In the Sand Village, the clones are everywhere, and the Arkham game begins

Chapter 380: When will the first seven cups of the Supreme Sorcerer's Singing King Conference be held?
"This is the Bagua Seal. The principle is to inlay a completely opposite, yet complementary, Reverse Four Symbols Seal on top of the Four Symbols Seal. This way, the power of the seal can be increased several times without interfering with the Four Symbols Seal. It's a pity that Grandma Mito passed away just before the Reverse Four Symbols Seal was halfway through its development."

Kushina said with a somewhat depressed look.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took the book and started flipping through it on the spot.

As a professor of ninjutsu, his level of sealing techniques is pretty good. Although he is far inferior to the two generations of sealing masters, Kushina and Uzumaki Mito, he also masters advanced sealing techniques such as the Four Symbols Seal and the Five Elements Seal. His attainments in sealing techniques are considered first-class in the ninja world.

However, even for him, the contents of the book were a bit difficult to read.

It took the Third Hokage a long while to roughly understand the above content.

It is certain that even for him, it would be difficult to use the Bagua Seal after it is made, let alone develop it.

"I see the handwriting on the back is a little different? Kushina, have you been perfecting this jutsu over the years?"

"Well, if I can develop the Bagua Seal, I won't have to be trapped in the barrier anymore."

Kushina nodded her head.

"how much longer?"

"It should have been in the past few years, right? Minato also helped me a lot."

"Kushina, do you mind if I give you a new S-rank mission? Focus on developing the Bagua Seal. As long as it does not affect the war, the village will provide manpower and resources for your research and development."

"Thank you, Sandaime-sama!"

Looking at Kushina's excited eyes, Namikaze Minato remained silent.

He knew that the Third Hokage was preparing Kushina, the Jinchūriki, to go to the battlefield.

But he couldn't stop it, nor would he stop it.

Because Kushina has been almost imprisoned in this sealing barrier for many years, no one knows better than him, who is Kushina's closest person, how much she desires freedom and everything outside.

Then, he must try his best to change Konoha's situation on the battlefield and prevent Kushina from stepping onto the dangerous battlefield!

Thinking of this, Minato Namikaze turned his gaze back to the sealed scroll.

"Okay, let's stop here for now. Next, I have to go to the Uchiha clan's territory and visit Fugaku. Now it's time for the village to use the Uchiha's trump card.

Minato, time is of the essence, you must be ready to go tomorrow."

"Yes! The Third Generation!"

……

……

In the Marvel world, Africa, Congo, in a primitive jungle, in the ruins of a temple.

Qingshui entered here with several Kamar-Taki mages, and within half an hour, they dealt with a lich wizard who had been resurrected here hundreds of years ago, and banished the alien creatures summoned by him back to their own dimension.

"Master Walter, this thing is much better than magic!"

A young African wizard said loudly as he looked excitedly at the silver-white pistol in his hand that had several runes engraved on it.

"Didier, rune magic is also magic, but many low-end runes can be transformed through ordinary energy. Once you encounter a powerful enemy, or special creatures like the undead, you still have to use magic that requires a price to pay."

Beside Qingshui, the bald Master Liu warned the young black mage.

It's just that he is more exaggerated than that African American.

Because directly behind him was a large machine gun that was also engraved with runes.

As soon as rune magic was introduced to Kamar-Taki by Qingshui, it was welcomed by these wizards.

Because many low-end runes can be directly cast using electricity and other energies that are more common in human society.

This spell can be cast without paying any price to the dimensional demon. At most, the upper limit of power will be subject to certain restrictions, and magic involving special fields such as space, such as teleportation aperture, cannot be cast.

But it can still replace a considerable portion of magic used in combat.

Which wizard would not want to use some magic without paying a price?

At most, the power won't be that high, and there is a solution.

Quite a number of mages have a strong scientific research spirit and keep pace with the times.

Runes were thus combined with various cold and hot weapons, and magical instruments equipped with high-energy batteries were born. Even bullets were specially modified, with small runes engraved on them. When fired, batteries were used to temporarily charge the runes to increase their power.

