Chapter 192: Stop! Stop now! I’m going to be sucked dry!!!
Mt. Miaomu.
The giant toad immortal in the temple was fidgeting.
The previous dream made him feel sweaty. He had had many prophetic dreams over the years.
But the only time he felt palpitations like this was the time with the Son of Prophecy.
The dream in which the Son of Prophecy disappeared really scared him!
This dream seemed to have some special connection with that one, but even the Big Toad Immortal himself couldn't tell what it was.
One can only hope that Fukasaku Shima doesn't provoke him when he greets the other party.
In the dream, that person did something quite terrible!
Just as the Great Toad Immortal was thinking this, a sudden voice startled him and he almost fell off the stone seat.
"Great Toad Immortal, we have brought the guests here."
Fukasaku Toad and Shima Toad jumped into the temple side by side. When they saw Namikaze Mirai behind them, the big toad swallowed and his voice trembled a little.
"How did you get here?"
I just asked you to welcome the guests, I didn't ask you to bring them here!
The horrifying scene in his dream emerged in his mind, and the Toad Immortal was in tears.
"Great Toad Immortal, the guest wants to learn immortal arts. We are not qualified to decide. We can only ask you to make the decision."
Fukasaku Toad was confused by the appearance of the Great Toad Sage.
As Minato's younger brother and a close friend of Jiraiya, Namikaze Mirai is naturally close to Mount Myoboku.
Why does the giant toad immortal seem to be very afraid of him?
"Practicing immortal arts?"
The big toad immortal was startled.
Recalling the scene prophesied in the dream, he showed some enlightenment.
In order to achieve the scene in the dream, magic must be used as a prerequisite. In this way, the magic of Myoboku Mountain is the puzzle piece to achieve that scene.
The big toad immortal fell into deep thought.
By rejecting Namikaze's request to learn fairy arts in the future, perhaps we can prevent that scene from happening.
But if that were true, it might anger him, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Moreover, since Namikaze Mirai has already arrived at Myoboku Mountain, it means that the scene in the predicted dream is bound to happen.
His obstruction may not be effective.
Destiny is an unpredictable existence.
Because of his interference, even more unimaginable changes may occur.
Naruto, holding the finger of Namikaze Mirai, looked up and down at the deep thinking Toad Sage with great curiosity.
An old toad as big as a calf, with a wrinkled body, sat upright on a rock seat, wearing a bachelor's hat, with a frown on his brow and a deep look on his face.
This strange scene surprised Naruto.
"Uncle, who is this big toad?"
Unlike in the original work, Naruto during this period has never been to Mount Myoboku, nor has he seen the Giant Toad Sage.
"An old toad who can prophesy."
Namikaze Mirai thought about it and said.
Fukasaku Toad and Shima Toad looked at each other awkwardly.
Namikaze Mirai and Naruto's discussion about the Great Toad Sage made them unhappy, but the other party was a guest and someone they could not afford to offend.
It’s not right to speak out loud, and it’s not right to remain silent.
Just when they were at a loss, the big toad immortal who had been in deep thought finally spoke.
"Fukasaku Shima, when you take guests to learn fairy arts, you must meet their conditions."
"Yes."
"Two guests, please follow me!"
Fukasaku Gama leads Namikaze Mirai out of the temple.
After they left, Shima Toad jumped in front of the Great Toad Immortal and said, "Great Toad Immortal, are you too cautious with them?"
Shima Toad was confused, but the usually calm and gentle Toad Sage suddenly seemed like a different person today.
"In my prophecy, a very terrifying scene appeared." The Great Toad Immortal said in a horrifying tone, "Shijian, did you notice the boy next to that man?"
"That boy? You mean the blond boy?"
"Yes." The Great Toad Immortal looked outside the temple with a deep gaze, "If I'm not mistaken, he is the son of prophecy. Because of that man, fate has been tampered with."
Tampering with fate???
It was like a thunderbolt exploding in Shijian's mind, shocking him to the point of freezing.
If what the Great Toad Immortal said is true, how terrifying is that man who tampered with the fate of the child of destiny?
Just thinking about this kind of thing makes my hair stand on end.
"Although I don't know how he did it, it seems that this is the only possibility now."
A sigh appeared in the old and turbid eyes of the Great Toad Immortal.
The reincarnation of Ashura.
That's right, that boy is the reincarnation of Ashura Chakra.
He lived in the same era as the Sage of Six Paths and witnessed Kaguya being sealed. He knew the secret between Ashura and Indra very well.
