Myoki Mountain.

High in the air, Jiraiya stood on a sharp rock mass with his eyes closed, maintaining his balance with only one toe, practicing Chakra's control.

Now, he has temporarily forgotten the wine and beautiful women of dogs and horses, and has devoted himself to cultivation after a long absence.

Since the last war, Jilai has also seen the vast sky outside Konoha and broken the slightly impetuous mentality in the past, and began to precipitate and polish himself.

In the past, Jiraiya can't be said to be invincible in Konoha either, but there are no more ninjas who can fight him head-on.

Except for Fan Ma, Sandai, Tuan Zang, Qimu Shuo Mao and others who can steadily suppress him, Orochimaru and Tsunade are on a par with him, and the rest of the Konoha ninja have not taken it to heart.

This is indeed an accurate evaluation, but Zilai's current strength is also a little embarrassing, and it is less than the top and more than the bottom.

Go up, Shadow, but he lacks enough critical skills to support him to reach this level.

Let's take a look down, a group of characterless upper ninjas, and they can defeat opponents of this level with plenty of chakra.

Since you can't see any hope of progress, and you have a good position, let's rest for a while.

This is the mentality of Jiraiya before.

But in the last war, he was surprised to find that he was far behind the powerhouses in the first echelon of the ninja world.

Whether it was facing Hanzo head-on, or the sneak attack of the two-tailed human pillar force, Jiraiya thought hard for a long time and kept reviewing these battles, but he could only get a frustrating fact.

"With his current means of warfare, he really can't be the enemy of these oversized enemies..."

Today's Fan Ma, in his eyes, his strength is even more like a fog, and he is already in a realm that he can't evaluate.

Although Fan Ma is his best friend, he has always been faintly competing with him in his heart, and he does not allow his strength to have such a big gap with Fan Ma.

The source of this obsession may be his pride as a disciple of the Hokage, his natural character of not admitting defeat, or maybe it is because of Tsunade's choice...

As the only descendant of Miaomu Mountain, cultivating immortal arts is the fastest way for him to break through his boundaries.

Although the practice of immortal art is to kill people.

Behind him, the rows of stone toads of different shapes, the guys who once coveted the power of immortal magic and failed, have turned into a part of the landscape of Miaomu Mountain.

But now Zilai has no choice, and if you want to gain power, you must have to pay...

Time passed little by little, and he did not feel tired, as if he had integrated into nature and forgotten himself.

I don't know how long it toad, a short toad couple jumped under the rock pillar, and shouted to Jiraiya:

"It's time to eat, little self!"

Jiraiya slowly opened his eyes and came out of this ethereal state, with a smile hanging on the corner of his mouth.

Jumping off the rock pillar, he said with full vitality:

"Yo! Fukasaku Boss、Shima-sama-sama-s.e.,Is it time to have dinner again! ”

But when I saw the pot of worms that were still wriggling, my face was suddenly covered with black lines.

Jiraiya turned his head and refused a little bluntly:

"If I can, I'd better choose to continue cultivating, it seems that I'm not very hungry all of a sudden..."

Shima Immortal jumped up, slapped Jiraiya's neck fiercely, and reprimanded:

"Why are you still that picky eater, these insects that grew up in Miaomu Mountain, others can't eat them if they want to, you have to cherish them!"

With a long sigh, he reluctantly lit a fire, roasted the colorful insects on the food plate, and sighed in his heart:

"Everything in Miaomu Mountain is good, good mountains, good water, good scenery, it's this food, it's really Uncle Ben who can't accept it..."

"It's not that these insects are unpalatable, but I really miss the girls who hugged me and fed me tempura and sake!

”

And the Fukasaku Immortal on the side seemed to see what Jiraiya was thinking, picked up a cane, and slapped him fiercely.

"You kid, you're thinking about those things that have violated the three ninja bans! Practice your immortal arts! ”

Jiraiya jumped up in pain, but he didn't refute anything, just responded in a low voice:

"Boss Shenzuo, the cultivation of immortal art is too difficult, at this pace, I'm afraid I won't be able to use it in actual combat for a few years..."

Fukasaku Immortal also softened his attitude and gently patted Jiraiya's calf to show comfort.

"There are very few people who have mastered the use of natural energy from ancient times to the present. Don't be discouraged, little self, your talent is already one of the best. ”

"This kind of effort is worth it, after mastering the immortal mode, not only can you have a strength that surpasses your own several times, but the power of ninjutsu will also be multiplied."

Jiraiya nodded silently, and began to chew the barbecue bugs in his mouth, but he also felt a sweetness.

"The chicken tastes like it's crunchy, is it because I'm used to eating it, it tastes unexpectedly good..."

While recovering his strength through eating, he silently pondered the key to practicing immortal arts.

