"This is a spiritual world I have constructed. At this moment, you and I both appear here as spiritual entities, or rather, as projections of our souls. No matter how long we spend here, it will only be a fleeting moment in the outside world..."

With her arms crossed, Uchiha Hikaru floated in mid-air: "Now, I'm going to talk about the concept of 'ki'. Listen carefully."

……

The Tsukuyomi Space can be used for combat, and naturally, it can also be used for cultivation.

From a certain perspective...

This place is actually a "mental time chamber" that was artificially constructed based on pupil power!

Of course, compared to the official "Mental Time Chamber", Tsukuyomi's functions are still somewhat lacking.

For example, those who come here are merely spiritual beings, so although they can learn knowledge, memorize, and think, they cannot undergo physical training. After leaving, they will have to follow the methods within the Tsukuyomi space to learn again.

Furthermore, this level of detail in simulation consumes a tremendous amount of pupil power. An ordinary kaleidoscope would never waste its precious pupil power on such a purpose; doing so would likely result in blindness after only a few uses.

Only Uchiha Hikaru, whose eye power is almost eternal, could maintain the existence of this space for such a long time.

Since the decision to teach "Qi" has been made.

Uchiha Hikaru then adopted the demeanor of a teacher and began the lesson earnestly.

Good thing...

Lan has a pretty good understanding.

By the second week in the Tsukuyomi space, he had begun to have a vague sense of "qi". By the end of the month, he had learned to release "qi" outwards, covering his body to form a protective shield.

But the art of flying is still a bit difficult.

Furthermore, Ran doesn't actually need to learn the art of flight, since his Imperial Arm, "Mostima," allows him to control the air and fly...

"...That's about it."

Uchiha Hikaru nodded slowly: "I've taught you the most basic things. The rest is about how to apply these basics. How far you can go is up to you."

As he spoke, Uchiha Hikaru released Tsukuyomi.

……

After returning to reality from the illusion space.

Uchiha Hikaru went back and slept for a day to replenish his depleted eye power.

Then, from the batch of books he bought from the Dragon Raja world, he found a few and handed them to Lan.

"These books come from another distant continent. They record several reform and revolutionary movements that occurred at different times. Although the specific circumstances differ, the ideas and concepts involved should give you some inspiration..."

"I'm looking forward to your future performance. Be careful not to die too soon."

That's a genuine statement.

Uchiha Hikaru was indeed curious to see what choices Ran would make, different from the original storyline, after recognizing the reality of the Empire ahead of time. Whatever he chose, it would likely be a very dangerous path. While Shangpu was dead, it didn't mean he would live peacefully to the end.

Faced with this unconventional "blessing".

Lan bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you, Lord Guang. I will do my best."

"Um."

The task has been completed.

Next...

"Kosmia, come here."

As he spoke, Uchiha Hikaru raised the "Shangri-La" on his wrist and began to infuse it with spiritual energy.

That's right.

Like the Pumpkin Cannon, this Imperial Arm is activated by the user's mental energy, and the teleportation process places a considerable burden on the body, so theoretically it can only be used a few times a day. However, in terms of maximum teleportation distance, it is indeed much farther than the Flying Thunder God Technique.

"Northwest direction, the destination is... 2,700 kilometers away."

As Uchiha Hikaru narrowed her eyes, a blurry image of mountains appeared in her mind.

—This is a characteristic of "Shangri-La".

At the moment of activating the Imperial Arm, the user can vaguely sense the terrain features of the location they want to teleport to and make minor adjustments to avoid being teleported to the depths of the ocean, a volcano, or other perilous places.

"……launch."

The instant their thoughts were fixed, a circular magic circle several meters in diameter shone brightly beneath Uchiha Hikaru and Kosmia's feet.

next moment……

The two figures vanished suddenly from the prefect's residence.

It was as if it were just a fleeting moment.

When his vision returned, Uchiha Hikaru stood atop a mountain peak, looking out from the towering cliffs at a vast city several kilometers away. The city walls stretching for thousands of meters, the massive towers and churches, and the bustling streets teeming with carriages and crowds all spoke of the city's prosperity.

However, to those who know the inside story, this kind of prosperity seems somewhat ironic.

"...Let's go find the place Sheila mentioned."

Uchiha Hikaru stood atop the mountain for a while, then picked up Kosmia and used the Flying Technique to soar into the air, flying towards the western side of the Imperial Capital amidst the witch songstress's screams.

Later that day.

She landed at the entrance of an unassuming bunker nestled in a dense forest.

"...This should be the place."

After comparing the images with Sheila's memories and confirming that they were correct.

Uchiha Hikaru drew the Dragon Bone Sword from the two swords on his back, took a deep breath to gather his strength, and then swung the sword to break down the door!
