For a time, practitioners of the Qi and Blood Dao were all gathering in the east.
There, martial arts are practiced.
A martial art that can be stably passed down!
......
While Zu was causing trouble, the main continent appeared unusually calm on the surface. Of course, behind this calm, who knew what major changes were brewing?
The Great Toad Sage truly lived up to his reputation as someone who could fool the Sage of Six Paths. After Jiraiya met him, he was somehow brainwashed, and after leaving the organization, his attitude towards the Sage Organization became much more open.
Jiraiya's situation was unknown to anyone outside of Mount Myōboku, and it didn't cause any stir in the ninja world.
"Has something happened in the ninja world? Why do I have this bad feeling lately?"
Deep within the first level of the Pure Land, all is white and there is not a single soul here!
A large area was the territory of the Sage of Six Paths.
In the center, a wooden house stands, where an old man wearing a white coat with six magatama patterns on his chest, two horns on his head, and some wrinkles on his face is frowning in thought.
He is none other than the Sage of Six Paths.
"What's going on? What's happening to the ninja world?"
Thanks to his weak connection with the ninja world, the Sage of Six Paths was able to sense the general direction of the ninja world at any time. He hadn't felt anything different recently. It was still the era of the ninja villages established decades ago. There had been no changes in the five great ninja villages, and the war had just ended. However, at this moment, he did have a bad feeling.
It didn't come from a perception of the ninja world, but from pure intuition.
I felt something was wrong a while ago, and now it seems there has been some unexpected change.
Unexpected events beyond his control.
Is there anything in the ninja world that he cannot control?
"Brother."
The Sage of Six Paths turned to look at his younger brother, who had appeared out of nowhere, and his expression softened.
"You've arrived."
"What brings you here, brother?"
"There may be some changes in the ninja world recently. I have a bad feeling about it and I want to take a look at the ninja world."
The Sage of Six Paths ultimately decided to conduct an investigation of the ninja world.
Through his connection with the ninja world, the Sage of Six Paths was indeed able to sense some things, but not in detail. At most, he could sense the existence of the five ninja villages with the most ninjas and the power balance between them.
At that moment, his inner unease led him to make a decision.
Let's take a closer look at the ninja world and understand the specific changes it has undergone.
"what?"
Hamura Otsutsuki was quite surprised. "You want to check on the situation in the ninja world? What about those others?"
"Sigh!" The Sage of Six Paths explained his plan, "I asked you to come here just in case. If the Death God and the Evil God come to question us, the two of us together can easily hold them off."
The Pure Land's interference with the development of the ninja world is not allowed. At least not according to the rules.
Why should the dead care about the world of the living?
However, there are always those whose strength is enough to disregard the rules and disrupt the development of the ninja world even in the Pure Land.
These people are beings at the Six Paths level.
The Six Paths level was actually defined by Uchiha Kiyoshi based on the Sage of Six Paths. Those strong at this level preferred to call themselves gods or immortals.
Those who come later are destined to have an advantage, because they are the gods who have the most direct influence on the ninja world.
Just like the Sage of Six Paths, who established the Ninja Cult and spread chakra, directly pioneering the ninja system in the ninja world and making it the mainstream, his influence was profound.
At the same time, whether it's entrusting the Death God Mask to the Uzumaki clan for safekeeping or leaving the Ninja Clan to maintain order in the ninja world, both are checks and balances on the other gods.
Therefore, although the Sage of Six Paths and his brother occupied the outermost two layers of the Pure Land after his death, they also made an agreement with the other beings.
The most important rule is that the Sage of Six Paths is not allowed to directly interfere with the ninja world.
It's understandable that they could perceive the general outline of the ninja world through faith and so on, since their faith was truly strong enough to be perceived even without being actively severed.
It is absolutely forbidden to actively explore the ninja world or directly transfer power to it in order to control its development.
The Grim Reaper and the Evil God are waiting for the ninja world to develop on its own initiative and for a new god-level powerhouse to emerge, ending the era of the Sage of Six Paths, so that they can restore their former rule.
The ninja world is now entirely devoted to the Sage of Six Paths. Whenever a new powerful ninja emerges, the target will inevitably be the Sage of Six Paths, having little impact on them. In fact, with all of the Sage of Six Paths' backup plans eliminated, their suppression will weaken, indirectly benefiting them.
As for offending them all directly?
Heh, unless the newly emerging powerhouses also come out in droves, they will all face enemies after the opponent dies!
However, an agreement is ultimately just an agreement.
Just like the treaty of defeat in the ninja world, talking about maintaining peace in the ninja world is pure nonsense. Once you reach the peak of your strength and are facing a shortage of resources, who cares about such things?
Verbal promises are not valid.
At this moment, the Sage of Six Paths is about to break this agreement.
