Simultaneous travel: I am proving the great way in the heavens.

Chapter 278: Practicing Dual Cultivation with the World! The Great Path to Immortality! A Symbol of Divinity and Wisdom

The peculiarity of the ninja world is why the Six Paths Sage was willing to plan for a thousand years and go with the flow, using Black Zetsu's plan to resurrect Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Stimulate the world and make it produce a stress response, and then use Uzumaki Naruto to seize the origin of the world step by step in a roundabout way.

In fact, with the strength of the Six Paths Sage, it may not be impossible for him to forcibly target the ninja world.

But if you want to maximize the interests of the ninja world, then there is no doubt that this roundabout method is the best choice.

At this moment, Luofu, who was unaware of this, had somehow managed to seize Uzumaki Naruto's position as the destined protagonist.

Uzumaki Naruto is indeed worthy of being the reincarnation of Ashura. After losing the identity of the destined protagonist, he was only slightly disappointed for a moment, but he quickly put this feeling behind him and began to practice again with great enthusiasm.

In Konoha Village, when Luofu returned.

Only less than three minutes had passed since he went to the Limited Tsukuyomi.

During this process, Luofu, who was in the limited Tsukuyomi, had no idea how many reincarnations he had gone through.

Experiencing the Third Ninja World War again and again.

These countless reincarnations, adding up to a total of time, have lasted at least thousands of years.

Even the Tsukuyomi of the simple Mangekyō Sharingan can turn a moment into three full days and three nights. Even when not attacking, the Tsukuyomi can allow people to spend their lives happily and peacefully in the illusion space.

Not to mention the limited Tsukuyomi formed by the mirror image of the world.

As soon as he returned to the real world, Luo Fu couldn't wait to begin studying inner alchemy.

With the innate Qi of dual cultivation of sex and life as the core, unlike the world of aliens, where one can only use one's own innate Qi, in the ninja world, there is natural energy, a special energy that is equivalent to the innate Qi of the world itself, which fills the space between heaven and earth.

For chakra practitioners, unless they understand the Sage Mode, natural energy is more terrifying than poison.

Even Chougo, who passively absorbs natural energy, can theoretically be considered to have the ability to become a sage by nature. However, due to the conflict between natural energy and chakra, once he absorbs natural energy, he will fall into a frenzy due to the conflict between the two.

But for Luofu, there is no such concern.

As Luofu combined the original incomplete system of the world, with the innate Qi as the core, combined with chakra and many shared abilities, soon, a system with an upper limit that was much more terrifying than the real Otsutsuki clan was gradually born in Luofu's hands.

This is a method that is like dual cultivation.

Of course, it’s not the dual cultivation between men and women, but the dual cultivation with the world.

The process of absorbing natural energy and transforming it into one's own innate qi is also a slow compensation for the world itself.

If more and more people practice Luofu's inner alchemy method in the future, and even if there are ninjas who surpass the chakra system, then the origin of the world that was plundered by the Chakra Divine Tree may be restored bit by bit over a long period of time.

Don’t think this is impossible. The vitality of a planet is not fixed.

Just like ordinary plants, they carry out photosynthesis and respiration at the same time.

The inner alchemy method created by Luofu also has a practice process that clearly distinguishes between the day and the moon.

While absorbing natural energy and transforming it into one's own innate qi, this system can also help the world by absorbing cosmic energy.

To some extent, it is not an exaggeration to say that the inner alchemy method created by Luofu is a dual cultivation with the world.

Different from the strange man Luofu, who created the three realms and nine levels system.

Uchiha Luofu's inner alchemy method seems much more orthodox and even retro.

There are only four realms in inner alchemy.

Refining essence into Qi, refining Qi into spirit, refining spirit into emptiness, refining emptiness into Tao.

It seems that there are only four realms, and the upper limit seems not high, but in fact, the fourth level of Lianxu Hedao has no upper limit. How much strength can be exerted depends entirely on the wisdom and development of the cultivator who practices the inner alchemy method.

It's like, the strong ones above Kage level, Super Kage level, Six Paths, etc. It seems that they are all Super Kage level, but in fact, they are just strong ones who cannot be summarized by ninjas.

