Time passed slowly, and the group waited below.
Qing Si's actions showed neither the appearance of an immortal nor the symptoms of frogification, yet natural energy continued to gather.
This situation is unprecedented.
"Lord Fukasaku, is Kiyoshi practicing some kind of new 'immortal arts'?"
Minato Namikaze asked, puzzled.
"I taught him authentic Myōboku-style 'Sage Arts'."
He spoke solemnly.
He also applied "toad oil" to Kiyoshi, and this place is located on Mount Myoboku.
If Qing Si were to gather natural energy, he would definitely be affected by the frogification.
Because this is the land of toads.
Once outside, the body adapts to these subconscious influences and may exhibit frog-like behavior.
"Let's see again."
Jiraiya rubbed his chin.
To be honest, he really wants to go have a drink with the new girls.
But when he thought of Tsunade's request, Jiraiya didn't dare to leave.
If Kiyoshi really gets into trouble, Tsunade will probably skin him alive.
He experienced both the Second and Third Shinobi World Wars, and even in the battle between the Sannin and Hanzo, Jiraiya was not seriously injured.
He was caught spying on Tsunade before he could succeed, and was nearly killed by her with a single punch.
That was also the closest he ever came to death.
Therefore, he became much more restrained afterward and dared not openly spy on Tsunade anymore.
"Natural energy flows almost like the wind."
Minato Namikaze stretched out his hand, and the surrounding natural energy rapidly gathered upwards, like a whale sucking in its breath.
"Finally, the immortal's face has appeared."
Suddenly, Fukasaku interrupted Minato Namikaze.
At the same time, he gripped the black wooden board in his hand tightly, ready to immediately disperse the natural energy should Qing Si encounter any problems.
If such a large amount of natural energy is not intervened in time, Qing Si will directly turn into a toad and then petrify.
Jiraiya and Minato both looked in that direction.
Suddenly, Kiyoshi's eye sockets turned orange, and his eyes opened at that moment.
A black horizontal line runs through its brown-gold pupils, a characteristic unique to the "divine arts" of Mount Myōboku, giving it a frog-like eye.
"It's done."
Jiraiya was quite surprised.
He thought Qing Si would have much more time, three months or half a year.
As a result, he successfully completed his cultivation in just one afternoon.
"But the natural energy still hasn't stopped."
Minato Namikaze can still feel the flow of natural energy in his hands.
This indicates that the changes in the Qing Dynasty have not yet stopped.
"How much chakra must it take to convert so much natural energy?"
Minato Namikaze said, with a hint of envy in his voice.
Everyone who practices "Sage Arts" needs more chakra than an ordinary person.
If there is too little, it will be affected by natural energy.
Too much of it will make it difficult to convert.
Because it needs to be distributed in a 1:1:1 ratio, even a little less will not produce "Sage Chakra".
"Three-way allocation..."
Kiyoshi's mind was completely absorbed in his body.
The last time I focused so intently on my internal body was when I received the infusion from the White Snake Sage in Ryuchi Cave.
"You have learned a new term: [Term: Toad Transformation into an Immortal (Purple)]".
A new term appeared before Qing Si.
[Entry: Toad Transforms into an Immortal (Purple)]
[Requirement fulfilled: Receive instruction from the Toad Sage and experience the energy of nature.]
【Progress: (Completed).】
[Effect: Your physical body has experienced the "Toad's" understanding of natural energy, and your affinity for "natural energy" has increased by 100% from the original level.]
Your cultivation speed of the Myoboku lineage's immortal arts has increased by 100% from its original level.
The power of your Myoboku-style sage techniques has increased by 100%.
When a "toad" is weaker than you, it will involuntarily bow down to you and acknowledge you as its master.
[Advanced Path 1: Gather the "Immortal Techniques" from the three holy lands to obtain an advanced golden attribute.]
"Similar to the two entries we obtained before."
While harmonizing the natural energy, Qing Si spared a sliver of his consciousness to look at the entry panel.
