Chapter 185: New Inheritance

"Nagato, that guy, actually has such a troublesome ability!"

Inside the Hokage Office in Konoha, Uchiha Feiyu frowned and said with some distress.

With the Six-Tomoe Rinnegan and a Truth-Seeking Ball behind him, Nagato's basic Power Level now surpassed even Uchiha Feiyu's, and with the addition of Takamagahara, which extremely countered his own abilities, Uchiha Feiyu didn't even dare to show his face for the time being.

"So what if his ability is a bit troublesome? Hasn't he always been played in the palm of your hand?"

Tsunade rolled her eyes and said. Just a moment ago, this Fifth Hokage had finished hosting Nagato, conducted bilateral exchanges with this savior of the Ninja World, and decided to jointly hunt down the famous terrorist of the Ninja World, Uchiha Feiyu.

It could be said that Nagato himself was kept completely in the dark by Uchiha Feiyu; he could never have imagined that four of the Five Great Shinobi Villages were under Uchiha Feiyu's command.

"Besides... isn't that girl named Konan also your person! With spies planted all over him like this, no matter how strong Uzumaki Nagato is, he will eventually be tricked to death by you!"

Uchiha Feiyu's expression was calm, with no sense of triumph:

"Actually, it's not that easy. It's mainly because Nagato trusts the power of his own Rinnegan too much, and it's impossible for him to imagine that four of the Five Great Shinobi Villages are my subordinates, or that Konan could have been turned into one of my own within three days."

The Joyous Union Canon has a limited ceiling; the strongest woman it can control is only at the peak of Shadow-level. Unless she levels up under Uchiha Feiyu's control, he certainly cannot control a woman at the Super Kage level.

Of course, apart from Otsutsuki Kaguya, there are probably no other Super Kage-level women in the entire Ninja World, so this restriction is actually meaningless.

As for what choice Iwagakure will make after their strength recovers in the future, it is unclear. Considering Nagato's strength, perhaps these ninjas really regard Nagato as Senju Hashirama, preparing to simply wait him out until he dies.

The original Akatsuki was affected by the aftermath of the battle between Uchiha Feiyu and Nagato, losing more than half of its ninjas. Now, with the help of Iwagakure, it has recovered quite a bit of strength.

However, the most important auxiliary cultivation function of the Joyous Union Canon is also useless to Uchiha Feiyu, and instead, it has been developed by Uchiha Feiyu into a form of control ability.

Given the character of the ninjas in Iwagakure, the more precarious their situation, the more they will show a tough exterior to the outside world. One can imagine what kind of conflict will occur when they encounter Nagato, this "Child of Prophecy" who thinks highly of himself.

However, after Nagato displayed such powerful strength, Iwagakure surrendered without hesitation, and they surrendered much more thoroughly than the other Ninja Villages, even going so far as to send a team of ninjas to specifically join the Akatsuki under Nagato.

In such a weak state, they certainly cannot implement any aggressive policies. On the contrary, Iwagakure hopes even more that the entire Ninja World will coexist peacefully, giving them time to slowly recover their strength.

They were even extremely resolute in supporting Nagato's proposal to resolve the disputes of the Ninja World through peaceful coexistence and dialogue; they were just one step away from letting Nagato become the Fourth Tsuchikage.

As for things like Doshen Jue or Kotoamatsukami, they ultimately require the power of chakra. Nagato might not be able to dispel this kind of Genjutsu, but he would definitely be able to see that something is wrong.

Even so, because of the impact of Shinra Tensei, the mountain range where Iwagakure was located suffered a large-scale landslide, damaging its foundations and forcing the entire village to relocate. Coupled with the ninjas killed by Nagato during the initial provocation, the losses can be described as extremely heavy.

"By the way, I remember Nagato said that the next Ninja Village he is going to is Iwagakure... Heh heh, I wonder if he will wipe out the entire Iwagakure after he goes there?"

But as for Iwagakure, they have no idea what kind of strength Nagato possesses!

And because of Uchiha Feiyu's actions to collect tailed beasts, this Ninja Village is now suffering heavy losses. Two jinchuriki, the Third Tsuchikage Onoki of Iwagakure and his son Huangtu, have all died at the hands of Uchiha Feiyu, and the entire line of Shadow-level ninjas in Iwagakure has been cut off!

Seeing Iwagakure's choice, Uchiha Feiyu immediately understood their thoughts: they want to use the Akatsuki to get in touch with Nagato, so that Nagato can protect them through this dangerous period in the future.

