Chapter 265: Confrontation with the Six Immortals
The breath of death in the Pure Land is fatal to the living, but it can be protected from it with the protection of magic.
This is something that chakra cannot do. Chakra is essentially the ability of the mind and body. Unless you are deceased, you will be tainted with the breath of death when you enter the pure land. In other words, under normal circumstances, you are destined to die when you enter the pure land. .
If you think about it again, you can only see if someone uses secret techniques to resurrect you.
The world in the Pure Land is dark and filled with endless nothingness.
What is the world of the dead really like?
At least in the ninja world, this place is definitely not beautiful.
After entering the ninja world, Sarutobi Hiruzen can find that there are many souls here, but most of them are unconscious and silent in absolute nothingness.
Only a small number of souls have self-awareness, but these souls are also silent in the Pure Land, where there is no concept of time and everything is meaningless.
The deceased can only continue to recall the events of his lifetime here.
Of course, there is not only nothingness here, for example, some people are staring at a fire in a daze, some people are sitting under a big tree and bowing their heads silently, and some people are just wandering in place blindly.
It seems that the world here will also change differently according to these dead people.
What exactly is death? Even immortal cultivators don't know this question clearly, but fear of death is a common characteristic of all people.
There are many individuals with powerful chakra here, but after these people come to the Pure Land, they seem to have become part of the Pure Land. Otherwise, it cannot be explained why the chakra of the people summoned by the reincarnation of the dirty land is endless.
Because to a certain extent, the chakra recovered from these reincarnations of the dirty land is actually the chakra of all the dead in the pure land, which is so huge that it is unimaginable.
It seems that the primary productivity of the ninja world is various forbidden arts. The Otsutsuki clan uses the sacred tree too roughly and does not consider recycling at all.
Walking in the pure land, Sarutobi Hiruzen walked towards the most powerful chakra in the distance. If nothing else happened, it should be the Sage of Six Paths.
Maybe because of the mask, none of the dead here noticed him, or maybe for these dead, everything has lost its meaning.
There seems to be a familiar guy.
After walking for a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen saw two familiar figures ahead.
The teenage version of Obito and the teenage version of Rin?
I saw Lin squatting under a big tree, holding her legs with both hands, burying her head in her arms, seeming to be crying silently.
Obito was not far away from Lin, but there was a steel prison with no top visible between the two of them. Obito grabbed the railing with both hands weakly and watched Lin crying continuously.
It seems that Rin is not ready to forgive Obito and cannot understand what Obito has done.
You have to pay a price for what you do. Now Obito is indeed in a world with Lin, but Lin will never forgive him.
Continuing to move forward, Sarutobi Hiruzen saw many familiar figures, and even many people who died under his hands. After seeing him, they stared at him silently from a distance.
Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't care, he was already dead, so what could he do?
Sarutobi Hiruzen even saw Uchiha Madara, standing silently with his eyes closed, as if he was having a sweet dream, probably waiting for resurrection.
After walking for a long time, we finally arrived at the depths of the Pure Land.
"You came."
The Sage of Six Paths sat cross-legged in the void, holding a tin staff in his hand. After Hiruzen Sarutobi approached, he opened his eyes and spoke, as if he had expected Hiruzen Sarutobi to come.
Looking at the Sage of Six Paths, Sarutobi Hiruzen could feel that this guy was really dead. He had no breath of the living and a large amount of chakra. There was not much power left in the Six Paths.
Even the Sage of Six Paths could not resist the passage of time.
"A soul from another world, you are the revolution in the ninja world."
The Sage of Six Paths looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a complicated expression.
He failed. The destruction of the Ninja Sect proved one thing. It is impossible for people to understand each other and enter a long-term peace.
However, he is still worried that Otsutsuki will arrive and completely destroy the world.
Just like Hashirama and Madara founded Konoha, for the Sage of Six Paths, this world was also shaped by him and his brother.
But with the development of the ninja world, the war has never subsided, but now, the emergence of Sarutobi Hiruzen and Orochimaru's changes to Konoha, as well as the development of a series of forbidden ninjutsu, have made the Six Paths Sage aware.
He might have been too naive and true peace could not exist, but a state of relative peace is possible.
It's just that the contradiction needs to be transferred out, just like Konoha now.
Of course, there is another world...
"As for you, what's the point of living in this world without reincarnation?"
Although the rules of this world are incomplete, with the ability of the Six Paths Immortal, reincarnation can still be achieved.
But the Immortal of Six Paths did not choose this. Instead, he has been observing the world silently in the Pure Land.
"..."
After a moment of silence, the Sage of Six Paths answered Sarutobi Hiruzen's question.
"I can't guarantee that after reincarnation, I can still reach the current situation. If the Otsutsuki clan comes, there will be no way to deal with it. Therefore, I let the chakra of Indra and Asura continue to reincarnate and provide it at the appropriate time. Help, let the ninja world cope with the crisis."
Hashirama and Madara pacified the Warring States Period, and there was also the shadow of the Sage of Six Paths behind them.
"You are wrong and too naive."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was outspoken and spoke his mind.
Born with strong power due to his bloodline, his thinking is always too naive. Facts have proved that he is too indecisive, which will only bring more tragedies.
"Yes, it seems that's the case. I will continue to be in the Pure Land until my consciousness completely disappears in the distant future."
"We will free your mother."
Hearing what Sarutobi Hiruzen said, the Sage of Six Paths had no reaction.
After sealing away his mother for so long, he still felt guilty in his heart.
Now Konoha seems to have the power to fight Otsutsuki, so we can only believe in the wisdom of future generations.
Shaking his head, Sarutobi Hiruzen turned and left. The Sage of Six Paths was not in that good condition. If he took action, he would definitely be able to completely wipe out the remaining consciousness and chakra of the Sage of Six Paths.
But there is no need. If a strong person from the Otsutsuki clan comes in the future, the Sage of Six Paths will definitely dedicate his strength.
Just make sure that this guy is not preparing any conspiracy.