As long as they reach the realm of refining Qi into spirit, the practitioners of inner alchemy are no less capable than the jonin. This is just at the level of pure combat. If it comes to health preservation and life protection, the inner alchemy method simply crushes the ninja of the chakra system.

More importantly, Neidan is a true path to achieve individual evolution step by step from the bottom up. Unlike the Chakra system, no matter how you practice, blood is a shackle that tightly restrains the ninja.

Without the bloodline directly inherited from Kaguya Otsutsuki, the level of Kage is the upper limit of a ninja, and it is an upper limit that cannot be broken.

However, the inner alchemy method is, in the true sense, the way to heaven that can enable people to elevate themselves from being a human to being an immortal, step by step.

As Luofu finally completed the creation of the inner alchemy method, he felt that the whole world seemed to be cheering.

The natural energy between heaven and earth, which was originally violent and full of danger, quickly gathered towards Luofu like a young swallow returning to the forest. At this time, the heaven and earth all worked together to assist Luofu in practicing inner alchemy.

Such a big commotion alarmed the entire Konoha.

Especially Jiraiya, Tsunade and others who could clearly feel the natural energy, rushed to Luofu's location impatiently.

When he saw the violent and dangerous natural energy between heaven and earth, it actually flowed into Luofu's body as gently as water.

Jiraiya was completely dumbfounded.

Although he calls himself the Toad Sage, Jiraiya's Sage Mode is not only extremely difficult to enter, but it is also impossible to achieve alone. He needs the assistance of two Toads, Shima and Fukasaku.

But what about now? What did he see? The natural energy between heaven and earth actually gathered towards Luofu, even forming a huge funnel-like scene.

Rubbing his eyes vigorously, Jiraiya subconsciously looked at Tsunade beside him and said, "Tsunade, tell me, am I dreaming now?"

Although Tsunade does not know the Sage Mode, the Slug Sage of the Wet Bone Forest once taught her. Not to mention, Hashirama Senju is almost the only ninja who has cultivated the Sage Mode in hundreds of years and can enter the Sage Mode instantly.

Tsunade is at most unable to cultivate into Sage Mode on her own, but that doesn't mean she doesn't know what natural energy is.

At this time, Tsunade had no time to care about Jiraiya.

Glancing at Jiraiya unhappily, Tsunade said, "Jiraiya, don't you call yourself some Toad Sage? Tell me, is Luofu's current situation normal?"

"You ask me if this situation is normal?" Jiraiya said with eyes wide open: "You also know how dangerous natural energy is. This guy is still sitting here alive. I find it incredible!"

In Jiraiya's heart, he actually felt very unhappy with Luofu.

The reason is simple, it's Tsunade.

From childhood to adulthood, Jiraiya has always been Tsunade's steadfast pursuer.

Unfortunately, decades have passed and Jiraiya has not been able to win Tsunade's heart.

Even before that, Kato Dan had stolen his home base.

After Kato Dan died, Jiraiya thought his chance had come. But who could have thought that in the blink of an eye, Tsunade and Luo Fu would be together.

Especially after knowing Luofu's strength, Jiraiya had completely given up.

Now I see Luofu absorbing natural energy so unscrupulously.

Jiraiya, however, did not feel much smugness.

The truth is, Luofu is now considered the strongest in the entire village. At this time when the Ninja World War is about to break out, if something unexpected happens to Luofu.

So considering it from the perspective of the village, the impact on Konoha would be incomparably serious.

Even for the sake of the village, Jiraiya hoped that Luofu would be safe.

"Aren't you a Toad Sage? Can't you think of a solution?" Tsunade asked desperately.

In fact, Luofu was already able to utilize natural energy before. Tsunade not only knew this, but had also seen it more than once.

But what can be done? Luofu's body is now madly absorbing the natural energy from the entire world. The violent natural energy has formed a funnel-shaped energy vortex visible to the naked eye, which is madly infused into Luofu's body.

It's no wonder that Tsunade would be confused because of her concern.

Tsunade does not know the Sage Mode, but her understanding of the Sage Mode is no less than that of Orochimaru.

Because Orochimaru himself could not learn the Sage Mode, he simply created a curse seal to achieve the effect of the Sage Mode in a tricky way. This shows that Orochimaru understands the Sage Mode very well.

