Myoki Mountain.

A huge hemispherical crater, as if a piece of it had been cut out of the earth, was far away from the sky.

The white snake body lay horizontally in the pit, motionless, like a dead corpse.

From its slightly open and closed mouth, it can be seen that the White Snake Immortal is not about to die, but is struggling tenaciously on the edge of life and death.

Part of the body disappeared in the explosion of Baoyu, and it was shocking to see the white bones stained with flesh and blood.

Two figures walked out of the mouth of the White Snake Immortal, they were Bai Shi and Liu Li.

Their clothes and skin were stained with the mucus from White Snake Immortal's body, but other than that, there were no injuries on their bodies.

Baishi turned around and glanced at the White Snake Immortal behind him. The flame of his soul had not been extinguished. Although the vitality in his body was rapidly passing away, he had not died. He was still holding on to his last breath and successfully pulled himself back from the edge of death.

"Stinky... stinky little brat, please help me get treatment... otherwise... I'll eat you... cough cough..."

White Snake Immortal coughed and spoke weakly to Shiraishi in a rather rude tone.

Shiraishi didn't pay attention, walked to White Snake Immortal, stretched out his palm and pressed it on White Snake Immortal's snake body, converting his own magic chakra into vitality, inputting it into White Snake Immortal's body, completely pulling it back from the edge of death.

.

While he was performing medical magic, he sighed at the physical strength of the White Snake Immortal.

His body has collapsed to this extent, but he is still alive and has not died. He is worthy of being a psychic creature that has been practicing for thousands of years.

Its vitality has reached an incredible level.

Ignoring Baishi and the White Snake Immortal, Liuli walked to the center of the pit and saw a blue orb as big as an adult lying there, with the word "oil" engraved on it.

The orb he wears.

After the explosion, the orb was still intact.

Liuli walked in front of the blue orb and saw that it was smooth and stain-free, and her figure was clearly reflected on it. She felt incredible.

With her knowledge, she was completely unable to identify what material this orb was made of and how it was polished into its shape.

Even the White Snake Immortal almost died in the explosion, but this orb was able to be preserved intact, which shows how strong the orb is.

Just from what you can see with the naked eye, you know that the orb itself is a secret treasure that is hard to find in the ninja world.

Around the orb, there are solidified pieces of meat of different sizes scattered around. Not surprisingly, these solidified pieces look like rock-hard meat, and should be the remnants of the Great Toad Immortal.

As a being at the same level as the White Snake Immortal, its physical strength has reached an incredible level. Even in the terrifying explosion, some of it remained and did not completely disappear in the explosion.

Although Liuli doesn't understand research matters, bringing these pieces of meat back to the research institute of the Ghost Country will definitely have a huge promotion effect on the scientific cause of the Ghost Country.

On the other side, Shiraishi loosened his palm, left the body of Immortal White Snake, exhaled with relief, and continued to deliver life force to Immortal White Snake, which also consumed a lot of him.

Moreover, even if all his vitality is exhausted, it may not be possible to completely recover the White Snake Immortal in this state.

All he could do was to get the White Snake Immortal out of danger, so that his healing magic could work on its own, and he could slowly recover by relying on his own medical abilities.

White Snake Immortal understands this truth and does not think that a human can immediately recover from his injuries.

The reason why it and the Great Toad Sage's chakra can surpass the tailed beast is because their own bodies are at least the same level as the tailed beast, or even larger.

The amount of chakra that can be accommodated in the body will naturally be more.

Therefore, once beings of their level are severely injured, apart from relying on their own strong recovery power, it is difficult for outsiders to play a key role in their injuries.

Baishi came to Liuli's side and saw the blue orb that Liuli had been looking at.

He reached out and touched the blue orb, turned on his own perception ability to the maximum state, and carefully sensed the condition of the orb.

"how?"

Liuli asked with interest.

"It should be a substance made from special chakra jade and pure natural energy between heaven and earth. The previous explosion was a unique phenomenon caused by the natural energy in the orb exceeding the limit. I have done similar experiments in the past, but

The power of the explosion after the experimental runaway was not so exaggerated."

Shiraishi released his palm, confirming that the explosive impact released by the orb before was not magic, but simply absorbed too much natural energy, causing the energy inside to overload and start to go berserk.

