The correct way for the Uchiha to rise

"Can we guide it simultaneously, using part Water Release and part Wind Release?"

Hmm... I'll give it a try.

Uchiha Kiyoshi created another shadow clone, prepared everything, and instructed the opponent to use Water Release on half of his mixed chakra and Wind Release on the other half.

Yes, it did have an effect: half of the Three-Tails' chakra was converted into Wind Release chakra, and the other half into Water Release chakra...

There's nothing wrong with this result.

The situation became awkward once again.

How could this happen?

Uchiha Kiyoshi also had doubts.

The Three-Tails' chakra is also divided into two parts, which is understandable, but why isn't it guided at the same time?

Could it be that there isn't enough quantity?

The chakra of a shadow clone can be used to guide the chakra of the Three-Tails. However, only half of the chakra guided by the shadow clone is used to generate water-style transformations, so only half of the Three-Tails' chakra can be affected.

"So, we need to increase the amount of chakra channeled by the Shadow Clones, or reduce the proportion of the Three-Tails' chakra?"

Uchiha Kiyoshi ordered his shadow clones to conduct the experiment again.

The amount of chakra that Shadow Clones can rapidly imbue with nature-changing properties is limited; it's not a matter of instantly converting as much chakra as one has.

Like the tailed beasts, their chakra is enormous, but they cannot use all of it at once.

Currently, the amount of chakra he can instantly convert is only 1 liter.

Therefore, the Three-Tails chakra used in the experiment was only about 100 calories.

If it were halved again, Uchiha Kiyoshi couldn't believe he would be able to study the changes in 50 chakra.

Fifty calories, a distant goal during my time at the Ninja Academy, now seems so insignificant.

"It's not that fifty calories of Ice Release chakra is too little, it's just that researching Ice Release chakra can only be done by me using my own chakra to break it down or observe it. After all, it's not my own chakra, so I can't control it. I can only move and distract it by wrapping it with my own chakra."

As the amount of chakra increases, the minimum amount of chakra that can be controlled also increases proportionally. With my current level of chakra control, without hand seals, I can only control about 100 calories of chakra on my own.

This is already one three-thousandth of his chakra reserves. Back when Uchiha Kiyoshi was able to directly control one percent of his own chakra, he was already one of the best ninjas. You can imagine how high Uchiha Kiyoshi's level of chakra control is now.

Even so, it can only control 100 calories.

With 50 kilocalories of the Three-Tails' Ice Release chakra, even controlling its movement would be a problem.

"We can't reduce it any further. 100 cards is already the limit. Let's add another Shadow Clone."

It's a bit of an exaggeration that a simple attempt to trigger Ice Release requires the waste of two Shadow Clones, resulting in a loss of twice the training experience.

However, anything that can help develop Ice Release is worthwhile.

The two shadow clones stood face to face, each holding about one hundred calories of Three-Tails chakra.

At the same time, he mixed in one liter of his own chakra. The two shadow clones suppressed the more than two liters of chakra to the size of a ball, and the deep blue light was very dazzling.

The red Three-Tails chakra was almost invisible.

The two shadow clones each used Water Release and Wind Release transformations on their own chakra.

Uchiha Kiyoshi activated his Sharingan to carefully observe the changes in the chakra sphere. The almost invisible red tailed beast chakra could be barely seen under the Sharingan's observation.

Under Uchiha Kiyoshi's observation, the red tailed beast chakra began to change, gradually turning white, and at this moment, a cold aura emanated from the chakra sphere.

"It's done!"

The two shadow clones dispersed their chakra, and the Three-Tails' chakra, which was originally evenly distributed in the chakra sphere, began to gather, eventually forming a ball the size of a thumb.

Looking at the ice-style chakra before him, Uchiha Kiyoshi was both excited and relieved.

The Three-Tails is skilled in Ice Release.

In this way, the Three-Tails' chakra, in addition to serving as a battery, also has the function of assisting in its training in Ice Release.

Moreover, although Uchiha Kiyoshi never said it, he knew that the tailed beast chakra had another function.

A hidden function that has been overlooked by everyone.

That is the aid to cultivating immortal techniques.

That's right, it can assist in cultivating immortal techniques.

Chapter 164 The Plan

Uchiha Kiyoshi's path was decided long ago: to cultivate immortality.

Uchiha Kiyoshi had been searching for a way to cultivate Sage Mode all along.

Or rather, it is a search for ways to perceive natural energy.

Cultivating immortality, cultivating immortality, if you can't absorb "spiritual energy," what kind of cultivation is that?

Therefore, no matter how perfect other theories are, as long as Uchiha Kiyoshi does not sense natural energy, he will never be able to truly cultivate immortality.

The most direct way to perceive natural energy, which is also the method in the original work, is to find places where natural energy is abundant, then absorb natural energy through a medium such as toad oil, and then expel it. Through this cycle, one can gradually perceive natural energy.

The two most important factors are the abundance of natural energy that is easy to perceive, and the repeated attempts.

The places richest in natural energy are none other than the three sacred sites.

Uchiha Kiyoshi did not want to go to the three holy lands for certain reasons, so this condition could not be met.

The only way to perceive this is by repeatedly experiencing the flow of natural energy through the body, as described in the second point.

Uchiha Kiyoshi then focused his attention on the body's energy.

After all, in his theory, bodily energy is natural energy diluted to its extreme. Although it may have been reduced by one or half a level, it doesn't change the fact that bodily energy is diluted natural energy. As long as one can trace the source of bodily energy through the process of extracting bodily energy from food, and eventually be able to directly perceive the "natural energy" in food, then it is equivalent to Uchiha Kiyoshi perceiving natural energy.

