The correct way for the Uchiha to rise

When he senses that the natural energy is decreasing, Uchiha Kiyoshi will change direction on the spot and continue searching for places with more abundant natural energy.

In this way, the core of the dragon vein can always be found.

This is also one of Uchiha Kiyoshi's advantages; he doesn't need to conduct a thorough search. Who would have thought that one day the ability to sense natural energy could be used in this way?

"We're already close to the core of the dragon vein."

Sensing the density of the natural energy around him, Uchiha Kiyoshi determined his location.

"Now that we're here, the next step is to avoid making any big moves and proceed with caution. Otherwise, if we're not careful, we might get sucked into the dragon vein and travel through time, which would be terrible. After all, we don't know if we can come back. Besides, I have many clones here. What will happen to them if I travel through time? Will they simply disappear, or will they continue to exist?"

Uchiha Kiyoshi didn't want to time travel, at least not now. He only wanted to study the Dragon Vein, not suddenly switch to a different timeline and start all over again. He had built up his resources here for a long time, and if all his clones suddenly disappeared because of a time travel, he would lose everything.

Of course, no one can predict what might happen, and no matter how careful you are, if something unexpected happens, no one can stop it. That's why Uchiha Kiyoya had a backup plan before coming, but it was just a backup plan, not a foolproof solution.

With this backup plan, perhaps the clone can continue to exist after the transmigration. If that happens...

It was called a backup plan, but it was actually a test. Uchiha Kiyoshi thought about his backup plan and couldn't help but start to imagine it.

"No, no, I can't think about it. This is still uncertain. What if I guess wrong? I'll lose a lot of money. I'd rather not go through time travel."

Shaking his head to shake off these thoughts, Uchiha Kiyoshi regained his composure.

"We're getting close to the core of the dragon vein; we must be careful."

Although it was said to be an accident or a time travel, Uchiha Kiyoshi knew very well that at the time of the time travel, he was lucky or unlucky, and it was uncertain whether he could survive the Dragon Vein riot.

After advancing for another ten minutes, Uchiha Kiyoshi stopped, his expression grave.

There are people ahead.

An Lushan!

The boss who traveled from the future.

"I traveled from the future, specifically to Naruto's era. This guy was surprised to see me, but he didn't seem to recognize me. So, for the next ten or twenty years, I remained undetected? No one knew what I looked like, or even that I existed?"

Thinking of this, Uchiha Kiyoshi's heart sank.

Impossible. In his own plans, he wouldn't hide for that long. After reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, he should gradually come into the open. He even has the idea of ​​forming an organization. At that time, no matter how careful he is, it's impossible for him to have never revealed any information about his identity.

After all, the Uchiha clan massacre occurred before the era of An Lushan. Could he have done nothing in the Uchiha clan massacre? Impossible.

Could it be that my cultivation of immortality failed? Did something go wrong with my attempt to return to my innate state?

At this moment, Uchiha Kiyoshi's mind was in complete turmoil.

Damn it, what on earth happened?

"Let's verify it first."

Uchiha Kiyoshi focused his attention on An Lushan. Thinking wildly was not the solution; he decided to try to extract some information from An Lushan first.

To verify whether An Lushan had truly never heard of his own and his many incarnations' deeds, if all else fails, the only option is time travel. Travel to the future and see what happens.

Perhaps this was an accident. Because of An Lushan, Uchiha Kiyoshi suspected that there was a problem with his future cultivation, and that he would die and his cultivation would be destroyed. This led him to want to travel to another world. It can only be said that things are unpredictable.

At this moment, Uchiha Kiyoshi even changed his mind and wanted to travel through the Dragon Vein.

At this time, An Lushan had not yet revealed his ambitions. With the support of the Loulan Queen, he was in charge of developing the dragon veins and his body had not yet been modified. However, he did have some Loulan ninjas under his command.

"Who is this guy? How did an outsider get into the dragon vein, and even come here?"

An Lushan became highly vigilant.

"Stop him!"

He gave orders to the guards around him.

A dozen or so ninjas, under An Lushan's orders, headed towards Uchiha Kiyoshi.

"Just to my liking."

Uchiha Kiyoshi formed hand seals.

"Sand Release: Gundam Mode"

Transformed into a twenty-meter-tall giant made of sand, Uchiha Kiyoshi stared intently at An Lushan, watching his reaction.

These ninjas weren't strong; a 20-meter-tall giant was enough. Besides, this was the core of the dragon vein, and anything larger could cause an accident. Although he was mentally prepared for the transmigration, Uchiha Kiyoshi was still cautious. Accidents weren't just limited to transmigration; there could also be a dragon vein eruption. Moreover, with transmigration, it was better to control the timing himself.

Most importantly, it's this ninjutsu.

The reason for using Sand Release instead of Lava Release is naturally because of An Lushan's identity—a rogue ninja from Sunagakure.

You may not know the methods that appeared in the ninja world more than a decade ago, but you still need to know the capabilities of your own village.

Even if he fails to return to his original form a few years later, by then Maka would have already revealed Sand Release: Gundam Mode, right?

Unfortunately, Uchiha Kiyoshi quickly fell into disappointment.

An Lushan was filled with shock and fear, shocked that such a method existed in the world, and fearful of such a method. He did not seem to know this technique at all, and showed no sign of recognizing it.

