Chapter 154 Six Paths Scepter - Moonlit Sword

As the coffin was lowered, Ning Yuan pressed his hands to the ground to ensure the body remained alive: "Iceberg."

The next second, a huge iceberg rose from the ground, filling half of the room completely.

"You can use Ice Release?" Black Zetsu stared in disbelief. "Why didn't you use it during the fight?"

"Yes, I will!" Ning Yuan nodded matter-of-factly, but his actions were not yet finished.

Runes spread from his hand toward the iceberg, eventually covering a large area of ​​the iceberg and even the wall behind it, before gradually disappearing beneath the iceberg.

"You even know sealing techniques!" Black Zetsu was completely speechless. How come it seems like he knows everything?

The crucial point is that this person is only seven years old!

"As long as you're smart and learn quickly, it's perfectly normal for you to learn in a year what others learn in decades!" Ning Yuan replied casually.

"Really?!" Black Zetsu looked at him with a "you don't believe me" expression. "It's one thing that you learn things quickly, but does Ice Release have anything to do with learning speed?"

"No, but with the knowledge, synthesizing a bloodline limit isn't really that difficult!" Ning Yuan said.

"Synthesizing a bloodline limit isn't difficult?" Black Zetsu's eyes widened, and he suddenly began to doubt whether his thousand-year lifespan was real.

Why have I never heard of bloodline limits not being difficult?

"Have you ever heard of methodology?" Ning Yuan asked.

Hei Jue shook his head: "Never heard of it!"

"Methodology is the methodology of scientific practice, a way of studying scientific laws. In short, it means first observing natural phenomena, then summarizing certain laws based on natural phenomena, and then summarizing a set of scientific theories based on these laws. With scientific theories, we can use them to guide us in creating man-made phenomena!" Ning Yuan said.

"Bloodline Limit, is it related to this?" Black Zetsu asked.

"That's right!" Ning Yuan nodded. "We studied several bloodline limits, including Boil Release, Lava Release, Scorch Release, and Penetration Release, and then summarized their patterns!"

"Boiling Release is formed by the fusion of Fire Release and Water Release. In nature, fire heating water can also form Boiling Release. So the principle of fusing Fire Release and Water Release is clear: Fire Release is used to heat Water Release. Therefore, we need to develop the high-temperature attribute change of Fire Release and the evaporation attribute change of Water Release, and then fuse them to finally create Boiling Release!"

"The same applies to Ice Release. Water freezes into ice when it loses temperature, and Ice Release is a fusion of Water and Wind attributes. The roles of these two attributes are quite clear: water provides the medium, and wind conducts the heat. When the two are combined, Ice Release is born!"

Black Zetsu gaped open. Was it really that simple?

Ning Yuan shrugged: "This is science, and it's the weapon I planned to use against the enemies in the stars before I learned that the Goddess of Rabbit could be resurrected!"

"Science?" Black Zetsu asked blankly, "I admit that what you call science has some merit, but it's just a bloodline limit. Can it really be useful?"

"This is just a bloodline limit now, but that might not be the case in the future!" Ning Yuan said. "Scientific progress, like cultivation, is endless!"

"Although we have developed a method for fusing bloodline limits, it is only applicable to geniuses. Geniuses must experiment bit by bit using exhaustive methods. We are currently researching the essence of chakra, with the aim of using numbers to precisely quantify various chakra attributes. In the future, everyone will be able to fuse bloodline limits, and everyone will be able to fuse bloodline elimination!"

"Is it possible?" Black Zetsu asked with curiosity. He couldn't imagine what it would be like for an ordinary person to be eliminated using bloodstains.

"I don't know, we have too few talents right now, so we're still in the planning stage!" Ning Yuan shrugged. The Ning Organization has only been established for two years. Education has been popularized in Mingchuan Town for two years, but some cities that joined the Ning Organization later started popularizing education much later, maybe less than a month ago.

Even for traditional scientific geniuses, two years is far from the time to emerge from seclusion.

"This seal can draw energy from nature and continuously transform it into ice energy, preventing the ice from melting. Plus, this is underground, where the temperature is already low. This coffin should last for at least a thousand years!" Ning Yuan clapped his hands: "Mission accomplished!"

"Are you planning to revive Madara later?"

"He should be resurrected!" Ning Yuan said. "When the golden age arrives, let Mr. Ban be resurrected to see it for himself. This is his lifelong wish!"

Hei Jue nodded thoughtfully.

He didn't care whether Ban had any unfulfilled wishes; he only cared about his mother.

The fact that Ning Yuan could value a dead person so much is enough to prove that he is a very sentimental person.

He can't be lying to me, he really will resurrect my mother!

