Chapter 211: Chapter 209: The Second Step
Chapter 209: The Second Step
"Now… it's time to reap the benefits…"
Feeling that his life force was no longer draining, Baishi let out a quiet sigh of relief.
The previous actions had consumed a considerable amount of his chakra, making it the perfect opportunity to test the efficiency of the Tri-Element Sealing Technique.
With that in mind, Baishi closed his eyes and began extracting chakra from the Nine-Tails and Five-Tails.
Inside the sealed space, the white sphere formed from the Five-Tails and the crimson sphere formed from the Nine-Tails released an abundant amount of tailed beast chakra.
As soon as the chakra emerged, it was immediately decomposed into spiritual and physical energy.
This process was carried out automatically by his Energy Absorption ability.
Next, the extracted energy was assimilated into the surrounding tri-colored energy—black, white, and yellow.
With a single thought, Baishi could merge these energies into his own chakra.
This was one of the primary effects of the Tri-Element Sealing Technique—assimilation.
Of course, assimilation of foreign energy required a dominant presence of original energy in the vicinity.
Baishi had no trouble fulfilling this condition.
He had long wanted to create a storage hub for excess energy to improve the speed of chakra retrieval.
With this technique, he had finally achieved that goal.
Well… almost.
Currently, the sealing space created by the Tri-Element Sealing Technique could only store a little over two-thirds of his total chakra reserves.
The remainder would have to be drawn and fused manually during battle or when needed.
Still, even at its current state, his burst potential had increased significantly.
By eliminating the need for an extraction and conversion step, his chakra supply speed had drastically improved, allowing him to unleash greater bursts of power.
For example, just moments ago, he had suppressed both the Nine-Tails and Five-Tails solely through an explosive release of chakra, forcing them to flee without a fight.
That would have been impossible before.
And this wasn't even his limit.
Once he fully unlocked the chakra nodes in his pathways and lifted his chakra flow restrictions, his explosive power would reach an entirely new level.
That was when the Tri-Element Sealing Technique would reveal its full potential.
Bringing his thoughts back to the present, Baishi ceased his musings and focused entirely on absorbing chakra from the Nine-Tails and Five-Tails.
Before long, his chakra reserves were fully replenished.
After running a quick calculation, Baishi found that the time required for this process was nearly cut in half.
In other words, his ability to extract tailed beast chakra had doubled in efficiency.
While this wouldn't directly double his evolution speed, the time saved would allow him to accomplish much more.
Moreover, his evolution speed was currently limited only by the insufficient chakra supply from the tailed beasts.
He had already squeezed the Nine-Tails and Five-Tails dry in the past.
Though the Tri-Element Sealing Technique had suppressed their life activities, enabling further chakra extraction, the amount gained was still too insignificant to meet his needs.
But now, things were different.
He still had two more tailed beasts— the Four-Tails and the Seven-Tails.
Once they were also sealed within his body, the chakra shortage problem would be solved.
With an ample supply of chakra, not only would his evolution speed double, but it could increase several times over.
After all, rotating between two tailed beasts for chakra extraction was one thing, but rotating between four was a completely different matter.
If planned properly, Baishi could achieve a state of uninterrupted, round-the-clock evolution.
Of course, that depended on whether his body could endure such a pace.
Even with his formidable constitution, capable of going long periods without food or rest, he wasn't yet at the point of complete sleeplessness.
Still, with a rough estimate, his evolution speed would increase by at least threefold.
With that thought, Baishi wasted no more time.
He infused chakra into his space ring, activating the Flying Thunder God: Lightning Guidance seal inscribed upon it.
A spatial rift appeared, and Baishi connected to Firefly through Mind Link Technique, instructing, "Bring him over."
"Yes, my lord," Firefly responded in his mind.
Moments later, Firefly stepped through the spatial rift, bringing along Roshi.
Roshi steadied himself after passing through the rift, suppressing the discomfort of spatial travel. Locking eyes with Baishi, he demanded, "Baishi? What do you want?"
"Hehe~ No need to be so tense. I just need something from you…"
As he spoke, Baishi's gaze shifted to Roshi's abdomen.
A silver gleam flickered across his eyes—his Super Vision: X-Ray ability activating.
Within Roshi's body, Baishi saw a fierce, monstrous face—it was the Four-Tails.
At the same time, inside Roshi's mind, the Four-Tails spoke with unease.
"Roshi, be careful… I sense the Nine-Tails and Five-Tails' chakra."
"Where?" Roshi asked.
Before the Four-Tails could answer, Baishi had already begun his plan.
With a simple hand seal, the Karmic Curse Binding Seal on Roshi was activated.
Immediately, Roshi's body froze, rendering him completely immobile.
Baishi then extended his right hand, forming a claw. The Tri-Element Sealing Technique activated.
In an instant, three chains—manifested from spiritual energy, physical energy, and natural energy—shot forward, piercing Roshi's body and burrowing inside.
"AAAH!"
A painful scream echoed, but it did not come from Roshi—it came from the Four-Tails.
From Baishi's perspective, the chains hadn't harmed Roshi at all; they had targeted the Four-Tails directly.
The yellow chain immobilized the Four-Tails.
The black chain suppressed its consciousness.
The white transparent chain transformed into a massive net and began pulling it out.
Only then did Roshi let out a pained groan.
As the Four-Tails was forcibly extracted, Roshi's life force began to drain at an alarming rate.
Without intervention, he would be dead within minutes.
But Baishi had no intention of letting him die—he still had an experiment to conduct.
After sealing the Four-Tails into the sealing space, Baishi immediately retrieved a small seed.
Infusing it with a vast amount of senjutsu chakra, he nurtured its vitality while modifying it into what he called a Seed of Life.
Compared to previous iterations, this Seed of Life radiated an unprecedented level of vitality.
In fact, due to its exposure to natural energy, it exhibited signs of "demonization," taking on properties beyond ordinary life.
This was Baishi's proposed solution to preserving the lives of Jinchūriki.
If their life force rapidly declined upon losing their tailed beasts, could the introduction of an artificial energy conduit prevent this deterioration?
Gazing at Roshi, whose consciousness was slipping away, Baishi struck his palm against his chest, implanting the 4.0 version of the Seed of Life into his body.
The moment they made contact, the seed embedded itself deep into Roshi's flesh and spirit, forming a complete life cycle within him.
In response, his life force, which had been rapidly fading, stabilized instantly.
