Start with a Zanpakuto and build the strongest Mist Village

Chapter 177 Night: "My bargaining chip, you can neither refuse nor reject it."

The overall situation of Ryuchi Cave is similar to Myoboku Mountain in the original work, except that the overall environment is more like a damp and cold forest where snakes live, and it is covered with stalactites.

After just the initial entry, Ye knew why this place was known as one of the three holy places. It was not only because of the immortal White Snake Immortal, but also because the concentration of natural energy in the entire Wet Bone Forest was extraordinary!

In the original work, the prince practiced the Sage Mode in Myoboku Mountain, gathering the power of nature, and was able to enter the Sage State easily. However, in the outside world, it takes a long time to condense. This shows the difference in the concentration of natural energy between the two.

"If you stay in a place like this for a long time, even a pig can probably fly in the sky."

Ye Xu grabbed the air, as if he was holding streams of strong natural energy in his hands.

However, compared with the three holy places, Shadow Island is not bad, because the dragon vein chakra was placed in Shadow Island by Ye.

Although in terms of quality, the Dragon Vein Chakra may not be comparable to the pure natural energy of the three holy places that has been accumulated for thousands of years, but the huge amount of Dragon Vein Chakra, after being endlessly compressed by the night and condensed in a place like Shadow Island, its energy is still huge and considerable.

"Yes, rich natural energy can promote the growth of organisms. This is why the summoned beasts of the three holy places are stronger than ordinary summoned beasts." Orochimaru paused and said, "Of course, natural energy is secondary. The most important thing is the existence of the 'immortal'."

"Immortals?" Ye chuckled. "I have seen many gods, and I have also seen two old toads claiming to be immortals at Myoboku Mountain. They are far from the immortals and gods I imagine."

"Gama Fukasaku and Gama Shima..."

Hearing Ye's words, the image of the two toad immortals suddenly appeared in Orochimaru's mind. He shook his head and said, "Their existence cannot be regarded as true immortals. There are also such 'immortals' serving the White Snake Immortal in the Ryuchi Cave."

"There is only one immortal in the holy land, and that is the White Snake Immortal of our Longdi Cave, the Toad Immortal of Miaoboku Mountain, and the Slug Immortal of the Wet Bone Forest."

"I don't know how powerful the Six Paths Sage is, but in my opinion, they are definitely not inferior to the Six Paths Sage. They are the real sages in this world!"

"maybe."

Ye did not comment.

In the original work, both Gamamaru and the White Snake Sage have strong expressiveness. Needless to say, the former, even the Six Paths Sage was schemed by him. He has a resurrection talisman in his hand that can reverse life and death, and can also predict the future.

Although the latter is not written much, just the tip of the iceberg revealed is enough to show that its power is not inferior to that of Gamamaru.

"Although I heard you praising the White Snake Immortal as soon as I arrived, it is probably against the rules to bring outsiders here casually, Orochimaru."

An abrupt voice interrupted the conversation between Ye and Orochimaru, and three graceful figures stood in front of the two.

One is like a girl.

One of them looks like a loli.

One person looks like a young woman.

The three of them have fair skin, gentle and beautiful looks, and each has her own unique style.

Ye's eyes kept looking at the three women. This was certainly not the result of his old perverted behavior, as he was unable to walk when seeing beautiful women. Instead, he felt the strong fairy chakra in the bodies of the three women.

The strength of that chakra was extremely high and extremely pure, even stronger than that of Gamafukasaku and Gamashima.

If ordinary humans could master this level of Sage Chakra, entering Sage Mode would be as easy as using one's own arms, and their combat power would be extraordinary!

"It's very rude to keep staring at someone like this."

Ye's unscrupulous gaze made the three women frown. Tian Xinshen Ji snorted lightly, and the fairy chakra in her body was silently activated. The world in front of Orochimaru and Ye suddenly changed under the influence of this chakra.

But in just a moment, the illusory world shattered, and Tian Xinshen Ji groaned and fell to the ground in embarrassment. The girl's illusion on her body completely disappeared, revealing her ugly appearance of a snake woman covered with snake scales.

"This is the first time I've seen you in such an embarrassed state, Tian Xin Shen Ji."

