Just like what the White Snake Immortal said before, the natural energy seeds in Qi Mu Ming's body can indeed absorb natural energy from the outside world independently, so Qi Mu Ming does not need to worry about endurance issues.

But the disadvantage is, as the White Snake Immortal said, if the natural energy from the outside is insufficient, then the natural energy seeds in Qi Mu Ming's body will absorb Qi Mu Ming's own life energy in order to maintain its existence.

Encountering this situation was a bit embarrassing for Akira Hatake.

With his current physical condition, he relies on multiple pieces of "Conqueror Heavy Armor" to basically maintain the balance of income and expenditure as his vital signs evolve towards the Six Paths level.

If the life energy consumed daily by the natural energy seeds in the body is added, this balance will be broken, and Hatake Akira will once again fall into a situation where his income is not enough to cover his expenses.

Before this happens, while Akira Hatake is dormant and evolving his life essence, he can take action to meet the enemy or even engage in a major battle.

However, after the natural energy seeds intervened, Hatake Akira had no choice but to retreat completely and try his best to avoid fighting with others.

It is true that Hatake Akira wanted to be lazy, but the restriction of not being able to fight with others still made Hatake Akira very uncomfortable.

Not wanting to move and not being able to move are two different things. Hatake Akira doesn't want to be slowed down by the natural energy seeds.

Hatake Akira didn't have a good solution to eliminate the influence of the life energy seeds in his body.

It is not impossible to continue adding equipment to the equipment mall, but the number of equipment required will make it difficult for Hatake Akira to accept.

Let’s put it this way, to fight against the Tengai Ōtsutsuki clan that will inevitably descend upon the ninja world in the future, it will not be enough for Hatake Akira alone.

Hatake Akira needs to train some combat forces that are equal to him or slightly weaker than him.

Kakashi, Minato Namikaze, and Might Guy, these three people were reserved by Hatake tomorrow morning, so the equipment given to them must be indispensable.

After calculating the number of gold coins he currently had, Hatake Mington felt overwhelmed.

From the beginning to the end of the Third World War, the number of gold coins accumulated by Hatake Akira had already exceeded 5, but he alone consumed nearly of them.

As for the remaining 5, Akira Hatake also planned to reserve a portion for emergencies, so if the remaining amount was distributed equally among Kakashi and the other three, it would become very little.

Decreasing their number means that the strength growth of the three will become slower. It is possible that by the time the new generation grows up, Kakashi and the other two may not have reached the Six Paths level yet.

Although if it were a last resort, Hatake Akira would definitely choose to spend all the gold coins in his stock on himself, but now he is not at the end of his rope, he can only think of other ways to solve his own problems.

He stretched out his hand and pinched his eyebrows, with a sad look on his face.

"Do you want me to stay in Longdi Cave for a while?"

But as soon as he had this thought, Hatake Akira shook his head and put the idea behind him.

Staying in Longdi Cave can indeed meet the daily needs of natural energy seeds, but the problem is that this kind of life will not last for a long time.

According to Akira Hatake's previous estimate, it would take him three years to completely evolve his vital signs into the six-path level vital signs.

If he wants to maintain this time, it means that Hatake Akira has to stay in Ryuchi Cave for three years.

Hatake Akira simply couldn't accept such a long time!

Not to mention that it will slow down the progress of many of Hatake Akira's plans, it will also bring some unpredictable changes to Konoha and the entire ninja world.

Moreover, Uzumaki Kushina's due date is approaching, and Uchiha Obito, the blackened fool, still needs Hatake Akira to take action personally...

One thing after another made it impossible for Hatake Akira to get away, let alone stay in Ryuchi Cave for three years with peace of mind.

How to do?

Hatake Akira was a little distressed. After thinking fruitlessly, he could only look to the White Snake Immortal for help.

After seeing Hatake Akira's expression, the latter's expression became a little puzzled. Perhaps she had expected it, or perhaps this was what the White Snake Immortal intended.

"Hatake Akira, it's very simple to solve your current trouble, but... why should I tell you?"

The White Snake Immortal smiled and said, "I am not your babysitter, and I have no reason to help you unconditionally."

"Then what do you want me to do so that you can help me?"

When Akira Hatake saw the White Snake Immortal like this, he knew that she was going to take the opportunity to negotiate terms with him and ask for benefits.

"It's simple. I want to know what the power is that brought you back to life."

That's it?

Hatake Akira didn't expect that the White Snake Immortal would make such a request. It was really too simple for Hatake Akira.

However, given the White Snake Immortal's sinister nature, it was impossible for Hatake Akira to agree to her request immediately, otherwise he didn't know how the White Snake Immortal would embarrass him afterwards.

"This……"

Hatake Akira pretended to think, and at the same time, he showed an embarrassment on his face, "It's not that I can't tell you, but... this is the foundation of my life, I'm worried..."

"Haha, little guy, you don't trust me?"

Seeing that there was hope, the White Snake Immortal's attitude immediately improved a lot, "Don't worry, as long as you tell me what that power is, or how you obtained this power, then in exchange, I can also help you solve the problem of the natural energy seed in your body."

"Let me think."

Although Hatake Akira was very happy, he still had to continue pretending.

