Starting with Wood Release, he survives in Konoha Hospital and becomes a big shot.

The yard is about 100 square meters and is full of flowers and plants. However, because no one has lived there for a long time, the yard is overgrown with weeds, and many flowers have been submerged in the weeds.

Further inside is a two-story wooden building that looks very simple and without much decoration, much like it was built using the Yamato wooden house technique.

"There's not much furniture, but I'll have Shizune help you choose some and have it delivered. Since you're staying here, you can come to the hospital to find us anytime if anything happens," Tsunade said.

Although the property is registered in Tsunade's name, she herself was unaware that she owned such a house. There was no way around it; she had too many houses, and if Yao Xingji hadn't desperately needed to find a place, she wouldn't have thought of these oddly shaped rooms.

"The conditions are a bit basic, but we can't let you live too comfortably, or you'll easily become addicted to pleasure. The fact that you chose this house shows that you have a good character," Tsunade said as she led Yakusei into the house.

Yao Xingji silently rolled his eyes, thinking to himself that it was because he was heartbroken about his gambling money. Those houses in good locations were practically Konoha's CBD, and the rent alone could allow Tsunade to squander it at the gambling table for a long time every year.

The two arrived at the back of the house, where there was also a yard. In the middle was a small pond, surrounded by fallen leaves, indicating it hadn't been cleaned in a long time.

“Starry Sky, in a few days, I will personally begin to teach you medical ninjutsu.”

Standing by the pond, Tsunade suddenly spoke with a serious expression.

"Great! I can finally learn other medical ninjutsu!" Yao Xingji said immediately.

On the surface, Yao Xingji did not show any abnormality, but he caught a hint of disappointment in Tsunade's expression.

"You are still too young to teach you many things, but I will pass on my ninja way as a medical ninja to you. When you enter the ninja academy and begin to systematically learn ninjutsu, the ninja way will be the guiding light for you."

A gentle breeze swept across the water, lifting a few leaves. Tsunade's golden hair danced in the wind, her profile showing a smile, yet also an indescribable sense of loneliness.

"Tsunade-sensei... is she leaving?" Yao Xingji asked after a moment of contemplation.

Tsunade's expression shifted, and she looked at the little one beside her.

"How did you know I was leaving?" Tsunade asked.

“You look exactly the same as you did before the Dean left,” Yao Xingji said.

Actually, he didn't remember what Yakushi Nonou looked like when she left. It was just what Tsunade had said that made him realize that Tsunade was probably going to leave the village to travel the world, just like in the original story.

"You little rascal, you can even see that." Tsunade smiled and patted Yao Xingji's head.

Leaving Konoha was a decision she had made long ago. She had actually been waiting for Shizune to be promoted to Chunin, and she estimated that it wouldn't be long before that happened.

She had also considered staying for Yao Xingji's sake.

Unfortunately, Tsunade is no longer the legendary Sannin of Konoha who once dominated the ninja world; she is now a coward who can't stand the sight of blood.

What use is someone like that staying in Konoha?

After the two left, Jingyin acted quickly, furnishing the house that same day and hiring someone to clean the entire house and the yard outside.

Yao Xingji couldn't wait and moved in that very night.

For him, there was no private space in either the hospital or the orphanage, and there were many things he couldn't do.

Now that I have my own house, I naturally moved in as soon as possible.

Xiao Si moved in with him, because Yao Xingji was too young to live alone. Xiao Si had helped Yao Xingji a lot when they were at the orphanage, so Yao Xingji took Xiao Si with him when they left the orphanage.

The two lived separately, one downstairs and the other upstairs, so they didn't bother each other.

"You really won't live with me?" Xiaosi looked at Yaoxingji and asked one last time.

"No!" Yao Xing shook his head firmly.

He moved out to have private space, so how could he possibly still live in the same room as Koji?

"You can..." Xiaosi wanted to say something, but Yao Xingji interrupted her directly.

"Although I'm young, I can definitely live alone. Alright, Koji-nii, go to sleep now. You have to go to the Ninja Academy tomorrow." Yao Xingji pushed Koji out the door.

