The correct way for the Uchiha to rise

I can understand it.

Language interoperability!

Although the accents were slightly different, the general meaning was still understandable. At least from the middle-aged man in the guard's words, Tu Shi understood what he meant.

"It seems that this place is not completely unconnected to the main continent. There must have been contact before, but it was cut off afterward."

Considering the vast Dead Sea between the two continents and its harsh environment, Tu Shi thought it was unlikely. If there truly was a way to overcome the Dead Sea's dangers and reach the other continent, there was no reason for the journey to be interrupted.

"Unless the Dead Sea never existed in the first place!"

It's even possible that the Dead Sea was once a continent, or that all the continents were connected but were interrupted!

is it possible?

some.

While Uchiha Kiyoshi's current strength might not be enough, it would be sufficient to reach the Six Paths level.

The Six Paths level of strength is not limited to the Sage of Six Paths brothers and Kaguya Otsutsuki. In the history of the ninja world, the legends of great gods such as Amaterasu and Susanoo may not be false. If they really existed, then their strength would most likely have reached the Six Paths level, and they would not be weak beings at this level.

With a thousand thoughts swirling in his mind, Tu Shi did not neglect the guards opposite him.

I need to learn about the situation on the mainland through these people, so there's no need to clash with them.

"Tu Shi. This is my first time leaving the mountains after learning my skills. I came here by chance and hope to learn some things from you."

Although he didn't intend to clash with these people, Tsuchishi also didn't need to curry favor with them. Tsuchishi had sensed that these people's bodies were stronger than some Chunin, so they must have trained, most likely through the lineage of samurai.

He unleashed a burst of chakra, piercing a boulder to his right, demonstrating his power and intimidating the group. The boulder then ceased its movement, lest it be seen as a provocation.

Upon witnessing the incredible power of the earth and stone, the guards were visibly astonished.

Although they also possessed the power to shatter boulders, this was the first time they had ever seen a method of projecting energy like earth and stone.

However, having heard that cultivators around the world employ all sorts of strange and wonderful methods, they did not question Tu Shi's methods.

When the middle-aged strong man saw Tu Shi make his move, his expression became a little serious. Judging from Tu Shi's demeanor just now, it was clear that he hadn't exerted much effort.

“Our tribe is not ignorant of hospitality. As long as there is no hostility and no one does anything harmful to the tribe, they are our guests.”

As he spoke, the middle-aged man made way for him, gesturing with his hand.

"please!"

The other party didn't seem to mind the slight language difference.

Tribes are scattered around the world, so some differences in language are inevitable. As long as you can understand them in general, it's fine.

Upon entering the tribe, Tu Shi saw a group of children training under the guidance of several middle-aged men.

"As expected, this must be the path of a samurai."

Under the guidance of adults, the children continuously engage in basic training to improve their physical fitness.

Meanwhile, Tu Shi also saw several women cooking something over a fire not far away.

Judging from the smell, Tu Shi could roughly tell that this was something similar to a medicinal bath.

"It seems that the isolation from the main continent has prevented this place from being affected by chakra, and instead allowed it to develop a relatively complete system."

The children's training was quite methodical, and from my mental perception, I could tell that the members of the guard team beside me were all physically stronger than Chunin, and their habits in every move suggested that they were also quite skilled in taijutsu.

Based on the samurai path on the main continent, if one's body can be trained to this level and combat skills are not lacking, one should have strength close to that of a special Jonin.

This refers to overall strength, a judgment made on a samurai while taking into account the fact that a ninja can use ninjutsu.

Therefore, a group of special Jonin.

Is this still considered a small tribe?

A tribe of two hundred people actually possessed the combat strength of thirty or forty elite Chunin.

It seems that the path of the samurai has developed exceptionally well on this continent.

"I can ask you for advice when I have time, and see if it can be of any use to my path of cultivation."

The middle-aged strong man who had just spoken with Tu Shi was physically stronger than the other members of the guard team. In terms of samurai level, he was probably at the level of a Jonin or even close to an elite Jonin.

It can be said that the cultivation path is quite complete.

Moreover, the various judgments made by Tushi are only based on the samurai system. The roads here, without the influence of chakra, should be more developed than those on the main continent. It is difficult to compare the relative strength of the combat forces of the same period.

However, Tu Shi believes that the fighting strength on this side is likely not weak.

The samurai system on the main continent hasn't really developed; it's just a copy of previous systems. There's no reason why the more developed and sophisticated system here should be weaker.

"Honorable guest, our high priest is already waiting for you."

Seemingly having received some information, the middle-aged man spoke respectfully to the earth and stones.

"High Priest?"

At this moment, Tu Shi's expression became increasingly strange.

Is this still the ninja world? It's become like a fantasy world.

But is the High Priest that person? The most mysterious one in the entire tribe.

His physical abilities weren't particularly outstanding, but his spirit seemed exceptionally strong.

Moreover, was that a method of transmitting sound just now?

