Shinobi: I'm Really a Supportive Ninja

Natural energy, its essence is completely opposite to chakra energy.

There is no need to go into too much detail about the method of refining chakra. It is the power born from the combination of spiritual power and physical cells.

Therefore, the amount of chakra is directly linked to spiritual power and life energy.

To put it bluntly, chakra is the power that humans have. As long as it is extracted, it is completely harmless to the human body when stored in the human body.

But natural energy is different.

Natural energy is a kind of power floating in the outside world. If Hatake Akira's prediction is correct, this kind of power should have existed in the ninja world before Otsutsuki Kaguya and Otsutsuki Ishiki came to the ninja world.

The power of nature can be violent or gentle. It encompasses all things and is more malleable than chakra.

But the problem is that mastering nature with a human body must pay a certain price.

The price is that the recognition of natural forces is very low.

If the natural force cannot recognize you and cannot be absorbed by you, then the form of natural energy is extremely violent and primitive, and its most direct manifestation is to petrify the human body.

White Snake Sage possesses the coldness and cruelty of a snake. Although Hatake Akira has passed three trials, it is too easy for White Snake Sage to perform small tricks as both a player and a referee.

Moreover, the method of practicing immortality in Ryūchi Cave is also very direct, unlike the practice of immortality in Miaomu Mountain which is step-by-step.

The method of practicing immortality in Longdi Cave is to directly inject the seeds of natural energy into the body of the tester, allowing the tester to adapt on their own or gain recognition from the natural energy on their own.

Only those who can adapt and be recognized by the natural energy will have the opportunity to obtain the subsequent cultivation method of Longdi Cave Immortal Technique.

This method of cultivating immortality is extremely dangerous, extremely dangerous.

If the success rate of passing the first three trials is one in a thousand, then when it comes to White Snake Immortal, the success rate will drop by ten times or more.

Hatake Akira couldn't help but suspect that Orochimaru probably fell at this last step, otherwise Orochimaru wouldn't have warned him like this in the first place.

On the other hand, in the practice of celestial arts at Miaomu Mountain, not only are there people protecting the practitioners, but they also give you the methods as soon as you come up.

With this kind of nanny-style celestial art training, it’s no wonder that many of the ninjas contracted with Miaomu Mountain know the celestial arts of Miaomu Mountain.

"The White Snake Immortal just wants to kill me, right?"

The strength of his body has reached to his neck, and Hatake Akira is having trouble turning his head now, "And no wonder no one has been able to learn the magic of Ryūchi Cave until now!"

Hatake Akira felt bitter in his heart. If his first stop for learning immortal arts was Miaomu Mountain, it might not be so dangerous.

But then again, Hatake Akira is not worried that he will die under the erosion of violent natural energy. His many life-saving equipment are not vegetarian!

"Wait to die..."

Hatake Akira has already adapted to the violent natural energy in his body. Even with the blessing of his superb Ninjutsu talent, he has synthesized a lot of Senjutsu Chakra, and there are even signs around his eyes that represent successful cultivation of Senjutsu Chakra. Purple eyeshadow.

But it's a pity that the White Snake Sage has ill intentions towards Hatake Akira.

The natural energy seeds that White Snake Sennin injected into Hatake Akira completely exceeded the standard. His purpose was not to let Hatake Akira learn the magic of Ryūchi Cave, but to kill Hatake Akira.

"But Lao Bai...you don't know how many trump cards I have!"

After speaking angrily, Hatake Akira's petrification speed suddenly accelerated, spreading from his neck to his face, and then covering his entire head.

"Haha, he's still dead."

The White Snake Immortal who was observing Hatake Akira in the cave smiled sadly, "You want to contract three holy lands at the same time, but you also put me, Ryudi Cave, in last place. This is the price you have to face."

"Shenji."

"White Snake Immortal, I am here." Tian Xin Shenji appeared and appeared below the White Snake Immortal.

"That kid Akira Hatake has been completely petrified. Go and smash the stone statue he turned into. Don't let me see him again."

"yes!"

Tian Xin Shenji replied respectfully, opened her fangs and sharp mouth, stretched out her blue tongue and licked her lips, "White Snake Immortal, you are going to such trouble, you might as well let us eat him from the beginning!"

