Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: Sage Body

"System, what does the growth of the sage body relate to? How should I grow my sage body?" Jin asked in his heart, with a desire to explore in his tone.

After a moment, the system's answer sounded in his mind:

[Host, the growth of the Sage Body is related to many factors, the most important of which is aptitude. At the beginning, Ashura inherited the Sage Body of the Sage of Six Paths, forming the Senju clan, while Indra inherited the Sage Eyes of the Sage of Six Paths, forming the Uchiha clan. The closer the bloodline is to the Sage of Six Paths, the more qualified one is to open and strengthen the Sage Body.]

The system's answer made Jin understand the close connection between the sage body and bloodlines.

As the two sons of the Sage of Six Paths, Ashura and Indra inherited the power of the Sage Body and the Sage Eyes respectively. The Senju and Uchiha clans are the continuation of these two powers.

[For example, the reincarnation of Ashura, Senju Hashirama, was born with a sage body. As the body grows, the quality of the chakra increases, and the natural energy is absorbed unconsciously, it is easy to awaken the sage body to more than 80%, and then naturally awaken the wood release.]

This sentence made Jin further understand why Hashirama could master Wood Release so easily.

Not only does Hashirama possess a very high aptitude for a sage body due to his bloodline and chakra, he can also absorb natural energy without realizing it, allowing his sage body to continue to strengthen, eventually reaching a level of over 80%. In this way, he can naturally awaken Wood Release and exert powerful strength.

"System, what are my qualifications? To what extent can I awaken the sage body?"

[The host's aptitude is above average in the Senju clan. With the growth of your body and your own training, you can probably only reach 20%-30% of the Sage Body. The Sage Body of the Senju clan members can generally only reach 40% of the potential. A few geniuses and people with high aptitude can reach more than 60% of the Sage Body, such as Senju Tsunade.]

[Most of the Senju clan members do not have the potential to awaken a high-level sage body, and naturally do not have the potential to awaken Wood Release.]

After listening to the system's explanation, Jin had a more objective understanding of his own qualifications.

Heunderstood that although his qualifications were above average among the Senju, he still had a certain gap compared to the top talents.

Even so, Jin still possesses a relatively high potential for awakening the sage body, which can reach about 40%, which is far beyond the ordinary Senju clansmen.

This means that Jin does have the opportunity to further improve his sage body through continuous practice and growth, but if he wants to reach a height like Senju Hashirama, his own qualifications alone are not enough.

The system also revealed a key point: most members of the Senju clan did not have the potential to awaken high-level sage bodies, so they could not awaken Wood Release naturally.

This explains why Hashirama Senju was able to become the legendary "God of Shinobi," while other Senju clan members found it difficult to reach his height.

Tsunade Senju is one of the few geniuses who can reach more than 60% of the Sage Body. She is also famous for her powerful chakra and recovery ability, but she has never awakened Wood Release, which further illustrates the close connection between high-level Sage Body and Wood Release ability.

When Uchiha Jin faced the real data given by the system, he couldn't help feeling a little lost. Although he knew that his qualifications were not bad, there was still a clear gap compared to legends like Senju Hashirama.

Jin was unwilling to accept this. Did this gap mean that he was destined to be unable to master such a powerful Wood Release power?

Jin couldn't help but ask the system in his heart, with a hint of anxiety and unwillingness in his tone: "Am I destined to never have a powerful Wood Release like Senju Hashirama? System, is there no other way?"

[Host, you can use another ability of the system. This is a template left by one of your predecessors who traveled through time.]

[Dark blue plus points]

When Uchiha Jin heard this new term, his heart moved and he immediately checked the introduction of the ability. The system unfolded a detailed description of this ability in front of him.

[My achievements today are all due to my own hard work and talent, Dark Blue Plus points!!! – A senior]

[Deep Blue Plus Points can directly "add points" to improve the host's various attributes, whether it is the amount of chakra, chakra quality, or the awakening degree of the sage body, the power of the Sharingan, physical ability, etc., can be added by consuming the destiny points, so as to achieve a rapid improvement effect.]

[Note: The effect of adding points is immediate, but as the difficulty of upgrading increases, the required destiny points will also increase exponentially. This is the equivalent exchange of fate.]

When Jin saw the description of this ability, hope suddenly ignited in his heart. It turned out that the system also hid such a powerful function - "Dark Blue Plus Points"!

By adding points, Jin can directly improve his own attributes and even make up for his shortcomings in qualifications.

"This may be the key to me breaking through the limitation of bloodlines!" Jin thought excitedly in his heart.

However, Jin also understood that although this ability was powerful, it consumed a large amount of destiny points when used, and as the attributes improved, more and more destiny points would be required.

You need to use it with caution to ensure efficient use of destiny points.

Uchiha Jin now has 2260 destiny points. Although 2260 destiny points are not a small amount, it may be far from enough at a future point to increase needs.

Therefore, you need to plan the use of these destiny values rationally, and give priority to improving those attributes that are most critical to improving your own combat effectiveness.

After some thought, Uchiha Jin decided to use the destiny points to increase the awakening degree of the sage body first.

The Sage Body is the foundation of the Wood Release's power, and is also the key to improving chakra quality and vitality.

He hopes to be able to get as close to Hashirama Senju's level as possible by adding points.

"System, use 'Deep Blue Plus Points' to increase the sage body's awakening degree." Jin gave the order in his mind.

[Uchiha Jin will invest one thousand destiny points into the sage body's points.]

[Sage body awakening degree increased: current 21% --> 31% (consumes 1000 life points)]

With this increase in points, Jin clearly felt that the power in his body had become even stronger.

The awakening degree of the Sage Body suddenly increased by 10%, and his physical fitness, chakra quality and vitality have all improved significantly.

I felt that the chakra flow was smoother and my body's recovery ability was significantly enhanced. The whole person seemed to be more closely connected with nature, and the power of Wood Release became more potent. Then Uchiha Jin decided to invest another thousand life points.

[Sage body awakening degree increased: current 31% -> 36% (consumes 1000 life points)]

However, when Jin invested another thousand life points, he found that the improvement was only 5%. Although this increase still brought about the enhancement of the sage body, the effect was obviously not as significant as the first time.

Uchiha Jin frowned slightly. He was clearly aware that as the level of awakening of the sage body increased, the destiny points required for further increase would also increase exponentially.

In other words, the closer you are to a high-level sage body, the more destiny points you need, and the more difficult it is to improve.
