A fierce wind howled, and the world changed color.
The people on the city wall, including Kazahana Koyuki, were so terrified by the apocalyptic scene that they collapsed to the ground.
"My God! What on earth is that?!"
"Space... Space has cracked!"
Faced with the spatial turbulence that was devouring everything, Uchiha Xin's expression darkened, and he immediately took action to deal with it.
" Divine Flash!"
He swayed, attempting to use the Law of Space to teleport away.
However, the entire space had been completely disrupted, the teleportation landing point was forcibly distorted, and the spell failed.
" Amenominaka!"
He activated the Tensei Rinnegan once more, attempting to open a new spatial passage.
However, the devouring power amplified by the fundamental laws was too domineering, directly sealing off all spatial passages.
Damn it.
Uchiha Xin cursed under his breath.
In the blink of an eye, the dark rift had spread to his front, swallowing half of his body.
Just as he was about to unleash his Power of the Extreme Path and brute force to shatter this chaotic space...
A rapid, mechanical warning sound rang in my mind.
"Ding! Emergency system alert!"
"Warning! This spatial collapse has engulfed the fundamental laws of the Hokage world!"
"If the host forcibly retaliates, it will trigger a complete rampage of the spatial origin!"
"At best, it will cause serious injury; at worst, it will trigger irreversible and extreme consequences!"
Uchiha Xin paused, his brows furrowing.
What exactly is this old man trying to do?
The system provides an immediate answer.
"Detection complete. The target's self-destruction was not intended to kill the host."
"The core instruction of this Law of Space is to forcibly separate the host and teleport them to an alternate dimension!"
Upon hearing the explanation, Uchiha Xin Satori.
The Sage of Six Paths was afraid.
This old fellow knew he was no match for them head-on, yet he was unwilling to give up his scheme.
They decided to sacrifice a precious primordial puppet to banish him from the Shinobi World, thus buying time.
"I see."
Having weighed the pros and cons, Uchiha Xin sneered and decisively gave up resisting.
Since the other party wanted to scheme against him, he decided to play along.
He quickly Hand Seals.
Buzz!
Nine jet-black Truth-Seeking Orb instantly condensed, transforming into a sturdy black shield that firmly enveloped him.
"Come on, I want to see where you can take me."
Uchiha Xin stood silently within the shield, hands in his pockets, letting the spatial turbulence completely engulf him.
Swish!
A blinding black light flashed by.
Uchiha Xin's figure, along with the collapsed space, disappeared into the snowfield.
The gale gradually subsided, and the raging spatial turbulence completely calmed down.
The battlefield, scarred and devastated, has returned to deathly silence.
The people of the Land of Snow stood atop the city wall, staring blankly at the empty snowfield, filled with fear.
" Lord Xin... has disappeared?" Kazahana Koyuki murmured.
Moments later, a hidden snowdrift several kilometers from the battlefield.
A faint ripple spread across the void.
A tattered figure fell from the void and crashed heavily onto the snow.
The newcomer was none other than Obito.
Just as his body was about to be crushed, he forcefully activated Izanagi using his Mangekyō Sharingan in his left eye.
They risked their lives to save themselves.
Cough cough...
Obito coughed violently, and large mouthfuls of blood mixed with pieces of internal organs gushed out.
He looked utterly miserable at that moment.
His right arm was completely destroyed in the self-destruction, burned to a charred state.
The prosthetic limbs, inlaid with thirteen Sharingan, had all their eye power shattered, rendering them useless flesh.
His left eye, which had just been regained, was completely blinded due to overexertion and is now permanently closed.
His left arm was torn apart by the spatial turbulence, leaving only a small part.
"I survived... I actually survived..."
Obito lay down on the snow, panting heavily.
His single eye held a mixture of relief at surviving the ordeal and deep fear.
The devastating scene that had just occurred still echoed in his mind.
He vaguely remembered that when he was on the verge of destruction, a mysterious and powerful figure suddenly appeared.
The terrifying aura emanating from the other party chilled him to the bone.
What followed was that earth-shattering explosion.
"That mysterious person must be after Uchiha Xin!"
Obito gritted his teeth and pondered, his mind racing with calculations.
"An explosion of that magnitude could completely collapse space itself; there's absolutely no way Uchiha Xin could have escaped unscathed!"
He must be seriously injured!
Upon realizing this, Obito felt a surge of joy, but at the same time, a deep sense of dread arose within him.
The Shinobi World actually harbors such a top-tier expert.
Uchiha Xin's injury presents him with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to turn the tide.
"We can't delay any longer; we must accelerate the plan!"
Obito managed to stop the bleeding from his wounds by summoning his remaining Chakra.
He gazed intently toward the battlefield, then, dragging his battered body, staggered and disappeared into the swirling snow.
Meanwhile, in a pitch-black, deep, endless void.
Buzz!
A black sphere appeared out of thin air.
The Truth-Seeking Orb slowly dispersed, revealing Uchiha Xin, who was completely unharmed inside.
He put his hands in his pockets and looked around at the deathly silence.
There was no light or breath here, only boundless darkness and biting cold.
Where is this place?
Uchiha Xin asked the system in his mind.
"Ding! Test complete."
The system notification sounded precisely on time.
"The host is currently in the outer void of the Hokage world."
"This space exists independently of the Shinobi World, serving as a buffer plane connecting various worlds."
Uchiha Xin raised an eyebrow.
"The outer void... that old bastard wants to completely exile me."
The system continues broadcasting.
"Host, there's no need to worry."
"Although this place is remote, it is an excellent point of entry for breaking through to another dimension."
"The host can shatter dimensional barriers, escape the Shinobi World, and travel to other worlds."
"Returning to the Shinobi World is extremely easy."
"By sensing the location of one's own Shinobi World avatar, and using the Power of the Extreme Path in conjunction with the Rinnegan, one can forcibly Tensei Rinnegan the boundary and return."
After listening to the system's detailed explanation, Uchiha Xin completely understood.
The outer void was pitch black and deathly silent, without a sound.
Uchiha Xin levitated in mid-air, his hands in his pockets.
The Tensei Rinnegan shone with a bright blue light, Power of the Extreme Path within his body surged like boiling water, operating at full speed.
"Break!"
Uchiha Xin hissed, pulling his right hand out of his pocket.
Buzz!
A golden lightsaber took shape in his palm, carrying the power to cleave through laws, and slashed at the invisible spatial barrier.
Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!
Rumble--!
Energy exploded in the void, and the hard barrier cracked with spiderweb-like black lines.
Cracks spread, and the space was on the verge of being breached.
Suddenly, the broken lines burst forth with primordial light and rapidly healed on their own.
In a mere instant, the barrier was restored to its original state, without a single scratch.
Uchiha Xin frowned.
The attack just now was enough to severely injure Six Paths powerful figures, yet it couldn't even break through a single barrier.
Ding! System notification!
A mechanical voice from the system echoed in my mind.
The outer space barrier itself has limited strength.
"Someone has been detected continuously injecting the world's essence from the shadows. The barrier is being forcibly repaired."
After hearing the explanation, Uchiha Xin paused for a moment, then sneered.
"I see."
He surveyed the surrounding dark void, his tone full of mockery.
" Sage of Six Paths, that's all the tricks you have."
He instantly concluded that it was the Sage of Six Paths who had secretly made the move.
The other side dared not confront him directly, so they could only hide in the shadows and use underhanded tactics, intending to trap him here permanently.
"Trying to trap me? Wishful thinking."
