Chapter 755: Becoming the New Sage Technique Founder! (First Update)
Chapter 755: Becoming the New Sage Technique Founder! (First Update)
Five months passed, and Moonlight's Yin Chakra Nature Transformation reached the Perfect Rank first, becoming his fifth Perfect Rank Chakra Nature Transformation.
At the same time, the Yin Chakra Nature Transformation was also the first Perfect Rank Nature Transformation that was not directly rewarded by the system.
However, according to Moonlight's perception, there wasn't much difference between the two; it was just that the latter would be slightly more effortless to use in the initial stages.
Even with the Perfect Rank Chakra Nature Transformations directly rewarded by the system, Moonlight had the complete training memories and insights, but he needed some time to process them.
Since Moonlight had also spent a lot of effort on Breath Techniques and because Breath Techniques had a broader applicability, his Breath Techniques also yielded significant results.
Moonlight, based on Balanced Breath, mixed Yang Breath and Flame Breath within it, thus creating an entirely new Flame Breath.
No, this Breath Technique could no longer be called Flame Breath, as to activate this new Breath Technique, one would need not only a profound level of Breath Technique mastery but also a high level of Yang Transformation.
Besides having a stronger body enhancement ability, the new Breath Technique also had a very special effect.
The new Breath Technique, when in Breath Technique Chakra Mode, merged Fire Attribute and Yang Attribute Chakra, thus creating a stronger Chakra.
It appeared similar to Fire Attribute Chakra, but its power was much greater.
Obviously, this was extremely close to Moonlight's envisioned Sun Breath.
The reason it was considered close but not Sun Breath was that Moonlight's direction of developing Breath Techniques had changed significantly since he trained in Sage Mode.
What he needed now was not an ordinary Breath Technique but a Sage Technique Breath!
Over these years, Moonlight had been developing Sun Breath towards the Sage Technique Breath.
And the current new Breath, lacking the crucial step of Sage Technique Breath, was still the guiding technique of Sage Mode, a secret technique used to guide the perception of natural energy.
Without a fully compatible guiding technique for the Breath Technique, the Sage Technique would not be able to establish its own system.
Fortunately, as Moonlight's proficiency in Sage Mode continued to increase, he was very close to solving the ultimate problem.
Three more months passed, and during these three months, Moonlight did not teach any classes.
Reaching the system's high standard for course completion was not easy, and without sufficient preparation, it would be very demanding and might hinder the progress of other trainings.
During these three months, Moonlight dedicated himself to researching Breath Techniques and training in Sage Mode.
Every week, he would go to Sage Mountain for two days of training, utilizing the Insight Skill to improve his Sage Mode training efficiency.
A new week arrived.
Looking at the updated Insight Skill on the panel, this time, Moonlight did not go to Sage Mountain to seek advice from the Great Toad Sage but instead went to his study.
At this moment, his proficiency in Sage Mode had reached over fourteen thousand nine hundred points, just a step away from breaking through the Perfect Rank.
Moonlight believed that the moment of breaking through the Perfect Rank was crucial and might help him develop the Sage Technique Breath.
After arriving at his study, Moonlight gathered all his materials on Sage Mode and Breath Techniques and laid them out in the room.
Then, Moonlight used the Insight Skill on himself and created numerous Shadow Clones with Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu to study the materials together.
The Shadow Clones could not enjoy the benefits of the Insight Skill's enhancement, but they could transmit a large amount of information and thoughts to Moonlight's brain in an instant upon their dissolution.
"Using Breath Techniques to absorb external abilities and merge with Chakra to produce stronger Chakra..."
"The cause of natural energy erosion, the subdivision of natural energy..."
"The balance of motion and stillness in Sage Mode, the stability of merging with nature..."
Moonlight's Shadow Clones filled the room and the hallway, each holding several documents and deep in thought.
This peculiar scene lasted for forty-six hours.
During this time, Moonlight did not eat, rest, or do anything else; he only read and thought.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
At the forty-sixth hour, the Shadow Clones training in Sage Mode began to dissolve, and a vast amount of Sage Technique insights and understandings appeared in Moonlight's mind.
With the support of the Insight Skill, Moonlight's thoughts became incredibly clear, and he swiftly integrated his thoughts and understandings.
If Moonlight had checked the system panel at this moment, he would have discovered that his Sage Mode proficiency was rapidly changing.
Fourteen thousand nine hundred fifty.
Fourteen thousand nine hundred fifty-nine.
Fourteen thousand nine hundred sixty-nine.
...
When only one hour of the Insight state remained, Moonlight's proficiency, which had reached fourteen thousand nine hundred ninety-nine, in Sage Mode, jumped again.