Damn it!

What will become of the future?

Or rather, what exactly happened to the timeline that An Lushan belonged to?

Chapter 206 The future?

"Qi Yuan Slash"

Without using any explosive methods, Uchiha Kiyoshi adopted the Spirit Slash technique, which had the least impact. Although it was powerful, it was the least disruptive.

Furthermore, Uchiha Kiyoshi did not use Sand Release.

As the Qi Yuan Slash flew past, a group of ninjas were decapitated, and An Lushan's soul was left in disarray.

"Damn it, how could such a powerful ninja come to the Dragon Vein? I've never heard of any powerful ninja coming to the Dragon Vein in the previous timeline."

Uchiha Kiyoshi originally intended to eliminate An Lushan as well, but An Lushan, having witnessed Uchiha Kiyoshi's abilities, was determined to escape. After using ninjutsu, he simply disappeared, and no matter how hard Uchiha Kiyoshi searched, he couldn't find him.

"Hmm? The use of Dragon Vein Chakra? This guy can already mobilize Dragon Vein Chakra at this point?"

Uchiha Kiyoshi frowned and searched the area, but he couldn't find An Lushan. He only sensed a strange yet familiar chakra nearby.

That's dragon vein chakra.

"The dragon vein chakra contains space-time attributes, so it's not impossible that it could be used to move An Lushan away."

Having failed to find An Lushan, Uchiha Kiyoshi did not intend to waste any more time and ventured deeper into the direction from which An Lushan and his group had come.

"Damn it, who was that? So powerful, how come I've never heard of them before?"

Having escaped from Uchiha Kiyoshi's clutches, An Lushan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Recalling Uchiha Kiyoshi's methods, his words were full of hostility.

This guy also came to the Dragon Vein, and he seems to be very interested in it.

"No, we absolutely cannot let him obtain the dragon vein."

An Lushan had planned so much for the dragon vein, how could he tolerate someone else getting there first?

A fierce glint appeared in his eyes as An Lushan gritted his teeth and made up his mind.

"Trying to steal my dragon vein? Impossible! Nobody can!"

Unbeknownst to Uchiha Kiyoshi, An Lushan secretly returned to the vicinity of the Dragon Vein's core.

Uchiha Kiyoshi never expected that An Lushan, whom he had almost killed and who had narrowly escaped, would return, and that his target would be him.

He would have believed it if the other party had returned to Loulan with a group of people, but he hadn't expected that the other party would only save his life and return alone.

The main problem was that Uchiha Kiyoshi didn't know the significance of the Dragon Vein to An Lushan.

"A very peculiar aura."

The deeper he went, the more he could sense the spacetime attributes within the natural energy.

"However, while these so-called spacetime attributes are mysterious, why are they so similar to spatial attributes?"

It's almost like adding a modifier to a spatial attribute, rather than giving it another attribute.

The more this was the case, the more Uchiha Kiyoshi began to doubt his own guesses.

Does the concept of time truly exist in the ninja world?

Or, to put it another way, if you control time, can you really travel through timelines?

This doesn't seem to be a problem...

"These two issues shouldn't be confused. Hmm?"

Just as Uchiha Kiyoshi was pondering, a sudden surge of chakra startled him.

Damn, An Lushan is back?

The reason for their alarm was that this was the core of the dragon vein, the true heartland, and that An Lushan had launched an attack the moment he revealed his aura.

Damn it, what is this idiot trying to do?

An Lushan's face was contorted with rage and he looked utterly ferocious; he was no longer the Loulan minister he once was.

"The dragon vein is mine! Everyone who covets the dragon vein deserves to die!"

As he spoke, he formed a hand seal.

The energy at the core of the entire dragon vein began to surge and become active, and Uchiha Kiyoshi sensed something was wrong.

An Lushan could only control a limited amount of dragon vein chakra, but even if he couldn't control it, he could still manipulate or influence it.

After doing all that, An Lushan used the faint dragon vein chakra he had mastered to envelop himself. At the same time, An Lushan seemed to have suddenly lost his soul, and his body fell to the ground. The state of his limbs was extremely strange, and he looked exactly like a puppet without anyone controlling him!

An Lushan temporarily sealed his soul, leaving only a puppet body, which was also wrapped in a layer of dragon vein chakra. This was a method he had developed over the years to prevent the dragon vein from causing him to travel through time again when it raged. Now, it seemed to be used to perish together with the puppet.

Time travel is no simple matter. He himself had gone through countless near-death experiences to travel here. He didn't know if he could survive another time. So even though he knew that the Dragon Vein could transport people through time, he dared not and would not attempt to do so.

The Dragon Vein Chakra, though described as a riot, was actually "activated" and "awakened" by An Lushan. A rich spatial and temporal aura permeated the area, enveloping the entire core of the Dragon Vein.

Uchiha Kiyoshi felt as if he were enveloped by this power, as if he had experienced a long period of time, or as if it had only been a moment.

Looking at the constantly changing scenery, Uchiha Kiyoshi knew that he was about to travel through time.

The surrounding scenery is a product of the environment changing over time; however, this is the scenery of the core area of ​​the dragon vein, and he can't discern anything from it...

Whether he had traveled to the past or the future, and in which time period, these were the questions that Uchiha Kiyoshi was pondering at that moment.