Uchiha Kiyoshi's recent refinement of the Nourishing Vitality Technique was aimed at this direction. At that time, the Nourishing Vitality Technique still needed the body to provide some substances to function properly, which meant that the time and number of times the Nourishing Vitality Technique could be used each day were limited, and it was impossible to repeatedly extract energy from the body in large quantities.

Two years ago, Uchiha Kiyoshi, who had completed a transformation in his training that resulted in enzymes that functioned similarly to those provided by his body, no longer needed to rely on his body to cultivate the Nourishing Vitality Technique.

The extraction of chakra can be completed solely within the chakra model constructed by his own cultivation technique.

Unfortunately, after two years, Uchiha Kiyoshi still failed to successfully sense natural energy.

However, after two years of hard work, he did not come away empty-handed; at least he was certain that his direction was correct.

I can trace the source of the body's energy in food, but I have no concept of natural energy and cannot pinpoint its exact location.

It's like finding a box, but you don't know what's inside that you want.

At this point, what Uchiha Kiyoshi needs is an understanding of natural energy. If he can sense the flow of natural energy and compare it with what he saw in the "box," he can quickly and easily identify the so-called natural energy.

Whether the Tailed Beasts possessed Sage Mode is unclear, but they certainly could "stir up" natural energy.

The process by which tailed beasts recover chakra involves absorbing natural energy, which causes a flow of natural energy around them.

Moreover, with such a massive amount of chakra restored, the flow of natural energy is naturally quite noticeable.

Unfortunately, the Earth and Stone Clone failed to capture the Three-Tails this time. Of course, this cannot be blamed on the Earth and Stone Clone; it did try its best, and it did not come away empty-handed, at least it brought back the Three-Tails' tail.

In the original work, Kurama (the Nine-Tails) possesses the ability to refine Sage Chakra, which means that other Tailed Beasts may also have such an ability.

Unfortunately, he only had one of the three tails, so even if the tailed beast possessed Sage Mode, it wouldn't be of any real use to him.

On the contrary, what is useful to me is the ability of the Tailed Beasts to absorb natural energy and restore chakra.

He possesses the tail of a tailed beast. As long as he continuously consumes this chakra, the tail will automatically absorb the natural energy of the surrounding environment to restore his chakra.

This is what Uchiha Kiyoshi needed.

By constantly perceiving and comparing what is decreasing near the tail with what is found in the food you trace back to, you will soon be able to identify natural energy.

"And once you can sense natural energy, then immortal techniques become much easier to cultivate."

Unlike other ninjas who can only use their main body or shadow clones to cultivate Sage Mode, Uchiha Kiyoshi possesses clones created through his clone technique. He can use these clones to cultivate, as he uses secondary chakra to practice Sage Mode. Even if he fails, he will not be harmed as long as the original chakra of the shadow clone is removed before it becomes tainted by natural energy.

"Therefore, the next period of time will be spent researching ice escape techniques and sensing natural energy."

......

Hidden Rock Village.

Uchiha Kiyoshi was making plans for his next research project, and Tsuchishi naturally had his own plans as well.

After several days of travel, the soil and rocks returned to the mountains surrounding Yanyin Village.

This battle with the Three-Tails made him realize his own shortcomings, and he plans to make a good plan to increase his strength.

Originally, this clone of Tu Shi mainly cultivated Earth Release, but now that it has also developed Lava Release, it will most likely focus on developing Lava Release in the future.

Therefore, Tsuchi and Ishi need to pay more attention to the development of Lava Release, especially the development of Lava Release Gundam Mode.

While the Lava Release: Gundam Mode has been initially developed, it is still not perfect. First, its size is insufficient; the current Lava Giant is only fifty meters tall, smaller than the Three-Tails, let alone compared to Madara Uchiha's Complete Susanoo or Hashirama Senju's Thousand-Armed Buddha. Second, there is a difference in hardness; its own Lava Giant's defense is still not high. A single Tailed Beast Ball completely shattered it into pieces, essentially just a pile of magma.

The next steps to improve the Lava Release Gundam Mode will focus on these two points, which are also the goals that Tsuchishi will be working on for the foreseeable future.

Putting aside physical size, in terms of defense, Tsuchishi thinks he could refer to Old Stone's Lava Release Chakra Mode to see how the opponent's lava armor is constructed. Besides that, the chakra armor technology of the Land of Snow could also be a reference...

Furthermore, it would be even better if one could learn the Heavy Rock Technique and Light-Heavy Rock Technique from Iwagakure. When the Lava Giant moves, it can use a Light-Heavy Rock Technique to greatly increase its mobility, and then use a Heavy Rock Technique when attacking to multiply its attack power.

This is absolutely awesome!

However, these plans don't seem to be very friendly to Iwagakure...

Hidden Mist Village.

The real Uchiha Kiyoshi's clone in Kirigakure's next goal is to contact the Mizuki clan ninjas in the village and try to obtain the ice they create to help his main body train in Ice Release.

While the main body can guide the tailed beast's chakra into ice-style chakra, it cannot create ice.

So working is still very meaningful.

Of course, besides that, the other real task is to cultivate Wind Release, improve one's Wind Release skills, and then, after the main body cultivates Ice Release, develop Ice Release as well.

After that, he truly became an Ice Release ninja.

He could use Lava Release to develop the earth and stone, which was perfect since he was also guarding Iwagakure, a village with Lava Release ninjas; the same was true for Shin, who was guarding Kirigakure, the village with the Ice Release bloodline clan, so developing Ice Release was just right for him.

This way, the original body can free up time to create its own cultivation system.

As for Maga's side, the desert area is really unsuitable for Ice Release.

However, Uchiha Kiyoshi couldn't be biased. Since both Tsuchishi and Shinichi had their bloodline limits, Maka, the first clone, couldn't be left out either.
