Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 244 Crossing the Yellow Springs

The powerful life energy instantly made the area around Uchiha Yangyi bloom like in the height of summer. The trees rejuvenated, and the withered grass sprouted new green shoots and grew wildly to more than half a meter tall.

Mina and Kushina, who were chatting inside the house, also sensed such powerful chakra, and since it was right in the courtyard, they quickly rushed out.

Even Geiz, who was having trouble sleeping because of Sasuke's noise, raised his bear head. However, after discovering that the source was Uchiha Yoichi, he shook his head and went back to sleep. He also casually pushed Sasuke off his neck, causing Sasuke to fall flat on his backside.

"Naruto!?"

When Kushina arrived in the backyard, she immediately saw Naruto lying next to Uchiha Yoichi and quickly went over to pick him up.

"What's wrong with Naruto?"

Mina Uzumaki also rushed over. At this moment, Yoichi Uchiha spoke up, "Naruto is fine. He's just missing something that doesn't belong to him. He'll wake up soon."

Just as Uchiha Yoichi finished speaking, Naruto, who was in Kushina's arms, woke up. Upon seeing Kushina, he rubbed his eyes and said, "Mom, what brings you here?"

"Naruto, are you alright?"

"It's okay, I was just asleep."

Naruto struggled to jump down, looked around, but couldn't remember what had just happened; he only remembered being called over by Uchiha Yoichi, and then he had no recollection of anything else.

The reason why Uchiha Yoichi first extracted Ashura's chakra was to evolve the Rinnegan. After that, he would also extract Indra's chakra from Sasuke's body. Why should his son become the host of someone else's chakra?

Kushina checked on Naruto, then asked Mina to watch over him, before glaring fiercely at Uchiha Yoichi. However, Uchiha Yoichi noticed Kushina's gaze and made a gesture to her, which immediately made Kushina feel embarrassed and angry, fearing that Mina might suddenly turn around and see it.

After confirming that Naruto was alright, it was almost lunchtime. However, Uchiha Yoichi was not in the mood for food. He went straight to the basement to prepare to absorb Ashura's chakra.

The Ashura chakra absorbed from Naruto's body was significantly more than the Ashura chakra present in Hashirama's cells.

Upon arriving in the basement, Uchiha Yoichi began refining Ashura's chakra.

However, Ashura's chakra was also constantly resisting, after all, the chakra contained Ashura's will, the will passed down from the Ninja Sect.

"it's useless"

Uchiha Yoichi had practiced mental techniques and absorbed what appeared to be the chakra of the Ten-Tails. In terms of both mental energy and chakra, he far surpassed Ashura's chakra.

Moreover, Uchiha Yangyi ignored the resistance from the other party within his body, gradually dividing Ashura's chakra, and then used mental techniques to obliterate the Ashura's will within the divided Yang Release chakra.

Little by little, like a dull knife cutting flesh, Ashura, the third Ōtsutsuki, was completely wiped out from the ninja world.

At Mount Myōboku, Gamamaru suddenly woke up, shook his toad head, and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with Hagoromo now?"

As the only sage in the ninja world who has mastered Yin-Yang techniques, Gamamaru can communicate with people in the Pure Land in his dreams. He was just talking to Hagoromo Otsutsuki.

However, the latter suddenly broke off the communication with it, waking Gamamaru from his dreamlike state in the Pure Land.

"The only thing that could make Hagoromo so concerned is something that happens in the ninja world. Fukasaku, come here for a moment."

In the end, Gamamaru directly called out to Fukasaku the Sage. As a toad that has lived for thousands of years, it has mastered many secret techniques, most of which are beyond the scope of ninjutsu.

Upon receiving the news, Fukasaku the toad rushed over and said to the Great Toad Sage, "You're awake, sir! What's the matter?"

"Fukasaku, if you have time, please have Jiraiya come to Mount Myōboku. There's something I need his help with."

"Jiraiya? He hasn't been around much lately, seems to be mostly on missions. I'll go ask him."

Upon hearing this, the sage continued, "Is there anything else, sir?"

Gamamaru shook his head and said, "That's all. It's just this one thing. You'd better get Jiraiya here as soon as possible."

The only thing that could make Hagoromo look so grim was the Child of Prophecy. However, in Gamamaru's precognitive dream, even the Child of Prophecy had to accept Hagoromo's gift in order to save the ninja world.

