Like a mischievous evening breeze, it slipped in through the gap in the window, and as the lamplight flickered, Huang gradually awoke from this sad story.

"Are you feeling better?"

Concerned words reached my ears at that moment.

"Well, it's okay."

Looking at the girl's concerned eyes, yet her attempts to conceal her own worry, a strange warmth seeped into Huang's heart, and a similar vow was secretly made in his heart.

"I just suddenly remembered a story I overheard outside. Would you like to hear it?"

After receiving a soft hum and a nod from the girl, Ara began to slowly recount the story between Oriyuki, the mortician, and Ittan-momen:

"This is a sad story, and also a story about monsters..."

I will absolutely protect you.

Chapter 356 First Appearance: The Shadow of Orochi

With the story of the mortician, Oriyuki, and Ittanmomen coming to a temporary end, the room returned to peace.

With red eyes, Quan didn't speak, but quietly leaned over and gently rested her cheek on Huang's shoulder, still immersed in the sad ending of lovers who couldn't grow old together.

She resonated with it.

After all, being born in the ninja world and being ninjas, death is not far away for them.

After the Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage twelve years ago, her mother suffered the pain of being separated from her loved one by the spirit.

If it weren't for the fact that Izumi was still young at the time and worried about who would take care of him in the future, Izumi would never doubt that his mother would choose to leave with his father.

Sensing the girl's genuine sadness, Huang was at a loss for how to comfort her.

The simplest form of support can only be given when one makes a vow in their heart.

[Impure World Reincarnation],

Perhaps it wasn't an evil technique that was killed off with a single blow.

To fulfill the unfulfilled wishes of the deceased, to reunite those separated by two generations, and to uncover the truths buried in history and beneath the soil.

That's probably the true meaning of this ninjutsu.

Ultimately, it depends on the user.

Furthermore, neither Izumi nor Ara had any thought of reviving their deceased fathers or their teacher, Yashiro, when they saw this technique.

Perhaps there was a fleeting moment of attraction, but ultimately reason prevailed.

After all, the Impure World Reincarnation is not a true resurrection, and the condition for successfully performing the technique is that a living person is used as a sacrifice.

the most important is,

Once such taboos are started, the subsequent consequences will be unpredictable!

Because everyone has regrets in their heart.

Everyone had the obsession of wanting to see each other one last time, but ultimately none of them were able to.

If the Impure World Reincarnation were to become a reality,

If the world were to be thrown into chaos if the desire to revive one's own obsession were to be sacrificed with the lives of others, then the world would be in complete disarray.

Therefore,

After engraving the technique into his memory, a wisp of crimson flame quietly appeared at Huang's fingertip, and as his finger moved across the paper, he completely erased the technique.

I wasn't very interested in the next few bans on ninjutsu.

Including the S-rank terrifying assassination ninjutsu, 【Spirit Transformation Technique】.

This is a terrifying ninjutsu that separates one's body and soul, allowing one to ignore distance and any physical attacks. Regardless of whether the target's location is known beforehand, one can reach the person desired through the connection between souls to carry out assassinations or provide intelligence and other activities!

Although this technique was created by the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, the most famous user of it was undoubtedly the former Konoha genius, Dan Kato.

Legend has it that he used this ninjutsu to successfully hunt down countless ninjas, and used it to deter and change the difficult situation of Konoha being attacked from both sides.

Of course, using such terrifying ninjutsu also has two major drawbacks: first, what to do with the body after losing its soul; and second, the possibility of losing oneself after spiritualization.

The former can be resolved by entrusting one's body to one's most trusted friends or companions for protection.

Naturally, this requires unconditional trust between the two parties.

Don't say that just because you stay cooped up in Konoha and don't leave your room, you can travel thousands of miles and kill people without leaving a trace.

If the soul is allowed to wander for a long time and a long distance, it may lose itself, encounter unpredictable accidents, and even be unable to return to the body, or even be completely destroyed.

