Chapter 47 Gain
three days later.

early morning.

Qingming walked out of the tent and passed through the base camp. Looking at the people coming and going, he inexplicably felt a sense of oppression as if a storm was about to come.

Qingming knew where this feeling came from - with Orochimaru's personality, it was absolutely impossible for him to just take a beating without fighting back.

The ambush in the canyon was one time, and the sneak attack three days ago was another time. After suffering two losses in a row, it was impossible for Orochimaru not to retaliate.

He had reason to suspect that the other party was planning a big move.

but
Qing Ming glanced at the traces of smoke and fire around him and knew that even if he wanted to take revenge, it would not be possible in a short period of time.

Three days ago, although Konoha resisted the joint attack by the Sand Ninja and the Rock Ninja, more than half of the supplies in the base camp were burned.

Therefore, before the new supplies arrive, Orochimaru is unlikely to make any major moves.

And based on the speed at which they rushed to the battlefield in Rain Country a month ago, it would take at least twenty days to deliver the supplies from Konoha here.

This does not include the time required to raise supplies. If someone disrupts the transportation of supplies, it will take even longer.

Qingming estimated that it would take at least a month to complete it.

In other words, there is a high probability that no large-scale fighting will occur in the next month.

This made him relax a little.

······
After leaving the base camp and passing through several lines of defense, Qingming arrived at a dense forest on the northwest side of the base camp.

As soon as he approached here, he heard a few shouts of people hammering tree stumps, and in the distance there was the clinking sound of weapons colliding.

Qingming was no longer surprised by this.

This is the area allocated by the base camp for ninja training, so it is normal for people to train here.

Even during wartime, it is impossible for ninjas to carry out missions all year round. Basically, they will get a few days of rest every ten days or half a month.

Under pressure from the battlefield, many ninjas would choose to practice during this period to improve their strength.

In order to facilitate management, the base camp specially allocated this area.

In the more than one month since he came to the battlefield, Qingming would come here whenever he had time, especially in the past three days, he came here to practice every day.

Qingming quickly came to an empty corner and drew out a dagger.

This short sword was seized from Shiraishi Cangdou. The sword was about half a meter long, with a silver-white blade. It was made of a mixture of fine iron mixed with some chakra-conducting metals.

It is not only strong and durable, but also has excellent energy transmission efficiency.

Unfortunately, Qingming's fire-style ninjutsu level was not high, and his understanding of fire-attribute chakra was too shallow. He was unable to complete the shape and property changes of the corresponding attribute chakra, and was unable to unleash the full power of this short blade.

Otherwise, when he uses the "Fire Blade" move, the enemy will not only suffer physical damage, but also have to endure the high temperature burns of the flames.

Shaking his head and putting these thoughts behind him for the time being, Qingming began to practice the 'Konoha Style Swordsmanship'.

That's right, Qing Ming has already exchanged for the 'Konoha Style Swordsmanship', and the process was very smooth, without any shit happening.

During the practice, Qingming discovered that the perfection of 'Basic Physical Skills' actually had an added benefit.

In just less than three days, he had already mastered the 'Konoha Style Sword Technique' and even reached level 1 (60/200).

According to Qing Ming's estimation, the difficulty of learning 'Konoha Style Swordsmanship' should be at C level. Even if it does not require too much chakra to practice, it will take at least three days to get started.

In comparison, this one is much faster.

As for the reason?

Qing Ming has roughly figured it out, that is, many of the techniques in 'Basic Physical Skills' are actually included in the 'Konoha Style Swordsmanship'.

In this way, the perfection of 'Basic Physical Techniques' is equivalent to him having learned part of the content of 'Konoha Style Sword Technique' in advance.

That’s why the progress is so fast!
However, Qingming estimated that this enhancement effect was limited and it was impossible to continuously assist the growth of the "Konoha Style Swordsmanship". After all, the "Basic Physical Skills" only contained so much, and once these foundations were consumed, they would naturally be useless.

Things developed pretty much as he expected.

Two days later.

morning.

When Qingming completed the practice of 'Konoha Style Sword Technique' again, his proficiency only increased a little.

At the same time, on his panel, the "Basic Physical Skills" in the skill bar flashed for a while and suddenly disappeared.

At first, Qingming was worried for a while, but after confirming that the relevant knowledge was still in his mind, he felt relieved.

It is obvious that the 'Basic Taijutsu' was completely absorbed by the 'Konoha Style Swordsmanship'.

At this time, the level of his 'Konoha Style Swordsmanship' is lv1 (181/200).

Since he was about to be promoted, Qing Ming naturally would not waste time. After a short rest, he began a new round of training.

However, without the buff of 'Basic Physical Skills', the training speed inevitably slowed down.

It was not until the afternoon that he finally mastered the Konoha Style Sword Art to level 2 (1/500).

At this moment, although Qing Ming was not yet an expert in swordsmanship, he was able to wield the short blade in his hand quite well.

After playing for a while, Qingming put down the short blade in his hand and began to review the whole process of practicing the "Konoha Style Sword Technique" in the past few days.

One thing is clear, that is, the rapid improvement of his 'Konoha-style swordsmanship' is absolutely inseparable from the 'basic physical skills' that he has already perfected.

From this, Qingming couldn't help but think of the situation when he was learning the 'Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique'.

At that time, it was precisely because he had mastered the 'Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique' to level 1 early on that he was able to quickly master the 'Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique'.

Even the 'Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique' that he learned later was only able to accumulate proficiency at a faster rate because he had learned 'Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique' and 'Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique' one after another.

At that time, he discovered a rule, that is, ninjutsu of the same attribute can promote each other to a certain extent.

But after all three ninjutsu are upgraded to level 1, this effect is not obvious, or almost non-existent.

So, he didn't pursue it further.

Now, Qingming found out that he was wrong.

He shouldn't have upgraded the levels of the three fire-style ninjutsu at the same time.

Since they are both C-level ninjutsu and their proficiency levels are not much different, there is not much point in learning from each other.

Therefore, proficiency can only be increased little by little.

The correct approach should be to first improve the level of a ninjutsu, thereby mastering the advanced usage of the corresponding attribute chakra, and then learn other related ninjutsu.

In this way, it is equivalent to senior students doing test questions for junior students, and the process will naturally be much easier.

This is reflected on the panel, and the proficiency has increased exponentially.

In this way, not only time can be saved, but also chakra can be saved.

This made Qing Ming regret not thinking of this earlier.

Fortunately, it's not too late.

Qing Ming opened the panel and took a glance, and finally decided to first upgrade the level of 'Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique' among the three fire style ninjutsu.

The reason for choosing this one is simple: it is the most practical.

As for other skills.
The correlation is not too great, just improve step by step.
