The correct way for the Uchiha to rise

This time, they're researching the Grim Reaper mask.

The Grim Reaper mask does indeed have its magical properties.

It can act as a medium to transmit the power of the Shinigami from the Pure Land to the Shinobi World. If Uchiha Kiyoshi's guess is correct, the Shinigami mask itself should also be of great significance to the Shinigami.

The mask itself is indestructible, just like the tailed beasts. It seems to possess some kind of indestructible quality. If the mask is broken, it will naturally reappear in another hidden place.

"Speaking of which, when you compare them, the Death Mask really does resemble the Tailed Beasts in this respect!"

Uchiha Kiyoshi hadn't originally planned to study this thing much, but the things he had explored in the memories that his shadow clone had just transmitted caught his attention.

"It has vitality!"

The Grim Reaper mask doesn't seem to be an inanimate object, but rather possesses life, or more precisely, vitality.

It doesn't necessarily mean they possess wisdom or anything like that.

To be more specific, the Grim Reaper mask itself is made of cells!

"It's not a real cell, but a cell-like structure similar to the materialization of tailed beast chakra, existing only in the form of a cell."

The cells of the Death Mask possess basic vitality, much like parts of a Tailed Beast's limbs; they may lack consciousness, but they are inherently active.

Not only tailed beast limbs, Uchiha Kiyoshi also thought of something else.

Intercolumnar cells.

The difference is that the activity of interstitial cells decreases as they divide.

"So, this should be an enhanced version of Hashirama's cells? And it also has the ability to revive like a tailed beast."

To be honest, Uchiha Kiyoshi couldn't achieve the Sage Mode of Hashirama Senju.

Even though he had reached the Golden Core realm, he still couldn't reach the level of Hashirama's cells.

He speculated that the so-called Sage Body's regenerative abilities and massive chakra might be partly due to the Sage of Six Paths' cultivation of Sage Techniques, but more likely it was due to the Sage of Six Paths' own physique.

That is, the constitution of the Otsutsuki clan!

The Otsutsuki clan will never die!

Even if the body is damaged, it can recover. The Sage of Six Paths may not have inherited the perfect genetics, and the inheritance to the next generation may not have been perfect either. This has led to a significant difference between the so-called Sage Body and the physical constitution of the Otsutsuki clan.

"So, the Shinigami mask = the body of the Otsutsuki clan?"

Good heavens, the Shinigami mask was made from the body of an Otsutsuki?

Uchiha Kiyoshi felt as if he had discovered something extraordinary.

It was made from the body of an Otsutsuki, so who is this Otsutsuki?

"grim Reaper!"

Uchiha Kiyoshi himself provided the answer.

Thinking of the image of the Grim Reaper, Uchiha Kiyoshi became even more certain of his guess.

"So, the Grim Reaper is an Otsutsuki? But the Grim Reaper should be a god from a very long time ago. If he really is an Otsutsuki, then it means that Otsutsuki have been around in the ninja world for a very long time."

Not only the Grim Reaper, but also the evil god himself has a similar appearance to the Otsutsuki.

Therefore, the two strongest deities in the Pure Land are both Otsutsuki?

Oh no, there are two more: the Sage of Six Paths and his brother. The two of them are also considered to be in the strongest tier.

But that's even more terrifying!

The four strongest beings were actually all from the Otsutsuki clan!

So, is the Sage of Six Paths a pure-blooded Otsutsuki?

Uchiha Kiyoshi now felt that the answer to this question was a bit beyond his scope. He wasn't sure anymore.

"Wow, this is an amazing piece of news!"

Chapter 433 Escape

Whether the Sage of Six Paths was pure-blooded or not is another matter; what Uchiha Kiyoshi is interested in now is the identity of the Otsutsuki.

Both the Grim Reaper and the evil god could be Otsutsuki!

So, why did they die?

Shouldn't the Otsutsuki possess eternal life?

Could it be that it's not eternal, but just has a longer lifespan?

No, that can't be. According to the deduction, the Grim Reaper mask was made from the body of the Grim Reaper. Since it is still active, it means that the death of the Grim Reaper was not the end of his lifespan!

"There seems to be a big secret here."

Uchiha Kiyoshi thought back for a moment and realized that he didn't seem to know much about the true origin of the Otsutsuki clan.

