Chapter 122: Ice Shines in the Nine States

The matter came to an end for the time being. Danzo on the side said nothing, but looked at Naruto with a deeper look. Feeling Danzo's malice, Naruto looked at him deeply and said in his heart: "Danzo, you have already chosen your death. If you are honest, I will keep you for a while. If you have any ulterior motives, don't blame me for being rude."

It was already late at night when Naruto returned home, and he could not wait to open the system panel. Looking at the two main tasks that had been completed, he felt happy. Ding Congratulations to the host for completing the main task and being promoted to Chunin. The task reward was the Heaven-level top-grade skill "Spiritual Contract and Brilliance Technique".

Description of the technique: This is a magical technique that aims to establish a deep spiritual connection between the spirit beast and its master, allowing both parties to share power and practice together, and to exert a powerful strength far beyond that of each fighting alone. By practicing this technique, the spirit beast and its master will become fighting partners who are connected in mind and share life and death.

This exercise is divided into five stages:

1. Initial Bond: The master and the spirit beast establish a spiritual connection for the first time, and can feel each other's emotions and simple thoughts. Both parties can conduct basic energy transfer, but it is not yet stable and strong enough.

2. Soul Fusion: The spiritual connection between the master and the soul beast is deeper, and they can share some senses, such as vision and hearing. Energy transfer is smoother, and they can support each other in battle, improving their combat effectiveness.

3. Harmony: The minds of both parties reach a high degree of harmony, and they can fully understand each other's thoughts and intentions. At this time, the master can use the special abilities of the spirit beast, and the spirit beast can also use the wisdom and combat experience of the master. The energy fusion of both parties is higher, and joint skills can be performed.

4. Spiritual Brilliance: The power of the master and the spirit beast is completely integrated to form a unique spiritual brilliance power. This power is powerful and mysterious, and can cause great damage to the enemy. The mental connection between the two parties is indestructible and can remain stable even in extremely dangerous situations.

5. Tonghui Saint Realm: At this level, the master and the spirit beast can be completely integrated. Their power is enough to shake the world, and the power of the spirit reaches its peak, and they can display powerful magical powers that can destroy the world.

Seeing this technique, Naruto felt a complex emotion, both regretful and pleasantly surprised. Unfortunately, this was not a technique specifically designed for practicing spirit beasts, but the pleasant surprise was that it could greatly improve the compatibility between himself and the spirit beasts. Imagine that when practicing to the highest level, he could even merge with the spirit beasts and unleash even more powerful power, which was extremely rare.

Then Naruto continued to submit the second main task, and a crisp reminder sounded: "Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the main task: Find Tsunade and bring her back to serve as Hokage. The task reward is the lower-grade heavenly magic "Ice Shining Kyushu."

Seeing this technique, Naruto's heart skipped a beat. Then Naruto couldn't wait to learn this technique directly. Instantly, the introduction and practice method of this technique flooded into his mind.

Ice Shining in Nine Provinces

1. When activated, a strong cold air bursts out from the user in an instant, and the surrounding air seems to be frozen instantly, forming an extremely cold area within a hundred meters. In this area, the enemy's movement speed will be greatly slowed down, as if they were trapped in an icy quagmire.

2. Then, countless sharp ice spikes protrude from the ground, like a forest of ice spikes, causing piercing damage to enemies within the range. These ice spikes are not only extremely sharp, but also contain powerful ice power. Enemies pierced by them will feel their bodies rapidly corroded by the cold, their blood flow slows down, and their movements become even slower.

3. At the same time, large flakes of ice crystals and snowflakes will fall from the sky. These snowflakes may look beautiful, but they are actually deadly dangerous. Each snowflake is like a small ice bomb. When it touches the enemy, it will explode instantly, releasing a powerful ice shock, repelling the enemy and causing additional damage.

4. During the duration of the skill, the user will be protected by a layer of ice shield, which can not only resist the enemy's attack, but also enhance the user's defense and cold resistance. The user can move freely within the skill range, control ice spikes and snowflakes to attack the enemy, just like the god of ice and snow descending to dominate this cold battlefield.

Naruto stared at the introduction of "Ice Shining in Nine Provinces" in a daze, and was deeply shocked. "Powerful, very powerful! It is indeed a heaven-level technique." He muttered to himself.

The function of this technique is more like a powerful field. In this field, it can not only effectively restrict the enemy's actions, put them in trouble and make it difficult for them to exert their full strength, but also launch fierce attacks. What surprised Naruto the most was that it could actually enhance his own defense.

"So terrifying!" Naruto exclaimed again. He knew that with this technique, his strength in battle would be greatly improved.

Moreover, this is an ice-attributed spell that is highly compatible with itself. If it is combined with the additional properties of the fruit and equipment, its power will definitely be even higher. Moreover, this spell is only in its introductory stage now. If it is fully developed in time, its power will be beyond imagination.

At that moment, Naruto's original bad mood disappeared, and Danzo's hateful appearance was instantly erased from his mind.

In the dark base of the Root, Danzo stood there with a sinister look on his face, silent. After meeting Naruto today, coupled with the information he had recently collected about Naruto, all of this caused a storm in his heart. Naruto not only has completely controlled the power of the Nine-Tails, but even the First and Second Hokages summoned by Orochimaru through the summoning technique could not defeat him. Naruto's strength is like an insurmountable peak, which makes Danzo deeply afraid. The little kid who was once insignificant in his eyes has grown into a terrifying behemoth without him noticing.

Danzo's mind was full of thoughts. He knew that if he did not take action, his plan and even his life might be threatened. After a brief contemplation, he no longer hesitated and immediately gave orders to the root members lurking in the dark, asking them to go all out and prepare for the response.

His order was passed down among the root members like lightning. In this extremely short period of time, every root member was ready and on high alert. Those members who were originally scattered in various places to carry out tasks also received the emergency recall order through special communication methods, and they were rushing back to the root base as quickly as possible.

Inside the stronghold, the atmosphere was so heavy that it seemed as if water could drip down. These well-trained ninjas silently checked their equipment, adjusted their ninja tools, and adjusted their states. A plan against Naruto was about to unfold.
