Six Paths Sage Technique
Roy leaped backward swiftly, dodging the sudden attack of the White Phosphorus Snake. The ground he had been standing on had been pierced by the White Snake Sage. The strata, which were as solid as steel plates due to the solidification of Natural Energy, were swallowed by the White Snake Sage like thin, crisp biscuits. The saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth even corroded the ground.
"What a powerful and vibrant body! I'm getting more and more satisfied with your body!" The White Phosphorus Snake's eyes gleamed with greed, which made Roy sigh. He was usually the one who coveted other people's bodies, but he never expected to be targeted by a giant serpent this time.
Seemingly noticing the doubt in Roy's eyes, the White Snake Sage patiently explained, "Weak and lowly humans can occupy such a vast and magnificent world, while a powerful and eternal immortal beast like me can only be imprisoned in this cramped space. Even when I am summoned there by spirit communication, it can only last for a short time before I have to return to this dark and damp underground. How unfair is this!"
"I once thought of living in that world in a human body, but unfortunately, the transformed body could not change the essence, and the weak human could not bear my great soul. If there was no other way, it would be fine, but the heavens actually sent you, this perfect natural body, to my doorstep. So, blame it on the fact that you are too powerful and this body is too perfect."
Roy's lips twitched. "I finally managed to transform Hidan's trashy physique into a body that can barely support my own power, and you stupid snake want to steal the fruits of my labor halfway through!"
"Human, there's no need to struggle anymore. You are indeed very strong, perhaps even comparable to the God of Shinobi you humans speak of. It's just a pity that I am a celestial beast that has survived since the true age of gods. Let me show you the power that truly belongs to celestial arts!"
"Immortal Technique: White Excitement Technique!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding air vibrated violently, causing his bones to resonate. Roy even felt a numbness in half of his body. Then his vision and hearing were damaged to varying degrees. Finally, all five senses were completely deprived, as if he had fallen into an endless, deep, dark starry sky.
Seeing Roy stop moving, seemingly lost and confused due to the deprivation of his five senses, the White Snake Sage excitedly stretched his body infinitely, revealing his bloody fangs.
The tips of its fangs gleamed with a dark, eerie green light, its most primal, natural state. A single kiss on Roy's neck would end it all. It would use this flawless body to descend into the real world and create a world for celestial beasts!
However, just as it was getting closer to Roy's body, it heard Roy remained unmoved, say coldly.
"A load of nonsense, you're asking for trouble!"
The ancient longsword, burning with blazing demonic flames, slipped from the opponent's hand. Countless vengeful Vengeful Soul seemed to wail and waile on the blade. Even a single glance filled this thousand-year-old immortal beast with uncontrollable fear.
"No! Wait..."
Ryuchi Cave, which should have been a sacred place of immortal arts, a paradise for all snake-like spirit beasts, is now a hellish cave filled with a sea of foul-smelling blood. Everywhere there are corpses of snake-like spirit beasts. Even the White Snake Sage, who symbolizes the ancestor of snakes, has been cut in two, his wide vertical pupils filled with regret, fear, and resentment.
In fact, the White Snake Sage's true strength was still above that of Roy's body; otherwise, it wouldn't have dared to easily reveal its ambitions.
Unfortunately, it didn't know that under Roy's Observation Haki, the five senses had become negligible. With Roy's intentions being taken by surprise, even this White Snake Sage had cultivated for a thousand years, couldn't react in time.
Roy's confidence in entering Ryuchi Cave alone stemmed from the fact that he had obtained the Seven Star Sword from the original body beforehand, using the meager Sage Art Chakra within him as a fulcrum.
It should be noted that after a thousand years of slaughter, the Seven Star Sword has long since grown into a ferocious weapon with overwhelming killing intent. Apart from Roy, almost no one can suppress it. And Roy after obtaining the Seven Star Sword is far more powerful than before. Even the immortal body of the White Snake Sage could only dissipate in despair after being hit by such a deadly sword.
Now.
A dark green energy shell enveloped Roy's body, making him look like a stone statue that had been abandoned for many years, covered with dark green moss.
As time went on, more and more Natural Energy was absorbed into Roy's body, almost thinning out the space that was filled with Natural Energy, but this was far from the limit.
In the original timeline, Naruto's Sage Mode could only last for a maximum of five minutes during his battle with Pain. Once that time was exceeded, he would exit Sage Mode due to the dissipation of Sage Art Chakra.
Of course, this limitation almost never appeared in the later stages. Although it was due to the Nine-Tails helping to create Sage Art Chakra, judging from the performance of the First Hokage and Yakushi Kabuto, the duration of this limitation should still be linked to the amount of Sage Art Chakra that can be created and stored in the body.
The upper limit of Sage Art Chakra in the body is determined by physical energy and mental energy. For someone like the First Hokage, who stands at the pinnacle of the Shinobi World, maintaining Sage Mode for a day or two is not a problem. For Roy, it is even more so; he can even keep Sage Mode constant.
After all, for Roy, it was actually a very simple thing to do to multitask, to dedicate a portion of his mental will to eternally refine Sage Art Chakra.
"However, Sage Mode offers me only limited improvement. Unless I can upgrade Sage Mode to Six Paths Sage Mode, I won't be able to gain the upper hand in the final battle." Roy was not satisfied with this result. Although his strength at this stage was comparable to that of Sasuke and Naruto after obtaining the Six Paths Power, his ultimate enemy was the god of this world, the entire Otsutsuki Clan. His current strength was still far from sufficient.
"There are two ways to further enhance the strength of this body. One is to cultivate power and start building Dream Domain connects with the original body, allowing the power of the original body to continue to permeate it. The other is to obtain the power of the supreme eye technique while controlling the Sage Body. By combining the two, one can enter the true Six Paths Sage Mode."
"Cultivating power and building Dream Domain is easy enough. We can directly seize the core members of the Akatsuki, then secretly control the power of other small countries and push for the outbreak of the Fourth Ninja World War. Only in the pain and despair brought by war can the people of this world experience the peace and beauty of dreams. At that time, I won't need to deliberately spread it; the people of this world will flock to the power of the Dream Domain!" Roy planned the future of this world with the vision of an ambitious man, without taking the so-called peace to heart at all.
"As for eye techniques, if I forcibly seize the Rinnegan, the result of pushing forward the Fourth Ninja World War will be that I will go from being an observer to a participant. At that time, it will be much more difficult to plan the power of the Dream Domain than it is now."
"Of course, the most important thing is that if I alert the Otsutsuki Clan and they flee to the stars in fear of my true power, it will be extremely difficult for me to find Imu through them."
"Therefore, the best choice is the descendant of Otsutsuki Hamura, who is neglected and abandoned on the moon to fend for himself. Although at this stage, Toneri Otsutsuki has not yet taken Hyuga Hanabi's White Eyed and evolved it into the Tenseigan, that huge Tenseigan formed by the fusion of countless White Eyed can still be used by me!"
