Chapter 190 The Secret of Bloodline Elimination

night.

The meal Li Yao and his group of five ate at a villager's house wasn't really a meal, but rather a few coarse grain rolls mixed with tree roots. It tasted like... well, like tree roots wrapped in sand. Li Yao frowned as he ate it, and several times he considered using his Black Water Space to devour it.

Thankfully, I managed to hold back in the end. This will be my daily routine from now on, and I'll have to get used to it.

Given Yahiko's personality, it would be fine if he were a rich man, but since he's from a village where he doesn't have much to eat, he wouldn't ask for any mission rewards.

I feel like I'll definitely go hungry a lot in the future.

"Thank you for your hard work. We don't have much to offer you, but please have some hot tea."

An elderly villager brought over hot tea and said with a sincere expression.

In a chaotic world, it was their good fortune to meet someone like Yahiko, and all they could offer in return was this simple meal.

Yahiko quickly stood up to take the hot tea and politely said, "Thank you for the hot tea, grandpa. We can do it ourselves."

He then handed the teacup to Nagato, Li Yao, and the others.

The old man left after serving the tea.

Yahiko took a sip of tea and asked Li Yao, "Brother Li, what kind of escape technique are you good at? I'm good at water escape."

Because Li Yao looked older than them in both age and demeanor, Yahiko and the others called Li Yao "Big Brother Li".

As for Li Yao's specific name, the group didn't ask, knowing that there must be a reason why Li Yao hadn't revealed it at the beginning.

Asking Li Yao what kind of escape techniques he was good at was also because they would be carrying out missions together in the future, and it would be good to know what his partner was good at so that they could cooperate better.

"Me!"

Li Yao put down his teacup, thought for a moment, and said, "It seems like I don't have any particular strengths. I know all five chakra nature ninjutsu, I can also do genjutsu, and I'm alright with taijutsu, but it really doesn't seem like I have any special skills."

Upon hearing the first sentence, Yahiko instinctively wanted to offer some comfort, but Li Yao's subsequent words completely broke him down.

He's proficient in all five elements, and his illusion and physical skills are decent... he should be quite strong in all of them.

This talent… Yahiko subconsciously looked at Nagato.

Nagato possessed the Rinnegan, a legendary eye possessed only by the Sage of Six Paths, so it's understandable that he had the talent for ninjutsu proficient in all attributes.

"Brother Li...does he also possess some kind of extraordinary eye?"

Yahiko stared into Li Yao's eyes, a hint of curiosity flashing in them.

Even Nagato and Konan looked over curiously; Li Yao's talent had astonished them.

Only Xiao Yezi looked normal, but her proud big eyes betrayed her true thoughts.

This is nothing!

The uncle's talent is such that even the Five Kage couldn't kill him, despite being proficient in all elemental ninjutsu.

If you knew that this uncle was also proficient in various bloodline limits and powerful sealing techniques, you would be shocked to death.

Little Leaf thought to herself with pride.

Li Yao shook his head and looked at Nagato with a smile, "I don't have any special eyes, but it's a bit surprising that Nagato actually possesses the legendary Rinnegan."

"Brother Li, you know about the Rinnegan too?" Yahiko's eyes lit up. "We didn't know at first. We only found out after...our teacher told us."

When Jiraiya was mentioned, Yahiko instinctively stopped talking, not revealing the name Jiraiya.

Li Yao didn't mind and explained, "I also read a book that described what the Rinnegan looks like, so that's how I know about it."

I see!

A hint of disappointment flashed in Nagato's eyes. He really wanted to know the specific abilities of the Rinnegan and how he should control the power of these eyes.

However, Jiraiya-sensei did not know the specific abilities of the Rinnegan.

I thought Brother Li... sigh, never mind, as long as I can protect Yahiko and Konan, I'm sure I can control these eyes.

Nagato thought to himself.

The five then introduced their respective ninjutsu skills. When they heard that Little Leaf also knew Paper Release, the three little ones were shocked, followed by joy.

Xiao Nan instantly felt much closer to Xiao Yezi.

Afterwards, Xiao Yezi told Xiao Nan the principle of the paper explosive talisman, saying that she would teach her to condense the explosive talisman incantation on paper and develop the paper explosive talisman.

"Very good!"

Nagato and Yahiko were both happy for Konan, because once the Paper Explosion Talisman was developed, Konan's strength would be elevated to a new level.

This will put their minds at ease.

Konan also thought it was great; with increased strength, she could help Yahiko and Nagato.

