With the breathing technique issue sorted out, I had to revise my training arrangements, since only my main body could handle the strain of drawing in natural energy, I had to leave everything else to my clones. Five clones train in the five elements, two on Yin and Yang, two on seals, and one on taijustu.
Some might ask, why am I fixated on yin and yang? The answer is simple actually. With Yin, I can master all yin-related techniques. Yin Release uses spiritual energy to control imagination, creating the form out of nothingness, why yang release gives the imaginary creation form. Hagoromo combined Yin and Yang into Yin–Yang Release, notably allowing him to create the nine-tailed beasts.
My main reason though is the creation of a domain unique to only me, similar to the domain expansion from Jujutsu Kaisen. The Uchiha is one of the clans that major in Yin release, which gives them increased illusion prowess.
They could even deceive reality with their Izanagi, not to mention Amaterasu, mixing the yin and fire to create the hottest flame.
Itachi could use his Sharingan to create a space where 72 hours equals 1 second. Obito could open his Kamui dimension due to his Sharingan. My point? Yin release is hax even if it wasn't explored in the anime.
Anyways, with my mindscape created, I decided to create a mind palace to store all my memories from both my last life and this life. You never can tell when one motherf***er manages to get into my head and sees what he's not meant to see. I know my yin release may be the strongest after some people but one can never be too careful.
I made sure to reinforce the palace with enough mental strength. although I left my mindscape accessible.
The Yang release will help in increased vitality alongside natural energy. I don't know if I'll reach the level of Hagoromo to create form out of nothing but I'm sure I could use the Yin Yang release to create something akin to a dimension or a separate plane of existence where I can create laws governing it.
With my clones training, I threw my whole being into breathing. I wanted to be able to reach the 'Total concentration constant' before I start creating a style and form.
It took a while before I could breathe uninterrupted by the pain in my lungs, exactly a month. With this training, I discovered that the clone training in the Yang release was progressing faster than the rest.
This confirmed my theory that natural energy boosts Yang chakra in the body, and I noticed the increased vitality in my cells. I could see my body heal from any injury at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Next was my Yin release. I managed to explore it to the point of creating a mindscape or sea of consciousness as I would like to call it. I am also able to change the landscape as I see fit.
I was God in my mindscape. I tried to bring the world in my mind to reality and it worked, only it was exceedingly difficult to maintain. I still need more practice.
The clones creating seals also made progress. I was finally able to create a portable storage ring. The clones had to draw the algorithm needed to perform this seal on a scroll and then placed the ring in the eye of the seal, and finally, used it to activate the seal.
It was like cutting out space and putting it into a book and then converting the outer workings of the book into a ring. It was a complicated procedure, one that I can't be bothered to explain
Another seal created, was created with this idea of folding space was a teleportation seal. Not like the Flying Thunder God but like a gate using the Einstein-Rosen Bridge theory.
I draw a seal on a given area and draw a similar seal on another area, both will have a send and receive function In which only I can use. The teleportation was instantaneous, with no lag or time lost during the movement.
It was a good seal for transportation but that was all. With this seal I also got an idea of how the summoning technique seal can be created, and with that idea, I could create my version of the FTG seal.
My other clones focused on elemental transformation also made progress, though it was minuscule except for the lightning Transformation. I could already use the lightning to sense the magnetic field around me to a certain extent.
The earth Element was also progressing fairly well. With my eyes closed, I can sense the area around me as far as it's in contact with the ground. I could also extend my chakra deeper into the ground and control the gravity around five meters from all directions.
The rest of my clones were making progress but I didn't know how to go about them. Water was easily understandable but difficult to practice. It had to do with the flow which I grasped.
As far as my chakra is in the water I could also control the said amount of liquid and sense anything it makes contact with, I could make it as sharp as possible and also make it form a wall or dome.
I could also glide on the water, it was fun but that's that about it. I feel that with more practice, I could change its forms like making it into mist or something.
The same can be said for air. It is a versatile element and free from restraints. It can be used to form a nice breeze and can also be used to form a hurricane.
I had an easy time coming to grasp its fundamental aspect due to my knowledge of the element. In Avatar, air benders were pacifists, they hated violence but that didn't mean they were weak.
I took inspiration from Aang's air bubble to create a technique in which I can suck out the air from an area and anyone inside that space will be suffocated. A deadly but effective technique. Not sure I'll be using it anytime soon though.
With the fire element, there's nothing to be said about it. I just used the progress I had in the air training to train the fire element. Since fire is the only element that is not natural, that is it's not around, it has to come from within, I continued spamming fire techniques mixed with a little oxygen in my lungs before expelling it.
Ialso followed Iroh's teaching and always took deep breaths in the afternoons to make sure I'm in tune with the heat of the sun to strengthen my fire. And that's all about it.
For my Taijutsu, I copied all the martial art techniques I could think of starting from karate, taekwondo, kickboxing, and many more but the ones that I focused on mainly were karate mixed with taekwondo.
When all these elements are mastered, I plan to find their respective natural energy. Don't get me wrong, I just thought,
These are the basic building blocks of all worlds, and then comes other elements like the mixtures of the basic five with Yin and Yang. After those, are the major elements like space, time, life, and death.
With Yin release, I can even get access to space and time techniques. With full mastery of yin and yang, I could access life and death techniques with more ease.
If this should also apply to this world, I could find a way to draw these energies and mix them with their respective chakra natures and evolve them.
If this happens I could become the first human to achieve godhood in this world not counting Kaguya and Hagoromo/Hamura. She is an alien and the brothers are half alien. As far as I am concerned I am or will be the first resident human to reach the level of the Otsûtsuki.
