Crossover: The Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation, starting with cultivation with the Six Flowers Im

He began to organize his thoughts in his mind.

First, he needs to know the exact location and strength of the nine tailed beasts.

Chapter 331 Eavesdropping (Shadow)

This requires a great deal of intelligence gathering and analysis.

Secondly, he needs to find a safe way to collect the tailed beast chakra, avoiding unnecessary trouble during the collection process.

Finally, he also needs to find a way to fuse the tailed beast's chakra with his own power to ensure that he can obtain the power of the Six Paths without suffering a backlash.

After pondering for a long time, Nangong Yehua finally had some clues.

He stood up, walked to the window, opened it, and let the cool night breeze caress his face. He looked up at the starry sky, his heart filled with determination and confidence.

"No matter how difficult it is, I will complete this task."

He whispered to himself.

However, just as he was about to leave the room, he suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis.

He turned around abruptly and saw a dark figure standing in the doorway, staring coldly at him.

"Nangong Yehua, you are indeed extraordinary."

The shadowy figure said coldly,

"But do you think you can fool my eyes?"

Nangong Yehua's face darkened; he knew he might have been exposed. He clenched his fists tightly.

Nangong Yehua's gaze met the shadowy figure in the darkness, and the air between them seemed to freeze.

The silhouette of the dark figure was blurred in the dim moonlight, but his eyes pierced the darkness like sharp arrows, shooting straight at Nangong Yehua.

Nangong Yehua frowned slightly. He knew that this dark figure was no ordinary person; otherwise, it would not have been able to appear here so quietly.

He took a deep breath to calm himself down, and then slowly said, "I want to obtain all the tailed beasts. This is my next goal."

A flicker of surprise crossed the shadowy figure's eyes, but it quickly returned to calm:

What makes you think you can do it?

Nangong Yehua smiled slightly, a confident curve appearing at the corner of his mouth:

“I have my methods. But more importantly, I have unwavering faith and determination.”

The shadowy figure remained silent for a moment, then said coldly:

"Even if you obtain all the tailed beasts, so what? Powerful forces in this world do not necessarily bring peace."

Nangong Yehua took a deep breath, her gaze fixed firmly on the dark figure:

“I know. But I believe I can use these powers to bring true peace to the world.”

The shadowy figure frowned, seemingly pondering Nangong Yehua's words. After a while, he spoke, asking:

How can you guarantee that?

Nangong Yehua did not answer directly, but instead asked:

Do you know the fundamental truth that I already know?

The shadowy figure paused slightly, then nodded:

"Of course I know. Akatsuki is an organization that pursues peace. We bring together ninjas from all over the world to work together towards this goal."

Nangong Yehua nodded and continued:

“That’s right. But peace can’t be achieved just by talking. It requires strength, wisdom, and even more so, unwavering faith. And I am one of those people.”

A hint of doubt flashed in the shadowy figure's eyes as he scrutinized Nangong Yehua, trying to discern something from his expression.

But Nangong Yehua's face showed only determination and confidence, without the slightest wavering.

"How can I trust you?"

The shadowy figure asked again.

Nangong Yehua took a deep breath, then slowly spoke:

"I can prove it with my actions. I can first demonstrate some of my abilities to show you my potential to achieve this goal."

Chapter 332 I'll vouch for him!

The shadowy figure remained silent for a moment, then nodded:

"Fine. I'll give you a chance. But if you can't show us any hope, then don't blame us for being impolite."

Nangong Yehua smiled slightly and nodded:

"I see."

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became tense.

Nangong Yehua knew that he had to demonstrate sufficient strength to gain the trust of the shadowy figure.

He took a deep breath and then closed his eyes.

As his breathing gradually became steady, a powerful aura began to emanate from him.

The aura grew stronger and stronger, as if it would overturn the entire room. A hint of surprise flashed in the shadowy figure's eyes; he hadn't expected Nangong Yehua to be so powerful.

Nangong Yehua opened his eyes, a determined light shining within them. He stretched out his hands and began to form hand seals.

As he moved, the surrounding air began to fluctuate violently, as if an invisible force was gathering.

The shadowy figure stared intently at Nangong Yehua, afraid of missing a single detail.

He knew this would be the crucial moment that would determine whether he believed Nangong Yehua.

As Nangong Yehua's movements became faster and faster, the invisible force also grew stronger.

Finally, with a loud bang, a dazzling light burst forth from Nangong Yehua's hand, illuminating the entire room.

A flicker of shock crossed the shadowy figure's eyes. He hadn't expected Nangong Yehua to unleash such power. He realized he might have truly underestimated this young man.

