Chakra Control Reaches Maximum Proficiency

Having decided to max out his Chakra Control proficiency, he stopped doing anything else and focused solely on Tree Climbing or Water Walking training.

Ever since he had first successfully mastered using chakra to walk on water, none of his subsequent training had failed. Although, when he had just succeeded and his proficiency was still low, he had nearly failed several times.

But as the number of training sessions increased, his Chakra Control proficiency rose higher and higher, and his chakra manipulation grew more adept. Naturally, he no longer failed.

As time passed, his proficiency in Chakra Control continued to rise. Since he had not turned off the notifications in his mind, every successful session of walking on water or walking on trees granted him a large amount of proficiency.

"Ding dong, host's Chakra Control proficiency +50 (9350/10000)"

Another system notification rang out, signifying that Xuan Ye had once again successfully controlled his chakra to walk on a tree or across water.

His Chakra Control proficiency had already reached 9,350, nearing the maximum of 10,000. He just needed to push a little harder and see what would happen once this skill reached its limit.

Xuan Ye walked across trees again and again. Whenever he did not feel like walking on trees, he walked on water instead, alternating between the two forms of training.

"Ding dong, host's Chakra Control proficiency +50 (9400/10000)"

"Ding dong, host's Chakra Control proficiency +50 (9600/10000)"

"Ding dong, host's Chakra Control proficiency +50 (9800/10000)"

"Ding dong, host's Chakra Control proficiency +50 (9950/10000)"

At last, through Xuan Ye's efforts, his Chakra Control proficiency reached 9,950. Only the final 50 points remained before reaching the maximum of 10,000, and he only needed one more session of Tree Climbing or Water Walking training to obtain them.

At a moment like this, Xuan Ye could not help but grow excited. For his final training session, he chose Water Walking rather than Tree Climbing, since he had already climbed trees too many times. Besides, Water Walking had been the first training he had successfully completed after mastering Chakra Control.

Xuan Ye walked over to the clear little stream and, filled with excitement, took his first step. Naturally, his first foot easily landed on the water's surface without sinking. The second foot was the key—if it landed successfully on the water as well, then he would have succeeded.

If his second foot sank into the water, it would count as a failure. But failure would not matter much, because even then, his Chakra Control proficiency would still increase, only by ten points.

That was forty points less than succeeding at Water Walking, but his Chakra Control proficiency was already at 9,950. No matter how clumsy he was, he was bound to succeed.

Slowly, his second foot stepped out from the shore. It landed firmly on the water's surface without any mishap. This was exactly what Xuan Ye had expected; if this Water Walking training had failed, that would have been the unexpected outcome.

"Ding dong, host's Chakra Control proficiency +50 (10000/10000)"

"Ding dong, congratulations to the host. Chakra Control proficiency has reached the perfected realm. The host has received the reward for perfected Chakra Control."

"Ding dong, Chakra Control has gained an additional attribute."

"Ding dong, Chakra Control proficiency: Perfected (the host's chakra consumption when using ninjutsu is halved)"

"Ding dong, congratulations to the host for obtaining one Ninjutsu Scroll of the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu."

The system quickly explained all the rewards in Xuan Ye's mind.

Holy crap, this Chakra Control reward was seriously amazing. Forget the Chakra Control attribute—even the Shadow Clone scroll alone was enough. This Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu scroll was a treasure!

The Clone Technique and the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu were completely incomparable. The clones created by the Clone Technique were merely illusions, and their flaws could be seen through. But the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu was entirely different.

The Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu used chakra to create many clones, and every Shadow Clone possessed the same amount of chakra as the original body. Since the chakra was distributed evenly among every Shadow Clone during the technique's creation, there was no way to tell which one was the original.

The greatest aspect of the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu was that after a Shadow Clone exhausted its chakra or died, all the memories it had gained beyond those of the original body would be transmitted back to the original's mind. Naruto Uzumaki had relied on this ninjutsu to train in the anime.

However, it was precisely because everything experienced by the Shadow Clones would be transmitted back to the original after they disappeared that this technique was highly suited for stealing secret intelligence during ninja village wars. Thus, it had been classified as a forbidden technique that could not be learned.

The Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu could be considered an enormous cheat for training, but it consumed a great deal of chakra, so others could not create many Shadow Clones. However, this would not affect Xuan Ye.

Because his body carried the bloodline of the Uzumaki Clan, he naturally possessed far more chakra than other ninja, making the technique extremely practical for him.

Moreover, the system had just said that the additional attribute gained from Chakra Control was that the chakra cost of any ninjutsu he used would be halved. To be honest, Xuan Ye had been stunned when he saw that attribute.

What did halving chakra consumption when using ninjutsu mean? It meant that Xuan Ye's chakra expenditure for ninjutsu would be cut in half. If he could originally use ten ninjutsu, then with this attribute, he could now use twenty.

This was truly an extremely powerful and practical attribute. It could remain useful all the way into the late stages and still play an enormous role then.

Its advantage would be especially apparent in battle. Just imagine it: if an enemy had the same amount of chakra as him, but he possessed this attribute, then halving his chakra consumption when using ninjutsu would let him use twice as many ninjutsu as his opponent.

What kind of result would twice as many ninjutsu produce? It would be utterly terrifying. Even the slightest difference in battle could lead to defeat, let alone a difference of twice as many ninjutsu.

After obtaining this attribute, Xuan Ye's face was filled with wild joy. Nothing but wild joy could express the surging excitement in his heart. But excitement aside, he still needed to test it. He wanted to see exactly what it felt like to have his chakra consumption halved when using ninjutsu.

He had not used the Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven during yesterday's ninjutsu training, so he would try using it now and see how it felt.

Xuan Ye assumed the starting stance for Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven with both hands and feet. "Hah, Eight Trigrams Palms Revolving Heaven."

Little Black Dragon often read the book reviews, and many readers said that Little Black Dragon was too wordy. Little Black Dragon felt very helpless about that and had already been trying hard. After all, this was Little Black Dragon's first novel that he intended to keep writing. The two novels he had written before were just for fun. Perhaps the writing in this one seemed a little immature, but Little Black Dragon would persevere. Could the readers of this novel give Little Black Dragon a recommendation ticket? Could they add it to their collections? Those were all motivations for Little Black Dragon to keep writing. Finally, Little Black Dragon wanted to say that writing novels was truly exhausting. Every chapter took nearly two hours to write, so readers of this novel, please support Little Black Dragon and give him more motivation to continue. Lastly, thank you to the readers who have given me recommendation tickets, and thank you to everyone who supports me. Little Black Dragon offers his thanks once again.
