"That was more than a thousand years ago."
The old snake's voice became even older.
"White Snake Sage was still young at that time, and Ryūchi Cave didn't have as many rules as now."
"One day, a human came in."
"He didn't go to the trial, and he didn't get the approval."
"But White Snake Sage didn't drive him away either."
"Because--"
The old snake paused.
"The aura on his body makes even immortals feel afraid."
Senju Chen's heart is beating wildly, a human being who can make even White Snake Sage fear...
At that time, besides Sage of Six Paths, who else could there be?
"That person went directly to Snake Cave Abyss."
The old snake continued.
"Stayed there for seven days and seven nights."
"When we come out..."
"He has changed."
Senju Chen Hold your breath.
"How has it changed?"
The old snake raised his head, a trace of fear flashing in his golden vertical pupils.
"His eyes changed from purple to red."
"He has an aura about him that makes all living things tremble."
"Then he said something to White Snake Sage--"
The old snake lowered his voice.
"He said he found the answer."
Senju Chen's heart skipped a beat.
Found the answer?
What answer?
Sage of Six Paths Come to Ryūchi Cave What are you looking for?
And--
Eyes changing from purple to red?
Rinnegan becomes Sharingan?
No.
Sage of Six Paths had Rinnegan at the beginning, and then Sharingan was awakened...
Wait.
Senju Chen Suddenly remembered something.
In the original work, Sage of Six Paths's mother is Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.
Kaguya has Byakugan and Rinne Sharingan.
Sage of Six Paths inherits Rinnegan.
His younger brother inherited Byakugan and Sage Body.
But--
Rinnegan of Sage of Six Paths is different from Rinne Sharingan of Kaguya.
Kaguya is Nine-Tomoe Rinne Sharingan, which combines all the capabilities of Sharingan and Rinnegan.
Sage of Six Paths's Rinnegan only has the abilities of Rinnegan, but does not have the eye skills of Sharingan.
So...
Sage of Six Paths came to Ryūchi Cave to find a way to awaken Sharingan?
But this doesn't make sense either.
Sharingan has always been Kekkei Genkai inherited from the Uchiha Clan. Although it is somewhat related to Rinnegan, what does it have to do with Ryūchi Cave?
Senju Chen's mind is in a mess.
The old snake looked at him and suddenly smiled.
"It's normal that you can't figure it out. Even the immortals back then didn't understand what that person was talking about."
Senju Chen was silent for two seconds.
"Senior, what exactly is in Snake Cave Abyss?"
The old snake stopped smiling.
"I don't know."
"All I know is--"
"Before that person entered, he was a human being."
"After coming out..."
The old snake paused.
"More like God."
Senju Chen was shocked.
More like God?
"And--"
The old snake continued.
"After that person came out, he left something behind Ryūchi Cave."
"Senior, what did that man leave behind?"
"A stone tablet."
The old snake stared at Senju Chen.
"There is a sentence engraved on it--"
"Those who see the truth must first bear the price."
Senju Chen's heart skipped a beat.
This sentence...
Why is it so similar to the mysterious little snake mentioned before?
"There are things you want out there, but there are also prices you can't afford."
Senju Chen suddenly understood.
In Snake Cave Abyss, there are things left by Sage of Six Paths.
It may be a secret, it may be power, it may be the truth of the world.
But the price -
Even Sage of Six Paths wants to warn late comers.
How much does this cost?
Senju Chen Take a deep breath.
"Senior, is that stone tablet still there?"
The old snake nodded.
"Just at the entrance of Snake Cave Abyss."
"If you really want to go..."
"Look at the stone tablet first and then decide."
Senju Chen was silent for two seconds.
"Thank you, senior, for your advice."
The old snake wagged its tail.
"Don't thank me."
"Over the past thousand years..."
The old snake's voice became erratic.
"A lot of people have gone in."
"But those who made it out alive..."
"Only that person."
Senju Chen's heart sank.
After more than a thousand years, only Sage of Six Paths came out alive?
How dangerous is it there?
The old snake turned around and slowly swam deeper into the canyon.
"Boy, I advise you not to be too curious."
As soon as he finished speaking, the old snake disappeared deep into the canyon.
Senju Chen stood there, staring in the direction the old snake left.
My mind was filled with the information just now.
Sage of Six Paths.
Snake Cave Abyss.
Stone tablet.
The truth.
cost.
Senju Chen suddenly smiled.
"Haha, interesting, really interesting!!!"
He originally just wanted to come to Ryūchi Cave to learn Senjutsu and collect some wool by the way.
I never thought that such a big secret could be unearthed.
Sage of Six Paths came to Ryūchi Cave, and found some kind of "answer" deep in Earth Dragon Cave.
Senju Chen's curiosity was completely aroused.
But he didn't leave immediately.
Senju Chen glanced at the countdown on the system panel.
18 hours left.
"No rush."
Senju Chen whispered.
"Wait until the seal is lifted, then go take a look at the stone tablet."
"If there really is something left by Sage of Six Paths..."
"Then I really have to go there."
He turned around and continued walking deeper along the canyon.
Since there is still time, let's continue shedding wool.
Anyway, Ryūchi Cave is so big, there must be a lot of good stuff.
In the next dozen hours, Senju Chen wandered around Ryūchi Cave.
Later, in order to prevent War God Body from being like Magic God Bloodline and going on cooldown due to fusion failure, he now fuses it with other abilities every time he draws an ability, and then fuses it with War God Body when the compatibility exceeds 90.
In this way, Senju Chen walked all the way to improve his abilities, and encountered dozens of snakes, large and small.
There are common venomous snakes, spiritual snakes, and vicious snakes.
And Senju Chen will not reject anyone who comes, as long as the breath is up to standard, he will go directly to provoke.
Then use Sharingan's Genjutsu space to play with the opponent, steal abilities, and merge into War God Body.
To the end--
The strength of War God Body has increased by a full 50% compared to when it first entered Ryūchi Cave.
Defense, self-healing, explosive power, endurance...
All-round improvement.
Senju Chen feels that his current physical strength is comparable to the Third Raikage A he saw last time.
Moreover, Third Raikage is only superior in physical strength and speed, but Senju Chen is an all-round improvement.
He also stole several special abilities.
Snake Perception, toxin resistance, Chakra recovery speed, etc...
Although these abilities are not direct combat power, they can gradually supplement the shortcomings of the physical body and improve one's own combat power.
These include toxin resistance.
Senju Chen is now almost immune to all kinds of poisons from Ryūchi Cave.
