Chapter 230: Mere Impurities, Watch Me Refine Them in an Instant

As evening approached, the orange sunset had already transformed into a cold, clear full moon, and strands of bright moonlight spilled down, shrouding the floating island where the Otsutsuki clan had resided for generations in a mysterious veil.

"Ah~~ K-meow-gee~"

Just at this moment of absolute silence, a strange sound emanated from the luxurious palace of Otsutsuki Biraku. The captivating gasps caused the onlookers passing by to let their imaginations run wild, conjuring up a tense and thrilling mid-gate sniper duel.

Following the sound into the palace, one could see the door to Otsutsuki Biraku's inner chamber tightly shut. A dutiful black puppet stood before the door, its yellow eyes devoid of sorrow or joy; it had just received orders from its master, and from that moment on, no one was allowed to enter.

Unlike the silence outside, the atmosphere within the room was incredibly sultry. Two rapid sets of breathing echoed each other, stirring up ripples of pink, signaling the deadlock of their battle.

"Hoo-hoo~~ Take a deep breath, don't be afraid."

Uchiha Gin was drenched in sweat, his loose bathrobe pulled askew, revealing his robust chest muscles. His signature curly hair was already soaked with sweat, and droplets slowly fell from the tips of his hanging locks, splashing ripples onto the floor. Hot breath escaped his nose and mouth; between gasps, he managed to squeeze out a word of comfort.

"Come in~ I can endure it!"

Otsutsuki Biraku uttered these words in a trembling, oriole-like voice. In her white eyes, beyond the fear of the unknown, there was more of an inexplicable excitement. Looking at the robust arm Uchiha Gin had pressed against her, the heart that had been frozen for over sixty years began to stir quietly, beating violently at this very moment.

"Alright then, be careful, I'm going in now~"

Seeing that the other party was prepared, Uchiha Gin, who had been holding back for a long time, straightened his back impatiently, looking as if he were about to exert force. His black pupils were filled with determination; if he backed down now, he would surely be nailed to a pillar of shame and reviled by all.

Thus, his eyes erupted with sharp glints, his palms tensed, and with a forceful clap, he ruthlessly poured the massive amount of chakra he had been preparing for a long time into her body, instructing her as he poured:

"Receive my life essence well, and quickly follow them to circulate it!"

"Yes!"

Otsutsuki Biraku had no time to continue taking advantage of him openly. A flash of blue light crossed her white eyes, and the chakra that had been accumulating in her body for a long time began to wander throughout her system, following the path of Uchiha Gin's chakra.

"This feeling, I have never experienced it before!"

The chakra transformed into a warm current, washing away the stubborn impurities that had been silted up in Otsutsuki Biraku's meridians for years. This magical experience, filled with a slight tingling sensation amidst the comfort, made her unable to help but cry out:

"Ah~~~"

!!!

Hearing the sudden, sultry sound almost caused a crack to appear in Uchiha Gin's stable Dao heart. Fortunately, the other party had not yet transformed, otherwise, he definitely would not have been able to hold back and would have committed the mistake that all men make.

The heart is like ice; even if the sky falls, it remains unperturbed.

"That's about enough. Now that your body has learned the Butterfly Transformation Technique, there shouldn't be any more problems."

After a while, sensing that there were no more stubborn blockages in her body, Uchiha Gin slowly opened his eyes, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to the joyful Otsutsuki Biraku before him:

"Thank you, Mr. Gin!"

Otsutsuki Biraku changed her form of address, her face filled with respect as she called Uchiha Gin "Mr.", and her white eyes were filled with adoration.

Time returns to half an hour ago.

Just moments before, after hearing Uchiha Gin recite the Butterfly Transformation Technique once, the anxious Otsutsuki Biraku immediately began to practice it, the longing in her eyes nearly overflowing.

Although the Butterfly Transformation Technique was the secret art that the Akimichi clan relied upon for survival, in the eyes of the naturally gifted Otsutsuki clan, it was nothing special. Before long, Otsutsuki Biraku had mastered the Butterfly Transformation Technique.

Overjoyed, Otsutsuki Biraku immediately and impatiently performed the Butterfly Transformation Technique. Unexpectedly, an accident occurred. Her fat, which should have been consumed by the technique, began to expand and contract irregularly under the influence of the Akimichi secret art. In some places, it rose in layers, while in others, it sank deeply. The scene was once quite horrifying, as if she were possessed by Zac, turning into a lump of self-aware modeling clay.

Seeing that Otsutsuki Biraku's body was on the verge of collapse, Uchiha Gin, after a brief moment of surprise, realized the situation was wrong and immediately intervened to interrupt her secret art, ending her suffering. Annoyed, Otsutsuki Biraku, ignoring her own chaotic breath, grabbed the culprit by the collar and demanded a reasonable explanation, or else she would shorten his usage cycle to a three-day rotation.

A bewildered Uchiha Gin pulled the hand off his collar, a glimmer of understanding in his eyes. Looking at the disheveled Otsutsuki Biraku, he organized his thoughts and began to explain to her:

"The Butterfly Transformation Technique is definitely real; the biggest problem now lies with you yourself."

Rubbing his smooth chin, Uchiha Gin examined Otsutsuki Biraku's body from top to bottom with a scrutinizing gaze and slowly gave his answer:

"Me?"

Having regained some strength, Otsutsuki Biraku looked puzzled. How could she have made a mistake in such a simple ninjutsu?

"Your Otsutsuki clan's constitution is too formidable. This secret art of mine was designed for ordinary people; naturally, it cannot digest the stubborn impurities that have been entrenched in your body for so long."

Based on the conclusion from his earlier probe, Uchiha Gin understood the issue with the Otsutsuki clan's constitution. The reason Otsutsuki Biraku could never lose weight was likely because her period of obesity coincided with the golden age of her explosive growth in strength. Along with the transformation of her strength, a large amount of impurities had followed, and these indigestible impurities had silted into her fat and taken root there.

"So that means it failed."

Her heart, which had been hanging in the balance, died once more. Otsutsuki Biraku was dejected, her eyes filled with disappointment. She waved her hand, signaling that Uchiha Gin could leave, as she needed some quiet time.

"Don't be so hasty; I have a way."

Seeing the disciple he had finally recruited about to abandon his teachings, Uchiha Gin raised an eyebrow and spoke up:

"Really?"

Her mood like a roller coaster, flames ignited in Otsutsuki Biraku's eyes once again. She raised her head, trembling, and asked cautiously:

"Am I really saved?"

"Hmph! Don't panic, watch me refine it in an instant!"

Uchiha Gin let out a cold snort, his eyes filled with disdain. With a wave of his hand, he had Otsutsuki Biraku take a seat, while he sat opposite her, slowly closing his eyes, mobilizing the chakra in his body, and preparing to take action to refine the impurities that had existed in her body for over sixty years.

Under Otsutsuki Biraku's skeptical gaze, Uchiha Gin placed his large hand on her body. She was startled at first, her body tensing up.

But as the chakra in Uchiha Gin's body surged and she sensed strands of warm, gentle power flowing into her, Otsutsuki Biraku relaxed. Her eyes sparkled, and she had a few little thoughts of her own.

Mr. Gin is truly a kind and responsible man; I must protect him well.

Waves of tingling sensations transmitted from Uchiha Gin's warm palm, causing the distracted Otsutsuki Biraku to cry out involuntarily:

"Ah~ K-meow-gee~"
