Breaking the Seal

With a direction, both guessing and research became much easier. Yichen and Atsumi Akino started thinking about Space-Time, and many previously incomprehensible structures suddenly became clear.

After half a day of half-study and half-guessing, Yichen and Atsumi Akino had almost figured out the function of these runes. At the same time, they also guessed the function of the seal.

As for Uzumaki Riori and Ishinose Kiyoshi, since they couldn't understand anything, they went back to continue their training early.

Yichen speculated that the inside of the seal should be a passageway connecting to another dimension, and the purpose of the seal was to isolate the other dimension from the Ninja World.

Yichen was very curious about what was at the other end of the passage. At this moment, Yichen hesitated, wondering whether he should break the seal.

What if this seal is broken, and a world-destroying monster emerges from the other side?

However, after thinking it over, Yichen decided to break the seal.

If this were in the Land of Earth, Yichen would definitely think twice, but this is in the Land of Whirlpools, on the other side of the Land of Fire. Even if there is danger, Konoha, Kirigakure, and Kumogakure will be there to protect them.

Of the Five Great Nations, the Land of Earth is the furthest from the Land of Whirlpools.

With this in mind, Yichen created two Shadow Clones. One Shadow Clone stayed in the sky with his three disciples and his main body, ready to escape immediately if anything happened.

Another Shadow Clone remained on the ground, ready to use Ninjutsu to disrupt any potential enemies and buy time for the main body to escape.

After preparing, Yichen began to use his Ninjutsu: Light Release: World Splitter Jutsu.

A flash of blue light pierced through the seal, creating a huge hole. The remaining seal flickered a few times before completely disintegrating.

Without the cover of the seal, a black hole was revealed at the bottom of the pit.

Upon seeing this, Yichen's main body activated his Chakra, ready to escape at any moment, while his Shadow Clone below began to slowly approach the black hole.

The process wasn't long; the Shadow Clone reached the cave entrance in no time. Seeing that nothing came out, the Shadow Clone jumped inside.

Soon, the Shadow Clone that had entered dissipated. Yichen was startled to hear the Shadow Clone's memories being transmitted back so quickly; could there be danger at the entrance of the black hole?

Just as he was about to run away, the memories of the Shadow Clone stopped Yichen in his tracks.

The feeling was... was it gravity? To be precise, it was super-strong gravity. The Shadow Clone couldn't even stand up after entering it and slammed face-first into the ground.

Then the Shadow Clone disappeared.

Could it be that the interior of this seal is a space with extremely strong gravity?

Wait, Gravity Space? Could this be one of the Gravity Space within Kaguya Otsutsuki's alternate dimensions that allow her to travel through Yomotsu Hirasaka?

Thinking of this, Yichen created another Shadow Clone, this time using Shadow Clone Light-Weight Rock Technique with all his might. The Shadow Clone, using the Light-Weight Rock Technique, flew into the black hole as Yichen instructed.

This time, the Shadow Clone didn't dissipate quickly; rather, Shadow Clone disintegrated on their own after a considerable period of time.

"It really is Gravity Space." How did the Uzumaki Clan manage to locate even another dimension?

After the alarm was lifted, Yichen planned to go down and take a look himself.

Although there was no one else inside, the immense gravity was dangerous enough, and some preparations had to be made before going in.

This state is definitely not good. After creating Shadow Clone several times, Yichen's Chakra reserves are clearly insufficient. Moreover, after studying the seal for many consecutive days, Yichen's mental state is not good.

Let's rest for the night first and then talk about it.

The next day, Yichen, now in peak condition, first entered Sage Mode and then decisively flew into the black hole.

The moment Yichen entered the black hole, he felt an immense gravitational pull.

At this moment, Yichen used the Light-Weight Rock Technique, but it was still not enough to counteract the effect of the super gravity, and he fell rapidly downwards.

However, Yichen, who was prepared in advance, did not panic. He adjusted his body posture as much as possible in the air, which was something Yichen was good at.

Soon, the Yichen settled on the ground.

Despite Yichen's attempts to adjust his posture, he still landed face down.

However, Yichen was empowered by Sage Mode at this time, and his power far exceeded his usual level.

Yichen struggled to his feet and tried to jump, only to find it too difficult. Straightening his bent legs required overcoming gravity bit by bit, let alone jumping.

Immortal Technique - Earth Release - Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall.

The Gravity Space allows the use of Ninjutsu, as Yichen confirmed with his Shadow Clone the day before; otherwise, he wouldn't have dared to enter.

Yichen created an Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall beneath his feet, successfully lifting himself up.

However, due to the limitations of the extremely strong gravity, Yichen's Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall, enhanced by Senjutsu, was not very high. It was far from reaching the effect of the A-rank Ninjutsu Earth Style: Earth Flow Fortress.

So Yichen continued to use Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall, casting more than a dozen Earth Style: Earth Flow Wall in a row, and finally raised the Yichen to near the entrance.

Since it was the first time his true form had entered, and fearing that the disciples outside might be anxious, Yichen didn't linger inside but immediately went in.

