Chapter 100: Chapter 100: Fusion
Time flew by, and soon it was dusk. After completing their last round of patrols, Qingming and his team returned to the camp.
After finishing the handover with the incoming patrol team, they followed the main force eastward, heading towards their base camp.
Thus, the week-long patrol mission was successfully completed.
Including the previous two missions, Qingming had already completed three missions since returning to the frontlines over twenty days ago.
He would now have approximately a week to rest.
Well... Resting wasn't really an option, as he still had many things to take care of.
The day after returning to the base camp, Qingming headed to the training ground on the northwest side of the camp early in the morning.
He found a quiet corner and began practicing the Uchiha Sword Style.
During the past seven days, in the intervals between patrol duties, he had already leveled up the Konoha Sword Style to its maximum proficiency of Lv5 (0/0).
Next, he only needed to max out the Uchiha Sword Style as well, and he could attempt to fuse them.
This wouldn't take long, as his Uchiha Sword Style was already at Lv4 (1985/2000), just a step away from being perfected.
Qingming practiced the Uchiha Sword Style over and over, feeling a surge of insights as his proficiency slowly increased by +1 each time.
This constant influx of understanding fueled his motivation to tirelessly repeat the same movements.
As time passed, Qingming gradually entered a state of complete focus, where the Uchiha Sword Style was the only thing on his mind.
In the blink of an eye, several hours had gone by.
Around midday, after Qingming had once again completed the full sequence of the Uchiha Sword Style, a new insight suddenly dawned on him.
In that moment, Qingming realized that he had gained a deeper understanding of the Uchiha Sword Style.
"Perfected!"
The thought flashed through Qingming's mind but was quickly cast aside.
There was no need to dwell on it, as the insights from the Konoha Sword Style also surfaced in his mind.
The two sword styles intertwined and gradually fused, breaking through their respective limits and evolving into a brand-new sword technique.
This new style combined the best elements of the Konoha Sword Style with the Uchiha Sword Style's synergy with the Sharingan, as if it were tailor-made for Qingming.
No, this was indeed a sword style created by him, designed specifically to suit him.
Suddenly, Qingming opened his eyes, his gaze filled with excitement.
"Status panel!"
With a thought, Qingming opened his proficiency panel.
In the next moment, the familiar light blue screen appeared.
Name: Uchiha Qingming
Age: 11 years
Physique: 9 → 10
Spirit: 11

Substitution Technique: Lv3 (0/0)
Body Flicker Technique: Lv4 (0/0)
Throwing Weapons: Lv5 (0/0)
The panel no longer showed the Konoha Sword Style or the Uchiha Sword Style. Instead, they had been replaced by a new skill labeled Swordsmanship.
Moreover, its level had surpassed the previous limit of Lv5 (0/0), becoming Lv5 (1/5000).
This meant that he could continue increasing its proficiency.
Additionally, the fusion of the two sword styles had triggered the accumulation of the foundation Qingming had built over two months of rigorous training, causing his Physique attribute to increase by 1, from 9 to 10.
Qingming took a moment to feel the changes in his body and could clearly sense that another limit had been broken.
In other words, his potential had once again been enhanced.
Sitting cross-legged, Qingming activated the Chakra Refining Technique to sense the changes in his body and calculate the effects of the increased Physique attribute.
After about an hour, Qingming opened his eyes, a smile forming on his face.
The boost in his Physique attribute had brought more surprises than he had expected.
First was the increase in his chakra limit.
According to his estimates, this increase in Physique should raise his chakra limit by at least 3,000 points.
To put this in perspective, the last time his Sharingan evolved—when his Physique increased by 1 and his Spirit increased by 2—his chakra limit had only increased by a little over 5,000 points.
Now, with just a single increase in his Physique, his chakra limit was expected to rise by 3,000 points. This was unusually high.
After some quick thought, Qingming realized the reason behind it.
The last time his chakra only increased by 5,000 points was due to the imbalance between his Physique and Spirit.
In simpler terms, his lower Physique had limited his chakra growth.
Now that his Physique had increased by 1, it had removed some of these limitations, allowing his chakra to increase more than expected.
Previously, this wasn't as noticeable because both attributes were relatively low. Even if there had been a difference, it wouldn't have been significant.
However, as his Physique and Spirit attributes continued to grow, the gap between them widened.
As a result, even a small difference in attribute points would lead to a massive change.
From this, he could conclude that in order to maximize chakra growth in the future, he would need to keep his two base attributes as balanced as possible.
After making a mental note of this, Qingming moved on to the second surprise—the increase in his chakra recovery speed.
With the boost in his Physique, he estimated that his daily chakra recovery rate should now increase by about 2,000 points.
In other words, from now on, Qingming would be able to use around 10,000 chakra points per day, instead of 8,000.
He planned to use the extra 2,000 chakra points to practice the Shadow Clone Technique.
Since he had no missions this week, he could keep his chakra levels low the whole time.
That way, while practicing the Shadow Clone Technique, he wouldn't deplete too much chakra, and the extra 2,000 points should allow him to gain around 10 to 20 points of proficiency in the technique.
In about a week, he should be able to bring the technique to the beginner level.
With that plan in mind, Qingming sheathed his short sword and first practiced the Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Technique ten times, using up 850 chakra points and gaining 10 proficiency points.
Then, he did the same with the Demonic Illusion: Shackling Stakes Technique and Genjutsu: Sharingan, increasing each of their proficiencies by 10 points as well.
At this point, he had about 5,200 chakra points left.
Qingming used half of it to cast the Reflection Technique and then began practicing the Shadow Clone Technique with the remaining chakra.
Each time he practiced, he only used about 100 chakra points to gain 1 proficiency point.
After several attempts, his chakra dropped below 2,000 points, making it impossible to continue practicing the Shadow Clone Technique.
So, Qingming activated the Chakra Refining Technique.
Before long, his chakra had recovered to over 2,000 points again.
At that point, Qingming resumed practicing the Shadow Clone Technique.
In this way, he kept his chakra levels hovering around 2,000 points while steadily increasing his proficiency in the Shadow Clone Technique.
Another update will be posted later tonight.
