Disappear.
This word is more disturbing than "destroy" or "exclude".
It means that one hundred kilograms of material carrying the filth of the law of life and death has entered a cycle that cannot be explained by existing logic.
Uchiha Xuan's eyes suddenly became as sharp as a knife, as if he wanted to completely cut open the short line of words on the system panel.
He lightly tapped the armrest of the throne with his fingertips, and the cold touch instantly brought his chaotic thoughts to absolute calm.
He didn't question the system, that was pointless.
The system is just a tool, and its feedback is the result of an operation based on established rules.
When the result exceeds the scope of understanding, the problem must lie outside the rules.
The next second, he closed his eyes, and the huge perception instantly penetrated him like mercury pouring down the ground.
Instead of exploring outwards, you go inward and conduct the most subtle scan of your body.
Soon, he found it.
A trace, no, three traces of alien energy that was so weak that it was almost negligible, was slowly seeping out from three old scars on his body.
Those were the marks left by the scratches left by Truth-Seeking Orb during the final showdown with Six Paths Madara in Fourth Shinobi World War.
Even with his current physique, he can only suppress it, but cannot completely eradicate the Six Paths Power contained in it.
But at this moment, the three scars that had been silent for a long time were like three springs that came to life, radiating a familiar energy outwards.
That's... chakra?
No, that's not right.
It has the activity of chakra, but is mixed with the unique heaviness and filth of the "dead" cells of Impure World Reincarnation.
It was as if the one hundred kilograms of disappeared liquid Impure World Reincarnation were filtered, purified, and transformed by some unknown mechanism, and finally penetrated back into his body along the invisible "cross-time axis link"!
This is no longer a cognitive intrusion, this is reverse pollution on the material level!
[Warning: Non-evolutionary remodeling of host physiology detected.]
[Analytical model: Unknown.]
[Comparison of phenomena... Preliminary judgment is that there is a suspected phenomenon of 'memory materialization'.]
Memory materialization?
Uchiha Xuan felt a chill in his heart.
This means that the "gate" of high-dimensional consciousness can not only implant the script of the "future", but can even reactivate the contaminated "past" - the scars that should have been healed, and use them as the "anchor" for one's arrival in reality!
The "poison" he sent to the past is being transformed by the enemy into a "dagger" to stab himself.
"Interesting."
Uchiha Xuan whispered, there was no emotion in his voice, but under those tightly closed eyes, the storm was already gathering.
He stood up suddenly and disappeared from the throne in an instant.
In the deepest part of Naka River Shrine, the stone door of a meditation room that has never been open to the public suddenly closed.
This is the oldest forbidden area of the Uchiha Clan. The Sealing Jutsu formula handed down from Warring States Era is engraved on the wall, which is completely integrated with the energy flow of the earth's veins.
Uchiha Xuan sat cross-legged in the center of the secret room, and the scarlet Sharingan slowly emerged.
First level·Immovable Wisdom King array.
Second Level: Heart Ape Shackles.
Three levels of disillusionment.
He didn't hold anything back, using his own eye power as the cornerstone, he instantly set up seven interlocking illusion barriers.
These barriers can not only isolate him from all prying eyes from the outside world, but more importantly, they can lock his own consciousness layer by layer inward to prevent him from being snatched away by the unknown existence in the subsequent deep spiritual dive.
After doing all this, he took the initiative to issue an instruction to Myriad Phenomena Devouring System in his body. "Suppress the active analysis function and switch to passive recording mode."
He has begun to suspect that the preference for the negative emotion of "fear" in this system that was born with him may not be simply programmed.
The history of the Uchiha Clan is a history accompanied by curses, hatred, and despair.
Could the system have been unknowingly "infected" by this collective subconscious that has been accumulated for thousands of years?
This time, he will put aside all external forces and use his most primitive will to trace the source of the pollution coming from the reverse flow.
Time passed in absolute darkness and dead silence.
On the first day, everything was calm.
On the second day, the energy dissipation rate of the three scars began to accelerate. In his perception, they were like three miniature black suns, emitting ominous light and heat.
On the third day, late at night.
When Uchiha Xuan's consciousness dived to the deepest level, the scene in front of him suddenly changed.
He found himself standing on a vast plain of ashes.
The ashes underfoot were fine and warm, like a battlefield that had just been extinguished.
There was no sun in the sky, only a huge, strange bloody waning moon, dyeing the whole world an ominous dark red.
And at the end of the plain, stood a figure with his back to him.
The same figure, the same black robe, the same breath.
That's another "Uchiha Xuan".
He seemed to be holding something in his hand, and as he moved, he made a crisp breaking sound.
"Click."
It was a ring, broken in half.
As if sensing Uchiha Xuan's gaze, the figure slowly turned around.
There were no facial features, only a blur of darkness, but Uchiha Xuan could clearly "see" that there was a cold and cruel sarcasm that was exactly the same as his.
