MTLNOVEL Chapter 144: The Idea of Creating Sage Art
The moonlight was as clear and cold as water, lightly spilling over the windowsill, like a pool of silver flowing to the ground.
Kamihane stretched a long yawn and sat up from the soft bedding. Night had fallen, but he had no sleepiness at all, and his bright eyes were shining.
"What's wrong?" A gentle voice came from the quilt.
Hikari Uchiha also propped herself up. Underneath the loose pajamas were graceful curves, half-exposed fragrant shoulders, and a cascade of blue silk, exuding a faint fragrance.
Her skin was as white as snow, and her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque. Her delicate face was born with a sense of aloofness. The purple mark on her forehead was like a plum blossom on the snow, adding a bit of娇艳 to her.
She was still in her twenties, young and beautiful, and the years seemed to have left no trace on her face.
In fact, in terms of true age, even Madara Uchiha would not dare to be presumptuous in front of her, but decades of imprisonment had locked her time, and the stagnant time did not begin to flow until she broke out of her predicament.
Relying on the low output and fine-tuning of the "Yin Seal", she maintained her body in the best state for many years, so she was skilled in preserving her appearance. Until she completely integrated the yang-dun power of Hashirama cells, she had long been unable to judge her age by ordinary people's standards under the nourishment of enormous vitality.
Kamihane looked down at her, and couldn't help but stroke that pretty face blooming with Yingying brilliance in the moonlight.
"Yes, there are some questions pressing in my heart. If I don't figure them out, I can't sleep peacefully."
Hikari took the initiative to meet him, her head rubbing upwards, and her smooth and soft face gently bumped into the palm of his hand.
"Tell me, what is it?"
She knew that Kamihane had taken Orochimaru to Ryūchi Cave for cultivation two years ago, and it was not until today that he completed his practice. After he came back, he had been frowning slightly.
Her eyes turned slightly, and she had a few guesses in her heart.
"Is it about Sage Art?" She asked proactively.
Kamihane smiled lightly, "Yes, as expected, you can't hide anything from you."
"What's there to be distracted about this?" Hikari tilted her head, "Could it be that you are also interested in the Sage Art of Ryūchi Cave, but you can't master it?"
"How is that possible?" Kamihane was a little stunned, and it was not until a moment later that he noticed the slyness in her eyes, and then he knew that she was completely teasing him.
"Hikari, how did you learn to be bad?"
"Where did I become bad?"
"Tsk tsk, you wouldn't have joked with me like this before."
"This is called being close to vermilion makes one red, and being close to ink makes one black. Staying with you for a long time, it is inevitable that I will become like you." Hikari puffed up her small mouth, "This is all your fault."
Kamihane grinned, "Hey, then I didn't see your Susanoo turn black?"
"What a cold joke." Hikari shivered symbolically.
Kamihane said sternly: "Okay, no jokes, I am interested in Sage Mode, but it's not that I can't learn it. It's just that after seeing the power displayed by Orochimaru, I suddenly don't want to learn it."
"Why don't you learn it?" Hikari asked doubtfully: "Doesn't Sage Mode instantly increase a person's strength a lot?"
"Do you think I need it?" Kamihane asked blankly.
"Oh oh, that's right, such power is a bit tasteless to you." She seemed to have thought of something, "But after mastering Sage Art and natural energy, you can get a long life, why not learn it?"
Kamihane spread his hands, and a touch of scarlet suddenly bloomed in his dark eyes, and the gorgeous patterns flowed gently, "Do you think I need it?"
"Oh oh, that's right."
Kamihane sighed, "I just feel that the real Sage Mode, or the Sage Art that is really suitable for humans to practice, shouldn't be like that, but no matter how much I searched the ancient classics, I couldn't find any information."
Hikari thought seriously for a while, and said softly: "I remember Madara-sama once said that Hashirama Senju's Sage Art can make him stronger dozens of times in an instant. The series of Sage Arts derived from Wood Release are also extremely powerful. That kind of sense of oppression is simply not comparable to the Sage Arts of the Three Great Sage Lands. Could it be that he cultivated the Sage Art that is really suitable for humans?"
