Chapter 29 - Chapter 29: Racing Against Time

'Rat—Tiger—Dog—Ox—Rabbit—Tiger, Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!'

Qingming's hands danced gracefully, like a butterfly flitting through flowers, forming six hand seals in rapid succession. He then took a deep breath and forcefully exhaled.

In the next moment, a series of fireballs erupted from his mouth, resembling the seeds of a balsam flower, shooting toward seven or eight trees ahead.

'Sharingan!'

With a mere thought, Qingming activated his Sharingan.

In an instant, his pupils transformed into a blood-red hue, with a single black tomoe, dark as ink, appearing within, spinning rapidly like a windmill.

Utilizing the powerful insight provided by the Sharingan, Qingming controlled the fireballs, guiding them in a crisscrossing pattern toward the different trees.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions echoed through the air.

The flames, after a seemingly chaotic dance, accurately struck several trees, creating a stunning visual display.

This spectacle was not a mere display of skill by Qingming; it was a crucial aspect of the technique itself—merging illusion with reality, employing dazzling attacks to conceal true intent and deliver a fatal blow to the opponent.

Furthermore, in a more extreme application, this technique could be combined with shuriken for a more lethal effect.

With this thought, Qingming formed seals once more. As he unleashed his ninjutsu, he swiftly reached for several shuriken and hurled them forward.

The flames struck the trees again, but what moved even faster were the shuriken hidden within the fiery display.

The shuriken, glowing red from the intense heat, pierced through the tree trunks, instantly charring the surrounding bark black.

One could only imagine how such an attack would fare against a human body; a mere touch would likely lead to severe injury or even death.

Who said Fire Style couldn't kill?

The combination of physical and magical attacks meant that anyone hit by this would certainly suffer.

The only downside was that this method of attack was extremely wasteful when it came to shuriken.

Essentially, one shuriken was wasted each time, with no chance of recovery.

However, the capacity of his ninja tool pouch was limited.

Qingming couldn't carry too many shuriken with him at all times, so he couldn't afford to use this tactic frivolously unless absolutely necessary.

Pulling his thoughts back, Qingming dismissed any further considerations and focused on opening his proficiency panel.

In the next moment, a familiar pale blue light curtain appeared:

[Name: Uchiha Qingming

Age: 11 years

Physique: 7 Spirit: 9 Chakra: 1208 (3018→3210)

Bloodline: Sharingan · Single Tomoe (30/1000) → (50/1000)

Skills: Chakra Refinement Technique: lv3 (322/1000) → lv3 (346/1000)

Fire Style · Great Fireball Technique: lv1 (50/200)

*Fire Style · Phoenix Sage Fire Technique: lv1 (5/200)

*Fire Style · Dragon Fire Technique: lv1 (1/200)

*Genjutsu · Kagekōkan Technique: lv1 (1/200)

*Body Flicker Technique: lv1 (10/200)

Mind Reflection Technique: lv3 (683/1000)

Ninja Tool Throwing: lv3 (1/1000) → lv3 (60/1000)

Chakra Control: lv3 (102/1000)

Body Replacement Technique: lv3 (0/0)

Basic Taijutsu: lv3 (0/0)]

At this point, ten days had passed since he awakened his Sharingan, and three days since he began training in the 'Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique.'

Thanks to mastering the 'Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique' early on, his progress in learning 'Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique' was remarkably swift.

Due to the interconnected nature of the two ninjutsu, after repeating the technique about thirty times, he had accumulated one hundred proficiency points, successfully advancing from lv0 to lv1.

This process consumed approximately 2500 chakra points.

Originally, it required 3000 points, but his lv3 (102/1000) 'Chakra Control' allowed him to save 15.5% of his chakra.

So, it amounted to 2500 points.

Next up was the 'Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique.'

Having learned both the 'Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique' and 'Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique,' Qingming gained a deeper understanding of Fire Style techniques.

During this process, he subconsciously grasped some fundamentals regarding the transformation and properties of fire attribute chakra.

Every Fire Style ninjutsu relies on these two aspects.

Thus, when Qingming trained in the 'Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique,' he was able to make significant progress with minimal effort.

In about forty attempts, he amassed one hundred proficiency points and successfully mastered it.

During this training, after accounting for the chakra saved by 'Chakra Control,' he expended around 3000 chakra points.

In total, these two techniques consumed approximately 5500 chakra points.

In the three days, he had a total of around 10,000 chakra points available for use.

Thus, the remaining chakra was dedicated to practicing the 'Genjutsu · Kagekōkan Technique' and 'Body Flicker Technique.'

The former was tailored specifically for the Sharingan, making it relatively easy for Qingming to learn; he successfully mastered it after about twenty repetitions, using just over 1000 chakra points.

During this period, Qingming noticed that the proficiency growth rate of his Sharingan had accelerated.

He began to analyze and test the underlying key factors.

Ultimately, through enhanced control of the 'Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique' and 'Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique,' Qingming discovered the reason.

The principle was quite simple: practice makes perfect.

The more intensively the Sharingan was used, the faster the proficiency accumulated.

How much faster, exactly?

Qingming estimated it was roughly double the rate of merely keeping his eyes open for an extended period.

Unfortunately, this method consumed chakra excessively; on average, it took about 1000 chakra points to increase proficiency by one point.

Although this was less than the 1700 points required for 'Mind Reflection Technique,' it was still significantly more than the 300 points needed for simply letting time pass.

Given his current chakra capacity, he simply could not sustain such consumption.

Perhaps when his chakra reserves were more abundant, he could afford this luxurious method to boost his Sharingan proficiency.

This also meant that his 'Chakra Refinement Technique' level needed to keep pace.

With his current physique and spirit attributes, as long as the level of 'Chakra Refinement Technique' increased, the amount of chakra he could utilize daily would surely increase.

At that point, he could consider this method to grind proficiency.

Moreover, this approach had the added benefit of simultaneously boosting the proficiency of the skills paired with it.

Wiping the corner of his mouth, Qingming pulled his focus back and directed it towards the 'Body Flicker Technique.'

Being only a D-rank ninjutsu, it required just thirty chakra points to perform once, making it quite easy for Qingming to master.

However, upon reaching lv1, the minimum chakra consumption had already increased to fifty points.

Furthermore, if he wished to move over a longer distance, the chakra cost would increase even further.

Nevertheless, while grinding proficiency, Qingming certainly wouldn't take that route.

To him, gaining proficiency was all that mattered; beyond that, using extra chakra was wasteful.

Thud

A faint sound of footsteps approached.

Qingming's ears perked up, and he swiftly completed his hand seals. Opening his mouth, he unleashed a massive fireball.

The fireball shot out rapidly, crashing between several trees ahead, followed by a thunderous explosion as the roaring flames instantly engulfed everything around.
