The sll of blood perated the cabin, waking up the sleeping Bubu Wang.
Witnessing Su Xiao lying in a pool of blood, Bubu Wang imdiately jumped off the bed, stood in front of Su Xiao, and twitched his nose to find the enemy’s location.
After a few seconds, Bubu Wang didn’t sll anything suspicious. Looking at the knife in Su Xiao’s hand and the wood chips around, Bubu Wang vaguely guessed sothing and helplessly licked Su Xiao. This wasn’t the first ti, nor would it be the last.
As his Life Value gradually recovered, Su Xiao’s wounds stopped bleeding, and he slowly woke up.
"Almost... died, cough~"
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Su Xiao nonetheless showed a smile on his face.
After eating a piece of restorative food, wiping the bloodstains from his body, and bandaging himself up, Su Xiao’s condition stabilized sowhat.
Though it was dangerous just now, he accidentally developed a very strong move. If perfected, any enemy struck by Dragon Slaying Thrust would not die but be severely wounded.
Ring Break was obviously not perfected successfully, but he developed another technique, which was the sharp spike generated after Blue Steel Shadow wrapped around the Blade Aura. This spike had extrely strong penetration power, which Su Xiao personally experienced.
Imagine this: after Su Xiao thrusts Dragon Slash into the enemy’s body, wrapping Blue Steel Shadow on the blade, the spike would pierce outward from within the enemy, causing intense pain...
Without a doubt, the enemy would instantly turn into a porcupine, with a high chance of imdiate death.
A one-hit kill blade? Su Xiao shook his head. It wasn’t considered a one-kill blade, but it would cause significant damage to the enemy.
Su Xiao held Dragon Slash, wrapping Blue Steel Shadow around it.
Closing his eyes, Su Xiao tried to gather the Blade Aura on Dragon Slash without making a cleave.
Swish.
A few light blue spikes ford on the blade of Dragon Slash, stabbing outward. These spikes were half a ter long and finger-thick.
After using it several tis, Su Xiao beca sowhat familiar with this ability.
Su Xiao pondered for a while. Since this is a derivative ability of Blue Steel Shadow, naming it ’Shadow Sting’ seems fitting, straightforward, and easily understandable.
Su Xiao casually nad his techniques, such as Ring Break. ’A Blade Aura that slashes surrounding objects’ is abbreviated as Ring Break. While Ring Break could be called sothing like ’Celestial Horse Ring Star Slash’, which sounds ’imposing’, he prefers more practical nas. Even if nad ’Celestial Horse Ring Star Slash’, it wouldn’t enhance Ring Break’s attack power, so keeping it simple is better.
Currently, Su Xiao has developed two relatively practical techniques: ’Ring Break’ and ’Shadow Sting’. These self-developed abilities have a common feature: they have no cooldown ti and no fixed values, with power being fully controlled by the user.
The developnt direction of ’Ring Break’ is to increase slicing power and expand its range, while ’Shadow Sting’ has various usage thods that require gradual exploration.
Su Xiao had an idea: could he stab Dragon Slash into the ground and let ’Shadow Sting’ pierce out from near the enemy?
This idea is temporarily unreliable. Although Shadow Sting’s penetration power is strong, even surpassing Blade Aura, it’s too short, only half a ter. Increasing its length requires consuming a large amount of Blue Steel Shadow energy.
With a new technique successfully developed, its effect needs to be tested in combat. After cleaning up the bloodstains on the ground, Su Xiao lay on the bed and fell asleep.
...
The fourth day in the Naruto World, morning.
The sea was a vast expanse of blue, with several seagulls gliding by.
The large sailing ship had been at sea for two days, and the mainline mission’s ti limit had just over a day left. If Su Xiao had not joined any faction by then, he would be forcibly executed.
At this mont, strange sounds emanated from a cabin.
"Uh~, it hurts."
