Xingxia Xiu's face almost turned green.
Who can stand this?
No wonder it needs to be used with caution.
However, to Hoshino Hide's relief, it wasn't actually made of steel.
Bringing his thoughts back on track, Xingxia Xiu reconsidered the possibility of Steel Release.
"Considering the nature of the transformation, Steel Release is most likely formed by a combination of Earth Release and Fire Release."
"Disaster……"
He has mastered the Earth Release nature transformation, but he does not have mastered the Fire Release nature transformation.
Of course, it's not that it's impossible to control.
Even if one could master the Fire Release nature transformation within seven days, the possibility of the two nature transformations fusing to form a new Steel Release nature transformation is extremely low.
Xingxia Xiu is self-aware enough not to be a genius to that extent.
In other words, it is impossible to permanently solidify the "Iron Body" by cultivating the Steel Escape technique.
"Then it seems that the only way is to start with the nature transformation of Earth Release."
Hoshino immediately thought of Earth Release: Earth Spear, a technique he obtained from Takigakure.
This Earth Release ninjutsu hardens the skin, making it as tough as steel and impervious to physical attacks.
It looks like a weakened version of "Body of Steel".
So, if it can harden the skin, can it also harden muscles, bones, and even internal organs?
In the end, hardening the entire body will result in a state similar to the current "Iron Body" state?
"That's certainly one direction, but seven days..."
I wasn't very confident about the show.
But let's give it a try anyway.
Even if this approach fails to secure the "Iron Body," it will still be a significant gain in itself.
"Let's give it a try."
Xingxia Xiu immediately formed hand seals and created three wooden clones in one go.
The reason for not allocating more resources was to take into account the possibility of a battle.
The three clones appeared and immediately began to attempt it.
One hardened muscle, one hardened bone, and one hardened internal organs.
Hardened skin is essentially no different from hardened muscles, bones, and internal organs.
In other words, if it can harden the skin, then there is no threshold for hardening muscles, bones, and internal organs.
However, as soon as it tried, the clone felt its chakra rapidly draining away.
It consumes a lot of resources!
However, it can still withstand it.
The three clones gradually hardened different parts of their bodies.
The first part to be completed was the hardened internal organs, which appeared unchanged on the surface.
The clone said, "Even in the state of the steel body, after the internal organs hardened, I felt a difference and had a stronger explosive power, although the improvement was very slight in the state of the steel body."
"If the bones, muscles, and skin are hardened together, that is, the entire body is hardened, the explosive power and strength will be greatly enhanced."
"However, the chakra consumption is extremely high, no less than that of the Wind Release: Rasenshuriken, and it is a continuous drain."
Xingxia Xiu nodded.
The hardened internal organs were removed, leaving behind a wooden figure.
After absorbing the experience, Xingxia Xiu looked at the other two clones.
The clone with hardened bones was just completed when it said, "He's right, explosive power and strength will be enhanced."
"It's very noticeable after the bones harden."
"However, I think it would be faster to harden the whole body at the cellular level."
Xingxia Xiu nodded in agreement: "Indeed."
"Chakra is extracted from the cells, then Earth Release nature transformation is used to harden the cells."
"However, this requires a very strong ability to control chakra."
The clone laughed and said, "If you try your best, there shouldn't be any problem."
After saying that, his clone turned to wood.
Soon, the third clone also completed the hardening of its muscles.
He stretched his body and said, "My physical flexibility hasn't decreased."
"It's not that my strength has increased, but rather that my defense has improved, which means I can withstand stronger reaction forces and thus unleash my full power."
Xingxia Xiu nodded in agreement.
The human body has a self-protective mechanism.
The first few gates of the Eight Gates Formation are designed to disable the body's self-protective mechanisms, thereby squeezing out its potential.
A person's inability to fully utilize their strength is due not only to a lack of precise control over their body, but also to the existence of self-protective mechanisms.
The last clone dissipated.
Xingxia Xiu carefully absorbed the experience of the clone, and then formed hand seals.
His skin began to harden, and the moment he completed the hand seal, his entire skin turned black.
Next come the muscles, bones, and internal organs.
The latest novel is first published here!
The whole process took a full ten seconds.
When it was finished, he looked like he was sculpted from marble.
It is significantly different from simple hardened skin.
It seems as if the person has become diamond-like.
Xingxia Xiu clearly felt that, unlike his state of steel body, he was different.
The body hardens, giving the impression that the entire body has truly turned into a diamond.
Even in the state of a steel body, it still feels like flesh and blood to the touch, but when the body is hardened, there is no such feeling.
"Even if it's not possible to permanently solidify the [Iron Body], this technique is still extremely valuable."
Xingxia smiled.
Of course, such a long wind-up is obviously not practical in actual combat.
However, the pre-rocking time can be continuously shortened through constant practice.
If one can achieve what the clone just said—directly harden the cells—then one can harden the entire body instantly, just like Kakuzu.
"This technique... is called the Indestructible Body!"
Xingxiaxiu was named after the stars.
The difficulty level of the technique has been raised to A level, up from the original B level!
After the indestructible body was fully formed, Xingxia Xiu temporarily put the solidified [Iron Body] aside and immediately created a clone to cultivate the technique, while his main body rested.
Silent all night.
The next morning, just as Hoshishita Hide woke up, Inuzuka Ryo hurriedly pushed open the door and entered: "A, Lord Danzo has arrived!"
Xingxia Xiu was secretly startled upon hearing this.
Danzo's arrival in person means that Konoha is about to launch a full-scale attack on the Sky Ninja Village.
Hiruzen Sarutobi seized the opportunity decisively.
Ren Xiong during this period!
With a sigh to herself, Xingxia Xiu put on her mask and strode out.
Outside, many Root ninjas knelt on one knee, while Danzo stood.
Hoshita Hide immediately stepped forward: "Lord Danzo!"
Danzo nodded slightly, his expression dignified, but as he looked at Hoshita Hide, the satisfaction in his eyes was undisguised: "Kou, you did very well!"
"Hiruzen has made the decision to wage war against the Sky Ninja, but it will take some time for the village to mobilize its forces, so we need to keep the Sky Ninja in their current state of chaos."
"To prevent them from organizing an effective response when our follow-up forces arrive."
"A, I need you to infiltrate the Sky Ninja Village again and create chaos."
Hoshita Hide bowed slightly and accepted the order: "Yes, Your subordinate understands, and will certainly not disappoint Lord Danzo!"
Danzo nodded slightly and said, "Go ahead, I will personally lead men outside to support you."
"clear!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xingxia Xiu's figure disappeared from the spot.