Otherwise, Kato Dan wouldn't have needed to go to the front lines with his troops, and he wouldn't have died in the war.

As for the immense comprehension required to successfully master this technique, and the individual strength needed to maintain spiritualization and carry out assassinations, those are relatively minor, standard requirements.

After all, the world has no shortage of geniuses.

What's lacking is unconditional trust, and the conviction to stay true to oneself and not lose one's way.

The gaze skipped over it all the way.

Only when he reached the end of the scroll did Huang finally stop sliding his fingers, and a strange and apprehensive expression appeared on his face.

And reading further down the black and white text, the last ninjutsu written in the sealed book was:

【The Eight-Headed Serpent Technique!】

I heard that

Orochimaru, one of the legendary Sannin, only chose two forbidden techniques when faced with a room full of forbidden techniques in Konoha.

The first is the Impure World Reincarnation Technique.

This reflects his desire for immortality after witnessing the insignificance and fragility of life.

The second is the Eight-Headed Serpent Technique.

The enormous creature that materialized was not only his strongest ninjutsu, but also the embodiment of Orochimaru's long-standing obsession!

However, the reason why Ara was surprised by it was not because of the ninjutsu itself.

After all, since one can manifest Susanoo through the Mangekyou Sharingan, there is no need to waste energy and neglect the essentials by practicing such a ninjutsu.

What truly shocked and frightened them was:

Trigger the extermination quest:

【The Source of Calamity: Yamata no Orochi】!

Mission Background: He is an evil god who was banished by the gods of Takamagahara and sealed in the narrow space between the realms of Yin and Yang. He possesses an ancient lifespan that coexists with heaven and earth and power that humans can never attain.

He had made long-term deals with the Onmyoji of the Minamoto clan through the altar they built.

but,

Transactions where the strength of the parties involved is unequal will ultimately only lead to disaster.

When the evil god descends upon the world, humanity will perish.

Task Description:

Phase One: [The Witch's Lament.]

For the continuation of the family, for the prosperity of the family, and for creating the strongest shikigami that belongs to us alone.

After accidentally discovering the existence of the evil god Yamata no Orochi, the Genji, an ancient family of Onmyoji in Kyoto, they spent countless efforts building an altar that could communicate with it.

For a long time, the offerings for the power of prayer have been human girls with special spiritual powers.

They were called: priestesses.

On a new moon night, at the hour of Oma.

On the altar,

The lingering ghost of the witch, her resentful grievances, and a filthy mass of rotting limbs writhed and twisted violently upon it.

Finally, this polymerization formed a giant snake with eight heads and eight tails.

【I am, I am the evil god Yamata no Orochi!!】

A chilling terror, emanating from the very soul, echoed through the skies above Kyoto on this night of twilight.

In an instant,

Kyoto trembled, a mist rose, and a hundred demons roamed the night.

The demons suppressed beneath this ancient city have been revived by this extremely evil power, and some have even broken through the seal.

The protective barrier was being eroded by the surging demonic energy.

Humanity, like cherry blossoms in their season, withers away one after another.

Ordinary Yin-Yang techniques and the power of mortals are simply insufficient to stop this monster that has inherited the power of an evil god and is imbued with the wrath of a priestess.

[Revenge, you despicable Onmyoji!]

[Damn it! Sinful Kyoto!]

Guided by endless obsession

The monstrous creature, formed from aggregated matter, twisted its terrifying body and left the bloody altar, launching its revenge against the ignorant humans.

In the end, amidst the chaos,

At the cost of the lives of the Onmyoji of Kyoto, a barrier covering the entire city was constructed to seal away this terrifying entity that called itself Yamata no Orochi.

but,

It's just a seal.

and,

Human greed is endless, but human reflection is limited.

Soon, other Onmyoji, seeking power and to satisfy their own desires, began to restart this blood-soaked and evil altar.

Look,

The arrogant man named Minamoto no Yorimitsu was climbing the stone steps leading to the altar!
