Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Promotion
A little over ten minutes later, Qingming arrived at his destination. Upon entering the cave, he was greeted by three figures—his three shadow clones. The fourth clone had already dispelled itself to relay information to him.
Qingming nodded at the three clones and asked, "How is your chakra now?"
"Two thousand one, two thousand, two thousand three," they replied in sequence.
"That's a bit low," Qingming murmured, frowning. "You should dispel the jutsu for now."
"Understood," the three clones replied without further comment and immediately dispelled the "Shadow Clone Technique."
As a result, over ninety percent of the chakra from the three clones surged into Qingming, filling his chakra reserves to the brim.
At the same time, the memories of the three clones flooded into Qingming's mind. After quickly reviewing their memories to ensure there were no omissions, he formed hand seals and cast the "Shadow Clone Technique" once again.
With a series of "thump thump thump" sounds, accompanied by a puff of chakra smoke, four identical figures of Qingming emerged, representing his latest set of shadow clones.
Thanks to the abundance of chakra within him, these four shadow clones each received over four thousand chakra points.
After refreshing the state of his clones, Qingming sent them off to continue the capture missions while he began his own training.
However, before he could train, he first needed to restore his chakra reserves.
With that thought in mind, Qingming approached the five unconscious cloud and rock ninjas. He formed hand seals and activated the "Chakra Absorption Technique."
In less than half a minute, he drained the chakra from all five individuals, raising his own chakra from just over four thousand to just above twenty thousand.
Satisfied, Qingming found a suitable spot, sat cross-legged, and began practicing the "Heart Reflection Technique."
Once, twice, three times.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes.
Soon, an hour had passed.
During this time, Qingming had successfully cast the "Heart Reflection Technique" sixty times, raising its proficiency from level 6 (9895/10000) to level 6 (9955/10000).
As he observed the nearing promotion to level 7 of the "Heart Reflection Technique," Qingming felt a surge of excitement.
Nevertheless, he suppressed the urge to continue training.
At this moment, his remaining chakra was only half of what it could be at full capacity. Given the uncertainty of the current situation, he didn't want to deplete all his chakra reserves.
With this in mind, Qingming stood up and approached the five cloud and rock ninjas once more, casting the "Chakra Absorption Technique" again.
However, this time, he wasn't absorbing chakra; they had already run out of it. Instead, he absorbed their mental and physical energy.
After replenishing his chakra, Qingming entered a training state once more.
Before long, half an hour passed.
When Qingming cast the "Heart Reflection Technique" for the forty-fifth time, a sudden insight dawned on him.
He immediately realized that his "Heart Reflection Technique" had leveled up.
"Status panel!"
With a thought, Qingming opened his proficiency panel.
In the next instant, a familiar pale blue screen appeared before him.

"Indeed, it increased a bit!"
Looking at the panel, where the "Mental Strength" attribute rose from 14 to 15, Qingming murmured to himself.
Earlier, when the "Heart Reflection Technique" upgraded from level 6 to level 7, he had sensed an increase in his mental power and guessed that it might be due to the boost in his "Mental Strength."
Now, seeing the evidence, he confirmed his suspicions.
When his "Heart Reflection Technique" had previously upgraded from level 5 to level 6, his "Mental Strength" had also increased slightly.
Unexpectedly, it had increased again this time.
"What a pleasant surprise!"
Muttering to himself, Qingming began to carefully feel the changes that this point in mental strength brought him.
After a moment, he opened his eyes.
A mixed expression of joy and concern appeared on his face.
The joy came from the fact that this boost in "Mental Strength" would likely raise his chakra limit by approximately six thousand points.
This meant that, in the near future, his chakra limit could reach thirty-five thousand points.
Additionally, regarding chakra recovery—
With his "Mental Strength" rising from 14 to 15, he could expect an additional four thousand points of chakra recovery each day.
In other words, his daily recovery would increase from seventeen thousand points to twenty-one thousand points.
These were all reasons to be pleased, but there were also worrying aspects.
The gap between his "Mental Strength" and "Physique" attributes had widened with this boost.
Previously, after his Sharingan evolved into three tomoe, his "Mental Strength" was three points higher than his "Physique."
Now, with another increase, that gap had widened to four points.
Moreover, it was foreseeable that before long, his Sharingan would evolve again, further inflating his "Mental Strength" and exacerbating the disparity.
And the consequences of having an overly large gap between physical and mental attributes had already been demonstrated by Uchiha Itachi.
He had suffered because he unlocked the Mangekyō too early, which resulted in excessive mental pressure on his body and ultimately led to genetic disease.
Qingming did not wish to end up like him, needing medication to alleviate a condition.
While not every ninja with a bloodline limit suffered from "bloodline disease," it was certain that the more talented individuals were at greater risk.
Qingming glanced at the current progress of his Sharingan—(5115/10000)!
After the "Heart Reflection Technique" had upgraded from level 6 to level 7, it had once again enhanced its effect on the Sharingan's progression, just as he had anticipated.
Now, with each practice session, his Sharingan would gain one point towards its evolution.
In this way, he would only need to accumulate less than five thousand points of proficiency for his Sharingan to evolve into Mangekyō.
And to achieve that five thousand points of proficiency, only eight hundred thousand chakra would be needed.
Even without external sources of chakra, Qingming could accumulate this amount in forty days, given his daily recovery of twenty-one thousand chakra.
With external chakra supplies, that time could be even shorter.
Considering this calculation, he was indeed quite the genius. However, being a genius also came with the risk of illness, and Qingming didn't want to take that gamble.
Thus, it was imperative to enhance his "Physique" attribute.