Tsunade also knew the consequences of absorbing natural energy so crazily.

If the Sage Mode of Myoboku Mountain cannot achieve the right balance of natural energy, chakra and spiritual energy, then the Sage Mode will turn into a stone. If the Sage Mode of the Wet Bone Forest and Ryuchi Cave gets out of control, the result will not be good either.

Facing Tsunade's concerned and confused questioning, Jiraiya pondered for a moment, frowned and said: "If Myoboku Mountain was still there, I might be able to summon a few immortals to help Luofu share the natural energy in him, but now..."

At this time when Mount Myoboku is about to be destroyed, the only thing Jiraiya can think of is to sacrifice himself.

After struggling for a moment, Jiraiya took a deep breath and said, "Now maybe I am the only one who can do it myself. My Sage Mode has a big flaw and may not be able to really help Luofu. If... I mean if I fail, then I will turn into a stone statue, and Luofu... can only rely on himself to find a solution."

"Wait...wait!" Tsunade looked towards Luofu in shock as if she hadn't heard Jiraiya's words, and said, "What...what is that?"

Following the sound, I saw that halos appeared one after another on Luofu's body without knowing when.

The halos of different colors lit up one after another from bottom to top.

The bottom one is the red color, which symbolizes the root chakra. Above it are the orange color of the sacral chakra, the yellow color of the navel chakra, the green color of the heart chakra, the blue color of the throat chakra, the indigo color of the brow chakra, and the purple color of the crown chakra.

Seven halos, from bottom to top, are arranged on Luofu's body.

In this trance, whether it was Tsunade or Jiraiya, the moment they saw Luofu, it was as if they saw a pure universe that was constantly evolving and contained infinite mysteries.

Jiraiya had never seen such an incredible sight.

Although chakra also has colors in the ninja world, the colors are so obvious, the seven-color light wheel of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and purple, as if all the emotional and rational spiritual meanings are transformed into a light wheel visible to the naked eye. Clearly divided, yet harmonious and unified.

"Jiraiya, will this happen in Sage Mode?" After coming back to her senses from the dazzling colorful halo, Tsunade couldn't wait to ask Jiraiya at an extremely fast pace.

Shaking his head, Jiraiya said, "I've never seen one before."

Not to mention Tsunade and Jiraiya, even Luofu, the instigator, was in the midst of a wave of ups and downs and found it difficult to understand his current situation.

You know, Luofu's inner alchemy method is the product of combining his abilities from the alien world, the ninja world and many shared worlds.

In essence, Luofu's inner alchemy method is still based on Taoism as its core purpose.

However, when he successfully embarked on the practice of the inner alchemy method, he did not follow the method of the eight extraordinary meridians, nor did he follow the Taoist concept. In fact, the whole process seemed to jump out of the framework of refining essence into qi, refining qi into spirit, and refining spirit into emptiness. He plunged headfirst into the three meridians and seven chakras.

Even the seven chakras were manifested as Luofu continued to absorb natural energy.

Such an incredible scene, even Luofu himself was confused, let alone Tsunade and Jiraiya, the two bystanders.

Among the many wisdom and knowledge shared, Luo Fu was not unclear about what the system of three meridians and seven chakras was all about.

In addition to the seven chakras that are inexplicably lighting up one by one on the body, among the three channels, the left channel is the Yin channel, the right channel is the Yang channel. The central channel is the channel for humans to merge with the universe, and it is the only channel and the source of joy.

But knowing is one thing. The inner alchemy method developed by Luofu has nothing to do with the three channels and seven chakras system in theory.

Now, inexplicably, not only did the seven wheels appear one by one, but even the three meridians began to appear. How could this be the inner alchemy method that Luofu had developed before?

Just when Luo Fu was a little stunned, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

Chakra.

In fact, the name Chakra can only be regarded as a borrowing or adaptation, which can be traced back to the time of the Otsutsuki clan. It was the Otsutsuki clan who named the energy extracted from the fruit of the sacred tree that was extracted from the life planet as Chakra.

But this kind of sacred tree energy is completely different from the chakra that Luofu knows.

The former is just a name for the energy of the sacred tree, while the latter is a product that is almost like a philosophical concept.

