Chapter Seventy-Seven: Hexagonal Ice Crystals
While Qin Xiao was in a life-and-death struggle with Orochimaru in the Soul Illusion, Konoha finally confirmed what had happened after questioning Miyuki Shimizu and Sakura Haruno, Sasuke Uchiha defected, and Qin Xiao was kidnapped by Otoshinobi Village.
In Sakura's description, there seem to be four people on the other side, and it is not ruled out that the other party has reinforcements outside the village. And due to the insistence of Naruto Uzumaki and Sakura, as well as some deep-seated reasons, the three generations of Hokage did not announce that Uchiha Sasuke had rebelled against the village, but sent a team to intercept it first.
Under the orders of the three Hokages, Konoha sent two squads and immediately tracked down the country of Ta. Since there was no Konoha Honkai incident, Konoha was still relatively well-manned, and he did not send out shinobi like in the original book.
Because it was about the seventh squad, Kakashi Hachiki naturally had to take responsibility, after all, strictly speaking, after Kakashi Hachiki taught Chidori to Sasuke, Sasuke Uchiha was already his apprentice.
The first team is the tracking team, led by Kakashi, who has the ability to track, and Naruto Uzumaki and Ninji Hinata form this team as members.
The second team is the support team, with Shinobu Baiyunyayama as the captain, and the remaining two are Miyuki Shimizu and Shino Oil. Although Miyuki Shimizu is from the medical unit, she is also a middle ninja, and she also has good medical ability, which has a great effect on the team.
The members of the tracking team are very fast, and the force value should not be underestimated, after setting off first, once the traces of the four people of the sound ninja are found, they can attack in and out, and they can also wait for the support of another group of team members.
At dawn, the two teams set off from Konoha one after another, led by Kakashi's ninja dog Parker, and the tracking team pursued towards Tanokuni at a very fast speed.
As I said before, normally, it takes about two or three days to get from Tian no Kuni to Konoha, and the four of them are not too fast because of Qin Xiao's existence, and if Kakashi and the others are fast enough, they should be able to stop a few people.
......ββββ
Turning his gaze back to the Otoshinobi Four, the Otoshinobi Four, Jirobo, Onitomaru, Zuo Jin, Tayuya, and Uchiha Sasuke were resting under a tree after a night's journey.
Uchiha Sasuke leaned against a big tree, his eyes aimed at the four of Otoshinobi, he was secretly estimating the strength of himself and the other party. Last night, his writing wheel eye evolved from a double hook jade to a triple hook jade, not only did his insight improve by a level, but the amount of chakra also increased a lot, which made him somewhat more confident.
The wooden barrel sealed with Qin Xiao was placed next to Jirofang, and along the way, the four of them took turns carrying Qin Xiao's barrel to distribute their physical strength, but no matter how tired they were, this barrel was never touched by Sasuke, and it was obvious that they were still on guard.
Uchiha Sasuke leaned against the big tree and thought, he could clearly sense that there was a powerful chakra in the barrel that was being banned, so that his chakra could not perceive Qin Xiao's chakra, if nothing else, this qin would probably be dead, but unfortunately he couldn't compete with her anymore.
Less than ten minutes later, Jirobo re-loaded the wooden barrel that sealed Qin Xiao, and the four of them and Sasuke Uchiha set off again.
Inside the barrel, Qin Xiao was still wearing last night's pajamas, his hair was scattered, and there was still no sign of waking up. And the Kusanagi Sword next to Qin Xiao was still emitting wisps of black qi, which continued to drill into Qin Xiao's body.
Qin Xiao's forehead was entwined with wisps of black qi, only in the Divine Court, there was a wisp of silver light firmly guarded, and everything else was dyed black.
And at this time, in the soul illusion, Qin Xiao finally found a way to escape.
In the soul environment filled with black mist, when the silver mist transformed by Qin Xiao's spirit found a way out, the wisp of Orochimaru's remnant soul finally jumped out and blocked Qin Xiao's way.
In fact, the spiritual mist transformed by this incomplete soul of the Great Snake Pill itself was not Qin Xiao's opponent, but alas, the Great Snake Pill had the support of the Kusanagi Sword for him. In the wisp of white mist that Orochimaru had turned into, a miniature Yaki Orochien could be vaguely seen entrenched inside, which was the mark of the Kusanagi Sword, and with this, Orochimaru was able to mobilize the power of the Kusanagi Sword.
The silver mist surged left and right in the soul illusion, constantly trying to leave through that exit, but Orochimaru was always able to intercept her, and the black mist that occupied most of the soul illusion was constantly blocking Qin Xiao's swimming.
Sonorous β
A metallic sound came out from the soul illusion, and I saw that the silver mist that Qin Xiao had turned into had actually condensed into a silver Imperial Forest Saber, and rushed towards the white mist of the Great Snake Pill at an extremely fast speed.
The black mist along the way was cut open by Qin Xiao one after another, leaving a silver trail in the air.
After the martial artist reaches the innate level, the spirit breaks through the limitations of the human body, and the strong spiritual will can even penetrate the body and directly attack others. And although Qin Xiao's spiritual power has not reached the innate level, it is not much different, and he can barely exert some spiritual means in this soul illusion.
Dingββ
The silver Imperial Forest Saber that Qin Xiao had transformed stabbed into the white mist, and instead it made a clanging sound. I saw that an illusory Kusanagi sword appeared in front of the spiritual mist of the Great Snake Pill, blocking Qin Xiao.