For him now, he can already sense the existence of natural energy, but he has not yet carried out real immortal cultivation, which is also the most dangerous step.

"Mix natural energy into the body to create a powerful immortal chakra!"

The vast majority of immortal cultivators, many of whom are amazingly talented, but most of them have fallen at this step.

Fukasaku Immortal looked at Jiraiya, feeling the remaining natural energy in his body, and couldn't help but nodded:

"It is worthy of being the inheritor of Miaomu Mountain, and in less than a year, he can perceive the natural energy so easily."

"It's time to take a step, and that's the key to the success of the prophecy..."

The Shima Immortal on the side saw the satisfied expression of the Fukasaku Immortal, and then patted Ziyalai and said:

"You've done a good job of preparing for cultivating the Immortal Mode, Xiao Zilai."

"Next, it's the most critical step, do you have confidence?"

Hearing this, Jiraiya put down the skewers in his hand, but did not respond immediately.

At this moment, many scenes flashed in his mind.

Cumulonimbus poisonous clouds that cover the sky and shelter from the rain, instantaneous techniques that cannot be caught with the naked eye...

With terrifying power, the tailed beast jade that can explode the mountain...

Fan Ma and the three generations of Thunder Shadow's momentum that can shatter the earth with just their momentum...

Jilai also let out a long breath, looked at the two toad immortals with firm eyes, and said in a deep voice:

"I'm ready, big sister."

"There are too many strong people in this ninja world, and you can't do things without strength."

"Even if I am looking for the Child of Destiny, although I have the guidance of the Great Toad Immortal, I need enough strength to ensure a smooth journey."

The two toad immortals nodded with satisfaction, and then explained the next process to Jiraiya.

And the more he listened, the more he felt that something was wrong, and his brows wrinkled unconsciously.

"How can this immortal mode last for such a short time, and the requirements are too strict, I'm afraid it will be difficult to apply it to actual combat..."

According to Fukasaku Immortal's account, if you want to fight in Immortal Mode, you need to pay attention to at least two issues.

The first one, maintaining a state of "stillness" for a long time, accumulates enough natural energy to condense the immortal chakra...

Second, even if you enter the immortal mode, you must solve the battle within five minutes, otherwise you will deplete the reserves of the immortal chakra.

The human body cannot carry the natural energy that can sustain a long battle.

Jiraiya's face was serious, and he asked the two toad immortals about his confusion, and said:

"If that's the case, then the Immortal mode is difficult to apply to skirmishes, and can only be used as a blocking battle, so you can prepare in advance to face off against powerful enemies."

"I've read the books in Konoha and it's recorded that the first Hokage-sama could instantly enter the immortal mode and maintain it for an endless amount of time, so why is that?"

The Fukasaku Immortal was speechless for a while, and above his drooping eyelids, two cloudy eyeballs drifted away from Jiraiya's gaze.

This question involves Xin Mi, who he has no right to tell Jiraiya. It was the Great Toad Immortal who had not yet determined, about the ultimate mystery of the ninja world!

I could only cough lightly and said slowly:

"The power of the first Hokage, that is a realm that no one has ever touched, and naturally the old man doesn't know how to answer. If it's just a guess, maybe he was born with an affinity for natural energy, right? ”

"Don't worry, little Jiraiya, the old woman and I will stand up for you in the face of a strong enemy. As long as you become more familiar with natural energy, it will not be difficult to apply it in actual combat..."

Seeing that Zilai nodded paradoxically, and continued to fall into deep thought, Shenzuo Immortal secretly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

"Regarding the reincarnation of Lord Asura, don't let Jiraiya know. It's not good for him, just look for the Child of Prophecy..."

As an old toad who has lived for more than 800 years, Fukasaku is all the more clear about the situation in the ninja world.

Between the Thousand Hand Pillars, even among the reincarnations of the Asuras of the past dynasties, its strength is unique.

Without a joint partner or the Nine-Tails, he suppressed the alliance of the Nine-Tails and Indra on his own.

This directly reversed the script of thousands of years, and the Asura who believed in mutual understanding had the strength to destroy the world, and Indra, who was obsessed with his own power, had to go to help.

Since then, the prophecy of the Great Toad Immortal has been confusing, and it was not until ten years ago that the figure of the Child of Prophecy was finally found again, so that Jilai was ready to set off.

But the most outrageous thing is that the Great Toad Immortal woke up three years ago, and said that the Child of Prophecy had fallen into the darkness that could not be found, and he needed to be rescued.

This also made Fukasaku and Shima confused, and even began to question that the big toad immortal was an old lake.

At this moment, a large toad with a large body and a slight underworld style jumped over, it was their son Bunta.

"Dad, Mom, Jiraiya, go to the big toad immortal, his old man has a new prophecy!"

Toad Wentai exhaled a thick puff of smoke and said helplessly.
