Chapter 167 - Chapter 167 Accidentally Becoming Immortal

The Amegakure examiner immediately appeared, wanting to stop Uchiha Ling from delivering the finishing blow, but Ling had already turned and left, making the examiner, who thought he had predicted Ling's movements, particularly awkward.

Ling looked back at the examiner with disdain. It was well-known that she, Uchiha Ling, was beautiful and kind-hearted, yet she was misunderstood as an evildoer. This was simply a slander against her.

Danzo Shimura looked at the arrogant Uchiha Ling, merely snorting with a cold expression. He felt that this brat's arrogance was damaging to Konoha's positive image.

Indeed, Danzo still considered himself a Konoha Ninja, or rather, saw himself as Konoha's future Hokage. However, he forgot that it was absurd for a Hawk Faction member like him to find Ling arrogant.

Next was Kakashi's match against the Iwagakure Jonin. The two fought a beautiful and prolonged battle, satisfying the Daimyo.

However, Kakashi was ultimately no match for the Jonin. After all, he was only ten years old, his Chakra and White Fang Swordsmanship were not yet at their peak, and his signature Ninjutsu, Chidori, had not yet been developed.

Just as Kakashi fainted from Chakra exhaustion and the opposing Iwagakure Jonin was about to deliver the finishing blow, Minato stopped him. It was only then that the Rain Ninja examiner arrived belatedly.

"Ling, please heal Kakashi. The opponent's Rock Fist Technique caused many bruises on Kakashi," Minato said. He used Flying Thunder God to return to the stands, carrying Kakashi to Ling.

Ling intended to test Enka's healing ability. She first generated some positive Curse Power, then used Technique Reversal, borrowing Enka's ability, and a mass of Yang Release Chakra, disguised, appeared in her palm.

Then, Enka's Reversal Technique was used on Kakashi. There was no need for precise control, nor worry about excessive cell proliferation; the Reversal Technique directly restored the damaged cells.

Ling hadn't expected Enka's Reversal Technique to be able to restore damaged or dead cells. So, in just a few seconds, all the bruises on Kakashi's body completely disappeared, and even the hidden injuries Kakashi sustained from training were healed.

In his unconscious state, Kakashi suddenly felt his body lighter than ever before, as if a burden had been lifted, and all old ailments were gone, like a rebirth.

"Ling's Medical Ninjutsu is getting more and more powerful. Now, I'm afraid she's not inferior to Lady Tsunade."

Minato was also very surprised. He had researched Medical Ninjutsu before and knew that to achieve Ling's level of effect, one's Yang Release had to be as powerful as Tsunade's.

Ling was secretly pleased and immediately used Enka's Reversal Technique to heal herself. Although Ling had no hidden injuries, it still repaired some cells, making Ling feel very comfortable.

If this cell repair ability were used frequently, Immortality would definitely be possible. The aging of the human body is due to cells aging or being damaged, while new cells are limited by the Hayflick limit.

Now, Ling's use of Enka's Reversal Technique can not only restore aged cells to youth but also revive damaged cells, even repairing telomeres and clearing some free radicals.

"Sigh, Orochimaru pursued Immortality for most of his life, yet I obtained it so easily. How boring."

Ling felt a sense of emptiness after achieving her dream. Although this was only Immortality and not true Immortality, it was already remarkable. However, Ling vaguely felt that the soul had a lifespan limit.

However, Ling wasn't too worried. As her Chakra increased, Curse Power strengthened, and Sharingan upgraded, her soul would also continuously grow stronger. Moreover, practicing Sage Mode and Reincarnation Technique could also extend her soul's lifespan.

Since Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Hamura could have eternal souls, Ling could also reach their level.

After Ling's treatment, Kakashi fell into a baby-like sleep. It seemed he hadn't slept so peacefully and comfortably in a long time.

In the afternoon, the first round of matches had ended. Only Ling, Shisui, and Might Guy's team's Jonin from Konoha had advanced to the second round.

The others either encountered Jonin and were defeated, or their own strength was insufficient and they lost directly. Shiranui Genma's team's Jonin lost to a Cloud Ninja Jonin.

In fact, it was similar for most major Ninja Villages, with only two or three people passing the first round. As for the smaller Ninja Villages, they were even worse off, with most of them being completely wiped out.

Only the Amegakure, Takigakure Village, and Root had one person each pass. Regardless of whether the Daimyo were entertained, Ling was certainly entertained, having copied several practical Ninjutsu.

Although many people were injured after the first round, after Ling's treatment, they were all reborn, with all new and old injuries healed.

The people from other Ninja Villages were not so lucky and could only persist in tomorrow's matches with their injuries, mainly because the Medical Ninjutsu level of the Amegakure's Medical Ninja was simply indescribable.

At most, they could only disinfect, stop bleeding, and slightly accelerate the recovery of some injuries, which was a world apart from Ling, who could completely heal all injuries in a few seconds.

Returning to the resting area, Kakashi had already woken up and felt surprisingly good.

"Ling, thank you for your treatment." Kakashi also knew that among their team, only Uchiha Ling had such a level of skill.

"You're welcome. It's only right to help teammates, but Kakashi-kun, please don't push yourself too hard when facing opponents you can't beat." Ling knew Kakashi probably wouldn't listen, but she still reminded him.

"Mmm, I'll remember that." Kakashi just nodded and didn't make too many promises.

"Everyone, get some good rest. Tomorrow is the final, and after that, we can return to Konoha," Minato Namikaze said, looking at Ling and Shisui.

"Sensei, can I become a Chunin if I return to Konoha with this result?"

Obito was a bit dejected. This was his second Chunin Exams. The first time, he was kicked out by Might Guy, and the second time, he lost again, although he did last a long time.

"Oh, haha, I'm sorry, I don't know. It depends on how the Third Hokage decides."

Minato felt awkward saying that becoming a Chunin could be made easier during unfavorable war conditions or through temporary promotions, but it was quite difficult during peacetime.

Ling glanced at the frustrated Obito, feeling some sympathy. However, she thought it was better for Obito to remain a Genin. If he became a Chunin, the Third Shinobi World War would probably not be far off.

"Minato-nii, have Konoha's Anbu arrived?" Ling had felt that many people had infiltrated the Amegakure recently, but she didn't know if it was Konoha's arrangement.

"They have, but they're all outside the Village. Ling, you've also noticed the changes in the Amegakure, right?"

Minato had been contacting the Village and observing the situation in the Amegakure during this time. The situation was somewhat unusual.

"Since they're not Konoha Ninja, then they're probably the Anbu from the three great Ninja Villages. They're likely here for that purpose."

Ling and Minato Namikaze's words left them confused, but since Minato Namikaze didn't actively inform them, it meant they didn't need to know.

Moreover, Ling also felt that Danzo seemed to have some conspiracy, because this old man didn't even target her, whom he hated the most, but kept looking at Konan from time to time.