As the reincarnation of Ashura, Naruto should have undergone a subtle transformation under the influence of Ashura's chakra.
But for some reason, this correction was sealed by a strange force.
The Great Toad Sage cannot see through that kind of power, but one thing is certain, it must be related to Namikaze Mirai!
"I understand, Great Toad Immortal."
After listening to the explanation of the Great Toad Immortal, Shima Toad also understood the seriousness of the matter.
In short, remember one thing: don’t provoke Namikaze Mirai.
While the two were talking in the temple, Fukasaku Gama had already led Namikaze Mirai and the others to the place where they practiced fairy arts.
"We're here. This is the place to practice immortal arts."
"here?"
Naruto stared at the pool of water in front of him with wide eyes in disbelief.
The gray-brown toad sculpture spit out sticky oil, and the oil pool, which was only a few meters in size, was surrounded by strange-looking toad sculptures.
No matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like the most important place in the holy land?
Fukasaku Toad took a breath and explained, "The oil here is called Toad Oil. Apply a little on your body to increase the probability of sensing the power of nature."
"But you must be careful. If you can't control the natural power you absorb, you will lose control and turn into the stone statues around you."
"Huh, huh, huh!" Naruto's eyes widened, "You mean, these stone statues around here are all people..."
"Well, this is also what I want to remind you. Don't underestimate the difficulty of practicing immortal arts. Over a long period of time, there are only a handful of people who have mastered immortal arts, and the vast majority have become sculptures around them."
Fukasaku Gama looked at Namikaze Mirai meaningfully.
He was clear about Namikaze's future strength. The strong have their own pride and are full of confidence in themselves.
But to practice immortal arts, strength alone is useless.
If one cannot control the natural forces in the body, they will go out of control and turn into a toad sculpture.
Namikaze Mirai seemed not to notice what he said.
"let's start."
Fukasaku Toad shook his head secretly. He had already reminded Namikaze Mirai, but whether Namikaze Mirai listened or not was his own business.
"Please apply the toad oil on your body. Next, I will show you how to absorb the power of nature."
A few minutes later.
Namikaze Mirai was sitting cross-legged on a wooden board. The clouds were rising around him and there were thin, sharp stone spikes below him. If he moved even a little, his center of gravity would shift and he would fall down.
"Toad, do you think my uncle can succeed in cultivation?"
Looking up at Namikaze Mirai standing on the stone spikes towering into the sky, Naruto swallowed and asked nervously.
"My name is Fukasaku Sennin, you can just call me Sennin." Fukasaku rolled his eyes. Isn't the son of Minato too disrespectful?
"Also, to answer your question, if your uncle has excellent aptitude in immortal arts, he should be able to sense the first trace of natural power within three days."
"Three days? So long?"
"Three days has gone by very quickly."
Shen Zuo Toad was speechless for a while. Little ghost, do you think it is easy to practice immortal arts?
Historically, practitioners who entered Myoboku Mountain were able to sense the power of nature within three days, which was considered to be extremely talented.
He has predicted the future of Namikaze with the most ideal conditions.
Considering Minato's not-so-excellent talent in fairy arts, Namikaze's talent in fairy arts in the future should not be much higher.
When Minato was practicing immortal arts, it took him ten full days to sense the power of nature.
It would be good if Namikaze can surpass this result in the future.
Just as they were discussing, Fukasaku Toad seemed to sense something, his expression suddenly froze, as if he had seen a ghost, and he stared at Namikaze Mirai in the sky with wide eyes.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"How long has it been?"
Naruto looked at him in surprise.
"What's impossible?"
Fukasaku Toad swallowed his saliva, and his voice trembled a little.
"It's been less than three minutes, and your uncle has already sensed the power of nature!"
Naruto had a blank expression on his face.
"Oh, this kind of thing, I thought it was something else."
"Aren't you shocked? Your uncle broke the fastest record for practicing immortal arts in Myoboku Mountain!"
"No big deal, it's just a routine operation for me!"
Naruto waved his hands, as if sprinkling some water.
Fukasaku Toad: ...
As the two were talking, the calm natural forces in the sky suddenly surged, as if a storm was gathering, and Bofeng Weilai, who was sitting in the middle, was the center of the storm!
The toad Fukasaku was petrified on the spot.
"What's wrong with you?"
Naruto looked at him in surprise.
"Your uncle... is madly absorbing the power of nature."
"Oh, what's the fuss about it, isn't it normal that my uncle is so powerful?"
