Technology Development Department.

The elder of the Kurama clan arrived with the two individuals listed in the files. He was dressed in casual clothes bearing the Kurama clan crest, and his face was deeply lined with wrinkles, making him appear even older than the third generation.

His eyes held a sense of anticipation.

Several months have passed since the Kurama clan approached Orochimaru in the Technology Development Department. During these months, in addition to the funds spent on purchasing equipment and research, Kurama also provided Orochimaru with some information about bloodline limits that did not involve clan secrets, in accordance with Orochimaru's request.

They even had Orochimaru draw blood from two clan members who had awakened their bloodline limits, and had them undergo multiple examinations. It's fair to say that the Kurama clan never refuses anyone who is willing to cooperate.

They thought it would take at least a year or two to see results, but to their surprise, Orochimaru announced that there were results in just a few months.

Of course, when Orochimaru made the announcement, he only mentioned that he had developed a drug and technique to specifically activate bloodline limits, but whether it would be successful or not depended on the experiments.

But the entire Kurama clan couldn't help but harbor a faint hope for success.

The two boys brought by the elder of the Kurama clan looked somewhat alike, and their relationship was also noted in the records as blood relatives.

Although the two boys appeared calm, their eyes and bodies still unconsciously betrayed tension and fear of the unknown.

Although experiments involving Wood Release remain top secret, ninja clans like Kurama have still managed to get glimpses of it.

After all, a large number of the remaining Senju clan members disappeared in a short period of time, and the official explanation was that they died in the line of duty. This was only enough to appease the ordinary people and ninjas in the village.

Therefore, the Kurama clan was well aware of the dangers of bloodline awakening. If the Uchiha clan hadn't succeeded, they wouldn't have wanted to participate in such an experiment at all.

I don't want to ride horses or gather clouds.

However, his father, the patriarch of the Kurama clan, and most of the clan elders were extremely eager to restore the Kurama clan to its former glory.

"Lord Orochimaru!" The member of the Kurama clan greeted Orochimaru respectfully.

"Are these the test subjects you chose?" Orochimaru's golden eyes fell on the two boys.

The Kurama brothers immediately realized that they were being stared at by some terrifying beast. Their bodies went numb, their blood froze, and they stood there, unable to move or speak.

"Yes. Congyun and Yunhai are the clan chief's children. They have a high talent for illusion magic among the younger generation and are the most likely to awaken their bloodline limit." The elder of the Kurama clan nodded slightly.

"The liability waiver has been signed, right? This is a voluntary experiment with certain dangerous consequences. In severe cases, it could even end their ninja careers or even lead to their deaths," Orochimaru reminded them.

"The Kurama clan knows very well." The Kurama clan elder looked at the Murakumo brothers, tightened his grip on their hands, raised his head to meet Orochimaru's gaze, and answered firmly.

"Then let's go." Orochimaru turned and walked ahead.

After hesitating for a moment, the elder of the Kurama clan made up his mind again, took firm steps, and followed Orochimaru with the Kurama brothers.

Because of Orochimaru's habit, the core departments of the technology development department were all located underground. The lights and passageways along the way made the Kurama and Murakumo brothers feel uneasy.

The four stopped in front of a door marked "Bloodline Laboratory." Orochimaru opened the door and led the three members of the Kurama clan inside.

The room was spacious and filled with sophisticated instruments. In the center of the room was a bed, surrounded by a dense array of incomprehensible cables and equipment, but the arrangement was not messy.

A somewhat short figure stood in front of the equipment, operating something. Beside him were two equally busy shadow clones.

"Orochimaru-sensei." Upon seeing the person who had arrived, Lu Nie put down the potion in his hand and greeted him.

"Is the experiment ready?" Orochimaru asked as he approached Shikagure.

"Everything is ready," Lu Nie nodded.

"Let's begin then." Orochimaru gestured for one of the Kurama clan members to come out and lie down on the bed in the center of the room.

While Kurama Unkai was still hesitating, Kurama Murakumo had already taken the initiative to come out, take off his shoes and sit on the bed. Under the gazes of everyone, which were calm, worried or complicated, he lay down on the bed as Orochimaru asked.

A layer of black shadow instantly bound Kurama Murakumo, who was lying down, like glue. Seal runes snaked up from all around the bed, centered on Kurama Murakumo, and disappeared into his vest.

A heavy, hemispherical iron helmet was pushed over the headboard, covering half of Kurama Murakumo's head and blocking his vision. Then, a cold potion was poured into his mouth from the corner of his lips.

Kurama Congyun felt as if his body had completely lost control, and everything in front of him was pitch black. But under these circumstances, his mind became unusually active.

This is a very peculiar state.

Kurama Murakumo felt as if he were neither fully awake nor asleep. His body felt incredibly heavy and he couldn't move, but his mind was overly active, weaving a hazy yet very important dream for him.

"This is!"

The elder of the Kurama clan felt the familiar chakra fluctuations on the bed, and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

That's the power of Yin!

Kurama Murakumo's dream, under the influence of Yin Release chakra, even slightly affected his mental will.

That's the power of illusion!

Even illusions performed unconsciously can affect his mind, which is also skilled in illusions. Even without awakening a bloodline limit, once he masters this power, he could become a powerful figure.

"It actually affected my five senses? What an interesting bloodline limit." Orochimaru licked his lips, his face radiating a strong desire to study it. He stared with great interest at Kurama Murakumo, who was constantly squeezing out his own spirit and Yin Release chakra under the influence of the drug in order to stimulate his bloodline limit from frozen dormancy to gradually becoming active.

"The experiment needs to be stopped, Orochimaru-sensei. Otherwise, his body and mind will completely collapse." Looking at the real-time data about Kurama Murakumo detected on the instrument, Shikane said.

"Did we fail?" Orochimaru asked with some regret. However, after glancing at the elder of the Kurama clan, he suppressed his rising desire for research and, together with Shikane, activated the sealing technique he had previously inscribed, cutting off Kurama Murakumo's overly active Yin Release chakra.
