The feeling of Sage Mode was simply incredible.
Especially when Ning Feng tried walking, he could clearly sense that he felt as light as flying—almost as if he was no longer a mortal, but an immortal.
A transcendent, supreme sage who had stepped beyond the mundane world.
Moreover, compared to his normal state, he could distinctly feel that under Sage Mode, not only was he not tired—he actually felt relaxed.
With that thought, Ning Feng lightly stepped on the ground.
Just that single, gentle step—
Ning Feng felt as though he had been launched by a rocket, shooting straight upward in an instant and soaring into the sky.
When his gaze finally returned to the ground, he realized that he was already more than a hundred meters in the air.
The spot where he had stepped cracked open instantly. A terrifying shockwave rippled outward, nearly destroying everything around it, vividly demonstrating its crushing, overwhelming power.
One had to know—this was merely a light step.
And it already possessed such terrifying force.
If he were to unleash true senjutsu techniques, just how horrifying would their power be!?
As Ning Feng marveled at this, even the Four-Tails within his sea of consciousness was deeply shaken, clearly sensing Ning Feng's terrifying potential.
All of a sudden, the Four-Tails had the strange feeling that it had chosen the right host.
If it were anyone else, how could they possibly wield such terrifying strength!?
Taking a deep breath, Ning Feng descended back to the ground.
By then, Fukasaku Sage and Shima Sage had already rushed over in shock. Shima Sage hurriedly asked,
"Uchiha Feng, how do you feel right now!?"
Over the years, countless shinobi had come to Mount Myōboku seeking to train in senjutsu.
Among them were many geniuses with extraordinary talent—yet among all of them, not a single one had ever successfully entered Sage Mode on their very first attempt.
Even sages like Fukasaku and Shima themselves had expended enormous effort and endured countless hardships before barely succeeding.
But this Uchiha Feng…
The more they thought about it, the more strange and profound their gazes toward Ning Feng became.
Nearby, Namikaze Minato stood quietly, saying nothing, his eyes filled with deep affection and anticipation.
At the same time, Minato secretly let out a sigh of relief.
With Sage Mode at his disposal, there were probably very few people left in the entire ninja world who could threaten Ning Feng.
In other words, Ning Feng had truly stepped out of the ranks of second- and third-rate shinobi and officially entered the domain of first-rate elites—standing firmly at the very top of the ninja food chain!
That said, Minato couldn't help feeling a little sour inside.
When he had trained in senjutsu back then, heaven knew how much sweat and effort he had poured into it.
Yet this brat Ning Feng succeeded in a single attempt.
That talent…
Compared to his own, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Seeing the looks of envy from everyone around him, Ning Feng's lips curved slightly upward.
He himself was also puzzled.
In the original story, even a prodigy like Naruto had needed a long period of training before mastering Sage Mode.
Yet Ning Feng had succeeded on his very first try, entering Sage Mode in such a short time.
But after thinking it through, it made sense.
After all, at his current level, he possessed multiple Kekkei Genkai. These bloodline abilities not only granted him terrifying power, but also elevated his chakra control to an almost absurd level.
Senjutsu chakra, at its core, was the perfect fusion of three energies.
Ning Feng's control over his own chakra was already incredibly precise, so his control over other forms of energy naturally wouldn't be lacking. Being able to enter Sage Mode immediately was therefore quite reasonable.
Of course, if he hadn't possessed so many Kekkei Genkai beforehand, his progress would never have been this fast.
As Ning Feng was reflecting on this, the still-shocked Fukasaku Sage finally recovered somewhat and walked over with a smile.
"Uchiha Feng, I truly admire you."
"This kind of heaven-defying talent is simply unimaginable… Even the former God of Shinobi, Senju Hashirama, might not compare!"
As he spoke, Fukasaku Sage shot a glance at Shima Sage, who quickly continued,
"The duration of Sage Mode isn't long, which is why natural energy needs to be constantly stored."
"The reason you were able to enter Sage Mode just now was entirely thanks to the toad oil."
"What we need to train next is your ability to absorb natural energy even without moving…"
Shima Sage took a deep breath.
"Before you, your teacher's teacher, Jiraiya, needed to summon the two of us and have us stand on his shoulders every time he entered Sage Mode, helping him absorb natural energy."
"And your teacher Minato also required a long period of stillness to absorb natural energy before entering Sage Mode."
"Although your absorption speed far exceeds that of your teacher and Jiraiya, staying motionless for a long time would still leave you with a major weakness…"
Hearing this, Ning Feng nodded heavily.
In the original story, Sage Mode was undeniably powerful, but the conditions to enter it were extremely harsh. One had to continuously absorb natural energy to a certain threshold, during which even the most talented shinobi couldn't move freely—leaving huge openings for enemies.
Otherwise, in battle, an opponent could simply defeat Ning Feng while he was absorbing natural energy.
Unfortunately for Shima Sage, this concern was completely irrelevant to Ning Feng—who possessed the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique and had read the original story.
With a light hand seal, Ning Feng directly created more than ten shadow clones.
He had them all sit cross-legged, apply toad oil, and begin absorbing natural energy.
Every time his Sage Mode ended, he would simply dispel one shadow clone.
Seeing Ning Feng do this, Shima Sage and Fukasaku Sage were utterly stunned by his method.
Even Namikaze Minato—who rarely used Sage Mode himself—revealed a so you can do that!? expression.
On the spot, Minato even left behind two shadow clones of his own at Mount Myōboku, planning to use them when he needed to enter Sage Mode in the future.
And so, in the time that followed, Ning Feng remained at Mount Myōboku, continuously training—
Fully immersing himself in mastering the profound mysteries of Sage Mode.