Orochimaru said with a smile that he also wanted to practice fairy arts like Jiraiya, but because of practicing some forbidden techniques, his soul power was quite weak, and he suffered from illusions for a long time, so his practice failed.

Although he later recovered his strength and had the qualifications and confidence to practice immortal arts, he eventually gave up practicing immortal arts because he had already begun preparing for reincarnation.

There is no way around it.

When practicing immortal arts, one not only needs to absorb natural energy, but also needs to maintain a balance between natural energy, physical energy, and spiritual energy in the body.

However, after performing the technique of reincarnation, the body and mind will have a certain rejection reaction and will be unable to exert their own strength. Naturally, it will be difficult to maintain the balance between physical energy and mental energy, not to mention adding natural energy.

Eventually, Orochimaru gave up on training in Senjutsu, and his interactions with the three great snake princesses became less frequent.

"Orochimaru!"

Princess Tsuzu and Princess Ichikijima hurriedly helped Tanashima up. The former growled at Orochimaru, then stared at Mizunoe Tsukiyomi, her heart filled with horror.

No wonder he was called an "extremely special guy" by the White Snake Immortal. His chakra reaction was obviously almost the same as Orochimaru's, but in just a moment, he broke through the fairy illusion of Tian Xin Shen Ji and even directly caused her to backfire and seriously injure her. This kind of thing has never happened in the past hundred years!

"Alright, alright, the White Snake Immortal should have known about the news that Lord Mizukage and I came here a long time ago." Orochimaru said softly, glancing at Ye beside him: "Although I really want to have a chat with you after a long time, Lord Mizukage is not such an easy person to talk to."

"So, take us to see the White Snake Immortal first."

"It's not a good habit to casually vilify others. I am a kind person, which is recognized by the people of the Hidden Mist Village. What I did just now was just a subconscious conditioned reflex, the self-defense of the soul. It was really an unintentional act."

"Is it so powerful just by an unintentional act?..."

Tian Xinshen Ji leaned against the two snake princesses in a somewhat awkward manner. It took her a while to stabilize her body. She used her fairy chakra to recover her state, smiled, and looked at Mizuno Yueye solemnly: "I was rude before, Your Excellency Mizukage. The three of us are in charge of the assessment of creatures entering the Ryuchi Cave. This is our first time meeting you, so we subconsciously acted like this."

"But your strength is beyond doubt, so all you need to do next is for you, Mizukage, to follow us and go directly to meet the White Snake Immortal."

"Well, that's very good!"

Ye nodded in satisfaction: "Not only are you more comfortable to look at than the dead toads in Myoboku Mountain, but your words are also much nicer to hear."

The three snake princesses twitched their lips slightly. They did not think that this was a compliment to them, but their understanding of Ye also deepened.

Princess Sanshe wisely remained silent and led the way, while Orochimaru and Ye followed behind. Soon, the three of them arrived at a dark place. "White Snake Immortal, the guests have arrived."

Tian Xinshen Ji spoke respectfully, then took the hands of her other two companions and respectfully stepped aside.

The big white snake coiled on the throne was holding an exquisitely crafted pipe in its mouth. Its tail swayed slightly, and the three snake princesses disappeared sensibly. In the empty and dark space, only two people and one snake were left.

"I'm curious, why did the Soul Master come to my little place like Ryuchi Cave instead of building his own invisible empire in the Ninja World?"

The two men and the snake looked at each other. After a moment of silence, the white snake that had existed since the time of Kaguya Otsutsuki took a deep breath from its pipe, exhaled some gray smoke, and was the first to break the silence.

Those calm words were like thunder to Orochimaru.

He knew the methods of the White Snake Immortal. This immortal possessed the power to see through the secrets of the entire ninja world. That was why he was shocked by the words of the White Snake Immortal.

[Lord of the Soul][Invisible Empire]

What is Death and Soul Society? It turns out that Mizunotsuki has already been able to achieve that level? !

"I can't help it. Although the holy land I built can barely be called a holy land, that guy is so stupid and doesn't have all the inherited memories. So I can only come to you old guys who have survived from the Otsutsuki era to the present day."

Ye slowly walked to the front of the White Snake Immortal and bowed to the majestic white snake in front of him.

