Chapter 127: Kage Level List Released, Three Leaderboards!

Chapter 127: Kage Level List Released, Three Leaderboards!

As time passed, Beerus and the others finally arrived at the thunder zone. However, they were unable to enter the golden lightning area and could only train in the purple lightning zone.

At this moment, the ninjas of various major factions were diligently training. After all, these factions had received great rewards, so many ninjas focused on their cultivation. During this period, the number of missions in the ninja world had decreased significantly, with many tasks even being assigned to lower-ranking ninjas.

Akatsuki Headquarters

The members of the Akatsuki began to return one by one, and they finally started the process of extracting the Demonic Spring.

"Let's begin!" Uchiha Obito ordered.

"Alright!" Kisame Hoshigaki and the others nodded before collectively extracting the Demonic Spring.

Boom!

A massive Demonic Spring was drawn out and landed in an empty space within their base. Instantly, a dark aura spread everywhere.

"The Demonic Spring has been extracted!" Uchiha Obito exclaimed excitedly. He was the first to enter the spring, and in an instant, its energy began flooding into his body.

Although only half of his body was his own, it did not prevent the tempering and enhancement of his physical body. Kisame and the others also entered the Demonic Spring, its power continuously refining and transforming their bodies.

"What incredible effects!" Kisame exclaimed with excitement. Hidan, too, was thrilled. His combat strength was relatively weak, and without his curse techniques and immortality, he wouldn't have qualified as a Kage Level ninja. But now, by using the Demonic Spring to enhance his physique and strength, he could potentially become even more terrifying.

The Akatsuki members all immersed themselves in the spring, increasing their power. Even Black Zetsu and White Zetsu, who were not entirely human, could use the spring to boost their strength. As a result, they stayed within the base during this period, focused on cultivation and growing stronger.

The ninja world remained quite peaceful during this time.

Half a year passed.

Path of Inquiry, Golden Lightning Zone

Ye Tian continued his training in the golden lightning, and under its tempering, his body, refined into the Glazed Golden Body, had once again broken through to another level.

Boom!

A terrifying pressure radiated from Ye Tian's body, unleashing an awe-inspiring aura.

"My strength has grown once more. Just this improvement alone makes the reward worthwhile!" Ye Tian muttered. He stood up, preparing to move forward. Since the golden lightning could no longer help him much, continuing to temper his body for a few more decades might bring some gains, but it was unnecessary at this point.

Thus, he crossed the golden lightning zone and proceeded onward.

Buzz!

Suddenly, Ye Tian's soul felt an immense pressure. This force didn't target his body but directly attacked the strength of his soul. If one's soul wasn't strong enough, it could shatter upon entering this area.

"Without a soul at the Immortal Path level, you can't enter here!" Ye Tian mused. However, this pressure served as a form of tempering. If he stayed in this area long enough, his soul strength would gradually compress and strengthen.

Soul strength is notoriously hard to improve. Even though Ye Tian had developed soul techniques, under the rules of the ninja world, it was difficult to enhance his soul's strength quickly. But now, in the Path of Inquiry, it had become much easier.

"Let's continue!" Ye Tian ventured deeper into the path, where the soul suppression grew even stronger. As he progressed, hallucinations started to appear, showing just how intense the pressure was.

Endure! Endure! Endure!

Ye Tian silently recited the Supreme Consciousness Scripture, stabilizing his soul. This sutra, which he had deduced using his system, could not only strengthen his soul but also stabilize his mental state and protect him from illusions.

Months passed, and Ye Tian advanced another thousand meters. During this time, his soul strength had increased by a significant margin, almost as if he had consumed a large amount of soul-enhancing treasures.

Finally, Ye Tian crossed this section of the path. His soul was no longer suppressed, and he arrived at the final stretch of the Path of Inquiry. Here, he saw strange ripples that contained unfathomable power, which even made him feel a deep sense of dread.

"This is the power of rules!" Ye Tian said in surprise. The Path of Inquiry had made these rules visible, and they now stood in his way.

