Chapter 71 - Chapter 71: I Cheated Death, Now I Cheat Life!

Half a month after taming the Millennium Dragon,

On this day, Ethan was practicing the health-preserving technique in the courtyard of Sky Island.

At this time, his health-preserving technique had reached the state of perfection, and he was only one step away from breaking through the limit.

[You take Sea Kings meat to assist in practicing the health-preserving technique, and your health-preserving technique proficiency increases by +10. Your health-preserving technique breaks through the limit of perfection, and you suddenly realize...]

The next moment, Ethan felt that he was in an ethereal state.

The flexibility of the brain and thinking has not only increased by a thousand times—ten thousand times?

For a while, countless inspirations about health-preserving techniques continued to emerge, and quickly began to build the prototype of a new technique.

And constantly improve.

"Huh? What's wrong with Ethan"?

Not far away, Kushina, who was also practicing, suddenly discovered Ethan's abnormality and said with some concern,.

He was ready to step forward.

"Don't move! Don't make a sound!"

Mikoto quickly grabbed her and made a "hush" gesture, whispering to Kushina and Minato, who was also startled, "It should be an epiphany, Ethan told me!"

"We can't disturb him so as not to destroy his epiphany."

"Also, Kushina, can you set up a soundproof barrier around here to prevent Ethan from being disturbed?"

Obviously, Ethan specifically told Mikoto.

"Eh? Epiphany? Like the time he created the source Chakra refining book?"

Kushina exclaimed in a low voice.

"Yeah!"

Mikoto nodded affirmatively: "Don't say anything; set up a soundproof barrier first!"

"Okay!"

Kushina nodded quickly and immediately formed a seal and slapped the ground.

Instantly, a large number of sealing runes flowed out from her palms, drawing a circle around Ethan.

A soundproof barrier was formed instantly, covering Ethan and excluding Kushina and the other three.

"Huh!"

After doing all this, Kushina stood up, took a long breath, looked at Ethan with some curiosity and worry, and asked Mikoto, "Ethan will really be fine like this?"

"Definitely not! Just wait patiently!"

Mikoto shook his head and said, "I don't know what Ethan can understand this time."

"It should be related to the health-preserving exercise, right?"

Kushina continued, "I saw Ethan practicing the health-preserving exercise before; look, he moved! Is this a health-preserving exercise?"

"No! No! It has changed! It has changed! Moreover, it has changed more and more... Now, it is completely different from the previous health-preserving exercise!"

In the barrier, Ethan began to dance at some point, practicing a set of cultivation methods that were increasingly different from the previous health-preserving exercises.

He was also constantly changing in the process.

A mysterious aura emerged all over his body, which made Kushina and the others dazzled.

By analogy, he felt that his understanding of the health-preserving exercises was also starting to rise.

Half an hour later,

Ethan's new exercises were finally perfected, and he also came out of the state of enlightenment.

[Your health-preserving exercises have broken the limit of perfection; you have had a sudden enlightenment, and you have comprehended the longevity secret.]

[Longevity Secret]: A technique that is advanced from the sudden enlightenment of the health-preserving exercises.

Practicing it can regulate the body, prolong life, improve healing and recovery abilities, cleanse the marrow and remove hair, and improve the root bone qualifications.

Its effect is ten times that of the health-preserving exercises.

"Huh! This is a big harvest!"

Ethan came out of the sudden enlightenment, and Ethan understood the longevity secret of the exercises he obtained this time.

This technique is essentially still an advanced version of the health-preserving exercises.

In fact, it is normal.

His talent of "divine work talent" was introduced long ago. Any skill that breaks through the limit with its help, and the skill after enlightenment is closely related to the skill that Ethan practices [learning the boxing feeling].

If Ethan has learned other similar skills before enlightenment, then the skill after enlightenment is the product of the sublimation of these skills.

Now Ethan only practices the same type of skill, the health-preserving skill, and the skill after enlightenment is naturally like an advanced version of the health-preserving skill.

He looked at it and found that this enlightenment not only created the longevity secret but also his life span soared by 20 years again, reaching 222 years.

Think about it: when he just awakened his past life memory, he only had 6 months left to live.

As a result, now it's only been more than 2 months, and his life span has exceeded 200 years.

It's incredible.

The life of cheating is so incredible!

In addition, Ethan felt that there was a layer of smelly black mud on his body.

Obviously, these are the impurities produced by the marrow washing and hair removal when the skill breaks the limit.

"Ethan, have you finished your epiphany? How do you feel?"

At this time, Kushina and the others outside saw that Ethan seemed to have woken up and quickly lifted the barrier and wanted to go forward.

"Wait a minute, I'll go take a shower first!"

Ethan quickly raised his hand to stop them, and then, without waiting for their answer, he teleported back to the bathroom of the ninja world.

After washing several times and confirming that there was no odor on his body, he took out a spare set of clean clothes from the storage space and changed into them.

And took the previous clothes directly to the backyard and destroyed them physically with a Fire Style.

Only then did he check other changes in his body with a refreshed mind.

After all, this time he completed a major marrow cleansing and hair removal; it is impossible that there would be no changes.

Soon, he found that his physique was 30% stronger.

