Sage Art: Three Great Sage Arts of the Black Scales

"It merely blocks the enemy's sight and hearing with sound and bright light! My Black Radiance Technique can create a field that blocks the five senses of everyone else around!"

The Black Scaled Great Snake was quite proud, without any exaggeration, but it continued, "However, the only drawback is that it's ineffective against enemies who Sage Transformation; otherwise, White Scales wouldn't be a match for me."

Shiyu she heard this.

"A domain that seals the five senses!?"

"This is more than just a little bit stronger? It's ineffective against Sage Transformation? In the original story, there were no more than five people who could Sage Transformation. Wouldn't mastering this move make one invincible?"

However, although Shiyu desperately wanted to learn it, he still shook his head and said, "Let's not talk about that move. The White Scales Serpent seems to have a move called Inorganic Reincarnation! It can give life to inorganic things! Let them all fight! Isn't that strong enough!?"

"Yes, the Reincarnation Ninjutsu, which gives life to inanimate objects and controls them, is indeed very powerful. It can launch surprise attacks, and if the user cannot get close to the caster, they will only face death. But..."

The Black Scaled Great Snake patted its chest and said, "What good is the strength of inorganic matter! Only by reaching the pinnacle of power can one achieve ultimate victory! I possess the Immortal Technique: Eight Dragon Reincarnation!"

"This technique! It can grant you power even more terrifying than Sage Transformation in a moment of crisis! It's like having eight Yinglong dragons possessing you! Inorganic Reincarnation? What's that? It's no match for my Eight Dragon Reincarnation!"

Shiyu still asked, "If you're so powerful, then how come you couldn't defeat the White Scales Serpent?"

"Alas, this tactic cannot last. If it drags on into a protracted battle, the Sage Transformation will be dispelled, ultimately leading to a disadvantageous situation."

Shiyu then fell into deep thought.

"The Eight Dragon Reincarnation is a short-term transformation technique. It should burn one's own Senjutsu Chakra for a certain period of time as the price for invincibility. It probably has a very strong invincibility effect, so one can be fearless of any attack. Sage Transformation is already very strong. I wonder who can stop me after learning this technique? I dare ask, who in this world can force me to use the Eight Dragon Reincarnation?"

"If I use the Black Radiance Technique to seal the enemy's five senses for a certain period of time, and then use the Eight Dragon Reincarnation, will it instantly kill the enemy? No matter how strong the enemy is, they probably won't be a match for me. I also wonder if the Black Radiance Technique can deal with someone like Madara, who is at the peak of the Super Kage level."

However, while Shiyu was deep in thought, the Black Scaled Great Snake patted him Shiyu asked.

"Boy? What are you thinking? These three immortal techniques aren't something just anyone is qualified to learn! Do you want to learn them or not? Or do you still not believe what I'm saying?" The Black Scaled Great Snake asked directly.

Shiyu smiled without saying a word.

Seeing this, the Black Scaled Great Snake finally lost its temper. "You brat, you neither believe nor want to learn!? Yeah! Heh! Today I refuse to believe it! I'm going to teach you anyway! And I'll teach you seriously! I'll show you whether my magic is more powerful, or that old White Scales's magic is more powerful!"

Shiyu was secretly very pleased with herself, but outwardly she pretended to be very resistant.

"My three Sage Techniques! The first one, Six Ding Divine Fire! You've already mastered them all, haven't you? In battle, you need to unleash even more Senjutsu Chakra! That way, you'll have greater destructive power."

"The second technique, Black Radiance Technique! The five senses are: sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch, which are the five human senses: sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch. The key to this immortal technique is to release the Sage Art Black Dragon and use the intense black light to immediately..."

"Finally, the third technique, Sage Art: Eight Dragon Reincarnation! Natural Energy exists in every corner of this world. You need to constantly strive to attract this energy, which will accumulate within your body. Using the Eight Dragon Reincarnation will directly burn all the Senjutsu Chakra in the surrounding area and within your body."

The Black Scaled Great Snake also gave extremely serious instruction. After a while, Shiyu had completely mastered the three immortal techniques. He bowed deeply to the Black Scaled Great Snake and said, "Thank you for your careful instruction of the Black Scale Sage Art! I will go find the White Snake Sage now and see if your immortal techniques are more powerful!" Shiyu then Body Flicker Technique left the place.

After Shiyu left, the Black Snake Sage shook his head with a smile, "This guy is really ambitious. But he has completed the legacy of Ryūchi Cave. Is this the person you predicted would change the Shinobi World? And where will he lead us sages?"

Then, the Black Snake Sage was reduced to a mere shell, and everything around him turned out to be an illusion.

Shiyu also used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to Ryūchi Cave at an incredible speed.

"You've got the weapons and armor, haven't you? I now know that everything that happens in Ryūchi Cave will reach my ears."

"Uchiha Shigure? Next, you have to do one more thing before I will teach you my three Senjutsu."

"Three moves?" Shiyu was also somewhat surprised.

"That's right. Besides the White Impact Technique and Inorganic Reincarnation, I certainly have other Senjutsu up my sleeve. Otherwise, how could I fight that black snake? Hehe." The White Snake Sage spoke with a heavy accent and gave a sly smile, making Shiyu want to laugh.

"What's wrong?" Shiyu asked.

"Deep within Ryūchi Cave lives a giant serpent named Garaga, and I'm at my wits' end with it. You need to gain Garaga's genuine approval and make it willingly become your Summoning Beast. Once you've passed this final hurdle, I will teach you Senjutsu."

Shiyu naturally knew of Garaga's great name and that this guy's saliva could petrify other people's raging serpents.

"The area where Garaga is located is the lair of the most ferocious serpents in Ryūchi Cave, so you'd better be careful. Of course, you can't harm or kill him either, otherwise you won't gain his approval. So, are you still going?" the White Snake Sage asked.

Shiyu confidently gave an OK sign. Although it was difficult to gain the approval of a raging giant serpent, Shiyu was still full of confidence. He was no longer the greenhorn who had just entered Ryūchi Cave.

Following the instructions of the White Snake Sage, Shiyu headed towards the vicinity of the giant snakes' lair.

An eerie mist hung in the air, and deep trenches appeared intermittently on the ground; Shiyu knew these were the tracks left by a giant snake.

And bite marks would occasionally appear on the surrounding tree trunks.

"White Rinnegan!" Shiyu activated his White Rinnegan and instantly saw the petrified giant snake sculptures around him.

"Were these all petrified by Garaga?"

"It really is a very ferocious snake."

"The dense fog is severely obscuring our vision. Sage Mode, please activate!" Because Ryūchi Cave is rich in Natural Energy, and Shiyu had stored up a great deal of it beforehand, he didn't need to condense it before transforming like Naruto Jiraiya.