If it is changed to a name that Luofu can understand, Chakra is closer to the concepts of reincarnation, perfection, and even yin and yang.

However, there is always smoke without fire. When the energy of the sacred tree was called chakra, it would inevitably overlap with Luofu's concepts of perfection, reincarnation, and yin and yang.

This overlap has resulted in the situation at this moment where Luofu has clearly developed the inner alchemy method, but has instead cultivated a system of three meridians and seven chakras.

Unconsciously, he practiced the inner alchemy method and developed the three channels and seven chakras.

Luofu simply gave up the control of the acquired consciousness and completely handed over the process of cultivation to the innate spirit.

The innate spirit is more like an instinct of life evolution.

At the beginning of a person's birth, the primordial spirit, which is the innate nature, dominates everything. The primordial spirit is the original nature and the true self. However, as life grows, the concepts, cognitions, thoughts, etc. formed by acquired learning begin to dominate everything. The primordial spirit abdicates.

But the evolution of life itself is dominated by the innate spirit.

The subjective practice of inner alchemy is more like using the acquired consciousness to usurp the authority of the innate spirit.

When the innate primordial spirit spontaneously showed results that even Luofu's true self could not predict, Luofu seemed to have received some kind of hint.

He now uses the inner alchemy method to develop a system of three meridians and seven chakras, which is the system that truly suits this world.

Facts also proved this point when Luofu chose to abdicate and leave everything to the innate spirit.

The seven wheels on Luofu's body, shining with colorful halos, suddenly burst out with more and more dazzling and eye-catching brilliance.

In the eyes of Tsunade and Jiraiya, as the seven halos of light grew stronger and were about to cover up Luofu's body, they suddenly had a sense of enlightenment.

At this moment, Luofu has become a symbol of holiness and wisdom in the true sense.

A sudden inspiration came to Tsunade, who could not wait to close her eyes. The great joy and silence that suddenly surged in her heart made her body begin to absorb the natural energy between heaven and earth uncontrollably, just like Luofu.

When these powerful and abundant natural energies were infused into Tsunade's body, they caused a visible transformation in her, the Fifth Hokage.

Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and purple, the seven colors of chakra, continuously lit up on Tsunade's body from bottom to top.

Jiraiya, who was standing aside, suddenly widened his eyes, his gaze filled with fear and helplessness.

Luofu's situation has not been resolved yet. In the blink of an eye, even Tsunade fell into the same situation.

The terrifying natural energy, like a backflow, rushed madly into Luofu and Tsunade's bodies.

At this moment, Jiraiya was completely desperate.

Jiraiya believed that Luofu and Tsunade were destined to not survive the crazy infusion of natural energy.

Let’s not mention Luofu, the initiator who took the initiative to create the inner alchemy method and put it into practice.

Influenced by Luofu, Tsunade entered a state of quiet joy. Her unconscious consciousness abdicated and her spirit began to lead her own evolution.

Just like the vegetation in the forest, the places that are most exposed to sunlight will grow more luxuriantly. Tsunade is like a plant that receives sunlight at this moment, and Luofu is the scorching sun that brings sunshine to all living things.

Influenced by the light of the three channels and seven chakras emanating from his body, Tsunade also began to walk into this special system that could not be understood by the inner alchemy method at all.

As the seven wheels of light lit up, Tsunade's life essence began to transform.

Tsunade herself received Rofu's chakra and jumped from the previous Otsutsuki Kaguya system to Rofu's system.

At this moment, influenced by Luofu's evolution, Tsunade's transformation process is simply a poor imitation of Luofu.

Soon, Jiraiya was surprised to find that his previous judgment seemed to be wrong.

Such a huge natural energy was something he had never felt even from the giant toad sage in Myoboku Mountain.

However, now even Tsunade has absorbed more natural energy than the Great Toad Sage.

In the normal Sage Mode, the fused Sage Chakra theoretically cannot involve the energy of the Divine Tree Chakra.

Even the ratio is that natural energy, body energy and spiritual energy are integrated in a one-to-one ratio.

If the fusion is successful, a familiar chakra that surpasses the ordinary chakra of the sacred tree will be born. If the fusion fails, it will be eroded by natural energy and turned into a stone statue in a very short time.

