Chapter 086.2: The Sage Art That Counters the Expansive Truth-Seeking Ball!

[Obito Uchiha: Maybe it's a Sage Art similar to Kamui! But if that's all there is to it, it's not enough to rank second on the Ninjutsu Ranking, right?]

[Madara Uchiha: It can't be that simple. Let's keep watching to find out!]

Next, Beerus used the Sage Art—Golden Light Wave!

Not only can the Fox Spirit Sisters use the Sage Art Golden Light Wave, but Beerus can too, and its power is still very strong.

Buzz!!!

The golden light wave swept across Ye Tian, obliterating the mountain behind him, but still not injuring Ye Tian in the slightest.

"Master, what is this technique? I didn't sense any spatial fluctuations, so your body shouldn't be hiding in another space. Why can't I hit you?" Beerus asked curiously.

"Keep attacking and you'll find out!"

Ye Tian commanded.

"Yes!"

Beerus then unleashed his most powerful Sage Art—Destruction!

"Sage Art—Destruction!"

Beerus pushed his right hand forward, directing the energy towards Ye Tian.

However, nothing happened!

[Kakashi: Did Beerus' Sage Art Destruction get nullified?]

[Might Guy: The Destruction Sage Art is terrifying. It harnesses the power of the rules, capable of disintegrating an entire mountain into dust and turning it into nothingness. Yet it can't harm Ye Tian. I'm incredibly curious about Ye Tian's Sage Art!]

[Hashirama Senju: Could it be an invincible technique?]

[Tobirama Senju: It doesn't seem like it!]

After multiple failed attempts to harm Ye Tian, Beerus started to doubt whether it was a spatial technique, thinking that perhaps the spatial aura was too well hidden for him to detect.

"Then let's try shattering the space!"

So, Beerus summoned all the power of his God of Destruction form, and a divine glow gradually appeared on his body.

Then, his hands emitted a black light, and with a powerful punch, Beerus delivered a blow that shattered the space itself using the pure destructive power of his God of Destruction form and Chakra.

Boom!!!

The space around Ye Tian shattered like glass, but Ye Tian stood in the midst of the fractured space, seemingly unaffected.

"Master, I can't hurt you, but can you attack in this state?" Beerus asked curiously.

"Yes, and even when I attack, you still won't be able to hit me!"

As he spoke, Ye Tian gently slapped Beerus.

Beerus reacted quickly, punching back at Ye Tian.

However, Ye Tian's palm sent Beerus flying, while Beerus' punch still couldn't land on Ye Tian.

[Fourth Hokage: I can confirm this is not Kamui. I've experienced Obito's Kamui before. When Obito attacks, his body cannot phase through, and when he's in his phased state, he can't attack. But Ye Tian's Sage Art allows him to attack others while remaining untouchable.]

[Kakashi: It's definitely not Kamui. Obito's Kamui only hides the body in Kamui's dimension, but Beerus' last attack shattered the space, yet still couldn't harm Ye Tian. This is clearly not a spatial technique!]

[Naruto Uzumaki: Isn't this invincible then?]

[Hashirama Senju: For now, we don't know how to counter it, but we could just wait for the technique's duration to end.]

"Master, stop! My body can't take your attacks anymore!"

Beerus conceded.

"I don't need to exert much force, but from what I can see, this technique is quite impressive!"

Ye Tian said.

At this point, the screen faded out.

Soon, an introduction to the technique appeared.

[Second Place in the Ninjutsu Rankings: Sage Art - Past Self, User: Ye Tian. This is a time-based sage art. Any attack that damages the body will target the body in the past, causing no harm to the current body. However, the current body can attack the enemy without being affected by this technique. The duration is ten minutes!]

[Hashirama Senju: So it's a technique involving time!]

[Naruto Uzumaki: My head hurts, I don't get it!]

