Chapter 34: Above the Grey Mist (Ask for Votes!) )
This night, Xie Mao slept deeply.
He couldn't sleep, but with the help of meditation, he still fell asleep deeply.
Xie Mao opened his eyes at five o'clock the next day, and he was in good spirits, and there was almost no strange feeling in his body, but it was not so relaxed.
After washing, Xie Mao entered his puppet workshop.
The puppet that had just been made last time was still on the table, and next to it were two brand-new, almost finished puppets, Father and Mother.
During the time Xie Mao was injured, Chiyo was not only in charge of medical work, but also cooperated with Ebizo to recreate these two symbolic puppets.
Xie Mao checked it a little and found that compared to his original two puppets, the newly created puppets had more mechanisms, which was obviously to adapt to Xie Mao's increased strength.
In fact, the puppet is too complicated and will make me scramble...... Xie Mao retracted his gaze and sat down at his workbench.
He wanted to try to make a puppet of his own, preferably more defensive than Father and Mother.
Before Sequence 5, Xie Mao, who lacked the ability to fight head-on, would inevitably rely on puppets, so if he was proficient in the skill of making puppets, it would also be of great benefit to the skills of manipulating puppets.
Moreover, the puppet you make yourself will be the most comfortable puppet.
Win hemp.
Most of the puppets in this workshop were made by "Scorpion" and Chiyo, even if he inherited the memory of "Scorpion", Xie Mao still didn't think that those puppets were made by himself.
There were plenty of parts, materials, and mechanisms in the workshop, and Xie Mao was busy for more than two hours, and only stopped when he felt hungry.
The puppet in his hand is not only more complete in appearance, but also has a third of the mechanism installed.
This can already be used against the enemy, but it is not strong enough.
Goo~ Xie Mao touched his stomach, stood up and said to himself: "Chiyo went out without saying hello to me?" ”
Xie Mao left the workshop and went down to the hall on the first floor, where he saw the breakfast set on the table, and when he got closer, he saw a piece of paper pressed under the plate.
Xie Mao picked up the paper and read:
"Grandma is glad that you can be so focused on the puppet, but don't forget to eat breakfast, and there will be someone in charge of lunch and dinner afterwards."
Xie Mao raised his eyebrows slightly.
Are you worried that I will pin my grief on the puppet and create a puppet that looks like Uncle Sen? Xie Mao shuddered and shook his head slightly, he was not so extreme, he just felt that the current ninja world was a little cruel and needed to be changed.
But change requires strength, and ideals without power are just empty talk.
Xie Mao quickly finished breakfast and came to the backyard.
I just got assassinated, and there should be ninjas protecting me these days...... Xie Mao frowned slightly, under such protective surveillance, he was not suitable for practicing something too basic.
However, this was not difficult for Xie Mao at all, he thought about it and decided to practice those techniques that the "scorpions" were not proficient enough in, especially the techniques used to save his life.
For example, teleportation.
Theoretically, all techniques that can achieve the effect of instantaneous body can be called instantaneous technique, this technique is essentially the effect of consuming chakra to achieve high-speed movement, so there are many types of instantaneous techniques, the simplest and most ordinary instantaneous technique is only D-level ninjutsu, which is not difficult to learn, and the advanced point of instantaneous technique involves changes in the nature of chakra, such as water instantaneous body, fog instantaneous body, sand instantaneous body, etc., and the effect of avoiding damage is better.
More advanced instantaneous techniques can often be linked to time and space, such as the Flying Thunder God Technique, Heavenly Hand Power, etc., which are similar to time and space transfer, and the speed is so fast that it is almost incomprehensible, and it is difficult to target, which is not the same concept as the general instantaneous technique at all.
Speaking of the basic instantaneous technique, compared with other lower ninjas and some middle ninjas, the instantaneous body technique of the "scorpion" is definitely not bad, but the room for improvement in the instantaneous body technique is too great, and it is normal to ponder and exercise this technique.
Xie Mao first slowly knotted the seal, and after accurately grasping the operation of the chakra, he made the seal faster, and his figure suddenly appeared at the other end of the backyard like a flash, ordinary people's naked eyes could not capture this speed at all, in their eyes, Xie Mao seemed to disappear out of thin air and appear out of thin air.
If you use the teleportation technique frequently, the pressure on the legs will be higher if the chakra is intensively activated...... Xie Mao stood in place and stretched his legs, making sure that there was no strange feeling before performing the operation again.
Brush!
The rolled up wind and sand spread behind Xie Mao, and Xie Mao, who was instantaneous to the other end, took a light breath, compared to the original "scorpion" in his memory, his speed was still slower, but this could be caught up slowly.
