What truly interested him was the upcoming level-up of Universal Sealing Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This skill's advancement wasn't just about enhancing the seals on both himself and Chōmei, the Seven-Tails—it was also critical to his future training plans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, he was still spending over four hours daily nurturing his Byakugan, which took too much time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To prevent it from interfering with his other training, he had been pushing himself to the limit, cutting down on rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, he could endure it, relying on the immense mental resilience granted by his 26 points in Spirit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the long run? Definitely not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Training required balance. If he stayed under constant tension, sooner or later, he would break.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Increasing rest and relaxation wasn't an option either. If he did that, his training schedule would be meaningless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, leveling up Universal Sealing Abyss and upgrading his seals was the real solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And finally, the time had come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Next Day\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After once again releasing his Multi-Shadow Clone Jutsu and absorbing the memories and experiences of all his clones from the past hour—converting them into skill proficiency—his Universal Sealing Abyss finally leveled up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On top of a massive boulder, Seimei sat with his eyes closed, carefully organizing the flood of new insights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While his Universal Sealing Abyss had yet to reach its S-rank peak—LV10 (0\u002F0)—the jump from LV8 to LV9 was a fundamental transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a significant breakthrough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed, second by second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A full fifteen minutes later, Seimei finally opened his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sharp gleam flashed in his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached for the metal sphere beside him—the one containing Chōmei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a slight injection of chakra, he activated the seal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, a dense array of intricate sealing formations emerged across the metal sphere, glowing faintly as if they had come to life, exuding an almost intelligent energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Observing these seals, Seimei nodded occasionally… then shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the upgrade, he had only noticed minor flaws in the seal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now? They weren't just flaws—they were glaring vulnerabilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's right. Vulnerabilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike traditional sealing techniques, which had been refined over multiple generations, Universal Sealing Abyss was Seimei's own creation, a fusion of four different sealing arts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he had mastered each of them to perfection, their core principles and techniques remained distinct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By integrating them, he had seemingly extracted their strengths and eliminated their weaknesses, forming a seamless connection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet in reality, those differences still existed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To ordinary shinobi, these subtle inconsistencies wouldn't even register.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for experts proficient in sealing jutsu, they would be glaring weaknesses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was unacceptable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seimei refused to allow any vulnerabilities in his techniques. None.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past, even if he had noticed this issue, there would have been nothing he could do about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his newfound LV9 insights into Universal Sealing Abyss, he could completely eliminate these flaws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once done, this wouldn't be a mere fusion of four different sealing techniques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would become an entirely new sealing jutsu, complete and self-contained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if a sealing master familiar with Sealed Object Formation, Self-Imposed Curse Seal, Guardian Seal, or Four Symbols Seal examined it, they would only recognize faint traces of familiarity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And if Seimei pushed it further to LV10, completely shattering its original limits, there wouldn't even be a trace of those influences left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that point, breaking the seal would be impossible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, that step would take more time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, his priority was upgrading the seals on both himself and the metal sphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that decision made, Seimei wasted no time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He formed a seal and dispelled the current Universal Sealing Abyss on the metal sphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why not start with his own seal first?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, his interdimensional space still contained a massive reserve of chakra—leftover from four days ago, when he returned to the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he removed his seal first, that chakra would be wasted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he would first enhance the seal on Chōmei, injecting all that chakra into it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only afterward would he update his own seal and use Chakra Absorption Jutsu to reclaim his chakra.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the process, some energy would inevitably be lost, but it wouldn't be a significant amount.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Certainly far better than losing it all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Given the choice, the decision was obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>HSSSSS—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A strange, insect-like screech echoed suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment the seal was undone, Chōmei burst free, appearing before Seimei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although its sudden release was unexpected, the Seven-Tails reacted instantly—this time, it was prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without even bothering to search for Seimei's location, or open its eyes, Chōmei immediately flapped its wings and shot into the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, it was being cautious of Seimei's Mangekyō Sharingan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in doing so, it had indeed given itself a small window of opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But only a small one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before it could even leave the island, a massive figure appeared in its path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing the presence, Chōmei's eyes finally snapped open.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What it saw next was a colossal hand, reaching directly for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And behind that hand...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A towering, godlike giant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>patreon:belamy20\u003C\u002Fp>",1078,"2026-06-06T03:31:01.191Z",1,"novelbin.me","682504843808c4ba9a4410360716d7a96d46c6f2992da000033ade14f9cc0b18","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-769","grind-is-my-ninja-way-chapter-767",1097,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgrind-is-my-ninja-way-cover.jpg"]
