Chapter Summaries

Qian stopped advancing his Sharingan Evolution Progress to avoid an imbalance between spirit and body, and redirected his training toward body enhancement. His Sage Mode reached lv9, greatly improving its speed, stealth, and combat boosts, though entering it without stored Natural Energy still took about three minutes.

• Qian saw that his Sharingan Evolution Progress was near its critical point and decided to devote the time he spent casting the Mind Reflection Technique to Pinnacle of Body instead.
• Qian released his shadow clones and absorbed their memories, learning that his Sage Mode had advanced to lv9.
• Qian tested the new Sage Mode and found he could enter it almost instantly and silently when Natural Energy was already stored in his Abdominal Sealing Space.
• Qian tested entering Sage Mode without stored Natural Energy and needed about three minutes to absorb and fuse Natural Energy into Sage Art Chakra.
• Qian concluded that reaching lv10 might let him enter Sage Mode at will like Hashirama Senju, then prepared to return to Moon Island and begin testing his body-enhancement speed.

Qian tested the effects and costs of training with his newly advanced lv9 Sage Mode, finding that the added Body Enhancement could bring his transformation forward by a month. After calculating that his Chakra reserves could handle the increased training costs in the short term, he went to rest, but unexpected news woke him later that night.

• Qian trained his body for an extended period, replacing six hours of Sharingan training with Pinnacle of Body practice.
• Qian recalled his shadow clones, absorbed their Cultivation Experience, and calculated that his daily Sage Mode expenditure had fallen while his Body Enhancement costs had risen.
• Qian estimated that his body would reach its transformation point by mid-November and that Sage Mode could reach lv10 within a month.
• Qian went to sleep, but a sudden piece of news woke him in the latter half of the night.

After learning that Kirigakure had located the revived Three-Tails, Qian raced to the Land of Water and captured it before the Mist Anbu could reach it. The Anbu arrived at the lakebed too late and realized that an unknown ninja had taken the beast away using what might have been space-time ninjutsu.

• Qian received a report from his Wood Clone that Kirigakure had confirmed the Three-Tails’ revival and sent Anbu squads to find it.
• Qian used the Flying Thunder God Technique to reach the Land of Water, followed the Anbu’s search area, and found the Three-Tails asleep beneath a lake with his Byakugan.
• Qian concealed himself with Ame no Minaka, caught the Three-Tails’ gaze, and immobilized it with Genjutsu: Sharingan.
• Qian wrapped the Three-Tails in Chakra and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport away with it.
• The Mist Anbu reached the empty lakebed, sensed that the Three-Tails had been taken, and suspected the intruder had used space-time ninjutsu.

Qian teleported the Three-Tails far from its hiding place, sealed it inside a Metal Sphere, and left for Moon Island. Obito Uchiha arrived soon afterward, but Qian had already escaped.

• Qian used the Flying Thunder God Technique to transport the Three-Tails several dozen kilometers away from the lake.
• Qian activated the All Things of the Universe Sealing on a Metal Sphere and sealed the Three-Tails while reinforcing his genjutsu with the Sharingan.
• The Three-Tails roared angrily at Qian and demanded a fair fight, but Qian ignored it and withdrew his Spiritual Power from the Sealing Space.
• After recovering some Chakra, Qian teleported to Moon Island using the Flying Thunder God Technique.
• Obito Uchiha arrived at the forest with help from Black Zetsu and the White Zetsu, but Qian had already left.

Obito Uchiha investigated the Three-Tails’ disappearance and began suspecting Qian, while Qian used the sealed beast to replenish his chakra. The chapter left Qian sending a new wood clone to infiltrate Kirigakure and gather intelligence.

• Obito Uchiha found traces of the Three-Tails in the forest, concluded a person had transported it, and returned to Kirigakure to investigate.
• Qian judged that his misleading clues would delay Kirigakure’s investigation, but considered that Obito Uchiha and Namikaze Minato might eventually suspect him.
• Qian extracted chakra from the Three-Tails until the beast was weakened, then calculated that he could safely take 1.5 million chakra points from it each day.
• Qian created a replacement wood clone and ordered it to infiltrate Kirigakure and continue gathering intelligence.

