Chapter 132

Shi Yuan didn't know her thoughts, and even if he did, he likely wouldn't care.

He followed his own plan and threw himself back into cultivation.

Before starting the next stage of the experiment, he needed to improve his strength, thoroughly digest the gains of this period, and completely transform them into his own strength.

In the following time, the ninja world became extremely chaotic.

In the Mist Ninja Village, Mei Terumi became the Fifth Mizukage without any surprise, immediately implemented a policy of closing the country, refused to communicate with the outside world, silently improved her own strength, and let the Mist Ninja Village recuperate.

In Konoha Village, Jiraiya waited for a long time but couldn't wait for Tsunade to return, eventually becoming the Fifth Hokage.

And although the Rock Ninja Village and Cloud Ninja Village were shocked by Shi Yuan and the First Hokage who appeared in the intelligence, they didn't dare to act rashly.

But they secretly sent people to change their identities to test Konoha's reality.

Instantly, the flames of war began to burn at the border of the Land of Fire.

In order not to let people see Konoha's weakness, Jiraiya could only keep sending strong people to the battlefield.

He personally went to the Uchiha clan to talk to Itachi and the elders, and reached a deal with the Uchiha clan.

Itachi took the initiative to hand over part of the rights of the Military Police Force, and even gave up some of the spots for the Military Police Force to other clans in Konoha.

In exchange, the Uchiha also gained spots in the Anbu and could form an Anbu squad!

At the same time, they also gained some other rights and benefits!

After the deal was completed, the Uchiha clan was immediately sent to the battlefield, and Itachi even participated in the war personally!

Itachi, who had awakened the Mangekyo, participating in the war eased the tension in Konoha's top combat power to a certain extent.

But this also made the front-line battlefield even more tragic.

And after repeated tests, the Rock Ninja Village and Cloud Ninja Village confirmed that Konoha didn't have the so-called resurrected First Hokage and Shi Yuan, and finally stopped worrying, starting to fight Konoha openly.

The Sand Ninja Village formed a war alliance with Konoha, and coupled with the blood feud with the Rock Ninja Village, it was also dragged into the war not long after, fighting fiercely with the Rock Ninja Village at the border.

Although the major ninja villages didn't want to repeat the mistakes of the Third Great Ninja War and had been controlling the scale and intensity of the war.

But this also made the timeline of this small-scale war exceptionally long.

Such a war also made it difficult for Konoha to recover, and it could only fight wearily.

Throughout the war, the Mist Ninja Village stayed out of it.

Time passed slowly.

Two years later.

In the Land of Water, in a remote mountain forest.

This was the base rebuilt by Orochimaru!

Shi Yuan was cultivating in the deepest part of the base, his temperament becoming more and more ethereal.

"Two years, my Sage Body is about one-fourth complete."

Shi Yuan felt the terrifying energy in his body and couldn't help but be shocked.

His current chakra volume had definitely surpassed that of the First Hokage.

If he were to fight the First Hokage again, he wouldn't need any extra means to win!

And it would be an overwhelming victory!

Shi Yuan had absolute confidence in this.

Because what had grown in these two years was not just the Sage Body cultivation method, but also various secret techniques!

In two years, he had cultivated the nature transformation and shape transformation of the five chakra attributes—Wind, Fire, Lightning, Water, and Earth—to the limit, and there was no room for improvement at all.

Shi Yuan even dared to say that his five chakra nature transformations and shape transformations had reached the limit of cultivation, and also the limit of the ninja world, not his current limit!

He could perform ninjutsu of various attributes without hand seals and could easily manipulate chakra to perform any shape transformation.

More importantly, his Yin-Yang Release had also reached the limit!

Although there was still room for improvement, he believed that his Yin-Yang Release was top-tier even in the history of the ninja world.

Besides that, he had also been cultivating various secret techniques.

Whether it was Mangekyo ocular techniques, various Kekkei Genkai, or various secret techniques, forbidden jutsus, and even the Hydrification Technique, he had already mastered them!

Even the Eight Inner Gates, he could already open up to the Fifth Gate!

The current Shi Yuan, let alone the First Hokage, even a Six Paths level, he dared to fight!

"The cultivation of the seven-attribute chakra is finally complete. Next, it's time to take the final step!"

"Truth-Seeking Balls!"

A flash of brilliance passed through Shi Yuan's eyes.

Even he couldn't help but feel somewhat nervous at this moment.

After all, Truth-Seeking Balls were the symbol of the Six Paths level!

Once successful, it meant he had become Six Paths level.

Shi Yuan took a deep breath, and the principle of the Truth-Seeking Balls flashed through his mind.

The so-called Truth-Seeking Balls are high-density chakra created using Yin-Yang Release to form a body, while adding seven types of chakra.

In short, Truth-Seeking Balls are chakra!

And what he had to do now was to condense his own Truth-Seeking Balls.

Hum—

A subtle and profound ripple arose.

A black sphere appeared in Shi Yuan's hand.

This was the body of the Truth-Seeking Ball he created using Yin-Yang Release.

Subsequently, terrifying chakra erupted from Shi Yuan's body.

Boom!!!

A massive amount of chakra was condensed by him into various attributes and then frantically poured into the black sphere.

The special sphere created by Yin-Yang Release was unimaginably solid.

Chakra comparable to the Tailed Beast Ball level was poured in time and time again—one Water Release, one Fire Release, one Lightning Release...

Chakra of seven attributes, each in an amount comparable to a Tailed Beast Ball, was poured into the black sphere.

Then once, twice, three times!

After the twenty-first Yang Release chakra comparable to a Tailed Beast Ball was poured in.

A qualitative change occurred!

Hum—

The black sphere trembled slightly, and the massive amount of chakra inside disappeared completely in an instant!

But Shi Yuan was not panicked; instead, he smiled.

"I succeeded! I condensed the Truth-Seeking Ball! Hahahaha!"

Shi Yuan laughed heartily.

It was worth his two years of effort; he finally achieved his goal.

Just then.

[Itachi have had an epiphany, and Itachi have developed the secret technique: Truth-Seeking Ball Cultivation Method.]

[Itachi have mastered the Truth-Seeking Ball!]

[Truth-Seeking Ball Cultivation Method: After cultivating the nature transformation and shape transformation of seven types of chakra according to the method to meet the requirements, Itachi can manufacture Truth-Seeking Balls yourself.]

This was the shortest information ever!

After Shi Yuan digested it, the smile on his face became even happier.

This was a self-manufactured Truth-Seeking Ball, not like Naruto's, which was gone once used!

Shi Yuan looked at the black sphere in his hand, unable to hold back. His figure flashed and disappeared from the spot, appearing at the seaside.

When he was cultivating before, he often experimented with the secret techniques he had just mastered at this location.

Not far away, there was a deserted island with an area of more than ten square kilometers, and there was no one on it.

Shi Yuan waved his hand gently.

Whoosh!

The Truth-Seeking Ball slammed into the island like lightning.

Instantly.

Rumble rumble!
