章節 83: Chapter 83: Ascending to Immortality
Ryujiro, seated atop the giant snake statue, slowly opened his eyes.
Now, his aura was even more powerful, and the Hogyoku within him had become even purer and more radiant.
This training in Ryuchi Cave had not only enhanced his recovery but also allowed his body to move with the agility of a snake.
In simple terms, Ryujiro could transform into a snake form similar to Orochimaru.
In terms of essential power, both Sage Modes had similar enhancements. The combination of Sage Modes gave Ryujiro a distinct feeling.
It wasn't merely an increase in strength; he could clearly feel that his body had undergone some subtle changes.
This sensation was akin to the Great Toad Sage and the White Snake Sage.
However, Ryujiro looked at his reflection in the pool, noticing the purple eye shadow at the corners of his eyes, and then closed his eyes.
Gradually, the purple eye shadow faded away.
Clenching his fist, he muttered, "The increase in power isn't that significant."
"But this feeling..."
"My Sage Chakra has increased several times compared to before."
After completing the training in Ryuchi Cave, Ryujiro could distinctly feel the differences between this alternate space and the outside world.
His fingertip drew a line across the giant snake statue, and a powerful suction pulled Ryujiro inside.
At the same time, the White Snake Sage, who was in deep slumber, abruptly opened her eyes. Ryujiro slowly emerged from another dimension.
"You actually succeeded."
She was shocked, staring at Ryujiro, whose aura was even more terrifying than before.
Two types of Sage Arts. This boy had actually mastered two Sage Jutsu, truly terrifying.
How could Konoha produce so many monsters?
This boy was far more frightening than Konoha's First Hokage. She had never seen such a terrifying human.
The immense Sage Chakra and the Sage Body were almost on par with those who had lived for countless years.
"Yes."
"This is all thanks to your help."
The White Snake Sage shook her head and smiled, "I have done nothing. It is you who achieved the coexistence of the two Sage Jutsu."
"Do you..."
"Still wish to obtain the Sage Jutsu of the Shikkotsu Forest?"
Ryujiro nodded undeniably.
Ryujiro wanted to master all three Sage Modes of the three sacred places because no one knew if there was any connection between the Sage Arts of the three sacred places.
If all three Sage Modes were gathered within one person, what kind of transformation would occur?
The White Snake Sage was silent, looking at Ryujiro and slowly said, "If you can integrate all three Sage Arts, perhaps you really could achieve what is recorded in the ancient texts, the so-called Ascending to Immortality."
Ascending to Immortality?
Ryujiro frowned. It seemed there were indeed some things about the Sage Arts of the three sacred places that he didn't know.
Although he knew the main storyline of the original anime, this was a real world of Naruto he had come to, a real and vivid world.
Even if he knew most of the stories and some secrets from the plot, there were always things in the ninja world he didn't know.
"White Snake Sage, what does Ascending to Immortality mean?"
The White Snake Sage replied earnestly, "The ancient texts of the three sacred places record that if someone can master the Sage Arts of all three sacred places, they can ascend to immortality and become a true Sage as described in legends."
"It's said that once ascended, the practitioner will undergo significant changes."
Becoming a true Sage?
Ryujiro touched his chin.
This was indeed interesting.
But for Ryujiro who was already on path of immortality this meant nothing much.
He knew when the Hogyoku completes its evolution, he will evolve into another higher level being.
What he was doing now was to make the Hogyoku even more perfect. The Hogyoku had its own consciousness.
Not only did Ryujiro want to become stronger, but the Hogyoku itself was also unsatisfied.
If he integrates some elements from this world, perhaps the Hogyoku would undergo unexpected changes as well.

Only 11%.
It seemed that as the Hogyoku evolved, the progress would accelerate.
And his own eyes...
Heh.
Honestly, Ryujiro had not expected that the Hogyoku could actually analyze and replicate the Sharingan's power, and even though he didn't have Uchiha blood, he unexpectedly awakened the Sharingan.
"You are the most monstrous human I've ever seen. To be honest, I didn't think you could perfectly integrate two Sage Arts at first."
"But now after you did it, I have nothing more to say."
"Perhaps you really can achieve the immortality recorded in the texts."
The White Snake Sage was also looking forward to seeing if the recorded ascension truly existed.
She had high hopes for Ryujiro's future.
Ascending to immortality...
Indeed, it was something to look forward to.
Ryujiro's eyes gleamed with an unusual light.

Currently, in Konoha, Ryujiro's shadow clone had been helping with Hokage's duties.
In the past few days, no one had noticed that the Ryujiro before them was just a shadow clone.
As Ryujiro left the Hokage's office, he suddenly sensed an extremely unusual aura.
A cold, damp, and repulsive feeling.
Ryujiro's figure instantly vanished from the street, and Kakashi, who was secretly following him, was momentarily stunned.
He looked around but couldn't detect Ryujiro's presence.
"Where did that kid go?"
Kakashi couldn't help but feel that Ryujiro's friendly demeanor was just a façade.
His third sense told him that Ryujiro's true nature was hidden beneath the surface.
Why did the Hokage advisors conclude that Sasuke had defected to Orochimaru? What did Ryujiro and the advisors discuss that day?
Kakashi had been investigating Ryujiro as soon as the news of Sasuke's defection was announced, and he found some clues regarding it.
It was rumored that someone had seen Sasuke and Ryujiro confronting each other on the street before disappearing, but no one knew what happened afterward.
If that was the case, how did the Anbu see Sasuke and Orochimaru together?
Given Orochimaru's personality, he would never let an Anbu go easily.
Something was surely fishy about all this.
On the Hokage Rock, Ryujiro's clone frowned, sensing the unusual chakra fluctuations around him.
What was going on?
Someone had definitely been here, but his Observation Haki didn't detect any other presence.
Forget it. Since they were gone, there was no need to dwell on it.
After Ryujiro disappeared, a figure slowly emerged from a tree.
"His perception is too sharp."
"If we weren't disguised within the tree, we would have been discovered."
Black Zetsu stared deeply at the spot where Ryujiro had left.
These Konoha ninjas were not simple. The plan needed to be accelerated.
