Naruto: My setting is above yours.

From the perspective of his primordial spirit, Xuanma discovered that he had gained the ability to see inside his body. His body was clearly visible, and he could see muscle fibers, bones, internal organs, meridian system, and even individual active cells.

This is something that spiritual energy could not do before.

Previously, the mind could only sense, not "see," and perceive colorful images.

Moreover, Xuanma not only saw it, but he also felt that his mental consciousness was connected to every organ and every cell, and that he could precisely control them.

Or rather, give them orders.

"This falls under the category of the subconscious, which governs bodily functions and the operation of all organs."

Xuanma was both surprised and delighted, something that could not be directly influenced by acquired mental consciousness.

For example, stopping the heart from contracting.

However, now Xuanma feels he can do it!

However, instead of trying that, he tried to absorb natural energy to refine Sage Chakra.

Soon, the Sage Chakra was extracted and traveled along the meridian system to the abode of the Primordial Spirit, where it merged with the Primordial Spirit.

Xuanma felt much more at ease now, as if he were wearing a new set of clothes.

Then he astraled his body, and it felt no different from the spiritual transformation technique.

After his primordial spirit returned to his body, Xuanma formed a hand seal and created a shadow clone.

Then, Xuanma let his primordial spirit relinquish control over his body and return it to his acquired mental consciousness. Then, his shadow clone cast illusions on his main body.

Magical Spider Binding!

Instantly, his body was frozen in place. Xuanma felt as if his body was bound by a spider web, unable to make any physical movements.

Xuanma immediately revived the primordial spirit.

In an instant, the primordial spirit within the spiritual and mental world of the Niwan Palace opened its eyes.

In an instant, Xuanma felt his consciousness enter a higher dimension. From the perspective of his primordial spirit, it was an illusion that severed the transmission of conscious information from his acquired mental consciousness to his body, thus immobilizing his body.

And with this, under the guidance of the primordial spirit, Xuanma regained control of his body with a single thought, and the illusion was broken!

Clearly, this is the independence, autonomy, and transcendence of the primordial spirit!

"In other words, illusions can at most affect my acquired mental consciousness's perception of my body and the outside world, but cannot affect the primordial spirit at the core of my soul."

Xuanma pondered to himself, "Once the primordial spirit awakens and takes over from the acquired mental consciousness to dominate everything, then the illusion will be broken."

This means immunity to all illusions?!

Chapter 97 Flying Thunder God

Xuanma felt it was too early to draw a direct conclusion about whether one could be immune to illusions.

Because among the many illusions, there are some that are quite special.

For example, Tsukuyomi, and Kotoamatsukami!

However, after careful analysis, Genma concluded that even if Tsukuyomi and Kotoamatsukami directly affect the mind and consciousness, they should only affect the acquired mind and consciousness.

"It's a pity I don't know how, otherwise I would definitely give myself a go!"

Xuanma sighed inwardly.

He then had his shadow clone continue casting illusions on him.

One illusion after another descended upon me, when my acquired consciousness dominated my body, and when my primordial spirit dominated my body.

And as it turns out, even when the primordial spirit dominates the body, the acquired mental consciousness is the first to be affected.

The acquired mental consciousness is like a layer of armor for the primordial spirit.

Only by breaking through this armor can one affect the primordial spirit.

However, before the breakthrough, the primordial spirit had already dispelled the illusion.

After trying this, Xuanma was absolutely certain that he was immune to ordinary illusions!

But this is not the only function of the primordial spirit.

Xuanma didn't even think it was the most important thing.

He believes its greatest function is the control over the body's subconscious.

This means he can control his metabolism, control the secretion of various hormones, and control his body to perform all sorts of inhuman actions.

In particular, his body itself possesses the high elasticity and extensibility of rubber.

"Those 99 points were totally worth it!"

Xuanma was very satisfied and then continued to explore the mysteries of the primordial spirit.

Silent all night.

The following day, after receiving a notification from the Anbu, Genma arrived at the Hokage Building.

