"You're so mean, stealing shit from a poor dog's mouth!" Fingel said irritably as he closed his laptop.
But he couldn't do anything to Gu Ran, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became!
……
Late at night, after Gu Ran fell into a deep sleep, she quickly drifted off to sleep.
In his dream, he was fully conscious.
Soon, he saw the system options.
[Do you wish to enter the dream world of Mount Myōboku?]
"Yes."
With a thought, Gu Ran felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, and then the next second, she found herself in a fantastical place.
There was no sun in the sky, but it was daytime.
There are mountains, water, and waterfalls all around.
There are also trees, flowers, and grass.
But there were no animals.
There were no toad-spirited beasts or toad immortals as one might imagine.
Gu Ran was free to move around here. He wandered around for a while, then jumped to the top of the waterfall. Looking down from there, he saw a vast valley.
[This is a scene modeled after Mount Myōboku. Here, the host can practice the ninjutsu they have learned and demonstrate taijutsu techniques.]
[It can also train and enhance the host's mental energy, helping to increase the host's precision in controlling chakra.]
"Mental energy?"
Gu Ran fell into deep thought.
Generally speaking, chakra in the human body is obtained by fusing spiritual energy and physical energy into physical strength, and then converting that physical strength into chakra.
But Gu Ran's chakra, like the Nine-Tails' power, resides directly within his body.
The advantage of this is that it reduces the steps involved in chakra conversion, eliminates the need to create chakra oneself, and avoids being limited by one's own physical strength.
The downside is that control is reduced.
Especially when his chakra suddenly increases, his control over chakra will decrease by a level.
Previously, he had improved his body control through physical exercise.
Now, the dreamscape of Mount Myoboku provides a place to cultivate spiritual energy.
[In addition, the host can also explore how to enter Sage Mode in the dream world of Mount Myōboku. If the attempt to enter Sage Mode fails here, the host will not turn into a frog or be petrified.]
The moment the thought crossed his mind, the method for Immortal Mode was immediately transmitted into Gu Ran's mind.
Sage Mode is the process of converting the chakra within the body into Sage Chakra.
Sage Chakra can dramatically enhance the power of released ninjutsu.
However, Sage Mode has two obvious drawbacks. One is that it has a casting animation, requiring time to gather natural energy and convert chakra.
The second drawback is that it doesn't last long.
For Gu Ran, the chakra within his body is an external cheat code; when converting it, he still needs extremely strong chakra control.
"However, mastering Sage Mode can greatly increase my combat power, so overall it's a good thing."
With that thought in mind, Gu Ran immediately began his dream cultivation.
He used the Shadow Clone Technique to create two shadow clones: one to sense the power of nature, and the other to practice ninjutsu.
The Shadow Clone Technique allows you to feed back the learned experience to your original body.
As for his true form, he went to meditate under the waterfall.
The system message stated that only by meditating in this place on Mount Myōboku could one train their spiritual power.
Even though it was a dream, the moment Gu Ran stepped into the waterfall, she felt a sudden chill run through her body for no apparent reason.
The icy water washed over his body, making him want to back away.
"Calm down, this is a dream, a hallucination, it's all an illusion!"
Gu Ran silently cheered himself up, then endured the cold and sat cross-legged under the waterfall.
The waterfall water isn't always cold; it fluctuates in temperature, and sometimes it even seems to carry an electric current, giving Gu Ran a tingling sensation.
Sometimes, it would give him the illusion of drowning, making him feel like he was underwater and unable to breathe.
Chapter 98 The Lonely Chu Zihang
The next day, six in the morning.
Gu Ran's phone started vibrating; it was the alarm he had set himself.
He slowly opened his eyes and realized that he felt tired from staying up all night.
“Training at Mount Myoboku has boosted my mental energy, but it hasn’t eliminated my physical fatigue. In other words, I still need sleep…”
Beneath the waterfall at Mount Myoboku, all the negative sensations were meant to strengthen his willpower, so they didn't induce a deep sleep.
"However, what would happen if I entered the dream world of Mount Myōboku, used shadow clones to train, and then slept inside myself?"
Thinking about this, Gu Ran felt a surge of excitement and decided to try again tonight!