[Sakura Haruno: It means that when the enemy attacks you, they're actually attacking you from ten minutes or even a day ago. Since past events are already set in stone, they can't affect the present, so attacking the past has no impact on you now, which means you won't be harmed!]

[Naruto Uzumaki: I think I get it now!]

[Madara Uchiha: This technique is unbeatable. A ten-minute period of invincibility—if you encounter it, just run. Wait until the ten minutes pass, otherwise, we can't hit him, but he can hit us. Even someone stronger than him can't defeat him!]

[Fourth Raikage: Unless someone far stronger than Ye Tian can break this Past Self technique with pure power!]

"Do you really think you could escape if you met my master? My master's speed is unbeatable, and he also masters space techniques. No matter who encounters him, they will die! My master is the true invincible existence!"

Beerus said in admiration.

Originally, he thought his master's Past Self was the strongest sage art, but now it seems his master has come up with yet another sage art!

Kaguya Ōtsutsuki looked at Ye Tian's Past Self sage art with a level of dread that bordered on fear.

"I can't break this technique!"

Kaguya thought to herself.

If she couldn't break it, that meant she couldn't harm Ye Tian, but Ye Tian could harm her.

Ye Tian had so many methods, ten minutes would be enough to kill her!

"Such a terrifying guy, hiding so deep, so mysterious and low-key. If it were me, I would've already ruled the entire ninja world!" Kaguya thought to herself.

"Wow, Master, this technique is terrifying!!!"

Garaga was completely stunned.

He realized he still knew too little about his master. If it weren't for the Golden List livestream, he wouldn't have known his master possessed such a sage art!

He had to admit, his master's strength was countless times more terrifying than his current self, and his master could easily crush him.

Therefore, even though he had become the Ruby Dragon, he felt no pride or disrespect.

Of course, under the Contract Eye, it was impossible for him to have any disrespectful thoughts.

Moreover, Honghong, Yaya, Rongrong, and Kumoko also found Ye Tian's technique quite shocking. Although they knew their master possessed this technique, they had never seen its power in action.

After all, Ye Tian rarely took action; even when he created a technique, he would let Beerus or someone else test it, and then hardly used it himself, so they never had the chance to witness it.

"Master, this technique of yours is simply terrifying!" Kumoko praised.

"This technique is not bad, but it consumes a lot of energy. I can't keep it up for long. Moreover, if the enemy has the power to break the rules of time, this technique would no longer be fearsome!"

Ye Tian said.

In a place like the ninja world, this sage art was nearly invincible, but if he went to the Immortal Realm or other top-tier worlds where many people mastered the rules, there would naturally be many who could break this technique.

By then, this technique would only be considered good, but not invincible!

"Master, you're just too modest!"

Honghong hugged Ye Tian's arm, smiling as she spoke.

"Yes, Master is just too modest. Clearly invincible, yet still so low-key!"

Kumoko also came over, hugging his other arm.

Ye Tian smiled slightly, enjoying this moment.

Meanwhile, in the livestream, everyone was still in a state of continuous shock.

At the same time, they were curious about what could surpass the Past Self sage art to take first place in the Ninjutsu Rankings.

A while later, the first place in the Ninjutsu Rankings was about to be announced.

The screen in the livestream showed a vast land, with two figures on it.

One was Ye Tian, the other was Kumoko, with Honghong and Yaya beside him.

"Wow, Master, this is when we helped you test the Five-Colored Divine Light!" Kumoko said.

"Yes, it was then! Master, it was during that time you demonstrated the power of the Five-Colored Divine Light, and the Golden List captured this moment!" Honghong said.

"But this part of the footage..."

Kumoko felt a bit shy.

The other two women were also a bit embarrassed, hoping the screen wouldn't show that part; otherwise, it would be too awkward!

"What are you shy about? It's not like it's something indecent!"

Ye Tian said, speechless.

Kumoko, Honghong, and Yaya just blushed and stayed quiet.

At this moment, the footage started playing.
