Starting with Hyuga, traversing countless heavens

Besides being excited, Lei Xiu also noticed the difference in Hyuga Hoshino. Because of his cultivation of Sage Mode, Hyuga Hoshino's aura had already subtly merged with the heavens and earth.

Now, I can't feel any breath at all. It's as if I am the universe itself, and every breath I take is the natural way.

"Xiuer is getting smarter and smarter. Before I even said anything, she knew that I had already achieved the status of a human immortal."

"Master, what does it feel like to become an immortal?"

"Xiao Shuang, to be honest, I don't feel anything. Except for not being able to feel where the end of my life is coming from, there is no other difference."

"Little Linglong, your master is back. Don't you miss your master?"

Xia He made way for Lu Linglong, who gently nestled into Hinata Hoshino's arms. She was quite light, and according to the wooden clone's memories, Lu Linglong had worked very hard over the years.

"Master..."

After dealing with a bunch of girls, Hinata Hoshino took a walk in the back mountains. Thinking about it carefully, the cultivation system was the one he had spent the most time on, surpassing the chakra system, and arguably leaving it far behind.

I plucked a leaf, blew on it gently, and the leaf transformed into a butterfly, flying away.

The Yin-Yang Release in Naruto has a very high concept, which can be described as "manipulating creation". The current chakra system is roughly equivalent to the Six Paths, and is slightly stronger than Kaguya Otsutsuki. It's just unknown how much stronger the Otsutsuki God is compared to Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Upon closer examination, it should be limited to the combat power of a star-bursting level. A human immortal, with the Three Flowers Gathering at the Top, the Five Qi Converging at the Origin, and the Inner World Formed, is at least at the star-bursting level, or even possibly at the galaxy level.

If we don't face the Otsutsuki God, it doesn't matter. If we do, and we're still a bit lacking, there's still the system; we can run away first. In short, we're invincible.

In a flash of inspiration, Hyuga Hoshino conjured the Crimson Sky Sword in his hand, took out Monkey Wine with his left hand, and began to practice the Heavenly Escape Sword Technique, a sword technique that Lü Dongbin inherited from the Fire Dragon Immortal in the Complete Story of the Eight Immortals.

The moon shines coldly under the clear light, and immortals dance among the green peaks.

With a light turn of the sword, without using any energy or much force, he gracefully and elegantly took a step and appeared on the mountaintop.

Upon discovering that someone was secretly filming him, Hinata Hoshino smiled and thought, "It's time to give the world a big shock."

With pure sword intent, the clouds in the dark night sky were disturbed, a gentle breeze rose, brushed against the leaves, and the leaves were cut open, revealing silky smooth edges.

The next day, the image of a Maoshan immortal dancing with a sword went viral, and Zhao Fangxu had to put in a lot of effort to suppress it, turning what was supposed to be a live-action film into a movie special effect.

Curled up in her own arms like a kitten, Lu Linglong was reading a book. Her self-destructive tendencies were well suppressed.

Besides his diligent cultivation, it is also related to the spiritual energy on the mountain. Now that Hyuga Hoshino has attained the status of a Daoist immortal, the spiritual energy on Maoshan Mountain is even more abundant.

Hinata Hoshino vaguely recalled Uzumaki Mito's words: to fill the void with love. In the end, perhaps Quanzhen's internal alchemy technique was indeed effective, but Lu Linglong ultimately lacked some care.

It's not just the love from elders that's needed, but also the friendship between friends and the love between men and women. These are anchors that help Lu Linglong stabilize herself, so she won't drift or sink.

"Drip drip"

The Mystic Mirror made a sound; someone wanted to video chat with him. Hinata Hoshino scratched his head; this Mystic Mirror seemed to be from the company.

"Real person, hehehe."

"Xiao Liao, you don't come here unless you need something. Don't laugh it off and pretend nothing's wrong."

"The real person is right."

Liao Zhong scratched his head, his teeth were yellow and somewhat unsettling, and with his fierce expression, Hinata Hoshino covered Lu Linglong's eyes.

Chapter 232 Chen Duo

Hinata Hoshino really wanted to ask Liao Zhong a question: Do you know how much harm your face can cause to a child's heart?

“Master, some time ago, we dismantled a secret society, the Medicine Immortal Society, and found a little girl who had been trained into a Gu-body Saint Child by those madmen.”

