Not long after, Jiraiya's face changed slightly, and he felt an inexplicable call coming from the void, but he did not choose to refuse.
As a burst of light flashed, Yan felt the surrounding scene change rapidly. After a very brief period of dizziness, they appeared in an open land in Mount Myoboku.
There are clouds and mist all around, strange flowers and plants emit a faint light, and bursts of Frog Song can be heard in the distance.
Sage Fukasaku stood in front and said to Yan and Jiraiya: "Come with me, Great Toad Sage is waiting for you."
Yan and Jiraiya looked at each other, then followed Sage Fukasaku silently.
As Yan walked, he carefully looked at the environment of Mount Myoboku.
Mount Myoboku The overall terrain is undulating, with towering peaks and deep valleys.
The peaks have different shapes, some are steep and steep, and some are round and gentle, like huge sculptures carved by nature.
The valley is often filled with thin mist, which is like a dream and gives people a deep and mysterious feeling.
There are rocks of different sizes scattered on the ground. After long years of weathering, the surface of these rocks shows mottled textures. Some rare mosses and small plants grow on some rocks, adding a touch of vitality and softness to the hard rocks.
The air here is fresh and slightly moist, and it also carries a faint energy that is completely different from chakra.
This energy should be Natural Energy, which is one of the energies required to turn on Sage Mode.
They walked along the winding path, and occasionally some little Toad poked their heads out to look at them curiously.
Yan noticed that the eyes of these little Toads were shining with smart light, as if they were also full of wisdom.
Soon, they came to an ancient temple.
The walls of the temple are made of huge stones. The gaps between the stones are tight and neat. The roof is covered with a thick layer of moss. The traces of time are clearly visible on the moss.
There are two huge Stone Pillars standing on both sides of the gate. Stone Pillars is engraved with strange runes and exudes a faint light, as if telling the long history of Mount Myoboku.
At this time, Sage Fukasaku stopped and said, "Great Toad Sage is inside! Godaime, please go in."
"What about me?" Jiraiya pointed at himself.
"You stay here!" Sage Fukasaku rolled his eyes and replied helplessly.
"Okay!" Jiraiya scratched his head angrily, and stayed at the gate with Sage Fukasaku.
And Yan took a deep breath and walked into the temple.
As soon as you step into the temple, an ancient and mysterious atmosphere hits your face.
The light inside was very dark, with only a few weak rays of light coming in from the small windows high up, barely illuminating the surrounding environment.
Yan's eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, and he saw that the interior of the temple was very spacious. The ground was paved with flat stone slabs. There were some vague carvings on the stone slabs, which seemed to be some kind of ancient patterns or characters, but because they were so old, they were difficult to identify.
In the center of the temple, Great Toad Sage's huge body lay quietly on a huge stone platform.
The surrounding air seemed to become thicker due to its presence, and Yan could feel a powerful and deep force flowing slowly within its body.
Yan walked forward slowly, and with every step he took, he could hear his own footsteps echoing in the silent temple.
When he was still some distance away from Great Toad Sage, he stopped, nodded slightly and said hello.
"Great Toad Sage, hello,"
Great Toad Sage slowly opened his eyes. Those huge eyes seemed to contain the stars of the universe, which were deep and mysterious.
It glanced at Yan, and then slowly spoke, its voice low and loud, as if it was an echo from ancient time and space.
"Young Hokage, why did you come to see me?"
Yan stood tall and straight and said with a serious expression.
"Great Toad Sage, I just want to ask you a few questions!"
"Please speak!"
"The first question is, what is that Crystal Ball!"
Great Toad Sage was silent for a while, and the surrounding air seemed to become solemn with its silence.
After a long time, it slowly said, "Those Crystal Ball are relics of the ancient era and the crystallization of the power of that era."
"They contain tremendous power that can bring hope as well as destruction."
"..."
Hearing this answer, Yan frowned slightly.
The other party seemed to have said a lot, but they were all specious and contained no important information at all.
"Great Toad Sage, you are playing riddles with me across the distance, you are acting like a magician!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the temple instantly became tense.
Great Toad Sage's huge eyes seemed to flash with an imperceptible light, maybe he was surprised by Yan's straightforwardness, or maybe he was dissatisfied with his attitude.
He was silent for a moment, and then said slowly, "Young Hokage, but the fact is that there are limitations to predicting the future. You can't know it all, and neither can I!"
After hearing this, Yan's head shook up and down, completely assuming that he believed it.
"Then the second question, what is your personal position?"
Great Toad Sage tilted his head and said, "Little friend, please explain more clearly!"
"What is your position? Are you going to resist the invasion from the Otsutsuki Clan in the universe, or will you stand on the side of the winner like you did thousands of years ago?"
There was a trace of scrutiny in Yan's eyes, staring closely at Great Toad Sage, "As for who will be the winner in the end, you don't care, do you?"
Hearing these words, Great Toad Sage's originally unfazed expression suddenly changed.
There seemed to be waves in those huge eyes, with a flash of surprise and anger.
The huge body shook slightly, making the already heavy air around him seem to be filled with lead, making it so heavy that it was almost suffocating.
"How do you know about the Otsutsuki Clan and what happened thousands of years ago?"
Yan still looked directly into Great Toad Sage's eyes and answered word for word, "The truth of history will never be buried by time."
"Since what happened has become the established past, it will one day be known to others!"
"You can't hide it!"
"..."
Great Toad Sage was silent for a moment, like the calm before the storm.
After a long time, it slowly spoke, its voice no longer as low and calm as before, but with a hint of suppressed sullenness.
"Young Hokage, things that happened thousands of years ago are not as simple as you think, and things in the universe Otsutsuki Clan are also far more complicated than you see."
"So!" Yan scolded sternly, "Are you going to put the future fate of Ninja World on those two children now?"