He didn't linger; after a quick glance, he chose to advance.
"You have learned a new entry: [Entry: Celestial Appearance (Gold)]".
A new term appeared before Qing Si.
[Entry: Celestial Appearance (Gold)]
[Requirement fulfilled: Gather the immortal techniques from the three holy lands.]
【Progress: (Completed).】
[Effect: You have mastered all the magic arts, making it easier to develop new magic arts.]
Your physical body can subtly influence the natural energy around you to some extent.
Your chakra nature has changed, and it will take on a natural quality.
The training speed of all your magical arts will increase by 300% from the original level.
The power of all your magic spells is increased by 300%.
You have gained the ability of "enlightenment," which allows you to plant the seeds of "divine arts" in others.
【Note: You can advance later. 】
"Enlightenment?"
Qing Si slowed down the pace of harmonizing natural energy, allowing him to devote more of his attention to contemplation.
This does have a bit of the meaning of "an immortal helped me up and granted me longevity."
With such abilities, it's no wonder he's called "the appearance of an immortal."
……
"Why did it slow down?"
When Minato Namikaze saw that Kiyoshi had slowed down, he thought something unexpected was about to happen.
Before long, he discovered that the speed of natural energy had returned to normal.
This strange phenomenon left him somewhat baffled.
Unbeknownst to him, this was Kiyoshi relaxing his mind.
What requires complete concentration and cannot be distracted by others can be an exception for Kiyoshi.
……
"The first effect is that it can help me complete the fusion faster."
Kiyoshi closed the entry panel.
He wanted to combine the "immortal arts" of the three holy lands with the power of the curse seal.
This can already be described as developing magical arts.
An unprecedented and perfectly perfect "immortal technique".
hiss……
Three distinctly different colors of "Sage Chakra" swirl within Kiyoshi's meridian system.
Not long after, another cursed seal power appeared.
The outward manifestation of this is that Kiyoshi's eyeshadow now has three colors, resulting in a chaotic black.
The color of the "magic robe" covering his body was also constantly changing.
This scene naturally caught the attention of the people below.
"Those are... other 'immortal arts'?"
Fukasaku stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
Behind Qing Si, the "Celestial Art Garment" resembled a burning flame, extending out illusory serpents. These serpents, like slugs, began to split apart one by one.
In the blink of an eye, countless snake shadows appeared behind Kiyoshi.
The snake shadows began to gather again, forming a huge phantom.
Each scale is like a nimble snake in motion.
"They can actually solidify Sage Chakra to this extent."
Not only was Fukasaku incredulous, but Minato Namikaze and Jiraiya were too.
Bang!
A muffled thud erupted from Kiyoshi's body.
The internal organs and meridian system were almost shattered, but thanks to Qing Si's powerful regenerative abilities, they recovered rapidly.
The "Hundred Healings Seal" blossomed from the center of Kiyoshi's forehead, unleashing all the chakra he had stored up.
"If anyone else tries to imitate me, they will immediately split into stones."
A fine sheen of sweat trickled down Qing Si's forehead.
In the event of an accident, he would immediately stop and cut off the affected flesh.
With his recovery ability, as long as it's not a large-scale loss, he can recover slowly.
"Mount Myoboku is more sunny, Ryuchi Cave is more shady, and Shikkotsu Forest is moderate."
Kiyoshi worked hard to fuse the three chakras together.
After the addition of "Sage Chakra" from Mount Myōboku, the original balance was directly broken.
It seems like they have everything they need, yet they've started to clearly distinguish themselves again.
This is not something that can be accomplished simply by squeezing them together.
His breathing also became erratic.
"We still have to rely on the power of the curse seal."
Kiyoshi stimulated the curse mark pattern in the middle of his chest.
Black flame patterns clung to his skin, slowly becoming deeper and deeper.
Kiyoshi's hair kept growing longer, and a crackling sound came from inside his body.
The curse seal has two states.