Qian captured the Three-Tails and continued training while Kirigakure investigated its disappearance and suspected Uchiha ninjas. After a month, his training brought his body to the critical point of transformation, while the investigation and Obito Uchiha’s suspicions had caused him little trouble.

• Qian confirmed the Three-Tails was sealed inside the Metal Sphere and resumed training.
• Obito Uchiha visited Qian’s Shadow Clone in Konoha and asked whether Qian had captured the Three-Tails, but the Clone denied it.
• Qian returned to training on Moon Island rather than send another Shadow Clone to the village.
• Qian returned to Konoha and noticed Anbu searching for Kirigakure spies, which he suspected was connected to the missing Three-Tails.
• Kirigakure expanded its investigation to Uchiha ninjas with Three-Tomoe Sharingan, including Qian, but the search barely affected him.
• After a month of training, Qian strengthened his body to the critical point of transformation.

Uchiha Qian broke through the physical limit and transformed his body, increasing his Physical Constitution to 33. He tested the resulting gains and found his chakra recovery had improved substantially, leaving him poised to continue evolving his Sharingan.

• Uchiha Qian completed his training and used Human Authority to guide his cells toward evolution until the invisible shackle on his body shattered.
• Uchiha Qian absorbed the warm current that followed, completing his transformation and raising his Physical Constitution from 32 to 33.
• Uchiha Qian observed that the transformation eased the strain on his body and brought his Sharingan evolution progress to 59999/100000.
• Uchiha Qian tested his potential and estimated that his Theoretical Chakra Limit had increased by about six million points.
• Uchiha Qian measured his natural chakra recovery and found he could now recover 27.9 million chakra points per day, 3.5 million more than before.

Qian advanced his Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan’s evolution and discovered that his growing Spiritual Power was putting pressure on his body. He decided to prioritize strengthening his body before pursuing further Sharingan evolution, confident that his Chakra reserves and incoming supply could cover the training costs.

• Qian used the Mind Reflection Technique to raise his Sharingan Evolution Progress to 60000/100000, increasing his Spiritual Power from 34 to 35 points.
• Qian found that the improvement added 4.5 million points to his Theoretical Chakra Limit and increased his daily Chakra recovery by 2.2 million points.
• After waking the next morning, Qian sensed that his Spiritual Power was noticeably pressuring his body and recognized that the gap between his attributes was already causing an imbalance.
• Qian decided to focus on strengthening his body until his Basic Attributes increased again, then resume raising his Sharingan Evolution Progress.
• Qian calculated that his added Chakra, the Three-Tails’ daily contribution, and the expected savings from perfecting Sage Mode would support his training costs.

Qian perfected Sage Mode, allowing him to enter it instantly without chakra fluctuations and maintain it with almost no chakra consumption. After adjusting his shadow-clone training and continuing to practice, he advanced Chakra Control to lv9 and discovered that it reduced his chakra consumption by about ten percent.

• Qian noticed that his increased Physical Constitution made Body Enhancement easier, though it still consumed chakra.
• After absorbing his shadow clones’ training experience, Qian advanced Sage Mode and achieved the perfect form he had envisioned.
• Qian found that perfect Sage Mode no longer steadily consumed Sage Art Chakra and had greatly improved his Chakra Control proficiency.
• Qian decided to have three hundred shadow clones gather Natural Energy and three hundred develop Kekkei Mōra, then resumed training.
• Three days later, Qian advanced Chakra Control to lv9 and found that it reduced his chakra consumption by about ten percent.

Qian calculated that his training could balance his spiritual and physical growth, then took a short New Year break before returning to intensive cultivation. On March tenth, his body reached the critical point of transformation, and after absorbing his clones’ memories, he continued developing Kekkei Mōra.

• Qian estimated that full-speed Body Enhancement would bring his next transformation within about three and a half months, and he resumed training with enough chakra to sustain it.
• After a month and a half of training, Qian attended the Uchiha clan meeting, celebrated New Year in the village, and traveled around the Ninja World during his break.
• Qian heard that the daimyo of the Land of Fire planned to form a Guardian Ninja team and saw Sarutobi Asuma among those involved, but he dismissed the effort as unimportant.
• Qian returned to Moon Island and trained for another two months, then continued for a week when his body had not transformed by early March.
• On March tenth, Qian sensed that his body had reached its transformation limit and absorbed the memories and Cultivation Experience of his shadow clones.
• Qian recalled that he had raised the number of shadow clones developing Kekkei Mōra to four hundred, increasing daily chakra use to 3.2 million points.

