The entire Root Dimension seemed to suddenly come alive, generating a strong sense of rejection towards him, an outsider.
The earth beneath my feet.
The space above my head is empty.
Every inch of space around us.
Everyone is pushing him away.
Uchiha Xin immediately activated the Mitsudomoe Tensei Rinnegan in an attempt to stabilize his position.
But as soon as he used his pupil power, a tearing pain shot through his eye socket.
The remaining Power of the Limit within his body also vibrated violently.
Upon witnessing this scene, the Sage of Six Paths finally revealed a chilling expression.
You've reached your limit.
" Uchiha Xin, no matter how strong you are, you are ultimately not the master of the Root Dimension."
"After Mother was sealed away, this space is temporarily unclaimed."
"And I, this old man, am my mother's son."
"This space will not completely reject me."
Uchiha Xin understood instantly.
"I see."
"Since you don't dare to fight me head-on, you're using your status as Kaguya's Child to seize control of this unclaimed space and kick me out."
The Sage of Six Paths did not deny it.
"This is the safest way."
You are powerless to resist spatial repulsion.
"After we leave this place, this seal will naturally be taken over by me."
Uchiha Xin sneered.
That's very blunt.
"Unfortunately, you still underestimate me."
The Sage of Six Paths narrowed his eyes.
What else can you do?
The spatial repulsion is becoming increasingly strong.
Uchiha Xin's figure had begun to blur.
He didn't continue to stubbornly resist.
There was also no forceful Divine Transference power.
Because he is indeed not suited to continue expending his energy at this point.
But leaving doesn't mean failure.
Deep within Uchiha Xin's Mitsudomoe Tensei Rinnegan, a faint, deep blue light silently fell into the deepest part of the Root Dimension.
The point of light did not fluctuate in the slightest.
There was no Thunderbolt.
There is no Chakra.
Even the Sage of Six Paths ' Rinnegan didn't detect it.
It was like an invisible nail, quietly driven into the primordial crack of this space.
Exclusive space marker.
As long as this marker remains, the Root Dimension is no longer truly closed.
Someday, he will come back.
The Sage of Six Paths only saw Uchiha Xin's figure gradually being swallowed up by the power of space, unaware that his opponent had already left a contingency plan right under his nose.
" Uchiha Xin."
The Sage of Six Paths spoke slowly.
You are very strong.
"But in the end, I, the old man, have won this contest."
Uchiha Xin looked up at him, his face showing no anger, only mockery.
"Win?"
" Sage of Six Paths, you're celebrating too soon."
As soon as the words were spoken, the repulsive force of the Root Dimension erupted completely.
boom!
Uchiha Xin's figure was forcibly ejected from this space.
The Sage of Six Paths hovered in place until he was sure that the aura had completely disappeared before he slowly exhaled.
He was indeed relieved.
Uchiha Xin in too much danger.
It was so dangerous that even if he witnessed his opponent's strength plummet to its lowest point, he was unwilling to engage in a direct, life-or-death battle.
Because nobody knows if this monster has another trump card up its sleeve.
If Uchiha Xin were truly pushed to the limit, and he forcibly released Kaguya from her seal, allowing Kaguya to escape again, the situation would completely spiral out of control.
This is for the best.
Drive Uchiha Xin out.
The sealed sphere remains.
The Root Dimension remained within his control.
Given time, he can gradually work through Kaguya's power.
The Sage of Six Paths looked at the enormous sealed celestial body in the distance, and his aged face returned to calm.
"Mother."
"This time, your strength will not be wasted."
He didn't notice.
In the final moment before Uchiha Xin was ejected from the Root Dimension, he casually took with him a figure who was almost on the verge of death.
Above the ruins of the Shinobi World.
Space suddenly distorted.
Uchiha Xin's figure fell out of the void, his feet crushing a layer of scorched black rock.
His face was pale, blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, and he felt a sharp pain in his eyes.
But his right hand was gripping a man who was almost unrecognizable as human.
Madara Uchiha.
This once invincible tyrant is now on his last breath.
His body was drained when Kaguya resurrected, the Ten-Tails was stolen, his Chakra was depleted, and his chest heaved so weakly that it was almost invisible.
Those Rinnegan were still in their sockets, but they had dimmed like two flickering lamps about to go out.
Ban opened his eyes with difficulty.
He saw Uchiha Xin and his lips twitched slightly.
"I... I'm not dead yet?"
Uchiha Xin placed him next to a pile of rubble.
"Soon."
Ban was silent for a moment, then smiled.
The laughter was soft, tinged with an indescribable self-mockery.
"That's quite a mess."
"I, Madara Uchiha, have actually fallen to such an end."
He looked at the shattered sky, his voice hoarse.
"I was fooled my whole life by that Black Zetsu thing."
" Infinite Tsukuyomi, the Stone Tablet, the Eye of the Moon Plan..."
"It's all fake."
"I thought I was heading towards true peace."
"In the end, she was merely a sacrifice for someone else's resurrection of their mother."
As he said this, Ban's fingers gripped the gravel tightly.
Even on the verge of death, the resentment and anger in his heart did not dissipate.
" Black Zetsu..."
"That bastard..."
"I really want to kill it with my own hands."
Uchiha Xin looked at him and said calmly:
"No need to think about it."
"I've already killed Black Zetsu."
Ban's breathing suddenly stopped.
His dim Rinnegan finally showed a slight reaction.
"What did you say?"
Uchiha Xin spoke calmly.
"I extracted Black Zetsu from Kaguya's body right in front of her, then absorbed and destroyed it."
"Not even a crumb was left."
Ban was stunned for a long time.
Then, he suddenly laughed.
The laughter grew softer and hoarser, eventually turning into a violent cough.
Blood gushed from the corner of his mouth.
But the resentment on his face seemed to have finally dissipated somewhat.
"Dead..."
"That thing that used me as a pawn is dead..."
"Ha ha..."
"Good."
Good riddance.
Ban closed his eyes, his chest rising and falling even more faintly.
The last vestige of resentment weighing on his heart was finally severed.
Uchiha Xin crouched down, looking at his Rinnegan.
"Spot."
I will take your Rinnegan.
The freckles were not unexpected.
There wasn't even the slightest resistance.
He knew the Uchiha too well.
They know the strong too well.
The power is there; no one will feign arrogance.
Besides, he was already dying.
Leaving those eyes on the corpse is meaningless.
"Take it."
Ban's voice was very soft.
"I don't need it anymore anyway."
Uchiha Xin continued:
In exchange, I will settle this score with the Sage of Six Paths on your behalf.
Ban slowly opened his eyes.
" The Sage of Six Paths..."
A cold smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
"So... even he's not clean?"
"I should have thought of that."
"These so-called gods in the Shinobi World are all hypocrites."
Uchiha Xin did not refute.
Ban looked at him, his voice growing softer and softer.
" Uchiha Xin."
You see it better than I do.
"If there's a chance..."
"Don't let those Otsutsuki continue to treat the Shinobi World like a chessboard."
Uchiha Xin nodded.
Yes, it will.