A deity who would rather die and be transformed into a pure land.

Picture what?

Eternal life? The soul of the Pure Land?

No, none of these are it.

"Stay in the ninja world!"

For some reason, this thought popped into Uchiha Kiyoshi's mind.

Although it seemed a bit far-fetched, Uchiha Kiyoshi felt that his guess was not wrong.

Stay in the ninja world!

Uchiha Kiyoshi had visited the Pure Land before; he knew that the Pure Land was the underworld of the ninja world, and the souls within it were all people who had died in the ninja world.

The entire ninja world and the Pure Land together form a relatively complete system.

As for what happens outside the ninja world, Uchiha Kiyoshi felt that he would be able to find out once he went to explore the starry sky.

In such a vast universe, is there really only one ninja world?

"There must be stars in the ninja world."

Uchiha Rei naturally applied the situation of the universe from his previous life to the ninja world.

In his mind, the ninja world was a planet with a sun and a moon, and then there were other star systems beyond the sun.

"Well, the rules are engraved in the ninja world, and if the soul returns to the Pure Land, then one can remain in the ninja world."

However, Uchiha Kiyoshi really couldn't understand why he stayed in the ninja world.

There's nothing special about the ninja world, is there? Even the Shinigami and the others in the Pure Land aren't exactly living a good life.

"Perhaps they simply don't want to go back?"

Uchiha Sei nodded, agreeing with the guess.

"Sigh, we still don't know enough information."

According to the fragmented information he knew, the Otsutsuki came in groups, seemingly in a master-servant relationship. Therefore, Shinigami and Jashin are not of equal status.

Or perhaps, they were all servants, like Kaguya, beings who killed another comrade.

"Now that you mention it, it does have a sense of fleeing from disaster."

After all, killing the head of the main family would certainly not be accepted by the Otsutsuki clan, and if he returned to the Otsutsuki clan, he would likely face a very cruel punishment.

A punishment worse than death!

"If they ambushed and killed the main family, what about the Divine Tree? Did the Grim Reaper and his group also steal the Divine Tree?"

No, they didn't cultivate chakra, but rather a different system. Perhaps, their timing was different from Kaguya's, and they were forced to kill the main family disciples, so the Divine Tree wasn't planted!

Nodding, Uchiha Kiyoshi agreed with the conjecture.

So, the Grim Reaper cultivated the legacy of the Onmyoji, and the Evil God cultivated sorcery?

Uchiha Kiyoshi didn't really understand the system of evil gods. However, immortality was somewhat like magic, perhaps a similar system of incantations.

"There's one more!"

If the Grim Reaper and the evil god are here to escape, then what about Kaguya?

She used the Divine Tree to activate the Infinite Tsukuyomi and create the White Zetsu army to resist the Otsutsuki, so she doesn't want to go back.

The first time he was sealed by the Sage of Six Paths, he might have been unskilled in combat, or he might not have expected his two sons to do such a thing. But what happened after the seal was broken?

To be honest, Naruto and Sasuke are definitely not as strong as Kaguya.

Even with Kakashi and Sakura included, they shouldn't have the power to seal Kaguya.

"So, Kaguya went easy on you?"

He was sealed away for a thousand years, and then he thought he could stay in the ninja world in this way, so he chose to be sealed away again?

"Perhaps she also sensed the arrival of the other members of the Otsutsuki clan!"

That should solve the problem.

"Wait, there's another point. Why go through all this trouble to stay in the ninja world? Wouldn't it be better to just stay there directly?"

"Does the Otsutsuki clan possess some secret technique that forces them to return? Or, under normal circumstances, would the Otsutsuki sense them and then find their way here?"

"Forget it, forget it. Who cares what the Otsutsuki clan does? As long as they don't get in the way of my cultivation."

With his mind at ease, Uchiha Kiyoshi began to focus all his efforts on developing a technique that would allow the human body to survive in a vacuum.

"In a few days, we will be heading to the stars."

Looking up at the starry sky, Uchiha Kiyoshi also felt a sense of longing.

What would the starry sky of the ninja world be like, a starry sky possessing extraordinary abilities?

......

The Land of Iron.

"Senior, is it really possible to cultivate the path of Qi and Blood all the way through?"

Mifune excitedly grasped Po's hand and asked in a trembling voice.
