Chapter 288 Finding the Tail Seedling
Chapter 288 Finding the Tail Seedling
The next morning, the sky over the snow country remained clear.
Uchiha Sanfeng and Kazahana Koyuki arrived together at the Duanyun Mountains in the east.
This mountain range is over 4,000 meters high, with steep peaks that are covered in ice and snow all year round. It looks like a huge silver dragon stretching across the eastern part of the snow country.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, looking up, the summit is hidden in the clouds, inspiring awe.
"This is the key location of the Broken Cloud Mountains. Once this passage is opened, the warm currents can flow into the Snow Country along the valley."
Uchiha Sanfeng pointed to a rather steep mountain in the middle of the mountain range, on the other side of which the trees were exceptionally dense.
"Xiaoxue, I've surveyed the terrain here. The wind and airflow converge here, making it the best location to create an opening."
Feng Hua Xiaoxue nodded, her eyes full of anticipation: "Then I'll leave it to you, Sanfeng."
Uchiha Mitsunori activated his golden Rinnegan with six tomoe and leaped into the air.
Then, he let out a low shout: "Earth Explosion Star!"
The black core suddenly flew towards the middle of the Broken Cloud Mountains, unleashing a tremendous gravitational force in the air.
The surrounding rocks and snow were instantly sucked towards the core, forming a huge rock sphere that forcibly peeled away the rocks of the mountain.
"Boom... Boom... Boom..." Loud noises rang out continuously, and a gap more than two thousand meters wide and more than one thousand meters high suddenly appeared in the middle of the mountain range.
Warm winds blew in through the gap, reaching the land of the snow country and bringing long-awaited warmth.
"Sanfeng, you're amazing!" Feng Hua Xiaoxue exclaimed excitedly, her eyes filled with surprise.
Uchiha Sanfeng landed next to Xiaoxue and said with a smile, "Next, we'll open up the western mountain range so that the warm current can flow."
Next, using the same method, another gap a kilometer wide was created by "Earth Explosion Star".
As the two gaps opened, warm currents from the outside flowed in, blowing across the land of the Snow Country, and the originally cold air gradually became warmer.
The transformation of the mountain range is a major undertaking. Large areas of the snow-capped mountains in the Land of Snow are beginning to melt, and streams are converging into rivers.
More grass shoots broke through the soil, and even some hardy wildflowers bloomed on the hillside.
The people of the Snow Country came out of their homes and cheered with joy at the sight before them.
Some people were tilling the fields with hoes, some were running to the river to fetch water, and children were chasing and playing on the grass. The whole snow country was immersed in the joy of welcoming spring.
"The Land of Snow is finally saved! We'll never have to suffer from the cold again!"
The people's praises were endless, filled with gratitude.
Just then, Uchiha Mitsunori sensed something amiss and threw Kazahana Koyuki back into the Snow Kingdom's palace.
Feng Hua Xiaoxue asked in confusion, "Sanfeng, what's wrong?"
"Near the gap in the Broken Cloud Mountains, there's a base with faint energy fluctuations, like an outpost of some organization. I'll go check it out and be right back."
After saying that, the Uchiha Sanfeng flew towards the gap in the Broken Cloud Mountains.
Using the Byakugan's ability to see through objects, he quickly discovered the hidden base entrance in a cave deep in the mountains.
The entrance was covered by a disguised barrier, and it would have been difficult to discover if it weren't for the energy fluctuations during the mountain's transformation that interfered with the barrier.
Uchiha Sanfeng quietly dispelled the barrier and slipped into the cave.
The cave was a spacious area filled with various instruments, but it was completely empty.
Just as he was about to investigate further, a short, elderly man in a white robe emerged from behind the equipment.
Upon seeing Uchiha Mitsunaga, he trembled with fear, his legs buckling as he knelt on the ground: "M-Master, spare me! I'm just a gatekeeper, I know nothing!"
Uchiha Mitsumine instantly locked onto the old man: "Genjutsu: Sharingan!"
"Who are you? Where is this place?"
After being controlled by the illusion, the old man said, "I... I am called Bagu, and I am an outer member of the Kara organization. This is the outer base of the Kara organization... The true base of the Kara organization is in another dimension..."
A glint of light flashed in Uchiha Mitsumine's eyes: "An alternate dimension? Where's the teleportation array?"
Bagu, being very honest, quickly pointed to a circular magic circle in the corner of the cave: "That...that's the teleportation array, it requires specific chakra to activate..."
Uchiha Mitsunori walked to the teleportation array, observed it carefully for a moment, and then mobilized Yin-Yang Release chakra, injecting it into the teleportation array.
As chakra was injected, the teleportation array glowed with a black light, and a spatial passage unfolded within it.
"You stay here and don't leave." After saying this, Uchiha Mitsumine stepped into the spatial passage.
The alternate dimension was desolate, with cracks all over the ground, giving people a sense of oppression.
Instead of acting rashly, he opened a spatial portal: "Kaguya, I've discovered the Kara organization's alternate dimension base. Come here immediately."
Upon hearing this, Kaguya Otsutsuki emerged from the spatial passage.
"Is this the Shell Organization's alternate dimension base? The energy fluctuations are chaotic, like the presence of the Ten-Tails."
The two followed the direction of the energy fluctuations and soon discovered a small ten-tailed creature in the building area of the alternate dimension.
It was bound underground by some chains, emitting a low growl.
A hint of surprise flashed in Kaguya's eyes: "A little Ten-Tails! I didn't expect Isshiki to be hiding a Ten-Tails juvenile."
Uchiha Mitsunori pondered for a moment: "It seems this is Otsutsuki Isshiki's secret weapon."
Kaguya Otsutsuki arrogantly activated her Rinne Sharingan with nine tomoe, unleashing a powerful ocular force that instantly enveloped the Ten-Tails' juvenile form.
"Buzz..."
The ten-tailed larva struggled for a few moments before being firmly controlled by the power of its eyes and no longer moving.
Kaguya Otsutsuki raised her hand and opened a passage connecting to the auxiliary space, throwing the little Ten-Tails into it.
"The Ten-Tails possesses immense chakra and is a vital treasure of the Otsutsuki clan. As long as the Ten-Tails' larvae are in our hands, Isshiki Otsutsuki will come to us!"
After dealing with the Ten-Tails hatchling, Uchiha Mitsunori and Kaguya began searching the alternate dimension, only to discover that the members of the Kara organization had already evacuated.
Uchiha Mitsunori was silent for a while: "It's a pity we didn't find Otsutsuki Isshiki, but he knows that the Ten-Tails' larva is missing, so he should be even more nervous than we are. I need to stay in the Land of Snow for a while longer."
The two did not linger and returned to the cave in the Snow Country via the teleportation array.
At this moment, Bagu stood there trembling, too scared to even breathe when he saw the two return.
"How much do you know about shell tissue?"
Baku quickly recounted all the information he knew about the Kara organization, including its leader, its members, and their purpose in collecting the Tailed Beasts.
Uchiha Mitsunori listened carefully and memorized the information.
"Let's take this old man back first; perhaps we can get more from him..."
