Chapter 302 Methods
The cold wind on the mountaintop blew relentlessly, but it did not extinguish the burning passion deep within everyone's hearts. When they learned that Hyuga Kanan had once again broken through his limits and entered a deeper realm, everyone was unable to suppress their excitement and joy.
For the Hyuga clan, this was undoubtedly exciting news. The older members, in particular, were overjoyed. Hyuga Kanan's strength meant the Hyuga clan could continue its lineage more securely and prosper even further. This would gradually reduce, or even eliminate, the threat posed by the ninja world to their clan.
For the younger generation of the clan, this news was an immense encouragement. They saw a direction for their future and found the motivation to pursue higher goals. Hyuga Kanan became their most shining role model, inspiring them to continuously strive and fight for their own glory.
Hyuga Neji's face flushed with excitement, his breathing quickened, and his body trembled slightly. His eyes widened, gleaming with excitement and anticipation. As Hyuga Kanan's last disciple, he had always received meticulous guidance and attention from his teacher. He possessed a deeper understanding and knowledge of the path of cultivation than others. Now, witnessing his teacher's breakthrough firsthand, his heart was filled with joy and pride.
"Master..." Hyuga Neji murmured to himself, his voice filled with awe. He knew all too well what this breakthrough meant—his master had transcended the boundaries of mortals, officially entering the realm of the extraordinary, and beginning his journey on the path of a sage. This was an unparalleled achievement, leaving Hyuga Neji utterly awestruck.
He recalled the days he spent cultivating alongside his teacher, the arduous training, the countless days and nights of study, and the teacher's patient guidance. Now, all the efforts had paid off; his teacher had successfully broken through the bottleneck and achieved self-transcendence.
Hyuga Neji secretly resolved to take his teacher as his role model, constantly striving in his training to pursue a higher realm. He knew that only through his own relentless struggle could he follow in his teacher's footsteps and become a truly powerful cultivator. He regarded his teacher as his role model and goal, determined to achieve greater success on the path of cultivation.
Orochimaru's subordinates wore fervent expressions, as if a flame had been ignited within them. During this time, they had embarked on the arduous path of cultivation. Though the road was rugged, they had at least taken a significant step, beginning their transformation towards the path of cultivation. Whenever they thought of potentially reaching the same level as Orochimaru, an irrepressible excitement and anticipation welled up within them. This yearning filled them with passion and determination for cultivation, making them willing to dedicate even more effort and sweat to it.
The reassured crowd slowly dispersed, leaving only Hyuga Neji and Orochimaru, who were led into the secluded training chamber by Hyuga Kanan. This was the first time Orochimaru and the others had entered Hyuga Kanan's secluded training place. They looked around curiously, their hearts filled with anticipation. Upon entering, they immediately sensed the difference between the interior and the outside world. Countless mysterious runes were inscribed on the walls and floor, subtly forming a barrier they had never seen before, completely isolating the training chamber from the outside world. This barrier seemed capable of shielding them from external interference, allowing them to focus solely on their cultivation. Moreover, the natural energy within was incredibly rich and gentle, making those of them who had not yet embarked on the path of cultivation feel incredibly comfortable. They took a deep breath, feeling the fresh and pure air, as if every pore on their bodies had opened, every cell rejoicing. This feeling was unprecedented for them, making them yearn even more for the world of cultivation.
The group followed Hyuga Kanan deeper into the interior, eventually arriving at a spacious indoor area. Hyuga Kanan then gestured for them to stop.
Upon entering this spacious room, the only thing that catches the eye is a solitary futon standing in the center; there are no other decorations, making the entire room appear exceptionally empty. This extremely simple arrangement evokes a sense of solemnity and reverence.
Hyuga Kanan flicked his sleeve, and with his movement, tables and chairs made of stone began to slowly rise from the ground. These tables and chairs gradually took shape in an open space in the room, as if they had grown naturally and mysteriously from the ground.
As everyone took their seats, Hyuga Kanan smiled at Orochimaru and nodded slightly, indicating that he could begin asking questions. From their first meeting, Hyuga Kanan had sensed that Orochimaru harbored many questions and was eager to find answers, but with so many people present, it wasn't convenient to delve into the subject. Now, in this private space, he was convinced that Orochimaru must have many important matters to discuss and was eager to gain his insights and guidance.
