Magnificent radiance.
It proved the extent of the enhancement.
If Fang Xiu had followed the usual path, it would still have taken him a long time to enter this field.
But the Main God Space had never been a place for taking things step by step or practicing traditional cultivation! As long as he avoided demonic methods, opened his Gene Lock quickly, and earned plenty of side-story rewards and points, what problem could the Great Light Sphere not solve?
"Ahahaha..." Feeling his ocular power surge, Fang Xiu's wild laughter once again echoed through his private space. At last, all his worries about the future were swept away.
What was the point of overthinking? Among the new members, plenty were willing to gamble all their resources on extreme combat builds. They planned to make a killing in the Clover World and gather more resources to catch up with the veterans! And Fang Xiu was their captain.
He was hardly lacking in nerve, either! After all, the ninja system was relatively well-rounded.
In areas such as mental control, explosive damage, reconnaissance, and luring enemies while staying alive, it was first-rate. Its relatively weak defense had also been shored up by awakening Wood Release and manifesting Susanoo.
His feet settled steadily on the ground.
Fang Xiu finished laughing and looked inward at the meridians in his body. Once again, his Yin and Yang were out of balance. His already formidable physical strength had fallen behind his growing ocular power.
But the imbalance was only relative to his own terrifying overall strength!
If the Fusang Ghost King came back to life, Fang Xiu could still beat the hell out of him with nothing but brute muscle and abundant vitality. "Praise the Main God."
Opening his eyes, Fang Xiu simply waved a hand and created a small pool of water with a hand-seal-less ninjutsu.
The surface reflected the image of his right eye.
Amid the pale purple ripples, a windmill formed from connected Tomoe appeared and disappeared from view. It was still in the same straight-bar pattern as before—
During the Fourth Shinobi World War, Madara gravely wounded Sasuke. As Sasuke hovered near death, Yakushi Kabuto implanted Hashirama Cells into his body.
After gaining Asura's power, Sasuke encountered the Sage of Six Paths again and received chakra from him. He quickly awakened the Rinnegan. When his ocular power was full, it had six Tomoe; when he expended too much, the Tomoe temporarily disappeared.
At this stage, Fang Xiu's eyes were somewhat similar in appearance, but he could even temporarily shut off the Rinnegan's ripples in his right eye and return it to Mangekyō form—or take another step back, becoming an ordinary Three-Tomoe Sharingan. He had complete control over its state.
That was the Main God Space for you. Even if an ordinary Uchiha suffered the greatest shock imaginable, they could never awaken the Rinnegan directly from the Sharingan without being one of the two sons of the Sage of Six Paths or a chakra reincarnation. Fang Xiu, however, had ignored that ironclad rule and skipped straight to the end. The whole process had taken five minutes.
His stabilized, everyday six-dimensional stats appeared in his awareness.
Intelligence: E Mental Strength: A- Nerve Reflexes: B+ Muscle Strength: B Cell Activity: B+ Immunity: B+
His already superior mental strength had broken through. Even though Intelligence still looked completely out of place, Fang Xiu didn't care.
The Intelligence stat in the six dimensions of space wasn't the same as IQ. A Reincarnator's thought patterns were practically fixed from the moment they were chosen! "No wonder it's a higher-level ocular technique."
"It's said to be the eye that rules over life and death."
There was no denying the Sharingan's power. When the Mangekyō awakened, it came with a mechanism akin to a small, universal wish-granting machine.
Unfortunately, it didn't come with any inherited knowledge. To learn the two Uchiha forbidden techniques, Izanagi and Izanami, he would need the clan's support and access to the shrine in their homeland.
Since Fang Xiu was wandering abroad and undergoing Reincarnation trials, he couldn't return for the time being...
The Rinnegan, however, was different. In just a few breaths, information on how to use several techniques had turned into a stream of knowledge that Fang Xiu understood automatically.
No need to pay for an exchange!
—Shinra Tensei: One of the Rinnegan's basic abilities. Centered on the user, it repels everything nearby, including objects and ninjutsu, and inflicts damage on them.
—Super Shinra Tensei: One of the Rinnegan's advanced abilities. Using it consumes a huge amount of chakra, but its principle is the same as the basic version.
In the later story of the Naruto World, the Six Paths of Pain concentrated all their chakra in the Deva Path, then unleashed it in a single blast, repelling everything around them across a range of dozens of kilometers.
As a side effect, the Deva Path couldn't use ninjutsu for a long time after the technique was activated. It also shortened Nagato's lifespan.
—Banshō Ten'in: One of the Rinnegan's basic abilities. Centered on the user, it draws a chosen target toward them.
—Planetary Devastation: A forbidden Rinnegan technique, ranked among the highest-level Sealing Jutsu.
"Am I getting carried away? I actually want to fight a team battle now. I can't wait to turn the enemy Reincarnator team's corpses into the Six Paths."
As he examined the inherited knowledge, Fang Xiu felt a little excited. He craved battle—and the chance to satisfy his newly awakened desire to collect the corpses of powerful opponents.
Cruelty?
He didn't raise his teammates like livestock, and he actively eliminated factors that were too overpowered. In a place where raising people like poisonous insects and fighting to the death were the norm, that already made him a paragon of virtue.
"Just as I expected, my Genjutsu has improved too. Sasuke once controlled all Nine Tailed Beasts with a single glance."
"I'm still a long way from that level. With one eye, I've barely touched the edge of the Six Paths realm, and I'm still technically only Beyond Kage Level. But my mental strength has made a huge leap. I can hold Clover in place for a while in a direct fight."
They hadn't even fought yet, but Fang Xiu, whose one eye had evolved ahead of the other, had already reached his verdict. The difference in their levels was plain to see.
"Also, in my last fight against the Ghost King, I only used Takemikazuchi to deliver the finishing blow. Now that Amenotokotachi's power has been enhanced again, it can finally make its debut."
The eternal constancy of the heavens. Stability.
Even without support from the Shazhou Team, he could keep fighting on his own and ignore the strain that the basic Rinnegan placed on his "frail" body.
"I have one C-rank and two D-rank rewards left. I'll stop messing around with flashy, unconventional stuff and streamline my build, getting back to the source."
"Alas, Yin Release has the Corpse-Dissection Immortal's spirit-cultivation method. Yang Release was already at a disadvantage, and now it's fallen even further behind."
"Once I've finished this final round of enhancements, I'll trade reward points for time and master the five basic attributes. Learning Earth Release Sage Mode is inevitable."
"I'll also need to get more practice with Pot Heaven, Moon-Taking, and Dream-Grafting—the traditional divine arts of the Eastern worlds..."
As he pondered, Fang Xiu sent a wisp of thought outward, maintaining his mental link with the Great Light Sphere in the plaza.
—Main God, compile a list of all physical enhancements compatible with the bloodline of the Otsutsuki of the Shinobi World, including but not limited to cultivation techniques and potions.
Exclude options with low growth potential! Exclude all enhancements above B-rank! Ideally, make them a perfect match for my remaining side-story resources, optimizing within the limits! The answer appeared before him at once:
An optimized, condensed Six-Storehouse Immortal Thief cultivation method, source: The Outcast...
I need something a little stronger. Maybe I should go back to the Naruto World and gather resources... I'd like to hear everyone's thoughts.
