A Provocation to the Black Scaled Great Snake

In an instant, the Dragon Fang blade changed again, taking another big step closer to achieving its goal.

Shiyu used the large hammer to strike, and every so often the Black Snake Sage would come and gently tap it with a small hammer. This was repeated five times before the Black Snake Sage finally finished the job with a single blow, and a flawless, pure white Dragon Fang Blade appeared before Shiyu.

"Two hundred and fifty thousand times, is it over?" Shiyu seemed to feel a little unsatisfied.

"It's over, why do you still want to continue?" The Black Snake Sage shook his head with a wry smile, "You really get absorbed in what you do!"

"The weapon is finished. As for the dragon scale armor? Leave it to me." The Black Snake Sage walked towards the dragon scales, picked up the small hammer in his hand, and simply hammered it a few times. A magical thing happened, and a complete set of white Dragon Scale Armor appeared.

"Dragon scale armor, dragon scale leg armor, ninja footwear, and ninja gloves."

Shiyu immediately got to the crucial point. "Wearing armor made of dragon scales, how tiring would that be?"

The Black Snake Sage smiled and said, "You can give it a try."

Shiyu discovered that even after deactivating Sage Mode, the armor on his hands was still very light.

"Don't worry about the weight. This armor is made specifically for you; no one else could possibly lift it."

Shiyu then asked another question.

"I can't fit into this armor at all right now. Is it a bit too big?"

The Black Snake Sage laughed, "Dragons are said to be able to appear and disappear, to be small or large, short or long. Your armor, being a divine artifact, can do everything except make you invisible!"

"Huh? That's amazing?" Shiyu said, somewhat incredulous.

"Smaller! Smaller!"

A miraculous scene unfolded once again: the dragon scale armor before them shrank just like the Adamantine Staff).

In the end, Shiyu put on the armor that fit perfectly, and sure enough, her body remained as light as ever.

However, Shiyu shook her head again and said, "Immortal, although I can wear it, it feels a bit uncomfortable. It seems like the sharp Kakuzu prick me."

"Who told you to wear a ninja uniform and armor?" The Black Snake Sage slapped his forehead and gave a wry smile.

The Black Snake Sage then took out a set of black bodysuits and said, "You need to wear bodysuits before you can wear armor. This bodysuit is the snake skin that my predecessor, who transformed into a dragon, shed during his evolution when I came to Ryūchi Cave. It's comfortable and breathable, warm in winter and cool in summer. You're really lucky this time!"

Then Shiyu quickly changed into a bodysuit and armor, looking quite menacing, which even captivated the Black Snake Sage.

"You forgot your dagger." The Black Snake Sage threw the dagger at him, Shiyu raised his hand and grabbed the Dragon Fang Blade.

"There are still some Dragon Scale Armor pieces left, so I'll make you a scabbard." The Black Snake Sage tapped the scabbard again with his small hammer, and handed a white scabbard to Shiyu.

"Not only that, these gloves and footwear are also made of extremely precious materials."

It's impossible for Shiyu not to be happy about these gains.

But it's impossible that the Black Snake Sage would do so much for himself just because he was a threat.

When the Black Snake Sage fought me, he definitely concealed his true strength.

"Black Snake Sage? Why are you helping me like this? What's your purpose? Just tell me what you want me to do for you!" Shiyu said bluntly.

The Black Snake Sage smiled and said, "You are indeed clever. Actually, what I want is very simple: I just want to take you as my disciple. I will pass on all my immortal techniques to you, which will be a way of passing on my knowledge."

"You want me to become your disciple?" Shiyu was also somewhat incredulous.

"Yes." The Black Snake Sage nodded.

" In Ryūchi Cave, there are two Snake Sages. One is the White Snake Sage, the White Scales Serpent, and the other is me, the Black Scaled Great Snake."

"White Scales's immortal techniques are completely different from mine. Human powerhouses who pass the trials often seek out White Scales to learn immortal techniques. Humans consumed by desire can only become slaves to power and creators of slaughter."

"Therefore, all the humans who received the Ryūchi Cave's inheritance in the past were people of unwavering resolve yet filled with evil thoughts, but in reality, this is not the case."

"My Black Scale Immortal Technique is completely different from White Scales's. I am the true immortal who has inherited the will of the immortals! Yet, Black Scale Sage Art is unknown to everyone, which greatly puzzles me."

"If White Scales doesn't want to use me to get rid of you, then it means it approves of you!"

"And you have indeed passed my test! So I can teach you my Black Scales Sage Art! And the White Scales Senjutsu will also be taught to you by it. You will be the Snake Sage fully inherits the Senjutsu of my Ryūchi Cave!" The Black Snake Sage said excitedly.

However, Shiyu looked at the Black Snake Sage with a dark expression. "Oh? Such a good thing? Could there be some kind of conspiracy?"

"Nonsense, you have the Dragon Fang Blade and you're wearing the Dragon Scale Armor! You've got all the good things. Consider those my greeting gift to you!"

"Didn't I build that myself?" Shiyu was also a little confused at this point.

"I was helping you cultivate your Senjutsu! You can feel it! See how much your chakra has increased in the past two months!" The Black Snake Sage was somewhat helpless. He didn't know if this kid was clever or not; he got the advantage and then started playing dumb.

Shiyu hammered the hammer hundreds of thousands of times, exhausting his chakra once again. He then asked Blackscale for another Sage Pill and swallowed it.

Then Shiyu opened his eyes in disbelief. He could feel his chakra surging again! Although he was still at the Kage Level, the purity of his chakra far surpassed that of his previous self.

If we compare the previous chakra to a sea one thousand meters deep, then now it's five thousand meters deep!

Although the width has not changed much, the depth has changed dramatically.

Seeing Shiyu's horrified expression, Heilin nodded. "Now you understand, right? Whether you're using Sage Mode to pull the bellows or swing the hammer, it's all part of my training for you."

"Now you are qualified to learn true immortal techniques." Hei Lin patted Shiyu on the shoulder, instilling in Shiyu a sense of mission.

However, Shiyu shook her head, looking disgusted, and said:

"Who said I wanted to learn your immortal techniques? Or become your disciple? Even the White Scales Serpent, when teaching others immortal techniques, didn't ask them to call him master. I think you should learn from the White Scales Serpent; you're probably not as capable as her."

"Haha! Me? Black Scale? You think I'm less capable than the White Scales Serpent? Are you kidding me?" The Black Scaled Great Snake was equally unconvinced.

"You know about the White Snake Sage's White Impact Technique, right? It can instantly paralyze enemies, rendering them unable to fight! Isn't that powerful enough?" Shiyu said deliberately.

"White Impact Technique? What kind of trash Senjutsu is that!"
