6 Chapter 6: The Revival of the Nine-Tails
"Spiritual Perception State!"
Ino utters a low shout, running her chakra along the route she had sensed earlier. The blue chakra flows along her meridians towards her head, breaking the shackles that limit her energy.
The principle of the Spiritual Awareness State is somewhat similar to The Eight Inner Gates. However, the latter opens the dangerous gates of human potential. Once opened, the body will be subjected to a great shock, and if practiced to the extreme, it could even endanger one's life.
But the Spiritual Perception State is different. It's merely a state of extreme sensory enhancement. Although it consumes a lot of energy, it doesn't put much strain on the body. From the beginning, the Spiritual Perception State was not a forbidden technique or an enhancement technique, but a state that can be used passively.
"Ugh, not good, I feel a bit uncomfortable."
Ino enters the Spiritual Perception State again. The process is very smooth, completely devoid of the difficult process she had imagined when practicing ninjutsu or shurikenjutsu.
However, although she successfully enters it, her energy consumption rate is very fast. In the Spiritual Awareness State, she can easily feel her energy rapidly depleting, dozens of times more than when Naruto had activated the state for her earlier.
Just as Naruto said, this state can only be maintained for at most half a minute. Any longer and she would fall into a coma due to mental exhaustion.
After experiencing it for another ten or so seconds, Ino voluntarily exits the Spiritual Perception State. She pants heavily and says with one hand on her head: "What's going on? When I use it myself, why is the consumption... so much more than before? And also, the chakra consumption in the Spiritual Perception State is also very high. Just in ten or so seconds, I've already used up a third of my chakra."
'Does activating this state also consume energy?'
Naruto is somewhat puzzled. He remembers that when he first practiced the Spiritual Perception State, he didn't feel any chakra consumption at all.
He observes Ino again and finally finds that her chakra is very small compared to his own. He had previously assumed that all ninja in the ninja world would have concealed their chakra signatures, so he hadn't paid it much attention.
So it turns out that their chakra is really low!
In Teyvat, the chakra consumption of the Spiritual Perception State was less than his automatic recovery for Naruto. So naturally, he didn't feel any chakra consumption. But for Ino...the consumption is indeed quite large.
"Succeeding once is already good enough, what else do you want? Practice more by yourself in the future. This is a problem with your chakra operation ability. You don't have enough control over the details of your chakra, naturally your consumption will be high, it's not my problem." Naruto thinks for a moment and explains.
He's not lying Ino's excessive consumption indeed has something to do with her chakra consumption. She consumed a lot of unnecessary chakra once she gets better at using it in the future, reducing her chakra consumption by two or three times should be no problem.
But that's about it, after all chakra and elemental power are two different types of energy. Even if she controls her chakra better, it won't be as effective as using elemental power.
Activating the Spiritual Perception State with chakra doesn't directly harm brain nerves but also doesn't have the nourishing effect of elemental power. The duration of the Spiritual Perception State will be about ten times shorter.
"Ah, I see."
Ino nods slightly, looking at her hand and feeling the aftertaste of activating the Spiritual Perception State in her mind. A sense of satisfaction that she has never felt before suddenly bursts forth in her heart.
The Spiritual Perception State...it's simply amazing!
If she activates it during the shuriken exam, wouldn't getting full marks be easy? If she activates it during the ninjutsu exam and her chakra control ability increases rapidly, wouldn't passing be easy?
(When Ino uses the Spiritual Perception State, most of her consumption comes from not having state enhancement when activating it and not being proficient in controlling chakra, therefore, her consumption is quite large, after activating Spiritual Perception State, her chakra consumption greatly decreases.)
"Thank you, I'm going home now. But I'll come back to train in the afternoon. I'll treat you to ramen tonight! Bye~" Ino turns around with a smile and waves as she speaks.
"Goodbye."
Naruto also waves his hand and watches Ino's figure disappear from the training ground.
She's gone...
Home? He thinks back to his own home where there's no one waiting for him to come back and no money or food—just a place to live—that's all there is to it.
It feels a bit lonely and a bit sad.
Forget it, let's continue cultivating elemental power. Elemental power can nourish the body, it's not a big deal if he doesn't eat lunch. Anyway, he doesn't want to go back to the village and look at those people's faces.
...
Inside Naruto, a sealed space.
"The seal has appeared again? What's going on?"
The fox in the darkness slowly opens its eyes, looking at the familiar seal in front of it, feeling a bit sad and also a bit surprised. It quietly looks at the outside world through Naruto's eyes. This is his familiar world, the ninja world, not the Teyvat world where monsters roam everywhere.
"Have we...left that world? Although there are wars and horrors everywhere...being able to witness miracles and faith in tragedies and having something you want to protect is also a good experience."
"Woo...Fox Shrine...my Fox Shrine..."
The Nine-Tails speaks while wiping away tears.
When Naruto crossed over to the Teyvat continent during the time of the Demon God War, the Nine-Tails in the seal also crossed over with him. The existence of the Nine-Tails greatly interfered with his progress in absorbing elemental power in the early stage.
After all, Kurama has always been used to doing things his own way.
Fortunately, the person who adopted Naruto was Morax, the God of Contracts. He could tell at a glance that there was an elemental spirit sealed inside Naruto's body and could easily enter Naruto's sealing space to directly face the Nine-Tails.
The God Of Contracts and the Nine-Tailed Fox face each other.
What surprised the Nine-Tails was that when Morax saw him, he wasn't surprised or afraid. He just said indifferently: "There are such elemental spirits in this world? Hmm, it looks like a remnant of a demon god, it's kind of interesting."
The Nine-Tails was very dissatisfied and very angry. He roared and howled, boasting about his strength with all his might. Unfortunately, all he got in return was Morax's casual 'oh'.
That indifference could drive the Nine-Tails crazy!
However, not long after, the Nine-Tails understood just how terrifying the gap between him and a God.
Morax just casually raised his hand, four pillars instantly appeared inside the seal. The power of the Nine-Tails was completely suppressed without any leakage. The strength of this seal far surpassed that of the Eight Trigrams Seal, and its formation speed was also very fast. There were no signs of needing preparation, it could even directly ignore releasing the Eight Trigrams Seal.
Nine-Tails: Damn! Damn! Damn! This thing is even more fierce than Hashirama and Madara! This guy's strength is definitely on par with Rikudou Sennin!!
In Teyvat's world, strength can roughly be divided into three levels: Demon God level, Immortal level, Mortal level. Morax's strength is very strong, he is also a leader among those at Demon God level.
How strong is his specific strength?
He can use Heavenfall as a normal attack!
Although the Nine-Tails' strength is not weak, it is only at an ordinary Immortal level. Morax's eight pillars can seal even those at Demon God level, how could he possibly have the ability to resist being sealed? As soon as four pillars were erected, the Nine-Tails instantly turned into a pet figurine and couldn't move at all.
And then, the problem was solved.
