"Snap!"
Lin Ke was on his way home, and couldn't help but perform a hand seal, then clap his hands together. That wonderful feeling appeared again, countless energies flowing, followed by a sound approaching from afar.
[Son, you're here again~] His old man greeted him familiarly from the other side.
He used a bit more Chakra, and the voice sounded much closer. He had a feeling that if he kept increasing the Chakra, he might actually pull his old man into the mortal realm...
Lin Ke thought, and said in his mind: [Dad, can you sense me communicating with you? What does it feel like? How is the Pure Land over there? Have you seen Mom?]
Due to the urgency, he asked a series of questions.
[I can sense you communicating with me? Aren't you the one who contacted me?] His old man replied with some surprise, [It's like you shouted into a wireless headset, and I responded because it felt familiar.]
[Pure Land, are you talking about the afterlife? Hmm, I don't know. After I died, I didn't seem to wake up until you contacted me just now. You—]
"Buzz~"
Great, the phone hung up again.
Lin Ke silently summarized the characteristics of his Summoning Jutsu and didn't try to release it again. He needed to save some Chakra to practice other ninjutsu.
Regardless of whether Summoning Jutsu was magical and useful, he would learn it first.
However, according to the pattern of his ninjutsu mutations, most of the ninjutsu he applied for probably wouldn't have much room for change.
For example, Earth Style: Subterranean Voyage Technique, Earth Style: Hiding Like a Fish in the Earth Technique, Earth Flow Severance, Earth Flow Wall, and the like.
Just looking at the names, he knew that they wouldn't mutate into anything more valuable. Any ninjutsu required Chakra, and for him, the best thing was a special mechanism, like the Three Body Technique and Shadow Clone's mechanisms, which were excellent.
If it was a special effect, it would be barely acceptable, but he was afraid that the effect wouldn't be much different from the original. With his pathetic Chakra, what he released might just be...
Lin Ke carried a bag of ninjutsu scrolls back home and laid them out on the ground, opening them one by one.
As expected, most of the ninjutsu given by the Third Hokage were Earth Release related. He guessed that it was based on the information he had gathered from his own purchase of Earth Release: Earth Dragon Hiding Technique.
Among the ninjutsu he applied for himself, there were Wind, Fire, Earth, and Lightning attributes, but only Earth Release was given to him.
He guessed that they thought it was impossible for him to complete the training of a second nature transformation at his age, and to that he could only say...
Well, they guessed right.
The training of the first nature transformation would take several years for ordinary people. Lin Ke benefited from his good Chakra control and completed it in the Ninja Academy in just over a year, which allowed his Chakra control to barely reach the level of a Jonin.
But the training of the second nature transformation required not only talent but also time, and what he lacked was time.
"Earth Release, Earth Release, Earth Release, medical ninjutsu."
Lin Ke found a medical ninjutsu scroll, opened it, and saw that it was the B-rank Mystical Palm Technique. He casually placed it aside, feeling that it had no future just from the name.
"Earth Release, Earth Release, Earth Release..."
"Summoning Jutsu: Rashomon, Genjutsu..."
"The highest are only B-rank?"
He flipped through the scrolls. There were quite a few ninjutsu, a messy pile, but there was no Mystical Palm Technique or Sealing Jutsu that he had originally applied for. As expected, A-rank ninjutsu couldn't be easily given to a Chunin.
After all, B-rank ninjutsu already corresponded to Jonin, and A-rank was already in the range of super high difficulty and Forbidden Technique. Not to mention S-rank, no matter how much they trusted him, the Third Hokage wouldn't casually give ninjutsu of that level to a nine-year-old child.
"If all these ninjutsu scrolls were sold, they should be worth several million Ryo..."
"Unfortunately, I can't sell them."
Lin Ke quickly dismissed the idea of selling the village's ninjutsu. He was joking, he wouldn't court death like that.
"Then, I'll start with Genjutsu." He was actually a little curious about whether Genjutsu would mutate.
Strictly speaking, ninjutsu and Genjutsu were completely different categories. He didn't know if they would mutate like ninjutsu. —Seventh Training Ground.
"Genjutsu can't mutate after all." Lin Ke shook his head. Genjutsu, like medical ninjutsu, required a very high degree of Chakra control.
The same was true for breaking Genjutsu. The stronger the Chakra control, the faster the release/break.
His Chakra control allowed him to learn D-rank and C-rank Genjutsu with basically no difficulty.
Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique, Demonic Illusion: False Surroundings Technique, Fox Mind Technique, and the like were not difficult to learn. The Chakra consumption was not very large, and the effect was very useful for clearing small fry.
Unfortunately, it doesn't have any mutated effects. The illusion is exactly the same as the original, and he can't make any waves with it.
Non-Dojutsu Genjutsu is too useless for the strong. If their Chakra control is good enough, it won't hinder them for even a second. After disrupting their Chakra, they can act as if nothing happened without even a brief moment of stiffness.
"Next is Earth Release..."
Refining Chakra, forming hand seals, releasing—
Earth Style: Subterranean Voyage Technique
After Lin Ke completed the hand seals, with a thought, his body quickly sank into the ground, deeper and deeper, and soon fell to a depth of more than ten meters.
"Glug glug~" Due to breathing, brownish-yellow bubbles emerged from the corners of his mouth and nostrils.
It feels similar to snorkeling, the speed of movement isn't greatly affected, I can see the surface, it doesn't consume much Chakra, and it lasts a long time...
He stayed underground for a full five minutes before being ejected back to the surface. This technique isn't much different from the original, but it's surprisingly useful.
Although he had already learned two similar Ninjutsu, this was the first time he had burrowed into the ground to experience the special mechanism of Earth Release.
In the future, I can just hide my head at the start of a battle to observe. I just have to be careful not to encounter other Earth Release ninjas, otherwise a single head won't be able to outrun them.
Lin Ke felt that he still had most of his stamina left, and recalling another Earth Release technique of the same type, he decided to practice it as well.
Earth Style: Hiding Like a Fish in the Earth Technique
He slammed his hands on the ground, and after feeling a small portion of his Chakra being consumed, the brownish-yellow earth within about five meters became transparent. A large group of bright rose-colored sea fish swam leisurely.
The fish seemed to see him too, and swam away in a panic, disappearing after leaving the five-meter range.
But soon other fish of different colors and species swam over, looking quite out of place. They were clearly fish, but they were swimming in the earth, yet they looked no different from swimming in water.
Strange Ninjutsu effect...
Lin Ke re-formed the hand seals and released Earth Style: Subterranean Voyage Technique again, drilling underground to scare away a few fish at close range. After gaining nothing, he realized that his first Ninjutsu specifically for comedic purposes had appeared.
It really is just a reflection!
