The world begins with refining skills

Chapter 403 Blitzkrieg! (Seeking monthly votes)

"Eight years have passed. Do you know how I've spent these eight years?"

Looking at his body, now free of mortal flesh, Mu Sheng recalled the bitter and desolate days of the past eight years and couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

To get to where he is today, he has devoted countless hours of effort every day, and he has become extremely thin!

But it was all worth it!

Thousands of meters above the sky, the sun's rays shone even brighter.

The blazing sunlight beat down on Musheng's skin, making it shimmer with a jade-like luster.

Beneath that fair, jade-like skin lie muscles resembling volcanic lava, containing a terrifying power capable of destroying mountains and incinerating seas.

Beneath the fiery red muscles were massive tendons, like iron veins and copper chains, which twisted all of Mu Sheng's strength into one.

It transformed into an even more terrifying and destructive force!
Mu Sheng had a feeling that even a casual strike from him could cause destructive power comparable to Might Guy opening the Seven Gates.

If he were to mobilize the power of his muscles, bones, and internal organs, he could absolutely unleash the terrifying power of Might Guy kicking half of Madara's body with a single kick.

Looking at Mu Sheng's entire skeleton, its silvery-white metallic luster made it seem as if it were made of platinum, exuding an indestructible divine aura.

The platinum skeleton not only supports Mu Sheng's flesh and blood, but also perfectly protects his most vulnerable internal organs.

However, with the completion of "Chakra True Form: Internal Organs Chapter", these fragile internal organs are no longer weaknesses.

After consuming a massive amount of natural energy, Mu Sheng's various internal organs have transformed into energy cores that are as dazzling as gemstones.

A heart formed from fire-attribute chakra throbbed continuously within Mu Sheng's chest cavity, transmitting energy to every corner of his body.

The spleen and stomach, formed from earth-attribute chakra, can crush and digest substances such as metal, iron, earth, and stone, and extract energy from them.

The kidney system is formed by the convergence of water-attribute chakra, as well as other body organs formed by the condensation of wind-attribute chakra, lightning-attribute chakra, and yin-yang-attribute chakra.

In terms of physical strength alone, this body has surpassed the Boundless Dharma Body of the Heavens that Mu Sheng previously fused into the [Refining Panel].

"Skin made of white jade, flesh forged from flint. Muscles sculpted from copper and iron, bones forged from platinum. Gathering the primordial energy of heaven and earth, condensing the divine treasures of the Five Elements!"

"My divine skill has been perfected!"

Mu Sheng stood proudly in the sky, looking down at the Land of Fire below.

Six years have passed, and Konoha Village's military strength has recovered, even surpassing its peak.

Besides serving the function of numerous virtual spaces similar to 'Ninja City', the main credit goes to the Tailed Beast Tree.

Back then, Mu Sheng buried the chakra of the Nine-Tails and Eight-Tails under the Tailed Beast Tree, which has now transformed into abundant fruit.

By projecting a wisp of his consciousness into the Netherworld Pure Land, Mu Sheng arrived at the peak at the center of Soul Island.

At the summit, two towering trees, each a hundred meters tall, stand atop the peak. These are the Death Tree and the Tailed Beast Tree, planted by Mu Sheng many years ago.

During these six years, although no large-scale war broke out in the five great ninja villages, the fighting in the ninja world never stopped.

Furthermore, in the process of gradually annexing the Land of Fire, they harvested the souls of a large number of remnants of the old era.

The remnants of these souls, after being refined and extracted by the eighteen levels of hell, were decomposed and absorbed by the Tree of Death.

Thanks to ample nutrition, the Death Tree has completely changed.

The tree trunk turned into a pale white, segmented shape, like the spine of some kind of undead creature.

The tree crown is shaped like split ribs, with countless chain-like branches hanging from the ribs, and at the end of the chains is a dark purple membrane that looks like a body bag.

The entire Tree of Death exudes a sinister and terrifying atmosphere.

Mu Sheng's consciousness lightly touched the trunk of the Death Tree and instantly sensed a ravenous desire, yearning for more and stronger souls.

"Don't worry! It'll be quick, you'll have a big meal soon!"

Mu Sheng gently comforted her, then walked towards the Tailed Beast Tree on the right.

After absorbing the chakra of the Nine-Tails and Eight-Tails, the bark of the Tailed Beast Tree has become somewhat similar to the Gedo Mazo.

The strong, gnarled tree trunk resembled the body of an ancient giant, with branches that looked like arms, each clutching a Tailed Beast Fruit radiating chakra.
At first glance, the canopy of the tree, which seemed to stretch to the sky, was densely covered with more than three thousand tailed beast fruits.

