Chapter 203: The Real Waterfall
The Fourth Raikage obviously had no intention of treating them to a meal, nor did he have any intention of resting. He directly dragged them to the depths of the mountains in the central area of the island.
There are many strange rocks here, many of which are calcium carbonate, collagen and other substances accumulated by giant turtles during their long growth.
There are so many of them that they have formed rolling mountains.
And the so-called real waterfall is in the deepest part of the mountains.
The real waterfall is not very high, about five meters wide and more than ten meters high. Judging from its scale, it is not magnificent at all. It is just a small waterfall.
"This is impossible!"
The moment she saw the real waterfall, Ino was ten times more excited than all the others combined. She pulled the sleeve of the senior sister with big white legs and almost made her stagger.
"Sister, did you see that? This is a stream of water formed by the convergence of completely purified spiritual energy. It is hard to imagine that spiritual energy can reach such a high level and even interfere with matter from the spiritual side! It's a miracle!"
She looked amazed.
Jingyin hugged Tutun and laughed dryly: "Yes, yes, it's really amazing."
Tuntun kept nodding.
The Fourth Raikage took two steps back and asked in a low voice: "Bi, did you understand what the little girl said? Isn't this just some waterfall water?"
"Little girl? Little thing? Little bastard, little fool from Konoha Village, yeah!" Killer Bee raised his right hand, bent his middle finger and ring finger, and made a "love" gesture.
"Asshole! I'm talking to you!"
After being hit on the head by the Fourth Raikage's iron fist, Killer Bee finally took it a little more seriously. He was stunned for a second, and then replied: "Xiaoba said that it was probably what the little one said."
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?!"
"Brother, you didn't ask me?"
The ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village are just a bunch of muscle maniacs. When it comes to physical training and ninjutsu, Ino has no chance of winning against them. The gap is huge. But when it comes to spiritual energy, they are not even worthy of carrying Ino's shoes.
The Fourth Raikage looked at the waterfall and thought it was a waste to just let the water flow away like that. However, he was not a Jinchūriki, and he did not cultivate spiritual energy, so he could not think of what use this thing would be to him.
Ino was amazed and expressed her sincere admiration for the Hidden Cloud Village and Kame Island. The Fourth Raikage didn't know how to respond, so he just dealt with it with "hmm" and "ah".
Tsunade whispered a few words to her. The master and disciple had already told her twice about the precautions to take when spiritualizing, and now they told her again, then handed her a bottle of potion.
Feeling uneasy, she even wanted to take off her crystal necklace and give it to her.
Ino declined. "Don't do that! If you don't have enough Asura Chakra, whoever wears your necklace will die! I am greedy, but I value my life more. I want to live a few more days! You keep it for yourself."
Ino drank the potion made of rare substances such as mandrake, vital ginseng, red salamander, giant vine and eternal mud in one gulp.
The medicine was bitter, but it had a certain cohesive effect. Ino felt that her spiritual energy was slowly gathering from a mist state and was gradually becoming more solid.
She walked to the platform in front of the waterfall and sat down cross-legged.
While telling himself to focus, he slowly opened the Yang seal and released the Yin chakra that had been accumulated during this time.
The art of spiritualization requires a large amount of Yin chakra, and potions can assist in the condensation. The real waterfall can help one see the darkness in one's heart, and it is also an excellent place to refine spiritual energy.
But because of the biomagnetic field of the giant turtle on Turtle Island, this place is more like a double-edged sword.
Unless Ino's spiritual energy is stronger than that of this giant turtle that has lived for who knows how long, the higher her spiritual energy is, the greater the impact will be.
She completely released her Yin chakra, resisting the influence of Turtle Island on herself while using the environment to refine her spiritual energy, allowing the spiritual energy to break free from the shackles of the body little by little, completing the last step of the spiritualization technique.
When her spiritual energy gathers together to form a new chakra aggregation method and her consciousness is completely separated from her body, she becomes a true spirit.
A spirit is not a soul, and it can wander around in the sun without any impact.
The Six Paths Sage is a spirit. His body died because of the extraction of the Ten Tails, but his consciousness is still there. His wish has not been fulfilled, so he is stuck between life and death, neither going up nor down. Do you think he is alive or dead? Don't ask. Asking is the characteristic of the Sage.
After Obito died, he was able to send the Sharingan to Kakashi through the air. This is also the characteristic of a sage turning into a spirit.
Ino is not able to do such a powerful thing now. Obito is the second Ten-Tails Jinchuriki in the history of the ninja world. Even if his time was shorter, he is also a sage. The realm of a sage and what he can do are simply beyond the understanding of a mortal like Ino.
Sages can absorb energy through the tailed beasts and human emotions to make up for their own losses. Their energy source is already external energy.
The energy that makes up Ino's spirit body is still chakra, and the essence of chakra is still a mixture of physical energy and spiritual energy. It is internal energy, which cannot be changed at present.
The spiritual energy can be extracted from consciousness, but the physical energy still depends on the body. In other words, once the part of the spirit that belongs to the physical energy is consumed, she must return to the body to replenish it.
Leaving the body aside, the art of spiritualization is to take another approach, completing the process of relying on chakra to allow the soul to return from acquired to innate state.
The snake that Orochimaru used to be when he was reincarnated was actually a spirit in some sense, but the key to reincarnation is the word "transformation", which requires very little for the shaping of the spirit. In order to successfully reincarnate, he abandoned too many things, not to mention the weak period and the damage to his soul. In the end, even his personality changed. An honest and blessed Orochimaru, an Orochimaru who can't run like a ninja and can only swing his arms to run like an ordinary person, is that still Orochimaru? He can be regarded as a different person.
The requirements for the Reincarnation of the Dead are relatively low, and it is a completely predatory way of immortality. It snatches other people's talents, other people's bloodline limits, and other people's memories. This is an evil way of taking too big a step and ending up with a big loss.
The key to the art of spiritualization is transformation, absorbing the essence and turning it into one's own nourishment, drinking the wine sip by sip and walking the road step by step.
Every spiritualization is a process of making oneself purer and raising the level of life. This process is slow but steady.
Ino gradually separated herself from her perception of the outside world. She could no longer hear the voices from Shizune and Tuntun. She immersed all her mind into the deepest part of her spiritual world. The chakra in her body began to spiritualize for the first time according to the trajectory of the spiritualization technique.
