Multiple Shadow Clone Technique Plus Version

The nearest entrance to the Star Dou Great Forest from Spirit City was still over a thousand kilometers away.

Yue Guan could certainly fly Uchiha Huan there, but with Uchiha Huan's small frame, he would probably puke all over him halfway through. Even if they found a suitable Soul Beast upon reaching the Star Dou Great Forest, he would have no energy left to absorb its Spirit Ring.

So they might as well take a carriage and travel there properly, hunt for a spirit beast only after he had rested up.

The carriage was pulled by Dragon-Scale Beasts, one of the few Soul Beasts that could be domesticated. Even a ten-year Dragon-Scale Beast possessed considerable endurance.

The journey of a thousand kilometers took only six or seven days.

They spent a night in Soul-Hunting Town outside the Star Dou Great Forest, giving Uchiha Huan a glimpse of this world's scenery. Then master and disciple entered the forest.

As the largest gathering place for Soul Beasts on the Douluo Continent, it would not be an exaggeration to say Soul Beasts were everywhere here. Uchiha Huan also witnessed the diversity of species in this place.

Even a stone by the roadside might be some earth-element turtle-shell Soul Beast in disguise.

An ordinary-looking tree could send Uchiha Huan straight to meet his great-grandmother if he carelessly leaned against it.

"Do you see that Soul Beast over there?"

Uchiha Huan turned toward the direction Yue Guan pointed, but there was nothing there.

Uchiha Huan activated his Sharingan, but there was still nothing.

Could this kind of Soul Beast completely conceal both its aura and body?

"Mm, there's nothing there." Yue Guan patted Uchiha Huan's head.

"So, Old Chrysanthemum, were you messing with me?"

"I'm teaching you a lesson. I'm stronger than you, so even if I were messing with you, what could you do about it?"

"Old Chrysanthemum, I'll teach you a new lesson too once I become a Title Douluo."

"That'll be years from now. If I can't discipline my disciple, then why would I take one in?"

Uchiha Huan turned away. Suddenly, Yue Guan grabbed him and shot into the air.

Uchiha Huan flew ahead while his soul chased after him.

The next instant, Yue Guan set Uchiha Huan down atop the canopy.

"Shh..."

Uchiha Huan saw a Soul Beast a hundred meters away in the direction Yue Guan indicated.

The Soul Beast resembled a lizard, but its head was enormous, with half of it occupied by a single eye.

Phantom Demon One-Eyed Beast! Uchiha Huan's eyes lit up.

"Four hundred and fifty years. Want to challenge it?"

Uchiha Huan stared at the Phantom Demon One-Eyed Beast, gritted his teeth, and nodded. "That one."

Whoosh—

Yue Guan flashed forward and appeared before the Phantom Demon One-Eyed Beast. Then, with a flick to its forehead, the Phantom Demon One-Eyed Beast went to sleep peacefully.

Yue Guan turned to Uchiha Huan, still atop the canopy a hundred meters away. "Xiao Huan, you can come over now."

"Old Chrysanthemum, didn't you forget something?"

Yue Guan smiled. "I didn't mind when you used to call me Old Chrysanthemum. What should you call me now?"

"Little Chrysanthemum?"

"..."

Play was play, but business was business.

In the end, Yue Guan still brought Uchiha Huan before the Phantom Demon One-Eyed Beast.

"Take it. Stab it in the eye."

Uchiha Huan took the dagger Yue Guan handed him and drove it directly into the Phantom Demon One-Eyed Beast's eyeball.

The next moment, a bright yellow Spirit Ring appeared.

Uchiha Huan's Sharingan had remained active the entire time. From the Spirit Ring's formation to the path of its Soul Power flow, he saw everything clearly.

Uchiha Huan suddenly realized that the obscure patterns on a Spirit Ring resembled the effects created by hand seals when releasing ninjutsu.

The patterns on Spirit Rings and ninjutsu hand seals were both energy circuits for transmitting energy.

"Absorb it. If it isn't absorbed within two hours, it'll naturally dissipate."

