Chat group from Naruto

【Dead World】

Type: Special Skills/Growth Areas

Current stage: prototype (1-1)

……

The introduction to [The Realm of the Dead] in the panel is very brief, so brief that it has no value at all.

There is an option to directly spend points to upgrade, but what about the price...

Anyway, looking at the large string of zeros behind him, Fang Zhou couldn't bring up the idea of ​​exchanging it.

The income from clearing the Naruto world is probably not enough to raise the [Dead World] to a small level.

Instead, it would be more efficient to use the knowledge in the Shadow Demon inheritance and slowly spend time cultivating it.

According to the description in the second stage of inheritance, the more souls in the [Dead World], the better, but the number of souls is not simply accumulated.

In fact, every soul will bring a certain bonus to the growth of the world of the dead.

However, depending on the qualifications, attributes, etc. of the soul itself, the bonuses will also have a certain tendency.

If we only look at the bonus of a single soul, regardless of the tendency, it is always a positive bonus.

It's nothing more than a difference in whether the bonus is more or less, and whether the direction of the bonus is useful.

However, in this world, there is another saying called "attribute conflict".

Take a simple example.

Take weapon enchanting as an example. Enchanting a knife with a "frost damage bonus" attribute will increase the power of the weapon itself to a certain extent.

The same goes for "Fire Damage Bonus".

However, if these two enchantments are attached to a weapon at the same time, there will be a serious attribute conflict. Not only will it not bring any help, but it will seriously damage the structure of the weapon itself.

If the material and forging technology are not up to standard, it is normal for it to be damaged on the spot.

Even if it doesn't break, its attributes will be greatly reduced.

Of course, this is an extreme case.

Investing souls in the [Necromancer Realm], even if there is an attribute conflict, is not so extreme. In the most serious case, it will at most slow down the growth rate of the [Necromancer Realm] slightly.

However, it is difficult to increase the growth rate of the [Dead World]. Even if it is reduced by a small amount, the impact will be obvious in the long run.

Fortunately, Fangzhou doesn't have many souls in the [Dead World] now.

Among them, the two most important attributes of Qingxing Lantern are "Ming", a very rare attribute that favors darkness.

As for Raikage Ai...

No need to ask more, it is naturally a "thunder" attribute.

Although the souls of these two attributes have different emphases and can even be classified as "competing" types, there is no conflict in terms of their influence on the [Dead World] and they can coexist.

Seeing this, Fang Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.

The two most important souls can coexist, and even if some of the other cannon fodder are eliminated, it is not unacceptable.

After some inspections, Fang Zhou selected a few cannon fodder souls, extracted them from the [Dead Realm], and threw them into the Ninja Realm, leaving them to fend for themselves.

According to the basic "rules" of the Naruto world, the moment these souls were about to dissipate, they were sucked away by an unknown force from where they came from, and disappeared from Fang Zhou's perception in an extremely strange way.

Fang Zhou knew clearly that the destination of those souls was the so-called "Pure Land" in this world, and it was also where the immortal guy from the Six Paths Immortal was hiding.

Of course, Fang Zhou is greedy for the souls in the "Pure Land".

Over the years, who knows how many souls have accumulated in the Pure Land?

You know, except for the method of "chakra immortality", in the world of Naruto, there is no such thing as reincarnation.

When you die, you are dead. Your soul will only enter the Pure Land. Under normal circumstances, there is no possibility of coming out.

After countless years of growth, God knows how many souls have accumulated there, and how many high-quality existences there are.

Even if the Sage of Six Paths needs to absorb the power of these souls to maintain Kaguya Otsutsuki's seal, this will result in the soul not being able to exist permanently in the Pure Land, but as an "energy source".

Once the energy is exhausted, it dissipates completely.

However, considering the level of war in the Ninja world, even in just the past few decades, the number of souls in the Pure Land would be quite astonishing.

If we can win them all, the growth progress of [Dead World] will definitely be pushed up a lot.

only……

Fang Zhou calculated his strength and immediately made a judgment: now is not the time to fall out with the Immortal of Six Paths.

The soul in the pure land should stay there for now.