Nangong Yehua withdrew her hands and smiled as she looked at the dark figure:

"This is only part of my strength. If you are willing to believe in me, I will prove my determination and ability with more actions."

The shadowy figure remained silent for a moment, then slowly spoke:

"Okay. I'll trust you this once. But if you let us down..."

Nangong Yehua interrupted him with a smile:

"Don't worry. I won't let you down."

After receiving Nangong Yehua's assurance, the shadowy figure turned and walked deeper into the base, each step appearing steady and resolute.

His silhouette stretched long in the dim corridor light, as if foreshadowing an important moment to come.

Nangong Yehua followed closely behind, feeling somewhat apprehensive, but mostly filled with anticipation and determination.

Asking for flowers

The two walked through a series of dark corridors and finally arrived at a closed door.

The shadowy figure stopped, gently pushed open the door, and a chilling aura rushed out. The room was dimly lit, with only a few dim yellow lights flickering.

Orochimaru's shadow stretched long under the light. He sat at a table, fiddling with a small object in his hand—the sealing container of the One-Tailed Shukaku.

Upon seeing the dark figure and Nangong Yehua's arrival, Orochimaru frowned slightly, a hint of wariness flashing in his eyes.

He put down the sealing container in his hand, stood up, and coldly sized up the two of them.

The shadowy figure didn't waste any words and spoke directly:

"Orochimaru, give Shukaku to Nangong Yehua."

His voice was cold and firm, leaving no room for doubt.

A hint of resentment and doubt flashed in Orochimaru's eyes. He looked at Nangong Yehua, then at the shadowy figure, as if he wanted to say something.

But the shadowy figure's gaze sent a chill down his spine, and he ultimately chose to compromise.

Orochimaru slowly walked to the table, picked up the sealing container, and handed it to Nangong Yehua.

His hands were trembling, and his eyes flickered with a complex light.

Chapter 333 People Help Nangong Yehua

Nangong Yehua took the sealed container and felt its weight and power.

He knew that this was Orochimaru's hard work and achievement over the years, and also the key to his next mission.

The shadowy figure nodded as the transaction between the two was completed, then said to Orochimaru:

"Don't question me, just do as I say."

His tone was filled with an unquestionable authority.

Orochimaru didn't speak, but silently nodded. Although he had many grievances and doubts in his heart, the current situation forced him to compromise.

He knew that the shadowy figure's power and status far surpassed his own, and he was powerless to resist.

The shadowy figure turned around, looked at the sealed container in Nangong Yehua's hand, and slowly said:

"I hope you won't disappoint me!"

His tone was full of expectation and trust.

Nangong Yehua took a deep breath and then nodded firmly:

You can trust me unconditionally.

His voice was strong and resonant, full of determination and confidence.

Their eyes met in the air, as if an invisible force was passing between them.

Orochimaru stood aside, watching this scene, and a slight ripple of emotion stirred within him.

He knew that he might have really underestimated this young man—Nangong Yehua.

Silence fell in the room again, broken only by the sound of the breeze outside the window and the chirping of insects in the distance.

Nangong Yehua gripped the sealing container tightly in her hand, her heart filled with anticipation and determination.

He knew that his mission had only just begun, but he was ready to meet the challenges.

The shadowy figure stood silently to the side, his gaze fixed on Nangong Yehua.

Nangong Yehua gripped the sealed container tightly in his hand, feeling the immense power contained within.

He took a deep breath, regulated his breathing, and prepared to begin this difficult and unknown process.

The dim lighting in the room cast dappled shadows on his face, making his expression appear even more resolute and mysterious.

He stared at the sealed container in his hand, as if he were having a silent conversation with Shukaku.

Nangong Yehua slowly stretched out her hands and placed the sealing container in her palms.

He closed his eyes, feeling the cool touch emanating from the container and the intense energy fluctuations it contained.

He took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly, as if preparing his body.

With a low shout from Nangong Yehua, he began to form hand seals.

His fingers danced nimbly in the air, each movement precise and powerful.

As the hand seals were completed, a powerful energy began to surge from the sealed container and converge towards Nangong Yehua's body.

Nangong Yehua felt a tremendous suction force pulling him tightly, as if trying to drag him into an unknown world.

He gritted his teeth and tried his best to maintain his balance.

He could feel the power of Shukaku gradually merging with his body; it was a feeling that was both painful and wondrous.

His body began to emit a faint light, which grew brighter and brighter, as if it were about to illuminate the entire room.

His expression turned painful and contorted, but he still clenched his teeth and didn't make a sound.

He knew it would be a difficult process, but he had to persevere.

As time went on, Nangong Yehua's body began to undergo noticeable changes.

His muscles became more muscular and powerful, and his skin became smoother and more delicate.
