Revitalizing the Uchiha clan starts with becoming a Kage.

'That also eliminates the crucial thick smoke and fog; otherwise, it would really have a bit of an English foggy feel.'

Jiang Si smiled slightly, and a nonsensical thought suddenly surfaced in the depths of his mind.

With his senses spread out, the general was absolutely certain that there was no one else around. He entered Loulan with very light steps. Although it was a country, Loulan was actually more like a Greek city-state. There was only one city in front of him, and the total population was only tens of thousands at its peak. Therefore, the area of ​​the 'capital' of Loulan was not particularly large!

'If I remember correctly, the dragon vein is located underground in the city center, accessible via a very long spiral corridor!'

As Jiang Si recalled the important information in his mind, he headed towards the center of the ruins. Fortunately, this ruined city had largely retained its original appearance; otherwise, it would have taken Jiang Si much longer to find the location of the dragon vein.

Jiang Si, who was heading straight ahead, arrived at the center of the ruins in less than ten minutes.

This was a tower that stood out prominently before Jiang Si, far more magnificent than any other tall building.

'Looks like this is the right place!'

Jiang Si narrowed his eyes slightly, a faint smile appearing on his face.

Earth Release: Bursting Technique!

A roughly determined entrance location.

The master immediately formed a hand seal.

Then, with a single palm strike, the target was spotted.

"Crack!"

Precise containment at a single point.

Then the surface layer shattered.

"Splash!"

Accompanied by falling rubble and billowing dust.

A deep, dark cave entrance appeared before the general.

'Luckily I was prepared!'

A slightly cool breeze blowing in from inside made Si subconsciously shiver, and then he took out a flint and a torch from his backpack.

"Crack!"

With a light touch.

The torch was lit directly, and then Si leaped into the tower.

The surrounding area can be slightly illuminated.

"boom!"

Jiang Si easily stepped into that deep, spiraling corridor.

"It really does have a slightly eerie feel to it. If it were paired with background music, it would be an absolute killer!"

Jiang Si chuckled softly, and a nonsensical thought popped into his mind. He then strode down the tower at lightning speed, and it took him several minutes to reach the very bottom of the tower.

'That's really tall and deep. Including the height at the base, this tower must be about 150 or 160 meters high, right?'

The general exclaimed in amazement.

This is the deepest point underground that we have reached.

Using the not-so-bright light of the torch, Jiang Si could easily locate an abandoned gate not far away. There used to be a key card with a special seal there. If he remembered correctly, it originally required the Queen's bloodline and a corresponding mark to open it, but obviously, this special sealed gate had been completely destroyed.

This also saves the officers some trouble.

However, even if this gate still exists, at most it will only allow Shoji to test again how strong his Susanoo is under his Eternal Eye.

In any case, it's 100% certain that there's no one else in this city, so there's absolutely no need to worry about any accidents happening.

'If possible, after we leave, we could consider taking some items from these ruins back with us; they seem like they would be quite valuable for reference!'

As Jiang Si stepped into the area inside the gate, he pondered to himself.

Stepping through the gate. Gu Shi

What came into view was a straight passage, with a bottomless hole on each side. Although many years had passed, Jiang Si could still faintly sense a special energy fluctuation from the hole areas on both sides.

This is probably a trace of special energy left over from when the dragon vein's power was active.

In a way, the Dragon Vein is somewhat similar to a Tailed Beast. Strictly speaking, the Dragon Vein has no physical form; it is simply a collection of abilities. However, in the original work, the Dragon Vein does not seem to have its own independent consciousness, but it does exhibit some life-like fluctuations, so it can also be compared to a plant-like existence.

"This is it!"

As the straight passage came to an end.

Jiang Si could see a raised, semi-circular object with an unusually shaped kunai stuck in it. The black, mysterious runes spreading from that kunai were clearly the sealing technique left by the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze!

It was just standing at a close distance.

Jiang Si could easily feel the massive energy fluctuations spreading from the sealing technique. It has to be said that Minato Namikaze was truly a genius. Very few people could achieve such accomplishments at his age. Most importantly, Minato Namikaze's personal charisma was absolutely top-notch in the original work. If this Fourth Hokage had not died so early, the landscape of the ninja world would definitely be very different.

At the very least, the Uchiha clan will definitely remain in Konoha. You should know that Shoji initially tried to believe in the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, so there's no reason why he wouldn't choose to believe in Minato Namikaze!

