Peacock Marvelous Method No. 17

  Early in the morning, a thin mist covered the entire space with a light veil. The training ground was quiet, and the gentle breeze rustled the leaves of the trees, carrying the clear and crisp sounds that drifted away with the wind.

  Softly... a pair of footsteps approached, and two figures slowly appeared at the edge of the training ground.

  Looking at the empty training ground, Ning let out a inexplicable sigh. The current Konoha is really too lax. Although he didn't know about the situation in other villages, they would be stronger than Konoha in any case. The relaxed atmosphere wasn't just spreading among the genin, even the jounin were becoming lazy. If things continued like this, Konoha's situation was worrying. Would they only awaken after suffering harm?

  "Are all of you jonin training so sloppily?" The words reached the tip of his tongue, but Neji swallowed them again. These things had nothing to do with him. Looking at Hinata beside him, Neji walked to the center of the training grounds.

  Hong said faintly, "This secret technique is called the Peacock Marvelous Technique. I'll use it once to show you, and then explain it to you." His hands formed a few simple seals in front of his chest, and Ning deliberately slowed down his speed, allowing Hong to see clearly.

  Akane watched as Neji's movements caused a surge of powerful chakra to erupt from his body, and with a loud boom, Akane's eyes widened in amazement at the unbelievable sight before her. A visible purple-red chakra appeared around Neji's body, enveloping him completely, and behind him, it began to take shape, forming strands that resembled peacock feathers.

  Suddenly a tail feather fluttered up, suddenly grew longer, and rushed towards the wooden stake in front of Ning Ci. A loud "crack" sound came, and the thick wooden stake was torn apart by the tail feather's attack.

  "The Peacock Mystic Method is to use chakra to condense into shapes, protect oneself and attack the enemy. As for the shape, it can be changed at will. This is a shape created by the predecessors who invented this mystic method. The defensive power and attacking power are both very strong. However, the most critical condition for cultivating this mystic method is that 'star'. Without undergoing transformation through the star, using chakra to form shapes for attack or defense is extremely difficult."

  That's why he said that, also because Neji recalled the great war in the Valley of the End between Naruto and Sasuke, at which time Naruto had already grown one tail and his chakra could attack, with extremely astonishing power. Besides Gaara's Palm Jutsu, Neji couldn't remember anyone else whose chakra could be formed into shapes for use.

  Watching Ningci use the Peacock Method, Hong was extremely surprised. Such a chakra used for solo attacks, Hong had never seen before. Ninjas using chakra were always expressed in ninjutsu or taijutsu, and it was rare to see someone like Ningci who could use chakra independently like this.

  Ning Ci held onto Hong, softly explaining the intricacies of the Peacock's Mystical Method, letting Hong practice alone on one side. Ning Ci walked to a corner, quietly contemplating for a moment, his hands swiftly forming seals, and the Peacock's Mystical Method reappeared once more.

  However, at this time, the shape of Neji's chakra behind him was no longer a peacock tail feather. Nine purple-red vine-like long chakras danced in the air, but they would never collide with each other.

  "Amethyst Pupil, open!" Ning Ci gazed intently at the giant tree dozens of meters ahead, as the chakra's turmoil on his body stirred up waves of clear wind.

  Akane felt the massive chakra flowing through Nii's body and looked over, gazing at the nine tail-like chakras dancing behind him. He couldn't help but feel a sense of awe, thinking that someone who could modify a secret technique to this extent was absolutely a genius. He eagerly anticipated Nii's next move.

  "Eight Trigrams, 128 Palms." Ning's body suddenly sprouted nine tails that swiftly flew out, instantly arriving in front of the giant tree.

  "Two palms, four palms, sixteen palms..." Several chakras seemed to have different tasks, quickly moving on the surface of the giant tree. The giant tree swayed back and forth, and the movement of the chakras could no longer be seen with the naked eye, only feeling that in front of the giant tree, layer upon layer of chakra vines...

  Bang, Nine-Tails' chakra tail returned behind Ningci's body,

  Hong looked at the giant tree with 128 empty holes on it, which coincidentally formed the 128 acupoints in the human body. He couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and suddenly, he thought of the Bagua Palm that was secretly passed down through the Daya family. Ning Ci could actually use Chakra to replace physical acupointing... This was just too astonishing!

  Ning walked up to the giant tree, looked at the 128 holes, shook his head, and felt very dissatisfied. Although the holes were distributed very accurately, the control of the force was still far from perfect. The depth of the holes varied, and it seemed that he needed more practice.

  This is also one of the reasons why Ningci changed the Peacock Mystery Skill, using Chakra Dian Xue is just like the Empty Space Pointing Hole in Chinese Kung Fu, but it's not easy to master.

  The nine Chakra tails behind him suddenly changed, condensed into five, and the five Chakra tails danced rapidly, suddenly rushing out in different directions. After approaching the trees chosen by Ningci, some of their tips transformed into claws, while others turned into sharp knife-like points. Bang, boom...

  Ning Ci looked at the effect, and the giant tree that was caught by the claws had a large piece missing from its trunk. The result of the sharp Chakra was a series of huge holes.

  The five Chakra tails, now restored to their original state, appeared behind Jinbao and quickly transformed into sharp points at the tip of each tail, drilling towards the ground.

  Bang, in the distance around a giant tree, five Chakra tails burst out of the ground, five long spears surrounded the giant tree and stabbed down, boom... , five huge holes appeared on the trunk, already unable to support the weight of the entire tree, the giant tree crashed to the ground.

  Ning nodded in satisfaction and walked back to the training grounds, preparing to check on Hong's progress. However, he saw that Hong was staring at him with a shocked expression, not having made any progress in his cultivation.

  "What's going on, why haven't you started yet?" Ning Ci frowned and asked.

  "Ah," Hong heard Ning's words and woke up, nodding slightly with some embarrassment, "I know." But in his heart, he was still thinking about the power of Ning's Peacock Mystery Skill, whether it was strength or accuracy, concealment, in Hong's view, Ning's use of the Peacock Mystery Skill had reached a certain level, and his interest in this secret skill grew even stronger.

  No longer minding the awkward feeling of being taught by a child like Ning Ci, he humbly sought guidance.

  Ning Ji was also very patient, carefully explaining, until the training ground appeared the shadow of ninja training, the two left here. This secret technique is better not to be seen by others, especially now Ning Ji as the successor of the famous martial arts school Ri Xiang Yi Jia, possessing this secret method, it's simply a crime to have such a treasure.