Qian broke through a limit in his body and began its transformation, but the process unexpectedly triggered his Byakugan to evolve. Fearing the resulting increase in his Spiritual attribute would unbalance his spirit and body, he slowed the Byakugan's evolution until his transformation could finish.

• Qian spent nearly ten hours guiding Yang Release Chakra through his cells and broke through his body's limits.
• As his body began transforming, Qian felt his Byakugan break free of its seal and start evolving.
• Qian realized the Byakugan's evolution could raise his Spiritual attribute before his Physical Constitution increased, risking an imbalance.
• Qian controlled the chakra entering his Byakugan more gently and successfully slowed its evolution.

At sixteen, Qian completed his physical transformation and sealed away part of his Spiritual Power to keep it from outpacing his body. He adjusted to the weakened power while reviewing his gains and continued feeding chakra into his Byakugan, which was on the verge of evolving.

• Qian's Physical Constitution rose from 33 to 34, while his Byakugan's evolution progress reached 49999/50000.
• Qian used the Spirit Transformation Technique and Lock Heart Soul Contract Instant Body Seal to reduce his Spiritual Power by twenty to thirty percent.
• After returning to his body, Qian found that uncontrolled chakra had surged into his Byakugan but had not yet completed its evolution.
• Qian reviewed his increased Chakra Limit, skill and bloodline progress, and noted that he had turned sixteen.
• Qian focused on controlling his chakra and directed a large amount into his Byakugan to prompt its evolution.

Qian completed another evolution of the Byakugan at his glabella and tested its improved vision, chakra absorption, and control over gravity. He concluded that reaching the Tenseigan would still be extremely difficult.

• Qian continued pouring chakra into the Byakugan, drawing on the Glabella Pocket Dimension when his reserves ran low.
• At midnight, Qian's Byakugan finished evolving, releasing chakra that made small stones float around him.
• Qian found that his Byakugan's see-through range had increased to three kilometers and that he could perceive chakra and meridians in greater detail.
• Qian tested the Byakugan's chakra absorption and found that it worked faster and over a greater distance without requiring contact.
• Qian lifted a huge rock, stopped it in midair, and launched it into trees, estimating that his gravity control had increased to about one thousand tons.
• Qian compared his ability with the Tenseigan's planetary power and realized that the final evolution would be difficult.

Qian confirmed that evolving his Byakugan had increased his Spiritual attribute, putting more strain on his body, and planned tests to guide his training. When the Second Cavity proved too mild for effective body training, he found a harsher cavern deeper in the volcano and prepared it as his new training site.

• Qian saw that his Spiritual attribute had risen from 35 to 36 after his Byakugan evolved, increasing the gap with his Physical Constitution and forcing him to delay evolving his Sharingan.
• The next morning, Qian checked Moon Island with his Byakugan, assigned seven hundred shadow clones to their tasks, and teleported into the volcano to test his abilities.
• Qian found that training in the Second Cavity no longer provided enough pressure, so he used the Flying Thunder God Technique and Earth Release to reach a deeper cavern.
• Qian built a suspended Cross Bridge and circular platform in the hotter, higher-pressure cavern, choosing it as his new training site.

Qian tested how his latest physical and spiritual improvements affected Byakugan evolution, his theoretical chakra limit, and his chakra recovery speed. He planned to focus on raising his Physical Constitution while keeping Byakugan evolution below the point that would further widen the gap between his body and spirit.

• Qian trained in Sage Mode at his chosen site, using Pinnacle of Body while monitoring his Byakugan’s evolution.
• After an hour, Qian found his Byakugan had gained roughly six Evolution Progress, an estimated hundred points per day and less than before.
• Qian released his Multiple Shadow Clones, absorbed their chakra, Natural Energy, and training memories, then tested his chakra limit and recovery speed.
• Qian calculated that his Physical Constitution and Spirit gains had increased his Theoretical Chakra Limit by roughly thirteen million points.
• Qian measured his natural chakra recovery at 259,722 points in ten minutes, equivalent to 37.4 million usable chakra per day and a 7.3 million-point increase.
• Qian decided to continue round-the-clock Pinnacle of Body training to raise his Physical Constitution and to stop Byakugan stimulation once its Evolution Progress reached around ten thousand points.