It initially supported Hagoromo's occupation of the Pure Land in order to accumulate strength and prepare for possible future changes in the ninja world.

Pure Land.

As Hagoromo Otsutsuki watched the Yang energy mark on his palm fade more and more, he knew that if this continued, the Yang energy mark would disappear completely.

Once it completely disappears, Ashura's chakra will vanish entirely from the ninja world.

"Asura"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki murmured softly, but after surveying the ninja world, he found no suitable vessel for his chakra to descend upon. As for descending upon the reanimated body, his chakra would likely burst the reanimated body, making it impossible.

"Sorry, Asura."

Although Hagoromo Otsutsuki was anxious, there was nothing he could do at the moment. The only thing he could do was to protect the Six Paths Chakra and prevent the person who stole Ashura's Chakra from obtaining the power to unlock the Rinnegan.

Theoretically, the combined chakra of Ashura and Indra could evolve into a pair of Rinnegan, but it would require a key that brings about a qualitative change.

The Six Paths and those below the Six Paths are completely different; one needs to come into contact with a little bit of the Six Paths chakra, which can also be called the chakra of the Divine Tree.

Because of his carelessness last time, the reincarnation of the previous Indra came into contact with the Six Paths Chakra and evolved a pair of Rinnegan.

This time, he will definitely guard against it at all costs, and not let a single bit of Six Paths Chakra leak out.

As for the one in the ninja world, the one left behind by his mother probably doesn't have the chakra to help him awaken the Rinnegan a second time.

"Hong, has Yangyi not come all day?"

When Tsunade brought Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju back to the office, she hadn't seen Yoichi Uchiha yet, so she asked Kurenai Yuhi who was standing next to her.

"No, Lady Tsunade."

Kurenai Yuhi was also a little puzzled, so she said to Tsunade, "Even if Yoichi-sensei's main body is busy, he usually sends a clone over, but he's been free all day today."

"What's that guy doing? I hope he's not in trouble."

Upon hearing this, Tsunade bit her finger with some worry. Thinking of this, she disregarded her concerns about going to the Uchiha clan and said to her grandfather and great-uncle, "I want to go to the Uchiha clan's territory."

Unless absolutely necessary, Tsunade really didn't want to run into Minamikoto, because she was the newcomer, and even greeting her usually made Minamikoto a little resistant.

Hashirama Senju reassured him, "Tsuna, it should be alright. There was a very strong chakra presence at the Uchiha clan compound this morning; it's possible the Fifth Hokage was training there."

"That's right, and that chakra is quite similar to my older brother's. Although I can't really feel it now, there's no chaos in the Uchiha clan, so we should be fine."

Tobirama Senju also spoke up, and their words reassured Tsunade a little. However, Tsunade still asked Shizune to run an errand for her, hoping that if everything was alright, it would put her mind at ease.

On the other side, the Uchiha clan.

Uchiha Yoichi did not come out after entering the basement at noon until late at night.

Ashura's chakra is enormous, and each time a portion of his chakra is divided, his will must be slowly ground down using mental techniques.

This guy also received a gift from Hagoromo Otsutsuki, and even after reincarnating for over a thousand years, his will remains exceptionally strong and is extremely difficult to erase.

Fortunately, no matter how difficult it is to erase, it is all rootless water. After a whole afternoon of slow erosion, Ashura's chakra is less than a third of its original amount.

After extinguishing Ashura's will within another wisp of Yang Release chakra and devouring it with the Spirit Transformation Technique, Uchiha Yoichi suddenly felt a change in his own chakra.

The chakra he absorbed from Ashura was now almost equal to his own. Once the two chakras reached a balance, he began to evolve.

The Yin Release chakra of the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, after obtaining the same amount of chakra, directly merges and complements each other, and begins to evolve into a higher quality chakra.

The effect was reflected in his eyes, causing the pattern on Uchiha Yoichi's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan to turn into purple Rinnegan rings.

"Has it already become the Rinnegan?"

Although numerous Rinnegan abilities appeared in his mind, Uchiha Yoichi still found it hard to believe that he had acquired the Rinnegan so easily.

"The Guiding Force of All Things".

Uchiha Yoichi raised his hand and aimed it at the experimental bed in the distance, then directly used the power of the Rinnegan.

The powerful suction force immediately pulled the test bed toward Uchiha Yoichi. Then, Uchiha Yoichi used Shinra Tensei, and a powerful repulsive force emanated from his body, causing a spherical depression to appear on the ground.

