The three grizzly bears, disregarding their ancestor's condition, roared and charged forward again.
Zu was relying solely on his physical abilities to constantly shift and move, dodging the attacks of the three grizzly bears.
More energy was focused on controlling the power of Qi and blood.
The body undergoes another transformation due to the simultaneous impact from both internal and external sources.
His body jolted, and Zu seemed to hear a booming sound, as if some shackles had been broken.
The internal and external forces of Qi and blood no longer exert pressure on the body. Instead, they seem to have found a target, and are released wildly, absorbed by the body, and strengthen the body in all aspects.
The ancestor's body was undergoing a transformation.
At the same time, the power of Qi and blood is also undergoing transformation.
As the energy of Qi and blood surges into the body and is absorbed, the energy of Qi and blood within the body becomes increasingly concentrated.
At this point, Zu's goal could be said to have been achieved, and the pressure from the three grizzly bears was naturally no longer needed.
Although he dared not disturb the transformation process or affect the changes in his blood and qi, Zu took out a spear from his ninja tool bag and used his physical strength to continuously inflict wounds on the grizzly bear.
The spear crafted by Maga was a divine weapon; in Zu's hands, it broke through the grizzly bear's defenses effortlessly.
As the bear kept dodging and looking for an opportunity to fire, the number of wounds on its body gradually increased.
He has never lacked combat skills; it's just that he has always been fighting them head-on for special reasons.
Seizing the opportunity, he pierced the chest of the first grizzly bear with a single shot, pulled out the spear, turned around, and thrust it into the eye of the other grizzly bear.
After dozens of rounds, the three grizzly bears had multiple fatal wounds and were on the verge of death.
Zu also stopped his movements and ceased his attack.
He kept a sliver of attention on them to prevent a final counterattack, and focused the rest of his mind on his body.
After the great battle, the ancestor's transformation seemed to have accelerated considerably.
It's almost over now.
The effects of the Qi and Blood Pill have not yet disappeared. As the power of Qi and Blood continues to flow into the body, it is improving all parts of the body. The energy replenished by the medicine is also transformed into new power of Qi and Blood.
The cycle repeats itself, as if all the Qi and Blood Elixir has been absorbed by the body.
Even Zu had some doubts about whether ten Qi and Blood Pills would be enough.
As time passed, the power of Qi and blood seemed to undergo a transformation, becoming more solid and seemingly gaining a touch of spirituality.
Zu's body shuddered, and a series of crackling sounds rang out. He felt refreshed and invigorated.
Chapter 362 The Abnormality of the Third Generation
Zu clenched his fist and felt an immense power.
Of course, he knew that this was just an illusion caused by his increased strength.
As he gains more control over his body and understands his own strength, he will gradually stop being bothered by this illusion.
Fortunately, the main body and its various clones were powerful, and the Ancestor was not without reference to the power at this stage.
In just a moment, he had a clear understanding of his own condition.
With the long period of nurturing before, my mastery of my body is exquisite. Now, after moving around a bit, I feel like I've regained control of my body.
"My body has become much stronger, breaking free of its shackles and gaining the potential to continue improving. My qi and blood have also undergone a transformation, becoming more spiritual. Is this due to the increased strength of my body?"
All systems, upon reaching the Shadow level, face the challenge of gaining insights into their own path and summarizing their cultivation. These insights will be recorded in some special way, to varying degrees.
Ninjas inherit the nature of Jonin training, recording their insights on their souls. They also begin to engage with this nature of training from the very beginning. In fact, it is easier for ninjas to break through to the Kage level.
The Onmyoji's breakthrough is driven by the breakthrough of the Shikigami, and the enlightenment is the Shikigami's enlightenment.
Now, it seems that what Zu has comprehended in his martial arts is the power of qi and blood.
The transformation of the body was all recorded by the power of Qi and blood.
From weak to strong, the body's growth and transformation, step by step, were all recorded.
Physical cultivation is about overcoming all obstacles with sheer force.
His understanding was that physical strength was the key to his success.
The reason why the way of the samurai has not developed a stable path to advancement is that it has focused on the wrong thing. The focus is on the body, not the power of qi and blood itself.
The power of Qi and blood originates from the body, so it must start from the body.
Those warriors who broke through by luck were actually mostly those who switched to other disciplines. They gained insights from their fist techniques, integrated them with their qi and blood, and underwent a transformation. This is essentially the same concept as breaking through directly after reaching a certain level in swordsmanship.
From here, the way of martial arts is truly distinguished from the way of the samurai.
In martial arts, the body is fundamental.
Having achieved a breakthrough, Zu's goal this time has naturally been accomplished.
The three grizzly bears killed the first one, and amidst the angry roars of the other two grizzly bears, Zu began creating the shikigami.
The process was the same, but of course, with experience, Zu was much more adept this time.
The Earth Spirit was born. The Ancestor killed the other two ferocious beasts and gave their souls to the Earth Spirit to devour. The three corpses were collected and prepared to be used to refine Qi and Blood Pills.
These three grizzly bears were several times larger than the Flame Tyrant, and during the battle just now, Zu had realized their formidable strength, not only in terms of ability but also in terms of physical strength.
He estimated that these three corpses were enough for him to refine nearly twenty Qi and Blood Pills.
Adding the other beast carcasses collected along the way, we should be able to refine about a hundred more Qi and Blood Pills.
The primeval continent was not lacking in wild beasts.
