Chapter 114: The Shock Left Behind by Ten Thousand Times.
(A reader has been asking about the White Snake Immortal. My answer is: The White Snake Immortal will appear in later storylines; he's quite important and won't be abandoned or forgotten.)
On the open field, the raging wind was brought to a standstill by that overwhelming pressure.
"This power... it's the teacher!?"
Kurama's scarlet beast eyes snapped open, gazing at the sky in the direction of Mount Myōboku. His fluffy tail wagged excitedly, and his voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement.
"Is the teacher going to personally cleanse the world?"
Nine-Lama paced back and forth in the wilderness, his tail tip swaying incessantly, full of anticipation.
It had previously advised Wanci that it could use its absolute power to purify the strife-ridden world. At the time, the teacher simply said he understood, and it has been waiting silently ever since.
Now that the teacher has suddenly unleashed such terrifying power, in the eyes of the Nine Lamas, it must be that he is about to take action to quell all the wars in the world!
"Haha, I'm going to work hard with the teacher then!"

Inside the cave at Falling Fox Cliff
Senju Tsuru, who was originally focused on studying swordsmanship, was so shocked by this sudden and terrifying pressure that her whole body went numb.
"My god, this power! Black Zetsu, what kind of terrifying power is this?"
"Senju-tsuru exclaimed in surprise."
The Black Zetsu attached to his left hand at this moment had long since put away its usual playful smile. Its dark face was extremely solemn, and the chakra around its body was slightly tense.
It was all too familiar with this power; it was the unique might of the Great Sage of Mount Myōboku.
"Hmm, some kind of power beyond imagination. I hope this has nothing to do with your human world..."
Black Zetsu spoke in a deep voice, his tone filled with undisguised solemnity.
It pondered to itself: I just don't know what happened that could make the great immortal unleash such terrifying power.
Could it be that the great immortal is really going to personally purify and cleanse the human world, washing away all the chaos with blood?
"Oh my god..."
Senju Tsuru wiped the cold sweat from her forehead, muttering with lingering fear, "This world actually has such terrifying beings..."
Black Zetsu fell silent, not responding, but his doubts grew stronger.

In mid-air above Mount Myōboku, the dazzling light surrounding Manji gradually subsided. He frowned slightly, a hint of helplessness and melancholy on his face: "I still can't do it."
He had just used all his skills, layering the Tenseigan, Rinnegan, the five great immortal techniques, and the power of the dragon vein.
Despite his overwhelming power and dazzling brilliance, his own strength remained firmly stuck at its bottleneck, unable to break through even a fraction of the way, and ultimately he was unable to overcome the system's limitations.
It's like constantly piling on special effects.
The special effects are getting stronger, more dazzling, and more spectacular.
Wanci sighed softly, his hands behind his back, his voice tinged with regret: "However, with my current power, I can create a Pure Land, but I still need the power of Yin-Yang Escape."
I have realized ten thousand times that I am capable of creating a Pure Land.
However, it requires Yin-Yang Escape.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Manji suddenly sensed an anomaly in the surrounding space, his expression changing slightly: "Not good! The power that just erupted has broken through the barrier of Mount Myōboku, and it has probably already leaked into the mortal realm!"
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, Wanci no longer hesitated.
Instantly dissipate all the accumulated power around you!
He mobilized the power of the Dragon Vein Sage Art Chakra and the Sage Art of Mount Myōboku to fully condense a new barrier.
"withdraw!"
A soft shout echoed throughout Mount Myoboku.
at the same time.
The immense power that weighed on the hearts of all living beings in the human world, as if it were about to crush the heavens and the earth, vanished without a trace in an instant!
It was as if it had never existed, leaving only an empty sky, eerily calm.
The ninjas instantly felt a great weight lifted off their shoulders, and their tense muscles slowly relaxed.
But everyone remained frozen in place, staring at the sky with awe and shock, their minds unable to calm down for a long time.
Uchiha
Elder Uchiha steadied himself and said in a deep voice to Uchiha Sa beside him, "Clan leader, that power... has vanished..."
"I know."
Uchiha Sa stared blankly at the cloudless sky, her red Sharingan slightly dazed.
Although that terrifying power had dissipated, the shock and helplessness in my heart surged like a tide, lingering for a long time.
"There really are things in this world that see us as ants..."
She murmured to herself, her voice as soft as a wisp of smoke in the wind.
She had always considered herself a top ninja in the ninja world, leading the Uchiha clan and dominating the battlefield. But in the face of that power just now, she truly understood that she and her clan were nothing more than dust that could be destroyed with a flick of the finger.
------
This shock and profound reflection are by no means unique to the Uchiha clan.
Senju, Hyuga, Uzumaki, Sarutobi, Kaguya... all the major ninja clans in the ninja world, as well as commoners, samurai, and daimyo, were plunged into a long period of astonishment and silence after their power dissipated.
Fear, awe, confusion, deep thought... all sorts of emotions spread among people.
That brief, overwhelming power, like a heavy hammer blow, shattered all living beings' understanding of the "strong," making everyone understand one thing—
There are always people more capable than you, and there are always higher realms beyond the ninja world. Beyond the ninja world, there exist beings far beyond their imagination.
This sudden celestial phenomenon stirred up a massive wave throughout the ninja world, becoming an unforgettable and shocking memory for all living beings.

Inside the cave at Fallen Fox Cliff, Thousand-Handed Crane breathed a long sigh of relief, patted his chest, and said to Black Zetsu, "Phew, Black Zetsu, that power has finally disappeared..."
Black Zetsu nodded silently, having already made his judgment: it must have been a sudden change at Mount Myōboku that caused the barrier to break, and the power of the Great Sage was accidentally leaked into the mortal realm; it was definitely not intentional.
It composed itself, ceasing to dwell on the events of Mount Myōboku, and immediately reminded Thousand-Armed Tsuru in a deep voice: "Alright, Tsuru, what is meant to be will be. This matter has nothing to do with us."
"You should hurry up and study the sword techniques on this stone wall. Learn them as soon as possible and leave this place. It is not safe to stay here for long."

A day and a night passed quietly.
The aftershocks of that earth-shattering power in the human world completely dissipated, and the beings of the ninja world gradually recovered from the extreme shock, returning to their original paths.
Do what you're supposed to do, fight what you're supposed to fight.
Inside the cave at Falling Fox Cliff
Senju Crane slowly finished her stance and stood up, stretching her muscles and bones. Her face was full of satisfaction, and the sharp aura of her swordsmanship still lingered on her fingertips.
"Phew! I've finally finished learning. This swordsmanship is truly exquisite, each move ruthless yet subtly adaptable. No wonder it's a masterpiece created by Uchiha Kitsune!"
Looking at the marks on the stone wall, Senju Tsuru sighed in admiration.
The black-clad creature in his palm nodded slightly, its dark eyebrows lifting slightly, and then it ordered, "Completely grind away the knife marks on this stone wall, so that no one else will come here to study it in the future."
Senju Tsuru's expression tightened instantly, and she looked troubled. She quickly waved her hand, her tone hesitant: "Black Zetsu Sage, isn't this... a bit inappropriate?"
"The Uchiha Kitsune left this sword technique behind and never destroyed it, and the Hatake clan chief did not erase it after receiving the inheritance. Both of these predecessors were so mindful of their heritage and had such noble character. If I were to destroy it with my own hands, wouldn't I appear too narrow-minded and selfish?"
"ha?"
Upon hearing this, Black Zetsu clicked his tongue softly and patiently advised, "Hey, it's alright, there's no need to care about these empty titles."
"Then why don't you think about it the other way around?"