Whether it is the Sunagakure of the Land of Wind or the Konoha of the Land of Fire, the reason they acted neither humble nor arrogant toward Nagato, and showed no greed for the Rinnegan, was because of Uchiha Feiyu's instructions; they had long since known about Nagato's strength.

"Tsk... Iwagakure's performance is really ugly. Are they preparing to hug Nagato's thigh?"

—In fact, they have no choice but to support the peace policy. The current Iwagakure has the largest number of ninja troops among the Five Great Shinobi Villages, but there is no one in the upper echelons who can fight. They can't even find a single Shadow-level powerhouse. If a real fight broke out, any one of the other four Ninja Villages could beat them to a pulp.

—This was Nagato showing mercy. Otherwise, if this move hadn't been aimed at the mountain next to Iwagakure, but had been a major move unleashed directly inside Iwagakure, there probably wouldn't be any survivors left in the entire village.

"It's hard to say... but the current Iwagakure is too weak to pose any threat to Nagato. In this situation, even if they offended Nagato, Nagato might show more leniency."

Looking at the entire Ninja World, whenever there is a relatively long period of peace, it is generally because some big shot has completely suppressed the entire Ninja World, such as the early period of Otsutsuki Kaguya's rule, the period when the Sage of Six Paths founded the Ninja Sect, the stage when Senju Hashirama and Madara Uchiha joined forces, or the period after the Fourth Shinobi World War when Indra and Ashura reconciled.

Tsunade smiled and said something as if she had thought of something, and Uchiha Feiyu just shrugged at this:

The most important thing is that the Joyous Union Canon itself does not belong to the chakra system. This implicit control through yin-yang Dual Cultivation, because it only involves some changes in spirit and body and does not involve the circulation of chakra, even if Nagato possesses the Rinnegan, he cannot see any abnormalities.

In fact, very soon, Uchiha Feiyu received intelligence that the unlucky Iwagakure had been soloed by Nagato again, and the mountain next to the entire village had been hit by a Shinra Tensei and completely leveled.

Now Nagato also has this kind of deterrent power... if one does not count Uchiha Feiyu.

Hearing Uchiha Feiyu's evaluation of Iwagakure, Tsunade said with a solemn expression:

"Given the current situation of Iwagakure, it is not surprising that they made such a choice. The key is, what do you plan to do, Feiyu?"

"That guy should be hard to deal with now, right? Just from Konan's description, one can imagine how that Takamagahara counters you."

"What's more, there is still that Sage of Six Paths hiding in the Pure Land. Who knows what other trump cards he might have?"

"The Sage of Six Paths... if only I could find the Pure Land. It's a pity that the Great Toad Sage died before I went to Mount Myoboku!"

In Uchiha Feiyu's speculation, the Great Toad Sage of Mount Myoboku was probably the most likely person to know how to get to the Pure Land. After he died, no one in the entire Ninja World probably knew how to get to the Pure Land.

Even if that big toad didn't know how to get to the Pure Land, at least he had some connection with the Sage of Six Paths. If he could lure the Sage of Six Paths out through that big toad and directly manipulate the other party's Soul, then there wouldn't be this whole Nagato business.

Uchiha Feiyu highly suspected that the Great Toad Sage actually died on purpose, and even passing on his techniques to Nagato was just incidental, just to prevent his Soul from falling into his own hands.

During this time, he had also thought it through quite clearly: why did the Sage of Six Paths not dare to appear in front of him at all? Why, even when he wanted to save Nagato, did he pull him directly into the Pure Land?

It is very likely that those weak ninja Souls he abandoned back then fell into the Pure Land and were discovered by the Sage of Six Paths. And the Sage of Six Paths told this information to the Great Toad Sage, which is why the Great Toad Sage made this decision.

It is meaningless to think about the miscalculations of the past now. Besides, the Uchiha Feiyu of that time would not have thought that the Souls he abandoned would bring so many problems; he didn't have any ability to foresee the future.

However... if no one in the Ninja World knows how to get to the Pure Land, then what about outside the Ninja World?

Uchiha Feiyu looked up. Even though it was daytime, his extraordinary eyesight still allowed him to see the faint outline of the Moon of the Ninja World.

"I remember that on the Moon, there is still the Soul of Hamura Otsutsuki, or should I say, a remnant Soul? Would this younger brother of the Sage of Six Paths know information about the Pure Land?"