Through long-term natural selection, wild beasts have become much stronger. Their bodies are stronger, and they can passively absorb natural energy faster. However, despite this advantage, their consumption of resources has not increased proportionally.
With the same resources, more powerful beasts can be raised.
At the same time, human activity is very limited. Although it is spread across the entire continent, there is often only one small tribe in a large area. Moreover, due to the strength of wild beasts, the development of this area has not yet reached its limit.
In this situation, resources are not fully developed.
Throughout his hunt, Zu's actions did not have any impact on the wildlife ecosystem. Perhaps, the wildlife he had hunted over the past two weeks had already been replenished by the ecosystem's self-regulation.
"I have achieved a breakthrough in martial arts. Now I can continue to nurture and improve it. This will be another long-term process."
Moreover, if his strength encounters a bottleneck now, the pressure he needs is not something that ordinary ferocious beasts can provide.
Therefore, the collection of the remaining five elemental spirits can also be put on the agenda.
"Let's start with the Thunder Spirit in the North. The sooner we can obtain the power of thunder, the sooner we can explore the Thunder Escape Body Tempering Technique in martial arts."
"Now that my strength has broken through, with my combat experience and skills, I no longer need to be timid. I can visit some of the major tribes on the continent. I wonder if their traditions are anything special."
"At the same time, the plan to unify the continent can also begin. During the subsequent travels, we can also take the opportunity to find out the strength of other major tribes."
After finalizing the plan, Zu began refining elixirs.
Although, according to calculations, he could refine over a hundred pills.
However, for convenience, he still concentrated the pills, condensing the medicinal power of three pills into one pill, which naturally greatly reduced the number of pills that could be made.
However, it also makes it more convenient for him to take the medicine.
Alchemy is only used to assist in cultivation; there are no restrictions on the potency of the medicine.
......
Kiyoshima Island.
"Alright, the war is over. There's nothing major going on. Your task is to cultivate diligently and strive to make progress in a short period of time."
"Tian has been cultivating with me all along, and he already has a good understanding of my heritage. Moreover, he has already mastered the basics. Next, he will continue to learn sealing techniques, nourishing vital energy techniques, and cultivation of nature transformation, etc."
"Lin, your understanding of cultivation is still lacking. I will arrange for a shadow clone to guide you. Your sealing techniques and medical ninjutsu have already reached the required level. I believe it won't be long before you successfully cultivate the Nourishing Essence Technique."
"Ah, I'm so envious." Hinata Ten said with a look of envy.
With his Byakugan, even without learning medical ninjutsu, he can accurately control his chakra to a designated area and then separate his body energy to nourish various parts of his body.
However, the problem is that although he has learned the art of nourishing the body and can cultivate it, his sealing techniques are not yet up to par. He has only been able to depict the general techniques of the Uchiha Seishon and cannot adjust them to his own body to achieve comprehensive nourishment.
“Lin started learning sealing techniques a long time ago, so naturally you can’t compare. My foundation lies in sealing techniques. Although I haven’t developed sealing techniques to a very powerful level, their application is ubiquitous. You could say that if you don’t master sealing techniques, you won’t be able to learn most of my methods.”
"Alright, the affairs of the ninja world are no longer your concern. Focus on your training, I'm going into seclusion now."
After so many days, the gains from the last Pure Land have been digested, and everything has been dealt with. Even things are going smoothly with the Ancestor, so Uchiha Kiyoshi naturally wants to go to the Pure Land again to cultivate for a while.
......
Leaf.
The war ended, the ninjas on the front lines returned, and the village, led by Tsunade, celebrated for three days.
In an instant, the atmosphere of the entire village changed.
The oppressive and tense atmosphere caused by the war disappeared completely, leaving only anticipation for life and longing for the future.
The low-level ninjas were no longer needed to be used as cannon fodder. Their highly tense minds suddenly relaxed, and they even stopped training and rested at home for two or three days.
Even ninjas at the level of elite Jonin felt a great sense of relief.
But it's different for someone like Hui, who is at the Kage level.
They had been under a lot of pressure from the village on the battlefield, and their fear of the battlefield itself wasn't that great. At most, the large number of tasks on the front lines made them a little tired.
However, for those at the Shadow level, who have undergone both physical and mental transformations, this is still tolerable.
Take Minato Namikaze for example. You might not know that he was busy every day during the war, but that was no less busy than during peacetime.
Go check out the Naruto Technique; the mission log says he had over 300 A-rank missions. Keep in mind that Minato Namikaze didn't graduate early. He started at age ten (they had a four-year system) and worked for fourteen years until he was twenty-four. You might have to subtract the year he became Hokage, so it was thirteen years. Thirteen years, over 300 A-rank missions!
For at least the first three years, his strength was probably not enough to handle A-level missions. He did more than a hundred C-level missions and more than two hundred B-level missions. In the following ten years, he did more than three hundred A-level missions!
That's equivalent to one A-level mission every ten days. And an A-level mission involves a village or even a nation; completing one in ten days is already a challenge.
Ten years have passed like this.
Back then, Uchiha Kiyoshi only did this when he was grinding for mission merits, and even then, it wasn't as frequent as this.
The key is that with such a low frequency of activity, Minato Namikaze still had time to date a girlfriend. Isn't that infuriating?
The difference is evident from his current performance. After returning to the village, Hui was left idle, partly due to his own actions.