“The key is…” Fukasaku was about to cry, “If he continues to suck, all the natural power of Myoboku Mountain will be sucked away!”
Absorbing the natural power of Myoboku Mountain?
Naruto puffed out his chest with pride.
"As expected of my uncle."
On the other side, the Big Toad Immortal and Shima Toad in the temple also sensed the natural power rolling in the outside world and looked out in surprise.
"What happened? Why did the forces of nature suddenly gather in one place?"
That direction is...
The big toad immortal was shocked.
"Oh no! This is the location of the Toad Oil. That person must be absorbing the power of nature!"
Absorb the power of nature?
Shima Toad's face was filled with shock.
The risk of absorbing natural forces is extremely high, and it takes a long time to practice. How long has it been since Namikaze Mirai arrived, and he has mastered the method of practicing natural forces?
This absorption rate is too terrifying!
Even if it were me and the child’s father, we wouldn’t be able to catch up to one-tenth of it!
"Quick! Go and see what's going on!"
"Understood, Great Toad Immortal."
……
In the Toad Oil Pond, there was Bofeng Weilai sitting cross-legged on the stone spike. A terrifying whirlpool storm was surging around him. From a distance, it looked like a huge dark cloud covering the sky.
The toads in Mount Myōboku all raised their heads and looked at the scene in the distance in shock.
"what happens?"
"I don't know!"
“Is this terrifying speed of absorbing natural forces the work of the two immortals, Fukasaku and Shima? No, even they can’t do such a thing!”
A sense of crisis surged over the hearts of these toads.
Living in Myoboku Mountain, they are ignorant of the world and have never experienced struggle, and for the first time they feel the crisis of death.
If all the power of nature is absorbed by him, how can they survive?
The look on Fukasaku Sennin's face as he gazed up at Namikaze's future was indescribable, and it was uglier than death.
"Hurry up and ask your uncle to stop sucking. We can't let him suck it anymore. Myoboku Mountain will be sucked dry by him!"
Sennin Fukasaku can only place his hopes on Naruto.
I hope he can dissuade Namikaze from doing this in the future.
Otherwise, a huge disaster will befall Myoboku Mountain!
"Okay, I'll give it a try."
Naruto pouted.
Isn’t it just absorbing a little bit of natural power?
What's all the fuss about?
Cheapskate!
"uncle……"
As soon as he uttered a word, the vortex of natural force condensed in the sky suddenly stagnated, the terrifying storm gradually subsided, and the movement of absorbing natural force subsided.
"Uncle stopped?"
Naruto was surprised.
Only then did Fukasaku Toad heave a sigh of relief.
The stone hanging on his chest fell down. It was a close call. If it had continued to be sucked in, Myoboku Mountain might have become the first holy place to have its natural forces sucked dry.
Namikaze Mirai in the air opened his eyes, and a dark-colored immortal face appeared on his face. Fukasaku on the ground stared at his face with his pupils slightly shrunken.
"S-Sage mode?"
Absolutely right!
Namikaze Mirai's current state is definitely in Sage Mode without a doubt!
And it’s the most perfect facial mask pattern!
He only taught the method of absorbing the power of nature, and never mentioned the method of cultivating immortal arts.
Namikaze's future was something he realized entirely on his own???
"abnormal!"
Fukasaku Toad uttered a word.
"What do you say?"
Naruto turned to look at him.
"I said your uncle is a pervert! A huge pervert!"
Shen Zuo Toad was indignant.
How could anyone be so perverted?
There has to be a limit to being strong, right?
Is this kind of thing really something humans can do?
In the distance, Shima Toad came jumping over and asked nervously.
"Dad, what happened here? So much natural power suddenly gathered!"
Fukasaku Toad didn't look at him, but still raised his head and looked up at Namikaze Mirai in the sky.
Shima Gama followed the direction Fukasaku Gama was looking, and when he saw the facial expression on Namikaze Mirai's face, he showed the same expression as Fukasaku, as if he had seen a ghost, and shouted in horror.
"Immortal's facial makeup? Has he mastered the art of immortality?"
How long has it been?
How did Namikaze Mirai do it? It's still the most perfect fairy face!
Namikaze Mirai fell from the sky and landed in front of the Fukasaku Shima toads, and thanked the two clams.
"Thank you very much. I have got what I wanted. It's time to go to the Dragon Cave and the Wet Bone Forest."
The two Toad Immortals were shocked again!
He spoke while being shocked.
"You're going to other holy places?!"