Orochimaru wasted no time and pointed directly at Kimimaro, asking Hyuga Kanan, "This subordinate of mine was originally a ninja of the Kaguya clan from Kirigakure in the Land of Water. He was born with the Kaguya clan's bloodline limit, Shikotsumyaku. However, he suffers from a severe blood disease, which has now reached a life-threatening level. I have tried many methods but have been unable to cure him. I want to know if you have any way to help him."
Hearing Orochimaru's words, Hyuga Kanan frowned slightly. He had never heard of or encountered Bloodstained Disease. So he activated his Byakugan and carefully observed Kimimaro's physical condition. Through the Byakugan, he discovered that there seemed to be a special substance in Kimimaro's chakra, causing his cells to constantly die and regenerate, resulting in a very unstable structure and thus triggering a serious disease.
After some thought, Hyuga Kanan said, "I'm not sure if I can cure him, but I have some ideas that we might try. First, we need to understand the root cause of this bloodstain disease, and then find a way to stop its development. This bloodstain disease is very likely a type of chakra inherited from one's bloodline. Completely eliminating the chakra should stop the bloodstain disease from continuing to harm one's health, but this is just a preliminary idea. I need to conduct further research on specific treatment plans."
Orochimaru nodded slightly, a hint of agreement flashing in his eyes. After all, he himself had spent a great deal of time and energy researching this problem, but had never been able to find an effective solution. Therefore, placing his hopes on Hyuga Kanan was a reluctant move. And since the other party had promised to help, he probably wouldn't try anything blindly without preparation. So, now he could only wait for Hyuga Kanan to conduct a more in-depth study before asking for details.
Orochimaru gazed intently at Hyuga Kanan before him and spoke again, “Regarding the path of cultivation, Hyuga Neji has already explained the most basic knowledge to us in detail. However, for this long and arduous process, I still hope to find a faster and more effective method to achieve it. After all, time is a precious resource for us, and we cannot rely solely on traditional methods of cultivation. Therefore, I would like to ask Kanan-kun if there are any special techniques or shortcuts that can allow us to complete this process more quickly? In this way, we can embark on the path of cultivation better and faster. I think this is also what you are looking forward to!” His tone was firm and full of expectation, seemingly placing great importance on the answer to this question.
Hyuga Kanan was well aware of Orochimaru's request for guidance. For a ninja of Orochimaru's caliber, completely changing his decades-old training habits and methods was no easy task. Chakra was deeply ingrained within him, and completely expelling and refining it would require a tremendous amount of time and effort. However, Orochimaru seemed unwilling to invest too much time in the initial stages, understanding that the path of cultivation ahead would likely be even longer and more arduous. No one could know for sure how much effort and time would be needed to advance. Therefore, Orochimaru hoped to master the basic techniques as quickly as possible to better prepare for his future growth.
Furthermore, the World Will's recent frequent granting of training conveniences to Hyuga Kanan indicates that his time for peaceful growth is running out, and he may soon face the threat of the mastermind behind the ninja world. However, Hyuga Kanan currently lacks the strength to confront this future enemy, thus he urgently needs a powerful ally. To achieve this goal, Orochimaru must complete his transformation as soon as possible to better support Hyuga Kanan. Therefore, Hyuga Kanan decides to fully push forward Orochimaru's transformation process, making him a powerful ally as quickly as possible. Only in this way can they face the impending challenges together and ensure their continued, safe training.
The person behind this possesses the combined might of nearly a thousand years of elite spirits from the ninja world—a force no ordinary person can handle. This necessitates having powerful allies to assist in resolving this formidable challenge. Hyuga Kanan believes that given Orochimaru and the others time to grow, they will undoubtedly become his trusted right-hand men. At that point, he will possess an incredibly powerful force capable of confronting any enemy.
Hyuga Kanan knew that an individual's strength was limited, but the power of a team was limitless. Only by uniting all forces that could be united could they remain invincible in this challenging world. Therefore, he decided to dedicate himself to training Orochimaru and others as his capable assistants to face future challenges together.
Hyuga Kanan calmly said, "There is indeed a way for you to quickly embark on the path of cultivation, but this method carries great risks and may even threaten your lives. Are you willing?"