Kamihane touched his chin, his eyes showing thought.
Of course he knew Hashirama's Sage Art, not only knew it, but also personally experienced its power. That overwhelming power had forcefully broken through his "Poseidon Body".
It goes without saying how high the gold content of the "Poseidon Body" is.
As a powerful physique that has adapted to the 10,000-meter deep sea and evolved, the most proud of it is its defense ability, but despite this, it was injured when facing this ninja god who was about to run out of oil.
Could it be that Hashirama really cultivated an unknown human Sage Art?
Kamihane's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
No, that's not right.
He still remembers that battle to this day. After all, that was the most thrilling battle he had ever fought.
At the beginning, when facing the blazing Sage Art Chakra on Hashirama Senju, he could certainly feel the vast and majestic natural energy, but the aura was a bit wrong.
Compared with today's battle with Orochimaru, Orochimaru, who had "Perfect Sage Transformation", had a strange, cold aura, as if he was facing a venomous snake spitting out letters.
But when facing Hashirama Senju, what Kamihane felt was not the aura of a maxed-out human being released by a ninja god. The subtle aura of continuous life and freedom was more like facing a huge towering tree.
He vaguely had a hunch that Hashirama's Sage Art came from Asura's Chakra, and Asura's power was more directly linked to the inheritance of the God Tree.
The God Tree took root on the earth and absorbed a considerable amount of natural energy, and it has undergone earth-shaking changes. This change is deeply implanted in the DNA sequence of the God Tree. Therefore, it can give birth to that all-important Chakra fruit, and Asura's Wood Release and Sage Art naturally also come from the God Tree.
All in all, Hashirama's Sage Art is definitely not a Sage Art that is truly suitable for human cultivation in the ninja world, but a Sage Art that comes with the God Tree.
Thinking of this, Kamihane looked at Hikari's bright eyes, "I have an idea, since I can't find a Sage Art suitable for humans in the ninja world, then I will develop one myself!"
"What are you going to do?" Hikari asked softly.
"Standing on the shoulders of giants, you can see farther." Kamihane pondered, "After observing the complete cultivation process of the Ryūchi Cave Sage Art, I do have some gains, but if I want to go further, relying on this little bit is not enough."
He took a deep breath, his eyes firm, "I'm going to draw on the strengths of all Sage Arts."
Saying that, Kamihane took out a scroll and handed it to Hikari.
"This is Boki's Sage Art, you can try to cultivate it first."
Hikari said in surprise: "Boki of Neko House? How did you get it?"
A hint of hidden heartache flashed across Kamihane's face, but he didn't say much, pretending to be calm and nodded, "You know, we have a good relationship."
Hikari took the scroll, squinted her eyes and smiled, "Why give it to me? Wouldn't it be more rewarding for you to experience it yourself?"
"Those who are in the game are confused, and when they cultivate deeply, it's like being trapped in a quagmire, and it's hard to pull out." Kamihane shook his head, "After I develop the Sage Art that is really suitable for ninjas, I will guide you to come out."
"I agree." Hikari nodded, and then put away the scroll and yawned lazily.
After all, in her heart, there was nothing Kamihane couldn't do.
Subduing Kurama, cooperating with Madara to raid Konoha, attacking the Five Kage Summit, killing the First Hokage, killing the Second Hokage, secretly manipulating the Cloud Village, planning the Ninja World War, plotting the Eternal Mangekyō, cultivating a foundation, killing Momoshiki Ōtsutsuki, resolving the "Karma" Seal threat, perfectly extracting Hashirama cells, subduing the Uzumaki clan, deterring the Five Great Ninja Villages...
She had long been accustomed to all of this.
For her, there was nothing more comfortable than getting a good night's sleep now.
Of course, with Kamihane.
She opened the quilt slightly and raised her eyebrows at Kamihane. With the help of the faint moonlight, her jade body was looming under the outline of the silk pajamas, as if bathing in a hazy white mist, full of temptation.
"Are you still going to sleep?"