In addition, the teleportation technique cannot be used frequently, and even if the chakra is maintained, the body may still be collapsed by practice.
Xie Mao simply added stealth techniques, stand-in techniques, and doppelganger techniques to his cultivation items, anyway, these techniques were all techniques that the "scorpion" didn't pay much attention to and didn't use in the past, even if Xie Mao performed a little worse, there was no problem.
When he was cultivating until noon, Xie Mao, who was very tired, heard more movement in the hall, and he took the time to look at it and found that a middle-aged woman he didn't know was preparing lunch.
Xie Mao didn't pay any attention to it, he continued to cultivate for more than half an hour, waiting for the woman to finish cooking and leave.
After a little rest, Xie Mao went back to the house and ate the steaming rice that had just come out of the pot, and he was quite satisfied, obviously the new chef knew the taste of "Scorpion" very well.
There are some differences between the tastes of Xie Mao and "Scorpion", but fortunately, they are not too much different to swallow.
After eating, Xie Mao entered the workshop again and continued to perfect his puppet.
Xie Mao spent this day in the backyard and in the workshop.
The next day, Chiyo and Xie Mao completed the [Father] and [Mother] together, Xie Mao spent half a day familiarizing himself with the new mechanism of the two puppets, and continued to practice various techniques for the other half a day, and by the way, he pondered the [Silent Sound Technique] he learned from Jiaojung.
A war orphan adopted by a mysterious organization, Kakujon hides in the village of Shayin, knowing only what he wants to do, but not where he belongs.
Jiao Rong can be rated as a special forbearance, the special thing is that his concealment and assassination, if Xie Mao did not have the inspiration warning of the [soothsayer] at that time, and made the first dodge, then he would have died miserably in his own home in broad daylight.
If it weren't for Jiao Rong's weak frontal combat power, his lack of powerful ninjutsu, and his quiet possession by Qing Tong, who he didn't know at all, Xie Mao felt that it would be difficult for him to survive the assassination.
It was really a walk around before the door closed.
At the end of the next day, in the skill column of Xie Mao's system, a series of techniques are listed, and the proficiency is not necessarily high, but at least they will be used.
In order to truly master various techniques, it is certainly not enough to practice alone, and often only honed in real battles can be mastered.
On the third day, Xie Mao was ready to face Fenfu, but before that, he had a ritual to do.
On the day he was assassinated, he lay in the hospital and dreamed of being above the gray mist, which led to a certain guess that Xie Mao would be able to truly enter the gray mist through the ritual.
Yesterday he tested Chiyo with words, making sure that there were really ninjas around him watching and protecting, but it would not involve his privacy.
With this premise, Xie Mao did not hesitate to start preparing for the ceremony.
There should be no spirit world in this world, let alone the gray fog above the spirit world, and only through rituals can we confirm whether the system will transplant the "Source Castle" over...... Xie Mao took out the four pieces of food left from breakfast, namely two pieces of bread, a piece of pastry, and half a bowl of porridge.
Placing the four portions of food in the four corners of the room, Xie Mao stood in the center of the room, took two deep breaths, and then took a focused counterclockwise step out of a square.
As a first step, he sincerely meditated:
"Fusheng Xuanhuang Immortal Venerable."
In the second step, he meditated:
"Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianjun."
In the third step, he gently inhaled and meditated:
"Fusheng Xuanhuang God."
In the fourth step, Xie Mao held his breath and whispered:
"Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun."
After walking through the ceremony, Xie Mao closed his eyes nervously, and in the darkness, he quietly began to wait.
Although the exact outcome is not yet known, his inspiration seems to have a good omen.
After a short wait, the darkness in front of him was drowned in the crimson stained with light, Xie Mao suddenly felt his whole body tense and stiff, and his head stabbed violently, but all this was quickly fading, his body relaxed again, and the sharp pain in his head quickly subsided.
The surroundings became quiet and quiet, with a sense of ethereal atmosphere, Xie Mao exhaled a breath of turbidity, slowly opened his eyes, and the boundless gray mist reflected in his eyes.
It worked!? Xie Mao looked at the gray mist flowing like water in amazement, dotted with crimson "stars", some of these stars were very large, some were as small as dust, or hidden in the depths of the gray mist, or attached to the surface.
These crimson stars... I remember it was used to pull people up the gray mist, but there are few people in this world who have enough personal objects as a medium, why are there so many crimson stars...... Xie Mao hesitantly stretched out his hand, his hand paused for a few seconds before it was about to touch the nearest bright star, and after some consideration, he still touched the surface of the star.
Patches of water rippled out of his body immediately, and when they touched the "crimson", they exploded into a fantastic firework and shined brightly.
Xie Mao watched nervously and expectantly.
