As long as Yalin is willing, he can activate Sage Mode at any time and maintain it permanently.

Even in battle, it can constantly absorb natural energy to generate Sage Chakra, making it the most perfect Sage Mode.

Even in a different dimension devoid of natural energy, one can generate natural energy through the Demon King's talent.

This was also an experiment for him to integrate the Eight Gates into his own combat system.

During his six months of trying to open the Eight Gates, Yalin discovered a major problem.

Once the Eight Gates are opened, the flow of chakra accelerates many times over, becoming incredibly violent and difficult to control.

Sage Mode requires the combination of natural energy and chakra to generate Sage Chakra. This process requires focused attention and extreme control of the mind over the body.

If an ordinary person is even slightly careless during this process, they will suffer serious consequences.

Therefore, Sage Mode and Eight Gates Formation will conflict in actual operation.

Even though Yalin's physique and spirit were incredibly strong, and his control over chakra was ridiculously high.

However, once the seventh gate, the Gate of Shock, is opened, the power that exceeds the limit will also affect his control, not to mention the eighth gate, the Gate of Death.

Yalin has made various attempts in this regard, and so far, he has seen initial success. However, it is still some time away from being completely perfect.

If Cixian before me were only this superficial state, I could smash him to ashes with a single punch.

However, if Yalin can sense a threat, the opponent must have some formidable backup plan, so we still need to be careful.

It's possible that Jigen could also transform and possess abilities in several stages.

"I wonder if Master Cixian would like to spar with me along with the monks of this temple?" Yalin said with a smile, showing no intention of immediately breaking off relations.

It is unwise to act rashly when facing an enemy of unknown origin.

Moreover, the other party has no intention of revealing themselves, so let's play along for now.

For Yalin, this was not difficult.

"I am only proficient in some Buddhist teachings, and I am not good at fighting," Yishi said calmly, showing no intention of making a move.

Even while gazing at Yarin, her eyes seemed to want to see through the person before her to Kaguya, who resided within the Divine Tree.

If it weren't for Kaguya, the human in front of him wouldn't even have the right to speak to him.

"If that's the case, then it's a real shame." Yalin sighed and slowly patted Isshiki's shoulder with his right hand.

Yi Shi frowned instantly, a murderous intent rising in his heart, but he suppressed it in an instant.

He could only let Yalin pat him on the shoulder, feeling quite annoyed.

Although he has now put aside his arrogance as an Otsutsuki and begun to integrate into human life, he still retains many of his past attitudes.

A thousand years later, Isshiki was able to maintain his manners at all times, and even when his subordinates kicked over his dining table, he was not angry at all. Instead, he maintained his elegant demeanor and conjured up another table to continue eating.

With only two days left to live, he still leisurely arrived in Konoha, even asking a ninja for directions, displaying the demeanor of a boss.

He is clearly not that mature now.

"Please rest assured, Master Cixian, since we have taken a liking to each other, I will definitely show leniency towards this temple."

Sensing the emotions, Yalin subtly moved his hand away and said casually.

"As the saying goes, even if you don't respect the monk, you should respect the Buddha."

Once we get back and gather information on Cixian, if he really is an enemy, then we'll find a way to eliminate him.

Even if Yalin can't win, he still has the top-tier Kaguya-hime.

The current Kaguya is much stronger than the one Naruto and Sasuke were dealing with.

Even with his unparalleled talent and various gifts, Yalin still needs to develop further before he can be confident of reaching the top.

"Thank you for your consideration." Itsuki glanced at his shoulder and said with a smile, his attitude becoming much more amiable.

It's already been defiled to this extent by these ant-like creatures on the planet; it would be too much of a waste to expose it further.

The concept of sunk costs applies even in the Otsutsuki family.

Therefore, he silently made a grudge against Yalin in his heart, vowing to grind this ant to dust if he ever had the chance.

......

Inside the temple, many monks stared in disbelief at the two people chatting and laughing at the entrance, their outward appearance seemingly harmonious.

The young novice monk's eyes were filled with anticipation, and his heart was pounding with excitement.

It turns out that Master Cixian was a highly skilled person who kept his abilities hidden, and he was actually quite familiar with the Sixth Heaven Demon King.

Great, we are saved.

With just a few kind words from Master Tzu-hsien, this crisis can surely be resolved.

Unfortunately, their hopes were dashed.

As Yalin and Isshiki finished their conversation, the two looked at the crowd again.

