...
Strong!
Extremely strong!
The Sage of Six Paths is definitely the strongest person Yamanaka Kei has ever seen!
Even though the bloodline entry has a 'Fragment' attached to it, this guy is clearly stronger than Kaguya Otsutsuki, whose panel is also very luxurious, but whose other aspects are slightly thin!
Controlling the power of the Sage of Six Paths Yin and Yang Reincarnation, perfectly controlling the power of Sage Arts, wielding the power of the Pure Land Reincarnation...
After thousands of years of accumulation, he has completely mastered his abilities!
Hagoromo Otsutsuki's strength is completely incomparable to Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, who has eked out a living for thousands of years and is immersed in the powerful bloodline of the Ōtsutsuki Clan!
Moreover...
The three entries, [Thousand Accumulations Enlightenment], [Asceticism United with the Dao], and [Heavenly Mind], almost represent that the Sage of Six Paths has embarked on a path different from most Ōtsutsuki, and also completely different from him!
"Greetings, Sage of Six Paths, Senior."
Yamanaka Kei stood in front of Tsunade and Uchiha Hikaru, his gaze repeatedly scanning Hagoromo Otsutsuki's entry interface.
Although the other party doesn't seem to have the kind of entry that screams 'villain,' and even has a green [Benevolent Heart] and a white [Attachment] attached to the end of the entry.
But a person with great power, possessing an entry like [Heavenly Mind], may not be a good thing for ordinary people!
The Tao Te Ching says: Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and treat all things as straw dogs.
This means that heaven and earth treat all things equally, not being particularly good to anyone, nor particularly bad to anyone, and everything develops according to nature.
Possessing this entry.
Probably in Hagoromo Otsutsuki's eyes.
The humans of the Ninja World are no different from other living beings in his eyes!
Looking at people is the same as looking at pigs and dogs.
Who would dare to relax their vigilance!
"You don't need to be so wary of this old man, we are not enemies."
Hagoromo Otsutsuki didn't mind Yamanaka Kei's defense, and always had a gentle smile on his slightly aged face.
A human child, being able to walk a path of transcendence completely different from the Ōtsutsuki Clan in just twenty years.
It's the first time he's seen it in his thousands of years!
Moreover, the other party's actions have inadvertently helped him complete the final step!
"...Senior, what have you been doing in the Pure Land all these years?"
Yamanaka Kei was silent for a moment, but decided to ask directly. When facing a millennium-old fox, beating around the bush would only trap himself!
Before fighting Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, he had observed the Pure Land for a long time.
But Hagoromo Otsutsuki had never taken any action.
It was as if...
He no longer cared about what happened to the Pure Land!
Now that the other party had suddenly appeared, he couldn't continue to let the Sage of Six Paths control the Pure Land without clarifying some issues.
After all, the world's operation cannot be separated from the Pure Land, and he didn't want the little planet to be drained one day!
Moreover, he wouldn't allow others to snore beside his bed.
With such a strong person with unknown intentions lurking in the dark, no one would feel at ease!
"Observation, comprehension, transcendence!"
Hagoromo Otsutsuki was not surprised that Yamanaka Kei would ask such a question.
With a smile on his lips, he slowly began to recount his millennium of comprehension.
Back then, after he and his younger brother Hagoromo Otsutsuki sealed their mother together, they had been traveling throughout the Ninja World.
Repairing the damage caused to the planet by the great battle with their mother.
By chance, while walking in the Ninja World, he encountered a corpse left behind by the Ōtsutsuki Clan!
The body of Ōtsutsuki Shibai, who was known as the Ōtsutsuki God!
Even though he was already dead.
But that immortal and powerful body, even if it only released a little power, still made him feel a shock from the bottom of his heart!
By comprehending and studying the other party's power, he gradually began to realize that the other party was not dead, but had transcended life and death, escaped the shackles of the flesh, and left this world, crossing dimensions!
The Six Paths was not the end of power, and above it, there was an even higher realm that was unimaginable to ordinary people!
Hagoromo Otsutsuki admitted that he was not a saint without desires, and he also wanted to try to pursue such a realm.
But if he only cared about his own transcendence, using planets as pastures, planting God Trees to absorb the energy of the planets, and cutting off the living paths of other living beings, what would be the difference between such behavior and his mother's?
Long-term travel in the Ninja World had long made him clearly aware.
Every independent individual life has its own thoughts and feelings.
All life should be respected!
After denying the Ōtsutsuki Clan's method of transcendence, he began to travel again, searching for other methods.
Ninshu was one of his attempts!
Ōtsutsuki Shibai's method of the soul leaving the body proved that it did not rely on physical strength to transcend.
The massive amount of Chakra fruit it devoured, what truly helped it complete the final step, was the power of the soul!
And the superficial manifestation of the power of the soul is the power of the heart.
Connecting the hearts of everyone in the entire world, allowing this power to complete a qualitative change through quantitative change, the world would usher in permanent peace.
And he could also borrow this power to refine his own soul!
Helping himself complete sublimation and transformation!
Unfortunately, he failed!
The experiences of Asura and Indra clearly told him that this path might not be feasible at all!
Helpless, he could only choose the final path.
Directly choosing to abandon his physical body and enter the Pure Land, observing and comprehending the most essential state of all souls, feeling the power of their hearts, in the hope that constant effort would achieve success, taking that final step!
Fortunately.
In this process, he used his own Sage of Six Paths Yin and Yang Reincarnation power, borrowing the power of the Pure Land, to see the essence of the world's operation!
The constantly improving power of the heart also allowed his soul power to continue to grow!
It's just that...
The failed Ancestor of Ninshu from earlier years, for some reason, became a thorn in his heart.
"With Attachment in the heart, the power of the heart cannot reach the purest state, and the power of the soul naturally cannot take the final step, but now, you have helped me fulfill my last wish."
Hagoromo Otsutsuki had a relieved smile on his lips.
He had once borrowed Ōtsutsuki Shibai's body to activate the ultimate eye technique Omnidirectional, glimpsing a trace of the future.
He thought that the opportunity to help him complete the final step would be in a few decades.
Unexpectedly, due to a sudden variable.
He would usher in the final transformation decades in advance!
"...Senior, aren't you going to give some reward?"
Countless thoughts flashed through Yamanaka Kei's mind, carefully analyzing all the words Hagoromo Otsutsuki had just said!
Combined with the information in the original plot.
He could probably judge that most of what the other party said was true!
But to say that everything was true...
At least Yamanaka Kei would never believe that the other party froze the operation of the Pure Land just to intuitively feel the power of other people's hearts!