On the one hand, there is a high probability that it cannot be defeated.

It costs a huge amount of points to check the information of the Immortal of Six Paths through the chat group. Fang Zhou has not investigated in detail this character who appears rarely in the original work but has great influence.

But judging from the scale and half of the claws exposed in the original work, the strength of the Six Paths Immortal should have reached the limit of the Six Paths level, which is the level of 99 points.

This was the strength of the "war" that sealed Kaguya Otsutsuki 1000 years ago.

Even if the Six Paths Immortal's strength has not improved at all in these thousands of years, it is not something that Fang Zhou can easily deal with now.

In fact, the probability of losing is even greater.

The most important thing is that even if you can win, there is no need to take risks.

With the chat group or Ye Xiaolan as the backend, Fang Zhou's growth rate was ridiculously fast.

As long as it develops steadily for a period of time, it can steadily crush opponents that were originally unbeatable.

Defeating the strong with the weak is what the loser protagonist plays.

Isn’t it delicious to be crushed by strength?

Who is willing to risk death, use all their trump cards, or even get seriously injured, to barely defeat a powerful enemy who can be crushed by strength?

Taking these considerations into account, it is indeed important to plan for the soul in the Pure Land, but the best way is to postpone planning this matter for a while.

It doesn’t take long either.

With Fangzhou's growth rate, at most the last three to five years would be enough.

——At that point, the plot hadn’t even officially started, and it had no impact at all.

Of course, the plot of the Naruto world has been drastically changed by Fang Zhou.

Even if it reaches the time point of the original work, things will not develop like the original work.

But no matter what, with the strange power of "autonomous repair of the world line", Kaguya Otsutsuki breaking the seal will not happen for at least ten or eight years.

This gave Fangzhou enough time to grow.

……

After some sorting, the number of souls in [The Realm of the Dead] was reduced, with only 51 souls left.

The originally deserted little world was as silent as a dead place.

For creatures that are too weak, their souls will dissipate immediately after death and cannot be retained.

According to the standards of the Naruto world, one must at least be a formal ninja in order to still exist in the form of a soul after death.

But even in the "pure land" that is most suitable for souls to survive, a genin's soul cannot exist for long, and it cannot retain its self-consciousness and "survive" in a hazy state until the day it completely dissipates.

However, in the [Dead World], as long as it is a complete soul, its survival time is unlimited.

Unless the [Necromancer Realm] is broken, or the attributes are changed by external forces, the souls living in the [Necromancer Realm] can always exist.

Of course, being actively consumed by Fang Zhou, the "master", is an exception.

However, there is still a limitation that souls that are not strong enough cannot retain self-awareness.

Similarly, the "newborn" soul also needs a certain amount of time to be cultivated before it can regain its self-awareness.

——What this refers to is the soul of Raikage Ai.

When one dies and the soul leaves the body, unless one's strength reaches the Sixth Path level, one will enter a state of confusion and unconsciousness.

In this state, no matter how strong the soul is, its only value to Fangzhou is to be used as some kind of energy source or consumable.

In fact, this is what the Six Paths Sage does to the souls in the Pure Land.

Of course, if you provide a physical body that is strong enough for the soul to descend, you can restore their consciousness and memory.

The simplest method is Orochimaru's earth reincarnation.

However, that means nothing to Fang Zhou, who is following the path of the Shadow Demon.

Even if the soul is used as a consumable to enhance the power of [Shadow of Destruction] or other shadow demon skills, it will be a thousand times more powerful than the reincarnation of the dirty earth.

Of course, for some souls with potential, such as Raikage Ai's soul, the most cost-effective way is to put them into the [Dead Soul Realm] to focus on training, so that they can gradually regain their strength and awaken their self-awareness.

With the ubiquitous soul imprints in the [Dead World] gradually brainwashing and transforming, there is no need to worry about loyalty issues.

Just like Qing Xingdeng, he has only been in the [Dead World] for just one month, and his loyalty to Fang Zhou is already very impressive.

If measured in a digital way, assuming that the full value is 100 points, Qing Xingdeng's loyalty to Fangzhou has at least reached the passing line of [-] points.