A profound and precise sealing technique.

It can be said that in the past two years, Shoji has done a lot of homework and preparation. This sealing technique is based on the Four Symbols sealing system. Although the Dragon Vein is strong and special, it is definitely far inferior to the power of the Nine-Tails. The Nine-Tails is a terrifying existence with almost one-third or even half the power of the Ten-Tails. When Minato resealed the Nine-Tails into Naruto's body, he needed to use the Eight Trigrams Sealing Technique and use two Four Symbols Sealing Techniques to suppress the Nine-Tails' chakra!

Dragon veins don't need to be so complicated.

The Four Symbols Sealing Technique alone is already the most advanced sealing technique in the ninja world, sufficient to suppress the power of the Dragon Vein. In fact, as long as there is no external human interference, the Four Symbols Sealing Technique can indeed suppress the power of the Dragon Vein indefinitely. Of course, there is also a more direct reason for this: as mentioned before, the Dragon Vein does not possess autonomous consciousness like the Tailed Beasts. Therefore, unlike the Tailed Beasts, which can frequently challenge the seal and potentially break it, the Dragon Vein is sealed once sealed and will not actively challenge the seal at all!

This is one of the biggest reasons why the Four Symbols Sealing Technique can so easily suppress the dragon vein.

Let's try lifting the lockdown first. If that doesn't work, we'll have to choose plan B or plan C.

Jiang Si looked at the Four Symbols Sealing Technique before him, a solemn expression on his face, before approaching the special kunai.

"Buzz!"

The body moves with the mind!

The Sharingan that opened directly, with its three slowly rotating black tomoe, converged to form a four-cornered windmill shape. As a chilling aura spread out, the entire technique was fully reflected in Shoji's eyes.

At the moment its analysis was completed.

"Reverse Four Symbols Technique, dispel!"

Jiang Si clapped his hands together, rapidly mobilizing the chakra within his body, and then quickly formed hand seals!

A torrent of powerful chakra.

"boom!"

At the moment the procedure is completed.

As Tsukasa gripped the kunai with one hand, he slammed the other hand onto the ground.

"Shh!"

A violent tremor was sensed.

A swaying kunai.

"It can be deactivated!"

This allows for a clear sense of the technique's collapse.

A faint hint of joy appeared between Jiang Si's brows.

Then, a specially made kunai was suddenly drawn out.

"Clang!"

Although it was a bit of a struggle, the kunai was still forcibly pulled out by Jiang Si. Almost at the same moment that the medium of this sealing technique was destroyed by Jiang Si, the mysterious black inscriptions on the ground appeared, sometimes bright and sometimes dark.

next moment.

"boom!"

A loud, explosive sound followed.

"What!?"

next second.

As a beam of light shot into the sky, it appeared.

The space above, which was originally pitch black, suddenly burst into a burst of purple light, illuminating the entire space in an instant. At the same moment, a deep purple wave surged and rolled out from the large holes on both sides of the passage, with a turbulent and violent aura as it rolled.

A look of surprise also appeared on Jiang Si's face.

"What the hell?! This can cause the dragon vein's power to go berserk?!"

Jiang Si himself had already been very careful in unsealing the dragon vein. He had originally planned to use brute force to break the seal if the unsealing spell failed. Although he was prepared for the dragon vein's power to possibly surge, he hadn't even used any violent means yet. You're just going to start doing this. Isn't this going too far off-script?

While Jiang Si was internally ranting and raving, his hands were quick as he pulled out a specially made sealing scroll from his backpack.

"Five Elements Seal!"

First, he immediately unfurled this special scroll, on which was engraved the Five Elements Sealing Technique. This was a sealing technique for special creatures with great power. Of course, it was not used to seal the dragon vein, but to seal off the surrounding space to prevent unexpected situations, such as the sudden surge of the dragon vein's power. Jiang Si intended to add an extra layer of protection.

The chakra that is mobilized.

Then, focusing intently on the towering purple pillar of light directly in front of him, Jiang Si could clearly sense the intense energy emanating from it, which was the source of the dragon vein's power!

"The Four Symbols Sealing Technique!"

One procedure is completed.

Then comes the next moment of change.

Black rune patterns spread out.

The pillar of purple light seemed to freeze for a moment.

"This is the moment!"

The right opportunity.

"seal!"

Jiang Si's arms suddenly pressed down.

"Buzz!"

As a massive burst of chakra erupted, an invisible, powerful binding force spread upwards.