After a long silence, Hatake Akira looked conflicted and hesitantly reached out for the huge sealing scroll on his back.

After fumbling for a few times, a "Protection of the Sage" appeared in Hatake Akira's hand.

It was still the same tight-fitting short shirt as before, and Hatake Akira placed it between him and the White Snake Immortal with a look of reluctance.

"Is this the reason why you came back to life?"

The White Snake Fairy looked at the short shirt not far away. The gold-inlaid pattern on it made her look greedy.

If I could obtain the ability or power to resurrect from the dead, then...

The idea was good in his mind, and the White Snake Immortal seemed a little impatient on the surface.

"It was thanks to this unknown artifact that I was able to be resurrected from the dead."

The reluctance in Hatake Akira's eyes almost overflowed, "There is no other divine weapon of this level in the world, and... I feel that if I just give it to you like this, I will be at a disadvantage."

"No loss, how could it be a loss!"

The White Snake Immortal took a step forward and wanted to reach out and pick up the resurrection armor that Qi Muming had placed on the ground.

"Don't move!"

Hatake Akira suddenly shouted, raised his hand and pressed on the resurrection armor, "You haven't helped me solve the problem yet, you can't touch this thing now!"

"Okay, okay, I won't move, and you don't have to get excited." The White Snake Immortal stopped walking, "Also, be gentle with the artifact, don't break it."

It was obvious that the White Snake Immortal had already regarded the Resurrection Armor as his own, and was somewhat blaming Hatake Akira for his "violent" behavior just now.

"It's not yours yet!"

Hatake Akira rolled his eyes and said, "You must first help me solve the problem in my body, and then teach me all the immortal arts and techniques passed down by your Longdi Cave, and then I will give this artifact to you!"

"This is not okay."

Although the White Snake Immortal was eager to obtain the Resurrection Armor, she was not blinded by her desire. "What if I solve your physical problems and teach you many magic skills of the Dragon Cave, and you suddenly regret it?"

"How could I regret it!"

Hatake Akira waved his hands repeatedly, "I am a very honest person, okay?"

"I don't believe you, just like you don't believe me."

The White Snake Immortal shook his head and then proposed a compromise, "How about this, I will solve the problem of the natural energy seed in your body first, and then you give me the artifact."

"When I get the artifact and verify its effect, I will teach you the many immortal arts passed down in Longdi Cave."

"Little guy, what do you think of my sincerity?"

"Of course you can, but I'm still worried that you won't seriously teach me the inherited magic arts of Longdi Cave afterwards."

"Haha, don't worry, I still have this bit of integrity."

"Then... let's get started!"

Hatake Akira didn't plan to drag it on any longer. Even if the White Snake Immortal changed his mind in the end, Hatake Akira would not lose anything.

And don't forget that Qi Muming can unilaterally take back the equipment given to others. Although the loss of gold coins is a little more, it is also within the acceptable range for Qi Muming.

"Then don't resist."

The White Snake Immortal gave Hatake Akira an instruction, and when the latter nodded, she started to take the next step.

Transformed into a horrifying half-human, half-snake appearance, the White Snake Immortal's neck stretched out again.

When her snake head approached Hatake Akira, the White Snake Immortal opened her mouth wide and bit Hatake Akira's neck.

At the moment of biting, the two fangs of the White Snake Immortal began to inject tremendous natural energy into Hatake Akira's body.

When the natural energy entered his body, Qi Mu Ming was no longer petrified like before. The natural energy pouring into his body was naturally absorbed by the natural energy seeds in Qi Mu Ming's body.

As the natural energy seed absorbed more and more natural energy, its size gradually grew, and finally it began to sprout!

“It…sprouts?”

Hatake Akira looked inside his body and discovered changes in the natural energy seeds at once, which caught him off guard.

Just when Hatake Akira was in doubt, the White Snake Immortal loosened his mouth and retracted his stretched neck.

"do not worry."

The White Snake Immortal, who had transformed back into an old woman, comforted Hatake Akira, "There is a reason why natural energy seeds are called seeds."

"Natural energy seeds can grow. When they grow to a certain point, this situation will naturally occur."

"Then after this happens, after I leave Longdi Cave, will it still absorb the life energy in my body on its own?" Hatake Akira went straight to the point.

"Of course not."

The White Snake Immortal shook his head. "After the natural energy seed germinates, it no longer needs the natural energy to maintain its survival and continued growth. Moreover, when the external natural energy is insufficient, it will no longer absorb the life energy in your body."

"Then the endurance problem when I use the magic..."

"You don't need to worry about this. There is no problem with battery life."

The White Snake Immortal licked his lips and said, "Do you know how much energy it took for the natural energy seeds in your body to germinate?"

"How much?" Hatake Akira was also very curious.

"Almost half of it!" The White Snake Immortal looked painful, "The natural energy I injected into you is enough for you to squander for half a year."

"Since I have paid such a high price, then..." He raised his hand and pointed at the resurrection armor that Hatake Akira was holding with his hand, "Shouldn't this treasure be given to me?"

"Give it, of course I have to give it!"

Akira Hatake is a very trustworthy person. As long as he is not treated unfairly, he will generally fulfill his promises.