"Nice to meet you. I am the fourth Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village in the Land of Water, the founder of the Seireitei Gotei 13 and the captain of the First and General Divisions, and the Emperor of the Invisible Empire. Mizuno Tsukiyo."

"...It's a name that makes people dread it."

The White Snake Immortal murmured softly: "Whether you are from outer space or the master of souls, you outsiders are different. You are always so special and incompatible with the ninja world."

"At least the attitude towards you indigenous people is different, isn't it?"

Ye was not surprised that the White Snake Immortal directly revealed his identity.

This guy is on the same level as Gamamaru from Myobokusan.

What destiny, what future? These guys are like holding the script in their hands, standing at the top of the ninja world, overlooking the world.

"I don't know what kind of agreement your Excellency, the toad in Myoboku Mountain, and the one in the Wet Bone Forest reached with the original Otsutsuki Hagoromo. But the threat from the outsiders always exists."

Mizuno Yueye looked at the White Snake Immortal and said in a deep voice: "I actually hate troublesome things, but I hate those guys who threaten my life and freedom at will even more."

"Do you understand what I mean, Your Excellency?"

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!"

"Human nature is born out of desire, and is destined to slowly fall into darkness." The piercing laughter of the White Snake Immortal enveloped the entire open space: "Everyone who comes here has abandoned everything they have in order to satisfy their desires. Lord of the soul, do you think you can abandon all that? Do you think you can come up with the chips that will move me and make me give up cooperating with Liudao?"

"can."

Ye spoke calmly, his tone unquestionable: "My bargaining chip, you can neither refuse nor reject it."

"Oh?" The White Snake Immortal narrowed his eyes and said, "Soul Master, you have seen the power of the Six Paths Immortal, but do you know that power is nothing compared to me?"

Ye did not speak, nor did he put his hand on the Binglun Pill at his waist. He just looked at the White Snake Immortal in front of him.

One dark blue, one light blue.

Two completely different rays of light flashed in Ye's eyes. Even though Ye did not mobilize any strength at this moment, Orochimaru beside him felt an inexplicable palpitation.

The White Snake Immortal raised his head, stuck out his tongue, and stared at the night without saying a word. For a moment, the entire open space fell silent again.

After a long time, the White Snake Immortal with immeasurable strength seemed to have admitted defeat. He leaned back on his treasure bed with a groan, smoking his pipe one puff after another. The smoke even covered his huge body.

"It's incredible... I don't know whether it's a blessing or a misfortune for people like me in the ninja world to have someone like you around."

After a moment, a slightly hoarse old voice came out from the smoke: "I am different from that dead toad. He likes to control everything tightly. He likes the feeling of controlling everything."

"But I'm different. I prefer something a little more exciting."

"Humanity, darkness, and a little bit of gambling, is more interesting, isn't it?" The White Snake Immortal put his pipe aside and poked his head out of the smoke: "Tell me, Lord of Souls, what do you need me to do?"

"Let me take a look at everything that happened, confirm some things, and the existence of some guys."

Ye smiled kindly, and the deep blue light in his eyes disappeared. "Besides that, I am also very interested in the Sage Mode of your Longdi Cave. If possible, I would like to try it out."

"As the master of the soul, you just use the body as an experimental toy. You are such a willful fellow."

The White Snake Immortal snorted: "Then come one by one... Do you want to see it too?"

Standing aside, Orochimaru, who was completely stunned by the conversation between Ye and the White Snake Immortal, paused and licked the corner of his mouth: "Who doesn't want to understand the myths and legends of thousands of years ago?"

"Greedy boy, okay, let's take a look together."

A thin white smoke came out of the White Snake Immortal's mouth. Under the stimulation of the indescribable strong immortal chakra, the thin smoke was like fog, filling the entire space.

In the fog, both Ye and Orochimaru felt that the world in front of them was constantly changing, like a dream.

After a few breaths, the two suddenly found themselves in a desolate world.

The world was devastated, desolate and broken. Suddenly, three figures appeared in the sky and an unparalleled and terrifying battle broke out.

"Take a good look at what this world was like in the past, and look at the origins of how this world evolved into what it is today!" The voice of the White Snake Immortal sounded in the ears of the two. Inexplicably, there was a hint of sarcasm and self-mockery in the voice.

"Also take a look at the ridiculous family drama of these outsiders."