More importantly, the tendons and veins became more spacious and tough.

The improvement was at least doubled.

Then, he tried to practice the basic physical skills again.

I immediately felt the changes.

"My physique and physical talent have also increased by more than double! I've made a lot of money this time!"

"It seems that the effect of limited skills is amazing!"

"It's not just the benefits of the sudden enlightenment technique!"

Ethan finished practicing basic physical skills, stopped, and said with emotion,.

"It's time to go back there!"

Thinking of this, he teleported back to Sky Island.

"Yo!"

Seeing that Kushina and the others were still practicing, Ethan smiled and waved: "I'm back!"

"You're finally back! Why were you running just now?"

Kushina and the other two stopped practicing and gathered around. Kushina asked curiously,.

"Well... it's mainly because of the breakthrough of health-preserving exercises, the sudden enlightenment, and the completion of a deep level of marrow washing and hair removal, and then, you know..."

Ethan spread his hands and explained.

"So that's it!"

Kushina and the other two suddenly realized.

No wonder Ethan ran so fast just now!

Indeed, every breakthrough in the understanding of health-preserving exercises will trigger the effect of marrow washing and hair removal.

However, the transition from entry to proficiency is very slight, and the higher the subsequent proficiency, the stronger the effect of marrow washing and hair removal.

What Ethan did just now was a breakthrough of the Great Perfection limit, and the effect can be imagined.

And washing the marrow and removing the hair will repel impurities, and the body will smell very bad.

"How is it? What did you realize this time"?

Mikoto asked curiously at this time.

Minato and Kushina also looked over eagerly.

"Don't think about it for now!"

Ethan saw this and shook his head with a smile: "This time I did create a stronger health-preserving method, called the immortality technique, which has ten times the effect of health-preserving exercises in all aspects. It is a completely advanced version of health-preserving exercises!"

.....

"But correspondingly, the difficulty of practicing is at least ten times that of health-preserving exercises:"

"Moreover, you need to practice health-preserving exercises to the great perfection before you can switch to practice!"

"So, don't think about it for a short time! Practice health-preserving exercises to perfection first!"

For now, health-preserving exercises are enough for Mikoto and others.

"Ah? Is that so? It seems that there is no way for the time being!"

Kushina's face fell immediately after hearing this. "Hehe!"

Mikoto saw this and smiled with her hands covering her mouth, saying, "It's good to lay a good foundation first!" "Besides, the current health-preserving exercises are actually enough! Isn't it?" "That's true!"

Kushina nodded in agreement, and her depression was immediately swept away.

She is such an optimistic person. "Okay! Let's continue to practice! I'll practice too!"

Ethan clapped his hands, walked aside immediately, separated several Shadow Clones, and began to practice Ninjutsu, Chakra control, and seals, respectively.

The main body began to practice his Thunder Fruit ability.

After more than ten days of practice, his Thunder Fruit ability has now developed to a proficient level.

Relatively speaking, the improvement is not fast.

The main reason is that his physique and physical strength are limited, and he can't exercise much time every day.

When his physique is further improved, the time he can exercise every day can be increased, and his proficiency can be improved faster.

But this can't be rushed.

Physical fitness can only be improved step by step.

But with the health-preserving skills, his physical fitness has improved more than ten times that of his peers.

Hmm! Peers in the pirate world.

Forget about the ninja world.

Most of them are squishy with high and low defense.

Now with the advanced version of the immortality technique, he estimates that the speed of his physical fitness improvement will increase by more than ten times.

"It feels good to cheat!"

When Ethan thought of this, he felt happy.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Ethan received a message from the communication space and immediately sank part of his mind into the communication space to take a look.

It was found that it was a message from Ninja Eagle Ryuu.

Ethan immediately took out Ryuu's note and took a look.

[Written on it: The map of Shimotsuki Island has been lit up; please confirm it, master!]

That's right! This is written by Ninja Eagle Ryuu.

Since it was bound to Ethan, it has been cultivated by Ethan.

Not only is there enough Sea King meat every day, but recently, when Ethan was tailoring a version of health-preserving exercises for the Millennium Dragon, he also thought of Ryuu, so he also customized a version of health-preserving exercises for it.

Relying on this health-preserving exercise, Ryu's lifespan is not only increasing, but his physical constitution is also improving. The key is that his digestion and absorption ability has more than doubled.

As a result, his growth rate is getting faster and faster, his physique is getting stronger, his size is getting bigger, and his wisdom is getting higher.

Now, he is not only eloquent and can speak human language but also has learned to write.

Of course, this is thanks to Ethan's spiritual transmission of a large amount of text and knowledge to Ryu.

Otherwise, even if his wisdom is constantly improving, he can't learn so fast.

By the way, the Millennium Dragon has been unsealed by Ethan and temporarily placed on Sky Island.

He practices health-preserving exercises every day to extend his lifespan.

As for its food?

Of course, it goes to Otamo below to hunt sea kings.

Otherwise, given its size and appetite, Ethan would have to spend a lot of time preparing food for it every day.

That is to say, it has not recovered enough now, and its strength is far from returning to its peak. Otherwise, Ethan would have wanted to send it to run around the map.

This guy's speed at his peak is much faster than Ryuu's.