This doesn't even include the Tailed Beast Fruits that have already been given away as rewards.

"Sweeping across the entire ninja world might be a bit too much, but sweeping across a country is a piece of cake."

Mu Sheng nodded in satisfaction: "Konoha has enjoyed divine favor for too long. It's time to let the light of peace shine on lands beyond the Land of Fire!"

Thinking of this, Mu Sheng had a thought, and a familiar figure appeared in front of him.

With his sinister eyes, aged body, and the iconic round fan emblem, the newcomer was none other than the old man, Setsuna.

Uchiha Setsuna was just at the Mental Health Research Center, discussing with a group of Uchiha high-ranking members about creating simulated awakening scenarios for a new batch of Uchiha members who were of the right age.

Suddenly the scene before my eyes changed, and I found myself under the Tailed Beast Tree.

The old man showed no panic whatsoever in this instant; in the entire Pure Land space, there was only one person with this authority.

But the moment he saw Mu Sheng's smiling face, the old man felt a headache coming on.

"Kamihara-kun, please let me go. This old man has already died of old age, can't you let me live a peaceful life?"

Two years ago, Uchiha Setsuna died at his post due to excessive exhaustion.

However, for Setsuna, who was determined to restore the glory of the Uchiha clan, it can be considered that he got what he wanted.

What he didn't expect was that after his soul ascended to the [Yellow Springs Pure Land], Mu Sheng assigned him even more work.

They even went so far as to say that without the burden of his health, he could devote more energy to handling government affairs.

This is outrageous! They treat people like dirt!
"Hey, you old man, you really don't know what's good for you! It was your own unwillingness to delegate authority that led to your sudden death!"

Mu Shengyi retorted righteously, "Why are you blaming me now?"

"That was before. I no longer crave power; I just want to enjoy a few days of peace and quiet," the old man said, his neck stiff.

Power is indeed the best cosmetic procedure for men, but they can't just lie on the operating table and never get off!
That's not cosmetic surgery; it's using someone as a guinea pig for the surgeon to practice on.

"Elder Shana, how could you have such thoughts?" Mu Sheng said with exasperation, "How could you have such a lazy and pleasure-seeking mentality?"

"At your age, this is the time to strive and work hard!"

Old Man in a Moment: (；一_一)！

The old man was stunned. At his age, striving and struggling? His body was already buried, only his soul remained.

"Alright, let's put this matter aside for now. The organization has a task for you."

Before the old man could speak, Mu Sheng began to explain the task.

The old man, who had initially shown resistance, suddenly brightened up in his eyes after hearing what Mu Sheng was going to do next.

"That's the entire Blitzkrieg plan. What do you think?"

After Mu Sheng finished explaining his thoughts, he asked the old man Shana.

The latter was no longer dejected; he was flushed red, as if he had eaten a large pigeon.

"Excellent, excellent! Absolutely excellent! This is a raid that will go down in history!"

"Blitzkrieg! Blitzkrieg!"

The old man gestured wildly and muttered, "With Konoha's current strength, defeat is impossible. The question is how to win spectacularly!"

The old man could already foresee that after this blitzkrieg, the entire ninja world would be shrouded in fear of Konoha and the Uchiha!

"But Konoha doesn't have enough Tailed Beast ninjas right now. Should we lower the merit requirement for granting Tailed Beast Fruits?" After pondering for a moment, the old man Setsuna raised his question.

"No!" Mu Sheng shook his head and said, "The requirements for merit are already very low now, and the Tailed Beast Fruits aren't that cheap!"

"Then what do you mean?"

“Select a group of people whose merit points are closest and temporarily grant them Tailed Beast Fruits. The merit points will be tallied after the battle ends.”

Those who don't have enough points will have them taken back directly; those who have enough points can choose for themselves.

That being said, Maki would probably choose the Tailed Beast Fruit.

This is not just the chakra of a Jonin; the chakra of the Tailed Beast also possesses powerful healing abilities.

Having a Tailed Beast's chakra is like having a healing ninja by your side; it's hard to imagine any ninja resisting such a temptation.

"I understand!"

"Setsuna replied, while already calculating in his mind that the Uchiha clan would have many more tailed beast ninjas after this battle."

As Mu Sheng's personal servant, given the same amount of merit points, the old man Setsuna would definitely prioritize choosing a member of the Uchiha clan.

Mu Sheng saw through the old man's little scheme at a glance, but he didn't say anything.

"Then I'll leave this to you. Produce me a detailed battle plan as soon as possible!"

As he spoke, Mu Sheng raised his hand, intending to send the old man back.