"Wait... wait a mont, uh~"
Whimpering sounds ca from the cabin. After so ti, Songstress Nae, with a slightly flushed face, stepped out of the cabin, her clothing a bit disheveled.
Don’t misunderstand; Su Xiao was just helping Nae remove a bomb. The Songstress had no enmity with him, so he helped her remove it.
After two days at sea, land finally appeared before them — the Country of Fire.
The Country of Fire is the most prosperous location in the Naruto World, with a year-round spring-like climate, neither too cold nor too hot.
Arable land is abundant here, with plenty of herbivorous animals. There are several large rivers, making farming, hunting, and fishing readily available. Even in tis of war, it’s rare for people to starve in the Country of Fire, as it is simply too prosperous.
Such prosperity has drawn the envy of other countries or Ninja Villages. But this wealth cos at a cost as the geographical position of the Country of Fire in terms of war can only be described as poor.
To the west, it borders the Land of Sand; to the north, the Land of Earth; to the east, the Land of Thunder. To the south is the sea, but don’t think the sea’s direction is safe, as the Land of Water lies there.
Surrounded by the Four Great Countries, if it weren’t for the formidable Konoha Village, the Country of Fire would have long been devoured into pieces by the Four Great Countries.
On the left, the Land of Sand is full of sand and has long coveted the Country of Fire. On the right, the Land of Thunder is ho to a group of warmongers who raid the Country of Fire for spoils even during tis of peace. Above, the Land of Earth is ambitious, having reached out for the Country of Fire more than once. Only the Land of Water is the most honest because it is busy with internal strife. Otherwise, it would be the most likely to invade the Country of Fire, as it is too poor.
Even so, the Country of Fire still stands firm at the map’s center, showcasing its financial and military prowess.
...
The large sailing ship slowly approached the shore, and Su Xiao jumped off the ship, landing in the lands of the Country of Fire.
As soon as Su Xiao disembarked, the sailing ship imdiately set sail, as if fleeing, heading to the distance.
Breathing in the fresh air, Su Xiao felt pretty good. Now he just needed to join a faction, and he already had a target.
Joining Konoha was unlikely. A Great Ninja Village like Konoha rarely accepts outsiders unless there’s a special reason. Especially for soone like Su Xiao, whose temperant only prisons in Konoha would welco.
There are other factions around the Country of Fire, and given Su Xiao’s strength, he could easily join a dium-sized faction.
Crossing the beach, Su Xiao arrived at a lush grassland. Occasionally, he saw low shrubs and various wild animals, with birds chirping continuously.
After taking only a few steps, Su Xiao stopped.
[Prompt: A contract transmission has been detected within the Derivative World. Do you wish to open the ’Derived World Contact Platform’?]
Su Xiao was taken aback. Previously, when he advanced to Second Tier, he received a prompt: ’Derived World Contact Platform has been opened’. He never knew what it was.
Before, a defeated Second Tier contractor once ntioned the ’Derived World Contact Platform’.
After hesitating for a mont, Su Xiao chose to open it.
[Derived World Contact Platform has been opened. This function is free. Remaining communication attempts: 5/5.]
A virtual chat box appeared in front of him, with lines of text on it.
Divine Emperor (God Emperor Adventure Group Leader): "Blood Gate scums, I am waiting with my team at the outermost forest of Konoha Village for you."
Stan (The Head of the Blood Gate Adventure Group): "Wait, we’ll be there in at most three hours. Whoever wins gets the Demon Hunting Ring."
Gulu (Sixth in the travel group): "Divine Emperor, you’ll soon join your sister."
Jin Shisi (Leader of the Barbarian Sky Adventure Group): "Outside Konoha’s forest? Count my Barbarian Sky Adventure Group in."
Karlo (Loner): "Let watch the big shots tear at each other."
Second Ma (Ao Ba Adventure Team mber): "Are you kidding? Is the Naruto World going to have a lee? Can people still survive?"
Cotton Snow (Ao Ba Adventure Team mber): "Second Ma, how embarrassing. You should leave the group."