"But going to the Moon is not an easy task, and the younger brother of the Sage of Six Paths is probably not some small fry."

In the original work, the younger brother of the Sage of Six Paths naturally could not compare to the Sage of Six Paths in strength, but he could still be considered a powerhouse of the same level. Although he did not give people power-ups like the Sage of Six Paths in the later stages or display much power, Uchiha Feiyu would not believe that he was just a wisp of a remnant Soul without any power.

What's more, his information had long been known to the Sage of Six Paths. Given the personality of the Sage of Six Paths, he had probably already notified his younger brother. The possibility of him running to the Moon and not finding the Soul is even greater.

Thinking it over, unless he is willing to continue developing along the power of the Otsutsuki Clan and swallow the Pills he has accumulated, it might be possible to kill Nagato in a counterattack.

Otherwise... the only way is to start changing his cultivation!

Completely stripping away the power of the chakra system and converting it into another more powerful cultivation system with more potential is the best choice for Uchiha Feiyu.

"First, think of a way to strip away or swallow and contain the power of the chakra system..."

Night slowly descended. Uchiha Feiyu, staying in the Senju Clan where Tsunade was, slowly closed his eyes and concentrated his spirit into the space of the Book of Demonic Inheritance.

In the dark space, Uchiha Feiyu calculated the Black Qi of the offerings he had obtained, which was nearly 60,000, making a look of heartache appear on his face.

If he were given a few more years, he could increase the offerings in the space tenfold, and by then he would definitely be able to exchange for a more powerful cultivation system.

But for now, he could only try first to see if he could obtain a cultivation system that he could use.

"Perhaps I can decompose those cultivation systems. I only need to lay a foundation at the beginning. In this way, even if the offerings sacrificed at the start are not many, I can still obtain the prerequisite realms of some powerful cultivation systems."

"Let me try first to see if there is a way to process chakra without affecting my potential and Power Level!"

As Uchiha Feiyu moved his mind, tens of thousands of strands of Black Qi instantly evaporated completely. The entire Book of Demonic Inheritance shook a few times and opened its pages again; black flames of energy meandered and flowed, transforming into a transmission of information to Uchiha Feiyu.

In reality, the scale of this sacrifice by Uchiha Feiyu was no less than the time he wiped out the fifty thousand ninja soldiers of the Land of Wind. Although there were only tens of thousands of strands of Black Qi, the quality of this Black Qi was far superior to those soldiers who had only just cultivated chakra; relying on this ultra-high quality compensated for the gap in quantity.

Therefore, the quality of the inheritance that responded to Uchiha Feiyu this time was not inferior to the Secret Technique of the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art!

"This is... the Shenzong Demon Sect Cultivation Method?!"

Slowly recovering from the information, a look of surprise appeared on Uchiha Feiyu's face.

The Shenzong Demon Sect, originating from the Xianhu World, is a cultivation method specifically for cultivating bloodlines.

The humans of the Immortal Lake World were meticulously created by the Seven Phoenixes of Creation and naturally inherited the bloodlines of Innate God and Demon. Through the cultivation of the Divine Sect Demon Sect, those ordinary humans could even revert to the bodies of Innate God and Demon, transforming into true Divine Dragons, Heavenly Phoenixes, Kirin, or Kunpeng.

Not only that, but after cultivating the Shenzong Demon Sect Cultivation Method to a high level, one could even mix originally different Innate God and Demon bloodlines into one, transforming into an even more powerful fused Innate God and Demon.

To be precise, it should not be called transforming into a more powerful Innate God and Demon, but rather evolving into a stronger Innate God and Demon!

The Divine Sect Demonic Gate Arts can be called a first-class bloodline cultivation method; even looking across the heavens and myriad worlds, there are not many that can compare to it.

However... with a mere 10,000-plus strands of Black Qi, one naturally cannot obtain the complete Shenzong Demon Sect Cultivation Method. Just like what Uchiha Feiyu obtained back then was only some Secret Techniques of the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art, what Uchiha Feiyu obtained this time was also only the first five levels of the Shenzong Demon Sect Cultivation Method.

With the Shenzong Demon Sect Cultivation Method, as long as one cultivates to the fifth level, one can re-purify and condense the bloodline within one's body, transforming it into a Pure-blood Clone.

In other words, through the Shenzong Demon Sect Cultivation Method, Uchiha Feiyu could completely condense an Otsutsuki Clone and entrust the chakra system upon it.