Hei Jue made up his mind, and his gaze toward the boy in front of him became even more determined.

Little did he know, while he treated Ning Yuan as his boss, Ning Yuan actually wanted him to be his stepfather.

After leaving the main hall, Ning Yuan strolled over to the adjacent treasure room.

Of course, this room doesn't actually have a name; it's just filled with all sorts of objects.

The first thing you see when you enter is a huge gourd-shaped fan hanging on the wall.

"This fan is called the Uchiha Fan, and it has the ability to deflect ninjutsu!" Black Zetsu explained.

"Reflecting ninjutsu? Can it reflect any kind of ninjutsu?" Ning Yuan asked curiously.

"High-level Water Release and Earth Release won't work!" Black Zetsu said. "Uchiha fans ultimately reflect chakra, but some people's Water Release techniques are so refined that they're practically indistinguishable from real water, so of course they can't reflect it!"

Ning Yuan nodded, understanding.

Tobirama now has another reason to practice Water Release techniques.

Hanging next to the Uchiha fan was a scepter about two meters long with a notched crescent moon at the top. It was grayish-brown in color and looked like it was made of some kind of wood.

It looks like a scepter, but it's actually a bit like the slingshot that Usopp uses that can hold six rubber bands.

The scepter does indeed have a forked top, and it can even be connected with a rubber band.

"What is this?" Ning Yuan asked, pointing to the scepter.

"This is the Six Paths Scepter, a weapon once used by the Sage of Six Paths!" Black Zetsu gritted his teeth as soon as he mentioned his enemy, even though he already knew that what happened back then might have been a misunderstanding.

"Oh?" Ning Yuan was a little confused. I thought the Six Paths Scepter was formed by itself after entering the Six Paths Mode. So there is such a divine artifact?

"What's the use of this scepter?" Ning Yuan asked.

"First, it's extremely hard; no sword or blade can cut through it!" Black Zetsu said. "Second, it can conduct chakra, even remotely, and it can absorb the chakra back into its body after conducting it."

"Oh?" Ning Yuan's eyes lit up. He put it into his body? Isn't this a magic weapon?

"And thirdly, this scepter can be used to unleash ninjutsu!"

"How do we release it?" Ning Yuan asked.

"Ordinary people use their mouths, hands, or feet to unleash ninjutsu!" Black Zetsu said. "With this staff, you can first form hand seals, then channel chakra into the staff, and then release the ninjutsu from it!"

"There's such a thing?" Ning Yuan was taken aback, but immediately came up with many other uses for the scepter.

For example, I can create a clone holding a scepter and stand in front of my opponent. It may seem like I'm performing hand seals to release a ninjutsu, but in reality, the ninjutsu is released by the scepter.

Wouldn't that be a pleasant surprise for the enemy?

He took the scepter off the wall and tested it.

There are indeed chakra pathways within the scepter, and these pathways are even more extensive than Ningyuan's meridians, which he cultivated for two years using the Phoenix Lineage Chart.

Release ninjutsu.

To prevent damage to other objects, Ning Yuan released a minor lightning release technique while simultaneously activating his Byakugan to observe the flow of chakra within the scepter.

Chakra instantly spread from the scepter to the top, then gathered at the center of the scepter through the six branches, forming a bolt of lightning.

With a "whoosh!" the lightning bolt shot out.

"Is this a scepter? It's a magic staff!" Ning Yuan exclaimed.

Well, how should I put it?

It is indeed strong, but it seems to be of little use to experts, who can summon whatever they want with a simple clap of their hands.

This scepter is definitely not weak, but it's not that strong either.

In short, it's still quite useful for Jonin and Kage-level ninjas, but it's somewhat useless for Super Kage-level ninjas, and even less useful for Six Paths-level ninjas.

However, this only refers to its practicality. If we're talking about showing off, this scepter scores very high.

Because it can transform a ninja into a mage.

Unleashing magic in a world full of ninjas, how cool is that!

Several names of people who would be suitable to use this scepter flashed through Ning Yuan's mind in an instant.

Minato, Orochimaru, and Hiruzen Sarutobi.

This scepter is very hard, making it suitable for close combat and compensating for physical weaknesses. Therefore, it is suitable for both those who are strong in close combat and those who are physically weak.

This scepter can be used to unleash ninjutsu, so naturally it is more suitable for someone who knows more ninjutsu.

The original Minato had few ninjutsu techniques, but this version of Minato has quite a few, so this scepter is also very suitable for Minato.

Although it is a scepter, it is still shaped like a stick overall, and Hiruzen Sarutobi is not only a ninjutsu expert, but also skilled in stick techniques.

After much thought, this scepter actually suits Hiruzen Sarutobi quite well.