Fortunately, Uchiha Yoichi reacted quickly and withdrew the repulsive force of Shinra Tensei, only shattering the test bed.

That's his house. If he hadn't taken back the repulsive force of Shinra Tensei, the house above the basement would have collapsed.

"I was a little excited, I'll be more careful next time."

After obtaining the Rinnegan, Uchiha Yoichi felt much better, and he then began to study the abilities of the Rinnegan; after his chakra evolved, his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan also evolved, and he gained many more abilities.

The Six Paths abilities are the most basic abilities of the Rinnegan. As long as you have chakra, you can use them. More difficult ones include the Rinne Rebirth Technique and the Planetary Devastation Technique. One is a Six Paths technique that resurrects the dead, and the other is an extremely powerful sealing technique.

Furthermore, there is another eye technique, which is a unique eye technique that the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan evolves into the Rinnegan. It is a Rinnegan eye technique that is evolved from the combination of two Mangekyou eye techniques.

Crossing the River to the Underworld!

The domain that controls life and death: once this eye technique is used, life and death within a one-kilometer radius are controlled by Uchiha Yoichi; he is the god within this domain.

"Let's test it outside."

Uchiha Yoichi came out of the basement, but when he came up, he saw Mikoto and Mina sitting in the living room, seemingly chatting and waiting for him.

"Master Yoichi."

"Yangyi, are you alright? Would you like something to eat?"

Mina and Mikoto asked one after the other, and their concern made Uchiha Yoichi smile. He then said, "No need, I was training just now and I'm going outside to test a ninjutsu. You two rest first, don't wait for me."

"Okay, fine!"

Upon hearing this, Mina said somewhat reluctantly, "We've been sleeping together as a trio lately, and now that there's one less, I don't know if I'll be able to sleep."

After Uchiha Yoichi left, Uzumaki Mina immediately hugged Mikoto's arm and kept nuzzling her, saying, "Mikoto, let's go rest."

"I'd better go check on Sasuke, Mina, stop fooling around~"

"Sasuke is already three years old, he doesn't need his mother to lull him to sleep anymore. Mikoto, you can stay with me tonight."

Mina chuckled, but didn't loosen her grip on Mikoto at all, clinging to her and pulling her, leading the slightly flushed Mikoto into the house.

After leaving home, Uchiha Yoichi went directly to a lush forest outside the village.

"This is fine."

After obtaining the Rinnegan, Uchiha Yoichi discovered that he seemed to be able to discern the strength of a life, and even felt that he could determine whether a life would be long-lasting.

For example, the surrounding trees will probably die after another ten or so years.

"The Ferry Crossing to the Underworld".

He slightly opened his Rinnegan, and an invisible domain instantly spread outwards, stopping only after reaching a distance of one kilometer.

Within this realm, Uchiha Yangyi's perception of life force was even more acute; it even felt as if he could control everything with the slightest gesture.

"It's such a magical feeling, like being a creator. Extraction."

After Uchiha Yoichi used his ability, the life energy of all the trees and bushes within a kilometer radius was forcibly extracted. Even the rats on the ground couldn't escape; after running around for a while, they collapsed and died, losing all life force.

All the trees and grass withered and died in a very short time. In an instant, the leaves turned yellow and fell one after another, and even the tree trunks withered and cracked.

"What a powerful eye technique! It's like the Chakra God Tree. No, it might even be more powerful than the God Tree."

Uchiha Yang looked at the green energy in his hand. This was the life energy of all living things within a kilometer, which he had forcibly extracted.

It can be consumed by itself or given to others.

Uchiha Yoichi tried it out, imbuing the life energy in his hand into a withered tree beside him. After he injected the life energy, the withered tree was immediately brought back to life.

Moreover, within just a few dozen seconds, the tree grew rapidly, quickly reaching three times its original size, becoming an "outlier" in this forest.

"If you keep absorbing life energy, you might never die, and neither will the people around you."

Uchiha Yangyi smiled with satisfaction. Then he changed locations and tried the Yellow Springs Crossing several more times, absorbing life energy himself each time.

However, the life energy of the trees and grass within a kilometer was too scarce, and it only restored a little bit of his chakra.

"If there are enemies, you can try to extract their life energy, but I don't know if it will be effective against enemies at the Six Paths level."

After several trials, Uchiha Yoichi understood the eye technique and then headed towards the village.
