Chapter 77

Using Yin-Yang Release together with a single-element secret technique was an entirely different level.

And in his memory, there was only one such bloodline limit.

The Rinnegan!

"No wonder Ghost Lantern Kasumi was able to match the Second Tsuchikage, who possessed the Bloodline Elimination — his Water Element secret technique is no simple matter either."

Ishihara sighed inwardly, then began studying it even more carefully.

Orochimaru's many records also mentioned Yin-Yang Release, but the research wasn't very deep.

So this time, Ishihara had to dig out the secrets of Yin-Yang Release himself.

With experiment after experiment, more and more secrets of the Water Element secret technique were uncovered.

The amount of Yin-Yang Release used during the Water Element secret technique wasn't large, but the role it played was absolutely vital.

In the process, he also faintly detected traces of Yin-Yang Release.

The sparks of inspiration in his mind began to collide — and explode!

【You have observed the transformation process of the Water Element secret technique, perceived the crucial role of Yin-Yang Release within it, and created Secret Technique: Elemental Transformation Cultivation Method!】

【Elemental Transformation Cultivation Method: Once mastered, allows the body to transform into the elemental form of a certain chakra nature or bloodline limit!】

Hah…

Ishihara exhaled and returned to his own body.

The Life Chain drained far too much chakra, leaving him utterly exhausted.

But looking at the harvest, he was immediately satisfied.

A flood of information poured into his mind, instantly making the secrets of elemental transformation clear to him.

"It looks like elemental transformation training, but the real focus is on the cultivation of chakra's nature transformation and form transformation — and a method for cultivating Yin-Yang Release!"

"And the secret of elemental transformation lies in the fusion ratio of the two chakras and the timing!"

A glint flashed through Ishihara's eyes, his heart surging with excitement.

He hadn't expected that even a cultivation method for Yin-Yang Release would appear.

Although this was only incidental, the Yin-Yang Release one could cultivate from it wouldn't be very strong either.

But at least it gave him a direction! A direction for cultivating Yin-Yang Release!

More important than anything else!

However, looking at the Elemental Transformation Cultivation Method, Ishihara shook his head.

Setting everything else aside, just the requirements for chakra's nature transformation and form transformation — the number of people in the shinobi world who could meet them was probably extremely small, perhaps only in single digits.

Add the threshold of Yin-Yang Release on top of that — besides him, was there really anyone in the shinobi world who could cultivate this secret technique?

One had to remember, this was equivalent to creating the Ghost Lantern clan's bloodline limit from scratch and developing it to a certain degree.

Just look at how many people in the Ghost Lantern clan have truly mastered the Water Element secret technique, and you'll understand the difficulty.

Probably harder than ascending to heaven!

"Hope Terumi Mei won't be disappointed when she gets the secret technique."

Ishihara sighed inwardly, not very optimistic about Terumi Mei taking this path.

……

"The secret technique is complete?"

Terumi Mei stared at Ishihara in excitement.

The moment she got the news, she had rushed over without stopping.

As for the location here, there was no hiding it from Obito.

"Take a look."

Ishihara tossed the scroll to Terumi Mei.

Terumi Mei excitedly opened the scroll — and was instantly dumbfounded.

"The demands on Water Release chakra are way too high, and it even involves Yin-Yang Release?!"

Ishihara nodded. "So I'm afraid you won't be able to learn this secret technique."

But Terumi Mei wasn't disappointed — instead, she said excitedly:

"That's what makes it interesting! As long as there's a method, I believe that one day I'll succeed!"

Ishihara was a little surprised, but said nothing.

He hadn't given her the Sage Body Cultivation Method yet — the timing just wasn't right.

Once she mastered the Sage Body Cultivation Method, she wouldn't have to worry about time.

He had originally thought Terumi Mei would leave after getting the secret technique, but unexpectedly she still hadn't gone.

"Something else?"

Ishihara asked, somewhat surprised.

"I want to borrow your Byakugan!"
