Chapter 199: The Precursor
Iruka thought about it, and a somewhat mean smile gradually appeared on her face, and she looked at the Grim Reaper trapped in the formation with the eyes of a big bad wolf staring at the little lamb......
Fortunately, the current Grim Reaper is just a brain wreck who doesn't have much thinking ability, otherwise the eyes of a gentleman like Iruka would be enough to make the entire Konoha face lose here!
Iruka smirked and looked the Grim Reaper up and down in front of him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's hard to come to the underworld, you have to bring some souvenirs back to Konoha, even if it's not for a red belt, Hinata knows that this is Naruto's mother's thing, and she should be very happy......"
Since the Vortex were able to bring a Grim Reaper out of the underworld and seal it in a mask, the proud Iruka saw no reason why she couldn't do the same......
While thinking, Iruka closed her eyes, folded her hands, and began to concentrate on the chakra......
"Click......"
At this moment, a crisp sound suddenly sounded in Iruka's ears, and a picture suddenly flashed in Iruka's mind, after putting on the mask, the mask wanted to suck his soul into this world, but under the protection of the big teacher's system, the mask seemed to be cracked open by the backlash......
"Click......"
The sound in his ears became louder and louder, and Iruka had an ominous premonition in his heart, and he hurriedly accelerated the speed of condensing Chakra, but what he didn't expect was that as the condensation speed of Chakra became faster and faster, the crackling sound in his ears became louder and louder......
Iruka secretly screamed badly and quickly slowed down the speed of condensing chakra, but it was too late at this time......
With a dull cracking sound, Iruka felt the world spin around, and by the time Iruka opened his eyes, he was back in the temple of the Vortex Clan.
And the mask that was originally worn on the face was now a pile of broken fragments, shattered to the ground......
"It's a pity."
Iruka crouched down, picked up one of the fragments and stared at it in front of her for a moment, then the corners of her mouth lifted slightly.
It turned out that in Iruka's senses, his psychic tentacles still couldn't sense the existence of this fragment, which means that the special ability of this mask to communicate with the underworld comes from the material made of the mask itself, not the shape of the mask......
Iruka took out a red silk scarf from his bosom, carefully collected each piece, placed it in the center of the scarf, and wrapped the scarf......
Later, Iruka carefully examined the nearby ground to make sure that there was no more fragment of the mask on the ground, and then put the small bag wrapped in a silk scarf into his arms.
"Hoo ......"
Iruka let out a deep breath, stood up from the ground, moved his hands and feet, and returned to the statue of the Six Realms again, folding his hands and bowing to the statue.
Although it is said that the ninja path pioneered by the six paths, as well as the nine-tailed beast, have made the war in the entire ninja world more cruel and intense, but from the overall big data, compared with the large-scale war between the samurai and the peasants as light feet, the six immortals have indeed done it, allowing the largest number of civilians to leave the front line of the war!
Coupled with the merit of the two big barrel wood brothers, who saved this world from their own mothers, the Six Dao Immortals are definitely worthy of Iruka's bow.
But if that's all there is to it, being able to afford it and being willing to take the initiative to visit the shrine are two different things, and the only reason why Iruka is willing to take the initiative to visit the shrine is:
The Six Dao Immortals spread their Tao throughout the world, and perhaps in terms of strength and realm, he could not be compared with the Holy Master, Dao Ancestor, and Buddha, but he was the same as these people, and he was a pioneer in the cause of preaching......
Perhaps, his forbearance is very immature and shallow compared with the Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddha who opened the scene......
But he did his best to make this cruel and ugly world a little better, and he died!
Otsuki Hagoromo is an absolutely outstanding teacher!
He is a senior who deserves Iruka's respect!
After saluting, Iruka took the wooden mask from the statue's hand and went to the other wall opposite the mask of the underworld.
He followed what was recorded in the scroll and found the seventeenth mask in the second row, which was also a very ordinary demon mask with no features at all......
Iruka did as instructed on the scroll to remove the ordinary mask, and then gently clasped the mask he had picked up from the foot of the Six Paths statue......
However, Iruka didn't seem to feel any movement, suspecting that he had not buckled the right button to adjust the position of the mask left and right, and as a result, he used a little force in the process of adjustment......
"Click!"
The mask was pressed in slightly, and in an instant, the sound of boulders rubbing against each other came from behind Iruka......
Iruka hurriedly turned to look behind him, only to see the statue of the Six Immortals, along with the huge stone base below, begin to move back slowly, revealing a downward staircase under the stone base.
Iruka boldly walked in, the first feeling that this secret room gave Iruka was the air inside, there was no feeling of corruption or turbidity, it seemed that the Vortex Clan had made sufficient ventilation facilities back then.
Then he drew a torch from the illuminator hanging from the staircase, snapped his fingers handsomely, and lit it, the flaming torch proving Iruka's suspicion.
Just as Iruka walked up step by step, the open secret door behind him slowly closed, Iruka was not panicked, since he knew that it was not far from the ground, even if he was trapped in the end, he only needed to break through the ground and get out......
However, Iruka still habitually glanced back at the secret door, this glance solved another problem for Iruka, it turned out that the base of the six statues was densely carved with all kinds of sealing runes, which explained why Iruka didn't sense this dark room when he first entered the door, and the Vortex clan deserved to be the best at sealing in the entire ninja world!
Continuing to walk down, Iruka entered a huge hall, and the first thing that caught his eye was naturally another life-size statue of the Six Paths in the center of the hall, and the sacrificial utensils that Iruka needed were worn on the body of the Six Paths statue upright.
On top of that, the entire hall was in shambles, and it seemed as if someone had left the hall in a hurry with something they had placed in the hall.
As for whose pocket exactly what went here, it was unknown, but it should not be the foreign enemy of those extinct Vortex Clan, otherwise it would be impossible for them not to scavenge the entire hall......
It is possible that the remaining members of the Vortex Clan have divided the treasures in the hall and gone their separate ways......
It is also possible that the remnants of the Vortex One took these things to Konoha to join the Uzumaki Kushina......
It is more likely that after the Thousand Hands learned that the Vortex Clan had been wiped out, they sent someone to remove the contents inside......
All in all, those who evacuated this place, perhaps out of respect for the Six Dao Immortals, or maybe those sacrificial utensils did not have the value of letting them move away, and finally left the entire set of sacrificial utensils......
Iruka walked up to the Six Statues, took out the prepared sealing scrolls, sealed these utensils one by one as if they were inside the scrolls, then put away the scrolls, saluted the Six Statues again, and turned around and walked in the direction of the exit......
It is said that the group number is only useful if it is posted in the text...... Group number: 590433761