Unlike chakra, which is energy that is tempered by one's own physical and mental strength, natural energy comes from nature and is a ubiquitous energy.

This energy, before being tamed, will show extremely violent aggression.

This is also the reason why practitioners of senjutsu must have strong chakra as the foundation to practice.

Normally, a ninja possesses powerful chakra, and his physical ability must be outstanding and he must have extremely strong vitality.

Therefore, by integrating natural energy, one can also rely on a strong body to withstand the backlash of violent natural energy and master the power of nature. On the contrary, under the erosion of natural energy, various problems will occur in the body, and eventually

Died in the process of absorbing natural energy.

Just like this, after gathering a large amount of natural energy without channeling or controlling it, the explosive power produced by it going wild is no weaker than an attack like the Tailed Beast Jade, and is even more terrifying.

A being like White Snake Sennin almost lost his life. If a human ninja faced such an attack, it would directly turn into nothingness along with the surrounding earth.

"I see, it's no wonder that the surrounding earth has withered away and has no vitality at all. Does this way of operation form the concept of 'shu'?"

Liuli squatted down, grabbed a handful of sand on the ground, and let it fly away in the wind between her fingers.

She could feel that the vitality in the earth had been lost. It was estimated that within many years, this place would become a barren land with no humans or animals.

Shiraishi shook his head and replied: "No, although it is very close, strictly speaking, this cannot be classified into the ranks of 'shu'."

Technique is the concept of shaping, and this is just a physical application of natural energy, which is essentially the same as the energy group formed by the materialization of chakra.

It's just that natural energy has violent properties, and when gathered together, it will produce explosive impacts that destroy the earth.

It seems to be a ‘skill’, but it is still far from a ‘skill’.

The reason why senjutsu is senjutsu is that it brings natural energy into another realm and combines it with chakra to form new matter.

This new substance, like chakra, can form the concept of 'technique'.

However... Shiraishi thought of the argument between "jutsu and seals" given to him by Indra. In ancient times, there was no concept of jutsu and seals. As the inheritors of the Otsutsuki clan, their every move is a jutsu.

, and no need to seal it.

Bai Shi looked at the huge gem in front of him and fell into deep thought.

"What's wrong?"

"Some things came to mind. I'm thinking whether it's time to give the fire elf a new energy core."

Shiraishi smiled with interest.

Although this orb is a treasure, it needs to be filled with energy to be effective.

Judging from the upper limit of the orb, it can at least store senjutsu chakra comparable to that of a tailed beast.

If this orb is used as the new 'heart' of the fire elf, it might stand out from all the brothers and sisters and become the strongest clone.

However, this is just a conjecture.

As for whether it can be done, we still need to take the orb back and study it to know the answer.

Even if it can be used as the new 'heart' of the fire elf, it cannot be completed in an instant, it will take time.

Bai Shi jumped over the orb and jumped up along the pit.

In a moment, Baishi jumped out of the pit, followed closely by Liuli.

The two stood on the edge of the pit and looked at the surrounding environment. Everything around them was flattened by the shock wave generated by the explosion. There were bursts of sand and dust, and not a single living thing was seen.

Almost half of Miaomu Mountain was destroyed by the impact of natural energy.

Ruins made of sand, dust and rubble are everywhere.

Only the temple area relatively far away from here is relatively well preserved and has not been destroyed.

The ninjas of the Demon Country, who had stayed away from the core battlefield from the beginning, were not seriously affected.

There are still air troops from the Kingdom of Oni patrolling in the sky, monitoring the land of Mount Myoki from the sky.

"Master Shiraishi, Master Liuli."

Several Jōnin from the Kingdom of Ghosts rushed over in disgrace and respectfully came to Shiraishi and Ruri.

There were cracks in the chakra armor on their bodies, and there was bleeding on the waist, arms or thighs, but the injuries were not serious and they could just rest for a while.

"How's it going?"

"The remaining Myoboku toads began to flee toward the east."

"Where is the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki? Have you found any trace of him?"

Shiraishi asked.

Several Jonin looked at each other, and one of them said helplessly: "No trace of the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki was found."

Bai Shi nodded and did not ask further, but glanced towards the gray sky.

The natural energy of this world was so chaotic that even the weather was affected, and the temperature began to drop rapidly.

This phenomenon is very abnormal.

"Do you want to continue the pursuit?"
To be continued...