"teacher!"

Upon seeing Sakumo Hatake, Genma quickly stepped forward.

"Let's go, the Hokage wants to see you."

Sakumo Hatake said with a smile.

Xuanma caught up and asked, "Is there something you need?"

Sakumo Hatake said, "You made the greatest contribution to the war against Kumogakure this time, so you should be rewarded with ninjutsu. You can think carefully about which ninjutsu to choose to learn."

"The other one should be about your promotion to Jonin!"

Ninjutsu and Jonin?

Xuanma nodded: "Understood."

"Teacher, is there still an examination required to be promoted to Jonin?"

Sakumo Hatake shook his head: "I don't know, but it existed in the past."

"But for you, those assessments don't mean much."

As he spoke, Hatake Sakumo smiled and remarked, "You're not even 11 years old yet. Even if you were 11, you would still be the youngest Jonin in Konoha's history."

"I'm afraid we'll never see such a young Jonin again."

Xuanma laughed and said, "Teacher, that's hard to say. Maybe someone even more talented than me will appear in the future!"

As they spoke, the two arrived in front of the Hokage's office.

Sakumo Hatake knocked on the door and entered.

"It's Sakumo and Genma!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was in his office, looked up and gave a gentle smile.

"Hokage-sama~"

Genma and Hatake Sakumo both paid their respects.

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded slightly and then asked Sakumo Hatake, "Sakumo, what suggestions do you have regarding Genma's promotion to Jonin?"

Hatake Sakumo was prepared and said directly, "Genma's strength is indeed enough to stand on his own. As his mentor, I believe he has enough ability to serve as a Jonin."

As expected by Hiruzen Sarutobi, he nodded and looked at Genma Mikazuki: "Genma, because it is a special period of war, and with your strength, the original Jonin assessment would hardly be of any use. Therefore, after consulting with the higher-ups, several Jonin, and your instructor, I have specially promoted you to Jonin."

"The order takes effect immediately. You can fill out a form later."

Genma solemnly replied, "Yes, thank you, Lord Hokage. I will continue to work hard."

Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled and said, "In addition, in view of your battle achievements, you are allowed to choose one non-prohibited ninjutsu from the village, without any level restrictions."

"Is there any particular ninjutsu you'd like to learn?"

Without hesitation, Genma said, "I want to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique developed by the Second Hokage."

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded: "I heard that you created your own space-time ninjutsu, so choosing the Flying Thunder God Technique is indeed very suitable."

"I'll have the secret service make a copy for you later."

"Now, let's await orders!"

Xuanma replied, "Understood!"

He then filled out a form, picked up his Jonin vest, and then the Flying Thunder God scroll.

As for the teacher, Hatake Sakumo, he was still in the Hokage's office.

With Yufeng Genma becoming a Jonin and leading a team independently, he will obviously have other plans.

Half an hour later, Genma waited for his teacher, Hatake Sakumo, outside the Hokage Building.

The two left together, and Sakumo Hatake began to ramble on about his experience in leading teams to Genma.

Genma listened attentively; these were the valuable experiences of an excellent ninja.

At noon, the members of the Shuomao team ate barbecue together.

It was both a celebration of Yufeng Genma becoming a Jonin and a farewell dinner.

"Mr. Sakumo, what are your plans for the future?"

Yamashiro Aoba asked while brushing the grilled meat.

Jingyin was also curious: "Teacher, are we forming a separate team?"

"Actually, it wouldn't be a problem if you continued to lead us, would it?"

Sakumo Hatake laughed and said, "Although there are Jonin squads, they are not regular in most cases."

"Moreover, this way, Xuanma won't be able to accumulate experience in leading a team."

The silence suddenly dawned on him.

Sakumo Hatake continued, "The teacher's arrangements are similar to before; he will be responsible for leading three senior Chunin."

"However, it is wartime now, and we will go to the Iwagakure battlefield in two days, so the team formation may have to be postponed."

Shizune exclaimed, "Are we going so soon?"
