Chapter 274 - Chapter 274: Consciousness

At first glance, this Chakra Seed seemed like a simple energy crystal—but in reality, it was more akin to the innate sixth sense present in every living being. This subtle perceptual ability transcended and towered over the conventional five senses.

Thinking of this, Shiyu Uchiha couldn't help but feel a degree of reverence toward the Otsutsuki Clan who had created such a terrifying entity as the God Tree. Though they fell short of the mythical gods and immortals from his past life, Shiyu knew his former self had stood at an even lower position. If he truly intended to oppose them, the road ahead would be long—and perilous.

Through observation, he understood that once the God Tree took root and began growing, it would resemble a ravenous beast opening its bloodied maw. Given enough time, it would mercilessly drain the entire planet of life until it became completely desiccated and barren.

By then, not only would tangible resources and countless lives vanish, but even the intangible consciousness permeating the space around the planet might be entirely devoured by the God Tree—leaving behind not even a drop.

Moreover, at that very moment, inspiration struck Shiyu. Drawing upon detailed records regarding Buddhist teachings on the five senses and sixth consciousness from memories of his past life, he eventually figured out a method capable of fully awakening this potential.

Under normal circumstances, achieving this goal required first gaining full control over one's five senses, each trained to his utmost limit. Once these senses were refined to sufficient depth, they would undergo a qualitative transformation, evolving into the advanced *Five Recognitions*.

Yet this alone was far from sufficient. To fuse the Five Recognitions together and elevate them further, one needed to maintain a transcendental mindset, completely undisturbed by external distractions.

Only under such conditions could one discern the fundamental source of the Five Recognitions, allowing them to ascend and give birth to that mysterious and mighty sixth sense—the *Consciousness*.

In terms of the Ninja World, it was just like hidden Chakra Seeds inside the body awakening on their own—a similarly miraculous occurrence. However, reaching such an unfathomable state was no easy feat. The difficulty of reaching such a state was on par with becoming someone as powerful as Hashirama Senju. Thus, even someone as gifted as Shiyu Uchiha still remained considerably distant from reaching this standard.

In Shiyu Uchiha's understanding, the power boost brought about by the transformation of any single one among the five ordinary senses alone could rival the enhancement granted by possessing the triple-comma Sharingan. Moreover, in his opinion, the Sharingan itself represented a special kind of visual recognition—an Eye Recognition.

Of course, should he ever truly awaken Consciousness someday, the power he displayed would surpass even the average Mangekyo Sharingan. It might even rival that legendary Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, making direct comparison possible—or even surpassing it altogether!

Undoubtedly, beneath the immense and enigmatic influence of the God Tree, the consciousness of people across the Ninja World had already experienced tremendous change—from infinite potential like blank pages gradually transforming into fixed Chakra Seeds limited to singular development paths.

Of course, blessings and misfortunes always walk hand in hand—where there's a drawback, there's also a benefit. So it doesn't mean awakening these dormant forces is limited to conventional methods. In fact, for the current state of the Ninja World, there exists a unique path more suited to present circumstances.

Take Shiyu Uchiha as an example. Relying on the immense power granted by his clan's inherited bloodline limit, he has already awakened and mastered the Sharingan's power.

Moreover, since his own bloodline originates from the God Tree's direct bloodline, the Sharingan within the Uchiha clan not only effectively enhances the dormant Chakra Seeds hidden inside the body, making them easier to detect and control—greatly reducing the difficulty for ninja attempting to uncover their latent Chakra Seeds,

but it also significantly strengthens Shiyu Uchiha's fundamental physical constitution, thereby increasing the likelihood of successfully unlocking his Chakra Seed.

To put it simply, if his bloodline evolves further—into the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, or attains the state of a Perfect Sage Form—then as time quietly passes, unlocking his Chakra Seed might become as natural as breathing, as innate as instinct.

This clearly highlights how differences between individuals in the Ninja World will become increasingly evident and vast—to such an extent that the difference would surpass even the natural order—like comparing humans to beasts.

Supported by multiple transformations and enhanced abilities, Shiyu Uchiha can now vaguely sense the existence of the Chakra Seed. Precisely because of this, his sixth sense is currently in a half-awakened, extraordinary state.

With this partially awakened sixth sense, Shiyu Uchiha seems to have opened a door leading into unknown territories. He can swiftly and precisely command his remaining four senses, confident they'll undergo astonishing evolution in no time. This transformation isn't just a mere enhancement—it's a qualitative leap.

In this process, Shiyu Uchiha gradually discovered a key point: because he has taken a special path, fully awakening his sixth sense must center around eye consciousness while being strongly supported by bodily awareness.

When these two perfectly merge, and then integrate with the remaining three senses, his sixth sense will be like sunlight breaking at dawn—breaking through darkness and illuminating his path forward.

Once fully activated, Shiyu Uchiha feels confident that his Sharingan will reach an astonishing stage rivaling even the Eternal Mangekyo in power.

Furthermore, because all the strength he has gained comes entirely from relentless cultivation, his mastery and application of these powers will surpass those who rely solely on inherited bloodlines.

Especially when commanding Susanoo, his skills will surely reach the pinnacle, far exceeding those powerful figures described in the original lore.

Yet, despite his unparalleled advantages in power control, the size of Susanoo might still be subject to certain limitations.

After all, the size of Susanoo usually depends on the amount of chakra stored within the user's body.

Still, Shiyu Uchiha's power could not be underestimated. His rise was bound to shake up the entire ninja world.

At that very moment, a sudden spark from the Chakra Seed inspired Shiyu to instinctively activate the powerful Yin Release energy hidden deep inside him. Focusing hard, he began performing a Secret Jutsu. After an intense struggle, he finally forged a mysterious and one-of-a-kind Spiritual Space.
