Chapter Thirty-Four Above the Fog
That night, Xie Mao slept deeply.
He couldn't sleep at first, but with the help of meditation, he fell into a deep sleep.
I opened my eyes at around 5 o'clock the next day. I was full of energy, and there was almost no strange feeling in my body, but I was still not that relaxed.
After washing, Xie Mao entered his puppet workshop.
The puppet whose appearance was just made last time is still on the table, next to it are two brand-new, almost completed puppets [Father] and [Mother].
During the time when Xie Mao was injured, Chiyo was not only responsible for the medical work, but also cooperated with Ebizo to recreate these two puppets with great symbolic significance.
Xie Mao did a little inspection and found that compared to his original two puppets, the newly created puppet had more mechanisms. This was obviously to adapt to Xie Mao's increasing strength.
In fact, the puppet is too complicated and will make me confused... Xie Mao withdrew his gaze and sat in front of his workbench.
He wanted to try to make a puppet of his own, preferably one that was different from [Father] and [Mother] and more defensive in nature.
Before Sequence 5, Xie Mao, who lacked the ability to fight head-on, would inevitably rely on puppets, so if he could become proficient in the art of making puppets, it would also be of great benefit to the art of manipulating puppets.
Moreover, the puppets you make yourself will be the most comfortable puppets.
What a win.
Most of the puppets in this workshop were made by "Scorpion" and Chiyo. Even though he inherited "Scorpion"'s memory, Xie Mao still didn't think that those puppets were made by himself.
There were plenty of parts, materials and mechanisms in the workshop. Xie Mao worked for more than two hours and only stopped when he felt hungry.
The puppet in his hand is not only more perfect in appearance, but also has one-third of the mechanisms added.
This can already be used against enemies, but it's just not powerful enough.
Gu~Xie Mao touched his belly, stood up and said to himself doubtfully: "Chiyo went out without saying hello to me?"
Xie Mao left the workshop and went down to the lobby on the first floor. He saw breakfast laid out on the table. When he got closer, he saw a piece of paper pressed under the plate.
Xie Mao picked up the paper and read:
"Grandma is very happy that you can be so focused on the puppet, but don't forget to finish breakfast. There will also be someone responsible for lunch and dinner afterwards."
Xie Mao raised his eyebrows slightly.
Are you worried that I will put my sorrow on the puppet and create a puppet that looks like Uncle Mori? Xie Mao shuddered and shook his head slightly. He was not that extreme, but he just felt that the ninja world today was a little cruel and needed to change.
But change requires power, and ideals without power are just empty talk.
Xie Mao finished his breakfast quickly and went to the backyard.
I have just been assassinated. There should be ninjas who will protect me these days... Xie Mao frowned slightly. Under such protective surveillance, he is not suitable for practicing something too basic.
However, this did not bother Xie Mao at all. He changed his mind and decided to practice those techniques that even "Scorpion" was not proficient in, especially those used to save lives.
For example, instant body technique.
Theoretically, all techniques that can achieve the effect of teleportation can be called teleportation techniques. This technique essentially consumes chakra to achieve the effect of high-speed movement. Therefore, there are many types of teleportation techniques. The simplest and most common teleportation technique is
The technique is only a D-level ninjutsu and is not difficult to learn. Advanced teleportation techniques involve changes in the nature of chakra, such as water teleportation, mist teleportation, sand teleportation, etc., which are more effective in avoiding damage.
More advanced teleportation techniques can often be linked to time and space, such as the Flying Thunder God Technique, Heavenly Hand Power, etc., which are similar to time and space transfer. They are so fast that they are almost unsolvable and difficult to target. They are similar to ordinary teleportation techniques.
Not a concept at all.
Talking back to the basic teleportation technique, compared with other genin and some chuunin, "Scorpion's" teleportation technique is definitely not bad, but there is really too much room for improvement in teleportation technique. It is normal to ponder and practice this technique.
.
Xie Mao first formed the seals slowly, and after accurately grasping the movement of chakra, he formed the seals faster, and his figure suddenly appeared at the other end of the backyard like a flash. The naked eyes of ordinary people could not capture this speed. In their eyes,
In his eyes, Xie Mao seemed to disappear and appear out of thin air.
If the instant body technique is used frequently, the pressure on the legs activated by concentrated chakra will be greater... Xie Mao stood on the spot and stretched his legs to make sure there was no strange feeling before performing the technique again.
brush!
The wind and sand rolled up spread out behind Xie Mao. Xie Mao teleported to the other side and took a breath. Compared with the original "Scorpion" in his memory, his speed was still a little slower, but he could catch up slowly.
.
In addition, the instant body technique cannot be used frequently. Even if there is chakra to maintain it, the body may still be broken down by the practice.