Don't forget that in the ninja world, chakra is the fusion of spiritual energy and physical energy in a one-to-one ratio.

The more powerful the ninja, the more difficult it is to enter the Sage Mode state. The reason is that the ninja has become accustomed to fusing his own mental energy and physical energy into the Chakra of the Divine Tree.

However, fairy chakra requires the forcible addition of a one-to-one ratio of natural energy.

Path dependence can be triggered passively. The slightest mistake will cause the physical energy and mental energy to merge without the participation of natural energy, giving birth to divine chakra.

Once the divine chakra appears, the natural energy will instantly become full of aggressiveness, turning the practitioner into a stone statue.

This is also why the Sage Mode’s requirements for the state of mind are so strong beyond imagination.

Whether it was the former Six Paths Sage or the later Uzumaki Naruto, when practicing the Sage Mode, they needed to empty their minds like meditating and forget their past practice of chakra. Only in this way could they achieve the Sage Mode.

To a certain extent, the more complicated and intelligent a person is, the more difficult it is for him to practice the Sage Mode, because the requirements of the Sage Mode are too high for a ninja.

No matter whether it was Indra or Orochimaru, they were too thoughtful and were destined to have no chance of achieving Sage Mode.

At this moment, Luofu and Tsunade were frantically absorbing natural energy. As long as the spiritual energy and physical energy in their bodies were slightly integrated and divine chakra was born, the result would be extremely tragic.

No wonder Jiraiya now showed such a desperate look.

As time passed, when the light of the three meridians and seven chakras on Luofu's body shone to its utmost, the light of the three meridians and seven chakras suddenly gathered together on Luofu's head, forming an interlocking halo that looked like the Buddha's light.

As soon as this halo appears, people feel a great joy and bliss.

Jiraiya was like a blessing from heaven and earth, uncontrollably absorbing the natural energy that had gathered between heaven and earth because of Luofu and Tsunade.

However, these natural energies did not turn Jiraiya into a stone statue. Instead, they made him enter the Sage Mode in an instant.

You know, although Jiraiya's trump card is the Sage Mode, with the destruction of Myoboku Mountain and the deaths of the two toads, Fukasaku and Shima, Jiraiya has almost lost the opportunity to enter the Sage Mode.

It was because Jiraiya’s previous process of entering Sage Mode was so clumsy.

He couldn't accomplish it alone, so he had to have Fukasaku and Shima stand on his shoulders, one on the left and one on the right, to absorb natural energy while controlling the output of natural energy to help Jiraiya enter the Sage Mode.

But now, Jiraiya actually entered the Sage Mode in one step without any help from anyone.

Especially when Jiraiya enters the Sage Mode in the way of Myoboku Mountain, his entire image will uncontrollably transform into the appearance of a toad.

Anyone with normal aesthetic sense will not think that Jiraiya's Sage Mode is good-looking. Even saying that his Sage Mode state is ugly can be considered an understatement.

But now, Jiraiya, who entered the Sage Mode on his own for the first time, not only did not mutate into a toad or a frog, but his whole body seemed to be beautified.

If we say that Jiraiya's previous appearance could only be described as not ugly, then now that he has inexplicably entered the Sage Mode, it is as if he has added filters, beauty effects and other special effects.

No matter who it is, it would be difficult to connect Jiraiya, who has entered the Sage Mode, with himself at this moment.

Apart from the sage mask on his face that increasingly revealed a different kind of evil charm, Jiraiya's current Sage Mode, just in terms of handsomeness, was enough to surpass the countless people who had cultivated into Sage Mode throughout history and were too ashamed to show their faces.

Just when Jiraiya was excited that he could enter the Sage Mode on his own without relying on the two Sages Shima and Fukasaku.

Jiraiya suddenly felt that his fairy chakra seemed to be undergoing some mysterious changes.

You know, Jiraiya has entered the Sage Mode.

Jiraiya was naturally very familiar with Senjutsu Chakra.

Precisely because of his familiarity, he could increasingly feel the changes in his Sage Chakra after he inexplicably entered the Sage Mode.