Of course, he also had enough reason to do so.
With the two brothers working together, we're really not afraid of what they can do.
Ninja world.
Suddenly, a powerful soul aura emerged, manipulating the power of rules and scanning the entire ninja world.
Those who are weak or lack a deep understanding of the rules will not notice this, and this naturally does not include Uchiha Kiyoshi and the three great sages.
"Have you noticed something amiss too? Forcibly probing the ninja world has disturbed the peace of the Pure Land." The Great Toad Sage, his face weathered with age, looked up at the sky.
"What's this old man doing? Is he trying to interfere in the affairs of the ninja world even after he's dead?"
Compared to the Great Toad Sage, the White Snake Sage didn't have a very friendly attitude towards the Sage of Six Paths.
The battle in which the Sage of Six Paths and his brothers sealed Kaguya destroyed many sacred sites. The only reason Ryuchi Cave survived was because it was close to Mount Myōboku and escaped the ravages of war.
The White Snake Sage never had a good impression of the Sage of Six Paths.
However, my strength doesn't allow it.
Now, a change has occurred in the ninja world. The Sage of Six Paths has reappeared, which has greatly angered the White Snake Sage.
"Sigh, here we go again." Compared to the two of them, the slug sage of the Wet Bone Forest was completely in a lazy, nonchalant state. He looked at the sky, said nothing, and continued to lie there, whether asleep or something else was unknown.
The slugs around them remained active.
Compared to the three great sages, Uchiha Kiyoshi reacted the most strongly.
The essence of that soul aura was at least one and a half levels stronger than his. That wasn't a big deal, since it was only a small amount. But the power of the rules that the other party used to probe the ninja world was truly overwhelming for Uchiha Kiyoshi.
The ability to manipulate external rules for one's own use, even with just a wisp of a soul, is truly terrifying.
The detection of the power of rules cannot be resisted by Uchiha Kiyoshi's isolation barrier.
Uchiha Kiyoshi could sense the Sage of Six Paths's probing, and the Sage naturally sensed Uchiha Kiyoshi's presence as well.
Even Uchiha Kiyoshi could sense that the probing power lingered around him for a moment.
Not only Qingzhi Island, but also the Immortal Path Holy Land was visited. The other party clearly conducted a more detailed investigation of the Immortal Path Holy Land.
"Damn it! This must be the Sage of Six Paths! Why is he suddenly investigating the ninja world?"
The Sage of Six Paths' investigation caught Uchiha Kiyoshi off guard, his expression shifting constantly, and in the end, he could only sigh.
"We're still not strong enough."
If one is truly powerful, then what is there to worry about?
You dare to come and explore freely?
However, the power of rules...
I don't know how much I can find out about my situation.
Uchiha Kiyoshi didn't think the Sage of Six Paths was a good person, and even if he were, he wouldn't think that way.
What's wrong with our ancestors? Aren't there plenty of stories about our ancestors harming their descendants?
When something happens in the ninja world, they can't sit still and immediately launch a full-scale investigation. How could they possibly be a truly selfless and benevolent person?
Uchiha Kiyoshi was already prepared.
No matter how much you investigate, how can you possibly see right through yourself?
Just kidding. If such a powerful being could possess such strong detection abilities simply by projecting a wisp of their soul into the Ninja World and manipulating the power of the rules, how would that even be possible?
If you eliminate all the talented and extraordinary individuals, who can threaten you then?
Moreover, the Sage of Six Paths was only one level higher than Uchiha Kiyoshi.
There can't be such a big difference.
Uchiha Kiyoshi kept comforting himself.
After all, if they didn't do this, they wouldn't be able to continue playing the game.
After waiting for a long time without sensing any new movements from the Sage of Six Paths, Uchiha Kiyoshi was finally relieved.
Turning his head, Uchiha Kiyoshi began to consider the gains and losses of this incident.
Yes, gains and losses.
He had indeed been exposed, but not so obviously; only the Sage of Six Paths knew about it.
At the same time, he also gained something.
As the power of the rules led him to his location, Uchiha Kiyoshi also gained something. Experiencing it up close, Uchiha Kiyoshi felt he was about to touch the realm of the rules.
At least, after a few more years of reflection, it won't be difficult to mobilize the power of the rules.
In addition, Uchiha Kiyoshi also confirmed some of his guesses.
Beings at the level of the Sage of Six Paths can indeed disregard the rules of the Yin and Yang realms. Even if they are in the Pure Land, their influence on the Ninja World is effortless.
The ability to manipulate the power of rules—isn't that obvious?
However, there must be some checks and balances on them. Otherwise, if the Sage of Six Paths could simply conduct investigations periodically, his control over the ninja world would undoubtedly be even stronger.
