Jiraiya waved his sleeve, and a breeze swept by, blowing away the dust on the stone tablet. Then, like a toad, he squatted in front of the stone tablet, not only staring at it from beginning to end, but also occasionally reaching out his fingers to gently stroke it, and sometimes nodding thoughtfully.

"As expected, without the Sharingan, it's impossible to read the contents."

Just when Hinata Zechen thought the other party had really understood the contents, Jiraiya dusted himself off, stood up, and said something that left Hinata Zechen speechless.

Roll your eyes, open!

As the veins around his eyes bulged, Hyuga Zechen activated his Byakugan, only to find that a special layer of chakra still remained on the stone tablet, preventing him from seeing the contents of the tablet.

If the Byakugan doesn't work, how about the Tenseigan?

Hinata Zetsu was not discouraged. His eyes flashed with azure light as he activated the Tenseigan.

it works!

The words that were just moments ago indistinct gradually became clear under the gaze of the Reincarnation Eye.

Chapter 184 Black Zetsu's Decision

To my esteemed descendants, the pride of the Uchiha clan:

My name is Hagoromo Otsutsuki, also known as the Sage of Six Paths.

If you are able to read this stele, you must have awakened a mysterious power. I will now teach you how to use this power.

The power you have awakened is called the Sharingan, which has one to three black tomoe. If you wish to further enhance it, you can awaken each one one by one using the following methods...

The text and tone on the stone tablet were closer to classical Chinese, and the reading order was from right to left and from top to bottom, which made Hinata Sawa's reading speed quite slow, and he had to constantly translate it into modern language.

For the Uchiha clan, born from the bloodline of Indra, the Sage of Six Paths pointed out a clear path to becoming stronger, detailing how to awaken the Sharingan, how to awaken the three-tomoe Sharingan to the Mangekyou Sharingan, and later the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

Most importantly, the last part of the stone tablet teaches the Uchiha clan members in great detail how to awaken the Rinnegan, how to summon the Gedo Mazo, how to seal the nine tailed beasts in order to revive the Ten-Tails, how to become the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki, and how to cast the Infinite Tsukuyomi. All these details are described one by one.

Most importantly, in these last few paragraphs, Hyuga Sawatatsu clearly sensed the residual power of the Yin-Yang Release technique.

If I'm not mistaken, the descriptions, including the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, were likely inscribed on the stone tablet by the Sage of Six Paths himself. The details regarding awakening the Rinnegan and what follows were altered by Black Zetsu.

As the father of Indra and Ashura, the Sage of Six Paths passed on the Ninjutsu to Ashura, but that was because Ashura's personality was more suited to inheriting the Ninjutsu. His love for his two children was undoubtedly impartial. He would never have instigated a descendant of the Uchiha clan to steal the Senju clan's Sage Body to awaken the Rinnegan, let alone incite others to activate the Infinite Tsukuyomi to make the ninja world a beautiful world of only love and peace.

Two forces repel each other, yet combine to form one, thus creating the myriad phenomena of the universe.

This sentence marks the beginning of Black Zetsu's subtle maneuvers.

It must be said that Black Zetsu's words were full of seduction, no wonder Madara Uchiha believed them without a doubt and followed Black Zetsu's guidance step by step down the road of no return.

"how?"

It wasn't until Jiraiya couldn't hold back any longer and spoke up, waking Hyuga Sawatatsu from his immersion in the contents of the stone tablet, that the Tenseigan regained its vitality.

"This stone tablet was indeed overlooked by the Sage of Six Paths. However, I speculate that the latter half of the content has most likely been altered. If the Eye of the Moon Project is truly launched, it will not only cause all living beings in the world to fall under illusion control, but may even bring about catastrophic consequences."

Hinata Sawatatsu took out paper and pen and copied down all the contents of the stone tablet, dividing it into two parts.

While Jiraiya was reading, Hyuga Zetsu took out a scroll, unfurled it, and white mist rose up, summoning a human puppet.

The puppet's tightly closed right eye slowly opened, revealing a scarlet three-tomoe Sharingan, which was none other than the Shisui Mangekyou Sharingan that Hyuga Zetsu had obtained from Danzo.

As expected, compared to the Tenseigan which can read all the contents without any obstacles, the Sharingan in different states sees different contents on the Uchiha stone tablet.

