Chapter 241: Three Months Later

Time flies, and three months passed in the blink of an eye.

That afternoon.

Deep in the ocean.

On a secluded island.

Baishi suddenly opened his eyes. A glimmer of light flashed in his pupils, and the corners of his mouth curled into a broad grin.

"Hahahaha~~~"

A hearty, uninhibited laugh burst from his lips, expressing his sheer excitement.

After a long moment, he gradually restrained his laughter and muttered:

"System, display my status!"

As soon as he spoke, the familiar semi-transparent panel appeared before his eyes:

[Current Status Effects]

(None)

---

Compared to three months ago, his status panel had undergone massive improvements, with numerous attributes showing significant gains.

But the first thing that caught his eye was [Energy Absorption].

And with good reason—this was the very cause of his excitement.

After three months of dedicated progress, his [Energy Absorption] had finally advanced to Level IV.

As a result, his energy absorption efficiency had undergone a massive leap.

Eager to test this improvement, Baishi closed his eyes and activated [Energy Absorption] at full power, drawing in the surrounding natural energy.

In mere moments, his aura transformed—a silver sage-like marking appeared on his face, signaling that he had entered Sage Mode.

Baishi opened his eyes, assessing the changes in his body.

Confirming that his entire chakra pool had been converted into Senjutsu Chakra, he then calculated the time it took.

"Two and a half minutes!"

That was his conclusion.

This speed, while still not as instantaneous as Hashirama's, was far superior to Jiraiya's.

And more importantly—it would only get faster as [Energy Absorption] continued to evolve.

In terms of practical application, this wasn't a problem either.

After all, he had the 'Gathering Array' in his spatial ring.

With a thought, Baishi dispersed the natural energy within his body.

He then opened his spatial ring, took a step inside, and activated the Gathering Array.

One second… two seconds… three seconds…

Fifteen seconds later, he stepped out—fully re-entering Sage Mode.

Clearly, with the assistance of the Gathering Array, he could achieve Sage Mode in just fifteen seconds.

And if he absorbed the energy externally from the ring, he estimated that it wouldn't take more than thirty seconds.

Considering his current combat strength, no one could defeat him within thirty seconds—so from this moment on, Sage Mode had officially become his standard combat form.

After concluding his test of [Energy Absorption], Baishi shifted his focus to the rest of his status panel.

It was evident that both his basic attributes and special enhancements had progressed at an accelerated rate.

There were two main reasons for this:

1. He had gained extensive human physiology knowledge from Sasori, allowing him to optimize his abilities further.

2. He had learned the mental stimulation method from the Black Shadow Entity, drastically boosting his intelligence and mental resilience.

Originally, he had only linked twelve individuals to his mental network.

But as his [Intelligence] and [Mental Fortress] improved, he gradually increased the number.

Now—he was constantly linked to thirty people, experiencing thirty different emotional stimulations at all times.

If it weren't for his immense mental strength and [Mental Fortress], any other person would have gone insane.

Thanks to these factors—

His overall evolution speed had increased by another 40% compared to the past, leading to his unexpectedly rapid progress.

After briefly glancing over his Strength, Intelligence, Constitution, and Agility, Baishi focused on his [Super Vision: Energy Vision].

After three months, its progress had reached 77.5%, allowing him to observe energy fluctuations at an even deeper level.

And now—his next goal was clear.

"It's time to unlock the energy pathways in my chakra network."

If successful, his explosive power would undergo a qualitative transformation.

But this process was incredibly dangerous.

Once started, it couldn't be easily stopped.

Therefore, he needed to be fully prepared before attempting it.

"Perhaps I should study the Eight Gates technique as a reference..."

The thought crossed his mind.

But soon, he dismissed it.

After all—the best expert on Eight Gates was Might Guy.

And considering that Guy nearly kicked Madara into the afterlife, Baishi wasn't keen on provoking him unless absolutely necessary.

Shaking his head, he temporarily set that idea aside.

Instead, he shifted his focus to [Mental Fortress].

Thanks to the mental stimulation from the network, its progress had skyrocketed.

Even though Baishi had been deliberately balancing his abilities, this enhancement still advanced faster than the others.

In just three months, it had reached 95.5%—on the verge of upgrading to Level IV.

And once [Mental Fortress] reached Level IV—

His mental endurance would vastly improve, allowing him to link even more individuals—which would, in turn, accelerate his intelligence and overall evolution speed even further.

For the past three months, this cycle had been the key to his rapid progress.

After collecting his thoughts, Baishi turned to [Mind's Eye]—

Unlike the others, its growth was noticeably slower, as he hadn't dedicated much attention to it.

However—his [Absolute Adaptation] and [Iron Body] had both broken past Level II, advancing well into Level III.

As a result—his survivability had increased significantly, with his resistance to extreme environments and overall durability reaching new heights.