"Hmph! Do you think you can be his opponent?"

White Snake Sage glanced at Tian Xinji, "I can feel that the arrogant guy Hatake Akira contains power that is no less than that of Six Paths Sage, and he also has the power of space and time."

"Don't talk about you guys. Even if I take action personally, I'm not sure I can subdue and kill Hatake Akira in the first time."

"This..." Tian Xinji looked at the White Snake Immortal in astonishment, "Hatake Akira is really as powerful as you say?"

"His body... is obviously thin and a gust of wind can blow him away..."

"Shenji, I think you have been in Longdi Cave for a long time, and your brain is not working well." White Snake Immortal reprimanded, "If what I expected is correct, the current physical condition of that kid Akira Hatake should be It’s due to a very special evolutionary state.”

"And the end point of his body's evolution should be the six-level life level."

"Although it's a pity that I couldn't devour his flesh and blood and soul, as long as I can deal with him, I will feel a lot better."

"Also, Longdi Cave was created by me. Naturally, I have to take the lead in abiding by the rules. Otherwise, if there are no rules in the future, where will Longdi Cave go?"

"It's my limit to embarrass that brat Akira Hatake to the maximum extent within the prescribed scope..."

"I understand, White Snake Immortal." Tian Xin Shenji nodded, all the doubts in her mind disappeared, and then she took the order and left.

The White Snake Immortal looked at Tian Xinji's leaving figure, and his dim eyes were filled with light. "Hatake Akira, Hatake Akira, you are indeed the most talented person I have seen in a thousand years, but..."

"You absolutely shouldn't, you just shouldn't mess with me!"

After saying a few words, the White Snake Immortal stopped paying attention to everything in the outside world and instead leaned on her throne with her eyes closed to rest.

As soon as the scene changed, Tian Xin Shenji had already arrived outside the cave, and the first thing she saw was Hatake Akira turned into a stone statue.

"Little guy, although it's a big regret of mine that I didn't eat you, I am also happy from the bottom of my heart that you have become like this."

Tian Xin Shen Ji is also petty. After all, Hatake Akira passed her test and passed it in the toughest way. It's strange that she feels better.

Her legs suddenly turned into snake tails, Tian Xin Shenji swung her dragon tail and smashed the stone statue that Hatake Akira had transformed into.

"solve!"

Tian Xinji clapped her hands, and while turning around, her long tail swept away the stone statues transformed by Akira Hatake into the corners on both sides of the cave road.

Crash.

Broken stones scattered in all directions, colliding with the fragments of stone statues transformed by other trialists who had existed for an unknown period of time, making bursts of sounds.

It is roughly estimated that the number of trialists buried on both sides of the road to the main cave of Longdi Cave has reached hundreds.

These are all representatives of geniuses from all eras, but they all died here...

I have to say that this is a pity, and if Hatake Akira didn't have a life-saving trump card, he would probably become one of them.

Just as Tian Xin Shenji turned to leave, a faint light appeared behind her.

Turning back suddenly, a pair of golden vertical pupils narrowed in confusion. Tian Xinji felt a power that she could not understand but was extremely longing for.

"What's this……"

A piece of silk cloth inlaid with gold slowly fell down. Tian Xin Shenji reached out to catch it and lowered her head to observe carefully.

But the moment Tian Xin Shenji lowered her head, the bright light in front of her changed again.

A shadow hidden in the light gradually stared at him. If he looked carefully, he could tell that the shadow was exactly what Akira Hatake looked like.

Suddenly, the light group shone brightly, and the power that Tian Xin Shenji longed for suddenly reached its peak!

"What kind of power is this!"

Tian Xinji raised her head again, staring at the ball of light greedily, but then she was shocked, "It's Hatake Akira!"

"How could it be? Hasn't he already been captured by me..."

Not only Tian Xinji was shocked, but even the White Snake Immortal who had fallen into a nap was awakened by the movement outside the cave.

After feeling it carefully, the White Snake Immortal also showed a greedy expression like Tian Xinji.

"I feel it. This is the power of rules..."

"And this rule is also a resurrection rule. That little guy Akira Hatake really surprised me!"

Standing up from the throne, the White Snake Immortal, who transformed into an old woman, slowly walked out of the cave.

