Chapter 53: Cultivation of the Book of Soldiers, Crisis of Human Pillar Power

  "You seem to be in high spirits, didn't I tell you before? The challenge of 'The Book of Soldiers' may be a bit simple for you, but at this stage of cultivation, it's extremely time-consuming. Even if you cultivate in this purple energy and achieve absolute calmness of the mind, it will take at least five years to make progress. Are you prepared to stay in these desolate mountains for five years?" Sally said with a hint of teasing.

  "It seems that I still can't cultivate for now. I'll just reunite with Kakashi-sensei and the others first," said Mugen, preparing to leave the spiritual world.

  "Wait, Meng Ling, what I meant was that you can't stay here forever, but you can learn a very convenient divine technique first. This technique allows you to practice while walking." As soon as he finished speaking, a commotion appeared in Meng Ling's spiritual world, and two beams of light, one gold and one purple, slowly descended before her.

  The light dissipated slowly, and two girls appeared in front of Meng Leng.

  "What... who are you?" Meng Ling was startled by the sudden change and stuttered.

  "Hey, Little Meng Ling has already forgotten us, we were just talking. A figure clad in a golden robe with golden long hair and sapphire-like blue eyes stared at Meng Ling."

  "Are you... Sally's sister?" Meng Ling asked tentatively.

  "Hehe, it seems your memory is still pretty good." Sally said with a smile.

  "Is that Sister Carmel?" Ling asked, pointing to a woman with purple hair and eyes, wearing a tight-fitting leather armor in front of her.

  "Hmm..." Karmel was still the same as ever, even after transforming his body, he still had an extremely cold demeanor.

  "Alas... Speaking of which, how can you guys appear here now? Could it be that I've already completed the cultivation of 'The Book of Soldiers'?" Meng Ling asked in puzzlement.

  "We had to wait until you completed the trial of 'The Book of Arms' before we could unseal our true forms, but now that you've cleared it, we can now manifest partial images of ourselves in your spiritual world." Sally explained.

  "So that's how it is. Then, what's this divine technique you said I can learn on the road?" Meng Ling asked curiously.

  "Take off." Sally said simply in two words.

  "Ascending cloud? Ascending what cloud? It can't be the Musclehead Cloud, right?" asked Meng Ling.

  "Kung Fu Cloud? Are you saying you want to flip around like that monkey from before too?" Sally's voice was a bit strange.

  "Uh, well... I guess you're right." Meng Ling said with some embarrassment.

  "For the Cloud Striding, you only need to use the Colorful Lucky Cloud, no need to jump around like that monkey. Girls should be more gentle." Sally said.

  "Yes, yes, I know." Meng Ling nodded and bowed her head, but in her heart, she was smiling wryly.

  "I still like Yun a bit more, and besides, I'm not even a girl in the first place!"

  "Alright, now I'll teach you the incantation for 'Tengyun'..." Sally said.

  "Meng Leng said somewhat unnaturally, 'I want to ask a question.'"

  "What's wrong? If you have something on your mind, just say it." Sally said with a smile.

  "I've already learned the 'Dance of Emptiness' from the Book of臨, and I can already fly to a certain extent. Why do I still need to learn 'Tengyun'?" Meng Ling asked.

  "This question is simple, do you think that with your current level of mastery of the Dance of the Air technique, you can achieve a speed of how much? You have qualified in grasping the Chaotic Divine Power to fight, but now your use of the Chaotic Divine Power is not yet up to par, it will take some time for you to slowly integrate and comprehend. However, 'Tengyun' (腾云) is different, it can greatly increase your flight speed, and when encountering difficulties, it can also allow multiple people to escape together. But your Dance of the Air technique can only guarantee your own personal aerial action ability, so in comparison, you should know which divine technique is more practical." Xier said with a smile.

  "If I had to say, if it's a solo fight in the air, then mastering 'Dance of the Air' would naturally give me more room for activity. However, if it's a team battle, then Cloudsurge is still more practical." Meng Ling replied.

  "Then don't waste words, go and get familiar with the Purple Qi now!" Karmel said sternly.

  "Ah, yes, I know." Meng Ling hastily walked into the purple gas surrounding the offering tower and began a virtual deduction.

  About ten minutes later, Meng Ling walked out of the purple gas.

  "It turns out that Tengyun is so easy to use. Well, I'll leave for a while now, Sally Ye sister, Carmel sister." Meng Ling said.

  "Alright, practice well then. Once you've fully mastered the 'Sky Escape' technique, come back here and continue your own divine technique training." Said Sally.