Seeing Yichen emerge, the three children breathed a sigh of relief. Yichen smiled slightly, gave them a few instructions, and then re-entered the Gravity Space.

This space is a treasure trove for Yichen; a place where gravity can be felt continuously is extremely rare. It is particularly easy for Yichen to practice Ninjutsu related to gravity here.

The gravity environment in the Ninja World is imperceptible to those living there, unless they fall from a great height, in which case they will experience some sense of weightlessness.

Within this space, Yichen could constantly feel immense gravity, as if someone were pointing at Yichen and demonstrating his gravity Gravity Ninjutsu. By carefully experiencing the gravity here, which was different from the outside world, Yichen could improve his proficiency in gravity-based Ninjutsu.

After practicing the Light-Weight Rock Technique and the Added-Weight Rock Technique, Yichen Yichen felt that his proficiency with these two Ninjutsu had reached its limit. Then, he began to practice two new S-rank Ninjutsu: the Ultra-Light-Weight Rock Technique Ultra-Added-Weight Rock Technique.

The process went very smoothly. These two S-rank Ninjutsu were upgraded versions of the Light-Weight Rock Technique and the Added-Weight Rock Technique, and learning them in this environment made everything seem like a natural progression.

Then there are Banshō Ten'in and Shinra Tensei. These two Ninjutsu are more difficult to learn because the previous Ninjutsu were all gravity Ninjutsu, which were perfectly suited to the environment, but these two Ninjutsu are pure Gravity Ninjutsu.

Gravity is related to gravitational force, but they are not entirely the same.

However, Yichen still gained a lot. The Banshō Ten'in, Ninjutsu that Yichen already used quite well, has now been improved in both power and casting range.

The biggest gain was Shinra Tensei. Although Shinra Tensei is an S-rank Ninjutsu, Yichen rarely used it. The reason was simple: its power was too weak. When he first learned it, Shinra Tensei only had the power of C-rank Ninjutsu.

Yichen uses Shinra Tensei primarily to accelerate the movement of his Kunai.

Later, Yichen's gravity-based Ninjutsu didn't improve much. It was only last year that Yichen calmed down, stayed in the village, and while organizing various Ninjutsu, he made a slight improvement.

This time, Yichen truly brought about a qualitative leap in Shinra Tensei.

Yichen felt that his current Shinra Tensei was already stronger than most B-rank Ninjutsu and was almost at the level of A-rank Ninjutsu.

No wonder Nagato likes to use Shinra Tensei against his enemies; it's just too convenient and practical.

If Shinra Tensei, which can be used without Hand Seals, is so powerful, then why use other Ninjutsu?

For example, Yichen used the Porcelain Release for a period of time simply because Porcelain Release was convenient and versatile, making it easy to deal with enemies.

In the Gravity Space, Yichen practiced each Ninjutsu technique and gained a great deal.

Of course, in this space, Yichen dared not use the Added-Weight Rock Technique on himself; he only dared to experiment on the objects around him.

The training process was quick; in just three days, Yichen was able to fly in this space using the Ultra-Light-Weight Rock Technique.

At this point, Yichen stopped cultivating and chose to leave.

After flying out of this space, Yichen covered the black hole again and then used Earth Release is a technique in Chinese fantasy novels) to fill the pit back in. Although Yichen's simple and crude method could not compare with the Sealing Jutsu of the Uzumaki Clan, it was better than nothing.

After finishing the matter, Yichen left Uzushio Village with his three disciples.

On the way back, Yichen also picked up the scroll containing the intelligence ninja's hiding place, thus completing his mission in the Land of Whirlpools.

Because they had spent too much time in Uzushio Village, Yichen and his companions chose to fly on their way back.

Because he had gained something from practicing gravity in the Gravity Space, Yichen's flight speed using the Light-Weight Rock Technique was also much faster.

Yichen hadn't forgotten his promise to the Shark Swarm, so instead of returning directly to Iwagakure, he went to the place where the Shark Swarm had gathered before.

Upon seeing Yichen and his group finally return, the Great Shark Yuko was overjoyed. It immediately came forward and had a conversation with Ishinose Kiyoshi.

Then Yichen led several hundred sharks towards the Land of the Moon.

Yichen has two options to bring the Shark Swarm back to the coast of the Land of Earth. One is to go around the Land of Lightning from the outside, which is entirely at sea, but it takes too long.

The other path is through the Land of the Moon. This path was originally impossible for the Shark Swarm because the oceans on the left and right sides of the Land of the Moon are not connected.

But Yichen said it was simple: if you can't swim across, then fly across.

Flying directly back to the Land of Earth with these hundreds of sharks would definitely exhaust Yichen, but if it's just crossing the Land of the Moon, Yichen says it'll be a piece of cake.

However, Yichen was never known for his Chakra reserves, so he wanted to conserve as much as possible. Under the cover of Yichen, he had the Shark Swarm swim inland along the river of the Land of the Moon. When they could no longer swim, he used the Light-Weight Rock Technique to send the sharks one by one to the other side of the ocean.

Although Yichen's Light-Weight Rock Technique had improved considerably, he was still exhausted.

Fortunately, all the sharks were finally delivered before dawn.
