CHAPTER 239: CHAPTER 132: THE TEST BEGINS

Ghostly shadows loomed in the forest, the cold wind was blowing slowly, and a chilling "hissing" sound came from the surrounding area.

"This is the Serpent Abyss," Shinza spat out his letter and suddenly said.

Orochimaru pursed his lips slightly, and his ninja intuition made him vigilant, and a cold wind seemed to blow through his back.

Kamihane glanced lightly. Although the surrounding environment was dark, it was only for ordinary people. In his eyes, it could be described as clear as day.

After evolving into the "Poseidon Body", his already extraordinary eyes were endowed with powerful observation abilities. He could automatically adjust the light-reflecting tissue behind the retina according to the air humidity and the refractive index of light, fully capture the available light, thereby enhancing visual ability in dark environments, which allowed him to directly see the deepest part of the trench.

After transplanting Uchiha Kagami’s Mangekyō Sharingan, these eyes were also passively adapted into similar properties, and even with the blessing of eternal pupil power, the observation ability was better than before.

At this moment, in Kamihane’s vision, countless dark and deformed snake-shaped meat balls were surrounding him.

There was no way to describe their faces. They were distorted and deformed faces, and the only thing they had in common was the snake letter that kept spitting out of their mouths.

"These things are the failures who passed the test but failed to withstand the erosion of natural energy."

Shinza said slowly, "Because they are too ugly, even Tagitsuhime and the others can’t bring themselves to eat them. They can only be discarded outside Ryūchi Cave at will. Over time, the Serpent Abyss has formed."

"I understand the reason, but what’s with the strong hostility?" Kamihane glanced at it.

Shinza sneered, "This is the tragedy of humans. Although their bodies are eroded by natural energy and become monsters, most of their minds are still awake, maintaining the seven emotions and six desires of human nature, but jealousy and greed have devoured their reason."

"They will equally envy everyone who comes to Ryūchi Cave to practice Sage Art. Therefore, their favorite food is the corpses of those seeking immortality."

Shinza raised his head, "A large number of people did not even get the qualification to pass the level and were buried in their mouths. This is also why Ryūchi Cave is called the most dangerous sacred land."

"Rather than accepting one’s failure, they hate the success of others more?" Kamihane murmured silently, and his eyes flashed with some understanding.

Shinza glanced at Orochimaru, who was full of vigilance, and sneered, "Don’t be afraid, with this lord here, this group of monsters can’t hurt you..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Kamihane slowly raise his hands.

"Things that have their humanity devoured are not worthy of living in this world. In that case... let me send you to reincarnation," Kamihane said calmly, the cold voice like the ghost wind in the tomb.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

In an instant, his fingertips changed like butterflies, and a series of afterimages flashed in the air. Countless subtle sounds of piercing through the air echoed constantly in the deep forest, like stones falling into a mountain stream, one after another.

Shinza couldn’t help but narrow his eyes. With the blessing of Sage Art, his snake pupils could also see the night as day. At this moment, he clearly saw that the surroundings were already covered with dense threads!

Those threads were as thin as hairs and more difficult to identify than real spider silk. Each one was glowing with a strong metallic luster, spreading in all directions like a spider web, and the only source was Kamihane’s hands!

"Die."

Kamihane pulled his hands together, and the threads intertwined and closed. A slight breeze blew, bringing countless subtle cutting sounds.

Then, a neat muffled groan suddenly sounded in the forest, and the chilling and dense "hissing" sound stopped abruptly, and everything was quiet.

"Boom! Boom!"

Trees collapsed, residual leaves flew, and a strong **** smell suddenly filled every inch of the air. Scarlet red soaked the earth and gathered into depressions in the wilderness.

"This... this..." Shinza’s pupils trembled, completely dumbfounded.

He had thought that Kamihane’s methods were extraordinary. After all, he had personally witnessed the Complete Body Susanoo like a martial god descending, which was the power that could destroy and level Ryūchi Cave, but at this moment, this power, which seemed light and fluttering, but cruelly killed creatures with a snap of his fingers, made him even more fearful!

Shinza shrank his neck, and at some point, even the snake body wrapped around Kamihane’s arm had loosened a bit.

Kamihane turned his head intentionally or unintentionally, glanced behind him, and a cold and arrogant smile crossed the corner of his mouth.

Under Shinza’s guidance, the two continued to walk inside for a while, and finally stopped in the center of an open mountain forest.

"Okay, I can only lead the way here. The first trial controlled by Tagitsuhime is in front."

Shinza twisted his body and crawled to the ground, turned his head and took a deep look at Kamihane, "I’ll wait for you inside."

After saying that, the scarlet figure completely merged into the darkness and disappeared.

The surrounding area was covered with heavy fog, and the undulating outlines could barely be seen, which were the shadows of the mountains.

Orochimaru took a deep breath and subconsciously stepped forward, but found that Kamihane suddenly turned around and walked in a strange direction.

"Teacher?"

"This white fog is a kind of illusion. If you continue to move forward, you will keep going around in circles, which is the so-called ghost wall," Kamihane said calmly, "The correct path is under my feet."

Orochimaru followed immediately and hesitated, "Teacher, if you do this..."

"You think it’s not fair for me to help you, and it doesn’t represent your true strength?" Kamihane raised his eyebrows slightly, instantly discerning his disciple’s thoughts.

"Yes."

Kamihane spread his hands indifferently, "This illusion is just a method to test whether you are ’sincere’. For us, it’s a complete waste of time and meaningless."

Orochimaru nodded heavily, and followed obediently behind Kamihane. Sure enough, in a short time, bright golden light lit up at the end of the field of vision.

The two continued to move forward, and as the white fog gradually faded, a magnificent palace appeared in front of them.

Towering buildings and jade-like decorations. Three rows of golden lanterns engraved with the character "Dragon" were hung on the antique-style building. The golden light seen earlier was emitted by them. Although the architectural style was ancient, it could not hide the amazing extravagance. On the plaque in the center of the palace gate, there were three large characters "Ryūchi Cave".

Kamihane stopped in front of the palace, habitually touched his chin, and was silent.

"This is Ryūchi Cave?" Orochimaru took two steps forward and said somewhat unexpectedly, "It’s not what I thought it would be.

Just then, accompanied by the echo of "creaking," the palace gate opened to both sides, and the brilliance suddenly bloomed, causing Orochimaru’s pupils to shrink slightly.

In the warm and gentle light like the warm sun, the figure of a beautiful woman gradually became clear.

She had a standard beautiful face, a white dress, her black hair was coiled into complicated buns, she wore a golden crown on her forehead, and she wore light rouge. Her slender eyelashes were also carefully trimmed. At this moment, she respectfully gathered her long sleeves and showed a polite smile to the two of them.

"Two of you, we have been waiting for a long time."