  "Uh-huh, I know. I'll definitely cultivate well." After Meng Ling responded with a sound, she closed her eyes in the spiritual world and left the spiritual world.

  "Hmm... let's try 'Tengyun' for now." Meng Ling opened his eyes, and the scene around him was still the cave where Qīwěi used to live.

  "Five-colored auspicious cloud." Meng Ling recited the 'Teng Yun' incantation, and instantly, a five-element radiant auspicious cloud gradually gathered around her.

  "Whoa......" Meng Ling excitedly jumped onto the colorful auspicious cloud and rose into the sky...

  ————I am that gorgeous dividing line————

  Mei Terumi was enjoying the thrill of flying while in the great hall of Takigakure, Kakashi and others were discussing about Shichibi.

  "Taki Kage-sama, the investigation of the sealed clan has been completed. This is the test result." A Taki ninja handed a document to Taki Kage's hand, and when Taki Kage saw the information on the document, his face turned very ugly.

  "So from now on, Fu is going to be the pillar of strength for Nanatai?" Taki Kage asked coldly.

  "It's indeed the case, Lord Taka. Given the situation at the time, Nanatsu no Tail was severely injured, it's unbelievable that there's someone in this world who can defeat a Tail Beast single-handedly. However, at that moment, Nanatsu chose to seal itself, which would prevent further damage. But since it was sealed while injured, the seal isn't very solid. After reinforcing the seal, Miss Fū's condition has stabilized for now, but it's still not stable enough... "

  "What if?" asked Taki Kage.

  "If no one with strong chakra uses a more solid sealing technique to solve the current problem, Lady Fu will explode and die." The Taki ninja said seriously.

  "What? What are we supposed to do now?" Taki Kage asked anxiously.

  "Now we don't have anyone here who can reinforce the seal on the Seven-Tails, so to say, we don't have any means at all." The Taki ninja said.

  "Ah, now Kakashi-sama is in a difficult situation." Kakashi said calmly as he looked at the situation before him.

  "Kakashi-senpai, why did you say that?" asked Tenzou from beside him.

  "Firstly, if Lord Tobi is to 'enter', the seal on Shichibi must be completely reinforced, but currently no one has that ability. Once the time comes, Lady Fuu will explode and die. And if Lord Tobi chooses to 'retreat', he must break the seal set by Shichibi himself, which would mean extracting the Tail Beast from Jinchuriki's body, and Fuu will still die." Kakashi explained.

  "What should we do now?" asked Tiantang.

  "If it were that girl who defeated the Seven-Tails back then, she might have been able to do this... Our chakra is just too little." Kakashi said somewhat powerlessly.

  "Right, that girl, let's all go find her now and bring... no, ask for her help just this once." Kakashi heard the words and made a decision immediately.

  "Lord Tobi, I'd like to ask, how much longer can Miss Fu's seal hold out?" Kakashi asked.

  "Hmm, it can probably last for about another month. The copied ninja of Konohagakure, do you have any plans?" Taki Kage asked.

  "I'm guessing that the girl is probably our missing Mei Ling from a while back, so I think we might be able to help with this," Kakashi said.

  "Thank you so much." Taki Kage forced a smile and said.

  "Alright, I wonder if there are still any items on Tayuya's body?" Kakashi asked the people around him.

  "Ah, yes! I know that Temari brought a lot of shuriken this time, even more than the ones in the store. At the time, Temari said that this mission would be a bit difficult, so she gave me some. Here's one." On the side, Fuu Kasumi took out the special shuriken that Temari had given her from her ninja tool bag and flashed it in Kakashi's eyes.

  "Hmm, that's it then. Hare-Usagi-Tori-Saru-Uma... Summoning Jutsu!" Kakashi bit his own finger and used the Summoning Jutsu to call out all eight of his ninja dogs. Then he put the special scentless powder made by Tsunade on the noses of the eight ninja dogs for them to sniff.

  "Can we find the owner of this thing?" Kakashi asked.

  "Uh, to be honest you might not believe it, but right now there's nobody on the ground with the same scent as this weapon." Parker said first.

  "What did you say? Not on the ground? Are you still in the sky?" Kakashi asked with some surprise.

  "Don't think about it anymore, the owner of this smell is approaching us now. And the smell on the body of the owner of this smell seems to have changed a bit." said Buru (the largest of the ninja dogs).

  About one minute later, just as everyone was anxiously waiting...

  "Hey, Kakashi-sensei, you're here too." Meng Leng, who had changed his appearance, pushed open the door of the Takahashi Hall and smiled as he greeted everyone.