Liao Zhong's expression shifted from a beaming smile to anger, and then to a hint of obsequiousness.

“You are a compassionate master, a great man of your generation, and you would never stand by and watch someone die.”

"Actually, I do, really, I'm not lying."

Liao Zhong was instantly speechless, his face turning red. He wanted to curse, but dared not.

"Let me see what that girl looks like first, then I'll decide whether to go or not."

Liao Zhong felt as if his mood was on a roller coaster, going up and down, even at a 90-degree incline, the kind that goes downhill.

Hinata Hoshino looked at Chen Duo in the Xuan Guang Mirror, her face expressionless and still without a name. He stroked his chin, recalling the legacy of the Hermit of the Thatched Cottage; this little girl seemed quite suitable.

Originally, they wanted to find Huang Yongfa, an unaffiliated exorcist from the countryside, and let him practice on his own. Unexpectedly, he had already been taken in as a disciple by Feng Laosi and entered the Maoshan sect, so they could not let him obtain other inheritances.

The reason why the hermit of the thatched cottage cannot get wet is because his destiny is dominated by fire. His lineage is similar to that of Mao Xiaofang and his family, relying on their destiny to strengthen themselves.

Chen Duo survived the process of creating the Gu Body Saint Child, which shows her extraordinary destiny, making her a suitable candidate.

"Hmph! I heard you, Master!"

"Xiaoshuang, what's wrong?"

Lu Linglong was fine, but Ao Ningshuang, who brought in afternoon tea, was somewhat dissatisfied. First, there was Xia He, who had no one to rely on and was willing to take on a disciple, which was understandable given her strong compassion.

Lu Linglong, she could barely accept it, as other sects were not without ways to suppress Lu Linglong's innate supernatural abilities.

However, Ao Ning Shuang didn't know anything about the Gu-body Saint Child, only that she was a pretty little girl, which made her a little jealous.

Under Lu Linglong's somewhat bewildered gaze, Hinata Hoshino lifted her up and placed her aside. Lu Linglong had a strange feeling that if Hinata Hoshino's pocket could fit her, she might be put into his pocket.

Hinata Hoshino put his arm around Ao Ningshuang and shook her. After all, Ao Ningshuang was the first disciple of the sect, so his feelings for her were always different.

"Xiao Shuang, do you know what the Gu-body Holy Child is?"

"I don't know, Master, it's good that you know, hmph."

"The Gu Body Saint Child is a method created by the Medicine Immortal Society. Find forty-nine children, train them to lose their ability to perceive the outside world, to be unable to eat when hungry, to be unable to drink when thirsty, and to be unable to cry out in pain. If anyone fails to do so, they will be punished by having sharp blades pierce their hands and feet. If they commit the offense again, they will be killed. This is only the beginning."

"Just the beginning?"

Ao Ningshuang's voice trembled slightly. She had witnessed many human tragedies while traveling with Ao Tianlong, but this situation was only the beginning. She truly hadn't expected it.

"Yes, it begins. After this training is completed, the Gu will be planted. Each of the survivors will plant a Gu, and they will fight each other, letting the Gu devour each other. The last survivor will have all the Gu poison gathered in their body, and that is the Gu Body Saint Child."

The Gu-Body Saint Child is different from the Qinghe Gu Master. The Qinghe Gu Master only possesses one natal Gu, while the others are externally cultivated. The Gu-Body Saint Child, on the other hand, is no different from a Gu itself and only obeys commands.

Ao Ningshuang's eyes were a little red. Hinata Hoshino gently wiped away the tears that had fallen, feeling somewhat helpless. Immortality does not necessarily enhance one's character.

Hinata Hoshino shook his head helplessly and headed to the bunker that night. As for the afternoon, those who know, know.

“Master, we’ve tried many methods, but the Holy Child hasn’t responded at all. Furthermore, upon examination, the Gu poison within her has become integrated into her internal organs. We can’t save her…”

Hyuga Hoshino looked at Liao Zhong with a strange expression; another self-righteous patriarch. Although Liao Zhong sounded remorseful, he had meant well but made things worse.

"You want to give her a normal life, so why haven't you given her a name yet?"

"this?"

Liao Zhong was speechless. He felt that the name was not important; what was more important was to help her return to a normal state as soon as possible.

