Chapter 328 The road ahead

After a few minutes, Ukon's injury was finally stabilized, Daiwan expelled the natural energy from his body, and he let go of his slightly nervous mind.

"My ability to withstand natural energy now far exceeds that of Ukon, but I still cannot reach the level of practicing sage mode..."

Being able to use the second state of the Curse Seal, Ukon's qualifications are definitely not bad, not to mention that he also has the blood inheritance limit that is very suitable for the Curse Seal Chakra. Originally Daimaru thought that such conditions were only one step away from the Sage mode.

But this seemingly within reach gap is as difficult to cross as a natural chasm.

"What's the difference? Is it really impossible to avoid the problem?" If you are not the direct bloodline of the Six Paths Sage, you are completely unable to touch the core power of the ninja world? 』

His own mental strength and chakra power are considered strong enough, and his physical fitness is not bad. With the help of Ukon and White Zetsu's clones, even if he can't keep up with Uzumaki Naruto, he won't be able to even touch the edge of sage mode. .

But the fact is that it is very difficult to access and control natural energy.

There was a gap, Daimaru admitted, but it was definitely not that big.

"It's not that my strength is too poor, it's that I used the wrong method! 』

After thinking for a long time, Daimaru also had some vague ideas.

"Furthermore, the natural energy I extracted is so destructive to Ukon's body! Why, is it an energy conflict? 』

This is not like natural energy harming Ukon, but rather like natural energy and cursed chakra repelling each other, causing Ukon's body to be unable to bear it and tend to collapse.

"There is a difference between the natural energy that I sensed and extracted, and the natural energy that Ukon's curse seal extracted, and are even incompatible? 』

Daimaru, who was slightly enlightened, once again gathered natural energy in his palm, gathering it into a small crimson flame, and then poured a little bit of the chakra and natural energy collected in the second state of Ukon's Curse Seal into it.

A clear hissing sound sounded, like blocking a test tube filled with hydrogen with your thumb, bringing it close to the alcohol lamp and then letting it go. It burned violently but did not cause an explosion.

"Daimaru, what happened?"

Downstairs, mother Wu Ye asked after hearing the sound.

"It's nothing serious, don't worry..."

"Then...be careful and don't practice ninjutsu at home..."

When he was a child, the naughty Daimaru practiced ninjutsu at home, but he broke a lot of furniture.

"knew!"

This small experiment did not cause any serious consequences. Daimaru protected the fragile books not far away in time, and the impact of the airflow did not cause damage to the room.

Different types of natural energy are not necessarily compatible. The natural energy that Daimaru sensed was not suitable for practicing the Snake Immortal Technique.

By analogy, it is not without reason that the Toad Immortal Technique and the Snake Immortal Technique have different performances after successful practice.

The natural energy generated by the collective will of all things in the ninja world is compared to oil. The big snake in Ryuji Cave refines the diesel oil and uses its own chakra to ignite it to practice snake senjutsu. The toad in Mt. Myoboku refines the gasoline and uses its own chakra to ignite it. Practice the Toad Immortal Technique.

But Daimaru didn't know anything, so he tried it directly with crude oil. It was difficult to control and ignite. It was much more difficult to practice the Sage Mode than the Snake Immortal Technique and the Toad Immortal Technique.

"It's troublesome!" No wonder it is so difficult for ninjas without inheritance to use natural energy. Without mastering the "fractionation filtration" technology, they cannot get suitable "fuel"..."

You don't have to think about Toad Oil Daimaru. Going to Ryūchi Cave is a narrow escape. It's not worth the risk. The Shiggou Forest is obviously not in Daimaru's style.

Using curse seals is not a long-term solution and is too risky.

However, there are exceptions, such as Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo's celestial art, which was originally passed down from the great toad sage in Mt. Myouki. What he finally cultivated was not the toad senshu but the Six Paths sage mode.

As long as you have enough talent, you can do whatever you want without any scruples, and some shackles and constraints can be broken through.

Unfortunately, Daimaru doesn't have that ability.

Moreover, such aimless attempts are not only inefficient but also dangerous.

"The White Snake Sennin has the Snake Senjutsu, the Big Toad Sennin has the Toad Senjutsu, and the Six Paths Sennin has the Six Paths Senjutsu. When will I be able to figure out the "Daimaru Senjutsu" that suits me..."

With a wry smile, Daimaru put away the clones of Ukon and Shirzetsu, as well as the remnants of Ebisu Shrine, and strolled downstairs.

"Mother, I'm going out to get some fresh air. I'll be back later for dinner..."

"Well, don't be too late..."

Daiwan responded casually, pushed open the windproof curtain and walked out.

The afternoon wind and sand calmed down a little, and the salty smell with a rough breath penetrated into the heart along with the breeze.

Daimaru, who has long been accustomed to the climate of Sunagakure Village, frees his mind, follows his heart, and moves forward as he pleases.

I don’t know how long it took, but I walked to Daimaru on the stone wall of the village, leaned against the parapet, and looked at the sunlight that was gradually setting in the west.

Today's Daimaru is still well-known among Suna ninjas, otherwise it would not be possible for him to come here to watch the sunset so smoothly.

From time to time, patrolling ninjas passed by, and occasionally Daimaru said hello to some familiar colleagues.

"Hey, what are you doing here?"

Suddenly, Daimaru, who was squinting his eyes to watch the setting sun slowly set, heard a familiar female voice.

"Temari! What are you doing here?"

"I asked you first..."

Temari took off the three-star fan from her back and put it aside, then leaned back like a big pill, bathing in the sunset.

"This is the place where I often watch the sunset for many years! This is the first time I see you here..."

"I just walked around casually, the scenery here is nice..."

"I just walked around and arrived at this place. I really had a lot of time..."

If it were someone else, Temari would have to wonder if she deliberately investigated her own habits and then created a chance encounter here, but Daimaru probably didn't have the patience to wait for someone else.

"I heard that you are already a Jonin..."

"Yeah! It was signed in the morning, and you'll know it in the afternoon. You're so well-informed..."

"You must at least have some awareness of a high-level ninja. How is it possible that no one pays attention to a jounin who is young and has a bright future?"

Temari shook her head and sighed,

"Anyway, congratulations..."

"Thanks!"

Daimaru chuckled and said,

"You should be able to catch up soon..."

"I'll lend you some good words..."

Although she was still just a genin, Temari didn't feel that the gap between herself and Daimaru was too big. She would be promoted sooner or later, so she didn't feel jealous.

"I usually come here when I'm worried. Have you encountered any difficulties?"

"Um!"

Daimaru replied,

"Confusion in practice, I can't find the way ahead..."
