Chapter 9: Spirit Meditation Method

One Month Later
[You've gone through numerous medical books, combining knowledge from your past life, and after in-depth research, you've created the perfect foundational medicine recipe.]
"Phew! Finally done! This will speed up my growth!"
With a smile on his face, Uchiha Kira looked at the new medicine recipe in his mind.
Although he had the protection of his parents, being in such a dangerous world, with a war potentially breaking out at any moment, he really didn't feel safe.
Improving his own strength as soon as possible was the most important thing.
Immediately, Kira wrote down the recipe, got up, and went out of the study to find his mother.
He handed the recipe to her and said, "Mom, this is the perfect foundational medicine recipe I created for myself. It has no side effects, and its effectiveness is nearly twice as strong as the previous Uchiha foundational medicine recipe I made. You can use it once a day."
"Oh?"
Uchiha Mika was startled and quickly took the recipe, examining it. After a moment, she muttered, "As expected, it's even more profound! There's so much here I can't understand!"
"You're amazing, kid!"
"I'll get everything ready for you as soon as possible!"
The side effects had been reduced to almost nothing—her son was truly a genius.
She could already imagine that after a few years of using this medicine, her son would become an extraordinary miracle, surpassing all his peers.
"Great! Thanks, Mom! Please try to buy the ingredients separately, and buy some other herbs to mix in, just in case the recipe leaks!"
Kira nodded, giving some final instructions.
This recipe was of great importance.
"You!" Mika smiled and ruffled her son's hair. "I've been a medical Chunin for years, and worked in the medical field. Do you think I don't understand these things? Don't worry!"
"Also, stop spending all your time holed up in the study. You should get out sometimes, or you'll make yourself sick!"
"I know you don't like playing with people your age, but don't you like that girl, Mikoto? Let her take you out for a walk or something. It'll be fine."
It seemed the first elder had intentions for Mikoto and Kira to get together, and Mika thought she might as well try to help them spend more time together and figure out each other's feelings early on.
At least, if it wasn't a good match, they could decide quickly.
"Alright, alright!"
Kira smiled and nodded, then returned to his study.
As for him and Mikoto, with his keen mental abilities and the fact that his parents hadn't paid much attention, he had known for a while.
"If you've given me this chance, and Mikoto is willing, then I won't let you, Fugaku, take Mikoto away! Heh!" Kira sneered in his mind.
In his view, Fugaku wasn't worthy of Mikoto.
In fact, Fugaku wasn't even qualified to be clan leader.
With the current state of the Uchiha clan, someone as weak and indecisive as Fugaku wasn't fit to be the leader during these turbulent times.
The reason the Uchiha clan had fallen in the future timeline was also tied to Fugaku.
You might argue it was because of the higher-ups in Konoha or because of Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi's relationships.
But weren't those issues, in the end, also Fugaku's fault?
Shisui was a genius within the clan, and Itachi was his own son.
When both of them made those choices, wasn't it also a result of Fugaku's failure in education?
Such a trash leader.

In the following months
Kira continued learning more medical books and medical knowledge while undergoing the foundational medicine baths.
At the same time, he didn't forget to practice his instinctive skill every day, using a major cycle to absorb the innate energy, which gradually accumulated more and more in his body.
His meridians and bones began improving rapidly.
And his height shot up too.
[Based on the growth pattern of your spiritual power, and combining medical ninjutsu knowledge, past-life memory palace meditation, and various other meditation techniques, you have a sudden epiphany and created the Spirit Meditation Method.]
[Spirit Meditation Method: In the mind, use spiritual power as a pen to sketch and visualize the memory palace, honing both the quality and quantity of your spiritual power.]
"Done! Let's try it out!"
Kira digested the Spirit Refining Meditation Method in his mind and immediately sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began practicing it.
He used his spiritual power as a pen and slowly sketched the memory palace.
During the process, he felt resistance and difficulty, and at the same time, his spiritual power quickly drained away.
Kira's spiritual power far exceeded that of ordinary people. Even before birth, he could project his spiritual power outside his body. Now, at just over a year old, his spiritual power was growing rapidly.
But the technique consumed it quickly. After just half an hour, Kira couldn't continue. His face turned pale, and he opened his eyes, looking exhausted.
"Whew! This is difficult! With my spiritual power, I can barely sketch a rough outline. I've just about reached the first level, so I'll need to keep accumulating and improving!"
Kira thought to himself.
But this wasn't the time to dwell on it. His head was spinning from the overexertion of his spiritual power, so he immediately began practicing the recovery part of the Spirit Refining Meditation Method, focusing his mind to restore his energy.
Yes, the Spirit Meditation Method didn't just hone spiritual power—it also had a corresponding recovery technique that could accelerate the restoration of spiritual power multiple times over.
Over an hour passed, and under the recovery technique, Kira's spiritual power was finally fully restored.
He opened his eyes and felt his energy, smiling in delight. "Sure enough, the Spirit Refining Method is effective! My spiritual power has not only solidified, but its quantity has increased by about 10%. The effect is excellent!"
Of course, Kira understood that this was just the first time he practiced the technique, so the results were more pronounced. The subsequent effects would naturally diminish.
After all, as the quality and quantity of his spiritual power increased, further improvements would only become harder.
But it was still enough.
After all, there wasn't a true, complete method for improving spiritual power in the ninja world.
Even clans like the Yamanaka or Nara, which primarily focused on Yin-style techniques, didn't have such a perfected method.
With the Spirit Refining Meditation Method, refining spiritual power would become part of Kira's daily routine.

That night,
When the family returned home, Kira specifically invited Mikoto over. He then pulled out a scroll that recorded the Spirit Refining Meditation Method and placed it on the table.
Looking around, he said, "This is the Spirit Meditation Method I recently created. It can enhance the quality and quantity of your spiritual power with daily practice. Everyone, please make sure to study it and practice it!"
"What? Enhance spiritual power?"
Kira's family and Mikoto were all stunned.
Uchiha Ken and Mika quickly grabbed the scroll and confidently read it.
Then, Uchiha Ken looked at his son seriously and asked, "Who else have you shared this with?"
