Chapter 14: The Sealing Scroll
Shadowstream ninjas armed with dark light armor lurked near the forest, waiting for the man's shadow to appear, and at the sound of an order, they broke into the dojo of equilibrium. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Now I'm alone, and I'm infiltrating the Equilibrium Dojo just to retrieve that thing.
Scroll of Shadow Ninjutsu,
It was the black ninjutsu scroll he stumbled upon in the ruined temple that day.
Due to Akali's sudden appearance, he only saw half of the ninjutsu in it, but only relying on that half of the ninjutsu, he defeated the genius Shen of his age.
However, over the years, he has continued to refine his shadow ninjutsu, and he has become more and more aware that his ninjutsu is not complete, and he must obtain that scroll in order to make his true ninjutsu mysteries complete.
He could sense the location of the scroll, it was exuding some kind of energy that echoed him, after cultivating the Shadow Ninja, his ninja energy had begun to have a strong dark aura, he could often hear the distant call, as if the forbidden scroll was also waiting for his rescue in a lonely and long seal.
The Great Elder was already standing in the courtyard waiting for him.
He was dressed in a grand manner, with a hakama woven with feathers and a pair of clogs, which was the traditional Ionian attire, and he remembered that he would only wear such formal clothes for grand festivals or temple fairs.
As a ninja, you're always fighting more than you're free, so it's rare to choose to dress like this.
"I knew you were coming." The Great Elder said.
"I'll get that." He said coldly, and his eyes under the silver hair were as cold as a blade.
"Tea is ready, why don't you have a cup first?" The Great Elder said slowly, a set of tea sets had already been prepared behind him, a delicate hollow carved wooden tea tray, and the copper kettle next to it seemed to be boiling water, but there was no firewood underneath, but the kettle was already whining, and steam was constantly spewing out from the spout.
He was about to refuse, but the Great Elder had already moved slowly in front of him, and he poured the boiling water from the kettle into the teapot, and the tea leaves churned in the hot water, slowly spreading the leaves.
"I'm not here for tea." He said lightly.
"I'll give you something." The Great Elder didn't look back, just stared at the emerald green tea leaves floating in the boiling hot water, as if he didn't realize that it was the person behind him who single-handedly created the current shadow flow—the current enemy of the Equilibrium Sect, as if he was just a wanderer who had not returned for many years.
The tea leaves slowly sank, and the Great Elder controlled the water flow with the Water Escape Technique, skimming out the foam on the surface of the tea, and then gently lifted the teapot, poured it into the cup that had already been warmed, and handed it to the hand of the robber.
"I'm sorry." The Great Elder said slowly, "I'm afraid it's indeed the teacher's mistake. The Equilibrium Sect has never gotten rid of the tradition of ninja aggressiveness, and when it comes to equilibrium and adaptation to the Heavenly Dao, in fact, we have never been able to truly achieve it. I shouldn't have expelled you from the Sect of Equilibrium in a fit of rage. ”
Zai raised his eyebrows, showing a rare look of extreme surprise, he had imagined many possibilities, and he had made all preparations, and even planned to kill in the Equilibrium Dojo, even if the Great Elder, the person who raised him and was once called Master by him, was unwilling to hand over the scroll, he could also slowly look for it in the ruins of the Equilibrium Dojo, and with the induction between him and the scroll, it would not be too difficult.
But he didn't expect that he was waiting for Master's belated apology.
An apology two years late.
He lowered his head slightly, unwilling to look at the somewhat sloppy figure of the Great Elder in front of him, he was now middle-aged, and his hair had turned gray early due to excessive work. "It's too late." He said coldly.
"I know. It's an irreparable debt, and an unforgivable sin of the sect itself, and I've always believed that you're a better fit for Twilight's eyes than Shen, but you're too eager to succeed and you've ruined yourself. You picked it up on a snowy night, but I believe that you are the second child that Heaven has not given me for a long time. I want you to make a difference in the way of ninjas. ”
"Snowy night?" He grew up in the Equilibrium Dojo and had heard the ancient prophecy since he was a child: the Snowy Night Child, the Equilibrium Tribulation.
But he never thought that the child, the child he picked up on a snowy night, was himself.
The Great Elder nodded, he didn't mention it to anyone, only his wife, Chiyo, knew about it, and she carried the secret to the grave.
"The enchantment has been laid in the courtyard, and no one will disturb you and me. As a teacher, I will take you to see the forbidden scroll. Whatever you want, you can do it. ”
The Great Elder said that when he entered the inner hall of the reception room, the south-facing seats were reserved for the master, and he removed the cushions there and opened a secret compartment, not expecting that there was such a cellar under the tatami mats of this room.
He opened his palm, and the Fire Escape Technique pulled up a cluster of red flames in the palm of his palm for illumination, "Follow me." ”
He walked down the dark staircase, which was very cold underground, and when he came down to the end, he saw that the space at the bottom was open in all directions. There are many locked doors, surrounding where they are, in this room, there is a scroll with black gas wrapped around the whole body floating in the center, a transparent energy forms a ball, trapping it in it, each of the four elephants has a charm attached to the wall, and the sphere constructed by the energy also has a similar charm, as a student of the Equilibrium Liao, Zheng naturally knows that this is the so-called rune array, and the power of the surrounding spells is gathered into the center of the array through the rune array, forming a powerful sealing power.
The Great Elder slowly removed the talisman in the center, and the power of the sealed talisman array disappeared instantly, and the blister-like energy sphere also dissipated.
"I beg you for the teacher, rob, destroy it." The Great Elder suddenly said, "You will be the new Great Elder, and you will bring about the changes that will change the new generation of balanced ninjas. You'll make it better, even far beyond what a generation of teachers can imagine. May I? Destroy it. ”
"Now that you've got it, why don't you destroy it?" His heart trembled.
The Great Elder answered his question with action, placing his palm on the scroll, but as if grasping the reflection in the water, the hand passed through the scroll as if it were a non-existent imaginary thing.
Zai stretched out his hand, and the scroll seemed to sense his breath, making a low sound, like the low hiss of a snake, and it was also waiting for him, and the black qi that surrounded it began to move, spreading towards the palm of Zai's hand, as if it also stretched out its arm to him.
When his palm was connected with the black qi, that feeling came back again, a pure black shadow, slowly condensing and forming in front of the catastrophe.
He had the same appearance as the Catastrophe, but there was no flesh and blood on his body, and there was churning black gas everywhere, and he stood in the place where the scroll was, and where the scroll was was his heart.
The black shadow grinned and showed an exaggerated sinister grin: "Hundreds of years. Exactly...... Why? I'm the one who gave you power, ninja. ”
