Two completely different chakra flows, scarlet and jet black, intertwined and collided on his body, making a subtle hissing sound, like two giant pythons devouring each other.
With each wisp of scarlet air engulfed by the pitch black, Xuan's aura becomes more concentrated. In the closed gap under the right eye socket, there is a faint purple halo brewing. The outline of half a mysterious reincarnation pattern slowly emerges from nothingness under the wash of this majestic energy, as if a god is about to open up the world and open his eyes to overlook all living beings.
At this moment, a cold mechanical prompt suddenly sounded in his mind, without any emotion, but with the highest level of alarm.
"Warning: Ultra-long-range mental locking signals from four directions have been detected, and the intensity is rising rapidly."
"Signal frequency matching... Matching successful."
"Locked source one: Hidden Leaf Village Anbu·Root. Tracing its historical branches, it is a secret society composed of the most stubborn survivors after the dissolution of the 'Root' organization. It specializes in hunting down those Kekkei Genkai who pose a threat to Hidden Leaf Village."
"Lock source two: Kumogakure'Lightning Eye Society'. A secret organization created by Third Raikage himself. It is responsible for monitoring and recovering all the kenjutsu that have strayed outside. The methods are extremely cruel."
"Lock source three: Kirigakure'Mirror Abyss Group'. Hozuki Clan, inherited from Second Mizukage, specializes in invisible Water Release and subtle mystical arts, and is the natural enemy of all illusion ninjas."
It turns out that under the shadow unknown to the world, the major ninja villages have already laid a dragnet against the Uchiha Clan's Sharingan.
These supervisory organizations hidden in the dust of history are like sharks that smelled the smell of blood, and were awakened from their slumber by the momentary burst of energy in the forbidden place "Eye Mound".
"The warning has been confirmed." A cold female voice came from Xuan's cuffs, which was the auxiliary AI Saori residing in Silver Crow. "Based on the movement speed and energy response of the signal source, we have up to three hours of evacuation window. After three hours, at least three Kage Level and more than ten elite assassination troops will arrive here to form a net of death."
However, facing this lineup that would scare any rebel, Xuan just slowly raised his head, looking through the collapsed cave ceiling and looking at the night sky soaked in blood-colored moonlight.
He put his hands behind his back, and the chakra turbulence around him was like a surrendered guard, quietly surrounding him.
"Let them come."
His voice was not loud, but it carried an unquestionable dignity, as if he was stating an established fact.
"I just need some viewers to see with their own eyes that the so-called forbidden place and the so-called Uchiha Clan curse are just steps for me to step onto the throne of God."
The moment he finished speaking, he made a move with one hand, and a broken stone slab flew into his hand from the depths of the ruins.
On the stone slab, the precise coordinates of "Eye Mound" are carved in ancient characters.
Xuan stretched out his finger, and the tip of his finger ignited a ray of black chakra that was as solid as substance. Using his finger as a pen, he carved a line of inscriptions with flying dragons and phoenixes under the coordinates, but with murderous intent:
"The old gods ate eyes to live, and the new kings ate souls to establish themselves."
After doing all this, he flicked his finger, and the stone slab turned into a black light, and was accurately inserted into a broken stele at the highest point of the ruins of the altar, as if a brand new tombstone had been erected for this tomb.
This is not just an announcement, but a letter of challenge to the entire Shinobi World.
"Let's go."
A simple word, Silver Crow, flew silently from his shoulder, turning into a stream of silver light, followed closely by Xuan's figure, and disappeared into the night in an instant.
While moving at high speed, sudden changes occurred!
Silver Crow, which had been flying smoothly, suddenly let out a shrill wail, and its body shook violently in mid-air, as if it was being held tightly by an invisible big hand.
What's even weirder is that its mechanical left eye, which is the core of its investigation, actually flows out of streaks of dark, ink-like viscous liquid, exuding an ominous aura.
"It's a sign of reverse beacon overload!" Saori's voice sounded urgent for the first time. "The tracker's mental power is too strong and he is trying to forcefully pass through the contract channel between me and Silver Crow to reversely locate our coordinates! This channel... won't last long!"
"Little tricks."
Xuan's eyes did not waver at all, as if everything was expected.
He moved his hands quickly Hand Seals in front of his chest, and a set of dizzyingly complex Indian styles was completed in an instant.
"Illusion·Thought-Severing Flow!"
