"Whoosh..."

At this stage, Lan Xiangrong still hadn't broken the Monster Ido's genjutsu, so he could only watch helplessly as Uchiha Yue's Ghost Tiger attacked, unable to dodge. [sgu,60, ss search|say free download] Then, Uchiha Yue's Ghost Tiger struck Lan Xiangrong's throat, severing his head. With that, Uchiha Yue Lan Xiangrong longer needed to worry about Lan Xiangrong retaliating, because without his head, Lan Xiangrong had absolutely no chance of survival.

However, after Uchiha Yue successfully killed Lan Xiangrong, the victorious Uchiha Yue collapsed to the ground.

Because during his previous battle with Lan Xiangrong, Uchiha Yue not only consumed too much chakra, but also severely overdrawn his mental energy. Just using Chakra Threads Rasengan control the Rasengan spinning in mid-air during Hand Seals consumed a significant amount of Uchiha Yue's mental energy. Moreover, Uchiha Yue currently needs to suppress the Monster Ido within him, as Monster Ido has been constantly trying to devour Uchiha Yue mental energy.

"Call..."

"It definitely needs to be restored!"

Seeing Lan Xiangrong's headless corpse lying on the ground, Uchiha Yue slumped to the ground, preparing to recover his spiritual energy and chakra.

Furthermore, Uchiha Yue wanted to seal the Monster Ido inside her again before the Sunagakure ninjas attacked.

Undoubtedly, Uchiha Yue's use of Monster Ido in battle was a high-stakes gamble. However, if Monster Ido hadn't used genjutsu on Lan Xiangrong, Uchiha Yue would undoubtedly have lost. This is because Uchiha Yue had already given his all, yet was still suppressed by Lan Xiangrong and placed at a disadvantage. It was precisely because Uchiha Yue realized he lacked the strength to win that he risked releasing Monster Ido from within him, intending to use Monster Ido to ambush Lan Xiangrong.

Without a doubt, Uchiha Yue made the right gamble this time. Monster Ido did indeed perform a meritorious service, helping him kill the Sunagakure Jonin, Lan Xiangrong. However, it was precisely because Uchiha Yue won that he needed to suppress Monster Ido fiercely. Uchiha Yue didn't want to have his spiritual energy devoured by Monster Ido after defeating Lan Xiangrong; such a victory would be of no benefit to Uchiha Yue.

But is the Monster Ido so easily suppressed?

The answer is, of course, no!

Taking advantage of the moment when Uchiha Yue's spiritual energy and chakra were extremely depleted, the Monster Ido finally found an opportunity to devour the spiritual energy within Uchiha Yue's body. However, Uchiha Yue had been paying close attention to the Monster Ido's every move, so the Monster Ido had no chance to retaliate and was still being suppressed within Uchiha Yue's body by his spiritual energy.

However, Uchiha Yue knew very well that he didn't have much time left to suppress the Monster Ido.

Therefore, when the Monster Ido launched its next counterattack, Uchiha Yue, having recovered her chakra with the Uchiha Clan Secret Medicine, immediately began using Sealing Jutsu!

"Seal up!"

Taking advantage of the moment before the Monster Ido went completely berserk, Uchiha Yue used the sliver of chakra he had just recovered to successfully seal the Monster Ido within him. Seeing Monster Ido sealed away again, Uchiha Yue was finally able to breathe a slight sigh of relief. After dealing with Uchiha Yue Lan Xiangrong's body, he found a relatively secluded spot and prepared to use Uzumaki Clan Secret Technique to restore his spiritual energy.

Unfortunately, Uchiha Yue never expected that when he sealed the Monster Ido again, Monster Ido had a trick up its sleeve!

It's important to understand that the Monster Ido's intelligence is in no way inferior to that of an ordinary person. Moreover, it had been sealed away once before. Back when Uchiha Yue unleashed it, a portion of its power had been hidden within Uchiha Yue's spiritual energy. Therefore, when Uchiha Yue used the Uzumaki Clan's secret technique to restore his spiritual energy, that portion of Monster Ido's power suddenly resurfaced!

"Pain!"

Suddenly, the power that the Monster Ido had left in Uchiha Yue's spiritual energy began to backfire, directly devouring the last of Uchiha Yue's spiritual energy. Sensing that his spiritual energy was disappearing little by little, Uchiha Yue felt a splitting headache and could only rely on his willpower to barely use the Uzumaki Clan Secret Technique to restore his spiritual energy.

Moreover, when Uchiha Yue had a headache, he also realized that it was the Monster Ido causing the trouble.

Therefore, Uchiha Yue planned to let the Monster Ido run rampant for a while, and then deal with that trace of Monster Ido's power when he had fully recovered his spiritual energy!

Then, as Uchiha Yue slowly recovered his spiritual energy, the power of the Monster Ido was devouring Uchiha Yue's spiritual energy and gradually growing stronger. Unfortunately, only a portion of the Monster Ido's power remained outside, so its speed in devouring Uchiha Yue's spiritual energy was not as fast as the speed at which Uchiha Yue recovered his spiritual energy using the Uzumaki Clan's secret technique.

For a full half hour, Uchiha Yue endured the pain of the Monster Ido devouring his spiritual energy.

However, the moment Uchiha Yue finally recovered his spiritual energy, a glint of light flashed in his eyes!

"Ido, since you dare to devour my spiritual energy, I'll show you just how serious the consequences of doing so are!"

Thinking of this, Uchiha Yue then used his own spiritual energy to directly suppress the power of that Monster Ido!

Moreover, because the Monster Ido had just devoured Uchiha Yue's spiritual energy, Uchiha Yue surprisingly discovered that he could use his own spiritual energy to reclaim his own spiritual energy from the Monster Ido. Seeing this, a look of joy immediately appeared in Uchiha Yue's eyes, because he finally had a way to devour the Monster Ido's power!

Immediately afterwards...

Without the slightest hesitation, Uchiha Yue expended a large amount of spiritual energy to reclaim the spiritual energy that originally belonged to him.

As Uchiha Yue began to vie for his own spiritual energy, the power of the Monster Ido could be seen gradually weakening. Furthermore, once Uchiha Yue completely reclaimed his own spiritual energy, the Monster Ido's power offered no resistance whatsoever, and was directly absorbed into Uchiha Yue's own spiritual energy!

However, just after Uchiha Yue fully absorbed the power of the Monster Ido, he suddenly discovered that a memory that was no less powerful than his own had appeared in his mind.

Seeing the strange situation unfold, Uchiha Yue frowned slightly, and then began to read the memories that did not belong to him.

Then, when Uchiha Yue began reading those memories that weren't his own, he realized that the Monster Ido's gift had arrived!