Although she walked slowly, she could cover a long distance with every step she took. In just two steps, the White Snake Immortal came to Tian Xinji's side.

"White Snake Immortal."

Tian Xin Shenji did not expect to alarm the White Snake Immortal, and immediately bent down to salute, with a look of fear on her face, "Subordinate... I don't know what is going on here..."

"It's not your fault."

Immortal White Snake waved his hand, "Shen Ji, go down, I will handle it here."

"yes!"

Tian Xin Shenji looked unwilling, but could not refuse the order of the White Snake Immortal, so she could only leave in despair, looking back three times.

After Tian Xin Shenji left, the White Snake Immortal showed his greedy look again, stepped forward and reached out to touch the ball of light surrounding Hatake Ming.

"It's the power of the rules of resurrection, that's right..."

After confirming, the greed in White Snake Immortal's eyes became even heavier, "Whether or not this has something to do with that little guy Hatake Akira, but...this power belongs to me!"

After saying that, the majestic magic chakra in White Snake Sage suddenly burst out, and his withered right hand suddenly grabbed the ball of light that enveloped Hatake Akira.

Snapped.

But a skinny but strong free hand suddenly grabbed the White Snake Immortal's stretched out wrist.

"It's very rude to take other people's things without the owner's permission."

Hatake Akira, who was resurrected using the "Sage's Asylum" piece of equipment, chuckled lightly, "White Snake Sage, I have completed your test in advance, so..."

"Can you give me the magic of Longdi Cave in advance?"

"Hatake Akira...you really gave me a big surprise, the biggest surprise in a thousand years!"

The White Snake Immortal suddenly turned into a half-human, half-snake state, and his scaly old face suddenly came closer to Hatake Akira, "But before I teach you the magic of Ryūchi Cave, I want to know what the power is that can resurrect you. .”

"Don't you already know?"

Hatake Akira took a step back and let go of White Snake Sage's wrist, "Also, I'm not interested in the old lady, you'd better stay away from me."

"haha okay."

The strange thing is that Akira Hatake's provocative words did not arouse the dissatisfaction of the White Snake Sage. Not only did she do it, but the smile on her face became even bigger.

"Little guy, where did you get the power of rules that can resurrect you?"

"You want it?" Hatake Ming also raised the corner of his mouth.

"I want it, just like you want to learn the magic of Longdi Cave." The corners of Immortal White Snake's mouth also curved.

"Then I'll give it to you!" Hatake Akira tilted his head.

"Haha, I can teach you the same thing." The White Snake Immortal smiled happily, but the viciousness in his eyes also flashed away.

"So... are you happy to work together?"

As if Hatake Akira didn't see it, he smiled and extended his right hand the next second.

“Happy to work with!”

White Snake Immortal also stretched out his right hand and held it tightly with Hatake Akira's right hand.

As soon as the two touched points, they each achieved their goals.

Although there is an element of transaction, this has become irrelevant, as long as the purpose can be achieved, it does not matter.

Hatake Akira has that confidence. He can completely protect himself from the White Snake Immortal's attack. Even if the fighting duration reaches a certain level and he re-enters the Sixth Path level, it is not impossible to kill the White Snake Immortal.

If the two people who have their own secrets make peace on the surface, the rest will be simple.

"Little one, follow me."

White Snake Immortal turned around and left, and Hatake Akira quickly followed.

However, the side effects of Hatake Akira's resurrection still showed up, and White Snake Sage saw through it at a glance.

Senjutsu Chakra has a unique advantage in perception. With the strength of White Snake Sage, you can know how bad Hatake Akira's current physical condition is with just a moment of perception.

"Is the vitality and soul power only 30% of what it was at the beginning?"

The corner of his mouth was slightly raised, and the White Snake Immortal glanced at Hatake Akira behind him for unknown reasons, "Although the essence of life still transcends the scope of human beings, its combat power has dropped a lot."

"If I wasn't sure I could deal with you quickly before, then now...hehe."

Similarly, Akira Hatake, who was following the White Snake Sage, felt her malice immediately.

This depends on the internal changes that occurred in Hatake Akira's body after he was resurrected using the "Sage's Asylum" equipment.

