Chapter 447 Youlv: ...Your feeling is indeed subtle.

In the end, Uchiha Tajima, who failed to convince Ling but was persuaded to give him time, was privately ridiculed by Uchiha Keizhi for several days. However, he was also very curious about the method Ling mentioned, so he took the opportunity of an outing to recruit him and asked him for details.

Just as Ling had said to Uchiha Tajima, he began to go to the surrounding towns to look for orphans in between missions - but this job was not easy. First of all, he must not choose a village that was affected by the Uchiha. If he met someone in the town, he had to be careful to distinguish whether they were small-time scammers launched by the black market. Finally, confirming the status of their relatives was even more of a mess.

"You really like this thankless job," Youlu probed his consciousness into the Wraith Pearl and looked at Ling who was using his chakra to sort out various information. "Don't you have orphans in your clan? Wouldn't it be better to choose from within the clan?"

"I have other plans for the tribe," Ling raised his hand and touched the giant cat's head, then smiled, "I plan to reorganize the breeding center of the tribe later."

Yalu snorted and motioned for him to continue.

"After all, according to the current model, many orphans in the tribe will only be given enough resources to survive after they are found to have no talent for ninjas, and they will not be allowed to go to the tribe school because they have no talent. After they have some ability to take care of themselves, they will either be adopted by people their parents are familiar with, or sent to the civilian market to start earning their own food.

The obedience and recognition of such tribesmen to the clan is bound to be low, and the attitude of the children is the most critical in the future plan, so I plan to take this matter from the clan, which will not only facilitate my own affairs, but also provide me with an extra layer of cover from the clan..."

Ling stopped talking and looked at Youlv with a wry smile, "There is one more thing. Can you please take me to find the next three-tailed beast? And the eight-tailed beast or the nine-tailed beast..."

"Well, I know about the lazy turtle, but what are you looking for the octopus and the stinky fox?"

"I remember you mentioned that these two know something about immortal arts. I can feel that I have reached a bottleneck recently, and the Living Slug Immortal always fails to get to the point, so I want to ask them."

Youlv suddenly became interested, "It's reached a bottleneck? When did it happen?"

"Um, this..." Ling shifted his gaze slightly and lowered his voice a lot, "After a week of training in the holy land?"

Youlv was stunned in place, and after a while he continued to ask, "Then why did you stay so long?"

"Because the Living Slug Immortal knows a lot of history that I don't know. Information like this needs to be verified with each other to reach an accurate result. I left the Holy Land to find a way to break through the bottleneck only after I was sure that I couldn't get more information."

Ling sighed, "Who would have thought that after I came out, I could continue my cultivation smoothly for a while, but soon I got stuck again for the same reason?"

[In terms of his talent in cultivation, he is probably almost as good as the old man…] Youlu lowered his eyes and looked at Ling for a while, then spoke again, "So, what is the reason for the bottleneck?"

"It can't really be considered a bottleneck..." Ling sighed again, "Although the Living Slug Immortal always said that one must first clarify one's [heart] before being recognized by nature, and then naturally become the inheritor of the ancient immortal arts, but from what I heard from her, when she first started practicing the ancient immortal arts, she didn't know what [heart] was, she just did as she said, and naturally became an immortal.

In other words, even if you are not clear about it, they will naturally see your [heart] and lead you into the path of practice. The person who is led into practice will also formally clarify himself in the subsequent practice..."

Youlu's cat-like face suddenly turned into a human-like puzzlement, "So, what is the bottleneck?"

"How should I put it... I feel like the natural energy has a subtle dislike for me, but I can't really put my finger on it. If I must describe it, it's like a wife seeing the lipstick marks on her husband's collar, but for the sake of the family she has to help her husband cover it up and endure it, but still can't help but feel a sense of dislike."

Youlu: ...Your feeling is indeed subtle.

"Because I'm really too concerned, I haven't had a good rest for a long time - if this goes on, I'll be distracted even during the battle..." Ling raised his hand and touched the back of his neck, looking a little distressed, "But how should I put it? Because of Yi, my initial impression of those immortals was not very good. Compared to them, I prefer to communicate with the tailed beasts - how about it, can you help me ask?"

"That stinky fox probably won't want to bother with you. Let me ask the octopus for you."

"Well, please."

Yulu nodded and withdrew his spirit from the Monster Pearl - the pearl was convenient, but once it was inside it it would completely isolate it from the outside world, and it would not be able to contact the other tailed beasts in the Tailed Beast Space.

After a short while, the giant cat beside Ling opened its eyes of different colors again, "The octopus agreed. It just so happens that it plans to go see the lazy turtle recently. It will wait there for a while."

"That's great." Ling put down the book in his hand and leaned into Youlu's warm and soft fur. "It's a pity, but this war should be over soon - alas, I haven't had enough fun yet."

Youlu glanced at the book, "Huh~ But according to what you have sorted out now, there will be a lot of battles later, right? Let me see - Pond of Blood, Hagoromo, Sarutobi, Hinata, Kaguya - there are still a lot of them."

"Yes, there are many more." Ling gently stroked the handwriting on the scroll with his fingers, and finally stopped at the words related to the Blood Pool. "But before that, we have to eliminate some guys who don't follow the rules... Well, it's time to contact Yashu. After all, he has been in the capital for so long, and it's almost time to reap the fruits of his labor."