Xie Mao simply added invisibility, avatar, and clone techniques to his training program. Anyway, these were techniques that "Scorpion" didn't pay much attention to and didn't use very much in the past. Even if Xie Mao performed poorly, there would be no problem.
After practicing until noon, Xie Mao, who was very tired, heard some noise in the hall. He took the time to take a look and found that an unknown middle-aged woman was preparing lunch.
Xie Mao paid no attention to it. He continued to practice for more than half an hour, until the woman finished cooking and left.
After resting for a while, Xie Mao went back to the house and ate the steaming rice just out of the pot. He was quite satisfied with the meal. Apparently the new chef knew the taste of "Scorpion" very well.
The taste of Xie Mao and "Scorpion" are somewhat different, but fortunately the difference is not much, so it is not difficult to swallow.
After dinner, Xie Mao went into the workshop again and continued to perfect his puppet.
Xie Mao spent this day in the backyard and workshop.
The next day, Chiyo and Xie Mao completed the [Father] and [Mother] together. Xie Mao spent half a day getting familiar with the new mechanisms of the two puppets, and continued to practice various techniques for the other half, while thinking about what he learned from Kaku Rong.
[The Art of Silent Sound].
Kaoru Rong is a war orphan adopted by a mysterious organization. He is hiding in Sand Hidden Village. He only knows what he wants to do, but he doesn't know where he belongs.
Kaku Rong can be rated as a special jounin. The special thing lies in his concealment and assassination. If Xie Mao did not have the inspiration warning of the [diviner] at that time and evaded it immediately, then he would have done it in broad daylight.
He died miserably in his own home.
If it weren't for Kaku Rong's weak frontal combat effectiveness, lack of powerful ninjutsu, and the fact that he was quietly possessed by Qingtong, whom he didn't know about at all, Xie Mao felt that it would be difficult to survive the assassination.
It was really a walk around the gate of death.
At the end of the next day's practice, a series of techniques were listed in the skill column of the Xie Mao system. The proficiency was not necessarily high, but at least they could be used.
If you want to be truly proficient in various techniques, practice alone is definitely not enough. Often, you can only become proficient by honing yourself in real battles.
On the third day, Xie Mao was ready to face Fenfu, but before that, he had to do a ritual.
On the day he was assassinated, he lay in the hospital and dreamed of being above the gray fog. From this, Xie Mao had some speculations, doubting that he could truly enter above the gray fog through the ritual.
Yesterday, he tested Chiyo with words and confirmed that there were indeed ninjas around him monitoring and protecting him, but his privacy would not be touched.
With this premise, Xie Mao started preparing for the ceremony without hesitation.
There should be no spiritual world in this world, let alone the gray fog above the spiritual world. Only through a ceremony can we confirm whether the system will transplant the "Origin Castle"... Xie Mao took out the 4 pieces of food left from breakfast.
, respectively two loaves of bread, a piece of pastry, and half a bowl of porridge.
Placing the four pieces of food in the four corners of the room, Xie Mao stood in the center of the room, took two deep breaths, and then stepped counterclockwise with concentration to walk out of a square.
Taking the first step, he sincerely recited:
"Fusheng Xuanhuang Immortal Lord."
Before taking the second step, he silently said:
"Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianjun."
In the third step, he gently inhaled and recited silently:
"The God of Fortune and Prosperity Xuanhuang."
In the fourth step, Xie Mao breathlessly whispered:
"Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun."
After completing the entire ceremony, Xie Mao closed his eyes nervously, and in the darkness, he quietly began to wait.
Although the specific results are not known yet, his inspiration seems to have a good omen.
After a short wait, the darkness in front of him was submerged by the crimson stained with light. Xie Maodun felt that his whole body was tight and stiff, and his head felt a sharp pain. However, all this faded quickly, and his body relaxed again, and the pain in his head
The severe pain subsided quickly.
The surroundings became quiet and quiet, with a sense of erratic atmosphere. Xie Mao exhaled a breath and slowly opened his eyes, and the boundless gray fog came into his eyes.
Success!? Xie Mao looked at the gray fog flowing like water in surprise, dotted with dark red "stars". Some of these stars were very big, some were as small as dust, or were hidden deep in the gray fog, or
Attached to the surface.
These crimson stars... I remember they are used to pull people into the gray fog, but few people in this world have enough high-level objects as a medium, so why are there so many crimson stars... Xie Mao hesitantly stretched out his hand,
Before he was about to touch the nearest bright star, his hand paused for a few seconds. After some consideration, he touched the surface of the star.
Pieces of water streaks immediately gushed out from his body, exploding after touching the "dark red", exploding into a dreamy firework that shone brightly.
Chapter completed!