Just like Hatake Sakumo back then, the power of blood elimination caused his body to collapse, but with the help of the Resurrection Armor, when he was resurrected, he still integrated the power of blood elimination into his own blood.

In the same way, after Hatake Akira came back from the dead, the natural energy seeds in his body were integrated with his body.

Although the size of the natural energy seeds is much smaller, as long as there are natural energy seeds, Hatake Akira can absorb the natural energy from the outside world without restriction.

Even because of Akira Hatake's own talent, he can already roughly use the natural energy in his body.

However, without obtaining a specific training method, Hatake Akira was unable to combine natural energy with chakra energy to form celestial chakra. This was the main reason why he and White Snake Sage had an affair.

"Here we are, right here."

When Hatake Akira felt the natural energy seeds in his body, the White Snake Sage walking in front stopped.

"Little guy, I know that you have integrated the natural energy seeds I injected into your body into yourself, so I will go straight to the topic. Please pay attention."

Immortal White Snake turned around and said, "I will only say this once. Whether you can remember it completely depends on your own talent."

"The Immortal Mode of my Dragon Earth Cave is very different from the Immortal Mode of Miaomu Mountain and Shigu Forest."

"Let's talk about Miaomu Mountain first. The sage mode of that group of toads is gentle, more malleable, and very easy to learn. I have to admit that I, Ryūchi Cave, do not have this advantage."

"But this is only for you humans. For us creatures who are born with the ability to use natural energy, there is no difference at all."

"Collecting the above points, Miaomu Mountain's immortal mode is the most suitable immortal technique for human beings to learn."

"But it is good for learning, which does not mean that the immortal mode of Miaomu Mountain is strong. On the contrary, the immortal mode of Miaomu Mountain is the weakest among the three holy places."

"The weakest one?!" Hatake Akira opened his eyes wide, somewhat in disbelief.

Hatake Akira remembered that Uzumaki Naruto, who had learned the Myoboku Mountain Sage Mode, was quite powerful.

"Isn't this right?"

"Huh, what's wrong?!"

White Snake Sage glared at Hatake Akira, "Isn't the original intention of learning the Sage Mode and using the Senju Chakra to enhance your own power level and allow yourself to enter a more powerful fighting realm?"

"When power becomes gentle and highly malleable, the violent and destructive power of natural energy will naturally decrease. Don't you understand this?"

"this……"

The words of the White Snake Sage made Hatake Ming speechless, and he also understood what the White Snake Sage meant.

Being conducive to learning means that part of the power is castrated, and the more difficult it is to learn, it means that once you learn it, the starting point will definitely be a higher level than the former.

"Little guy, don't interrupt. Listen to me and tell you slowly."

Seeing that Hatake Akira was honest, White Snake Sage continued to tell him the specific nature of Ryūchidō Sage Mode.

"The sage mode of my Ryūchi Cave and the method of practicing celestial chakra are so direct that a human being with enough talent can master the most primitive, violent and powerful celestial arts in one day!"

"Although you may think that this is dangerous, but since you are pursuing power, the danger is nothing."

He reached out and poked Hatake Akira's chest, "Carefully feel the natural energy seeds in your body. What do you feel?"

"It contains a steady stream of natural energy and the ability to independently absorb external natural energy."

Hatake Akira's control over his body is ridiculously high. He can tell his own changes at a glance and can adapt to them with every movement.

"Yes, that's it!" White Snake Immortal looked arrogant, "Natural energy seeds are the core of my Ryujidong Immortal model. It beats those toads in Miaomu Mountain ten blocks away!"

“With natural energy seeds here, you no longer need to spend time sitting quietly and waste your limited time absorbing natural energy.”

"You only need to combine the natural energy released from the natural energy seeds when refining your own chakra, and combine the two into fairy chakra."

"Even if your magic chakra is exhausted during the battle, there is no need to worry. As long as the natural energy seeds are there, natural energy will flow into your body continuously!"

"If you put it this way... the immortal mode of Longdi Cave is indeed the strongest, with full power and sustainability."

Hatake Akira touched his chin and couldn't help but nod, "But White Snake Sennin, there is probably no one else besides me who can successfully integrate natural energy seeds into himself."