Soon, Xiao Nan and Xiao Ye Zi's relationship quickly warmed up, and they slept together that night.

Yahiko Nagato and Li Yao naturally slept separately.

Yahiko and Nagato wanted to invite Li Yao and the other two to sleep together, but Li Yao refused. He didn't want to be held by two men in the middle of the night.

And everyone's asleep, so who's going to keep watch?

Many ninjas were killed in their sleep.

Therefore, Li Yao volunteered to keep watch.

late at night.

The three little ones and Xiao Yezi are all asleep.

Li Yao sat by the window, where a light rain was still falling, seemingly without end.

The world was quiet. Li Yao stared out the window, lost in thought, his mind immersed in the memories of the Third Mizukage.

Previously in Kirigakure, Li Yao used the method of separating the memories of the Shadow Clone to extract the chakra carrying the memories of the Third Mizukage.

In this way, he can access these memories at any time.

I haven't had time to look at it carefully before, but now I have time to look at it slowly.

The memories of the Third Mizukage will allow Li Yao to better understand this world.

Watching Li Yao recount the memories of the Third Mizukage was like watching a movie; he could fast-forward or skip to the point he wanted to see.

He quickly went through the memories of the Third Mizukage from childhood to adulthood, but there was nothing noteworthy.

It wasn't until the news of the Second Mizukage and the Second Tsuchikage dying together on the battlefield that the Third Mizukage began researching the memories of the Bloodline Limit, which caught Li Yao's attention.

In his memory, the Third Mizukage believed that even someone as powerful as the Second Mizukage could only perish together with the Second Tsuchikage, which shows how powerful Dust Release is.

The problem lies here: he was not as strong as the Second Mizukage, but when he went to Iwagakure, there was Onoki who inherited the Dust Release of the Second Tsuchikage.

This caused the Third Mizukage great anxiety, so he began to develop his own bloodline limit.

He is a natural-born ninja with chakra attributes of water, earth, and wind.

His Blood Elimination is also a fusion of the three chakra attributes: water, earth, and wind.

But no matter how hard he tried to develop and research, he could not achieve the fusion of the three chakra natures, just as the three chakra natures would affect each other, causing them to stand in a tripartite balance and unable to merge into one.

Unable to find his way, the Second Mizukage turned his attention to Onoki and his apprentice, gathering as much information as possible about them.

Then one day, the Second Mizukage got his chance. He secretly led a group to kill Onoki's apprentice who was out on a mission, and learned the secret of Dust Release from his mind.

"There's a secret behind the bloodstain elimination!"

Upon seeing this part of the memory, Li Yao was also surprised. He had thought that Dust Release was a fusion of the three chakra natures of wind, fire, and earth, and that it was based on the same principle as the fusion of fire and earth chakra natures into Lava Release chakra.

I didn't expect it to be like this.

The Third Mizukage obtained the key to mastering Dust Release from the mind of Onoki's apprentice.

"Earth Release: Super Heavy Rock Technique!"

That's right, to learn Dust Release, you must first learn Earth Release: Super Heavy Rock Technique.

However, within the entire Hidden Stone Village, only Onoki and the Second Tsuchikage can use the Super Heavy Rock Technique.

Therefore, only Onoki and the Second Tsuchikage in the entire Iwagakure region can use the Dust Release Kekkei Tota.

This shows how difficult it is to learn Earth Release: Super Heavy Rock Technique.

This is a special Earth Release ninjutsu. Like the Third Raikage's Black Lightning, it is a single-attribute chakra ninjutsu that refines the nature strength of a single chakra attribute to a level comparable to the strength of a bloodline limit chakra.

The key to the successful fusion of the three elemental chakras in the Bloodline Elimination technique lies in the fact that the chakra nature of one of the elements must be far stronger than that of the other two. Only in this way can the other two elemental chakras be fused together with the element with the strongest nature as the main component, forming a Bloodline Elimination-level esoteric chakra.

Dust Release is primarily based on Earth Release chakra, derived from the Earth Release technique of Super Heavy Rock, and incorporates both Wind and Fire chakra, ultimately reaching the level of Kekkei Tota.

After understanding this principle, the Third Mizukage was overjoyed.

He possesses Earth Release chakra, and coincidentally, he also obtained the complete hand seal sequence and related training memories of Earth Release: Super Heavy Rock Technique from the memories of Onoki's disciple.

Once he learns Earth Release: Super Heavy Rock Technique, he can use Earth Release: Super Heavy Rock Technique chakra as the main component, and fuse it with the water and wind chakra attributes to form his own unique bloodline limit.