Such enchanted weapons are quite powerful. Although they are not as powerful as those high-powered magic, they have the advantage of being free of cost and can be used multiple times.

This is a product of the combination of rune technology and traditional technology.

When the battery is out of power, you can just charge it or replace it. However, this requires a high energy density for the battery, which conventional batteries cannot support. It was Qingshui who took out the graphene battery replicated from Luther's armor that was sufficient.

Shimizu even wondered whether he should temporarily select a trustworthy team within SHIELD to replace their rune equipment.

It’s just that this thing is quite troublesome to make - it’s not too troublesome for clear water, but it’s difficult for ordinary people to use.

Even in Kamar-Taki, only a few mages with high cultivation and strong mental power can master some runes and have the ability to make rune equipment.

The next research direction of the Qingshui Project is to try to combine runes and sealing techniques, divine machine techniques, puppetry and modern engineering to see if they can create more powerful puppets and magical tools.

But this is quite complicated, and Qingshui only has a preliminary idea now.

After stepping through the teleportation aperture and returning to Kamartaki, Qingshui found a quiet room, lit up the "real ambergris" produced in Kunlun, waved his hand to cast a spell, and activated the Eye of Water hanging around his neck.

The Soul Gem emitted little yellow lights, along with the calming ambergris, and blended into the clear water.

This thing contains the power of a real dragon, which can strengthen the spirit, strengthen willpower, and break illusions.

There is not much ambergris in Kamartaki, and it was all exchanged for clean water.

Because he discovered that this thing, combined with the mind gem, could speed up the refining of the extremely high-essence consciousness in the chakra.

The Qi training technique from Mo Men, accompanied by the breathing of clear water, transforms all the chakra into Qi, and bit by bit, refines and erodes the last bit of external consciousness remaining in this incarnation.

Because of the Mind Gem, the incarnation in the Marvel world is much faster than the original body and several other incarnations in clearing its own chakra and alien will.

As of now, Qingshui is about to complete the refining of this strand of alien chakra.

Two days later.

The light of the Mind Gem gradually faded.

Qingshui closed the Eye of Water, put away the remaining piece of ambergris, pushed open the door and walked out.

It is night now and the moon is high in the sky.

It’s just February, and Kamar-Taki in the Himalayas is protected by a magical barrier, so it’s not cold. However, one can’t help but feel a sense of coldness and loneliness here.

But Qingshui was very happy.

At least in the Marvel world, he has proven that the alien will contained in the chakra can be eliminated by the means he currently possesses.

Even though this requires the help of the Mind Gem, a treasure that can cure the disease, it at least shows that the method is feasible and the main body just needs to spend more time.

Considering that there should be no existence in the current ninja world that can threaten the life of the original body, and the lifespan of at least thousands or tens of thousands of years brought by the perfect demonized body, this problem can eventually be solved.

Just when Qingshui was about to open the portal to return to Water Manor to rest, the door of the yard was gently pushed open.

Is the king.

At this time, he was holding a takeaway bag, which contained skewers and a few cans of beer.

"Has your trouble been resolved?"

"Okay, you knew I was going to come out now? Did old man Gu Yi ask you to come here now?" Qingshui nodded at Wang and took out a skewer from the takeaway bag.

"It wasn't the Supreme Sorcerer who notified me. He just told me last night to wait here and come find him as soon as you finished your retreat. I waited from last night to tonight. I was hungry just now, so I bought some midnight snacks and continued to wait. Luckily I didn't miss it."

"Old man Gu Yi is looking for me? By the way, where did you buy this string? It tastes pretty good."

Qingshui took out two more skewers from Wang's takeaway bag.

"Linzi, Zhangjiadian, a veteran barbecue restaurant."

Wang looked at Qingshui's actions helplessly and replied.

"Would you like to go soon?"

If I don't go now, you'll have my midnight snack.

"Haha, sorry, I haven't eaten for two days, and my mouth has no taste. Don't worry, I'll treat you to a top-notch barbecue feast later. I'll be leaving now."

Qingshui patted Wang's shoulder, laughed, and took away two skewers.

Wang looked at Qingshui resentfully and held the takeaway bag in his arms.