Outside, it was just beginning to get light.
Gu Ran had no intention of going back to sleep.
After he got up and washed up, he saw that his roommate Qilan was still fast asleep and snoring.
Gu Ran remembered that Qi Lan was also an A-level.
Since he was caught off guard, it would seem a bit unreasonable not to launch a surprise attack at night.
So, Gu Ran immediately grabbed a piece of paper, infused it with chakra, and once the paper became thin and sharp, he quickly slashed it across Qi Lan's arm.
Gu Ran was already very experienced, so the wound was very shallow.
However, Qi Lan still felt pain. He opened his eyes groggily and saw Gu Ran by the bedside.
Qi Lan's arm was only scratched, and Gu Ran let a little blood seep out before quickly wiping it away with a tissue. Then, he filled his right hand with chakra and used the Palm Healing Technique to stroke Qi Lan's arm.
The Palm Healing Technique healed Qi Lan's wound in less than a second.
Taking this opportunity, Gu Ran said to Qi Lan, "There was a mosquito. When I saw it, I couldn't help but swat it at you. I'm sorry for waking you up!"
As he spoke, he took out a tissue with some bloodstains on it, which looked like blood squeezed out of the mosquito's belly after swatting it dead.
"It's nothing, thank you for swatting the mosquitoes for me..."
Qi Lan had a vague feeling that something was wrong, because mosquito bites don't usually hurt.
However, he looked at his arm and saw no unusual wounds, so he didn't care and didn't suspect Gu Ran.
"I set my alarm for seven o'clock, I'm going to sleep a little longer..." He planned to take another nap.
"Would you like me to bring you breakfast?"
"Okay... thank you..."
A little while later, Qilan started snoring again.
Without wasting any time, Gu Ran immediately handed over the collected blood samples to the system.
[Qilan blood sample, grade A, this sample cannot be collected again]
[Rewards are being processed, please wait...]
[Reward: Learn A-rank ninjutsu: Chakra Scalpel]
[Progress in unlocking 2-tomoe Sharingan: 4/6]
I'm getting closer and closer to getting the Sharingan to the second tomoe!
Chakra Scalpel is a type of medical ninjutsu that allows one to concentrate chakra in their hand and transform it into an extremely sharp blade, similar to a scalpel. It can be used not only as a scalpel but also as a means of attack.
Moreover, this ninjutsu is easier to cut and more concealed than paper shuriken, and it is more convenient to draw blood!
Gu Ran changed into her workout clothes and running shoes with satisfaction, ready to go out for a run.
He planned to familiarize himself with the campus environment in the morning.
Although the campus is called the hilltop campus, it is actually built on the mountainside, and the architectural style of the campus is mainly European medieval style.
The campus has all the necessary facilities, and student accommodation includes both regular dormitories and villas.
Gu Ran saw Caesar by the pool in a Gothic villa area.
Caesar got up early and exercised in the pool next door, with a secretary by his side holding a towel and a phone, attending to him.
No wonder he's a rich young master; he even needs someone to serve him when he swims.
Gu Ran glanced at it and then stopped paying attention. He just thought to himself that if Lu Mingfei were here, he would definitely complain that the remnants of feudal landlords had not been completely eradicated.
He then ran across Odin Square, past Valhalla, and then past the church and library, looking at all the major buildings on campus.
The lawn that was ruined yesterday because of 'Freedom Day' has not been repaired yet, and many places are still full of potholes.
But even in the quiet morning, Gu Ran still felt a sense of peace and solemnity on campus.
When he arrived at the playground, he heard people playing basketball.
That's Chu Zihang.
He was alone on the basketball court, shooting and rebounding his own shots, and occasionally he would also do layups and dunks.
However, he was all alone in the huge stadium, and he always seemed lonely.
Gu Ran watched for a while, then took the initiative to walk up to him: "Hey, senior, can I join you for some fun?"
Chu Zihang had just completed a throw-in when the ball went in and rolled to his feet.
He picked up the basketball, stared at Gu Ran, and asked, "Don't you find it boring?"
"Bored?" Gu Ran stared at his eternally golden eyes, momentarily stunned. "Only a person would be bored, right?"