Under normal circumstances, the so-called Senjutsu Chakra is the product of the fusion of three equal parts: natural energy, physical energy and spiritual energy, in a one-to-one ratio.

But now Jiraiya clearly felt that the proportion of natural energy in his own fairy chakra was increasing at an astonishing speed.

In a very short period of time, the natural energy soared from the state of being divided into three equal parts to occupy half of the total fairy chakra.

In other words, the ratio changed from one to one to one to two to one to one.

Mental energy and physical energy were reduced by half.

Only natural energy has more than doubled.

Jiraiya suddenly went from being surprised that he had voluntarily entered Sage Mode to being frightened.

When Jiraiya was at Myoboku Mountain, he first came into contact with natural energy. The toads at the Myoboku Mountain holy land reminded him of this and even let him see those ninjas who were eroded by natural energy and turned into stone statues because they were unable to reconcile natural energy with their physical and spiritual energy.

Once the ratio of Senjutsu Chakra loses balance, the first to suffer will be the ninja himself.

Frightened, Jiraiya tried desperately to increase the proportion of physical energy and spiritual energy in his fairy chakra.

But what made Jiraiya despair was that even if he continued to increase the proportion of spiritual energy and physical energy in the senjutsu chakra, how could an individual compare to the natural energy of the vast universe?
Even if he squeezed his own physical and mental energy at all costs, Jiraiya could not see the possibility of restoring his Senjutsu Chakra to its equal level.

In desperation, Jiraiya simply gave up completely.

Finally, he looked reluctantly in the direction of Tsunade and Luofu.

Just as Jiraiya closed his eyes, waiting for himself to be completely turned into a stone statue under the erosion of natural energy.

After a while, Jiraiya was surprised to find that he was not corroded into a stone statue by natural energy as the immortals of Myoboku Mountain said. Instead, when the proportion of natural energy immortal chakra broke through 8:1:1, a special chakra was born that Jiraiya had never seen or even heard of.

This is even a kind of magical energy that cannot be described by chakra at all.

At the moment this energy was born, Jiraiya actually felt that this newly born energy was like pure vitality, constantly replenishing his body.

You know, chakra itself is a mixture of physical ability and spiritual energy, and it can also make up for physical damage. But there is a premise, that is, chakra's compensation for the body is itself a kind of pressure on the body.

Rather than saying that chakra replenishes the body, it is more accurate to say that it recovers from injuries.

The recovery of injuries is itself the result of cell division, but the number of times a cell can divide has a limit.

Although using chakra to recover from injuries did restore the body to its original state in a short period of time, in reality, it cost one's lifespan.

When Jiraiya was studying under the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, he might have been a loser, but that was just because his mind was not on ninjutsu.

In fact, Jiraiya's talent is definitely one of the best among ninjas, as he was favored by Sarutobi Hiruzen and accepted as his disciple.

Not to mention that Jiraiya participated in several Ninja World Wars in succession. In actual combat, he understood very well the use of chakra to heal injuries.

Don't forget that Jiraiya and Tsunade are both among the Three Ninjas, and Tsunade is the one who truly organized and promoted medical ninjutsu.

To some extent, it is not an exaggeration to say that Tsunade is the one who laid the foundation of medical ninjutsu.

But now, Jiraiya could clearly feel that this special fairy chakra, which consisted of natural energy, physical energy and spiritual energy in a ratio of eight to one to one, was truly making up for his own foundation.

Jiraiya even felt as if all the damage caused by the torrent of time had been wiped out from his body, whether it was past injuries that caused excessive cell division, or other reasons.

At this moment, on Jiraiya's body, the influence of all this, along with the special fairy chakra flowing in his body, he actually felt as if he had regained his youth.

The strength of a ninja will not continue to increase with the passage of time, but will reach peaks one after another.

When the body matures and the actual combat experience reaches a certain level, then they will reach the peak of the ninja world, which will last for more than ten years at most. Ninjas will suffer from various kinds of injuries.

No matter how powerful they are when they are young, once they are old and weak, the fate of a ninja will be worse than that of an ordinary person who is good at taking care of himself.

But now, Jiraiya clearly felt that everything about himself seemed to have truly returned to youth.

Physical energy and mental energy can be quickly returned to their peak state after disaster relief.