One can only say that he truly deserves to be called the Sage of Six Paths; he actually possesses such abilities.

-----------------

"You look quite disheveled, Obito."

On a cliff, a giant pitcher plant emerged, revealing only half of Black Zetsu's body.

"Didn't you say that there are no ninjutsu in the entire ninja world that can damage the Ten-Tails' body?"

Despite Black Zetsu's sarcastic tone, Obito Uchiha, sitting on the edge of the cliff, didn't turn around and coldly replied.

As the crimson light flashed across his Sharingan, the scene of Hyuga Sawatatsu using the All-Killing Ash Bones technique to hit the Gedo Mazo on the opposite cliff face was immediately and clearly replayed in Black Zetsu's eyes.

That is, the mutual slaughter of ashes?

Black Zetsu was initially unimpressed when he saw Hyuga Zetsu use the Corpse Bone Pulse. However, when he saw the Gedo Mazo, which was as hard as a rock, turn to ashes under the power of the All-Killing Ash Bones, Black Zetsu showed an unusually tense expression. He even stretched his body closer to the light screen, not wanting to miss any detail.

There's no mistake. Although I only gained a little bit of the power of the All-Killing Ash Bones, only a ninjutsu of the Bloodline Limit level can damage the Outer Path Demon Statue.

Most importantly, when Black Zetsu saw the two horns on Hyuga Zetsu's forehead, his yellow, round pupils contracted sharply.

As a product of Kaguya Otsutsuki's will, no one knows better than Black Zetsu that only when the Otsutsuki clan's bloodline within one's body reaches a certain concentration will these iconic double horns appear.

Impossible. Although the Hyuga clan are descendants of Hamura Otsutsuki, the purity of their bloodline has long been polluted by the natives of the ninja world, making it impossible for their bloodline to revert to its ancestral form.

Is it that Hamura Otsutsuki left some method on the moon; or is it that Hagoromo Otsutsuki's lingering spirit sensed my existence and secretly interfered with the development of the ninja world?

Or perhaps, Hyuga Zetsu secretly collected the tailed beast's chakra and became the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki before Uchiha Obito?

No, if that's the case, even space-time ninjutsu wouldn't be able to contend with the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.

Even a brief glimpse of the battle left Black Zetsu in a state of turmoil, casting a huge shadow over the smooth progress of the Eye of the Moon Plan.

After a thousand years of planning, Black Zetsu has seen the dawn of Kaguya's resurrection. Is it going to be destroyed because of Hyuga Sawatatsu?

“Obito, listen to me. Hyuga Sawatatsu is too dangerous. We must temporarily halt the operation to retrieve the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails, and concentrate the strength of the entire Akatsuki organization to eliminate this variable that is hindering the Eye of the Moon Plan.”

It wasn't until the image on the stone wall disappeared for quite some time that Black Zetsu slowly turned around and looked at Uchiha Obito with utmost seriousness.

"What exactly is that power?"

Obito Uchiha frowned; this was the first time he had ever seen such a human-like change in expression on Black Zetsu's face.

"All-Killing Ash Bones, a power rumored to surpass Bloodline Limits and Bloodline Tota. Apart from the Sage of Six Paths, no other ninja has ever been able to wield this power."

Black Zetsu realized that he had lost his composure, and forced himself to adjust his emotions, regaining his calm and collected demeanor.

He knew in his heart that the All-Killing Ash Bones was a bloodline limit unique to its mother, Kaguya Otsutsuki, but in order to conceal Kaguya's existence, he could only attribute it to the Sage of Six Paths.

Together, we will kill the ashes?

Those who are hit will surely die?

To further persuade Obito, Black Zetsu recounted the characteristics of the Ashen Bones from his memories, repeatedly emphasizing the power of the Bloodline Limit.

The only thing that worries Black Zetsu is whether Hyuga Zetsu possesses any other bloodline limit abilities besides the All-Killing Ash Bones that has already been revealed.

"Hyuga Zetsu has mastered the space-time ninjutsu Flying Thunder God. If he wants to leave, no one can stop him."

Obito was tempted by Black Zetsu's suggestion, but he was worried about the difficulty of dealing with space-time ninjutsu.

"In this world, there are always people you care about. The Fourth Hokage was like that back then, and so is Hyuga Sawatatsu now."

