After Ino concentrated her efforts with a "let's give it a try" attitude, she found her consciousness becoming more focused than usual. Her mind was clear and cool, and her perception of the outside world was unprecedentedly clear. She could clearly feel everything.
What's going on?
How did I enter this state?
Could it be because Naruto just put his hand on my shoulder? How did he do it? This is like a miracle!
"Don't get distracted, look ahead, and focus on the target you want to hit," Naruto's voice echoed again.
"Okay."
Ino responded softly, retracting her thoughts and staring at the target she wanted to hit.
Under such clear perception, she could easily grasp the sense of distance and feel the power burst from her own muscle operation. As long as she could clearly feel the distance and the power she had, coupled with her previous cultivation accumulation, hitting the bullseye was too simple!
"Whoosh!"
The kunai in her hand drew a perfect arc and accurately hit the bullseye in front. At the moment when Ino threw out the kunai, she also exited that state.
Although she had already exited, Ino was still imagining the feeling just now. That feeling of being able to perceive all details was simply too great. As long as she could fully control it, she could easily do many things that were difficult to do.
"How about it, did you feel it?"
Naruto asked with a smile.
"Okay."
Ino nodded her head, but her answer was a bit absent-minded, obviously still reflecting that special feeling.
"The next steps are quite straightforward – all you need to do is enter the spiritual awareness state on your own."
Naruto said with a smile.
"Okay."
Ino nodded again, but this time she quickly came back to her senses and looked at Naruto and asked: "Spiritual perception? What is that state, how did you do it? I have never heard of it before."
"The so-called spiritual perception state is a state where your own perception is magnified to the extreme. In the spiritual perception state, you can maximize your control over your own perception."
Naruto explained with his eyes gradually becoming serious and said earnestly: "However, your energy is not strong now and cannot be used for a long time or multiple times. If you use too much, you will have side effects such as dizziness, drowsiness, and confusion."
"But you don't have to worry too much. This state is similar to mental overwork. As long as you don't overdraw too seriously, you can recover in a short rest."
The spiritual perception state is something Naruto learned on the Teyvat continent. It is very basic content. If placed in a textbook, it is probably equivalent to single-digit addition and subtraction basic things... too basic...
If you want to cultivate elemental power, you must be able to perceive the existence of elemental power. Ordinary people cannot perceive elemental power. But Naruto is not an ordinary person. He can clearly feel the elements of Teyvat because the elements of the Teyvat world are far more active than those of Shinobi World, so the threshold for cultivation is much lower.
But just being able to perceive is not enough. Naruto needs a clearer, more precise awareness before he can further absorb elemental power for cultivation. So, he diligently follows Morax's guidance and eventually achieves an advanced level of spiritual perception.
In the spiritual perception state, Naruto gains better control of his senses for cultivation. However, in Teyvat, this state isn't particularly useful. Because naturally gifted individuals effortlessly perceive and absorb elements through instinct.
Ordinary people can't learn it, special races also have their own unique cultivation methods. Therefore, Naruto has never felt complacent or proud because he developed a spiritual perception state. This is just a simple start to cultivation.
"Spiritual perception state?"
Ino murmured to herself and then looked at Naruto excitedly and asked: "There's even this trick? How did you think about it? How did you develop it? It's simply too cool! Spiritual Perception State... really super cool!"
"Probably... because of loneliness."
Naruto sighed in response.
"Loneliness?"
Ino was puzzled.
"Yes, because I was rejected by others, despised by others, or even isolated by others. I never had many friends. In this lonely state, I kept examining myself and then recognized myself. Unconsciously developed a spiritual perception state." Naruto continued.
His eyes were somewhat lonely but soon showed a smug smile and said: "This is a state that I have developed with great effort. After you learn it, you must not teach others casually."
"Okay okay! You can rest assured!"
Ino nodded vigorously and said: "Then... how should I continue to practice next? Can I enter the spiritual perception state again by practicing like just now?"
"How is it possible?"
Naruto denied it in one bite, shrugged his shoulders, and said with a smile: "Just now, I merged my special chakra into your body and operated it in a special way, so you can open the spiritual perception state. If you can enter it just by concentrating, you would have learned it a long time ago."
"Oh, what should I do then?"
Ino asked.
"It's also very simple. Use your chakra according to the operation route I just used."
Naruto said.
Using chakra is definitely not the same as using elemental energy. After all, these two energies are not the same in nature. The intensity of chakra is much lower than that of elemental power, and the side effects of using it are also much greater.
But this does not mean that it cannot be used. Because when Naruto first learned the spiritual perception state in Teyvat time, he did not have elemental power. First, he acquired spiritual perception, and then, by elevating it to a higher level, he cultivated elemental power.
During that moment, Naruto used chakra to access the state of spiritual perception. His chakra utilization was flawless, and he possessed absolute clarity of purpose.
The spiritual perception used with chakra is a state with large side effects but also obvious effects. Using elemental power does not have much impact on the effect. The main thing is to greatly reduce side effects or say the consumption of physical and mental energy for oneself.
Naruto doesn't need to deliberately open up spiritual perception now because this is his passive state and does not need to be actively triggered. Most of the strong people on the Teyvat continent are also like this.
For example, the immortal who can apper quickly at any time by calling his real name, does he have to pay attention with maximum energy every moment? No, it's not necessary. The sensory amplification ability of the spiritual perception state is just a passive ability for these immortals, not something active, they don't need to deliberately maintain it.
"Do you remember that feeling?"
Naruto confirmed and asked.
"Yes, I still remember it clearly."
Ino nodded slightly.
"Your energy is not strong enough now. This state can last up to half a minute at most. Don't use too much, otherwise, you will easily fall into a coma due to mental exhaustion." Naruto continued to remind her.
"I know."