"I've been waiting for you for most of the night, and I'm very hungry. Don't be like this. The Sorcerer Supreme is now in the New York Temple. Go there quickly. He will definitely not mind treating you to a midnight snack."

"Row!"

In front of the king, Qingshui opened a teleportation aperture and walked in.

Wang breathed a sigh of relief, took the takeaway bag out of his arms, and was about to take out a skewer and put it in his mouth when a small teleportation aperture quickly appeared in the air in front of him and grabbed several skewers from the bag.

"No? You are a billionaire, are you really going to compete with me for a few dozen dollars for barbecue?"

Wang was speechless as he looked at the bag where half of the skewers were missing.

"But other people's food tastes delicious."

As soon as the words were spoken, the portal closed.

"Ugh……"

Wang shook his head and returned to his room with the takeaway bag, intending to have a midnight snack while watching some TV series.

One minute later.

Another small teleportation aperture opened.

No, it’s not over yet, right?
This time it was a wrinkled old man's hand. Through the portal, one could clearly see an Eye of Agamotto hanging on the chest of the hand's owner.

king:……

"No, old man, you ate the skewers too. So, what's the matter? Why don't you tell me?"

In the rooftop garden of the New York Temple, Qingshui threw the bamboo sticks into the trash can and shaved his teeth with a toothpick while facing Gu Yidao.

"Tsk, it's a little bit not enough. How about you go buy a few more skewers and then I'll talk to you again? This matter has a lot to do with you!"

Furuichi stuffed a handful of grilled meat into his mouth and mumbled to Shimizu.

Has a lot to do with me?

Qingshui frowned slightly.

ten minutes later.

Or the small garden on the balcony of the New York Temple.

This time we moved to a larger table, which was filled with various stir-fried dishes and a bottle of Moutai.

All the things were delivered from Water Manor. There is a portal, so it is very convenient to serve the dishes.

"No, let's change this wine. I don't drink strong alcohol. What if a dimensional demon invades when I'm drunk?"

"Okay, that's just what I want."

Qingguo decisively put the Moutai back and replaced it with his favorite.

Coca Cola.

“Why Coca-Cola and not Pepsi?”

Gu Yi picked up a piece of spicy cabbage with chopsticks, took a sip of Coke, and burped.

"No, old man, you drink toilet cleaner too!"

“Why do I feel they are all the same?”

Gu Yi picked up another piece of stir-fried beef with chopsticks.

"Okay, okay, can you tell me now? What does it have to do with me?"

"Here! Look here, this is the hospital five kilometers away from here."

Gu Yi took out a magic mirror and placed it on the table.

A man in his thirties with a mustache was lying on a hospital bed with tubes inserted into his body, injecting some kind of medicine into his body.

"This guy is..."

"Strange, the next Sorcerer Supreme whom I have long chosen."

"So what is he doing now..."

"He had a car accident. I caused it."

Shimizu: …

"According to the original trajectory, he would have bid farewell to his identity as a world-renowned surgeon because of his disabled hands, and then embarked on a journey to find a cure for his hands. Finally, in Kamartaki, he was moved by the great, wise, and handsome Supreme Sorcerer Ancient One and became his disciple to learn magic. Finally, he inherited the position of Supreme Sorcerer after my death, and then you messed it up."

"Uh... because of the regeneration serum?"

"Correct."

"Then don't you have the Time Stone? Just look at the future again, choose a timeline that you think is feasible, and re-arrange another accident for him, right?"

"That's what I originally thought."

Gu Yi said with his head tilted.

Qingshui guided Gu Yi's next topic.

"but……"

"But I can't use the Time Stone now."

"what?"

"To be precise, it's no longer suitable for use. My body is dying. It's no longer suitable for expending a large amount of magic power and deducing so many futures. Even if I steal Dormammu's dark power, my body can't accommodate so much power.

I only have one last chance to attack with all my strength. It's okay if I take it easy, but once I use all my strength to activate the Infinity Stones, I will die very soon!"

"That's it..."

Qingshui touched his chin.

He was already thinking about when to hold the Supreme Sorcerer's First Seven Cups of Singing Competition.