Black Zetsu's words made Obito's eyes light up, and he immediately made up his mind.

Chapter 185 Tian Xin Shenji

Deep in the mountains, where thick white fog blankets the landscape, visibility is less than ten feet, with only a winding path leading to an unknown end.

rustling sounds...

A very light footstep broke the silence, it was Hyuga Zechen.

The mist here contains a special kind of chakra; even with the Byakugan activated, the field of vision is compressed to less than one-tenth of its original size…

Hinata Zechen's eyes flashed, the veins around his eyes disappeared, and he gave up trying to continue spying on his surroundings.

Now, there are very few places in the entire ninja world that Hyuga Zetsu can be wary of, but Ryuchi Cave, which he is about to enter, is definitely one of them.

As one of the three sacred sites for the inheritance of immortal arts, Ryuchi Cave lies between reality and illusion. Apart from the large number of snakes living inside, only those who are determined to seek power will risk their lives to set foot here.

The further you go, the higher the concentration of natural energy becomes. It truly lives up to its reputation as a sacred place for cultivating immortal arts.

Feeling the natural energy continuously flowing into his body, Hinata Sawa Tatsumi couldn't help but sigh.

As the bloodlines of the Otsutsuki clan continued to merge and transform, Hyuga Zetsu was surprised to find that a strange and special energy was constantly gathering around him from the outside, causing him considerable trouble.

Without a doubt, that is one of the essential energies for constructing Sage Chakra, originating from external natural energy.

If it weren't for the invasion of the Otsutsuki clan, which brought chakra to the ninja world, natural energy would be the extraordinary source native to this planet.

Unfortunately, the threshold for absorbing natural energy is too high, which has made chakra the mainstream. Even samurai who do not practice ninjutsu will refine chakra to enhance their strength.

Hinata Sawatatsu came to Ryuchi Cave, naturally to cultivate immortal techniques.

With natural energy practically delivered to his doorstep, Hinata Zechen had no reason to give up this path to becoming stronger.

Most importantly, as Hyuga Zechen cautiously tried to absorb a little natural energy, he immediately discovered that it had a great catalytic effect on the fusion and transformation of the Otsutsuki bloodline within his body, giving Hyuga Zechen another reason to cultivate Sage Mode.

Compared to Mount Myōboku, Hyuga Sawatatsu felt that Ryūchi Cave was more suitable for him, so after obtaining relevant information about Ryūchi Cave from Yakushi Kabuto, he headed there.

Although Hinata Sawatatsu had already left his name on the summoning scroll in Ryuchi Cave, he had never tried to summon Orochi to fight for him, let alone reverse summoning.

Moreover, according to Kabuto Yakushi's information, in order to obtain the qualification to cultivate immortal arts, one must pass the test set by the higher-ups under the White Snake Sage, and signing a spirit contract will not bring any preferential treatment.

Ok?

After traveling some distance, Hinata Sawatatsu seemed to sense something and looked up at the sky.

A white mist filled the air, obscuring Hinata Zechen's view; the place seemed empty, as if it were just an illusion.

Just now, Hinata Zechen keenly sensed that a gaze had fallen on him.

It seems we're not far from Ryuchi-dong.

Hinata Sawatatsu didn't take it seriously, and took another step after stopping, quickly disappearing into the thick fog.

"We still have to go on. Looks like they're not lost travelers. And their senses are incredibly sharp; they almost spotted me..."

A slender, beautiful woman in palace attire appeared, her legs dangling half a foot off the ground, appearing like a ghost in the thick white fog.

"And what an enticing taste! If we could devour his body and soul, perhaps we could go even further."

A forked snake tongue emerged from the woman's red lips, rapidly flicking several times in the direction where Hyuga Zechen had left, her eyes filled with fervor.

After walking for a while, Hinata Sawatatsu suddenly stopped.

As the white mist dissipated, a magnificent, golden palace emerged, with large lanterns emitting a soft golden glow that made the plaque inscribed with "Ryūchi-dō" appear even more sacred.

Squeak!

With a deep thud, the tightly closed doors slowly opened, and the hall radiated a holy light, making the palace-dressed woman standing at the entrance appear as if she were a fairy descending to earth.

"We have been waiting for you for a long time. Welcome to Yongji-dong."
