Konoha's Master of Illusion

Chapter 154 Reverse Psychic
"You have to know that we have always been lucky enough to discover the same species among countless beasts of the same species. The chance is so small that there has even been a certain type of beast that has not been found for hundreds or thousands of years. Spiritual Awakening Presence”

"It is conceivable what kind of shock the appearance of human beings is. Look at that little guy on the ground."

Following the other party's words, Zheye lowered his head and looked at a small snake that was meandering by in the darkness on the ground. It seemed to have no response to anything in the outside world, and it slowly crawled back into the darkness.

"If it were outside Longdi Cave, it would probably run away immediately when it saw you."

Immortal White Snake seemed to have been staring at the little snake that had gone somewhere, and there was some emotion in his tone:
"But here, because of my presence, they are naturally not afraid of people."

"Can you imagine how I feel when I look at them? Are they the same kind of people as me? It doesn't seem to be the case, because I can think, speak, and communicate with you, a human being."

"But it doesn't work."

"But if I weren't of the same kind and clan, I would have been just like this snake at the beginning. It was only with good luck and wisdom that I gradually became the so-called White Snake Immortal, and I have lived till now."

Tetsuya already understood what the other party meant. It was obvious that beings like the White Snake Immortal in this story would start studying humans next.

Naturally, newborn humans cannot be the opponents of these "ninja beasts" who awakened from beasts due to natural energy, but this path of trying to find out why the human race is born with intelligence ultimately failed.

In the end, all this was forgotten, and the conflict between the ninja beasts and humans gradually changed from being studied at the beginning to a war for living space.

"It's hard to imagine that your human reproduction and growth speed are so amazing. You build houses and castles, plant and farm, raise livestock, invent all kinds of things, and even slowly begin to gain the upper hand when facing us."

"Forget it, there is actually no use in talking about these. I don't know how long ago it was. At my age, they are all distant stories that are beyond my reach."

The White Snake Immortal interrupted his words, giving Tetsuya the opportunity to ask questions:

"Have you never found a way to increase the population of your own kind? Just rely on luck to be born by chance among these beasts?"

"Haha, that's not the case"

"The method was eventually found, but the efficiency was very low."

"The entire snake species in Longdi Cave are shrouded in my natural energy. If it lasts long enough, several of the same species will appear. Have you met Tian Xin Shenji? She is the one who has appeared in the years I have been in charge of Longdi Cave. New kin."

"So few?" Zheye asked subconsciously, "But there seem to be a lot of toads in Miaomu Mountain."

He didn't quite remember how many talking toads there were in Miaomu Mountain, but if the White Snake Immortal in Ryūchi Cave had only had a few of his own kind for thousands of years, then the toads were obviously different.

There should be no less than two digits of toads in Miaomu Mountain, maybe more, maybe dozens or even hundreds.

"The situation in Mount Miaomu is different from what I have here."

The other party blew out white smoke and said slowly:
"You have to know that Gamamaru is a meritorious official, and it is normal for him to receive preferential treatment. It is only right to give birth to more clan members."

"Successful?"

"Yes, meritorious"

……

Uchiha Itachi looked at the entrance to the ruins in front of him with an inexplicable expression. It was buried deep in the mountains. After digging and exploring with Kisame, it took several days of busy work to find some clues.

"I don't know how many years this place has been buried, and I don't know when it was built..." Kisame thrust the same shark muscle in his hand into the pile of rocks on the ground, splashing a lot of bricks and gravel: " And it’s quite hidden, so it’s so troublesome to find.”

He held the shark muscle in his hand, grinding and twisting in the rocks, his sharp and hard thorns grinding the excavated gravel and bricks into pieces, seemingly dissatisfied with himself for doing such a boring task.

"This is not necessarily a human relic."

Itachi glanced at him, stood in front of the dug hole and said:

"Thousands of years ago, humans are not the only ones who can build these buildings in this world, and they were dug out in the deep mountains. Its history should be longer than the history of ninjas."

"So exaggerated?"

Kisame threw Samehada back on his shoulders with force, picked it up again and asked:

"If it has nothing to do with ninjas, what are we doing here?"

He looked like he didn't know the purpose of his action, but it wasn't a complete disguise. This kind of mission to explore ancient ruins was assigned by Nagato. If he found some information worth taking away, he would hand it over directly. And what Kisame was he specifically looking for? I really don’t know.

"Ninjas are not the only power in this world, or chakra is actually just a kind of power." Under the guidance of the masked man Obito, Itachi saw the stone tablet passed down by the Uchiha clan, and then he naturally became familiar with it. I became interested in the secrets hidden in the long history, and I understood a lot. At this time, I explained lightly: "The history is too long, and the history of the emergence of ninjas is only in the last thousand years."

"Really? The legendary Onmyoji? Then why can't you see them at all now? Those warriors from the Kingdom of Iron are not included. The ones I've seen don't use chakra!"

"I don't know, maybe there is an answer here."

After the conversation, the two were silent for a while.

"Go in and have a look"

After Kisame finished speaking, he and Itachi walked into the entrance that was forced open by brute force.

A lot of broken masonry fell into the interior of the building. Different from the common bricks sintered from clay, the stone bricks used here were all more than two meters long, nearly one meter wide and half a meter thick, made entirely of some kind of bricks. Cut out of solid rock with regular shapes.

It’s hard to see what the adhesive used when stacking them is. It’s dark black and even harder than stone bricks after solidification.

The interior space was also extremely wide. Kisame lit a torch for illumination. Except for the stone wall behind him, there were several meters between his head and the front. The firelight could not directly and clearly illuminate the details of the entire space.

"It's so big." Kisame sighed, and then said, "Split up and look around?"

Itachi nodded and walked to the left.

The first impression you get inside the ruins is that it is clean. Not only is there nothing on the ground, but the walls and ceilings are also flat. If you look closely, there are only completely exposed giant stone bricks and adhesive surfaces. Other than that, Even external lighting is non-existent.

However, Itachi's mind was not on the strange environment here. He turned back to confirm that Kisame was far away, and formed a shadow clone with his hands.

The shadow clone remained silent, waiting for the main body to unfold a scroll, then pressed his hand upwards, and then suddenly disappeared.

Itachi watched as the shadow clone triggered reverse channeling, and his pair of slowly rotating Mangekyō Sharingan eyes narrowed slightly. He didn't know what kind of news the shadow clone would bring back to him.

Speaking of which, Orochimaru paid a high price.

The contract in Longdi Cave is not an ordinary existence. Itachi, the existence of the three holy places and the magic, also understands that this psychic contract not only represents the opportunity to master the magic, but also the opportunity to understand the secrets of the holy land.

If you are willing to give away such a good thing, what benefits can the other party get from cooperating with Tetsuya Yamanaka?

After all, help cannot be given free of charge.