【Skill: Sage Technique (Perfect Rank)...】
In the moment of breaking through the Perfect Rank, a vast amount of insights into Sage Techniques suddenly appeared in Moonlight's mind, giving him a clearer understanding of the nature of Sage Techniques.
Bang, bang, bang!
At this moment, the shadow clones studying the Breath Technique also released themselves, and a large amount of insights into the Breath Technique entered Moonlight's mind.
Moonlight connected the two bodies of knowledge and gradually gained a new understanding of the Breath Technique Sage Technique.
Finally, with only ten minutes left for the Insight Skill, Moonlight exhaled a white breath and smiled lightly as he looked at the system panel.
【Skill: Breath Stream Sage Technique...】
Success!
The Sage Breath Technique was complete! Now, he had not only solved the problem of the guiding technique but had also established the basic framework of the Breath Stream Sage Technique.
"The Breath Stream Sage Technique is complete. It's time to teach my disciples the Sage Techniques."
Moonlight thought to himself.
The traditional Sage Mode had a high learning threshold and was also very dangerous, so Moonlight had never allowed his disciples to go to Sage Mountain to learn Sage Techniques.
The Breath Stream Sage Technique that Moonlight developed had a significant difference in threshold compared to the traditional Sage Mode.
The Breath Stream Sage Technique did not require as high a Chakra amount as the Sage Mode of the Three Great Holy Lands.
However, correspondingly, the Breath Stream Sage Technique had a certain threshold for the Breath Technique.
One must cultivate an advanced Breath Technique to the Proficiency Rank before they can begin training.
Overall, the threshold was not much different.
Although Moonlight's disciples had all cultivated the Breath Technique to the Proficiency Rank and had a relatively high proficiency, this did not mean that the advanced Breath Technique was easy to cultivate.
There were many reasons for this result.
Firstly, Moonlight was the one who taught Dai Tu and the others, and Moonlight's status in the Breath Technique was comparable to the founder of the Three Great Holy Lands. Moreover, he had a series of teaching skills, making him an enhanced version of the founder.
Secondly, Dai Tu and the others were not ordinary ninjas; they had strong potential.
For ordinary people, cultivating the Breath Technique to the Proficiency Rank was very difficult, even for advanced Breath Techniques. It was a level that most ninjas in the Ninja World could not reach.
Of course, for Dai Tu and the others who had already reached the Proficiency Rank in the Breath Technique, the Breath Stream Sage Technique was a pure blessing for Sage Techniques.
Moonlight spent a month further perfecting the system and then gathered his disciples, except for Might Gai, in Six Paths City.
For Hinata and Yahiko, Moonlight only planned to let them learn to sense natural energy.
Their strength was not yet sufficient to master the complete Breath Stream Sage Technique.
Moonlight only called them together because achieving the first step could somewhat enhance the power of their current Breath Technique, and it would be more convenient for them to learn Sage Techniques in the future.
As for Might Gai, the Eight Gates Seal and Sage Techniques were naturally conflicting. Unless Might Gai did not open the latter gates of the Eight Gates Seal in the future, mastering the Breath Stream Sage Technique would be useless for him.
At this stage, Might Gai did not need to add other means; he only needed to systematically enhance his physique to improve his overall strength.
"Sage Technique!"
Dai Tu on the training ground was full of excitement.
After mastering the Sage Technique, he could barely be considered a small sage.
He had taken another big step towards becoming a sage like Moonlight.
"Sensing and absorbing natural energy is the first step of Sage Techniques, and it is also the most important step, the foundation of Sage Techniques."
Moonlight tapped Dai Tu's head, calming him down, and began to explain Sage Techniques to his disciples.
"Sensing natural energy is sensing nature. Try to integrate your breath with nature, feel the earth and sky, and sense the natural energy flowing in nature."
Moonlight calmly explained the various points of the first step of cultivation in the Breath Stream Sage Technique.
As this step was about laying the foundation, Moonlight was not in a hurry. He carefully explained for nearly three hours before letting his disciples begin their cultivation.
On the first day, none of the disciples, including Kakashi, who had mastered the Transparent World, could sense natural energy.
"It seems that I do have a decent talent for Sage Techniques."
Moonlight thought to himself.
He had once believed that his rapid cultivation of Sage Techniques was largely due to the Transparent World, but now he realized that his innate talent for Sage Techniques was also significant.
On the second day, no one could sense natural energy.
On the third day, things changed. In the afternoon of the third day, Kakashi was the first to sense natural energy.
"Damn, am I going to be surpassed by Kakashi?"
