After harvesting the last pile of rice, Uchiha Aozora dispelled the Shadow Clones.
Double the fatigue instantly hit his body, and he couldn’t help but collapse onto the rice paddy.
Aya’s pet dog Shiro had long returned to its puppy form, all four legs pointing to the sky, constantly sticking out its tongue and panting.
Inuzuka Aya also didn’t look like her usual energetic self; while wiping her sweat, her feelings were complicated.
After a while, she walked over with a cold face and said: “I admit defeat.
What kind of ninjutsu scroll do you want?” Inuzuka Aya had already prepared herself to face Uchiha Aozora’s unreasonable demands.
To her surprise, Uchiha Aozora laughed: “Whatever, I’m not picky.” After saying that, he added: “No Fire Style ninjutsu, and just don’t give me mass-produced goods.” Hearing this, Inuzuka Aya looked at him in a new light.
C-rank ninjutsu and C-rank ninjutsu are not the same.
Some C-rank ninjutsu involve secret techniques, while others can be bought as long as you have money.
Uchiha Aozora’s request was not hard to fulfill.
“I’ll give it to you as soon as possible,” she promised.
After speaking, she paused and then said: “You won again, but I will definitely win against you next time, you just wait.” “Sure, looking forward to our next showdown.” Seeing the atmosphere between the two was good, Gekko Hayate walked over and said: “Aozora, Aya, thanks to you both for this mission.” Inuzuka Aya hurriedly waved her hands and said: “It’s nothing, it’s just harvesting a bit more rice.” Uchiha Aozora also agreed: “Yeah, we are a team, we should help each other.
Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, and everyone plays a different role in the team.
If you’re not good at manual labor, we’ll just help out more.” “Well said.
Everyone in the team has things they are good at and their own flaws, teammates should help each other.” Without them knowing when, Aburame Shibi and the old man had already appeared at the edge of the ridge.
Looking at the neatly tied bundles of rice, the old man looked moved and said: “Thank you so much, I hope you come help me harvest rice again next year.” Hearing this, the smile on Inuzuka Aya’s face vanished, and Gekko Hayate also fell speechless.
Uchiha Aozora, however, stood frozen in place.
The normally exceedingly quiet heavenly book suddenly moved a bit, and a drop of pale golden water appeared on the page.
Bidding farewell to the lonely old man, Aozora and the other two followed Aburame Shibi away.
On the way, seeing Uchiha Aozora looking distracted, Inuzuka Aya actually started to comfort him.
“Aozora, relax, sensei said we won’t take this mission again in the future.” “And next year we might all be Chunin, then we definitely won’t take D-rank missions.” Uchiha Aozora snapped back to his senses, saw Inuzuka Aya’s concerned gaze, and felt a bit comforted in his heart.
This single-celled organism accepts her “enemy” so quickly; in the future, if she’s sold off, she’ll probably help the buyer count the money.
No, with her IQ, she probably wouldn’t even count the money right.
Complaining internally, Uchiha Aozora forced a smile on his face and mumbled “mm” a couple of times.
Seeing this, Inuzuka Aya thought her words of comfort had an effect and happily played around with her little white dog.
After walking back, seeing that the sky had completely darkened, Aburame Shibi said: “We’ll hand in the mission tomorrow.
Dismissed for today, everyone go home and get a good rest.” “Okay!” “Thank you, sensei!” After harvesting rice for three consecutive days, all three were a bit exhausted.
“Then let’s meet at eight o’clock in the mission hall.” After saying that, Aburame Shibi parted ways with the three.
The Uchiha clan compound was not in the same direction as his two teammates’ homes, so Uchiha Aozora also said his goodbyes to them.
After leaving their sight, Uchiha Aozora quickly leaped onto the rooftops and soon rushed back home.
Sitting on his own bed, Uchiha Aozora didn’t even bother to adjust his breathing; he directly focused his mind and entered his sea of consciousness.
Without contemplating, no text appeared on the archaic page, but there was a drop of pale golden water swimming on the page like a tadpole.
Uchiha Aozora was both worried and excited.
He was worried that this water drop would destroy the functions of the heavenly book, or even ruin the heavenly book entirely.
The heavenly book was his guarantee for rapidly improving his strength and reaching Kage level.
If he lost the heavenly book, he would be further away from changing his brother’s fate.
Moreover, the heavenly book was located inside his sea of consciousness.
If the heavenly book collapsed, he couldn’t guarantee that his soul and spirit wouldn’t be severely injured.
As for his excitement, it was also very understandable.
Since discovering the heavenly book at the age of five, this was the first time Uchiha Aozora saw something other than text appear on the heavenly book.
This meant the heavenly book had undergone a new change, and perhaps had new functions.
The pale golden water drop flowed freely on the page.
Uchiha Aozora felt that the water drop wasn’t flowing on the page, but running back and forth within his own heart.
Ultimately, curiosity overcame the fear of the unknown, and he decided to study it.
He first tried to sense that drop of pale golden water.
As his spirit sensed the water drop, he felt as if he was enveloped in warm water; it was as if his soul was taking a hot bath.
After a brief attempt, Uchiha Aozora withdrew his spirit.
Looking at the heavenly book again, he saw that the pale golden water drop on the page had become increasingly transparent, and its luster had mostly faded.
“It seems this water drop is beneficial and harmless, and it seems to have certain benefits for the spirit.” Looking at the water drop that was about to disappear, Uchiha Aozora decided not to “bathe his soul” anymore, but to test if it had any other effects.
Acting on his thoughts, he immediately contemplated “False Form”.
He wanted to test what effect the water drop had on magical spells and divine abilities.
Afraid of producing adverse effects, Uchiha Aozora chose “False Form”, the spell that was currently the least important to him.
Among the divine abilities and spells currently shown on the heavenly book, “Guided Qi Cultivation” was the foundation for training his body and refining chakra, “Weapon Mastery” was his powerful offensive method, and “Samadhi True Fire” had immense potential.
Comparatively, “False Form” was less important.
Following his contemplation, the two gray ancient characters for “False Form” quickly surfaced on the heavenly book.
And after the two ancient characters appeared, that transparent water drop no longer flowed randomly, but quickly flowed toward the ancient characters, and then merged into them.
In a short while, the water drop completely disappeared, and Uchiha Aozora saw that the two characters “False Form” seemed a bit brighter.
He touched “False Form” with his soul, and the feeling of sudden enlightenment appeared once again.
After a while, Uchiha Aozora opened his eyes and couldn’t help but laugh heartily.
The water drop did not destroy the magical spells and divine abilities on the heavenly book; on the contrary, it could perfect them.
During this inheritance, he found that besides the previous knowledge, “False Form” now included knowledge on using chakra to alter meridians and bones.
This knowledge was absolutely not included in the “Transformation Jutsu” or “Substitution Jutsu”, and he hadn’t learned any related knowledge himself; it was entirely divinely bestowed knowledge.
This meant that in the future, as long as he found enough water drops, he could constantly perfect the magical spells and divine abilities on the heavenly book, and could learn the complete “Guided Qi Cultivation”, “Samadhi True Fire”, etc.