At this moment, Uchiha Xuan's real body shook violently!
The pattern of Eternal Mangekyō in his left eye actually started to spin crazily without his will control!
A wisp of black flame as thin as a hair, but condensed to the extreme, burst out from the corner of his eye without warning, crossing the boundary between consciousness and reality, and accurately shot at the heart of the phantom!
Micro Amaterasu!
The moment the black flame touched the phantom, it did not burn. The phantom's figure was like being thrown into the water of a stone, causing ripples in circles, and then slowly dissipated.
A cold voice sounded directly from the depths of Uchiha Xuan's soul, with a hint of teasing and pity:
"What you are burning is not the door, but yourself."
In the meditation room, Uchiha Xuan suddenly opened his eyes!
The seven-layer illusion barrier was safe and sound, and the plain of ashes also disappeared without a trace.
Everything seems to be just a dream.
But he lowered his head and looked at his left arm.
"Click..."
There was a slight but clear crisp sound.
On the skin of his left arm, cracks appeared as fine as spider webs, like delicate porcelain that was about to be broken.
Immediately afterwards, pieces of skin began to peel off, revealing not flesh and blood, but a dark red crystalline tissue with a metallic luster.
He was extremely familiar with this material - it was the obsidian sealing layer that was built on his arm using Power of All Creation when he was trying to completely seal the demon sword "Ghost Cleaver"!
The healed "memory" is "materializing"!
Uchiha Xuan still had no expression on his face.
He just quietly watched his arm "porcelain" inch by inch, then slowly stood up and walked to the corner of the secret room.
There was a simple bronze basin placed there, filled with scarlet viscous liquid - purified Ten-Tails blood.
He immersed his entire left arm in it without hesitation.
"Zila--"
High concentrations of life energy and chakra poured in crazily, like boiling oil poured into fire, and the obsidian crystals on the arms began to fiercely confront and fuse with the new flesh and blood tissue.
After a moment, he pulled out his arm.
The cracks have disappeared and the skin has returned to its original state, as if nothing had happened.
But Uchiha Xuan's pupils shrank slightly.
He clearly felt that the new flesh and blood on this arm had cell textures arranged in a direction completely opposite to that of the rest of the body.
It's like... copied and pasted from the mirror.
He walked out of the meditation room, and a cold voice sounded in the hall, "Chiyo Saori."
"My subordinate is here." Chiyo Saori, who had been waiting outside, immediately appeared and knelt down on one knee.
"Use your 'Heart-Web Threads' to detect the chakra flow rate in the meridians of my left arm and record the data." Uchiha Xuan stretched out his seemingly intact arm and spoke in a calm tone without any explanation.
"Yes."
Chiyo Saori did not dare to neglect at all. She flicked her fingertips, and several Chakra Threads, which were thinner than spider silk and almost invisible to the naked eye, popped out instantly, wrapped gently around Uchiha Xuan's arm, and the other end was connected to a special recording board in her palm.
The moment the silk thread connected to the meridians, Chiyo Saori's fingertips trembled imperceptibly.
That chakra flow... was so smooth, as smooth as a precisely calibrated, lifeless river.
But what made her heart palpitate even more was that under that stability, she vaguely felt a reverse power of rotation, like Uzumaki Clan.
However, before Uchiha Xuan glanced over, she had already regained her absolute composure.
She quickly wrote down the conclusion on the record board and presented it with both hands, "Master Xuan, the meridians are all normal and the flow rate is stable."
Uchiha Xuan took the record board and glanced at the four words "circulation normal" without looking at the back.
And in the palm of Chiyo Saori's hanging hand, she had quietly scratched a deep slant mark on the back of the record board with her fingernails.
This is the agreement she made with herself, an alarm mark that no one knows about.
There is only one line of meaning: the person holding the sword has also begun to be assimilated by the ritual.
Uchiha Xuan took back the record board, and in front of Chiyo Saori, a ball of black flame ignited in his palm, burning it up.
He looked at the scattered ashes and said calmly, "If you find something abnormal next time, there is no need to write it down."
This sentence was like an invisible thunder, making Chiyo Saori's heart suddenly shrink. She was about to respond, but was interrupted by a sudden muffled sound.
"Boom--!"
The voice came from outside Naka River Shrine, dull and depressing.
Uchiha Xuan stared, the surveillance mirror beside him instantly lit up, and the screen switched to the new puppet workshop on the underground floor.
I saw that the brand-new puppet core, which had just been manufactured and had the fragments of the baby's skull buried inside, had been blown into pieces. Without anyone touching it, it had initiated the highest level of self-destruction program.
And in the last frame of the remaining image from the surveillance screen, everyone can see it clearly:
Its last action was to imitate a human posture - raising the robotic arm, gently holding its forehead, and then slowly lowering its head.
That gesture was exactly the same as Chiyo Saori's action every time he saluted Uchiha Xuan.
