Orochimaru caressed the crystal coffin as though it were a priceless treasure, his eyes filled with curiosity as he stared at the Sage of Six Paths inside. He said in amazement,
"Even now, methods that can preserve a body for a thousand years without decay are extremely rare."
"I can hardly wait to dissect the Sage of Six Paths' body and see what kind of power this body is hiding."
Uchiha Kyu did not mind revealing another legendary secret. His gaze swept across the crowd as he spoke decisively.
"The Uchiha Clan and the Senju Clan were originally one family. Back then, the Sage of Six Paths had two sons. The elder son inherited the power of the eyes, Yin-natured chakra, while the younger son inherited the Sage's power of the body, Yang-natured chakra."
"The Sage of Six Paths himself possessed Yin-Yang Power. Yin and Yang can create all things. The nine Tailed Beasts were separated from the Ten-Tails by the Sage of Six Paths and given life."
"The Uchiha ancestor Indra fell out with the Sage of Six Paths because he was dissatisfied that the Ninshu he had personally founded was passed on to his younger brother, Asura."
"In the end, Indra's reincarnations and Asura's reincarnations were fated to battle each other through their endless cycle of reincarnation."
"The most recent reincarnations of Asura and Indra were Hashirama and Madara Uchiha."
What Uchiha Kyu had said sounded like a fantastical tale. Only Hyuga Hiashi, who knew the secret of the Byakugan, chose to believe it immediately.
The others were so shocked by the enormous revelation that they needed some time to process it.
"No wonder you value the Sage of Six Paths' corpse so highly." Orochimaru let out a raspy chuckle, a trace of interest flashing through his eyes.
