In the next moment, Qin Yi sprang into action, leaping up to land atop a tall tree. He took a deep breath and shouted,
"Shakuton: Daijōhappa (Scorch Release: Great Steaming Explosive Blast)!"
"Whoosh!"
A small fireball shot forward, traveling three meters before slamming hard into the trunk of a tree.
Then...
"Boom!"
An explosion erupted, flames shooting out ten meters into the air. Immediately, invisible whirlwinds followed, slicing through the surrounding branches and leaves in an instant.
First came the explosion, then the sharp wind cutting through the air.
This was Scorch Release!
Where the explosion occurred, nothing remained intact.
"Success!"
Seeing the wood chips and leaves scattered around him, Qin Yi couldn't help but smile.
As he had imagined, after fusing Chakra properties, this new Ninjutsu was even more powerful than he had anticipated.
Though it was just a simple hand seal and a pure release of Chakra's property change, the destructive power was comparable to B-rank Ninjutsu. It also had an element of surprise, making it difficult to defend against!
In a joyous mood, Qin Yi continued his research.
Three hours later, he attempted to control the main and auxiliary positions of Chakra property fusion. The previous Ninjutsu had a roughly equal ratio of Wind and Fire properties.
This time, he made Fire the dominant element and Wind the auxiliary, using the known hand seal language to rearrange a new Ninjutsu.
The hand seals quickly formed, and Qin Yi exhaled.
"Shakuton: Karyūfū (Scorch Release, Fire Stream Wind!)"
"Whoosh!"
The flames shot forward in a wave-like fan shape, reaching three meters, combining the scorching heat with the cutting properties of Wind Release.
After the Ninjutsu was released, Qin Yi noticed a neat notch cut into the branch five meters ahead.
"The heat from the flames, combined with the breakthrough and cutting power of Fūton (Wind Release), is even more effective in terms of distance."
"If Fire Chakra is dominant, the fire effect is enhanced compared to Wind."
"And vice versa!"
A thoughtful look crossed Qin Yi's face as he realized the implications.
The main and auxiliary proportions of Chakra properties affected the distribution of power between the attributes, allowing for more variety and surprise in combat.
As he advanced, Qin Yi continued his research on Scorch Release, listing all the hand seals he was familiar with to develop Ninjutsu suited to himself. While the original story mentioned Scorch Release, his Blood Inheritance was entirely different.
For the next two days, explosions frequently echoed throughout the army's ranks.
During these moments, the soldiers and Three Generals would glance over at the area where Qin Yi was testing his Ninjutsu, watching with envious eyes.
"Your Majesty is amazing. Your comprehension of the World's Strength is much faster than ours!" Qin Lin praised.
"Hehe, I'm not doing too badly either. My Chakra has already reached the Genin level, and I've mastered the Three Bodies Technique and basic Ninjutsu," Yang Yi chuckled.
"Mm, my Chakra has also reached Genin level," Fang Lan nodded in agreement.
"Our progress is pretty good; all our Chakras are at Genin level," Qin Lin added.
"As far as I know, people in this world take years, even decades, to reach Genin-level Chakra training," Yang Yi remarked curiously.
"It depends on talent. It looks like we all have excellent potential," Fang Lan smiled.
"Haha, your rapid training has nothing to do with talent," Gandalf interjected, walking over with a laugh. After a pause, he continued, "Although the Kingdom has suffered a great fall, your foundation is still there. You just need to adjust to a new civilization, which can be a bit uncomfortable."
"So, in the initial stage, training this energy called Chakra will see rapid growth."
The Three Generals exchanged glances, beginning to ponder.
"Does Gandalf mean that after the previous King's departure, the Cultivation Civilization he took with him still left some remnants behind?"
"No, the civilization between Kings is completely independent; it only caused some influence on you."
"Anyway, you don't need to think too much about it. Since the cultivation speed is so fast, it's actually a good thing, isn't it?"
Gandalf smiled.
The Three Generals nodded. In fact, when the previous King was still around, they were experts who could intimidate the whole region. Though they didn't possess supernatural powers related to energy, their physical strength alone was formidable.
However, after the departure of the previous King and the severing of the civilization, they were all reduced back to ordinary people overnight.
Thinking of this, the Three Generals exchanged curious glances at Gandalf. In the entire Royal City, everyone had regressed to the level of normal humans overnight. It seemed that only this old man remained unchanged. Was there some hidden truth behind this?
At this moment, Qin Yi had become completely immersed in the development of Blood Inheritance and could not pull himself away. After using Scorch Release, he realized that this Kekkei Genkai (Bloodline Limit) was far stronger than a single Ninjutsu property.
"C-Rank, B-Rank, I've already developed Ninjutsu suited for my Scorch Release, and I can use it in combat anytime!"
"Next, I want to study the principles behind the Shunshin No Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique)."
Qin Yi's eyes sparkled with excitement. His biggest gains came from the first Shinobi he had captured.
The Shunshin No Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique) was one of them. To him, if he could train the Body Flicker Technique to its peak or modify it into a skill suited to his own use, it would become even stronger.
In the original story, Shunshin No Shisui (Shisui of the Body Flicker) was able to defeat many experts solely through speed.
In reality, the Shunshin No Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique) is a system, not just a specific Ninjutsu. It encompasses space-time techniques, Body Techniques (Taijutsu), and Doton techniques, all of which can achieve teleportation.
For example, Namikaze Minato and Senju Tobirama represent space-time techniques, while Fourth Raikage and Might Guy belong to the Body Technique (Taijutsu) category. There are also figures from the Doton category with teleportation-like abilities, such as Uchiha Shisui.
The Body Flicker Technique Qin Yi acquired was from the Doton category and, like many others, was quite common.
Through hand seals, it combined with his own Chakra properties to achieve a momentary body transfer.
"It's not very effective. The hand seals are complicated, and there's a moment of stiffness after the transfer, making it unsuitable for combat," Qin Yi observed after using the technique.
"Then, let's modify it! The knowledge I have right now is just right for basic development," he mused.
Scorch Release was a technique with explosive power, which was also suitable for Wind-based Doton techniques. Not only did it have power, but it was also great for high-speed movement.
"Short-distance movement. If I use Scorch Release for the Shunshin, it will be faster and more powerful."
Qin Yi's eyes gleamed as he studied the hand seals of the Body Flicker Technique, gradually understanding its hand seal language.
Before long, night fell, and a day passed quietly during their march.
At that moment, Qin Yi's eyes suddenly brightened.
"I understand now!"
"The common Body Flicker Technique has a Wind attribute, and it works by cooperating with the wind. However, it doesn't consider the friction between the body and the air. In the instant of stopping, this friction will explode, causing the body to stiffen!"
"This needs to be modified! Here, I need to change this part, and this part too!"
"Also, when combining with my Scorch Release, I need to add a hidden hand seal. That too, needs to be changed!"
King's talent was truly remarkable. After just one day of research, Qin Yi had already gained some valuable insights.
