The correct way for the Uchiha to rise

Balance is what all fusions need to achieve. However, the balance that Dust Release speaks of is different. There is no main body. A balance is maintained between the three attributes, rather than the balance formed by the enhancement of the last attribute by the two attributes.

But ultimately, it all comes down to a balance.

"The Dust Release's balancing technique has enlightened me."

"Balance is the most important aspect of bloodline fusion. As long as this can be achieved, nothing else matters."

What are these two paths? Ultimately, they're the same; both lead to a stable structure.

Same way.

A thought suddenly popped into Uchiha Kiyoshi's mind.

"Ultimately, it's all about maintaining balance, so there's no such thing as a balancing method or an advancement method. The two paths are essentially the same, except that the advancement method has a fixed direction due to the bloodline limit, but it requires breaking the previous balance."

This is just a difference in the prerequisites.

In the final fusion that leads to bloodline elimination, they are all the same; they all need to form a unique balance structure.

The only difference is that one type has a main attribute and the other two attributes are secondary, while the other type has three attributes without a primary or secondary distinction.

The difference between an equilateral triangle and a regular triangle!

Abstracting this, it's essentially about the different proportions of the two secondary attributes supplementing and merging the primary attribute, as well as the different proportions of the two attributes repelling or merging, which determine the side length of the triangle. What developers need to do is find this proportion and find the positions of the three vertices of the triangle under the so-called "balance"!

Both are methods of balance, but when practicing Dust Escape, it's easier to find the equilateral triangle!

"Since all three attributes can ultimately be abstracted into a triangular structure for greater stability, what about bloodline inheritance with four attributes?"

Uchiha Kiyoshi was never one to be content with the status quo. He would always use his existing knowledge to deduce more profound things. For example, at this moment, he thought of the fusion of more attributes.

I had no idea how to combine multiple attributes before, but now I have a few thoughts.

"The stability of triangles still applies, and the three properties are also stable. So does that mean that every three vertices form a triangle?"

Does it have this shape?

"Yes! A tetrahedron!" (Ahem, it's a solid figure with four triangles on each of its four faces.)

Wow! Four attributes are complicated!

What about the five attributes?

"A shape with five vertices doesn't seem to have all triangular faces, does it? It's too complicated."

No, why would I think of five attributes like that?

"Aren't pentagons pretty?"

five!

This number is very symbolic.

The Five Elements!

The five elements are described in the form of pentagons and marked in the order of mutual generation and mutual restraint!

The generating elements form a pentagon, while the restraining elements form a pentagram with these five vertices!

"That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that everyone knows about the mutual generation and restraint of the five elements. It's essential knowledge for ninjas!"

In this way, the fusion of the five elements seems easier than the fusion of the four attributes!

Uchiha Kiyoshi seemed to be deep in thought.

"No wonder I've never heard of the fusion of four attributes."

Among these ideas, Uchiha Kiyoshi did not consider Yin Release and Yang Release.

This was not taken into account.

He discovered that Yin Release and Yang Release seemed to behave differently from other attributes when they were combined.

The fusion of Yang Release with Wood Release doesn't seem to primarily utilize the original attributes of Wood Release; rather, it strengthens both attributes, and the so-called balance remains unchanged!

In other words, Yang Dun incorporates two attributes; it doesn't have a triangle, but rather two vertices.

The same likely applies to Yin Dun (陰遁).

Therefore, Yin Dun and Yang Dun are inherently different from the Five Elements attributes.

The fusion of Yin and Yang techniques involves the complete integration and enhancement of all five elements!

"In this way, the theory of bloodline succession was established all at once!"

Uchiha Kiyoshi slowly exhaled, a look of lingering satisfaction on his face.

Cultivation is so interesting.

I never imagined that a simple dust escape technique could lead to so many related concepts.

Actually, it's not that Dust Release can be derived from so many things, but Uchiha Kiyoshi made more connections. However, the usefulness of Dust Release is undeniable.

"The path of bloodline limit is open!"

This was the most unexpected thing for Uchiha Kiyoshi.

Previously, I was worried because although I had fused four bloodline limits, I didn't have a direction or idea for fusing more attributes. I could refer to Dust Release and Wood Release for bloodline elimination, but what about more?

Unexpectedly, Dust Release gave him a pleasant surprise.

We now have ideas and directions for integrating more attributes.

The balance method!

By finding points where attributes are either interconnected or mutually exclusive, and creating a stable structure among multiple attributes, bloodline inheritance can be developed.

"Now that the direction for bloodline development has been determined, I can relax a bit."

With a clear direction for his bloodline limit, Uchiha Kiyoshi felt a great weight lifted from his shoulders. He no longer needed to worry about this and could dedicate more time to other research.

The cultivation system hasn't been established yet.

Over the years, Uchiha Kiyoshi has devoted too much effort and time to developing his bloodline limit.

"From now on, we will have more time to establish a cultivation system."

The reason why he kept wasting time on bloodline limits was because Uchiha Kiyoshi thought that cultivating immortality might be inseparable from bloodline limits.

Before Foundation Establishment, one must evolve the body to its peak, which relies on bloodline limits. So what happens after Foundation Establishment? The body still needs to evolve, so it will most likely still follow the same approach of body tempering. At that time, the effect of bloodline limits may not be as obvious, and only bloodline elimination or bloodline fusion of more attributes will be effective.

Moreover, in the cultivation of immortality, both techniques and methods are important.

Bloodline limit is what is known as technique, an attack method.

