The lid was covered in dense, tadpole-like script, and a faint light flickered along the profound, mysterious patterns, as if it had escaped the control of time, quietly waiting for the day it would see the light of day again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Dig, dig, dig, plant a tiny seed, bloom a tiny flower...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The figure who had been lonely in the stone sarcophagus for many years slowly raised her head from the cramped space. Having not heard any sound for a very long time, she now faintly heard singing coming from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How awful...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The space inside the sarcophagus was limited; she couldn't even raise her hands to cover her ears. Helpless, she could only close her scarlet eyes, silently blocking out the demonic singing, and viciously grumbling in her heart:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If I find out who is singing, I will rip their tongue out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...In the extra-large garden, dig, dig, dig, dig, dig up an extra-large seed, bloom an extra... Huh? What is this hard thing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto Uzumaki, who was singing, was digging very diligently. As he dug, his hand suddenly stalled; his golden shovel was blocked by a hard object beneath the soil.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did I dig it up?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surprised, Naruto Uzumaki activated his Byakugan to scan the hard object underground, but he found his vision obstructed. A force was distorting space, preventing him from seeing the object below clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hey! I don't believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Refusing to accept this, Naruto Uzumaki pushed his Byakugan to its maximum power. As he poured in chakra, his Byakugan actually began to slowly penetrate the layer of spatial distortion, faintly revealing a stone sarcophagus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was still blurry. So much for being the strongest X-ray vision; why was it failing now? Naruto Uzumaki’s strange competitive spirit was ignited, and he once again used all the chakra in his body, pouring it into his Byakugan as if it were free.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the chakra was added, his eyes felt as if they were about to burst, aching intensely, but his vision became clearer and clearer. Suddenly, bolstered by the various powers within his body, Naruto Uzumaki’s Byakugan seemed to break through its shackles. A flash of blue light passed, and the previous ache vanished instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Naruto Uzumaki could see his own eyes now, he would discover that his Byakugan had changed drastically. The pure white eyes were now stained with other colors; the sclera was firmly occupied by black, and the pupils had turned a fresh, pale blue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How can I see colors?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blinking his eyes, which felt incredibly comfortable, Naruto Uzumaki discovered that the colors in his 360-degree field of vision had returned; it was no longer the simple X-ray perspective from before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I've heard that the Byakugan can evolve, but this doesn't seem to be the Tenseigan, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took out a mirror to observe his mutated eyes and rubbed his chin, sensing the power contained within them. It did not have the formidable ability of the Tenseigan belonging to Toneri Otsutsuki from the original story.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forget it, the important task comes first; I'll study this thing slowly when I get back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He put away the mirror and used his current eyes to look at the hard object on the ground again. Naruto Uzumaki actually pierced directly through the spatial barrier, clearly seeing a stone sarcophagus covered in sealing incantations. Looking harder, he saw a young girl lying inside, her head lowered, her face obscured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk, plain and unremarkable, but she's really fair... Wait, wait, wait!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not yet used to his ultrasound turning into a color scan, Naruto Uzumaki had seen the girl in the sarcophagus completely. Realizing what happened, he hurriedly deactivated his Byakugan, silently chanting that ignorance is no sin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he had confirmed that the hard object underground was indeed the sealed Xiao Guang, Naruto Uzumaki spat into his palms and raised his golden shovel again to dig diligently, thinking about rescuing the girl as soon as possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thump, thump... thump.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it ever going to end? Who is up there, constantly knocking?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The demonic singing had finally stopped, and just as the girl breathed a sigh of relief, the thumping sound rang out above her head again. Furious, she clenched her fists, gritting her teeth, wishing she could rush out right now and hit the guy above with a Tsukuyomi combo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thump, thump, thump...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is anyone home? The community is here to deliver some warmth!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having finally dug out the entire stone sarcophagus, Naruto Uzumaki wiped away sweat that didn't exist, walked up, knocked on the gate of the sarcophagus a few times, and asked politely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is this guy an idiot?