Zhutian Panlong: They've all become gods, and they're only just joining the chat group.

As the divine tree branches surged towards him, Richard waved his hand and unleashed hundreds of wind blades, shattering the branches.

There was no need to hide. Even though Richard used spacetime to isolate himself and the others, he still couldn't cut off Kaguya's sense of chakra.

Seeing that the descent of the Divine Tree Realm was thwarted, Kaguya cast a glance her way.

She quickly locked onto Richard, a guy without chakra, who had a similar aura to the native deity who fought her a thousand years ago.

As for Tsunade and her disciples behind him, they were completely ignored.

Those below the Six Paths level are indeed not a threat to her, especially ninjas who use chakra; they can hardly harm her, the progenitor of chakra. Using chakra attacks on her only replenishes her energy; she absorbs as much as comes.

"Uh, can you pretend you didn't see us? You do your thing, we won't bother you." Richard tried to struggle; he didn't really want to fight. Kaguya might be bad in actual combat, but her strength was undeniable, and fighting her could easily result in defeat.

"Ha, gods? Die, you wretch!" Kaguya didn't give him a chance to speak and unleashed the Eighty Divine Vacuum Strike.

A flurry of fist strikes swept across the sky. Richard drew his Qinglin Sword; though he found it troublesome, he wasn't one to back down. Since his opponent had made a move, he naturally couldn't back down.

First, he sent Tsunade and her apprentice away to avoid having to worry about other things.

With another slash, he cleared away the fist shadows in front of him. The sword energy still had some strength left, pouring towards Kaguya.

Kaguya is indeed quite weak in actual combat. Her move, Eighty Gods Aerial Strike, is a wide-range crowd control ultimate move, but it's not very effective against strong single enemies.

Richard only cleaned up around himself and ignored the rest.

The entire area within a thousand miles was plowed by the shadow of the fist; with just this one move, the Land of Rain was gone.

At this moment, Kaguya realized that she had used the wrong move. After casually scattering Richard's sword energy, she switched to using the All-Killing Ashes, an extremely powerful killing move with an instant death effect. Richard didn't know if his mid-level material defense artifact could withstand this move, but he didn't want to try it.

He unleashed his newly comprehended technique, Transform into Wind. This was a technique that one could naturally comprehend after fusing the Wind Walk Technique and the element of wind to a certain degree; his body transformed into the wind, merging into the natural wind. In the Panlong World, this wasn't a very useful technique. God-level powerhouses all possessed divine domains, which could easily isolate them from external elements, thus negating the effect of Transform into Wind.

But in this open battlefield, it's perfectly adequate to deal with Kaguya's deadly moves.

After dodging the deadly move of "Shared Ashes," Richard was not prepared to be passively attacked. He immediately unleashed his strongest attack to date, a move he named "Infernal Affairs."

It combines the elements of wind, the art of wind movement, and the mysteries of speed and slowness, further enhanced by the spatial laws of sealing, suppressing, and cutting. It is truly a deadly move.

In addition, there's the guaranteed hit enchantment added to the Qinglin Sword.

Kaguya had no choice but to take the blow head-on.

Kaguya sensed the threat of death from the sword light and immediately used Yomotsu Hirasaka to leap hundreds or even thousands of miles away, but the sword light followed her relentlessly.

She had no choice but to leave again, using Yomotsu Hirasaka multiple times to move between several locations.

Finally, he used the Heavenly Control Technique to enter his own primordial space, but the sword light still tore through the space and arrived.

Driven to desperation, Kaguya transformed into a giant rabbit, her body swelling as she unleashed a massive black Truth-Seeking Ball towards the sword light.

The moment the sword light collided with the enormous Truth-Seeking Ball, the world fell silent, everything lost its color, and only a vast expanse of white light remained.

Kaguya's six smaller spaces were instantly destroyed. The aftershocks of the collision then spread throughout the ninja world, causing a cataclysmic earthquake.

In an instant, mountains collapsed, tsunamis surged, and volcanoes erupted, as if the end of the world had arrived.

Richard, however, didn't care about any of that. He immediately took out his most treasured mid-level artifact, the longbow.

They beat the dog when it was down, and with three arrows in quick succession, they killed Kaguya.

Of course, Kaguya herself is immortal; as long as the chakra of the ninja world exists, she will not die.

Richard never intended to kill her; a living Kaguya was far more valuable than a dead one.

Using the three divine arrows as a base, he casually sealed Kaguya away.

Then he headed in the other direction. The battle with Kaguya had just unearthed a large fish.

No matter how well Otsutsuki Isshiki hid, he had to reveal some of his strength to protect himself under that devastating attack. That's how Richard caught him off guard.

Otsutsuki Isshiki was severely injured by Kaguya a thousand years ago, barely surviving, but his strength was greatly reduced, far inferior to Kaguya's normal strength.

Richard nearly killed this guy with a full-force sword strike, so he wasn't going to be polite and directly took the underdeveloped divine tree from the guy's possession.

Then he searched the soul to obtain the guy's memories. Hiss, there's even a memory protection mechanism. Well, the Otsutsuki clan wouldn't be without such methods. He originally wanted to investigate the Otsutsuki clan's intelligence, but was blocked by the memory protection.

He then filtered out all irrelevant memories and instead searched for the knowledge and secret techniques he could find.

As a cosmic being that has survived for thousands of years, even though some of his memories were top-secret information sealed by the Otsutsuki clan, Richard still gained a great deal from them. Yin-Yang Release, space-time techniques, basic knowledge of the Otsutsuki clan, understanding of space-time, understanding of the starry sky, understanding of energy, the cultivation of the Ten-Tails, chakra authority, interstellar travel, Yin-Yang Release creation, and so on, directly making Richard rich overnight.

After scavenging his memories, he fed the entire thing to the divine tree, instantly restoring the entire tree to normal.

He then extracted most of Kaguya's chakra to feed his newly acquired divine tree.

Then she didn't even spare Kaguya's memories. Although she was just a branch family member and her education was far less complete than that of the main family, Isshiki, she still had her own unique insights. Although the techniques she developed were average in terms of combat, the ideas behind them were not useless.

Only after doing all this did they take the half-dead Kaguya to find the Sage of Six Paths.

Meanwhile, the Sage of Six Paths was still wondering who this new person fighting Kaguya was. Was it someone from the Otsutsuki clan?

The fact that just anyone sent could fight my mother so fiercely, almost destroying the entire ninja world, speaks volumes about the Ōtsutsuki clan, which my mother fears and even dreads.

Even the Sage of Six Paths couldn't actually monitor the ninja world in real time. He mostly relied on the gathering of chakra throughout the ninja world to vaguely sense the situation.

For example, just now, when the Ten-Tails was resurrected, the chakra energy it gathered was more than all the other places in the entire ninja world combined, so he could naturally sense it.

Although Isshiki Otsutsuki possessed a great deal of chakra, it was his private property and had nothing to do with him and his mother, nor with their divine tree. Therefore, the Sage of Six Paths could not sense it.

Now, he sensed that most of Kaguya's chakra was gone? His mother seemed to have been defeated? Just as he was about to send Naruto and Sasuke to check on the situation, Richard delivered himself right to his doorstep.

Yes, Richard did want the Ten-Tails and her Rinne Sharingan with nine tomoe from Kaguya. But he wanted the Sage of Six Paths' Yin-Yang Release even more.

If the Otsutsuki clan represents the orthodox academic school, then the Sage of Six Paths is a self-taught genius.

This guy has been tinkering in the Pure Land alone for over a thousand years. He's quite skilled in Yin-Yang Escape and sealing techniques. Richard wants to try and communicate with him.