"Sir, let me explain on behalf of Lao Liao, it's because..."

"Alright, Lao Hua, it was my oversight. Yes, how can an ordinary little girl not have a name?"

Dr. Hua tried to explain, but Liao Zhong stopped him and admitted his mistake.

Separated by the glass, Hinata Hoshino and Chen Duo looked at each other. Chen Duo remained expressionless, staring straight ahead.

Hinata Hoshino shook his head. Liao Zhong handed him a protective suit, but Hinata Hoshino pushed it away, refusing Dr. Hua's offer to open the door. He walked directly through the glass to Chen Duo.

As soon as it approached Chen Duo, the Yuzhou Cauldron emitted light within the Divine Might Space. Interesting, either it was recognized by the Yuzhou Cauldron, or it was a descendant of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

Using the Feng Hou Qi Men method, Chen Duo's destiny was calculated. The result indicated that she was associated with water, was a descendant of Emperor Zhuanxu, and had the surname Chen, which was indeed correct.

Protected by the Qi of Water, it's no wonder that it was able to withstand the invasion of Gu for such a long time.

Hinata Hoshino smiled and moved closer to Chen Duo's face, but Chen Duo didn't react at all, as if the person in front of her didn't exist. Hinata Hoshino twisted his neck, and from Chen Duo's perspective, she saw Hinata Hoshino making various facial expressions from different angles.

Chen Duo remained expressionless, while Zhu Ye Qing would probably have already started playing around with him.

Even Hermione would push him away. Hinata Hoshino thought for a moment, then activated his Kirin Rinne Reincarnation Eye, his consciousness entering Chen Duo's mental space.

A dark and damp cave, members of the Medicine Immortal Society whose faces are obscured, and peers whose features are blurred.

Chen Duo sat upright in the center, as if this were her true home. Hyuga Hoshino's eyes flickered, forcibly altering the environment. Everyone rose and left, leaving only Chen Duo standing there, unmoved.

She suddenly felt a sense of confusion, not understanding why they had left, but she remained expressionless and motionless.

Hinata Hoshino appeared, sat cross-legged in front of Chen Duo, and made Chen Duo raise her face to meet his gaze, her eyes lifeless.

This was something he disliked the most, so he reached out and covered the corner of his mouth, forcing Chen Duo to give an ugly smile.

Chen Duo didn't move. Hinata Hoshino controlled a mirror to appear in front of Chen Duo. Chen Duo stared indifferently at her reflection in the mirror, at that ugly smile.

A crack appeared in Chen Duo's closed heart. What was it? She began to wonder.

Hinata Hoshino noticed Chen Duo's change in mindset, waved his hand, and the scene before him changed to a main street.

People came and went on the street, each with a different expression, and Chen Duo's heart wavered more and more.

Several children, around Chen Duo's age, skipped and jumped around with smiles on their faces. Chen Duo began to wonder why they didn't have to follow orders like she did and could act as they pleased.

Hinata Hoshino shrunk in size, becoming a child about the same age as Chen Duo, and took Chen Duo's hand.

Chen Duo stood there blankly, letting Hinata Hoshino lead her as they started running.

Chapter 233 Strong Medicine

The two ran past schools, rural fields, rivers, lakes, and seas.

Having seen many people, many expressions, and many landscapes, the cracks in Chen Duo's heart grew ever wider, as if she could break free of her cage at any moment.

Young Hinata Hoshino stopped, and Chen Duo stopped too. She wanted to see more because she hadn't yet figured out why, why others were different from her.

However, on the surface, she remained expressionless, and Hyuga Hoshino looked at her as if he could see through her thoughts.

He gently pushed Chen Duo, and Chen Duo suddenly felt her feet slip, as if she were falling off a cliff. There was no other way but to use drastic measures.

Eye Technique: Real Illusion

Chen Duo's vision went black, and when she saw light again, she found herself back in the state of a newborn, with no trace of Gu in her body.

Surrounded by doctors and nurses, she didn't turn her head, but glanced around and saw a woman who looked somewhat like her lying on the operating table.

The nurse noticed that Chen Duo hadn't made a sound, so she slapped her. Chen Duo tried her best to control herself, but she still burst into tears.

Chen Duo was confused. Why? What is this?

"Wife, it's my fault. If I had known, I would rather not have let you have this child than let you suffer like this."