"Okay, wait a minute, I have something else to say!" The old man was about to nod when he suddenly remembered something and quickly said.

"Is there anything else?" Mu Sheng stopped what he was doing and looked at the old man Shana strangely.

"Rin is 18 years old this year, when are you two going to give me a grandson?"

Mu Sheng was speechless; he had thought it was something important.

"It'll be soon, it'll be time to give birth."

Mu Sheng waved his hand and sent the old man back, not giving him any chance to nag.

The people of the ninja world are still suffering from the hardships of war; he has no time to deal with such trivial matters of personal feelings.

What, you mean Shinbara Shinku?

That was just an accident!

With his consciousness leaving the Pure Land space, Mu Sheng used Flying Thunder God Technique to appear in the courtyard of his own residence.

"Victory!"

Upon seeing Mu Sheng appear, Yuhi Kurenai immediately dropped her son and went to greet him with sparkling eyes.

"Ouch~"

Shinbara Maku, who had been slamming her head on the ground, got up with a resentful expression.

"Seriously, she's forgotten about her children now that she has a husband!"

Shinbara Maku glanced sideways at her saccharine parents beside her, making a face of utter disgust that was hard to look at.

Seeing that his parents were about to kiss in front of him, Shinbara Maku quickly shouted to stop them, "Stop! No, shut up! Don't do this in front of a child!"

"Please consider my feelings, okay? You guys are giving me nightmares tonight!"

"Huh? Zhen Hong? When did you get here?" Mu Sheng's face was full of surprise, as if he had only just noticed his son's presence.

"Hong, did you see him just now?"

"No!" Kurenai covered her mouth and chuckled, shaking her head.

"Damn it, he's using that trick to ignore me again! He truly lives up to his reputation as the ultimate, ultimate, ultimate demon king!"

Shinbara Shinku instantly lost her spirit, her shoulders slumped and her arms hung limply, looking utterly devastated.

Then he slowly raised his hands, stared at the lines on his palms, and chuckled softly, "You think you can defeat me, the Crimson Demon King, with this level of humiliation?"

"Impossible! That would only make me stronger!"

Shinbara Shinku suddenly raised her head, her muscles tensing, and shouted:

"Explode, reality! Shatter, spirit! Banish the enemy before you! Mystic Eyes of Death Perception!"

He then rammed his head into Mu Sheng, who easily subdued him with one hand.

Looking at his son struggling and crying in his arms, Mu Sheng couldn't help but complain to Yuhi Hong, "Where did this kid learn all these chuunibyou lines? They're giving me goosebumps."

Yuhi Kurenai held onto Musheng's other arm, chuckling softly without saying a word, looking at the father and son with doting eyes.

"Damn it! The Crimson Demon King will not yield!"

Shinbara Shinku struggled and screamed, and Maki Katsu realized that he still couldn't fully control the power that had surged after his attack.

"So you're the Crimson Demon King, right? Your power is too great; you need to be sealed away!"

With a snap of his fingers, complex sealing runes spread from Shinbara Shinku's head to her entire body.

The sudden disappearance of her power caused Shinbara Maku to cry out in alarm, "Oh no! My power has been stolen! What an evil master!"

Before he could finish his lines, Mu Sheng grabbed Shinbara Makoto's head and threw it aside, then kicked him away.

The latter's body flew out of the courtyard in an instant, crashed into a hole in a space tree, and then disappeared.

"Phew~ It's finally quiet!"

Mu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, scooped up Xi Ri Hong's knees, and carried her into the room.

Hey! Sheng, what are you doing?!

"Damn! Our main account is ruined, let's start a new account and practice!"

Meanwhile, after falling out of the tree hole, Shinbara Shinku finds herself in the capital of the Land of Fire.

"That's too much! I'm still a child!"

Shinbara Shinku was furious. What kind of parents would do such a thing? Sometimes he really wondered if he was even their biological child!
After angrily condemning it for a long time, Shinbara Shinku decided not to go home for now; he wanted to have some fun outside for a few days.

After wandering aimlessly through the streets of the capital for a while, Shinbara Maku suddenly spotted a suspicious figure.

An old man with white hair was peering lewdly through the window of the hot spring bathhouse roof.

"Well, well! How dare they do such an immoral thing right under the nose of the Crimson Grand Judge!"

"Absolutely lawless!"

Shinbara Shinku appeared behind the voyeur in a flash and swept a whip kick towards the man's groin.

"Accept your punishment, you sinner!"

"True Crimson Severing Kick!"

This kick struck Jiraiya squarely in his weak spot.

boom! ! !
Click!

"Ouch~~"

Jiraiya let out a painful cry and flew away, clutching his groin.
