Boom~
When Qing fell back into the illusion, Qingming did not hesitate. With a swift motion, he struck again, knocking him unconscious.
Then, he tore away the black cloth covering Qing's right eye.
What he saw clearly was the transplanted Byakugan.
It was like a gleaming gemstone, emitting a faint white light, clearly a high-purity Byakugan.
Yes, Byakugan also has a purity ranking.
Generally speaking, members of the Main House (the "Zongjia") have a slightly higher purity of Byakugan due to not having the restrictions or influences of the "caged bird" seal. In addition, they don't suffer from the 1° visual dead angle in the first cervical vertebra, unlike those of the branch family. Consequently, their abilities tend to be stronger.
Of course, this is not absolute; there are always exceptions, some talents who can defy this rule.
For example, Hyuga Neji.
His talent was exceptional, even in the entire history of the Hyuga clan.
Unfortunately, he died too young.
If we calculate the time, he should have already been born by now.
It's just uncertain what his fate might be in this life.
But this didn't concern Qingming much.
He never intended to get involved with the Hyuga clan. It was an old-fashioned, decaying family; there was nothing worth paying attention to.
Now, his only goal was to extract Qing's eye.
Qingming focused on Qing's body, carefully inspecting it. Then, he raised his hand, forming seals to activate the "Chakra Scalpel" technique.
Sss~
Sss~
His palm gently sliced across Qing's face, the faint sound of flesh being cut open.
Moments later, two incisions appeared at the corners of Qing's right eye, exposing the eyeball underneath.
With the eye now exposed, Qingming dispelled the Chakra Scalpel and activated a different technique—"Detailed Extraction Jutsu!"
This technique, when practiced to a high level, allows the extraction of not only toxins and pathogens but also organs.
Compared to other methods, organs extracted through "Detailed Extraction Jutsu" tend to remain more complete.
Qingming's skill in this jutsu was near level 6, so it perfectly suited his needs.
Without any issues, in less than two minutes, Qingming successfully removed Qing's right eye, the Byakugan from a member of the Hyuga clan's Main House.
The speed was so fast that it would likely have scared a whole team of surgeons in his past life, but in this world of chakra and extraordinary abilities, it was rather commonplace.
Qingming observed the eye. Even without the flesh and blood support, it still retained a considerable level of activity.
However, it couldn't be left exposed for too long.
With this in mind, Qingming reached into his ninja tools pouch and retrieved a small glass vial containing a green liquid.
He opened the vial, and with a "plop," he dropped the Byakugan into the solution.
Immediately, the eye began to float in the liquid, its nerves swaying, which looked a bit unsettling.
Qingming averted his gaze and closed the vial.
With this, the eye would stay viable for a long period.
Before deciding to act on Qing, Qingming had used his medical knowledge to prepare a nutrient solution. He had carried it with him just in case.
As it turned out, the preparation wasn't in vain.
Without the vial, Qingming wouldn't have known how to preserve the eye.
It was true that in the ninja world, eyes with chakra could be used almost immediately, but they needed to be implanted in the eye socket.
Right now, Qingming had two Mangekyō Sharingan—both original and irreplaceable. He couldn't just discard them lightly.
And as for transplanting this Byakugan into another person or place, with his current abilities, it was impossible. He lacked the knowledge of body modification techniques.
He still needed to study this area further, which would take some time.
During this period, the Byakugan couldn't be used.
This was why Qingming was so glad he had prepared in advance.
As for where to acquire the necessary knowledge…
Qingming had some ideas.
But he would have to wait until the current war ended to begin gathering information.
Additionally, Qingming glanced at the vial once more, then checked his "Guard Seal" skill on his system panel. He thought he should include sealing techniques in his studies.
At the very least, he needed to learn the "Seal Object Formation."
Otherwise, even storing an item would be inconvenient.
Moreover, sealing techniques were the physical embodiment of ninja tool regulations.
Though he possessed the "Tenno no Me" (Eyes of the Gods), a miraculous ocular technique that wasn't afraid of seals, the ability to seal even Ōtsutsuki Kaguya intrigued him.
Also, after the war, Qingming intended to deal with the Tailed Beasts, which would require sealing techniques as well.
Otherwise, even if he managed to obtain them, carrying and using them would be problematic. He couldn't rely on his Mangekyō Sharingan to control them forever.
Even if his Mangekyō Sharingan evolved to the Eternal Mangekyō level, he couldn't keep using it for that purpose without suffering long-term consequences.
Thus, learning sealing techniques would become a priority in the future.
As for the source of the knowledge, he had some ideas.
But again, he needed to wait until the war was over.
With this in mind, Qingming wished the war would end immediately.
However, he suppressed his impatience.
According to his memories from his previous life, the war was expected to end in just a few months.
He could wait that long.
Pulling his focus back, Qingming once again turned his attention to Qing.
He had initially planned to kill him directly, but at the last moment, he recalled Qing's reaction when he had first fallen into his illusion. This prompted him to read Qing's memories again.
Sss~
Qingming drew a kunai and sliced it across Qing's body.
The moment he felt the pain, Qing woke up with clarity.
But before he could react, he once again fell into the illusion spun by Qingming's "Genjutsu: Sharingan."
Last time, Qingming had mainly guided him to recall information regarding the "Guard Seal" technique and didn't retrieve other memories.
This time, however, Qingming intentionally prompted him to recall anything related to the Mangekyō Sharingan and other information related to him.
After a while, Qingming's face turned as dark as a frying pan.
It turned out that Qing had almost discovered his secret. He had almost pieced together that Qingming had activated the Mangekyō Sharingan.
No wonder, the moment Qing had seen his Mangekyō Sharingan, he recognized it right away.
It seems Qing had subconsciously already considered this possibility.
If Qing had figured it out early, Qingming would have been in big trouble.
Fortunately, Qing's luck wasn't on his side, and no one in the Uchiha clan had activated the Mangekyō Sharingan for decades.
Otherwise, he might have been exposed.