"Huh, if you want to gain power, you have to bear the same amount of risk!" White Snake Immortal was a little dissatisfied, "That's because they are not talented enough, it does not mean that my magical skills in Longdi Cave are not strong!"

"Yes, yes, the magic in Longdi Cave is the strongest!"

Hatake Ming agreed, but at the same time he also understood the shortcomings of Ryūchi Cave Immortal Technique.

The magic of Longdi Cave can be said to be the strongest among the three holy places in terms of power and sustainability. After all, the fighting power of snakes far exceeds that of toads and slugs.

However, the difficulty is that the magic of Longdi Cave is too violent. If you want to master it perfectly and harmlessly, it is as difficult as climbing to the sky.

In Akira Hatake's impression, the only person who could successfully practice Ryūchi Cave Senjutsu on his own was Kabuto Orochi.

However, the reason why Orochima Kabuto is called Orochima Kabuto instead of Yakushi Kabuto comes from the transformation of Yakushi Kabuto's own body.

Transforming himself into a half-human, half-snake monster with the blood of a white phosphorous serpent in his body, he would naturally avoid many detours if he wanted to successfully practice the magic of Ryūchi Cave.

But obviously, this approach is a shortcut. If there is no shortcut, others who want to learn the magic of Longdi Cave will undoubtedly seek death.

To put it bluntly, the magic of Longdi Cave is not suitable for normal humans to learn at all.

In other words, the magic of Longdi Cave was tailor-made for the white phosphorus snake in Longdi Cave. How could it not be strong?

"Then how do I combine the natural energy in the natural energy seeds with my own chakra?"

Hatake Akira no longer worries about whether Ryūchidong's celestial arts are suitable for human learning. Anyway, he has perfectly integrated the natural energy seeds. What he should be concerned about next is how to refine the celestial arts chakra.

"It's very simple."

The White Snake Immortal snapped his fingers, "Combining your spiritual power with the natural energy seeds, and then relying on the body's vitality to nourish the natural energy seeds. With a three-pronged approach, you can naturally synthesize chakra independently when you refine it." Senjutsu Chakra.”

"So strong?!"

Hatake Ming was stunned. The essence of Ryūchi Cave Immortal Technique is natural energy seeds. All other methods and processes are completely dispensable.

"Of course!"

The White Snake Immortal still looked arrogant, "But your human body is very different from our White Phosphorus Orochi clan. I want to remind you that if you refine the magic chakra too much... your lifespan will be shortened easily."

"You mean...using Longdi Cave's magic will deplete my vitality?"

"Otherwise?" White Snake Immortal looked at Hatake Akira as if he were a fool, "In this world, if you want to obtain the corresponding power, you must pay the corresponding price."

"In other words... the magic of Ryūchi Cave is not perfect?" Hatake Akira murmured to himself.

"Little guy, I really want to swallow you up!" The White Snake Immortal couldn't help but became furious after hearing what Hatake Akira said. "My magic in Ryūchi Cave is the most perfect!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Hatake Akira nodded repeatedly, not wanting to argue with the White Snake Immortal.

Sitting down cross-legged, Hatake Akira planned to refine the celestial chakra from Ryūchi Cave, "Well, White Snake Sage, can I give it a try?"

"Try it. There is plenty of natural energy here, which can slow down the rate at which the natural energy seeds absorb your life force."

"What?" Hatake Akira suddenly paused, "Don't natural energy seeds absorb natural energy from the outside world on their own? Why are they linked to my life force again?"

"The natural energy in the outside world is thin, and the amount of natural energy seeds absorbed cannot reach the standard for it to exist, so your own vitality will naturally become its nutrients."

"My darn thing!"

Hatake Akira finally understood that Wan She had to ask for a sacrifice from Orochimaru every time he appeared. Emotions are the natural energy of the outside world that is thin, and it wants to replenish its own vitality in this way...

But after cursing secretly, Hatake Akira was still immersed in the natural energy seeds in his body.

The shortcomings of Longdi Cave Immortal Technique, he can now completely tolerate by relying on the passivity of many equipments.

And when Hatake Akira learns the magic of the remaining two holy places, it should be able to complement the magic of Ryūchi Cave, perfectly offsetting the shortcomings of Ryūchi Cave's magic.

This trip to Ryūchi Cave is not the end for Akira Hatake...
