Chapter 51: But that was several years ago...
Wanci was just casually making empty promises to Black Zetsu.
Of course, this applies if Black Zetsu has already submitted to the right path.
That would naturally allow Mount Myōboku to have one more sage.
Black Zetsu Immortal.
As for whether anyone will be willing to sign a contract with Black Zetsu in the future....
Mount Myoboku, Changsei Peak
10,000 occurrences
His gaze lowered, his palms outstretched, and two Rinnegan eyes floated silently, their eye patterns radiating the supreme pressure unique to the Otsutsuki lineage.
"The Rinnegan, Hagoromo's Rinnegan, truly wondrous!"
He gently rubbed his fingertips together countless times, feeling the power within the Rinnegan, a faint smile playing on his lips.
I've snatched too many amazing tools from them.
Such as the Totsuka Blade, the Six Paths Treasures, the Rinnegan, etc.
In the path of cultivation, having more skills is never a bad thing. Having more top-notch power is ultimately beneficial in every way.
But the next second, a glint flashed in Wan Ci's eyes, and his tone became a little more serious:
"However, I don't believe that Yu Yi died just like that."
Wanci gazed meaningfully at the Rinnegan in his palm, his invisible senses instantly seeping into the eye like a tidal wave.
next moment.
The secrets hidden deep within the Rinnegan were completely revealed.
A faint yet extremely concentrated wisp of soul chakra was curled up inside; it was none other than the sleeping Hagoromo Otsutsuki!
Wanci's lips curled into a mocking smile, his tone carrying a hint of disdain: "Heh, Yuyi, you're still too young. Trying to fight me is ultimately too naive."
As he had expected, Hagoromo Otsutsuki had never truly died; he had merely hidden his soul chakra within the Rinnegan, setting up a hidden plan.
Once this soul chakra is activated by an external force, Hagoromo can manifest in the world in soul form, and can even, like in the original work, freely bestow Yin-Yang power upon others, acting as a facilitator for giving away power-ups.
It seems that Hagoromo offered up the Rinnegan with this intention in mind.
Hagoromo was certain that Manji wouldn't examine those eyes closely, and even more certain that the Rinnegan was absolutely safe in Manji's hands, and no one would dare to damage it.
In this way, he can hide in the eye of reincarnation, observe all things in the world from the perspective of ten thousand times, and wait for the right opportunity to act.
"That brat Yu Yi actually dared to set a trap for me."
Wan chuckled softly, not blaming Yu Yi.
This was just normal manipulation; Yu Yi was only doing it as a precaution.
Having lived for too long, I've seen it all too often, and I'm used to all sorts of conspiracies and schemes.
Back then, Kaguya feigned offering the fruit of the Divine Tree, Yatagarasu bowed and offered the ancient demon sword, and now Hagoromo has given her the Rinnegan. Every single one of these events is a meticulously woven trap.
Wanci was already extremely wary, so how could he allow such a scheme to fall on his head?
"Immortal Technique: Imprisonment and Sealing!"
Ten thousand times, the spell was cast in a low voice.
The Sage Art Sealing Technique instantly wrapped around the Rinnegan, imprisoning Hagoromo's soul chakra within it, completely sealing off any possibility of him sending a cheat code from afar or causing trouble in secret.
Having done all this, Manji casually put away the Rinnegan and walked towards the back mountain: "Next, let's go see Indra."
The back mountain of Changsheng Peak is covered with spiritual herbs, and the chakra concentration far exceeds that of the outside world.
Indra was sitting cross-legged on a blue stone, practicing asceticism.
Indra had long given up the idea of vying for the Ninja Sect; his only obsession was to defeat Asura.
Upon seeing Wanci approach, Indra immediately rose and bowed, his tone earnest: "Grandmaster!"
Looking intently into his eyes, Wanci slowly asked, "Indra, is defeating Asura really that important?"
Indra straightened his body, his eyes incredibly serious, without the slightest hesitation: "Yes, Grandmaster, I must defeat Asura first! Everything else can wait!"
Wanci heard this and remained slightly speechless.
I simply cannot understand the thought process of these two brothers. In the original story, it is even more outrageous. Their souls are reincarnated for thousands of years, constantly entangled and fighting to the death. What is the meaning of such an endless struggle?
I won't say it again until it's been said ten thousand times.
"Master, the cultivation path of the Sage Mode of Mount Myōboku is contrary to my own chakra nature, so it may not be suitable for me."
Indra frowned again and spoke.
Wanci pondered for a moment upon hearing this. The magic of Mount Myōboku is mainly about nature and peace, leaning towards gentle healing, which is inherently incompatible with Indra's domineering, sharp, and arrogant nature.
Perhaps the sage techniques of Ryuchi Cave, with their unpredictable and domineering nature and cold chakra, are the most suitable for him.
Thinking of this, he looked up at Indra ten thousand times.
"Since Mount Myoboku is not suitable for you, I will show you another way: go to Ryuchi Cave to cultivate."
"Ryuchi Cave will naturally teach you cultivation out of respect for me."
Thousands of times, he spoke softly.
Upon hearing this, Indra's eyes flashed with gratitude.
The patriarch saved him from dire straits time and time again!
They're even closer to me than my own father.
Now he's given himself another piece of divine guidance.
"Grandmaster, I don't understand. Why did you choose to save me? Yu Yi is also your disciple. Why were you willing to fight another disciple for my sake?"
Indra, puzzled, asked.
He couldn't understand why his master had saved him. He had always thought it was because his master was thinking of their master-disciple relationship.
However, now, Hagoromo and Manji have a master-disciple relationship spanning hundreds of years, so logically their bond is deeper.
Wan smiled slightly and gently patted Indra's shoulder.
"Because Ashura and Hagoromo have countless Ninja Clan members behind them, while you, Indra, only have your master behind you..."
Wan Ci laughed.
Upon hearing this, Indra's eyes reddened slightly. Yes, the only one who truly wanted him to live was his patriarch.
"Grandmaster! You're my real father!"
Indra knelt on the ground, moved, and said.
Wanci's eyes flashed with astonishment.
He then twitched his lips and said with a hint of helplessness, "Alright, get up, don't be like this. Go to Dragon Land Cave and cultivate diligently, just mention my name to the Black Serpent Immortal."
"Yes, Master!"
Indra nodded emphatically, his eyes filled with determination.
Wanci watched Indra leave with a detached expression.
About a month later, Indra returned from Ryuchi Cave.
"Grandmaster, you are wrong about one thing. The Black Snake Immortal has already passed away. The White Snake Immortal is now in charge of Dragon Land Cave."
Indra said.
Indra's aura was even stronger upon his return, and his chakra was even colder.
"Oh? The black snake is dead... The little white snake has become an immortal..."
A sigh flashed across Wanci's eyes.
"By the way, Ancestor, this is a letter that the White Snake Immortal asked me to bring to you."
Indra suddenly remembered and handed the letter to Mantek.
Wan Ci was taken aback and took the letter.
I haven't seen the White Snake in a very long time, probably several hundred years.
I haven't watched the battle since I suppressed the Ten-Tails against Kaguya.
Despite the contract, Wanci did not contact the White Snake.
"Manji-kun, hundreds of years have passed, how are you?"
It was just a brief greeting.
Looking at the White Snake's greeting letter countless times, he seemed to see that dashing, bright, and playful girl again in his eyes, but... but... but that was hundreds of years ago.
It really is:
I long for you across the ends of the earth, but you are beyond my reach; looking back, a hundred years have passed.
