Wherever it went, the land of Mount Myoboku began to tremble violently, and huge cracks spread rapidly like a spider web, as if the earth was being mercilessly torn apart by a pair of invisible giant hands.
The mountain range shook even more violently, and huge rocks tumbled down, crashing to the ground like raindrops, creating a deafening roar and raising clouds of dust.
The entire Mount Myoboku seemed to be groaning in pain, every inch of its land was screaming in despair, and the former tranquility and peace were long gone.
Seeing this, Yan showed no pity in his eyes and continued to increase his strength without expression.
The power of space, like countless sharp blades, gradually eroded the foundation of Mount Myoboku.
The image of Mount Myoboku became increasingly surreal; the trees, flowers, rocks, and all other scenery on the mountain began to blur, resembling a watercolor painting washed by rain.
Just as Mount Myoboku was about to disappear completely, the Great Toad Sage arrived with the other sages.
"Yan, you can't do this! Mount Myoboku is the sacred ground of the Ninja World, bearing countless lives and memories. If you destroy it, you will surely suffer divine retribution!"
The other immortals also gathered around, each with an angry expression and a resolute look in their eyes, ready to fight Yan to the death.
Yan merely glanced at them indifferently, a mocking smile playing on his lips, as if laughing at their overestimation of their abilities.
With a gentle wave of his hands, a massive spatial barrier instantly appeared around the Great Toad Sage and the other immortals.
This barrier was like a transparent prison, trapping them tightly.
For a moment, various lights flashed and exploded on the barrier, but the spatial barrier remained as solid as a rock, blocking all their attacks.
Ignoring their struggles, Yan turned away and continued focusing on peeling away Mount Myoboku.
As the spatial power continued to erode, Mount Myoboku, along with the Great Toad Sage, the other sages, and all the creatures on it, eventually transformed into a dazzling light, which was slowly absorbed into Yan's hand.
Holding the light tightly, feeling the immense power it contained, my heart was filled with anticipation for the challenges ahead.
" Otsutsuki Kaguya, it'll be soon, I'm almost ready," Yan murmured to himself.
Then the figure gradually blurred, like a candle flickering in the wind.
It gradually disappeared from this space that once belonged to Mount Myoboku.
Only a silent and empty void remains, as if silently recounting the earth-shattering changes that once took place here.
After leaving Mount Myoboku, Yan arrived at the location of Ryūchi Cave in the blink of an eye.
Ryūchi Cave is hidden deep in the earth, surrounded by an ancient and mysterious aura, as if it has been sleeping since ancient times.
The entrance to Ryūchi Cave is hidden in a dense forest, surrounded by tall, twisted trees whose branches intertwine to form a natural barrier.
Sunlight could only filter through layers of branches and leaves, casting dappled shadows and making the entrance appear gloomy and eerie.
As soon as you approach the entrance, a strong venomous scent hits you.
In an instant, countless brightly colored venomous snakes surged out from all directions like a tidal wave, their mouths wide open, revealing sharp fangs, and spewing out streams of black venom.
Yan Shen's expression remained unchanged, and he continued walking. He simply waved his hand, and an invisible shield of spatial power unfolded in front of him.
The venom splashed onto the spatial energy, making a sizzling sound, but it couldn't penetrate it at all. It could only flow down the shield and gather on the ground into a pool of foul-smelling poisonous water, corroding the surrounding land.
Seeing that its attack was ineffective, the venomous snake twisted its body even more frantically, trying to bypass the spatial power to attack Yan.
However, a hint of impatience flashed in Yan's eyes.
"Space Strangulation!"
In Setsuna, the space around Yan twisted and deformed.
The snake's body was instantly twisted and torn apart, blood filling the air like mist, accompanied by a continuous, pitiful hiss.
Having dealt with the venomous snakes' attack, Yan continued deeper into Ryūchi Cave.
The cave was dark and damp, with faint phosphorescence shimmering on the walls, as if countless eyes were peering into the darkness.
Cold water droplets dripped from the cave ceiling from time to time, hitting the ground with a crisp sound that echoed in the silent cave, sending chills down one's spine.
As they walked, a huge python suddenly appeared in front of them, its body like a small mountain blocking the middle of the road.
Upon seeing Yan, it immediately opened its blood-red maw, and a powerful suction force surged from its mouth, attempting to swallow Yan directly into its stomach.
Yan sneered, and in a flash, he appeared on top of the python's head.
"Boom!"
With a loud crash, the python's head was smashed deep into the ground, and the enormous impact caused the entire cave to tremble violently.
Stones fell from the cave ceiling, splashing dust as they hit the ground.
"Roar!"
The python struggled in agony, its massive body rolling wildly on the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.
Yan, however, gave it no chance to breathe, summoning several spatial blades.
"Pfft!"
The spatial blade pierced through the python's body in an instant, and blood gushed out like a fountain, staining the surrounding ground red and forming a pool of blood.
The python's struggles gradually weakened, and it finally collapsed helplessly to the ground, lifeless, its massive body completely blocking the road.
Yan waved his hands lightly, and spatial power surged forth, moving the python's corpse aside before continuing on his way.
They soon arrived at the depths of Ryūchi Cave.
An even richer Natural Energy permeates this place, swirling in the air in a serpentine form, radiating an eerie green light, as if it were the very soul of Ryūchi Cave.
At the center of the energy, the White Snake Sage Immortal sat cross-legged on a huge rock, his eyes filled with vigilance and anger.
Behind her were three other attractive women.
"Why have you trespassed into my Ryūchi Cave?"
Yan looked up at the White Snake Sage and calmly said, "I want the Ryūchi Cave. If you behave yourself, you might still be able to save your life."
The White Snake Sage sneered, "Arrogant! How dare an outsider like you lay a finger on the power of Ryūchi Cave!"
Having said that, the White Snake Sage opened his mouth and spat out a huge beam of energy, like a shining spear, which shot straight toward Yan.
Wherever the beam of light touched, space itself was scorched and distorted.
Yan slightly raised his hand, and a spatial barrier appeared in front of him.
"Bang!"
The energy beam struck the barrier, sending up a burst of dazzling sparks.
"That's interesting."
Yan quickly Hand Seals, and a huge black Uzumaki appeared behind him.
With a wave of his hand, countless black spatial blades shot out from the Uzumaki, flying towards the White Snake Sage like raindrops.
Upon seeing this, a green energy shield instantly appeared around the White Snake Sage's body.
The spatial blade struck the shield, producing a series of loud bangs and creating ripples, but it still stubbornly resisted the attack.
