Hand Seal-less Porcelain Release
Without hesitation, Yichen wrote a scroll expressing his desire to practice the Kekkei Tōta and to seek in-depth insights from Ōnoki regarding Dust Release.
After sealing it with Sealing Jutsu, they summoned the ninja from the Land of Demons Branch who was responsible for contacting the village.
This person was nearby; he was a member of the Anbu served as a messenger for Yichen. This was also a special request from advisors like Ikura; from now on, Yichen would have to take a ninja who knew the Shark Summoning Jutsu with him wherever he went.
"Fish, give this scroll directly to the Third Hokage. Once he replies, give it back to me immediately," Yichen said to the ninja dressed as Anbu.
"Yes." Upon hearing this, the Anbu codenamed Fish immediately bit his finger and summoned a small shark. After giving a few instructions, he placed the scroll into the shark's mouth and quickly dispelled the Summoning Jutsu.
After doing all this, the fish didn't leave, but stayed by Yichen's side, ready to receive any messages from the shark.
Soon, as if sensing something, he cast the Summoning Jutsu again.
The same shark appeared again, and as soon as it appeared, it spat out a new scroll from its mouth.
Yichen was a little surprised. How could it be so fast? Didn't Ōnoki need time to write his reflections? Although puzzled, Yichen still took the scroll that Yu handed him and nodded to him.
Upon seeing this, the fish immediately dispelled its Summoning Jutsu, then vanished from Yichen's sight in a flash.
Yichen received was naturally the Ninjutsu experience about Dust Release passed down by Ōnoki.
Ōnoki knew that Yichen was very opinionated and had his own plans regarding what to cultivate and how to cultivate it. Yichen was able to make very clear choices, directly abandoning what he considered unimportant. He could also prioritize the remaining important cultivation content.
Yichen rarely took detours in his cultivation journey, which was actually the biggest advantage of being a transmigrator. Yichen clearly knew the limits of what and what was worth spending time on.
Yichen also knew what preparations were needed for cultivating certain things, so to outsiders, Yichen's cultivation of those strange things always seemed incredibly fast.
Therefore, although Ōnoki was unclear about what Yichen's goal was, he did not intend to interfere.
Even though Ōnoki thought that Yichen would ask him for his insights on Dust Release soon after learning Light Release, he didn't expect that Yichen would never delve deeper into Light Release.
It seems that Yichen learned Light Release simply to add another means of long-range, pinpoint attack.
Therefore, the scroll of insights that Ōnoki had prepared for Yichen long ago could not be given away. However, Ōnoki did not give it to him proactively. He was waiting for Yichen to add the Light Release technique to his training list.
Unexpectedly, Yichen has only now finally remembered to further cultivate his Light Release technique.
So the shark moved quickly, back and forth, because Ōnoki's insights were already there and didn't need to be written on the spot.
Yichen opened the scroll and glanced through it briefly.
It's clear that Ōnoki put a lot of effort into it. The scroll contains a lot of information, including insights from the Second Tsuchikage Mu, as well as Ōnoki's own reflections.
The content related to the Second Tsuchikage Mu mainly focuses on his development of Dust Release. The content related to Ōnoki, on the other hand, mainly focuses on his learning process and his insights after mastering Senjutsu and becoming more proficient in controlling Dust Release.
Needless to say, both the Second Hokage's mental journey and the specific methods he used to develop Dust Release greatly inspired Yichen. Furthermore, Ōnoki's understanding of Dust Release after combining it with Senjutsu gave Yichen a sense of sudden enlightenment.
Instead of rushing into practice, Yichen carefully analyzed the scroll for several days, making sufficient theoretical preparations before starting his Light Release practice.
That day, Yichen led the three to an open space some distance from the branch office, preparing to practice Light Release.
Seeing that Yichen wasn't reading books today but preparing to practice Ninjutsu, Sokai and the other two were very excited and rushed over to watch.
The three of them felt that the Ninjutsu Yichen was going to practice must be a powerful Ninjutsu with an S-rank difficulty, and they all wanted to see it as soon as possible.
Yichen glanced at his three disciples without saying a word. Showing them powerful techniques and giving them a deeper understanding of Chakra was something Yichen had always been doing.
Yichen assumed the starting stance for Light Release, aimed at a Kajiyamari a few hundred meters away, and then began to Light Release.
Unlike before, when he would unleash the power of his Light Release technique all at once, this time, Yichen tried to control the attack range of his Light Release, concentrating it on a small area. This lasted for more than ten seconds.
Unlike Yichen's previous targets, the Kajiyamari in the distance wasn't blasted apart; instead, it was riddled with a large hole. The impact was also much less significant.
The three of them, Sokai, had expected to witness a cataclysmic event, but the scene was surprisingly calm, which puzzled them.
But Yichen was very satisfied with his results. Not only satisfied, but also somewhat incredulous. Could he have successfully executed the Light Release Limit Splitter Jutsu?
It achieves both reducing the attack range of the Light Release and providing sustained damage.
However, Yichen felt that the current level was not yet a complete Limit Splitter Jutsu; it was more of a transitional phase.
However, you should consider yourself to have mastered the basics. With more practice, the day you truly succeed shouldn't be too far off.
