Naruto's Destiny and Future

If he succeeds, he will become a new immortal. If he fails, there will be another stone statue here.

After some psychological battles and weighing the pros and cons, Neji gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind. As the saying goes, people die for money and birds die for food. If he doesn't fight hard, he will look down on himself.

After adjusting his mentality, Neji separated into two clones and began to practice the sage mode according to Miaomushan's method. Although it was a castrated version, it was the fastest way for him to get closer to the truth.

The human body is a closed whole. Under normal circumstances, natural energy cannot enter the body. If you want it to enter, you must open the restriction and lower the valve.

Firstly, it is to stop the flow of energy in the body and enter a state of tranquility. Secondly, it is to let go of the body's defense, that is, the body's defense against foreign energy. Finally, it is to actively absorb it, because natural energy is a lazy visitor, it does not Will actively enter the body.

As the valve opened, Neji began to carefully absorb the surrounding natural energy. Gradually, a strange energy flowed into his body, with warmth and sweetness, like clear spring water flowing into the dry earth, making every move in Neji's body Every cell cheered.

However, this desire was like an itch, visible but intangible, just when Neji was about to explore why it was like this.

"Snapped!"

A slap from the clone interrupted his rhythm and woke him up.

"What's wrong??" Neji looked at the clone with a question mark on his face. He didn't feel anything unusual just now.

"You'd better see for yourself!" The clone smacked its lips and said nothing, just looking at the main body with a strange expression.

Neji hurriedly opened his Byakugan, and then realized that he...had become a demon.

Yes!

Demonized!

No, to be more precise, it was a deformation. At this moment, Neji looked like a randomly grown monster baby, and it was also deformed.

"This...is a bit like...Zhonggo?? Why is this happening??"

Ningji had a question mark on his forehead. The sage mode of Mount Myoboku was indeed capable of petrification and frog transformation, but he had never thought of becoming a demon like this.

"No...there's a problem!"

After carefully observing the body changes with his Byakugan, Neji discovered that these distortions all started from a center. If he guessed correctly...

"Help me get rid of this energy, I want to verify it!"

The two clones nodded in agreement, running their soft fists, and slapped randomly at the deformed areas on Neji's body. Soon, the natural energy was expelled from the body, and he returned to his original appearance.

After several days of trying and researching, Neji finally figured out the cause and effect of the matter.

Pure natural energy is not very harmful. As long as the absorption does not exceed its own "limit", there will be no petrification, distortion, etc.

The most harmful thing was the colorful "light spots" that Neji had ignored before.

After repeated research by Ningji, it was finally confirmed that the green one is the life energy crystallized from natural energy, which can cause petrification, and the rest is free spiritual power, which is the mental fluctuations escaping from all things in the ninja world and can also cause the demonization of cells. The culprit.

And this also explains the reason for Chongwu's frequent mental outbursts.

At the same time, it also shows the difficulty that cultivating immortals will encounter, that is, how to deal with these free spiritual forces.

A small amount may be fine, but once it is too much, it will cause a mental rage like Jugo. He does not want to have a schizophrenia or a second personality or something.

Neji thought about the cultivation method of Miaomu Mountain for a while, and suddenly thought of a key, toad oil! ! ?

If the guess is correct, the function of toad oil is not only to assist in cultivation, but also to dispel these free spiritual forces. Otherwise, when Naruto was petrified, he should have been transformed into a demon, not a toad.

But he doesn’t have toad oil!

Another half month passed, and Neji finally completed a relatively complete Sage Mode. Although it had some flaws and looked like a monster covered in tumors, it was finally usable.

After adjusting his mentality, Neji came to the water's edge, moved chakra with one hand, and a wind chakra suddenly appeared. Then, in a nervous mood, he threw it away.

"Boom~~!"

With a roar, the lake surface in the distance exploded, and a waterspout surged upward until it was more than ten meters high before suddenly falling.

This scene not only shocked Ningji, but also shocked the red-crowned cranes not far away. They had never seen this kind of scenery before. They stretched their necks one by one and observed curiously.

"This power is really a qualitative breakthrough!"

Neji felt the oncoming water mist and clenched his fists excitedly, then threw out several familiar skills.

Then, he felt a strong sense of malice and ran out of magic chakra! !

"I'm going, so fast? How many skills are there? I don't use any high-level ninjutsu!"

Neji subconsciously complained a few words, and then he remembered his age and chakra level, and then he made up his mind to become an immortal.

Having made up his mind, Neji suddenly found a group of foreign objects floating on the lake. A closer look revealed that they were big fish with their bellies turned over. They thought they were the unlucky ones who had been stunned by the ninjutsu before, but they soon became unlucky ones.

In line with the principle of not wasting, Neji picked up a few of the fattest looking big fish and grilled them over the fire. Then he took out the seasonings from the scroll and grilled them slowly.

At this time, the remaining fish on the lake slowly dispersed with the water flow, and some of them floated among the red-crowned cranes.

At first, these guys tentatively pulled at the unconscious fish, not daring to eat it. It was not until a few fish woke up and dived into the water that they started scrambling to grab the fish on the surface.

However, one of the guys did not join the fight among his companions. Instead, he looked at the guy under the big tree with gleaming eyes. At the same time, he raised his beak, opened and closed his nostrils, and sniffed the inexplicable fragrance in the air.

Whether it was the stepping on the water before, the ability just now, or the bonfire now, all of this was something he had never seen before, and these were brought by the outsider not far away.

At this moment, he was full of curiosity about the outside world.

Neji didn't pay too much attention to the situation of the red-crowned cranes. He took a big grilled fish and ate it deliciously. Not to mention, in this isolated place, the fish was not only big, but also tasted very good and fragrant. Delicate, not as woody as the ones bought at the market.

Of course, bigness is only for Neji, who is only a few meters tall, but for the red-crowned cranes, it is just a small fish with a mouthful of stuffiness.

Neji ate for a long time and only ate one piece. This was because he had consumed a lot recently. Otherwise, it would have been half a piece at most.

Neji didn't waste the fish that he couldn't finish. He found some straw ropes and hung them on the branches, preparing to continue tomorrow. Then he jumped up to the middle of the tree and found a comfortable place to lie down.

Although there are no dangerous creatures here, you still have to be careful, otherwise the boat will capsize in the gutter.