Dai Tu felt a sense of crisis.
Although he possessed two powerful time-space ninjutsu, Kakashi had also mastered the Boundless Technique, an equally powerful time-space ability.
If Kakashi could take the lead in Sage Techniques, there might be a chance to catch up to him in terms of strength.
On the seventh day, Nagato, who had been training with the Shadow Clone Training Method, became the second disciple to sense the natural energy.
This further increased Daito's sense of crisis. Nagato was already this strong, and if he mastered Sage Techniques, Daito would have no hope of surpassing him.
Finally, on the fourteenth day of Moonlight's teachings on Sage Techniques, Daito and Shizui both sensed the natural energy and were ready for the next step in their training.
"Absorb the mastered Chakra into your body using your breath, and then control the natural energy to merge with the Chakra within your body."
Moonlight explained the advanced techniques to Daito and Shizui.
The Breath Stream Sage Technique did not require immobility; as long as the Breath Technique was in use, natural energy could be absorbed.
However, the efficiency of letting the breath absorb energy during combat was undoubtedly inferior to focusing entirely on absorbing natural energy while remaining still. Therefore, there was still a time limit, but it was longer than the duration of the Sage Mode of Sage Mountain.
Yahiko and Hinata progressed slowly; Yahiko's breathing technique was not as proficient, while Hinata struggled with her Chakra control.
Hinata only sensed the natural energy on the thirty-second day, and Yahiko took even longer, sensing it on the thirty-eighth day.
Fortunately, they didn't need to learn further; sensing the natural energy was already a significant achievement.
As for the other disciples, Kakashi, who had made the most progress, had already entered the Lightning Breath Sage Mode at this point, and he did so perfectly, without any abnormalities.
The Breath Sage Mode did not cause any physical changes, not even a hint of a mask on their faces. Instead, their bodies emitted a faint light corresponding to their Breath Technique; for example, Flame Breath was orange-red, Lightning Breath was blue, and Yang Breath was orange.
Any physical changes, even just the appearance of a mask, indicated imperfect control over the natural energy, signifying an incomplete Sage Mode.
Nagato focused on refining his control over the natural energy, laying the foundation for mastering the perfect Sage Mode.
Daito and Shizui, however, struggled to keep up with Nagato and Kakashi.
Due to the varying progress of his disciples, Moonlight used Shadow Clones to teach them, while his main body moved between them, providing guidance.
For Kakashi, who had already entered the Lightning Breath Sage Mode, Moonlight began combat training to help him become accustomed to using Sage Mode in battle.
"Once you become more proficient, try entering the Breath Chakra Mode while in Sage Mode. This is a crucial skill in Breath Stream Sage Techniques."
Moonlight instructed Kakashi.
Since it was a Breath Stream Sage Technique, the original abilities of the Breath Technique would undoubtedly be usable.
Moonlight had tested this himself.
Due to their shared origin, using the Breath Sage Technique and the Breath Chakra Mode simultaneously was more effective than his previous attempts at Sage Mountain. Using Sage Techniques corresponding to their Chakra attributes would result in even greater power.
Kakashi nodded thoughtfully.
Moonlight's disciples all had a solid foundation in Breath Techniques. When Nagato and Daito mastered their Sage Modes, they too did so perfectly, without masks or any physical changes.
After this stage, Moonlight no longer provided centralized teachings. Instead, he allowed his disciples to seek him out with any questions they had.
Most of the time, the disciples trained independently.
Having reached this stage, they had grasped the basics of Sage Mode, and further practice was safe.
During this period, Moonlight also wrote some lesson plans.
Soon, Moonlight resumed his lectures, continuing to improve his disciples' Chakra Nature Transformations through this method.
This time, Moonlight focused solely on Chakra Nature Transformations, not teaching Breath Techniques.
With the completion of the Breath Stream Sage Technique and the success of Sun Breath, he had no immediate need to research Breath Techniques further.
With Moonlight's targeted guidance and the boost from his Immortal Body, his Yang Chakra Nature Transformation quickly broke through to the Perfect Rank.
Thus, among the seven Chakra Nature Transformations, only the Earth Chakra Nature Transformation remained at the Proficient Rank.
"It's time to pay a visit to the Tailed Beasts."
Moonlight glanced at his system panel and swiftly headed towards Konoha.
His Earth Chakra Nature Transformation was approaching the Perfect Rank, and with a few Earth-focused sessions in Stone Hidden Village, breaking through was inevitable.
However, based on Uchiha Sasuke's Chakra, Moonlight estimated the Six Paths Sage's Chakra and felt that he needed a little help from the Tailed Beasts to create the Sage Stone.
