A falling meteor like that was generally a warning from the heavens to the mortal world. The meteor that had just fallen should also have been some kind of warning, indicating that something major was about to happen in Buddha Eye Valley.
Thus, over the past few days, Uchiha Shin had remained extremely vigilant, constantly observing the situation in Buddha Eye Valley.
Inside the cave dwelling where Nanshan Monk was cultivating in seclusion, he had now recovered somewhat. He felt that in just a few more days, he would be able to leave this place.
He had discovered that ever since Uchiha Shin had come to his valley, his recovery speed had increased considerably—three or four times faster than before.
Why was that? He did not quite understand it either. Could it be that Uchiha Shin was somehow different, that merely coming here could affect him?
