Chapter 480: Falling back and settling for the next best thing

The top floor of the unremarkable "Tongzi Building" was temporarily vacant and was used by Daimaru as a temporary laboratory.

In Sand Hidden Village, this is where you can conduct some not-so-prohibited but dangerous experiments.

In order to conceal people's eyes and ears, even the windows were temporarily sealed, leaving only a heavy stone door for entry and exit, and a silencing barrier that blocked the fluctuations of chakra, making it impossible for outsiders to understand what was going on inside.

In a corner of the room, Chiwa Yami sat on the ground with his knees in his arms, quietly watching Daimaru properly adjust a living puppet in front of him, and then seal the senjutsu chakra he had prepared long ago into it.

The originally ignorant puppet seemed to be given life. It struggled to sit up and moved its limbs unflexibly.

Seeing this scene, Daimaru not only did not show joy, but instead showed a trace of nervousness on his face.

Sure enough, after a few seconds, the puppet, who seemed to have a chance of success, began to have a rippled halo of light all over his body, then quickly disappeared, and finally turned into chakra and exploded.

The originally exquisitely crafted puppet turned into large and small fragments scattered around the room.

"Failed again!" 』

Daimaru waved his hand in disappointment, and the symbiotic cell clusters that were ready to go, like scavengers, swallowed up the scattered fragments of biological puppets.

Not far away, Yemu and Qian, who had expected it, looked like "it's true" and didn't seem surprised at all.

"This is already the fourth stand-in puppet. If we continue the experiment, it will just be a waste of materials..."

Daimaru's face was as dark as water, with a hint of regret in his tone.

"The general direction is wrong. Directly giving magical chakra will not work at all..."

Only the immortal body of the same level can bear such power.

The puppets used as test subjects exploded again and again, which is enough to illustrate the problem.

If Daimaru applied the power of Sage Mode to an ordinary ninja, the final result would probably be death due to being unable to bear it.

Even if Daimaru absorbs the natural energy on his behalf and infuses it into Chi and Yeme, the weak chakra in their bodies cannot balance with the invading natural energy.

If the physique is not up to standard and the amount of chakra is not enough, it will definitely not work to directly encourage the growth.

There are so many who stand on the shoulders of giants, but there are always only a handful of geniuses who can see higher and further.

Daimaru, who holds the power of Sage Mode and the essence of Human Puppetry, still has no way to teach it to others as a stable inheritance.

Yeme and Qian, who have followed Daimaru for a long time and know his style, their main purpose today is to let Daimaru remove the hidden dangers of the curse seal in the body, and then take a look at Daimaru's latest experimental results.

The result, unfortunately, was just a series of failures.

Such a scene made the two people who wanted to get some glory from Daimaru disappointed.

"This can't continue like this! Even in the three major psychic beast holy lands, their success rates are appallingly low. The so-called inheritance is just the path with the highest success rate summarized after countless years of trial and error. Apart from the basic principles , there seems to be no breakthrough, the essence is still a matter of luck..."

Except for those magical senjutsu, there is basically no theoretical system. Those alien immortals with rich experience are certainly much better than Daimaru, but they may not be that clever.

"We really can't use it?"

I came with hope, and although I wasn’t that persistent, the results still made me unhappy.

"If your qualifications and strength are not up to standard, it is definitely impossible to reach the sky with one of your products. You can't even use the method like me of trial and error step by step, then accumulating experience, and slowly approaching success..."

Even a reckless and successful Daiwan cannot guarantee that he will be able to use it skillfully without accidents. It is even more impossible to protect others in the sage mode. Like the White Snake Sage, he gathers a ball of natural energy and penetrates it into the body of the recipient, allowing him to It is easy to survive on its own, but if it fails, it will be a dead end.

"However, you don't have to worry too much. Immortal mode may not work if you achieve it in one step, but if you take it step by step, there is still hope..."

The Curse Seal is a ready-made example, and Orochimaru has set a good example for Daimaru.

The gap between ordinary ninja and sage mode is too big, and there are almost no important intermediate steps. This is the reason why the inheritance of sage mode is too difficult.

After sorting out the training conditions, Daimaru had to regretfully conclude that the most difficult level was not the perception of natural energy, chakra control and balance, but the most basic amount of chakra.

Ninjas are not chivalrous warriors, and chakra is not internal energy. It does not gradually increase with hard training, but becomes more with the improvement of physical fitness and the growth of mental power.

Basically, the upper limit of a person's chakra amount has been limited by his own bloodline. The acquired practice and refining of chakra is a process of gradually realizing the potential.

A "treasure" like Bai Jue's clone, which can provide life energy to gradually nourish the body, slowly improve the quality, and break one's own limits, is really rare.

As for the improvement of mental power, it is even more elusive.

It can be seen that the best way to increase the amount of chakra is to grow healthily with age, supplement it with appropriate exercise, and fully tap your potential. By the time you reach adulthood, it will be basically finalized.

If there is no White Zetsu clone and no mental specialties that allow Daimaru to surpass his own limits, the so-called sage mode is just an elusive dream. Unless he sacrifices his life to become a jinchūriki, there may be a glimmer of hope of success.

Chiwa Yome, who is sixteen or seventeen years old, is still at the end of puberty, but she can already see their limits.

To be honest, Qian and Yeme's qualifications are considered to be above average among ninjas, and they are stronger than most character ninjas.

Therefore, if nothing unexpected happens, most ninjas in the ninja world are born with no chance of sage mode. Their highest achievement is to be able to barely use natural energy to enhance the power of ordinary escape techniques.

After all, only a very small number of talented and lucky guys can successfully practice the immortal mode.

"Whether it is a gift or a projection of power, for you, magical chakra or even natural energy will do more harm than good to you! I need to change my thinking. I cannot teach you ninjutsu or cultivation methods, but increase your ability to break your own shackles. Possibility. To give hope rather than power..."

Yemu and Qian looked at each other and asked with some confusion:

"What do you mean by hope?"

"Regeneration Core!"

As he spoke, Daiwan took out two boxes the size of cans from the storage scroll. There were several small holes on the surface. Dark red energy groups as thick as blood vessels spilled out from the small holes and waved gently...
