Red sand dust

The thirteen students of the Air Force, who had high hopes, left the village and sped towards the south as many people watched.

Many villagers did not realize that this was no ordinary training, but a big test that would determine the fate of many people.

Before these "quasi-ninjas" return from their mission, Yemu and Qian will have two or three days to rest.

Daimaru wouldn't be in a hurry to follow.

With the speed of thirteen students, it is already good to reach the south coast before the sun sets.

Such a long voyage requires at least three to four breaks to restore physical strength and chakra. There are temporary shelters arranged by Suna Ninja along the way. Even if there is a temporary problem, you can still seek help.

With Daimaru's mobility, even if he sets out half a day late, he can still catch up with them without any delay.

Daimaru and his two companions, who had been busy for several months, suddenly put down their work of coaching the air team, but felt awkward.

"What are your plans?"

Daimaru asked Yami and Chi.

"I'm going to try the Winged Armor Swift again and get proficient as soon as possible. I can't be outcompeted by my subordinates in the future..."

Nighteye answered without thinking.

After thinking for a while, Qian said:

"I'm going to the training ground to practice illusion. I've gained some experience recently..."

Not everyone has the insight into many secrets like Daimaru.

Being able to figure out a unique illusion practice method on his own without a good inheritance, Qian's talent is not bad.

"Your experience...is it the inspiration from those two sealed spiritual spaces?"

Daimaru asked with interest.

"Roughly the same!"

Qian confirmed Daimaru's guess,

"The ability to embody spiritual power and affect reality is very useful..."

Qian's answer surprised Daimaru:

"Instead of comprehending some special illusion, you went straight to the core of Yin Escape?"

Creating a form from scratch, the result of this process may not necessarily be something tangible that can be seen and touched.

The painting that Kurama Yakumo gave to Daimaru is a Yin escape, and the spiritual space sealed in it also counts.

"If Kurama Yakumo is really as powerful as you say, it would be really scary..."

Qian sighed with admiration in his heart,

"Because I am a genjutsu ninja, I can better understand the power of the blood inheritance limit. I cannot directly turn illusion into reality, but it may not be impossible to use the carrier of illusion to initially manifest spiritual power. Method……"

As he spoke, Qian stretched out his right hand, turned his palm, and the faint fragrance of illusion chakra condensed in his hand.

Immediately after forming a seal with a single palm of his left hand, he gathered the spiritual power in his body and integrated it. The illusion energy began to glow with a faint yellow light, and soon turned into a bright yellow burning flame.

"This is……"

Daimaru's eyes widened, and he stretched out his fingers in surprise, gently touching the trembling little flame.

There was no burning sensation, as if the flame was just an illusion.

"It's really interesting..."

With a flick of his palm, Daimaru cut off a few hairs from the head of Nighteye who was caught off guard, and put them into the flames. Soon, the hairs were burned to ashes.

"Daimaru, you're going too far, why don't you use your own hair?"

Yemu jumped away quickly, covering her twin ponytails, wary of Daimaru's rude behavior.

"You have long hair, so you can see it more clearly..."

As Daimaru spoke, he exhaled and blew towards the flames in Senju's heart.

The airflow carrying some wind escape chakra passed directly by and had no effect on the strange flame.

"It's really amazing..."

Daimaru praised,

"Using the invisible smell as a carrier to embody spiritual power and influence the outside world, you seem to have taken a crucial step..."

Qian smiled bitterly and shook his head:

"This is the limit of what I can do now..."

"How many talented genjutsu ninjas have been pursuing it tirelessly throughout their lives, but they still can't reach this level..."

This is somewhat similar to Daimaru using chakra threads as a carrier to transmit spiritual power and influence the minds of others, but Qian has gone a step further and can directly interfere with actual phenomena in the outside world.

The power is very weak, but the level is very high. It is probably difficult to reproduce the effect of Kurama Yakumo's genjutsu, nor can it be spiritually materialized like Susanoo of the Uchiha family.

Even so, this power is quite useful.

"With ready-made reference, I can only go so far. My limit is probably this..."

"Don't underestimate yourself, maybe it will become a powerful illusion inheritance in the future..."

Daimaru said comfortingly,

"Which direction are you going to develop?"

"As before, illusion and physical skills go hand in hand..."

"Melee genjutsu ninja..."

After hearing his companion's answer, Daimaru pondered for a moment and then said,

"It would be great if we could really find a way to become a ninja with the Phantasmal Body Technique. Let's study together when we have time. I'm quite interested in this kind of power..."

"Okay! If you want to learn from me, it's okay for me to teach you. This is the reward for lending me the painting for study!"

Qian agreed without hesitation.

"So good!"

Illusion techniques are not the direction Daimaru will work towards in the future. However, the ability to manifest mental power and affect reality is quite useful for Daimaru. Combined with some low-level illusion techniques, such as the Kasumi Servant technique, it should be very powerful. It would be even better if it could be combined with the secret technique Polarized Killing Formation.

Until now, Daimaru's huge mental power has not played much role. It is only used as a weapon to crush the enemy's mental resistance when using the secret technique Star Puppet Thread.

If you can really develop it and combine it with your original fighting style, you might be able to create miracles.

As for the imagined illusion technique, if it can really succeed, it will definitely make people's eyes shine.

…

In the evening, when the students of the Air Force arrived at a popular town on the seaside, they were too tired to continue on their way and had to stop temporarily to rest.

Daimaru, who underestimated how fast he could go with all his strength, even arrived here a little ahead. After seeing the students settling in, Daimaru continued south.

Reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun, the small islands dotted on the sea not far away are like chains, connecting the southeast corner of the Country of Wind and the southwest corner of the Country of Sichuan, and crossing the rushing ocean currents into the Fire Country. The southern waters of the country.

Reaching the easternmost end of the island chain, to the north is the Kingdom of Waves and the Kingdom of Tea, and further east is the Kingdom of the Sea, which is close to the sphere of influence of the Kingdom of Water.

The Country of Fire, the Country of Tea, the Country of Sichuan and the southern part of the Country of Wind form a huge bay, with only the southernmost end having an exit of less than 500 kilometers.