To be honest, I still don't know how to do it. Of course, it's not that the earth and stone can't be developed, but rather that we haven't thought of this aspect, especially since we've had enough time to research it. Uchiha Kiyoshi has mostly used memory sharing to transmit messages.

However, the ability to transmit sound secretly might be useful in specific situations, and it's worth exploring when I have some free time...

Lost in thought, Tu Shi was led by the middle-aged strong man to the building where the high priest was located, which was the place of the most mysterious person in Tu Shi's perception.

Chapter 331 The Legacy of the Onmyoji

The tall, sacrificial-like building is carved with various bizarre patterns.

This is the most exquisite building I've seen on my journey.

The houses of other tribes, while not exactly simple, were not very decorated either.

"The High Priest is already waiting for you inside. Please come in."

Seemingly having received another telepathic message, the middle-aged man gestured for Tu Shi to enter on his own, while he himself stood aside, seemingly guarding the area.

Tu Shi didn't hesitate and stepped inside.

Through his spiritual perception, Tu Shi already knew the scene inside. After entering, he did not look around aimlessly, but focused his gaze on the "High Priest" in the very center.

An elderly woman dressed in special clothing.

"This guest who has come from afar, you may now withdraw your senses."

Upon hearing the high priest's words, Tu Shi's expression changed slightly.

Since the development of mental perception, it has almost never been perceived by anyone.

At most, some people will intuitively sense that something is wrong.

The high priest before him was able to accurately perceive his spiritual senses!

Or is it that the other party simply has a keen intuition, instinctively sensing that they are being spied on, and is trying to trick me?

Looking at the other person's gaze, which held a hint of a smile yet remained calm, Tu Shi instinctively felt that the other person had truly sensed him.

However, this did not frighten him; instead, it filled him with ecstasy.

He had sensed it before; this high priest's soul was far stronger than that of ordinary people. Now, feeling it up close, it was even more obvious. Coupled with the fact that the other party could clearly sense his spiritual perception, Tu Shi was naturally extremely excited.

This means that the high priest most likely has a lineage of soul cultivation.

The inheritance of cultivating the soul!

Although the main continent is far more developed than this place, the primitive continent seems to have a much greater diversity in cultivation systems.

On the main continent, the advantage of chakra is too obvious. Other training systems, except for the samurai who have completely died out, are only supported by Mifune, who has the strength of a Kage. They are completely at a disadvantage in the comparison between the two systems. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that cultivating chakra itself requires talent, the samurai might have died out long ago.

Cultivating chakra requires talent; not everyone can refine chakra.

This talent is none other than the talent for refining chakra. Either you or your ancestors received some kind of chakra modification, possessing the corresponding genes, and are able to establish a connection with the power of the rules leaked from the source rules, which means they are able to cultivate spiritual energy.

In fact, this gift is not something that ordinary people can do.

The Sage of Six Paths could certainly do that. Aside from him, if an ordinary ninja transferred their chakra into a common person, even without controlling the chakra to harm them, or even if they controlled the chakra to avoid harming the person, the common person would most likely still die. The chances of survival were extremely small.

Therefore, if we trace back a thousand years, over 90% of the ninjas today trace their ancestry back to the Sage of Six Paths.

"I'm sorry, this feature is always on. I'm used to it and forgot about it for a moment."

Withdrawing his spiritual perception, Tu Shi apologized to the High Priest.

"It's alright."

The high priest did not pursue the matter further, glossing over it with a single sentence, and then began to inquire about the origin of the soil and stones.

They didn't press for details or push too hard; they just wanted to know some basic information.

Tu Shi also fabricated a story, claiming that the main continent was a small island, and that he had been cultivating on the island after receiving his teacher's inheritance, and had only recently left the island to travel to the mainland.

When they arrived, Tu Shi had noticed that there were indeed small islands around. Although there was life on the islands, no humans lived there, and the creatures on the islands were generally quite powerful.

However, with so many small islands, it's possible that some people are actually living in seclusion there.

He told the story of his origins in a half-truthful manner, and also asked the high priest about the situation on the mainland.

This was also his purpose this time. He came to the human settlement, thinking that he could easily obtain the information, but now it seems that it may be difficult.

If the middle-aged strong men outside have the strength of elite Jonin, it means that the samurai lineage is quite complete. There are likely at least one or two such individuals in each generation. Over the years, there should be five or six retired elite Jonin. Even if their strength declines due to physical reasons, they should at least have the strength of a Jonin.

That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Tu Shi felt a sense of threat from the high priest in front of him.

It wasn't that the High Priest's aura was so powerful that he could kill Tu Shi, whose peak strength was at the Super Shadow level.

Tu Shi guessed that it was probably due to the other party's cultivation lineage.

Since the opponent cultivates the soul, they naturally have no shortage of attack methods in this area. Even if their physical body came, they might not be able to surpass them in terms of soul power.

After all, the Uchiha Soul Nourishing Technique was only developed a few years ago, while this high priest has likely been practicing it for at least several decades and has a complete system of inheritance.

The biggest threat should be the soil and rock itself.