Qian measured the increased chakra cost and efficiency of his Body Enhancement, estimating his next Body Transformation for late August or early September. Three months later, he halted Byakugan evolution to avoid another unwanted breakthrough and resumed training with more shadow clones.

• Qian trained for a week after his Body Transformation and found that daily Body Enhancement required forty-two million chakra, with efficiency up roughly ten to twenty percent.
• Qian estimated that his next Body Transformation would occur in late August or early September and resumed his regular training.
• By mid-June, Qian's Byakugan Evolution Progress had reached 9500/100000, close to a threshold he feared would raise his Spirit attribute.
• Qian decided to pause Byakugan evolution so it would not advance alongside his next Body Transformation.
• Qian created eight hundred shadow clones, arranged their cultivation tasks, and returned to the Volcano to train.

After improving his Body Enhancement efficiency, Qian reached the limit of his physical growth and completed another transformation. He raised his Physical Constitution to 35 and confirmed that his body could withstand the one-point gap with his Spirit attribute.

• Qian estimated that pausing his Byakugan’s evolution would save seven million chakra points per day and leave him with a larger reserve for future cultivation.
• Qian trained for a month and a week until he sensed that his body had reached its current growth limit.
• Qian dismissed his shadow clones, absorbed their chakra, Natural Energy, and cultivation memories, then prepared for a breakthrough.
• Qian used Human Authority and the Mystical Palm Technique for more than ten hours, broke through his physical limit, and began transforming.
• Qian checked the Proficiency Panel and saw his Physical Constitution rise from 34 to 35.
• Qian released the Spiritual Power sealed in his soul and confirmed that his body could withstand the one-point gap with his Spirit.

Qian reviewed the gains from his latest body transformation and tested its effects on his theoretical chakra limit and natural chakra recovery. He ended with a much higher daily recovery rate but was unsure whether the increase would cover the chakra needed for future body enhancement.

• Qian reviewed his increased chakra limit and the progress of his Kekkei Genkai, noting that Lava Release, Ice Release, and Storm Release were nearing advancement.
• Qian saw that his Chakra Refining Technique was less than four hundred proficiency points from leveling up, while his Byakugan remained below its next minor checkpoint.
• Qian went to sleep without testing his natural chakra recovery, then woke early and went to the clearing to measure the transformation's effects.
• Qian estimated that the transformation had raised his Theoretical Chakra Limit by eleven million points.
• Qian measured his natural recovery at 301,389 chakra points in ten minutes, equivalent to 43.4 million points per day, and considered whether this would meet his future training needs.

Qian tested the results of his body transformation and estimated that his next transformation would take about five months, though future advancements in his Kekkei Genkai could shorten the wait. After weeks of training, his Chakra Refining Technique advanced to lv8, increasing both his chakra recovery and the rate at which his Chakra Limit grew.

• Qian found that his enhanced body needed forty-three million chakra points for efficient training and improved his Body Enhancement speed by roughly twenty percent.
• After further training on Moon Island, Qian estimated that his next Body Transformation would arrive by early February, about five months later.
• Qian continued training for six days until an insight prompted him to teleport out of the volcano and examine his progress.
• Qian saw that his Chakra Refining Technique had advanced from lv7 to lv8 and tested its new passive circulation.
• Qian found that the technique now restored about 7,000 chakra per hour and raised his Chakra Limit by about 1,000 points per hour.

Qian continued training with shadow clones for two months until his Ice Release Kekkei Genkai advanced. After assessing the improvement to his aptitude, he resumed preparing for his body's transformation and anticipated Storm Release advancing next.

• Qian released his shadow clones, absorbed their memories and cultivation experience, and began another training round.
• Over two months, Qian repeated his training until he sensed that a Kekkei Genkai was about to advance.
• Qian focused his chakra into Ice Release, triggering an evolution that spread ice and spikes across the uninhabited island.
• Qian dispersed the ice with his improved Ice Release control and confirmed that its Evolution Progress had reached (1/10000).
• Qian sensed that the advancement would let him reach his body's transformation point about ten days earlier and expected Storm Release to advance before the transformation was complete.
