Light Release Development

Regarding the overall situation in the Ninja World, all the necessary arrangements have been made, and as Yichen anticipated, there would be a relatively long period of peace ahead.

Ōnoki embarked on his journey once again, this time bringing Matsutani Shinya along. Of course, Roshi was still forced upon Ōnoki by Yichen.

Yichen finally had time to continue his cultivation.

According to the plan, Yichen's training goal is to make his body fully adapt to the Light Release.

This is the main goal that Yichen set for himself.

As of now, Yichen has no concrete ideas on how to achieve this goal.

Yichen can do is continuously improve his proficiency with Dust Release.

This time, Yichen has a very important theoretical foundation: the insights of Madara Uchiha.

The amazing thing is that Madara Uchiha also had some research on some unorthodox Kekkei Genkai.

For example, Obito Uchiha to Yichen this time was no longer the usual Five-Attribute experience.

It's likely that Obito Uchiha also heard about the performance of the Iwa ninja in their battle against the Cloud ninja, and knew that the Iwa ninja's Five-Attribute Ninjutsu were improving rapidly.

Therefore, this time Obito Uchiha gave Yichen some insights into unorthodox Kekkei Genkai.

This struck Yichen as incredible. Madara Uchiha shouldn't have mastered these Kekkei Genkai, so how did he manage to write down his Kekkei Genkai?

In the original story, Madara Uchiha Storm Release absorbing the Ten-Tails. However, Yichen always believed that it was because his power level had increased after fusing with the Ten-Tails, and he reached that level by using a higher power level to achieve it.

Now Yichen realizes he was wrong. After the First Shinobi War the Valley of the End, Madara Uchiha may have spent decades researching the nature of Chakra.

Even though he couldn't Storm Release at that time, it's clear from his insights that Madara Uchiha had a deep understanding of Storm Release, a bloodline limit.

This profound understanding led Yichen to seriously suspect that Madara Uchiha had already mastered Storm Release.

This time, Obito Uchiha Yichen all these kinds of insights.

Yichen even wondered if Madara Uchiha, like himself, possessed multiple bloodline limits?

Yichen carefully read through each document and found it very helpful. In particular, Madara Uchiha's various descriptions and speculations about the fusion of the two attributes opened a door to a new world for Yichen.

"These insights are far more important than the Five-Attribute alone," Yichen thought inwardly, deeply moved.

After putting away his insights, Yichen, who had originally planned to practice Light Release while sitting in the Training Ground, instead used Porcelain Release.

Porcelain Release is the Kekkei Genkai that Yichen is most proficient in. Although Madara Uchiha has the Yichen Storm Release that Yi Chen knows, Yichen still plans to use Porcelain Release to test what he has learned.

Yichen used his Porcelain Release create a ball of mud that floated in front of him.

Then try to control the lump of mud.

The mud changes shape constantly, just like dough.

After an unknown amount of time, a few drops of water suddenly dripped from the mud.

Yichen caught it in his hand; it was indeed water, water without any Earth Release.

Then, Yichen separated the mud and separated a small clump of soil from the very center.

Yichen picked up the clod of soil with his other hand and carefully sensed it. It was a very simple clod of soil, without any Water Release.

"It really works!" Yichen muttered to himself.

This conclusion was drawn by Yichen from Madara Uchiha's insights.

The Kekkei Genkai Ninjutsu that has already been used is transformed back into two attributes.

This was something Yichen couldn't have done before, and had never even imagined.

As for whether doing this is actually useful, Yichen doesn't know, but Yichen does know one thing: it greatly helps in improving his proficiency with Porcelain Release.

With the direction correct, Yichen used the Porcelain Release again to continue practicing this separation technique.

Sure enough, the amazing Chakra had a memory function, making the second time much easier than the first.

Yichen's speed increased, and after a few days, Yichen was able to easily break down a Porcelain Mud the size of a human head into water and soil.

Yichen didn't stop; he practiced for several more days until he made this transformation as simple as eating and drinking.

Then Yichen began the next experiment.

It involves re-fusing the water and soil separated from the Porcelain Release into Porcelain Release.

This process was simpler than before. Perhaps because of his previous practice, Yichen had become more proficient in controlling the Porcelain Release, so he completed the practice in just two days.

In the Training Ground, Yichen stood still, his hands behind his back, looking calm and collected, as if he didn't care about anything.

He was surrounded by a large amount of mud, water, and rocks.

This mud is constantly turning into water and soil, while the flowing water and soil are constantly merging into new mud.

The two cycles repeat endlessly, making it seem as if Yichen could control his own limbs with ease.

"It's a pity that water and earth are too common. If it were replaced with water and lightning from the Storm Release, it would look even more ethereal." Yichen sighed, putting away his previous otherworldly expression.

After spending a considerable amount of time on Porcelain Release, Yichen finally turned his attention back to Light Release Bloodline Limit.

Yichen stretched out his hands and began to gather Light Release Chakra.

Soon, a small ball of Light Release Chakra appeared in front of Yichen. Yichen also wanted to control this ball of Light Release Chakra to decompose it.

However, the ball of Light Release soon went out of control.

Yichen Body Flicker Technique retreated, and at the same time, a Porcelain Barrier quickly appeared in front of him.

Thanks to the practice in the past few days, Yichen's speed in casting Porcelain Release has improved significantly.

Therefore, Yichen successfully protected himself with Porcelain Release before the Light Release exploded.

