Seeing Qingming break free, Terumi Mei did not hesitate for a moment and immediately ordered, "Continue attacking!"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding lower-ranked Mist ninjas immediately threw their kunai and shuriken.
In the next moment, a dense barrage of kunai and shuriken flew toward him.
Qingming watched the incoming attacks, his three-tomoe Sharingan pushed to the limit as he skillfully manipulated the chakra wings on his back, evading the barrage.
During this time, he certainly wanted to fly higher to escape.
However, due to his previous experience, some of the more perceptive lower-ranked ninjas began to intentionally block his path to the sky.
This caused him a great deal of discomfort!
Soon, the second wave of attacks came, but before he could react, the third wave was already on its way.
This time, not only were there the usual weapon attacks, but there were also ninjutsu assaults.
Looking at these attacks, Qingming's expression turned grim.
As the saying goes, "A thousand ants can kill an elephant."
Perhaps a few attacks here and there wouldn't pose a real threat to him, but repeated attacks would eventually wear him down.
In the past, he had fought against many opponents at once.
However, during those times, he was mostly using swordsmanship in close combat, and his enemies dared not casually use ninjutsu during those encounters.
Moreover, in those instances, although he faced many opponents, only a handful of them actually fought him at the same time.
But now, although he had the advantage of the terrain, he had also essentially removed himself from cover.
This meant the Mist ninjas could attack freely, without any limit on their numbers, which made things incredibly troublesome.
"I can't just let them keep this up," Qingming thought as he continued to dodge the attacks while forming hand seals.
He then opened his mouth and unleashed a ninjutsu—Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique!
A massive fireball erupted from his mouth, transforming into a fire dragon that charged directly at the group of Mist ninjas below.
In an instant, several of them were engulfed by the dragon's flames.
The next moment, the painful screams of the ninjas who were consumed by the fire echoed through the battlefield, sending a chill through the air.
However, even with this terrifying display of power, the Mist ninjas did not retreat.
The ninjas below only paused for a brief moment before launching their attack once again.
Thanks to the assistance of his Sharingan, Qingming was able to clearly see the incoming attacks. If anyone else were using Wind Style: Wind Wings, they likely would have been shredded by this barrage.
Nonetheless, Qingming was well aware that prolonged defense would inevitably result in mistakes.
So even though his earlier attack hadn't frightened the Mist ninjas, he did not give up on counterattacking.
He began unleashing a series of attacks—Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu, Fire Style: Fire Dragon, Fire Style: Fire Rain, and Wind Blade, all aimed at the Mist ninjas below.
In no time, the battlefield was engulfed in hellish flames, with the stench of blood and the charred remains of corpses filling the air, creating a nauseating atmosphere.
The Mist ninjas had suffered heavy casualties.
During this time, Terumi Mei and the other higher-ranked ninjas also took action, but mostly just to cover for any gaps in defense and prevent Qingming from escaping.
They seemed indifferent to the death of the lower-ranked Mist ninjas.
Clearly, they were willing to sacrifice these lives to wear him down.
However, their plan was bound to fail.
While Qingming had sustained some injuries during the battle in order to create opportunities to use ninjutsu, these wounds were not fatal.
Even without his LV8 Healing Technique, his natural healing ability was sufficient to keep him fighting for a long time.
Additionally, his chakra reserves were still abundant.
For a ninja, chakra was the most important resource.
But even with all the Mist ninjas below him, it was unrealistic to think they could exhaust all of his chakra.
Given these two factors, their plan of wearing him down with sacrifices was impossible to achieve.
At the very least, the current Mist ninjas were insufficient to deplete him.
Nonetheless, in order to kill as many Mist ninjas as possible, Qingming deliberately showed signs of fatigue, increasing the number of injuries on his body. Additionally, his ninjutsu accuracy began to decline slightly.
But, as expected, fake weariness was still fake.
At first, Terumi Mei and the others probably didn't notice the change, but when they saw Qingming continue to kill Mist ninjas despite his visible injuries, they began to realize something was wrong.
Finally, after Qingming used Wind Style: Wind Blade to kill two Mist Chunin, Terumi Mei called off the attack.
"Have you noticed?" Qingming muttered as he saw the Mist ninjas stop their assault.
At that point, he no longer tried to hide his intentions. He raised his hand and began forming hand seals, using Healing Technique to infuse a concentrated amount of yang chakra into his body, quickly healing his wounds.
Then, he quickly formed new hand seals and performed Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Technique!
In the next moment, a barrage of fireballs shot out from his mouth, much like a meteor shower, bombarding the Mist ninjas below.
Yes, after the Mist ninjas had paused their attack, Qingming took the initiative to strike.
This wasn't out of arrogance; rather, he realized that although the previous battle had been risky, the overall danger had been manageable.
As long as he remained cautious and didn't fall into any traps set by Terumi Mei and the other high-ranking ninjas, he could continue fighting.
Furthermore, in order to deal with him, Terumi Mei and the others would need to mobilize more forces.
This would relieve pressure on the Konoha ninjas elsewhere on the battlefield.
Thus, his goal of drawing fire away from other areas would be achieved.
Moreover, this "dancing on the edge of a blade" scenario would accelerate the growth of his Wind Style: Wind Wings.
After just that brief period of fighting, his proficiency in the technique had increased by nearly two hundred points. If things continued this way, it wouldn't be long before his Wind Style: Wind Wings reached LV3.
At that point, its flexibility would increase, which in turn would improve his overall safety.
This was a win-win situation, and he certainly wasn't going to pass it up.
Thus, he made his move.
As the rain of fireballs fell, the Mist ninjas below began dodging.
However, Qingming had mastered this technique to perfection, with exceptional control over the fireballs. Especially after his Spirit attribute broke past the 20-point mark, his control had grown even stronger.
It was as if the fireballs had eyes, each one homing in on the closest Mist ninja.
The Chunin were able to dodge with some effort, but the lower-ranked ninjas weren't so fortunate.
Several of them were directly struck by the fireballs, screaming as they fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Terumi Mei's expression darkened, and she immediately launched a Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet towards Qingming.
Upon seeing this, Qingming's eyes glinted with excitement. Instead of dodging, he performed hand seals and cast his own ninjutsu—Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique!
In the next moment, the fire dragon collided with the water dragon midair, emitting a sizzling sound.
A large amount of white mist quickly filled the area, covering a wide radius in the blink of an eye.
"Hmm? Something's wrong!"
Seeing the mist surrounding them, Terumi Mei instantly realized something was amiss.
Given the size of the fire and water dragons, there shouldn't have been this much mist in such a short amount of time.
After sensing the chakra in the mist, she thought to herself, "It's definitely the Mist Technique."
Upon confirming this, she was about to alert the others.
However, just then, a flash of light appeared.
A chilling killing intent swept over her, causing her to shiver involuntarily.
The next moment, her instincts took over, and she swiftly dodged to the side.