However, Yichen found that the results of this experiment were much better than he had expected, and it seemed that his control over Chakra had improved significantly compared to before.
Improved Chakra control is a good thing, but it also has problems. Yichen's perception of the power of the Ninjutsu he has mastered may be flawed, which can be fatal at times.
Especially since Yichen is currently instructing students, if he were to practice Ninjutsu against them one day and fail to control the power properly, he would be in serious trouble.
"Could it be because I've reached the third stage of Yin Release cultivation?" With that thought in mind, Yichen immediately conducted an investigation.
The method is simple: Yichen begins Hand Seals and performing a standard Ninjutsu. If the standard Ninjutsu also improves, then the cause of Ōnoki's Dust Release technique can be ruled out. That leaves only Yin Release.
"Earth Release: Earth Style: Mountain Earth Technique." Yichen Hand Seals and cast an A-rank Earth Style Jutsu.
Two enormous hemispherical boulders rose from the left and right sides in front of Yichen and the others, rapidly converging towards the center. Finally, with a loud bang, the two boulders collided, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Hiss~
The three disciples beside him didn't react. They had seen Yichen beat the mountain-like Moryo into flying wildly in the air. This scene didn't even meet their expectations for the powerful Ninjutsu that Yichen was using.
But Yichen was very excited because his Hand Seals speed had just exceeded 7 seals for the first time. His average speed was between 6.8 and 7.3 seals per second.
In addition, the power of his Earth Release Chakra to perform, was also enhanced, and the closing speed of the Earth Style: Mountain Earth Technique was also increased.
It turns out that the power of Yin Release significantly enhances various Ninjutsu. No wonder the Uchiha's Fire Release in the original story made the Allied Forces question their existence.
Yichen was very excited. He had underestimated the increase in strength brought about by his progress in Yin Release. He originally thought that only his Genjutsu Resistance had improved, but he did not expect that his Chakra control and Ninjutsu power had also increased significantly.
It seems that besides practicing Light Release, I also need to familiarize myself with the variations of my actual Ninjutsu.
Thinking of this, Yichen's body trembled, and he forcefully suppressed a certain thought that suddenly arose in his mind. He took a deep breath and calmed his overly excited heart.
Then Yichen closed his eyes, his mind stirred, and he softly uttered, "Porcelain Release: Kunai Rain."
Suddenly, countless rocks appeared Kunai nowhere and shot towards the distant, uninhabited area.
"Hahahaha." Yichen could no longer hold back and burst into a hearty laugh.
Because of the previous use of Porcelain Release - Kunai Rain, Yichen did not Hand Seals.
It took Yichen about eight years to develop the Porcelain Release before he finally mastered the ability to use it without a seal.
Porcelain Release is Yichen's primary fighting technique when he is not in Sage Mode or Tailed Beast Mode.
Porcelain Release is incredibly versatile, making it difficult for enemies to defend against.
Porcelain Release can be used repeatedly, enabling multiple attacks.
Porcelain Release can also be combined with Sealing Jutsu to infinitely raise its potential.
However, Yichen's use of Porcelain Release has always had a major weakness: he must maintain Hand Seals Yichen sustain the use of Porcelain Release.
Previously, when Yichen used the Porcelain Release, he had to maintain a hand seal with one hand. Once this hand seal was not maintained, Yichen's Porcelain Release would dissipate.
This made it almost impossible for Yichen to use other Ninjutsu at the same time. As a result, in many battles, Yichen had to create a Porcelain Release Clone to maintain the Porcelain Release attack.
Using clones in combat has many drawbacks. The process of creating Clone Technique can easily lead to losing the initiative, giving the enemy an opportunity to gain the upper hand. Furthermore, clones have very low intelligence and resilience, making them prone to problems.
But now everything has changed. The success of the Hand Seal-less Porcelain Release has freed Yichen from a huge shackle, allowing for a wider variety of combat methods in the future.
Amidst the bewildered gazes of his three disciples, Yichen waved his hand and said, "Let's go see that Kajiyamari that was pierced by the Light Release."
The group arrived at the large hole that had been pierced by Yichen's Light Release.
Looking at the smooth, clean profile around the hole, as if it had been cut by a sharp blade, Yichen was very satisfied.
Sokai, unable to contain his doubts, asked, "Teacher Yichen, the power of your Light Release technique this time wasn't as strong as it was when we fought the Moryo last time. Why are you so happy?"
Yichen glanced at Sokai sideways and said, "You decide for yourself."
Sokai was speechless after being choked by Yichen's words, so he snorted and stopped talking.
Yichen chuckled inwardly, thinking to himself, "How can you, an Uchiha, not have a few ulterior motives in your mind?"
"Alright, go back and train. You all need to make up for the time you wasted today. The basic training time will be doubled today." Yichen was in a good mood and waved his hand, directly assigning training tasks to the three of them.
"Ah, why is Teacher Yichen like this?" Sokai in grief and anger, baring his teeth and claws as he lunged forward to protest against Yichen.
Chiga and the other two looked helpless. Through repeated harsh lessons from society, they had begun to realize Yichen's goofy nature.
Upon returning to the training grounds near the branch, Yichen did not immediately continue practicing Ninjutsu. Instead, he wrote down his speculations about the effects of Yin Release and sent them to the village.