Even if loyalty becomes more difficult to improve as time passes, it can take at most one year to slowly increase it to full value.

The most powerful thing about the [Necromancer Realm] is that the Shadow Demon has almost absolute control over the souls living in the [Necromancer Realm], and there is no possibility of any betrayal.

With this foundation, it is good to use the soul as a consumable and energy source, but cultivating its awakening of independent consciousness, becoming the most loyal subordinate, and sharing troubles from different levels is the most cost-effective "usage".

It is a pity that Qing Xingdeng's soul is seriously injured. Although he has recovered a lot in more than a month, he still needs several months to recover from his injuries before he can initially regain a certain fighting strength.

As for Raikage Ai, it would take more than half a year just to revive him.

And it would take even longer to let Raikage Ai master combat in soul form and so on.

This is also a problem that those with physical skills will face after death: all their strength is in physical skills. Once they lose their physical bodies and fight in the form of souls, it will be very difficult to adapt.

However, in the end, it is just a problem that can be solved with time.

With Raikage Ai's "talent", it is definitely worth spending some time waiting for him to grow up.

Qing Xingdeng and Leiying Ai, these two souls, with the amplifying effect of [Dead Soul Realm] on soul growth, can reach the ceiling of super shadow level at worst.

Even touching or even crossing the threshold of the Sixth Level is not completely impossible.

Of course, if you don't invest a lot of resources, you will need a certain amount of luck to take this step.

Maybe it is normal to be stuck in this bottleneck for a lifetime.

In the world of extraordinary beings, there is never any fairness.

Talent determines almost everything.

Even souls have differences in qualifications.

The two souls who are destined to reach the peak of the Super Shadow Level, and even have a chance to break through to the Sixth Level, are the ones with the most potential in Fang Zhou's hands.

The potential of the remaining 49 souls is much lower, and even the chance to awaken self-consciousness, that is, to reach the "Shadow Level", is less than a palm.

This means that the vast majority of souls can still only be used as energy sources and consumables.

Not many are of value for cultivation.

In fact, a skill like [Death World] requires a large amount of souls to truly exert its value.

No matter how few talented souls there are, as long as the base is large enough, there is no need to worry about not being able to find them.

This characteristic also leads to the fact that almost the vast majority of shadow demons are world-destroying demon type characters.

Whenever a new world is encountered, a war of annihilation will be launched, killing all living things in the world, harvesting the souls and precious materials, and even the "origin" of the world.

Of course, this "origin" is not the same thing as the "world origin" needed by the chat group. At most, it can only be regarded as an extremely special energy, but it is extremely valuable and extremely difficult to obtain.

Occasionally, there are some shadow demons who don't like "destroying the world", not because they are kind-hearted, but because they "capture" an entire world of creatures to provide themselves with a steady source of souls.

After reading the information about cultivating souls and creating legions in the second stage of inheritance in the [Dead Soul Realm], Fang Zhou had the idea of ​​launching a large-scale war and harvesting souls.

Fortunately, Fang Zhou suppressed this thought.

With the chat group as a backer, Fangzhou does not lack the means to increase his strength.

Although the Shadow Demon inheritance is the core strength, it is only part of the strength, not all of it.

This foundation is enough to ensure that Fang Zhou will not embark on some extreme path due to excessive pursuit of power.

At least, it is still possible to stick to the four words of "keeping one's heart".

Just like Fang Zhou didn't kill wantonly in order to gain a large amount of the origin of the world.

Now, Fangzhou will also not push the ninja world to destruction in order to harvest a large number of souls.

However, since it is power, there is no reason not to use it.

The fact that he will not deliberately launch a war to harvest souls does not mean that Fangzhou will completely give up the ability to harvest souls in [The Realm of the Dead].

After all, enemies and other things have to be reused.

Although it is said that there are basically no enemies, "basically none" and "none at all" are two different concepts.

Especially when there is a person who walks in the ninja world. Not only are there people who dare to challenge "Otsutsuki Ichiraku" regardless of life and death, but there are also quite a few.

These are the sources of power in [The Realm of the Dead].
