Lie Down in My Drool

The moment the contract was formed, Uchiha Huan's vision blurred, and he arrived in a sticky world along with the Summoning Scroll.

Everything here was covered in mucus, and the mucus was corrosive.

Uchiha Huan noticed that his shoes were already beginning to corrode.

When he lifted his feet, strands of mucus stretched beneath them.

When Uchiha Huan looked up, he saw a mountain of white flesh.

It might have been ten thousand meters long; he could not see its end at a glance.

Its round body was estimated to be two or three hundred meters in diameter.

Was this the Slug Sage's true body?

In the original story, the Slug Sage had said that no one had ever been able to summon her true body. All contract holders could only summon a portion of her Clone Technique.

Hashirama Senju might have possessed that ability, but he had no need to summon the Slug Sage at all.

After all, there had never been anyone in this world who could make him summon help.

The Slug Sage sensed Uchiha Huan's arrival, then split off a plump white slug several meters long. It wriggled over to stand before him.

"Hm? You carry Lord Hashirama's aura, as well as Lady Tsunade's scent. Are you this generation's contract holder?" The plump white slug noticed the Summoning Scroll in Uchiha Huan's hand. "Did Lady Tsunade give it to you?"

"Yes, I am Lady Tsunade's disciple."

"How should I address you?"

"My name is Huan."

"Then I shall call you Lord Huan." The plump white slug said, "Do you only wish to form a Summoning Contract, or do you want to learn Sage Art?"

Uchiha Huan said directly, "I want to learn Sage Art."

"Then shall we begin now?"

"Let's begin. What do I need to do?"

"Please wait..." The plump white slug suddenly spewed out a huge amount of mucus, filling a depression before it with slime. "Now lie down inside it. Do not let the mucus corrode your body. As long as you can endure it, Sage Art Chakra will seep into your body."

Uchiha Huan looked at the huge puddle of mucus and could not help swallowing.

"Did Senior Hashirama also cultivate Sage Art here?"

"Yes. Lord Hashirama was the most powerful of all contract holders. I had never seen a contract holder as powerful as him. He took no protective measures at all and simply lay in my mucus, relying on his powerful regenerative ability to absorb Sage Art Chakra."

Powerful regenerative ability? Uchiha Huan did not seem to possess Hashirama Senju's powerful regenerative ability.

"Slug, I plan to cultivate Sage Art another time. Is that alright?"

"Of course. You are welcome anytime."

"By the way, I may be leaving for a while. If Lady Tsunade comes here, please help me pass on a message."

"I can Reverse Summon her here right now. Do you need me to do that?"

"No. I want to leave without anyone knowing. I have something very important to do. Tell her in three days."

"Alright, Lord Huan."

Uchiha Huan was about to leave when he suddenly stopped. "By the way, can I take some mucus with me?"

"Of course. Is this enough? I can secrete even more acidic fluid."

Uchiha Huan directly stored all the mucus in the depression inside his Storage Soul Tool.

"Then goodbye, Slug."

"Goodbye, Lord Huan."

Uchiha Huan then activated the Eye of Space and returned to the Douluo World.

The next moment, Uchiha Huan appeared in the courtyard of his new home.

Hah... The air here was still fresher. The air in Shikkotsu Forest made him feel as though his body would dissolve if he stayed there one second longer.

Just then, Yue Guan entered the courtyard.

"Huh? Xiao Huan, you're back?" Yue Guan rushed before Uchiha Huan in delight. "You weren't injured outside, were you? You didn't recklessly absorb a 5,500-year Soul Beast's Spirit Ring, did you?"

"Teacher, how could I do something that dangerous? I value my life very much. Besides, I'm only Rank 18 now."

After staying in the Naruto World for nearly two months, Uchiha Huan's Soul Power had also reached Rank 18.

"Your physique seems to have improved quite a bit. How did you do it?" Yue Guan grabbed Uchiha Huan by the shoulders, revealing a look of surprise.

Uchiha Huan's body was at least twice as strong as before he had left.

This left Yue Guan deeply astonished. Just how had Uchiha Huan managed it?

With Uchiha Huan's current physique, he truly might be able to successfully absorb a 5,500-year Soul Beast's Spirit Ring.

"I went to Vast Sea City, where I found a hundred-thousand-year Whale Rubber. It was too nourishing, so no nobles dared buy it, and I happened to come across it."

Yue Guan sucked in a sharp breath. What kind of luck was that?

Fortunately, no one else recognized its value, or it would never have fallen into Uchiha Huan's hands.

Because Uchiha Huan had discovered Whale Rubber's marvelous effects, Spirit Hall had now begun stockpiling it in large quantities.

"Oh, right. This is for you." Yue Guan took out a Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone. "This is a 34,000-year Spiritual Wisdom Skull. His Holiness the Pope bestowed it upon you."

"Old Chrysanthemum, use this yourself. I don't want it."

"Why not?"

"I plan to get myself a full set of hundred-thousand-year Soul Bones."

"Stop fooling around. How could a full set of hundred-thousand-year Soul Bones be so easy to obtain?"

"I'm serious." Uchiha Huan had no interest whatsoever in this 34,000-year Spiritual Wisdom Skull.

It would be impressive if this Head Soul Bone could raise his Mental Power by ten percent.

His Mental Power was simply too strong. He truly did not think much of it.

"I'll keep it for you for now. Come find me when you've thought it through." Yue Guan was reluctant to absorb it himself as well.

Uchiha Huan might look down on this Head Soul Bone, but to Yue Guan, it was a priceless treasure.

"Old Chrysanthemum, I need to go out again."

"You're going out again? What have you been busy with every day?"

"I want to prepare for your retirement early, so naturally I need to raise my strength as soon as possible."

"I'm not old yet, and you already want me to retire?"

"What matters most for you now is still increasing your Soul Power..." Yue Guan suddenly found himself unable to continue.

Increase his Soul Power!? Uchiha Huan was not even seven years old yet, and he already possessed Rank 18 Soul Power.

Among children his age, there was absolutely no one with a higher Soul Power Level than his.

"Can't your Clone Technique go out and move around? Is there some distance limit?"

"The Clone Technique needs to stay here and cultivate. If it goes out to travel, it has to move around everywhere, which is unsuitable for cultivation."

"Your real body can cultivate too. Can't the Clone Technique travel instead?"

"If I want to run, no one can kill me."

In truth, Uchiha Huan's plan this time was to obtain that hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Emperor's Right Leg Bone.

The journey from here to Notting City would take at least a month. That meant that by the time he reached Notting City, the Eye of Space's cooldown would be ready again.

If all went smoothly, he could directly fuse with the Soul Bone, then hunt that 5,500-year Soul Beast to obtain a Spirit Ring.

If he encountered danger, he could also rely on the Eye of Space to escape.

Yue Guan suddenly reached for Uchiha Huan's neck.

Bang—

Uchiha Huan's body turned into a puff of smoke.

Yue Guan was speechless. Even when facing him, Uchiha Huan was still using a Clone Technique.

His disciple's talent and awareness were both top-notch, but this personality of his... it was as if cowardice had been carved into his bones.

Forget it. Flowers could not be raised in a greenhouse.

Even Bibi Dong had undergone cruel trials back then.

"Protect yourself."

"Of course. After all, I'm going to provide for you in your retirement."

"This is my Elder Token. Take it."

"Old Chrysanthemum, if you give me your Elder Token, won't it be inconvenient when you go out to handle matters?"

"Do you think the nine Spirit Rings beneath my feet are just for show?"
