Uchiha Ling decided to check on Lou Lan's Dragon Vein, so she directly located the Flying Thunder God Kunai on Shisui's body and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to disappear in front of An Lushan and Pakura, leaving a few Wood Clones to watch An Lushan and prevent him from breaking free.
Shisui was quietly watching the Lou Lan Queen arrive at the Dragon Vein spring, preparing to seal it, somewhat worried about Uchiha Ling's safety, but unfortunately, he couldn't help much.
The next moment, Uchiha Ling suddenly appeared beside him, startling Shisui and several people nearby. They relaxed only when they saw it was Uchiha Ling.
"Hmm, your vigilance is good. Even if the enemy has the Flying Thunder God Technique, they can't easily deal with you. I'm very satisfied."
Uchiha Ling patted Shisui's shoulder and looked at the distant stone pillar. At this moment, Sara was chanting a spell, intending to close the Dragon Vein's transportation to Lou Lan.
Uchiha Ling walked along the Stone Bridge towards the stone pillar, sensing the incredibly rich Natural Energy and Dragon Vein Chakra around her. She was somewhat envious.
Unfortunately, this Chakra was too violent for the human body to bear, otherwise Uchiha Ling would have wanted to store it in her Yin Seal.
However, these overflowing Dragon Vein Chakra shouldn't be wasted. Uchiha Ling took out a scroll taller than herself, intending to seal some Dragon Vein Chakra for research.
Sealing these ownerless Dragon Vein Chakra was very simple. The purple Dragon Vein Chakra was continuously absorbed into Uchiha Ling's scroll.
Like a giant purple dragon disappearing into the scroll, Minato Namikaze only glanced at Uchiha Ling's action and then ignored it.
When Sara closed the Dragon Vein spring, Uchiha Ling also absorbed the remaining Dragon Vein Chakra. Uchiha Ling rolled up the scroll and used the Reverse Summoning Technique to send it back into the belly of one of the Fusion Shiki-gami, The Well-Bottom Ignorance.
"Uchiha Ling, you go and perform the final Sealing Technique on the Dragon Vein. I need to talk to Naruto for a bit. Once the Dragon Vein is sealed, Naruto will almost certainly return to his world."
Minato naturally let the more skilled Uchiha Ling handle the Sealing Technique when she arrived, while he had his final farewell with his son from another world.
At this moment, Yamato, who had come to this era with Naruto, finally arrived. He realized he was late, but also that he had arrived at an opportune time.
Uchiha Ling looked at the stone pillar and considered the design concept for sealing the Dragon Vein that Minato had proposed. Uchiha Ling decided to make it more complex and, ideally, add a Space-Time Barrier.
A Three-Talent Seal combined with the Four Symbols and Five Elements nested within each other, and an outermost Space-Time Sealing Barrier, with a backdoor left for herself—that would be perfect.
Uchiha Ling felt that she might have a use for this Dragon Vein in the future, so she couldn't seal it too tightly. Just as Uchiha Ling touched the Dragon Vein's eye,
Uchiha Ling felt her soul being pulled into a dark space. On the ground was a pool of water. There was nothing here but two glowing, long-horned old men in front of her.
Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Hamura were sitting cross-legged, floating on Truth-Seeking Orbs, and then slowly turned around, looking quite imposing.
"Holy hell! What the heck?! Sage of Six Paths and Ōtsutsuki Hamura! Did you pull me here through this Dragon Vein?"
Uchiha Ling subconsciously became wary, but then thought that she was no match for them, so she decisively gave up. If these two old men wanted to kill her, she couldn't escape now.
"Hmm, it seems you know our identities, so there's no need for us to waste words explaining."
"Our descendant, who has changed the history of the Ninja World, we have brought your soul here by your contact with the Dragon Vein. We have something to entrust to you regarding the future of the Ninja World."
The Sage of Six Paths, looking ancient and rigid, spoke in an archaic, elegant tone that annoyed Uchiha Ling, while Ōtsutsuki Hamura chuckled secretly beside him.
He knew that his brother's way of speaking would surely be disliked.
"So, what do you two old men want with me? You're not going to tell me not to interfere with Ninja World matters, are you?"
Uchiha Ling wandered around the dark space, looking here and touching there, while the Six Paths Sage and Otsutsuki Hagoromo ignored Uchiha Ling's behavior.
"The history of the Ninja World is shaped by people. Since I am dead, I will no longer interfere. How you choose to act and what the outcome will be is up to you."
The Sage of Six Paths looked down at Uchiha Ling, who had run in front of him, lively and curious, staring at the twin horns on his head. A trace of helplessness flashed across his face.
"Ah, ah, so what do you two old men want with me? Let me tell you now, if it's too difficult or complicated, I won't do it. But if you can give me some benefits, that's a different story."
Uchiha Ling confirmed that the two old men in front of her were indeed soul bodies, but given their Yin-Yang Release mastery, reconstructing their bodies and reviving would probably be a matter of an instant.
"There is nothing you need to do. We only wish to ask you to try your best to bring peace and stability to this world. Indra, deceived by Black Zetsu, wishes to restore world peace through Infinite Tsukuyomi. You and Ashura need to stop him."
The Truth-Seeking Orb beneath the Six Paths Sage's backside was genuine, completely condensed from high-density Yin-Yang Release Chakra, and the Six Paths Staff beside him was the same.
"Couldn't Ashura do this without me? Besides, why should I listen to an old man like you? But if you lend me this black Six Paths Staff to play with, I might agree."
The Six Paths Sage found it difficult to deal with such an overly clever and lively descendant. Indra was clever but not lively, while Ashura was lively but not clever.
"No, the Six Paths Staff contains Six Paths Power. It cannot be used by anyone not of Six Paths Level, otherwise, touching it will turn you to ash."
Uchiha Ling nodded with some regret. If she couldn't play with the Six Paths Staff, then what other benefits could she gain? She knew these two old men must have many treasures.
"I want to establish a unified nation, to unite the Ninja World, and make all people citizens of one country. As long as I don't die or become incompetent, the Ninja World can enjoy eternal peace and happiness."
Uchiha Ling felt it was better to tell the Sage of Six Paths her thoughts. If he didn't agree, she wouldn't get involved and would let the two fools, Ashura's reincarnations, shape the Ninja World as they pleased.
"That is possible, or rather, your idea is very good. For a thousand years, I have also considered ways to achieve peace in the Ninja World. Hamura and I found that relying on Chakra for mutual understanding and tolerance is almost impossible. Originally, I thought of relying on Ashura to try and achieve this, but upon reflection, I knew it would only last for a while."
The Six Paths Sage expressionlessly admitted his failure. Idealists would ultimately die under the shattered ideals of reality.
"You think that highly of me? Then I'm going to make some big changes, okay? But aren't you two old men going to give me some benefits?"
The Six Paths Sage's face stiffened. He realized that trying to persuade her empty-handed was indeed very difficult, but fortunately, he had anticipated this.
Ōtsutsuki Hamura smiled as he watched the conversation between his brother and his descendant. This was the first time he had encountered someone who could make his brother so flustered, but it also gave him another idea.
