The information it provided far exceeded that of the other senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of this, if a ninja's vision was taken away, their combat effectiveness would plummet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Previously, when Seimei cast this technique, it could only affect a single target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as his target was within his field of vision and made eye contact with him at the moment the jutsu was activated…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could channel the power of genjutsu through his eyes, projecting it onto multiple enemies at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, after reaching its perfected state, this technique had evolved from a single-target attack into one that could now affect both single and multiple enemies alike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that were the only improvement, Seimei might have been pleased, but he wouldn't have paid it too much attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The real game-changer was this:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even when affecting multiple people, the genjutsu's effectiveness did not weaken significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And that… was what truly caught Seimei's interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, even the Uchiha clan, wielders of the Sharingan, had difficulty escaping this jutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let alone anyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this in mind, it was clear—this technique had just become one of his ultimate trump cards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, such a transformation didn't come without a price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The most obvious drawback was that casting the technique on multiple people simultaneously greatly increased both chakra consumption and mental strain on the user.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for Seimei, this wasn't much of a problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, his chakra reserves were already nearing 400,000 points—a minor energy drain like this wasn't even worth worrying about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the mental strain…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei glanced at the evolution progress of his Sharingan, which was approaching its critical point, and felt completely unfazed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once his Mangekyō Sharingan evolved into the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, his mental strength would experience a significant boost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that point, handling additional strain would be effortless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even now, with his 23 points in Spirit, he could control up to ten elite jonin simultaneously without issue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So really, there was nothing to be concerned about.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shaking his head, Seimei put the matter aside. Instead, he focused on an even more pressing question:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How should he allocate the 250,000 chakra points he was now saving daily?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze swept across the status panel, moving from skill to skill, before settling on one—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nirvana Temple Jutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This jutsu had started at the same level as Bringer-of-Darkness Technique, but due to less chakra investment over time, it had only reached Level 8, with barely 40% progress toward Level 9.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, it still needed nearly 30,000 proficiency points to reach Level 9 (0\u002F0), just like Bringer-of-Darkness Technique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At his current rate, it would take roughly twenty more days to achieve that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Seimei wasn't willing to wait that long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he decided—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would invest all 250,000 newly freed chakra points into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this change, his daily chakra intake would increase from 140,000 points to 390,000 points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he used up all that chakra, his daily proficiency gain would jump from 1,370 points to 3,820 points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that rate, it would take less than eight days for Nirvana Temple Jutsu to reach its perfected state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Satisfied with his calculations, Seimei nodded to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He then closed his status panel, not wanting to waste any more time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once again, he raised both hands, forming the Ram hand seal—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And cast Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Poof!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a burst of chakra-infused smoke, dozens of identical clones appeared in the training area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, however, when assigning training tasks, Seimei specifically prioritized the Nirvana Temple Jutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The chakra allocation for this technique more than doubled, meaning his old training regimen was no longer sufficient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed to make adjustments.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was just the beginning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next few training cycles, he planned to continuously fine-tune the number of clones working on Nirvana Temple Jutsu, based on their efficiency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, he would find the perfect balance between training goals and chakra expenditure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, the uneven chakra distribution meant that by mid-afternoon, several skills would finish their daily training goals, freeing up more clones to focus on Nirvana Temple Jutsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This would allow him to gradually reduce the number of clones working on it at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, he'd have to account for energy wastage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shaking his head, Seimei stopped overthinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once his clones dispersed to begin training, he immediately resumed his own practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>### Two Days Later…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On a remote island, atop a familiar giant boulder…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Seimei once again cast Reflection Mind Jutsu, stimulating his mental energy to produce special chakra, his Sharingan evolution progress suddenly reached completion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sense of perfection filled his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes snapped open, gleaming with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly opened his status panel and looked at his Sharingan's progress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he had suspected—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After more than half a month of focused training, his Mangekyō Sharingan evolution had finally reached its critical point—(50,000\u002F50,000)!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Seimei felt an overwhelming urge to immediately begin the evolution into the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after a brief internal struggle… he forced himself to hold back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though evolving now wouldn't be too risky, it was still not entirely without danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The problem was…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Spirit attribute was already significantly higher than his Physique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If his mental power increased even further without a corresponding boost in physical endurance, he could face severe consequences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the worst case…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could end up with a genetic disorder—just like Uchiha Itachi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was not an outcome Seimei wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, for now, he chose patience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body transformation was only a few days away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn't worth the risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that thought, Seimei gradually calmed down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The time would come soon enough.\u003C\u002Fp>",1135,"2026-06-06T03:31:01.191Z",1,"novelbin.me","19b0bf3e6e4f644d56e10729d738fc1b915932b587e482064f22cafa2ce83c6e","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-757","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-755",1097,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrind-is-my-ninja-way-cover.jpg"]