Just as creating one's own path to immortality inevitably involves alchemy and weapon crafting, the offensive spells of immortal cultivators also need to be developed.

Moreover, this development is more important than alchemy and weapon crafting, since the ninja world is not at peace.

Uchiha Kiyoshi's heart stirred.

"Bloodline limit is a spell for the Qi Refining stage. Is the entry point of spells the so-called fusion of bloodline limit, and then the specific application method is the corresponding ninjutsu?"

So, higher-level bloodline techniques are considered Foundation Establishment stage spells? And Bloodline Nets are for the Golden Core stage?

You're overthinking it. Uchiha Kiyoshi is currently only at the Qi Refining stage and hasn't even figured out how to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage yet, so thinking about these things is pointless.

"Although we have obtained the cultivation method of Dust Escape, the development of Bloodline Elimination cannot begin yet. We should first establish the cultivation system and complete the process of returning to the innate state after completing the acquired state."

While Uchiha Kiyoshi was perfecting his Bloodline Limit, Tsuchishi's shadow clones had already completed the Light and Heavy Rock Techniques and the Heavy Rock Techniques, and transmitted them back through Tsuchishi, along with the Four-Tails' chakra.

It's worth mentioning that the Four-Tails' chakra was still in the form of a tail. In the end, the shadow clone left by Tsuchishi traded blows, breaking off one of the Four-Tails' tails and sealing it away with magma, unseen by anyone. At the time, Roshi was in a state of rage and not very clear-headed, so he didn't notice the shadow clone's actions.

Afterwards, the shadow clone used the Substitution Technique to replace the scroll containing the four tails with a replacement in Tsuchishi's hands.

This is also an application of the Substitution Technique, the substitution between objects.

Compared to ninjas, replacing items consumes relatively little chakra, and delivering the items across half the ninja world to Uchiha Kiyoshi is not a problem.

"The Lava Release technique has been developed, but we don't need it for now. We'll put away the Four-Tails chakra for now. With that, I now have four portions of Tailed Beast chakra."

Before I knew it, I'd already collected half!

Uchiha Kiyoya arrived in surprise at this.

"It's a pity that the Five-Tails Jinchuriki didn't appear this time, otherwise we could have obtained the Five-Tails' chakra at the same time. Moreover, the Five-Tails seems to have Boil Release, which is a bloodline limit that I haven't mastered."

"Putting aside the Tailed Beast Chakra, we need to study the Light-Weight Rock Technique and the Weighted Rock Technique carefully. These are techniques involving gravity; one reduces gravity, and the other increases it. If used properly, these two techniques can have amazing effects. Especially for clones with Gundam mode, the Weighted Rock Technique can greatly increase their attack power. At the same time, the Light-Weight Rock Technique can also make the giants' movements more convenient and faster."

The Light-Weight Rock Technique reduces the density of objects, and at a high level, it can even allow for flight. Uchiha Kiyoshi wasn't particularly concerned with flight itself; he had already achieved it, and it was quite convenient after practice, so there was no need to switch to another method. What Uchiha Kiyoshi truly valued was its ability to reduce the density of objects. While reducing the density of objects was probably impossible—it merely offset some of the mass—it was still incredibly powerful. Being able to offset the mass of an object, rendering it immune to gravity, was a very strong effect, and the chakra circulation involved must have been extremely unconventional.

Moreover, the conditions must be stringent.

"As expected, the Light and Heavy Rock Technique cannot be mastered to the point of being able to fly; it requires more than just hard work."

After studying it for only a short while, Uchiha Kiyoshi discovered how demanding the conditions for flight were.

"To achieve flight, one must master the Light-Weight Rock Technique to a very high level, and be extremely skilled and fast in chakra manipulation. However, the problem is that this places an immense strain on the crucial chakra meridians, which cannot withstand such intense chakra flow. Therefore, to master flight, the chakra meridians must be strengthened. But chakra meridians cannot be strengthened through training alone. They might strengthen slightly with improved physical abilities. Currently, the only known effective way to strengthen chakra meridians is during the adaptation period after bloodline limit awakening. A ninja who has awakened a bloodline limit might not be as physically strong as the Third Raikage, but the strength of their chakra meridians is definitely no less than his."

However, one bloodline limit adaptation period doesn't seem to be enough; at least two are needed, or even a bloodline elimination adaptation period. That's why Onoki was able to train his Light-Heavy Rock technique to the point where he could fly.

And it seems I can do it too.

Afterwards, Uchiha Kiyoshi studied the Weighted Rock Technique for a while, and after mastering its principles, he stopped studying it.

"I'll practice these two techniques after I get back. I have other things to do right now."

Chapter 202 The Land of Snow

Uchiha Kiyoshi didn't spend too much time studying the two ninjutsu. He only figured out their basic principles and then stopped studying them. As for training, he planned to wait until he returned to Kiyoshi Island.

He has important things to do now.

Having lived in the ninja world for so many years, I've never been to the Land of Snow. I've heard that the Land of Snow has advanced technology, with railways and even movies.

"Uh... there's a movie? So, do you have a camera? Oh my god, a camera!"

Uchiha Kiyoshi suddenly slapped his forehead, nearly losing his balance as he ran. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and managed to maintain his balance, preventing him from falling.

"Why would I need to copy if I have a camera?"

At that moment, Uchiha Kiyoshi realized that he had made a rather foolish mistake.

Having spent so long in the ninja world, accustomed to its harsh lifestyle, they've forgotten about technology altogether.

The camera could be used when you're secretly learning ninjutsu!