"Remember to call me if you need anything," Koji called out the moment the door closed.

"Understood," Yao Xingji said loudly.

After seeing Xiaosi off, Yao Xingji finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He is now free.

After moving out, Yao Xingji was worried that he would be monitored. However, during a later conversation, Yao Xingji learned from Shizune that Tsunade had gone to the Hokage and Danzo, asking them to stop monitoring him to prevent them from having any more ulterior motives.

Tsunade even secretly checked the surroundings to make sure there were no Root ninjas around Yakusei before she felt at ease.

However, Yao Xingji did not entirely trust Tsunade's judgment. He had also carefully investigated the area and found no signs of surveillance, which reassured him considerably.

As for the Hokage's telescope technique, Yao Xingji wasn't too afraid.

Firstly, the Hokage is extremely busy right now, with the Third Shinobi World War potentially breaking out at any moment; he doesn't have time to monitor him every day. Secondly, Yao Xingji really doesn't have anyone else to monitor right now.

Back in bed, Yao Xingji took a deep breath, calmed his mind, and entered his own mental world.

The Cosmic Heart, resembling a Rubik's Cube, radiates blue and red light. Compared to its initial state, the Cosmic Heart has now grown significantly, accumulating a great deal of azure creative power and crimson destructive power, enough for Yao Xingji to proceed with the next stage of exploration.

"Hopefully, it won't cause any big commotion," Yao Xingji thought to himself.

After adjusting his breathing, Yao Xingji activated the Azure Creation Power and the Crimson Destruction Power. The two different powers flowed out from the heart of the universe and quickly spread throughout his entire spiritual world.

In an instant, Yao Xingji sensed an attraction. It was the mysterious space he had previously detected, the place where he stored the Book of Seals and the Hidden Mist Ninja Sword.

boom!

The next moment, Yao Xingji's mental world seemed to explode, and his soul was extracted and entered a vast space.

A colossal statue stood before Yao Xingji. It was a hooded figure whose face was obscured. His hands were suspended in mid-air, palms facing each other in a triangle, with a Rubik's Cube surrounded by red and blue light in the palms.

At the same time, three words appeared directly in Yao Xingji's mind, making him realize where he was.

“Upside down!” Yao Xingji slowly uttered.

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

Chapter Sixty-Nine: Yao Tian

"Upside-down sky? Isn't this the place where the gods live in the world of Honor of Kings?" Yao Xingji muttered to himself in shock.

In the world of Honor of Kings, the Upside-Down Heaven is a hero faction. The heroes from the Upside-Down Heaven are mostly figures from mythology and legends, among whom the most representative are Nuwa and Pangu.

At this moment, Yao Xingji was located in the Upside-Down Heaven.

Looking around, Yao Xingji saw nothing else but the huge stone statue standing before him.

"It looks a bit like the statue above the fountain in the game's spawn area," Yao Xingji said, looking at the statue.

Soon, Yao Xingji had explored the entire area of ​​the Upside-Down Heaven. He discovered that it was a magnificent palace, roughly the size of two football fields, surrounded by towering walls carved with exquisite patterns. Judging from the images, they seemed to depict the story of the gods creating the world.

Above is a magnificent dome that is hundreds of meters high, engraved with countless stars. The light emanates from these stars, illuminating the entire hall.

However, this main hall had no door, so Yao Xingji had no idea what was outside the main hall.

"It's so empty here, there's nothing at all. If only there were a table or something," Yao Xingji murmured to himself.

The moment the words fell, azure light emanated from the heart of the universe in the stone statue's palm, and a huge bronze table appeared beneath the statue, lying across Yao Xingji's front.

"This..." Yao Xingji was completely stunned.

Is this also possible?

"Can I visualize anything I want here, as long as I want it?" Yao Xingji immediately thought of this question.

The next moment, accompanied by the fluctuation of Yao Xingji's will, a tall bronze chair appeared behind the bronze table. It looked ancient and magnificent, as if it had experienced endless vicissitudes.

"It actually works!"

Yao Xingji reached out and stroked the bronze table. The cold, heavy touch told him that this thing was real.