He remained silent, avoiding getting involved in this battle of ants.

Yalin looked at the abbot and several senior monks, maintaining his usual smile.

Then he began to hammer people cleanly and decisively.

Faced with the choice, he chose to let go of the sea.

He merely displays an overwhelming amount of chakra to bully others; his skills are rather ordinary, and his fighting spirit is unremarkable.

This made Isshiki both laugh and angry; Kaguya's choice of subordinates was truly incompetent.

That's terrible taste.

However, considering that Kaguya only came from a branch family, this is not surprising.

Someone like Momoshiki Otsutsuki has an extraordinary status within the Otsutsuki clan. He is a nobleman of the main branch and has the right to enjoy the chakra fruits grown from the Divine Tree.

Of course, normally the Chakra Fruit would be used to refine elixirs for consumption.

Jinshiki was the one who split off from the family, and his family had served the Momoshiki lineage for generations.

If it comes to a critical moment, Kinshiki would even die for Momoshiki.

Although Isshiki and Kaguya are a pair of tree planters, their relationship is not so strict, but they still follow a superior-subordinate relationship.

Therefore, when Kaguya refused to become a sacrifice and instead launched a surprise attack that severely injured him and fed him to the Ten-Tails, Isshiki was somewhat bewildered.

I never expected Kaguya to be so bold and ambitious.

However, upon closer reflection, it seems perfectly reasonable.

No matter what kind of Otsutsuki it is, it should follow the will of the Otsutsuki and must devour countless planet fruits to continuously evolve until it becomes the Otsutsuki god.

Kaguya's idea was quite in line with the philosophy of the Otsutsuki clan.

Even if it were Isshiki himself, in the event of an irreversible death, he would entrust the will of the Otsutsuki to a successor he would be willing to accept.

They demanded that the other party become the new Otsutsuki, and ascend towards the realm of gods.

However, this cannot hide the fact that Kaguya's judgment is poor.

While Isshiki was mocking Kaguya in his heart, Yarin had already taken down everyone in the temple, and generously refrained from demolishing it.

“Master Cixian, if you feel restless and yearn for more, you are welcome to visit my home.”

Yalin then approached Cixian and extended a very warm invitation.

"No need, I'm quite used to living here," Yishi refused without hesitation.

Yalin and Kaguya have a close relationship. Why would he run right under Kaguya's nose? Is he afraid he won't die?

"It's such a pity, we were so destined to be together," Yalin sighed, his regret genuine.

After searching through most of the map, he finally found this cunning old fox, so naturally he was reluctant to let him go.

We'll mark Cixian as the key figure; whether he's friend or foe, we'll wait until he gathers some intelligence before making any decisions.

......

As he watched Yalin leave, Isshiki's expression darkened.

He was in a terrible mood after being so humiliated by a mere ant, yet he was helpless.

A moment later, Yishi made up his mind to run away.

Although it was unlikely that the natives would discover anything unusual, it was best to leave this place as a precaution and find another place to live in seclusion.

He will definitely get his revenge after he is reincarnated.

Neither Kaguya nor her subordinates will be spared.

......

"The situation of the gods and cultivators on this island has been ascertained, and the distribution of various forces is also on the map. We can send the Sixth Legion to land and unify the island."

In the vast sea, Yalin appeared in the command room of the steamship of the Forest Kingdom and placed an island map on the table.

"Yes, the Sixth Legion is ready at any time!"

Upon seeing Yalin, the general leading the legion saluted him and then looked expectantly at the map.

As expected of Lord Yalin, this information is truly detailed.

"Don't make too much of a commotion. Conduct psychological counseling before landing and restrain the soldiers from misbehaving, or they will be dealt with according to military law," Yalin instructed.

Having been at sea for so long, the soldiers must be restless. If they were to vent their frustrations, it would surely lead to disaster.

He valued military discipline quite a lot.

Of course, Yalin would not be stingy with rewards when they were due.

"Yes!" the general replied hastily.

With Lord Yalin's prestige, those soldiers were in awe of him with just those words.

Before he could say anything more, he discovered that Yalin had vanished without a trace.

......

At Mount Myōboku, Yalin arrived with Gamamaru and immediately activated the spherical memory stone.

"Ribbit, what's wrong with you?" Gamamaru was completely bewildered. The other party had actually used the Flying Thunder God Technique to quickly return, which was quite unusual.
