Chapter 157: Spatiotemporal Sense

"Orochimaru?"

"Danzo-sama!"

At first, Danzo appeared disoriented. But as he surveyed his current state, his expression darkened.

"Edo Tensei!"

Danzo had witnessed Tobirama Senju use this technique before and recognized it instantly.

"Heh heh..."

Orochimaru chuckled softly in response.

Danzo suppressed his anger, gritting his teeth. "Orochimaru, you're bold!"

Danzo's body, now resurrected through Edo Tensei, resembled a cracked porcelain doll pieced back together, his form riddled with fissures. Despite appearances, he was far from fragile.

In this state, Danzo was invulnerable to all but Yin-Yang Release and specific sealing techniques. His body could regenerate no matter how much damage it sustained, and he had access to limitless chakra. Theoretically, he could surpass the power he held in life.

However, theory often diverges from reality.

Orochimaru's current skill level limited Danzo to less than 30% of his original strength. Though still formidable, he was a shadow of his former self.

Why, then, had Orochimaru revived Danzo?

The reasons were simple: first, to further test the Edo Tensei technique; and second, to extract information about Baishi.

Despite having collaborated with Danzo in the past, Orochimaru had never lost his interest in Baishi. The more he studied Baishi's blood and cells, the stronger his obsession grew.

Danzo, meanwhile, harbored a deep-seated grudge against Baishi. If Orochimaru wanted to deal with Baishi, Danzo was more than willing to share what he knew.

Thus, the two began an "amiable" exchange of information.

Meanwhile, Baishi was immersed in refining the sealing technique on his body, aiming to further enhance its efficiency in extracting Kurama's chakra.

Time passed swiftly, and three months later...

Morning

Land of Crafts

Path to the Hidden Craftsmen Village

Baishi strolled leisurely down the road, taking in the picturesque scenery while guiding his body's evolution.

Suddenly, he halted mid-step, his gaze momentarily unfocused. A hint of joy crossed his face as he murmured, "Finally, it's time for the breakthrough."

Without hesitation, Baishi activated the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Hundreds of kilometers away, in a hidden underground chamber, Baishi materialized.

After ensuring the area was secure, he sat cross-legged and began siphoning Kurama's chakra at full capacity. At the same time, he halted the progress of all other enhancements, funneling all available energy into advancing his Spatial Perception Enhancement.

An hour later, Baishi opened his eyes, a dazed look in his gaze.

Moments passed before he regained focus. He muttered, "So, this is spatiotemporal sense? How fascinating!"

"System, show my current status!"

The familiar translucent panel appeared before him:

Baishi observed that Spatial Perception Enhancement had been replaced by Spatiotemporal Sense.

Like the evolution of Enhanced Senses into various new capabilities, Spatiotemporal Sense represented a significant leap.

This newfound ability allowed Baishi to perceive spatial fluctuations with unparalleled clarity. No spatial or temporal techniques, nor any related seals, could escape his notice.

Most crucially, just as Baishi had predicted, his advancement now enabled him to sense Flying Thunder God markings even within alternate dimensions.

For instance, Baishi could now clearly detect the marker he had left on the Dream Tapir. Teleporting to it was now entirely feasible.

For now, though, he wasn't in a hurry to act on this.

Closing the system panel, Baishi shifted his focus to his Basic Attributes.

The enhancements to his sealing technique had noticeably improved his efficiency in drawing chakra from Kurama, leading to accelerated growth in his attributes.

Previously, over three months, his Strength, Agility, and Constitution had increased by around 11–12 points each, while Intelligence had risen by 15.

Now, each attribute had gained an additional 1–2 points over the same time frame, even though the improved seal had only been in place for half that period.

It was clear that the refined seal had ushered in a new phase of rapid growth for Baishi.

The benefits extended beyond his attributes. All his enhanced abilities, including Regeneration, Psychic Fortification, and Energy Absorption, had advanced faster than expected.

Overall, the refined seal had significantly impacted Baishi's growth, though it also validated his earlier concerns.

The bottleneck in his progress had shifted: it was no longer the seal's efficiency in extracting chakra but rather Kurama's ability to replenish it.

At this point, the seal was operating at its limit, and further improvements would yield diminishing returns.

If Baishi wanted to accelerate his growth further, his only options were to capture more Tailed Beasts or expand the range of energies his Energy Absorption could process.

Pondering this, Baishi focused his mind and locked onto the Flying Thunder God marker on the Dream Tapir. After ensuring everything was ready, he activated the technique.

In an instant, Baishi felt as if he had passed through a thin membrane, emerging in an unfamiliar space.

A deep, resonant bellow echoed through the air.

Sensing danger, Baishi wasted no time, conjuring his chakra cloak.

Slice!

A sharp wind blade struck him, sending ripples across his pale blue chakra cloak.

Baishi glanced upward and immediately spotted the familiar form of the Dream Tapir. A faint smile appeared on his face.
