章節 28: Chap 28 - Senjutsu Training. (2)
Ryuuji opened his eyes once more, with the same cobalt-colored checkered pattern that looked like scales and with his pupils transformed into vertical slits.
" Kurowani...I can maintain Sage Mode for three minutes before losing control of natural energy. "
The little crocodile closed his eyes and nodded.
" That's quite an achievement, Ryuuji-sama. Most people need years to get to the level you have. As far as I know, not even the Sage of the Six Paths has reached your current level so quickly. "
Ryuuji let out a snort at the little crocodile.
" You want to compare me to that old stalker? I won't need more than a week to fully master Natural Energy. "
" Hehehe, I hope so, Ryuuji-sama. You know how those damn frogs like to brag about teaching Senjutsu to the Sage of the Six Paths? What I want most is for you to outrun that guy. "
" Hum, you baggy crocodile, I'm already stronger than that old man! You might as well tell the frogs that you already have the strongest summoner in history. "
Kurowani let out a funny little snort.
" We're not a species that usually speaks without proving it with deeds, Ryuuji-sama. If you want me to brag about having the strongest summoner, you need to prove to the world that you're stronger than the Sage of the Six Paths. "
" Rest assured. In heaven above and earth below, I'm the most honored. Unlike the Sage of the Six Paths, I'll almost permanently dispel the suffering that surrounds this world. The time to prove it will come in the near future. You just need to sit and watch, Kurowani.
Now, let's get back to training. I only have three more hours available today because I promised I would put a little girl to sleep today. "
" I'll be waiting for that day, Ryuuji-sama. "
After saying those words, Kurowani waved his little reptilian hand for Ryuuji to follow him.
It didn't take long for the two to arrive at a part of the submerged island where a literal river of magma was.
" I won't even ask why you have a river of magma in your house, Kurowani. "
" Hm, this river didn't exist a few hundred years ago. It was created by a visitor to our clan. Nowadays, we use it to help with Senjutsu training. "
Kurowani pointed to the center of the river.
" You have learned to control the natural energy within your body, now you'll need to learn to feel and absorb natural energy without the help of the special mud pool.
For this, you'll follow the same training as our pack:
Learn to control your body to the extreme. When you fully master the involuntary movements of your body and manage to enter a near-death state, you'll become one with nature, being able to absorb natural energy even as you move. "
" Okay, but what does this river of lava have to do with this training? "
" It's very simple. The first step in learning to control your body is to manipulate small biological processes in your body responsible for controlling temperature.
During the first phase of training, while the magma continually heats your body, you need to lower the temperature by controlling the functioning of your sweat glands. "
Ryuuji nodded at Kurowani's words and sat on the edge of the magma river, letting the heat raise his body temperature.
He sure as hell wouldn't feel excessive heat coming into contact with magma.
In fact, your body temperature could probably exceed the sun's core temperature before Ryuuji unintentionally lets a drop of sweat trickle down his forehead.
It's not like Ryuuji's body needs to control its internal temperature like humans do, but Ryuuji himself needed to learn to do this voluntarily because that was the first step of training, according to Kurowani's words.
…
Ryuuji has always boasted of having a high level of body control, being able to recreate bizarre techniques like Marine Six-Styles.
If his Senjutsu training was the same as the toads', he would surely have mastered the step of standing still in just a few minutes.
Fortunately, Kurowani wasn't a frog and made things nearly impossible for Ryuuji.
It had been almost three hours and Ryuuji still hadn't managed to generate a single drop of sweat.
Opening his eyes, Ryuuji looked at Kurowani, who was motionless as he controlled his body temperature with ridiculous ease.
" So…you're not going to give me any hints? "
" Hehe, Ryuuji-sama. I'd like to help you, but I'm a crocodile and you're a human, you know? I warned you that our Sage Mode was impossible to fully master.
None of our summoners can learn to absorb natural energy and they had to carry a container with some of the special mud with them to enter Sage Mode during combat. "
Ryuuji let out a huff and stood up.
" Don't worry. I'll go home now and keep trying. As soon as I get some results, I'll come back to continue the training. Don't count on me giving up, Kurowani, because that's not going to happen. "
" Hehe, I'll be waiting, Ryuuji-sama. "
…
After putting Konan to sleep, Ryuuji decided to take a quick shower and meanwhile, the red-haired boy thought about Kurowani's words.
As a cold-blooded crocodile, Kurowani learned to regulate his body's functions very easily, being able to use an external heat source to keep his body warm and even using that heat source as a source of energy to maintain himself long periods without food.
Unfortunately for the red-haired boy, he wasn't a crocodile.
