The Uchiha's Path to the Top, Starting from Konoha

Chapter 202 Encounter

Minako Uzumaki, who was prepared in advance, quickly directed her team to begin the rescue and treatment of the ninja soldiers and beasts.

The toad and the giant snake, whose injuries were less severe, returned directly to their respective little worlds.

"Your Excellency, we'll take our leave now."

Shima and Fukasaku transported the bodies of Gamahiro and Gamaken back to Mount Myōboku, and then had Gamabunta handle the funeral arrangements before walking hand in hand to Uchiha Takeoshi's side.

"Preserve the flesh and blood of the fallen; they will be needed later."

The abrupt and cryptic words made Shima and Fukasaku's expressions shift, but seeing that Uchiha Takehiro was unwilling to say more, the two toads didn't dare to ask any further questions and respectfully took their leave.

On the other side of Ryuchi Cave, the ordinary giant snakes were also sent back, leaving the two goddesses to guard one side with the White Snake Sage.

"Hikaru, Mito, Minako, I'm leaving the rest to you."

Uchiha Muan returned to his tent and looked at his system.

—Uchiha Takehiko

Job Levels: Elemental Mage - Fire, Thunder, Wind, Water, Earth (LV50) Yin-Yang Mage - Yin (LV10) Yin-Yang Mage - Yang (LV1);

Race Level: Dragonkin (Frost Dragon Bloodline LV10, True Dragon Bloodline LV10)

Skills: Super-tier magic; Dragon-type talent; Low-to-mid-tier primal magic;

Overall combat strength level: LV81 (Blazing Sun);

Uchiha Wu'an, whose strength had grown to the level of the Blazing Sun, closed his eyes in deep thought. His mind leaped into the sea of ​​magic, and his gaze pierced through the many obstacles, finally seeing the black and gold dragon coiled deep within!

The scales are as black as ink jade, shimmering with a metallic luster, like the most dazzling stars in the night sky.

Its body was huge and strong, its limbs were thick and powerful, and its claws were like sharp steel knives. With each breath, the entire sea of ​​magic rose and fell.

Its size is several times that of the Nine-Tails, and it is almost comparable to the Susanoo of Uchiha Muan's main body!

"A ninja from the ninja world!"

The black-gold dragon opened its eyes, its piercing gaze like the eyes of the heavens. Uchiha Wu'an, who was being stared at, felt the rejection and hostility of the entire sea of ​​magic.

"To merge with the sea of ​​demonic power, hoping to use it to reach the Six Paths, or even transcend them?"

Uchiha Wu'an coldly observed the Dragon Emperor's condition. The two Otsutsuki brothers had their souls injured by the Dragon Emperor, and the Dragon Emperor himself was in no better shape.

Already severely injured, he summoned people from another world, attempting to obtain a way to heal his body and even a chance to transcend.

However, his body was killed by the player before him, and his dragon soul had no choice but to fly into the Sea of ​​Magic. He unexpectedly discovered the wonders of the Sea of ​​Magic. After five hundred years of fusion, the Dragon Emperor almost completely mastered the core of the Sea of ​​Magic.

Therefore, the deeper the spiritual imprint of Uchiha Wu'an was, the easier it would be for the Dragon Emperor to discover Uchiha Wu'an's existence.

Meanwhile, Uchiha Takeo, who also coveted the Sea of ​​Magic, also noticed the Dragon Emperor's presence when the Dragon Emperor was watching the battlefield, which led to their current meeting.

"The Dragon Emperor?"

The figure of Uchiha Muan's true form appeared behind him, and the sea of ​​magic power immediately began to boil.

The magical power, now infused with a great deal of energy, erected a barrier, and with a wave of its hand, it sent its clone away.

Uchiha Muan watched with great interest the surging sea of ​​magic power. The Dragon Emperor's sky-covering dragon wings were projected onto the sky through the sea of ​​magic power!

"Get out of here, Uchiha Takeoshi!"

The Dragon Emperor roared, and as his demonic power surged, an immense pressure, as vast as a mountain and as deep as the sea, swept over him. The barrier surrounding Uchiha Wu'an trembled and crumbled into countless fragments with a series of cracking sounds.

Then, the 500-meter-tall warrior Susanoo stood between heaven and earth, like a reef on the seashore, calmly resisting the waves of the sea of ​​magic.

"You want to fight me now?"

Uchiha Wu'an chuckled and mocked, "Aren't you afraid that the very culprit who caused you to become like this will reap the benefits and completely rob you of your hope?"

"Hmph, the Otsutsuki brothers have no ambitions in this; only you would dare to glimpse my path to transcendence!"

The Dragon Emperor remained unmoved by Uchiha Wu'an's words. Most of the world's top experts could guess the path the other party would take.

Even mortal enemies can temporarily set aside their hatred in the face of transcendence.

Both sides are confident that they can elevate themselves faster than the other.

However, if the opponent is indeed one step ahead, the most intense attack must be launched to prevent the opponent's life from leaping!

After all, no one wants to wait until the other person has transcended their limitations and then be eliminated like a chick.

"Peeping doesn't guarantee you'll get it. Your Majesty the Dragon Emperor has cultivated the Sea of ​​Magic for hundreds of years; surely you have the confidence to back it up?"

Uchiha Muan manipulated Susanoo to cleave the vast sea of ​​demonic energy in two, the resulting shockwave tearing a rift in the sky.

The scattered energy surges erupted, triggering numerous terrifying natural disasters such as earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides, causing the alien city, which suffered undeserved calamities, to let out mournful cries.

At the same time, the black and gold dragon at the core of the Sea of ​​Magic was also revealed.

Uchiha Muan laughed and said, "Even Otsutsuki Hamura wasn't afraid of challenges from newcomers. As the ruler of the Magic Continent for millions of years, are you afraid?"

"Fear? It's just nipping danger in the bud."

The simple provocation failed to sway the Dragon Emperor; instead, he scoffed, "Besides, it's not just me who despises your existence; even Hagoromo and Hamura wish you were dead!"

"So what if you want to? The essence of this world is that the strong rule!"

The waves of the sea of ​​magic boiled beneath Susanoo's sword.

The energy, like a raging beast, burst forth from this small world, tearing apart the sky and shaking the earth.

Susanoo's sword sliced ​​through layers of magical barriers, carrying boundless pressure, and aimed directly at the heart of the black-gold dragon.

The Dragon Emperor's eyes gleamed beneath his black and gold scales as he coldly stared at the formidable enemy before him, showing no fear.

"Might makes right? Then let me see your strength!"

The Dragon Emperor roared, and his enormous dragon wings flapped, unleashing a monstrous storm of magical power.

A storm swept in, seemingly intent on engulfing Uchiha Muan. The figure of Musou Susanoo stood firm amidst the storm, his sword gleaming coldly as he met the destructive force head-on.

The sword clashed with the storm, unleashing a deafening roar.

Susanoo's sword, like a blade slicing through the void, tore the storm to shreds. The Dragon Emperor's figure appeared and disappeared within the storm, his dragon claws flashing out like lightning, heading straight for Uchiha Takeoshi's location.

Susanoo's shield rose instantly, blocking the fatal blow.

"Your strength is nothing special!"

Uchiha Wu'an sneered, and Susanoo's sword swung down again, carrying endless killing intent.

The Dragon Emperor narrowed his eyes, and his massive dragon tail swept across like an iron whip, meeting the deadly sword blade head-on.

The Dragon Emperor's figure tumbled in the air, his dragon wings slashing like blades, carrying sharp wind blades and boundless magical power, cutting Susanoo's armor into a thousand holes!
