Naruto: Forced to activate Infinite Tsukuyomi in order to return home

"Backlash of pupil power?"

"Go on..."

Madara Uchiha remained indifferent, but what was somewhat comforting was that his eyes, when looking at Minato and the others, were no longer filled with bloodthirsty killing intent!

Seeing this, Fengtian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. His gaze met and collided with Uchiha Madara's in the air, and then he slowly spoke:

"The two times my pupil power increased, the backlash came like a tidal wave, almost swallowing me whole and leaving me teetering on the brink of life and death several times..."

His words carried an indescribable heaviness, as if he were recalling a past event he was unwilling to mention.

"However, when I think back carefully, when I first devoured the Three-Tailed and One-Tailed, the power, though strong, did not bring any backlash..."

"At that time, my heart was pure, my hands were unstained with blood, and I had no shame."

Fengtian's eyes deepened, as if he had traveled through time and returned to that distant past.

"Until I devoured the Two-Tails and the Eight-Tails, I broke my vow of not killing and killed the renowned Third Raikage..."

His voice was low and tinged with regret:

"At that moment, I felt as if I had touched some kind of taboo. From then on, the backlash followed me like a shadow, especially when I was in Takigakure, where I suffered an unprecedented blow."

"What's more, during that battle to seize the Seven-Tails, my hands were stained with the blood of innocent ninjas..."

Fengtian's eyes became vacant, as if that memory was too heavy for him to bear:

"This also directly led to an unprecedentedly severe backlash in my battle with Orochimaru."

"That time, I was almost on the verge of death; life and death hung in the balance."

At this point, Fengtian's tone became firm, as if he were making some important decision:

"I'm beginning to realize that the backlash from this enhanced eye power might not just be related to the increase in eye power itself, but also closely connected to the killing intent in my heart and the murders I've committed..."

"Every killing adds weight to this double-edged sword, and eventually, the backlash binds me tightly."

Fengtian's words carried a hint of heaviness, yet also a sense of relief.

It was as if he was confessing everything to Madara Uchiha, or as if he was redeeming himself, revealing his deepest secrets and pain to the other party without reservation.

Madara Uchiha frowned slightly. He had never imagined that the backlash from his eye power would be so deeply connected to the user's state of mind.

"You mean, your eye power, after being stained with too much blood, has begun to punish you in some form?"

His voice was cold, yet it revealed a hint of curiosity.

"That's exactly right."

Fengtian nodded and continued:

"In my understanding, someone like me who wields the most mysterious 'power of cause and effect' may also carry some kind of law or will, which constrains the user's behavior."

"When I couldn't resist the influence of the [will to kill] in my heart and began to kill indiscriminately, that power began to backfire, trying to correct my path."

"interesting."

Madara Uchiha sneered, but the light in his eyes was more complex:

"So what are your plans? Will you continue down this path until you are completely consumed, or will you find a way to balance your power and your mind?"

Fengtian remained silent for a moment, seemingly weighing something, before finally taking a deep breath and saying:

"I choose the latter..."

"Holding the power of cause and effect is not a good thing, and as my eye power strengthens, that killing intent will have an increasingly greater impact on me..."

"I…."

"I must suppress the killing intent within me! To achieve my goal, I absolutely cannot allow this backlash to consume me!"

It wasn't until this moment that Fengtian finally realized why he had been so "saintly" at the very beginning of this cycle of reincarnation!

Everything is based on the experiences accumulated in those previous cycles of reincarnation!

These experiences are subtly influencing Fengtian's own thoughts during this cycle of reincarnation, gradually reducing the amount of blood he may spill!

That's why he initially became so "saintly".

Madara Uchiha listened quietly to Fengtian's determination, a playful smile playing on his lips.

"Suppressing the urge to kill is no easy task..."

"However, since you are so aware of this, I can point you in the right direction."

"A clear path?"

Fengtian was slightly taken aback, then a hint of anticipation flashed in his eyes.

"That's right, an opportunity that can both enhance your strength and help you suppress your killing intent."

Madara Uchiha slowly stood up, his thoughts drifting into the distance, the image of that man gradually appearing in his mind.

After a moment, Madara Uchiha spoke again, his voice flowing slowly:

"[Sage Mode]..."

"I've never really thought much of that thing, but it seems quite suitable for you right now..."

Upon hearing this, Fengtian unconsciously rested his chin on his hand and fell into deep thought.

Madara Uchiha is right. As things stand, Sage Mode is indeed the most suitable power for him to cultivate!

The essence of the "Immortal Mode" lies in absorbing and utilizing the natural energy between heaven and earth.

During the absorption process, one must remain absolutely still, allowing the mind to calm down and carefully perceive.

This not only trains and enhances willpower, but also greatly weakens the erosion and influence of the Killing Will on him in the [Sage Mode] state.

However, Fengtian doesn't have much time for cultivation right now...

"[Sage Mode], huh? That's a pretty good idea..."

Fengtian said calmly, and soon he made up his mind.

With a spatial distortion, Fengtian slowly stepped into the [Divine Might Space].

Immediately afterwards, with a thought, a huge roulette wheel appeared in front of him.

This is the power-extraction wheel obtained from absorbing the Seven-Tails' chakra. Fengtian sealed it into his [Kamui Space] through special means for long-term preservation.

The following are all the abilities I have acquired so far:

Three-Tails Chakra: Flying Thunder God Technique

One-Tailed Chakra: Kamui

Two-Tails Chakra: Eight Gates

Eight-Tails Chakra: ? ? ?

"Hopefully, I'll get it on my first try..."

Fengtian said in a deep voice, then slowly reached out and gently fiddled with the roulette wheel in front of him.

Every subtle movement revealed his inner tension and anticipation.

The roulette wheel slowly began to spin, and each movement of the pointer seemed to tug at Fengtian's heartstrings. The rhythm and the sound of the roulette wheel spinning together created a symphony of destiny.

An indescribable sense of oppression filled the air, as if time itself had frozen at that moment.

He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, as if praying for the best possible outcome from his unknown fate.

Finally, the roulette wheel stopped spinning, and the pointer steadily pointed to an unknown area.

"This is…."