Boom~

The out-of-control Light Release exploded, vaporizing a layer of the Porcelain Barrier in front of Yichen.

Yichen breathed a sigh of relief, but was also a little scared; he had been too careless.

Unlike the Porcelain Release Light Release which has been completely integrated into his body, the Light Release is capable of instantly killing Yichen himself.

Yichen didn't give up the experiment; he just became more careful during practice.

As soon as the Light Release Chakra shows any sign of getting out of control, Yichen will immediately unleash the Light Release.

After dozens of attempts, there was no progress whatsoever.

But Yichen wasn't in a hurry; it didn't matter. Chakra would help him understand.

So in the days that followed, the Advisor Group members were surprised to find that Yichen stayed in the village very obediently and did not suggest going out to have fun.

This made the higher-ups somewhat uncomfortable.

Yichen didn't know what they were thinking. Anyway, Yichen only practiced this one thing every day: constantly trying to decompose the Light Release.

Although there is no progress in decomposing the Light Release, the progress in controlling it is quite obvious.

At first, as soon as Yichen started dismantling the Light Release, it went out of control within seconds.

But after more than a month, Yichen was able to control it for more than ten seconds.

This is a big improvement, and Yichen's self-confidence has been boosted.

However, Yichen does not plan to continue cultivating today.

I have to go collect rent from Obito Uchiha today. It's been a long time since I last went; almost two months, I think.

Yichen felt he was an incompetent landlord.

Yichen arrived above Obito Uchiha's base again and shouted, "Xian'er, come out!"

Soon a figure emerged from the ground, but this time it wasn't Obito Uchiha, but a White Zetsu clone.

White Zetsu clone tossed a scroll to Yichen, saying, "The master isn't here, so he asked me to give you this scroll."

Yichen took the scroll, examined it briefly, and wondered Obito Uchiha had gone. He then said, "Why is there only one? It's been two months."

The White Zetsu clone thought for a moment, then realized that Obito Uchiha be used every month.

So White Zetsu clone threw another one to Yichen.

After checking, Yichen continued, "There are still two short. Didn't Xian'er tell you about the rent increase?"

The White Zetsu clone chuckled and said, "The master said he has already moved the person and they are no longer in the Land of Earth, so the rent has been restored to one scroll."

Yichen was furious and shouted, "Nonsense! I made two contracts with Xian'er. He's not here, and you think you can change the contract with just your mouth?"

"Even if we want to change it, Xian'er has to come over and talk to me face-to-face."

"Besides, how am I supposed to know if you've moved out? Enough talk, give me the money!"

The White Zetsu clone hesitated for a moment, remembering Obito Uchiha: don't completely fall out with the Tsuchikage. So it took out two more scrolls and threw them to Yichen.

After examining the Yichen smiled with satisfaction, then asked the White Zetsu clone in a friendly manner, "You are White Zetsu clone, right? We have quite a few of your companions in our village."

"Your companions were all caught by me when I was a newbie, so we're kind of old acquaintances. Can you chat with me for a while?"

White Zetsu clone: ...

"Is this how you humans think? How come it's different from Obito said?"

Regardless of what White Zetsu clone was thinking, Yichen continued, "Tell me, where did Xian'er go?"

The White Zetsu clone remained tight-lipped, saying, "I don't know where the master went."

Yichen said, "Nonsense, shouldn't you report to Xian'er if you have something to say? Just tell me which direction you usually run in using Earth Release?"

Upon being asked this question by Yichen, White Zetsu clone subconsciously looked towards the east.

"Hmm? East side? Did they really move? They just left the Ten-Tails' body here and didn't care?" Yichen said loudly on purpose, but his eyes were fixed on the White Zetsu clone, and his Mind's Eye was also carefully observing its reaction.

After hearing Yichen's words, the White Zetsu clone shifted uncomfortably, its Chakra flow quickening. It did indeed appear somewhat tense.

"This reaction doesn't seem like they're deliberately trying to trick me? If that's the case, what about the east side?" Yichen pondered for a while.

The next moment, Yichen stared at the White Zetsu clone again and said, "So, Xian'er went to the Land of Iron. That's good. We, the Five Great Ninja Villages, well, we, the Six Great Ninja Villages, won't extend our reach into the Land of Iron."

"Xian'er has become smarter; he's stopped playing the 'blind spot' trick?"

As he spoke, Yichen continued to observe the White Zetsu clone's reaction.

The White Zetsu clone stiffened noticeably, and then, not daring to waste words with Yichen, it immediately vanished underground.

Yichen didn't call out to it, but instead wondered if this was possible Obito Uchiha's scheme.

In the original story, White Zetsu was able to change his appearance and infiltrate the Allied Forces, so his intelligence should be at least present.

Therefore, Yichen was unsure whether this was another trap devised by Black Zetsu and Obito Uchiha, like the underground temple incident last time.

If it's a conspiracy, then it's not going to be fun. After the last failure, if Black Zetsu and Obito Uchiha dare to set a trap again...

That must have taken into account Yichen's various abilities. If he foolishly walked into the trap, he would likely fall into it. Yichen dared not take that risk.

Or should we send someone else to test the waters? I wonder if Yuki Koru of the Mist ninja, has returned to the village yet.

It seems like more than a month has passed since he last issued a mission. It takes more than a month to find Obito Uchiha, which sounds quite reasonable.

Okay, he's the one.
