Chapter 132 - Chapter 132: Level Up

Ten minutes later.

Seimei arrived at his destination. Entering the cave, he saw three figures facing him—his three shadow clones.

As for the fourth one, it had already dispelled the jutsu in order to transmit information to him.

Seimei nodded at the three and asked, "How is your chakra now?"

"Two thousand one, two thousand, two thousand three."

The three shadow clones answered one after another.

"A bit low..."

Seimei murmured, frowning, "Then you should dispel the jutsu first!"

"Mm."

The three shadow clones responded without further ado and directly dispelled the Shadow Clone Technique.

Immediately, over ninety percent of the chakra from the three shadow clones surged into Seimei's body through a faint connection, instantly filling his chakra to the brim.

At the same time, the memories of the three also surfaced in Seimei's mind.

Seimei quickly browsed through their memories, confirming nothing was missed, and then formed hand seals again, performing the Shadow Clone Technique.

Poof, poof, poof~

With a puff of chakra smoke, four figures identical to Seimei appeared on the scene—his newly created four shadow clones.

Thanks to the overflowing chakra within him, each of these four shadow clones received over four thousand chakra points.

After 'refreshing' the shadow clones' state, Seimei sent them away.

Next, they would continue their capture mission, while he himself would begin his cultivation.

However, before cultivating, he first needed to replenish his chakra.

With this in mind, Seimei went directly to the unconscious Kumo-nin and Iwa-nin, formed hand seals, and performed the Chakra Absorption Technique.

In less than half a minute, he absorbed the chakra from five people, raising his own chakra from over four thousand points to over twenty thousand points.

Seimei nodded in satisfaction, then casually found a spot, sat down cross-legged, and began practicing the Reflection Heart Technique.

Once, twice, thrice...

One minute, two minutes, three minutes...

Soon, an hour passed.

Seimei had also consecutively cast the Reflection Heart Technique sixty times, raising its proficiency from lv6 (9895/10000) to lv6 (9955/10000).

Seeing the Reflection Heart Technique getting closer and closer to lv7, Seimei felt a surge of excitement.

However, he suppressed the urge to continue cultivating.

Currently, the remaining chakra in his body was only half of its full capacity. With the situation uncertain, he didn't want to deplete all his chakra.

Thinking this, Seimei got up and went to the five Kumo-nin and Iwa-nin again, performing the Chakra Absorption Technique just like before.

However, this time he wasn't absorbing chakra, as there was none left in their bodies. This time, he was absorbing their mental and physical energy.

After replenishing his chakra once more, Seimei entered a cultivation state again.

Soon, over half an hour passed.

When Seimei cast the Reflection Heart Technique for the forty-fifth time, a sudden realization dawned upon him.

He instantly knew that his Reflection Heart Technique had leveled up.

"Status!"

With a thought, Seimei opened the proficiency panel.

The next moment, the familiar light blue screen appeared.

"It really increased by one point!"

Looking at the 'Spirit' attribute on the panel, which had changed from 14 to 15, Seimei murmured.

Just now, when the Reflection Heart Technique leveled up from lv6 to lv7, he felt his mental power strengthen, and he guessed that it might be due to an increase in the 'Spirit' attribute.

Now, it seemed he was right.

Back then, when his Reflection Heart Technique leveled up from lv5 to lv6, the 'Spirit' attribute also increased by one point.

Unexpectedly, it increased again this time.

"This is truly an unexpected surprise!"

Muttering to himself, Seimei began to carefully experience the changes brought about by this increase in the Spirit attribute.

A moment later, he opened his eyes.

A mixed expression of joy and worry appeared on his face.

The joy stemmed from the fact that this increase in the 'Spirit' attribute could likely raise his chakra limit by another six thousand points or so.

In other words, in the near future, his chakra limit would reach thirty-five thousand points.

Furthermore, there was the matter of chakra recovery speed...

The 'Spirit' attribute increasing from 14 to 15 would roughly allow him to recover an additional four thousand chakra points daily.

That is, from the original seventeen thousand points to the current twenty-one thousand points.

These were all reasons to be happy, but there was also cause for concern.

That was, with this increase in the 'Spirit' attribute, the gap between his 'Spirit' and 'Physique' had widened further.

Last time, after his Sharingan evolved into the Three Tomoe, his 'Spirit' attribute was already three points higher than his 'Physique' attribute.

Now, with another increase, this gap had expanded to four points.

Moreover...

It was foreseeable that his Sharingan would evolve again soon, and at that time, the 'Spirit' attribute would surge, further widening this gap.

And the consequences of a large disparity between the physical body and the spirit were already demonstrated by Uchiha Itachi.

He had awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan too early, resulting in overly powerful mental energy that exerted immense pressure on his physical body, ultimately triggering a genetic disease.

Seimei didn't want to end up like him, relying on medication to alleviate his illness.

Although not every ninja with a bloodline limit would develop a 'bloodline disease', it was certain that the more talented one was, the easier it was to fall ill.

Seimei glanced at the current evolution progress of his Sharingan - (5115/10000)!

And as he had expected, after the Reflection Heart Technique leveled up from lv6 to lv7, its boosting effect on the Sharingan had once again increased.

Now, each practice session could grant his Sharingan one point of evolution progress.

Thus, he only needed to gain less than five thousand proficiency points to evolve his Sharingan into the Mangekyo Sharingan.

And five thousand proficiency points only required eighty thousand chakra points.

Even without additional chakra sources, relying solely on the twenty-one thousand chakra points he could recover daily, Seimei could accumulate this amount of chakra within forty days.

And if there was an external chakra supply, this time would be even shorter.

Based on these calculations, he was definitely considered a genius. And geniuses were at risk of developing the disease. Seimei didn't want to gamble on that.

Therefore, increasing his 'Physique' attribute was an urgent matter.
