"Drip..."
Amid the darkness and silence, the sound of water droplets splashing onto a surface abruptly rang out beside his ear.
Had he entered?
Slowly opening his eyes, Chiba found his vision instantly filled with a dim yellow hue—the ground beneath his feet was like water, while the walls on either side seemed to be formed from countless embedded pipes.
Without a doubt, this was the Sealed Space.
The chance of entering it was apparently one hundred percent.
After confirming it, Chiba took a slight breath, a relieved thought flashing through his mind.
At this moment, he had once again taken the Higan he had prepared himself and begun his experiment. Back at the camp, Doctor Watanabe was watching over his body and had also prepared a series of testing tools. Every minute, Doctor Watanabe would draw blood from him to collect samples for later analysis.
"Then I'll first memorize whatever I can."
With that thought, Chiba did not waste any words. He walked straight beneath the enormous and intricate Sealing Jutsu Formula and began the same memorization work as last time.
Though this was drug testing, he had still entered the Sealed Space. Memorizing more now meant needing to memorize less in the future, and taking this potent poison one fewer time.
After all, the effects of this poison were still unstable—or rather, not yet clearly determined. Every time Chiba took it, he was not entirely unafraid. He still felt uneasy deep down.
Taking it one fewer time was still a good thing.
Moreover, he wanted to memorize this tenth of the Sealing Jutsu Formula as soon as possible. Memorization was only the first hurdle. Even though it was merely one-tenth, this portion of the Sealing Jutsu Formula was actually more than twice as complex as the Yin Seal.