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl trapped in the stone sarcophagus couldn't help but roll her eyes at the inexplicable statement. She wondered, having been sealed for who knows how many years, have the people outside regressed to this point?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But why does the voice sound a bit familiar?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to the rambling voice outside, the girl felt it sounded more and more familiar for some reason, as if it were someone she knew, but the voice of the person in her memory wasn't this listless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...I know you're home. If you have the guts, open the door! Don't hide inside and stay silent...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no, no, I definitely don't know him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl shook her head desperately, trying her best to deny knowing the owner of the voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gin, did you find it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto Uzumaki, who had dug three feet deep, looked up and saw a familiar figure above the deep pit he had dug. He put away the shovel in his hand, flipped back to the ground, patted the dust off his body, and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uncle, why did you only just arrive? I've already dug up the seal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person who arrived was none other than Uchiha Madara, who had been slacking off. He looked solemn, gazed down at the sarcophagus covered in incantations, and frowned as he spoke:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's actually a seal of the Sarutobi clan; that makes things a bit difficult.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The knowledgeable Uchiha Madara recognized the Sarutobi clan crest on the sarcophagus at a glance and also identified that those incantations were unique to the Sarutobi clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it hard to deal with?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Uchiha Madara’s troubled expression, Naruto Uzumaki raised an eyebrow. If it could stump his uncle, it seemed the Sarutobi clan were no ordinary people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph, a mere trifle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The conceited Uchiha Madara would naturally not be intimidated by such a small difficulty. He immediately activated his Sharingan to scan the entire sarcophagus, attempting to find a flaw in the seal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, found it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After scanning for a long time, Uchiha Madara suddenly laughed, leaped down, and waved for Naruto Uzumaki to follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right here, the flaw in the Sarutobi clan's seal!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Based on the flow of chakra in the seal, Uchiha Madara finally locked onto a small, human-like pattern and pointed it out to Naruto Uzumaki:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This Sarutobi clan crest is the key to breaking the entire seal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he placed his hand over it, manipulating his chakra to seep into the seal. After a long while, Uchiha Madara withdrew his hand and looked at the sarcophagus with a complex expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's actually a spatial seal. No wonder it could keep the space within the sarcophagus stagnant and sealed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A spatial seal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this term for the first time, Naruto Uzumaki looked up curiously, his face full of a desire for knowledge as he waited for his uncle's explanation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Sarutobi clan actually used sealing jutsu to isolate a time anchor, locking the sarcophagus containing the nameless girl inside, exiling it into a space outside the flow of time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's my first time seeing it, too.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't forget to add that last part to shift the blame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto Uzumaki was left confused. It sounded like the function of a storage scroll, except that scrolls couldn't hold living things, while this seal could hold a living person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, is she now...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exiled outside of time, what exactly was the girl in the sarcophagus experiencing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She is currently still in the state she was in when she was sealed. Her consciousness should also...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uchiha Madara had only just started speaking when he suddenly remembered that Naruto Uzumaki’s memories had been restored, so he immediately swallowed the second half of his sentence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That means, Xiao Guang has been conscious, lying in a dark, sunless coffin for over a decade?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naruto Uzumaki fell silent. Before coming, he hadn't had any extra emotions, but having watched the TV series for several days and nights, as a viewer, he had long been deeply moved by this girl named Xiao Guang. Therefore, no matter what, he had to rescue this poor girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You old guy, step aside for a moment and let me show you my treasure!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1485,"2026-06-25T11:57:15.904Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","8cf10773c43d61766c06a3298d66cb1a9c73fac212403da8c727e8d1729394cf","konoha-the-thirty-year-old-uchiha-has-no-motivat-chapter-127","konoha-the-thirty-year-old-uchiha-has-no-motivat-chapter-125",603,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fkonoha-the-thirty-year-old-uchiha-has-no-motivat-cover.jpg"]
