Those in the Moon Palace, witnessing this scene through their avatars, all gasped in astonishment.
"He actually abandoned his physical body!" Uchiha Itachi's eyes widened.
"The Sage of Sage of Six Paths ' soul has been nurtured in the Pure Land for a thousand years and has long since materialized. A pure soul can escape at several times the speed of a physical body!" Hinata said anxiously.
Hanabi clenched her fists nervously, her breath catching in her throat.
"Can Brother Xin stop him?"
Inside the alternate dimension, Uchiha Xin watched as the Sage of Six Paths transformed into Light Release, letting out a cold laugh.
"Trying to run?"
"I was prepared for this."
Uchiha Xin didn't even make a Hand Seals, yet the Nine-Tomoe Tensei Rinnegan with a brilliant purple-gold light.
"Reincarnation!"
An invisible law specifically targeting the soul descended instantly, like thousands of invisible chains.
It locked onto the Sage of Sage of Six Paths ' soul aura, completely blocking all possible escape routes for him.
Immediately afterwards, Uchiha Xin raised his right hand and clenched his fist tightly.
" Space Freeze!"
The two top-tier ultimate techniques merged perfectly in mid-air, instantly forming a powerful law cage specifically designed to target the soul.
"Bang!"
The Sage of Sage of Six Paths' soul, which was frantically fleeing, crashed into this invisible cage and was forcefully bounced back.
The pure soul, which was originally immune to the constraints of conventional space, became extremely sluggish and completely passive under the suppression of these dual spells.
"How is that possible!"
"You've even mastered the laws of the soul to this extent!"
The Sage of Six Paths was trapped in the cage, struggling left and right, but he could not shake the barrier of law even slightly.
For the first time, an undisguised panic and fear surfaced on his solidified soul.
Uchiha Xin ignored his impotent rage, put his hands in his pockets, and activated the system in his mind.
"System."
"This old dog's soul has been nurtured in the Pure Land for over a thousand years; it's a great tonic."
"Can I directly absorb and refine it to enhance my strength?"
The system's mechanical voice immediately echoed in my mind.
[Ding! Detected host's intent to absorb the Sage of Sage of Six Paths' soul.]
[System notification: The Sage of Sage of Six Paths' soul has undergone a thousand years of transformation and has reached the pinnacle of the soul laws of this world.]
[The host's current level is insufficient, and there are no exclusive soul refining laws such as the power of the Reaper within their body.]
[If forcibly absorbed, this top-tier soul cannot be perfectly refined into primal power; only a small amount of skill proficiency can be gained.]
[This is tantamount to possessing a priceless treasure but being unable to utilize it, which is an extreme waste.]
After hearing the system's explanation, Uchiha Xin frowned slightly, his face showing obvious regret.
"Cannot be perfectly refined?"
"Only some skill points? That's a real waste."
The sigh was made without any attempt to conceal it.
The Sage of Six Paths, trapped in the cage of laws, keenly noticed the regretful expression on Uchiha Xin's face.
He was stunned at first, then as if he had grasped a lifeline, the panic in his heart vanished instantly.
Hahahaha!
The Sage of Sage of Six Paths' soul laughed wildly in the cage, his voice filled with boundless arrogance and triumph.
" Uchiha Xin, I see through it!"
"You may be able to trap me, but you have no way to obliterate my soul!"
"My soul has undergone a thousand years of purification in the Pure Land, transcending the boundaries of life and death, and is immortal!"
"Even if you, a junior from a later generation, are powerful, you can't possibly harm the very essence of my soul!"
He looked down at Uchiha Xin with an arrogant air, reverting to his superior, godlike demeanor.
"Let me leave!"
"Otherwise, once I recreate my true form in the Pure Land, I will make you, and all those ants behind you, pay a terrible price!"
Those in the Moon Palace, far away, turned extremely ugly upon hearing this arrogant outburst.
"An immortal soul..." Uchiha Itachi frowned. "If even Xin can't eliminate it, wouldn't that be like releasing a tiger back into the mountains?"
"That old scoundrel is too arrogant!" Hanabi stomped her feet in anger.
Faced with the Sage of Six Paths ' provocation, Uchiha Xin stood still, showing no anger whatsoever, and instead let out a cold laugh.
"Immortal and indestructible?"
"Old dog, have you been in this Pure Land for too long? Has your brain gotten rusty?"
Uchiha Xin's eyes turned completely cold; he held back no longer.
"Just because I can't absorb you doesn't mean I can't kill you."
"Since you can't be used as fertilizer, then you might as well become complete garbage."
The moment the words left his mouth, Uchiha Xin unleashed the full power of his Extreme Path Chakra.
The purple-gold light of the Nine-Tomoe Tensei Rinnegan surged to an unprecedented extreme.
The three illusory Tomoe shapes on the outermost ring began to spin wildly at this moment.
Uchiha Xin slowly raised his right hand, aiming it at the Sage of Six Paths in the cage.
"Let me show you what true end really is."
" Tensei: Rinne: Return to the Void!"
boom--!!!
An indescribable, terrifying power erupted from Uchiha Xin's palm.
This goes beyond simple attraction, repulsion, or the Law of Space.
This is the Power of Return to the Ruins, which transcends everything and represents the end of all things, a complete return to nothingness!
Click! Click!
Wherever the Power of Return to the Ruins, even space itself is mercilessly torn apart and dissolved, turning into the purest darkness.
This terrifying power pierced through the cage of laws without any hindrance, instantly enveloping the Sage of Sage of Six Paths ' soul.
"What is this?!"
"Get out of my way! Get out of my way!"
The Sage of Six Paths let out a terrified scream.
His proud, thousand-year-old soul, upon contact with the Power of Return to the Ruins, began to melt away frantically, like snowflakes under the blazing sun.
The Power of Return to the Ruins was like countless invisible, sharp knives, peeling away his soul's outer shell layer by layer, obliterating his core strength and origin.
"Aaaaaahh...
The extreme pain caused the Sage of Six Paths to completely lose his mind, letting out a chilling and piercing scream.
The pain of having one's soul slowly ground to pieces and erased is a thousand times, ten thousand times more terrifying than physical torture.
His previous arrogant and haughty demeanor vanished at this moment.
The Sage of Sage of Six Paths ' soul twisted and struggled wildly under the strangulation of the Power of Return to the Ruins, and finally collapsed completely.
"Stop! Stop right now!"
" Uchiha Xin, I surrender! I surrender!"
"Don't kill me! I'm willing to submit to you!"
"I can give you all the Ninjutsu and secrets I've accumulated over a thousand years!"
"If you spare my life, I'm willing to be your slave and serve you at your beck and call!"
This once high and Sage of Six Paths, revered as a god in the Shinobi World, now resembles a stray dog.
He humbly begged for mercy and showed weakness before Uchiha Xin, only hoping to preserve his last soul.