But giving it to Sarutobi would be aiding the enemy, so it's definitely not an option.

"Give it to Snake Uncle." After thinking it over, Ning Yuan still felt that Snake Uncle was more suitable.

Because Snake is a rather eccentric person, a scepter is just right for him.

Minato's fighting style doesn't quite match large weapons; if it were a dagger, it would definitely be given to Minato.

"Even Orochimaru has a weapon, so Tsunade can't not give one!" Ning Yuan looked at the Uchiha fan. This one is perfect. He'll paint it green and change the name to Thousand Hands Fan. Tsunade will definitely like it.

As for Ning Yuan himself.

He looked toward the side of the scepter.

The third weapon is hanging here.

In reality, there were only three treasures hanging on the wall; the rest were all placed on the ground.

The meaning is quite clear: there are only three true treasures. The rest would certainly be treasures to ordinary people, but to Madara, they are basically trash.

This is a Han Dynasty sword!

Indeed, the hilt, guard, and scabbard all clearly indicate that this is a Han Dynasty sword.

Ning Yuan took it off the wall and pulled it out.

A bluish-purple halo flashed across the sword's blade, beneath which lay a bluish-green sword blade, its condition seemingly untouched by rust, despite having been stored for an unknown period of time.

Upon further counting, the sword actually has eight sides.

This is an eight-sided Han sword!

However, Ning Yuan did not think this was the work of any previous transmigrator. The ninja world itself had many traces of the previous life, such as Buddhism, Chinese characters, Chinese surnames, Chinese-style architecture, clothing, and so on.

What's so strange about the appearance of an eight-sided Han sword?

"This sword is called Uzuki!" The guide appeared noticeably slower than the previous two, and Ning Yuan even sensed a different kind of emotion emanating from Hei Jue.

"Rabbit month." Ning Yuan asked curiously, "Is it related to the goddess of Rabbit?"

Otherwise, it can't possibly be related to Uzuki Yugao, right?

"Yes!" Zetsu nodded. "This sword was forged by the Goddess of the Rabbit herself and given to the young Sage of Six Paths!"

Ning Yuan paused for a moment, then drew his sword completely.

The sword is three feet three inches long and weighs 8.6 kg. It is generally blue-green in color, and a scene of a goddess chasing the moon is engraved at the end of the sword. If Ning Yuan did not know the goddess of the rabbit, he would probably think it was Chang'e.

On the hilt of the sword, two Chinese characters are engraved: Mao Yue (卯月).

"This sword is extremely resilient and incredibly sharp. The Sage of Six Paths used it for over ten years, chopping trees, splitting firewood, slaughtering sheep and cattle, and fighting people, without suffering the slightest damage!" Black Zetsu explained. "Furthermore, after chakra is infused into this sword, it can change size according to one's will, and it can also be stored within the body like the Six Paths Staff."

It's quite normal for swords to change size in the ninja world; Orochimaru created such a sword, called the Grass Chop Sword.

Moreover, it wasn't the only one; Orochimaru made many, meaning he mastered the technology to mass-produce Ruyi weapons.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the sword made by the goddess of the rabbit has such a function.

However, it possesses the ability to control things and can also absorb them into its body.

This sword is extremely similar to magical artifacts from the cultivation world.

The only thing it lacks is the ability to bind someone to its master by dripping blood.

This feature is actually not difficult to add; Ningyuan's Curse Seal, which he developed two years ago, already had an encryption function.

"Do you know how these treasures were forged?" Ning Yuan asked curiously. "I remember the Sage of Six Paths left behind some kind of Seven Star Sword and gourd, how did he forge these things?"

"I wouldn't know about that!" Black Zetsu shook his head. "Knowing even one function is good enough; how could I dare approach it! But it's definitely something from my mother!"

Ning Yuan nodded; that was what he thought too.

The toads didn't seem to have any talent for weapon crafting, so the Sage of Six Paths definitely didn't learn weapon crafting from the toads.

The fact that Hagoromo Otsutsuki can forge weapons and Hamura Otsutsuki can make puppets must be due to their family traditions.

The Otsutsuki clan roams the universe, reaping the benefits of civilizations everywhere; it's perfectly normal for them to have some possessions.

Even if it's rumored that Kaguya Otsutsuki wasn't a princess at all, but just a maid, well...

A college graduate in China earning a meager monthly salary of 3,000 yuan would be considered a highly skilled individual in Africa or ancient times.

Having come from a prestigious high school, the things one is exposed to and hears are beyond the imagination of ordinary civilized people.

Thinking of this, Ning Yuan's lips curled into a smile. Very good, another reason to save Kaguya Otsutsuki.

"This sword is mine!"
