Hovering over the island for a few moments, Qingming eventually found a reasonably flat spot and descended. However, he didn't immediately begin his training. Instead, he retrieved the sealing scroll from his pouch once again.
With a few swift hand seals, he undid the seal on the scroll.
Instantly, an array of books and scrolls appeared in front of him, occupying a significant amount of space.
Looking at the sheer volume of materials, Qingming muttered to himself, "This is going to be a massive project."
As he spoke, he picked up one of the scrolls and started skimming through it.
The first scroll documented a relatively ordinary jutsu, nothing particularly remarkable. After a quick glance, Qingming set it aside.
He moved on to the second scroll. This one caught his attention; it contained research notes on the shadow techniques of the Nara clan. Unfortunately, the information was incomplete and not enough for him to master these techniques.
Besides, even if he could learn them, he had no intention of doing so. The shadow techniques were essentially an application of Yin Release. But when it came to utilizing Yin Release, what could possibly rival "Susano'o"? Qingming would never trade the superior for the inferior.
Continuing his review, Qingming alternated between quickly skimming and carefully reading. It took him nearly three hours to go through the entire collection, but finally, he selected four scrolls and a single book to focus on.
The four chosen scrolls contained two genjutsu techniques and two ninjutsu techniques:
Genjutsu - A-rank: Darkness Illusion TechniqueGenjutsu - A-rank: Temple of Nirvana TechniqueNinjutsu - B-rank: Earth Release: Earth Flow RiverNinjutsu - C-rank: Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique
He had already experienced the power of the Darkness Illusion Technique firsthand. It was highly effective against the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan. Considering that his methods might not align with the ideals of both the fully matured Shisui Uchiha and the younger Itachi Uchiha, it seemed prudent to prepare ahead of time.
As for the Temple of Nirvana Technique, it was selected to address his shortcomings. The technique itself was rather ordinary—easily countered with some basic genjutsu knowledge and vigilance. However, its strength lay in its vast area of effect, filling a gap in Qingming's arsenal.
Given the enhancement of his Mangekyo Sharingan, coupled with his extraordinary mental strength and chakra reserves, Qingming estimated that once he mastered the Temple of Nirvana Technique, it would be highly effective against genin-level ninjas and challenging for chunin-level ninjas to break free from. For jonin-level opponents, however, it would likely prove ineffective.
But that was fine. Qingming never intended to rely on this technique against jonin-level adversaries—he already had far more effective Sharingan-based genjutsu for that.
Setting aside the genjutsu scrolls, Qingming turned to the other two scrolls.
The first one, Earth Release: Earth Flow River, was an advanced B-rank technique. When sufficient chakra was infused into it, the jutsu had the potential to alter the battlefield's terrain drastically. This provided Qingming with an alternative to his water-based techniques, "Water Release: Exploding Water Shockwave" and "Water Release: Great Exploding Water Shockwave."
In places like the Wind Country's desert regions, where water release techniques were less effective, Earth Flow River would be invaluable. Moreover, this jutsu had a more advanced variant, Earth Release: Swamp of the Underworld, an A-rank technique capable of trapping even a giant summon like Manda in its mire. Unfortunately, Qingming hadn't obtained this advanced version, so he would focus on mastering the precursor for now.
The second scroll, Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique, was chosen purely as an additional means of evading damage or escaping peril. While his ocular technique "Amaterasu Domain" provided a near-perfect defense, it wasn't practical to rely on it for every encounter. Even after evolving his Mangekyo Sharingan into the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan and eliminating the risk of blindness, his ocular energy would remain a finite resource.
Thus, having an array of defensive and evasive jutsu was essential for his survival. If the opportunity arose, Qingming would continue expanding his repertoire of such techniques.
Lastly, he picked up the lone book. It wasn't a manual for jutsu or combat techniques but rather a research document on the Akimichi clan's Multi-Size Technique.
As was well known, the Akimichi clan's technique relied on utilizing Yang Release chakra to achieve its effects. Coincidentally, Qingming's method of physical enhancement through the Palm Sage Technique also leveraged Yang Release. He had selected this book to see if he could draw parallels and insights from it. Even if he couldn't develop a new physical enhancement technique outright, any improvement to the efficiency of the Palm Sage Technique would be more than satisfactory.
Having made his selections, Qingming resealed the remaining materials back into the storage scroll. He then turned his attention to the allocation of chakra for training.
Just that morning, before his confrontation with Danzo, his mastery over the Chakra Cloak technique had reached perfection, saving him 182,000 chakra points daily. This freed-up chakra would serve as his initial "investment capital" for his new studies.
After some consideration, he decided to divide the chakra reserves into five portions:
50,000 points for the Darkness Illusion Technique.50,000 points for the Temple of Nirvana Technique.40,000 points for Earth Release: Earth Flow River.40,000 points for Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique.
The remaining 2,000 points would go toward researching the Akimichi clan's Multi-Size Technique. While this amount might seem insignificant, it would be supplemented by the 36,000 points he had already allocated daily for the Palm Sage Technique, ensuring no disruption to his regular regimen.
With his plan set, Qingming wasted no time. Forming the hand seals for the Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu, he summoned eight shadow clones with a resounding poof.
After assigning each clone their training task, Qingming himself entered a meditative state, fully immersing himself in his training.
While Qingming quietly focused on his cultivation on the island, unaware of external events, the entire village was thrown into chaos following Danzo's death.
The death of a village elder was no trivial matter. It created waves of political and social unrest.
Adding fuel to the fire were the actions of Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, who, despite their differences with Danzo's methods, had been long-time comrades of his. His mysterious demise prompted them to push for a full-scale investigation, placing significant pressure on Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage, to find and expose the culprit.
