The Master of Konoha's Legacy

In later generations, the power of nature has diminished.

Uchiha Tonan has accumulated a massive amount of Sage Chakra through his Sage Clan talent and Tamamo-no-Mae's Mangekyou Sharingan abilities.

However, once he was in this place, Uchiha Tonan discovered that a high concentration of natural energy could improve the quality of Sage Chakra.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Uchiha Tonan's training seems to be going smoothly right now.

In the eyes of beings capable of sensing the power of nature, the power of nature within a radius of several miles had formed a terrifying vortex, pouring into Uchiha Tonan.

The forces of nature from afar surged toward this place.

"Once I've finished cultivating immortal arts, I'll also refine my physical body."

It seems this time travel was well worth it.

A smile appeared on Uchiha Tunan's face as he slightly opened his eyes and glanced at the water.

Through the hot springs, rocks, and soil, one could see a group of villagers running wildly through the jungle.

Uchiha Tonan merely glanced at them before looking away, no longer paying attention to these primitive people.

"I still have plenty of time."

Unlike before, I no longer need to worry about arranging complicated things every day.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Tonan felt much better. He gently opened his hands and murmured:

"The omnipresent power of nature, ancient civilization, and a golden age where samurai and Onmyoji coexisted."

Hundreds of miles away, atop a precipitous peak stands a towering pine tree.

A fierce bird, entirely black, with its wings spread, was resting on the treetop.

Suddenly, the ferocious bird opened its eyes and looked into the distance.

"Wow!"

A screech filled with alarm and rage echoed through the night sky.

Then a strong wind blew, and a dark shadow darted into the sky.

At the same time, the group including Okabe had already spotted Kokabe running frantically ahead.

Finally, at the foot of the mountain, they grabbed Xiaojiao and pulled him back.

But then Xiao Jiao turned around and gritted his teeth, saying:

“Father, if you are afraid, please go back and don’t stop me.”

Looking at his stubborn son, He Bian Dajiao said sternly:

"No matter what happens later, don't do anything rash."

Xiao Jiao glanced at the group of strong, burly villagers following behind Da Jiao by the river, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart.

His anger subsided considerably, and he nodded silently.

Then, under the arrangement of Dajiao by the river, everyone took turns grabbing the vines and climbing up the mountainside one by one.

Looking at the towering cliff, a cold glint flashed in Xiaojiao's eyes.

Little Fish, you wait, I will definitely kill that bastard to avenge you!

These villagers are skilled hunters who have been hunting for years and can climb extremely fast.

Xiao Jiao was holding back a lot of anger, and by using both his hands and feet, he didn't fall too far behind.

Soon, the group had climbed to the halfway point of the mountain.

"Wow!"

Just then, a high-pitched screech came from the horizon.

The experienced villagers all stopped what they were doing and looked toward the source of the sound.

In the star-studded night sky, a dark dot seemed to be moving rapidly.

A villager exclaimed, "Village chief, it sounds like the cry of a stone swallow!"

He nodded, then lowered his voice and said in a deep voice:

"Don't worry, this monster only eats large, fast-moving wild animals."

Let's find a place to sit and stay still, and wait for it to fly away.

After he finished speaking, the villagers found suitable places to stand and pressed their bodies against the mountain wall, remaining motionless.

Shi Sangyan belongs to the category of monsters; the name was given to it by the older generation in the village.

After all, Shi Sangyan's territory was not too far from the village.

Every villager knew to avoid each other's territory when hunting, so they were no strangers to Shi Sangyan.

No one was afraid of the stone swallow that flew in at this moment.

After all, the difference between monsters and wild beasts lies in strength and wisdom.

Monsters also have their own habits; not all monsters eat people.

Shi Sangyan happened to be the kind of person who didn't like eating people.

The main reason is that humans are no different from ants in their eyes, not even enough to fill a tooth gap.

But the black dot in the night sky grew larger and larger, and the outline of Shi Sangyan could be vaguely seen.

He Bian Dajiao looked puzzled and said:

"That's strange, isn't the Stone Swallow only active during the day?"

They should be resting in the territory tonight.

An older villager standing nearby said thoughtfully:

"Monsters are intelligent, don't you think it's just dropping by?"

A new monster has indeed arrived at the mountaintop.

The atmosphere instantly became tense upon hearing this.

If a new monster really does appear on the mountaintop, all of them will only be destined to die.

Most people had already secretly given up.

Just then, a sharp-eyed villager exclaimed:

"Oh no, it's flying this way."

He Bian Dajiao quickly reassured the crowd, saying:

"Don't panic, it's definitely not here to hunt us. Judging from its trajectory, it's heading to the mountaintop."

Upon hearing this, the villagers became even more panicked.

"Village chief, let's go back quickly. It seems there really is a monster on the mountain."

"We can't move now that there's a monster, and there's nothing to cover us here."

The moment we make a move, Shi Sangyan will notice us.

What if it gets hungry?

........

The little horn, who had been silent all along, watched the growing dark shadow in the sky, then turned to the big horn by the river and whispered:

"If there really are monsters on the mountain, will the two of them fight?"

Riverside Big Horn frowned, shook his head, and said:

"Not necessarily, monsters are not wild beasts."

It's like encountering a stranger in the wild; it's mostly about communication.

Xiao Jiao nodded slightly, without saying much, but clenched her fists in resentment.

After all, he knew what was more important than what was not, and he foolishly went to his death knowing that there were monsters on the mountaintop.

The thought that Xiaoyu's miserable state was caused by a monster made her heart ache even more.

In the night sky, Shi Sangyan's eyes were fixed on the distant mountaintop. With his superhuman eyesight, his gaze easily pierced through the thin mist and he saw Uchiha Tonan standing on the water, meditating with his eyes closed.

Seeing that the creature that was affecting the natural forces of its territory was so small, it immediately adjusted its flight angle and swooped down toward the mountaintop.

"Be careful, it looks like it's about to attack."

Big Horn by the river opened his eyes wide and loudly reminded everyone.

Everyone clung tightly to the vines, pressing their bodies against the mountain wall.

"Wow!"

A huge shadow loomed over the mountain peak.

The swirling winds brought by the swooping geyser were exceptionally fierce, causing the jungle on the mountaintop to whirl and howl wildly.

Strong winds lashed against the mountainside, scraping away chunks of partially weathered rock.

A crimson light pierced through the mountaintop mist, gazing directly at the shadows above, and said with great interest:

"Birds that have been strengthened by the constant baptism of the forces of nature."

[Chapter 426: Slaying a Demon with One Hand, Mistakenly Identifying a Mountain God]

As Shi Sangyan drew closer to the summit, the powerful wind from its flapping wings made it impossible for the people hiding on the mountainside to open their eyes.

The perpetual mist that lingered on the mountaintop was then blown away.

As the waves rose and fell, Uchiha Tonan came into Shi Sangyan's view.

Uchiha Tonan looked up at the overwhelming shadows, his curiosity gradually turning into disappointment.

Although it was just a fleeting glimpse, Uchiha Tonan could still roughly judge that the big guy in front of him was not much different in essence from birds in later generations.

It's just that being in a place with abundant natural energy all year round has caused it to mature prematurely.

Aside from being much stronger, he has no special abilities.

According to the memories obtained from the forced soul-searching of the little fish, the legendary monsters possessed intelligence that was no less than that of humans.
