The Path Obito Took

"This feeling is amazing!"

At the border of the Land of Fire, Gu Sheng sensed the power within him. It had not increased his strength by much, but this state was truly extraordinary.

Gu Sheng's long hair had turned pure white, fluttering behind him with an ethereal air. He wore a white robe like the Sage of Six Paths, while nine Truth-Seeking Orbs floated in a ring behind him. His arms and legs had also turned black, and he held a Staff of the Sun and Moon in his hand.

"You can keep your promise now, right?"

The Light Shadow of the Sage of Six Paths looked somewhat hazy in the distance. Seeing Gu Sheng in this state, a grave look flashed through his eyes. Gu Sheng in this condition was even stronger than he had been back then.

"Don't worry. You can take him away to be reincarnated."

Gu Sheng waved his hand, and the staff and sage's robes vanished. After exiting Six Paths Mode, the aura around him remained intimidating and had not weakened by much. Instead, it had gained an even sharper, more domineering edge. "I keep my word. As long as Indra's reincarnation doesn't come looking for trouble, I won't take the initiative against him.

"Also, there's one more thing!"

"This is the Yin-Yang Release secret technique you wanted."

The Sage of Six Paths produced a scroll from somewhere and tossed it to Gu Sheng. Before he could say anything else, the Sage vanished with the soul of Madara Uchiha. As their Light Shadows dissolved, Gu Sheng seemed to see a phantom separate from Madara Uchiha's soul under the Sage of Six Paths' control.

"Interesting!"

Gu Sheng glanced over before slowly withdrawing his gaze. The reincarnation patterns of Indra and Asuras seemed to hold more secrets