Fortunately, his race was basically omnipotent under the radiation of a star. All Ryuuji needed to do was find a way to control his body with the weapons that were available to him.
While thinking about possible ways to increase his body control, Ryuuji arrived in the master bedroom, which he now shares with his mother.
Shifting his view to the bed, Ryuuji swallowed hard.
" Ryu-uuu-jii…you took a long time to come to me, you know? I even thought that you would not feast your eyes on the sight I have prepared for you. "
Ryuuji simply stood there, watching the way his mother was dressed.
The red-haired MILF was wearing a beautiful red lingerie set.
She was wearing red pantyhose that climbed up her smooth legs, with a garter belt that held them together with a thong panties, which left nothing to Ryuuji's imagination.
What caught Ryuuji's attention the most was the transparent veil that covered Benihime's face and the jewelry that the woman placed on her body.
" Fufufu~ I see you liked Ryuuji. "
Ryuuji gulped and lightly nodded his head.
" I loved it, Mom. But tell me, are we celebrating something? "
" Isn't it clear, Ryuu-kun? Today will be our special wedding ceremony. Now, stop looking and come here. "
Ryuuji walked slowly towards his mother, who crawled on the bed until her face was close to his already stiff member. The woman ripped off the towel covering Ryuuji's private parts and licked her lips.
" Today we will not sleep, Ryuu-kun. "
" I couldn't agree more, Mom. "
…
After guiding the girls' training for another day, Ryuuji prepared a large tub of boiling water.
The redhead levitated until he was on top of the boiling water and directed all his perceptive powers into his body.
He easily identified the sweat glands all over his body and began to stimulate them with the Yang Energy his body was constantly generating.
The answer that Ryuuji found to achieve the same feat as Kurowani was to use his vast Yang Energy to stimulate certain parts of the body at his whim, trying to do what his brain unconsciously does.
Ryuuji wanted to use Yang Energy to replace the electrical and magnetic impulses that the brain uses, and in that way control parts of his body that should be uncontrollable.
If the Akimichi Clan can multiply their body size by using Yang Release, then Ryuuji can improve his level of body control by utilizing pure Yang Energy.
What Ryuuji needed to find out was how to do such a thing.
…
Ryuuji's results were satisfactory.
With just a few hours of trying, Ryuuji was able to manipulate the microscopic parts of his body responsible for producing sweat.
Of course, that still wasn't enough to control his body temperature, but he was satisfied with this small advance.
What Ryuuji needed to do now was generate enough sweat so that his body temperature could steadily drop when that sweat evaporates.
…
As the hours passed, Ryuuji gradually controlled his body temperature as he became more and more proficient at controlling his sweat glands, using less Yang Energy to do so.
With his innate ability to control his body and God-given divine talent, it didn't take long for Ryuuji to set his body temperature to 37 degrees Celsius.
…
When Ryuuji finally felt that he could comfortably control his body's sweat production using only a minimal amount of Yang Energy, he decided to go back to Kurowani.
Seeing the surprised face of the small bipedal crocodile, Ryuuji smiled a little smugly.
" I told you I would make it. "
Kurowani put the surprise aside and smiled playfully.
" I'm always amazed at your talent, Ryuuji-sama. I could say the next steps are going to be more difficult, but I think the difficulty of the training doesn't mean anything to you. "
" Actually, now that I know that the next phases of training will be more difficult, I'm even more excited. "
" Hehehe, why am I not surprised? Come on, follow me again. "
Kurowani took Ryuuji to the magma river again and climbed onto a rock to equalize the height between the two.
" The next step of training is to repeat the first step, while trying to control your heartbeat. You need to control the flow of blood until you can slow down the speed at which your blood flows through your veins, as well as increase the speed if you wish. "
Ryuuji didn't wait any longer and moved to the edge of the magma river, where the temperature was high enough to make his body temperature rise.
After a few minutes, Ryuuji was able to control his body temperature to 38 degree Celsius and began to try to control his heartbeat, also using Yang Energy and his innate connection with the physical body.

FeartoFallingApart Hey guys.
Today was truly one hell of a day. A coworker was absent and it just left me totally overwhelmed.
I arrived at work at 7:00 AM and couldn't leave until 22:00 PM. I'm sure I'll be paid well for it, but my mind is just totally overworked.
I hope today's chapter isn't too bad because of that.
Anyway...
Thank you to everyone who follows the story day after day. You guys motivate me to keep writing even with a shitty routine and that's gold for me!
Ps: We managed to hit the one million reads mark and that sure makes me very happy! I luv every one of you!
Ps2: For the curious: I work in the logistics area for one of the biggest pharmaceutical store chains in my country and this is simply too tiring, but I learned to deal with it over time. At least I'm paid well to do it.