At this moment, he had entered the domain of the power rules, and the endless pressure from these rules threatened to crush his body. However, with his Sage Art: Past Self, Ye Tian was able to withstand the rule's pressure. Without this, it would have been impossible to resist.

"At the very least, only Sages or Deities far beyond my current level could break through this!" Ye Tian muttered. But then, a thought occurred to him: if he could comprehend these rules, wouldn't he be able to pass through?

The rules were right in front of him, and he could take his time to understand them. For others, comprehending these rules might take countless years, but Ye Tian had his deduction system. With these rules laid out before him, he could rely on the system to deduce and comprehend them step by step.

"If I can master these rules, I might break through the limitations of the Immortal Path level and enter another realm!" Ye Tian whispered to himself. Of course, that breakthrough would take time. Even if he mastered the rules now, it would only give him the potential to reach the next stage.

"Let's comprehend them!" Ye Tian began to focus on understanding the rules. With the help of his deduction system, the manifested rules seemed to have no secrets from him.

A few days later, Ye Tian successfully mastered the power rule. With this rule under his control, he could easily exert ten times his usual strength. Of course, he could continue to improve his understanding of the power rule, but for now, he wasn't in a hurry.

He moved forward and arrived in the domain of the fire rule. Within just a few days, he had successfully comprehended the fire rule as well. Afterward, he entered the domain of the wind rule.

And so, Ye Tian continued to comprehend one rule after another, advancing further along the Path of Inquiry.

Finally, Ye Tian reached the end of the path, entering the domain of the space rule. It took him ten full days to comprehend this rule. With space under his control, he no longer needed to use space techniques; he could now freely traverse space and instantly arrive anywhere in the ninja world.

Additionally, with a single thought, Ye Tian could compress the space around his enemies, crushing the space they occupied and annihilating them instantly. Furthermore, he could create blades of space rule that could instantly kill opponents. Unless they had a way to defend against rules, they wouldn't be able to withstand the space blade.

"Only one rule remains!" Ye Tian stepped into the domain of the time rule and began comprehending it. This time, it took him thirteen days before he finally understood the time rule.

Now, even without the Tears of Time and Space or other time-related techniques, Ye Tian could easily manipulate time. With the mastery of time, nothing in this area could stop him.

Ye Tian crossed over effortlessly, reaching the end of the Path of Inquiry.

"There must be great rewards for making it this far. I wonder what they will be?" Ye Tian wondered aloud.

Buzz!

A ball of light surged into Ye Tian's body, and in the next moment, the numerous rules within him began to surface, merging under the light's influence. Merging rules was exceedingly difficult, something Ye Tian couldn't do on his own for now.

But at this moment, under the influence of the radiant light, the rules began to merge.

"Chaotic Aura!"

Ye Tian immediately knew its name and purpose. Chaotic Aura could fuse rules together to form Chaos Rules, which were of immense value.

Time slowly passed, and the rules around Ye Tian gradually fused into Chaos Rules. His body began to develop Chaos Rule patterns, and his Golden Glazed Body started to transform under the influence of the Chaos Rules.

After a long while, his Golden Glazed Body was perfected.

Not only that, but the power of his Immortal Path within him surged to a terrifying level, and the strength of his soul increased significantly.

At this moment, Ye Tian had undergone a complete transformation and enhancement.

"Immortal Path Peak!" Ye Tian realized. He had reached the pinnacle of his current realm, though he wasn't sure what the next realm would be. It seemed that he wouldn't be able to advance again in the short term.

In any case, he had gained a lot this time. Furthermore, by mastering the Chaos Rules, he could easily comprehend other rules in the future. The Chaos Rules served as a comprehensive framework, governing all other rules.

It was this very birth of the Chaos Rules that caused Ye Tian's overall strength to soar.

At this point, the Path of Inquiry no longer held much value for him. At best, it could slightly enhance his mastery of various rules, and that was about it.

In the following days, Ye Tian continued to cultivate on the Path of Inquiry, focusing on enhancing the power of the rules.

Unknowingly, the time for the next list announcement had arrived.

On this day, countless ninjas entered the Golden List Livestream Room.