"I remember that the Upside-Down Heaven exists in the sky, does that mean that I am currently in the sky above the ninja world?"

Upon realizing this, Yao Xingji immediately looked down at the floor beneath his feet.

Sure enough, the once weathered stone ground began to become transparent, and under the cover of clouds and mist, a continent appeared in the azure ocean. Judging from its shape, it was exactly like the Ninja World.

Yao Xingji focused his attention and looked down at the continent. His vision zoomed in, and he could see the location of the Land of Fire and even roughly pinpoint the location of Konoha.

Just then, Yao Xingji felt dizzy and immediately stopped observing, letting the ground return to its ancient stone floor.

"The chakra consumption is too severe!" Yao Xingji's face was slightly pale.

He discovered that since entering this place, his chakra had been constantly being depleted, not quickly, but not slowly either. His recent act of observing the ninja world had drastically increased the rate of chakra depletion; if he continued observing, he estimated he would soon be forced to leave the Upside-Down Heaven due to chakra exhaustion.

"To stay here for an extended period, I'll need a lot of chakra to sustain me," Yao Xingji muttered to himself.

He then saw the Rubik's Cube-like object floating in the palm of the stone statue.

That must be the Heart of the Universe. The red and blue light swirling around it is the blue power of creation and the scarlet power of destruction that he obtained through healing the sick and saving lives, as well as killing people.

After a moment's contemplation, Yao Xingji waved his right hand, and the azure creative power flowed forth once more. A massive stone table appeared in the center of the hall, flanked by seven high-backed stone chairs, providing fourteen seats in total. At the same time, the bronze table where he stood began to rise, presenting a view overlooking the entire Upside-Down Heavenly Hall.

"This makes it feel a bit like the Tarot Club of Kesong," Yao Xingji muttered to himself, gazing at the upside-down sky before him.

After a moment of contemplation, Yao Xingji began his attempt again.

He quickly figured out the general situation here.

The Heart of the Universe is formed by the convergence of the laws of the universe. Therefore, in the Upside-Down Heaven, Yao Xingji has a certain ability to manipulate the laws of the universe. To put it bluntly, Yao Xingji can set the rules for the Upside-Down Heaven Palace.

However, this manipulation is limited and resource-intensive.

The rules Yao Xingji establishes here must conform to the rules governing the universe; in other words, he cannot break through the original rules of the universe to create new rules. Moreover, these rules are established based on his existing understanding of this world. This is why Yao Xingji can create the bronze table in an instant, and why it is so similar to Klein's Source Castle in Lord of Mysteries—because he read that book and subconsciously constructed this place according to the descriptions in it.

In terms of consumption, the main sources of consumption are Azure Creation Power and Crimson Destruction Power. Apart from that, chakra is being consumed slowly.

“Interesting.” Yao Xingji’s gaze passed through the main hall and landed on the solid long table below.

There are seven stone high-backed chairs on each side of the table, making a total of fourteen chairs, corresponding to the fourteen main stars in the sky above the dome.

They are Ziwei Star, Tanlang Star, Jumen Star, Lianzhen Star, Wuqu Star, Pojun Star, Qisha Star, Tianxiang Star, Tiantong Star, Tianji Star, Tianliang Star, Tianfu Star, Taiyang Star, and Taiyin Star.

With a thought, Yao Xingji sent down a beam of light from each of the fourteen main stars, illuminating the fourteen high-backed stone chairs. At the same time, the light from the other stars in the dome quickly dimmed, leaving only the light from the fourteen main stars.

The next moment, different star patterns appeared on each chair, corresponding to their respective main stars, and the names of the main stars were written in the thin gold script Chinese characters above the chair backs.

After doing all this, Yao Xingji looked up at the stars in the dome.

"If the main star here represents the ninjas I can summon, then that means I can form a fourteen-person organization here. Is that the Starry Sky Society?"

Yao Xingji shook his head: "Let's call him Yao Tian instead."

How majestic! Heaven is the greatest, and only Yao followed its example.

These two characters are mostly used to praise a peaceful and prosperous era.

"Given my current capabilities, I can probably only recruit one person. Who should I try?" Yao Xingji pondered to himself.