Only then did Uchiha Huan remember the important matter. He immediately sat down cross-legged.

Guided by Uchiha Huan, the energy within the Spirit Ring immediately surged into his body.

At the same time, Uchiha Huan discovered that the energy was constructing a Soul Power circuit within him.

Once this Soul Power circuit was completed, the spirit skill would be formed as well.

The obscure patterns immediately surfaced in Uchiha Huan's mind. He began drawing on the Spirit Ring's energy and constructing the energy circuit himself.

As he continuously built the circuit, Uchiha Huan also learned the effect of the spirit skill he had obtained.

Phantom Demon Evil Shadow could use Mental Power to create replicas of himself or his enemies. The stronger his Mental Power, the closer the replica's strength would be to that of the original. As long as his Mental Power was sufficient, he could create multiple replicas.

Finally, after an hour of absorption, Uchiha Huan finished absorbing the Spirit Ring.

"Mm, it seems a four-hundred-and-fifty-year Spirit Ring put no pressure on you at all." Yue Guan looked at Uchiha Huan with satisfaction. "What level are you?"

Uchiha Huan sensed it. "Level 12."

"How's the spirit skill?"

Uchiha Huan narrowed his eyes, and Yue Guan's figure condensed before him.

Yue Guan revealed a surprised expression. When his senses swept over the replica, he discovered that the aura of the copy before him was almost identical to his own aura when he had been level 12.

"Your spirit skill created this?"

"That's right. I can create a replica no stronger than my own level. It can be an enemy or myself."

"How long can it last?"

"It is created entirely from Mental Power, so it can exist indefinitely. As long as my Mental Power does not run dry, it can exist forever."

Uchiha Huan realized that his first spirit skill was essentially an enhanced Multiple Shadow Clone Technique.

And with his current Mental Power, even a level 99 Peerless Douluo might not possess more Mental Power than him.

As long as his Mental Power was sufficient, his clones could unleash strength equal to his original body.

Most importantly, the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique would be dispelled by even the slightest attack, while his Phantom Demon Evil Shadow clones would only be dispelled by lethal attacks.

However, he could release at most ten Shadow Clones. Any more, and the information and memories fed back to him would burst his head.

What a pity. His Genjutsu skills were truly mediocre.

After the Uchiha Clan's eyes evolved into Mangekyo Sharingan, they were divided into Straight Tomoe and Curved Tomoe. In the original work, Uchiha Madara had once commented that Sasuke's eyes possessed Straight Tomoe just like his own.

Most Mangekyo Sharingan possessed Curved Tomoe traits, meaning they were exceptionally skilled at Genjutsu.

Straight Tomoe, on the other hand, was relatively rare. Its Genjutsu enhancement was weaker, but it was filled with aggression.

For instance, Uchiha Madara's eye abilities were Limbo: Border Jail and reduced Susanoo consumption. (Uchiha Madara never displayed his Mangekyo abilities in the original work. Limbo: Border Jail was a skill he used after activating the Rinnegan, so this setting makes Limbo: Border Jail his Mangekyo ability.)

Uchiha Huan's eyes also possessed Straight Tomoe, making their abilities offensive.

Of course, the weaker Genjutsu enhancement of Straight Tomoe Mangekyo Sharingan was only relative within the Uchiha Clan.

For ninjas outside the Uchiha Clan, the Mangekyo Sharingan was still an irresistible power.

Uchiha Huan currently possessed several Genjutsu techniques that were extremely common within the Uchiha Clan.

"What a pity. Your First Spirit Skill isn't an offensive type, so it won't improve your strength much."

Uchiha Huan glanced at Yue Guan. Did he even hear himself?

Not much improvement!? In Uchiha Huan's eyes, the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique was a divine skill that could accelerate cultivation.

"Old Chrysanthemum, want to spar?"

"Heh... you?"

Uchiha Huan's Mangekyo Sharingan abruptly opened. Genjutsu: Shackling Stakes Technique!