This is a high-level forbidden technique that he stripped off when he devoured the soul of an ancient priest who was Impure World Reincarnation not long ago.
This technique is not used to attack, but is specifically designed to cut off all forms of spiritual links, whether it is contracts, curses, or tracking secrets.
In an instant, a bottomless black mist exploded with Xuan as the center, shrouding Silver Crow inside.
In the mist, countless twisted runes of resentment flashed away, as if they could cut off cause and effect.
Silver Crow's wings trembled suddenly, and the powerful pulling force from the distance disappeared without a trace in an instant. The black liquid flowing out of his left eye also stopped, and he finally regained his composure.
Almost at the same moment, far away in the unknown secret realm "Empty Cicada Cavern".
An old man "Jueyue" wearing ancient sacrificial clothes suddenly opened his eyes. The huge bronze chime in front of him unexpectedly automatically made a sound of "Dang! Dang! Dang!" seven times in a row, crying blood!
Jueyue trembled all over, and knelt down straight in the direction of Land of Lightning. Gujing Wubo's face was full of horror and confusion, and his voice trembled with fear. "The seven chimes are a sign of 'grave crying'... Before the nine sounds came, the grave was already crying... This world... is about to change hands..."
Beside him, another ninja was lying on the ground, codenamed "Root Tongue". His eyes rolled white and he kept repeating the same sentence, as if he was trapped in some kind of nightmare that he could not escape from.
"... the new name... that name... is engraved into the monument... everyone has seen it... everyone who... remembers it... has seen it..."
His ravings seemed to have a strange magic power. It seemed that at this moment, all the people in Shinobi World who had been related to "Eye Mound", no matter where they were, were being forcibly imprinted with that new inscription in the depths of their memories by an irresistible force.
A few hours later, a temporary camp in the Land of Wind desert.
Xuan sat cross-legged, guiding the newly acquired but still violent energy in his body to impact every meridian.
The scarlet chakra was digested and absorbed bit by bit, and the outline of the half-reincarnation pattern in his right eye became clear and complete at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Just when the supreme Rinnegan was about to be completely formed, a vision appeared in his spiritual sea without any warning:
A vague figure wearing Six Paths Hagoromo and holding a tin staff stood quietly on the cold moon, overlooking everything below.
A voice that seemed to come from an eternity ago sounded directly in the depths of his soul:
"Another existence... that wants to swallow everything. But can you... be able to swallow 'destiny' itself?"
Xuan opened his eyes suddenly!
The left eye is Eternal Mangekyō, and the right eye is Rinnegan that is about to be formed!
The blood-colored light and the purple divine light complement each other. He didn't even use any magic. He just relied on the will to devour all things and cast a cold glance at the illusion in his mind.
"Click--"
The illusion shattered in response, like a shattered mirror.
"Destiny?" The corner of Xuan's mouth raised a cold arc, "That kind of thing, when I chose this path, I already didn't believe in it. I only believe that if this mouthful continues, it will make me stronger."
The next morning.
A piece of news spread like a prairie fire through the Five Great Nations high-level officials at an alarming speed: "Sin Bone Mound", located on the border of Land of Lightning and classified as an S-level restricted area, was reduced to scorched earth overnight.
All the precious eyeballs sealed inside, whether Byakugan or Sharingan, disappeared, leaving no traces of battle on the scene, only a dead ruin.
The only clue was the stone tablet inserted in the center of the ruins, and the arrogant words on it that could send chills to all the shadows.
High-level officials from various countries were furious, and an unprecedented Five Kage emergency secret meeting was quickly prepared in secret.
And in the deepest part of the unknown Land of Wind desert, on a strange altar made of countless White Zetsu skeletons, a new, pale white neural tentacle was slowly rising from the core of the altar.
At the top of the tentacles, flesh and blood squirmed, and a vague human face was slowly outlined - that face looked like Obito Uchiha, which had already "died" in Battle of Kannabi Bridge!
His lips moved slightly, without making any sound, but he mouthed two words silently:
"... Coming..."
Wind and sand swept through the temporary camp, blowing the embers of the campfire.
Xuan was still regulating his breath with his eyes closed. Silver Crow beside him stood quietly on a rock, combing his feathers.
However, in the gap of its mechanical left eye that had just returned to normal, there seemed to be a trace of extremely light and fine black liquid, which was stubbornly seeping out against the wind and sand.
