I will use the ninja world to aid my cultivation of immortality.

At this moment, Naraku, who was on the ninth floor of the Star Tower, seemed to be sensing strands of silvery faith power constantly converging towards him.

Although the power of faith is formless and intangible, it is actually an energy with extremely high potential.

The use of the power of faith is described extensively in the "Secret Canon of Immortals".

For example, the cultivation of some supernatural powers requires the power of faith.

Some cultivation techniques can even use the power of faith to replace spiritual energy to enhance cultivation.

Of course, just as Naraku couldn't sense the power of faith before.

As a mere Qi Refining cultivator, he couldn't yet access the power of faith, so he was currently more curious about it than anything else.

However, curiosity is one thing, but that doesn't mean Naraku would ignore the power of faith.

Whether it was to revive the Bronze Tower and awaken more power, or to prepare for any unforeseen circumstances, he placed great importance on the power of faith.

If his original purpose in developing his power was to better collect resources to support his cultivation, now he has added another purpose: to gather more people to collect the power of faith.

While the Star Kingdom was vigorously developing its faith, a fierce battle had just taken place somewhere in the Rain Kingdom.

Under the misty drizzle, the damp earth was riddled with potholes, and mutilated corpses were scattered all around.

"Nagato, are there any other enemies?"

Her light blue-purple hair and fiery black robe were soaked by the rain, but Konan, panting heavily, paid no attention to it. While looking around warily, she whispered to Nagato beside her.

The chilling Rinnegan swept across the surroundings, and Nagato, who was also soaked by the rain, shook his head: "That's it. This time, the only enemies are these people."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Nan's tense nerves relaxed.

Another wave of assassinations has ended.

Although they don't know if new enemies will come, at least they have successfully survived this battle.

Thinking of this, Xiao Nan subconsciously looked at the figure standing on the other side of Nagato.

He was also dressed in a black robe shrouded in fiery clouds.

The figure on the other side of Nagato had the same Rinnegan as Nagato, and his face was adorned with black nails.

Most importantly, the figure's appearance was that of Yahiko, who was supposed to be dead.

Pain, the Deva Path clone of the Six Paths.

This is Yahiko's current identity.

Several days have passed since Yahiko's death.

During this period, Nagato and Konan were constantly being assassinated.

The constant battles, while making it difficult for the two to find peace, also helped Nagato adapt to the power of the Rinnegan more quickly.

Now, Nagato has fully mastered the Rinnegan's power, which was greatly amplified by Yahiko's death.

Just like in the original story, in order to allow Yahiko to continue to accompany him and Konan, he used the eye technique awakened by his Rinnegan to transform Yahiko's corpse into the first Six Paths clone.

Looking at Yahiko standing to the side as if he were still alive, Konan felt a mix of emotions.

There is both sorrow and joy.

The grief she felt was that she knew the Yahiko before her was not the real Yahiko, but merely a puppet.

Joy felt the same way. Although she knew that Yahiko in front of her was just a puppet, she was already very satisfied that Yahiko could continue to fight alongside her and Nagato.

While Konan was distracted by Yahiko, Nagato had already stepped forward and grabbed an enemy's corpse.

The Rinnegan focused, unleashing terrifying ocular power.

Nagato was using the Rinnegan to read the memories from the corpse's mind.

"As expected, it's someone from Konoha again. Compared to Hanzo, Danzo from Konoha deserves to die even more!"

Access to the memories was not without its obstacles; in fact, there was a very powerful curse mark placed in the corpse's mind.

This incantation is called the "Seal of Eradicating the Root of Tongue Calamity".

That's right.

The enemy killed by Nagato and his two companions was sent by Danzo to seize the Rinnegan.

The restriction of the "Seal of the Extinction of the Tongue" is very strong.

But it clearly couldn't withstand the power of the Rinnegan.

With an overwhelming disparity in skill, Nagato easily broke through the seal of the "Seal of the Extinction of the Tongue," accessing the memories in the corpse's mind.

Upon accessing his memories, a shadow immediately fell over his eyes.

During these days, there were two groups of people hunting him down.

One wave came from Hanzo, and the other from Danzo.

Compared to the former, the latter has a much higher frequency of occurrence.

By reading his memories, Nagato naturally understood why Danzo had been sending people to hunt him down so frequently.

The other party's goal was to take his eyes.

Nagato was not surprised that someone wanted to take his eyes.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have deliberately hidden it with his hair in the first place.

He knew better than anyone the allure of the Rinnegan.

Just because he understands something doesn't mean he'll remain indifferent.

The thought that Yahiko's death was due to Danzo's scheme filled Nagato's heart with a chilling murderous intent.

He would never forget Yahiko's grudge. Once he had accumulated enough power, he would not let either Danzo or Konoha behind him go.

"Nagato, where do we go next?"

Coming to her senses, Konan looked at Nagato and stepped forward to ask him.

He threw down the corpse he was holding.

Nagato slowly turned around, looked at Konan, and said in a deep voice, "Continue to find a place to hide. Time is on our side now. As long as I have enough time, I will only become stronger in the future."

Once I am strong enough, no one will be able to stop me, whether it's to avenge Yahiko or to fulfill his dream!

"Yes, I believe you!" Xiao Nan nodded softly.

She witnessed Nagato's growth during this period firsthand.

Nagato's growth rate has always far surpassed that of Yahiko and her, and it has improved even further recently.

In addition to his strength, Nagato's personality also underwent a significant change.

He matured all at once, completely losing his former introverted nature, as if he had inherited Yahiko's will.

"Fire Release: The Art of Fire Dragon!"

"Wooden Release: The birth of the tree world!"

The roaring fire dragon and the wildly growing trees collided violently in the underground space.

In the fierce battle, the fire dragon burned a large number of trees to ashes with its terrifyingly high temperature.

However, due to the continuous growth of the trees, the fire dragon was eventually shattered and extinguished.

The trees that had defeated the fire dragon continued to spread toward Obito Uchiha on the opposite side, their power undiminished.

Just as the tree was about to touch him, Obito Uchiha's body seemed to turn into a phantom, causing the tree to pass right through him.

The Kaleidoscope Sharingan rotates.

Obito Uchiha, whose body was intangible using Kamui, relied on his complete eye power to continue to be immune to the contact of trees while rushing out to attack the White Zetsu who was using Wood Release.

Chapter 203 The Appearance of Black Zetsu

The figure flashed.

Just as Obito Uchiha closed the distance between them, his figure suddenly blurred, and he suddenly increased his speed again, appearing on the side of White Zetsu as if he had flashed.

Bang! !

With a powerful punch, Obito Uchiha struck a White Zetsu in the head, sending the opponent flying.

Sharp splinters grew from the ground beneath their feet.

White Zetsu unleashed Wood Release again as he was being sent flying.

However, Obito Uchiha keenly sensed the abnormality beneath his feet and once again used Kamui to intangibly transform his body, making him immune to the wood spikes.

It crashed in the distance.

Obito Uchiha's punch was incredibly powerful, even deforming the White Zetsu's head.

The moment it landed, White Zetsu's head immediately returned to its original state as if it had been regenerated. Then, it clasped its hands together and continued to use Wood Release to attack.

"Kamui" and "Fire Release".

Facing the White Zetsu's Wood Release, Obito Uchiha showed no panic, but instead handled it with ease.

They could either use "Divine Might" to become immune to attacks, or they could use Fire Release to counterattack.