The silver Royal Forest Saber was shocked and flew back upside down, her spirit body shook violently, and she could no longer maintain her form, turning back into a silver mist.
And Orochimaru didn't attack after summoning the Kusanagi Sword, but just let the Kusanagi Sword stay by his side, constantly circling, as if he was just trying to trap Qin Xiao and didn't want to attack.
For a while, Qin Xiao didn't dare to rush forward again, because the confrontation between the spirits was already extremely dangerous, and the backlash just now made Qin Xiao really feel palpitations, and her spiritual body was almost unstable, almost leaving soul damage.
Time passed slowly, because there was no sign in the illusion that could be timed, and Qin Xiao didn't know how long it had passed, she gradually became agitated, because if she really reached the Great Snake Pill, she probably wouldn't have a chance to escape again.
Qin Xiao forced herself to calm down, coiled the spiritual mist into a ball, and constantly compressed, as it gradually compressed, her spiritual mist gradually became condensed, and even emitted a trace of silver light.
Qin Xiao is trying to break through the spirit to the innate level, although it is difficult to break through the spirit to the innate level, she is not completely unconfident, because in her previous life on the earth, she has done a lot of preparation homework, but just when she was only one step away, an accident happened and she crossed over to this Hokage world.
And in fact, after coming here, Qin Xiao actually had the opportunity to break through her spirit early, but she didn't do it. Because when a martial artist breaks through the innate one, it is originally a combination of the three essences and spirits, and they work together to break the restrictions of heaven and man, if there is an imbalance between the three, then there will definitely be flaws when breaking through the innate one.
But now Qin Xiao can't care so much, if his life is gone, then everything is over.
I saw that Qin Xiao's spiritual mist was constantly compressed, constantly compressed, and the silver light on the spiritual body gradually became richer, and the Great Snake Pill seemed to have noticed Qin Xiao's abnormality, swimming and wanting to come forward to observe, and the Kusanagi Sword Phantom beside him was also about to move.
And that's when something strange happened.
When Qin Xiao's spiritual body was compressed to one-third of its original size, at this moment, a blue hexagonal ice crystal suddenly emerged from Qin Xiao's spiritual body, and there was even a faint starlight flickering inside the ice crystal.
In the silver light and silver light of the whole body, there was a dazzling blue light that came out of Qin Xiao's spiritual body.
As soon as the blue light suddenly appeared, it occupied the entire soul illusion, and the place where the blue light swept, whether it was the black mist, or the white mist of Orochimaru, or even the illusory Kusanagi sword had no ability to resist, it was instantly frozen into blue ice crystals.
In just an instant, the entire Soul Illusion was frozen in a block of blue ice. Only Qin Xiao stayed in place in a daze, looking at everything that was happening in front of him in shock, and stopped breaking through.
The hexagonal ice crystal passed out from Qin Xiao's spiritual body, and it burrowed into the blue ice, the hexagonal ice crystal rotated slightly, and suddenly absorbed the entire blue ice cube into the body, and the starlight inside seemed to become a little brighter, and then it jumped into Qin Xiao's body again and disappeared again.
And the soul illusion also collapsed into pieces with the disappearance of the blue ice cube, Qin Xiao's face became ruddy again, his forehead became smooth, and the Kusanagi Sword also quieted down after losing the control of the Great Snake Pill.
Although the illusion was solved, Qin Xiao was still confused, not knowing what was going on, when there was a blue hexagonal ice crystal in her body, she didn't even know at all.
Qin Xiao carefully sensed everything in his body, but he couldn't notice the slightest trace of the existence of blue ice crystals.
Seeing that ice crystal and thinking about the shape of the ice crystal, Qin Xiao suddenly felt a sense of familiarity, she always felt as if she had seen something similar somewhere.
Searching the memories of his previous life, Qin Xiao finally remembered where he had seen this hexagonal ice crystal.
A year ago, Qin Xiao participated in a mission of the National Security Bureau to encircle and suppress a warrior who killed innocent people indiscriminately. That martial artist was cultivating the Heavenly Ice Technique, and Qin Xiao had caught a glimpse of similar ice crystals on the other party's chest in the process of fighting with him.
After a desperate struggle, although her true qi could not compare to the other party, Qin Xiao killed this person with her superior sword skills, but she was also injured a lot, and her blood seemed to splash on the ice crystal.
And after the mission was over, the National Security Bureau took back all the items on this person's body, and Qin Xiao never saw similar items again.
Could it be that because of that blood contact, this ice crystal came to her body, in this case, in the midst of the battle, the martial artist who cultivated the "Heavenly Ice Jue" also had blood stained on the ice crystal on his chest, and the National Security Bureau must have conducted research after recovering this ice crystal, it stands to reason that it could not appear in Qin Xiao's body, but this ice crystal was in Qin Xiao's body.
I couldn't figure it out, but after sorting out my thoughts, Qin Xiao no longer thought about the hexagonal ice crystal, and the key was to get out of trouble urgently.
In the dark wooden barrel, Qin Xiao reopened his eyes, the wooden barrel had been bumping, presumably the other party was still in a hurry, now he just had to break the seal of this wooden barrel.
But at this moment, the blue hexagonal ice crystal suddenly reappeared, spitting out a stream of pure spiritual power, which instantly integrated into Qin Xiao's spiritual body, and at the same time, a memory was also transmitted to Qin Xiao's mind.
