The conversation lasted for over half an hour before the three elders finally left.
Uchiha Fugaku made his way to the hidden chamber beneath his study. He took out a sealing scroll and retrieved the corpse of a member of the Yamanaka clan.
“Corpse Refinement—”
The Yamanaka clan corpse was placed into the corpse refinement space. From it, a biological tissue resembling cells—but not quite—began to form. It bore the characteristics of bloodline inheritance.

Shuyan listened to Qiangu Chaoshen’s words but, for a time, didn’t know what to say. After pondering for a moment, he slowly spoke:
“Elder Qian, the reason you summoned me today surely isn’t just to tell me all this. What you truly want to say... must still be coming.”
Qiangu Chaoshen chuckled lightly and nodded. His gaze drifted upward, toward the lingering hues of sunset, and he spoke softly:
“Human desire is endless. For those of us standing at the pinnacle of...

Upon hearing this, Shu Yan looked at Qian Gu Chaoshen with slight surprise, but he eventually nodded without any objections.
Qian Gu Chaoshen wasn’t surprised by Shu Yan’s reaction. A nostalgic light flickered in his still-bright eyes as he began to speak softly:
“I was born in a small city in the southern region of the Star Luo Empire. My father’s martial soul was the Coiling Dragon Staff, and my mother’s was a mutated Wind-Chasing Wolf.”
“When I turned six, I...

The World’s End sped down the river, its velocity astonishing—no less impressive than the ancient saying “depart Baidi in the morning, arrive at Jiangling by dusk.”
Incidentally, the river beneath them was none other than the unlucky one named “Dou River” by Cheng Ying. It originated from the mysterious, fog-veiled heights east of Tian Dou City—specifically, the plateau where the Clear Sky Clan resided in seclusion.
Flowing east to west into the sea, this wa...

With Chengying’s command, the neatly arranged sailors at the shore began boarding the ship one after another. All supplies necessary for the voyage had already been loaded; once the ship hit the water and unfurled its sails, they could set off at any moment.
“The wind is favorable! Prepare to ignite!” the first mate said, dabbing a bit of spit onto his palm and shouting toward the craftsmen on the ground.
His loud voice jolted the craftsmen by the river embankment to attenti...

On the auction stage.
Behind the soul bone display case.
A drop of cold sweat trickled down Romanyak’s forehead as he stiffly turned his head to look at Lord Xiao, the city lord.
He knew exactly who that man in black was!
But now Dales had stopped bidding!
The smile on Lord Xiao’s face began to freeze. He awkwardly signaled Romanyak to strike the auction hammer—otherwise, the soul masters below might get riled up by that ba...

Notting City, Central Plaza.
City Lord Xiao and Deputy City Lord Romanyak had already constructed a temporary stage here to display the soul bone to be auctioned:
A head soul bone from a Moo Spring Ox.
Soul masters and members of minor clans had crowded around.
It had only been three days since news of the soul bone auction spread, yet Notting City had become incredibly lively. Many soul masters from nearby cities rushed over during th...

Romantina’s words were shocking.
Xiao Wu: “???”
Tang San: “…” Once again, he questioned the name “San.” Somehow, it always seemed to take on strange meanings.
“Don’t talk nonsense!”

"Lord Hokage, do you believe I had something to do with Advisor Danzo’s disappearance?"
Faced with the pressure of the Third Hokage’s presence, Uchiha Fugaku remained unmoved. He furrowed his brow and asked calmly.
"Indeed," answered Advisor c coldly in place of the Third Hokage, her gaze sharp as if scrutinizing a criminal.

After a moment of thought, the Third Hokage replied.

He had long been prepared for Danzo Shimura’s suicidal jutsu. As expected, things had gone just as he anticipated.
“While he’s not among the strongest Kage-level shinobi, he is undoubtedly one of the most troublesome.”

“Uchiha Fugaku, I have to admit your clan’s Sharingan is indeed useful. I’ve decided—I’ll be taking your Mangekyō Sharingan.”
Danzo Shimura’s eyes burned with desire as he stared at Uchiha Fugaku.
The reason he had access to Izanagi was due to Uchiha Shisui having stolen the forbidden secrets of the Sharingan and delivering them to the Third Hokage. From there, Danzo’s spies within the ANBU stole the technique and brought it to him.

Screams of agony echoed one after another. Under the relentless barrage of Fire-Style ninjutsu, one Root shinobi after another was incinerated.
Their numbers quickly dropped—now barely more than thirty remained.

Danzo Shimura, barely managing to block the surprise attack from behind, looked back with a grim expression. Rage surged like a tidal wave in his heart.

"Lord Danzo!"
Danzo Shimura crashed to the ground, crawling up in a disheveled mess. His clothes were torn and riddled with holes.
Several Root shinobi quickly rushed forward to shield him, forming a protective barrier.
"You’ve already transplanted Hashirama’s cells."
Uchiha Fugaku cast a cold glance toward Danzo.
The Wood Release jutsu Danzo had used earlier made it clear—he had transplanted the cells of Hashirama Senju.

Perhaps to celebrate the birth of a new team, that very evening, Shuyan took the lead in organizing a casual dinner at the Star Emperor Grand Hotel.

"A fierce and exhilarating" battle had ended and to be honest, Shuyan felt a little disappointed.
The Diamond Mammoth's defense and strength were undoubtedly top-tier, but in front of him, it was nothing more than a moving sandbag.
As for the others, aside from Luo Qinghan’s spiritual attribute, only Qian Gu Yueyin earned a sliver of his respect.

As Shuyan’s voice fell, three more figures suddenly appeared on the spacious arena.
Chen Ming and Wang Lin both had the optimal configuration of two yellow and two purple spirit rings. Their Flame Lion and Black Tiger martial spirits respectively possessed their bodies, surging with powerful auras as fire and darkness intertwined. Without hesitation, they charged fiercely toward Shuyan.
Behind them, a burly man with a simple appearance and towering stature—over two meters tall...

Perhaps sensing something strange in Shuyan’s gaze, Luo Qinghan slowly turned her wheelchair. She subtly adjusted the hem of her dress, just as she was about to speak—only for a figure clad in a golden gown to step in front of her.
Shuyan withdrew his gaze, somewhat surprised, but his attention was...

The Blood Sea Demon Flood Dragon, with the bearing of a sovereign, looked down disdainfully at the Mandrake Snake with its vertical scarlet pupils. If it had been a beast of equal cultivation, it might have dared to fight to the death—but as a mere snake, the Mandrake didn't even have the will to resist.
Its serpentine body trembled as it slithered backward. The once proud, high-lifted head now lowered itself to the ground, not daring to meet those blood-red vertical pupils.

Rabbit Kicks the Hawk.
Simply put, this move follows the same principle as the saying “a cornered rabbit will bite.” When facing a predator and about to be caught, the rabbit suddenly stops or twists its body, arches its back, and uses its powerful hind legs to kick the pursuer in a sudden burst.
Xiao Wu’s description of this Soft Bone Rabbit technique was much more detailed. She explained that it relies on the flexible thoracic spine for support—

As long as they can endure or reduce incoming damage, they're considered a good tank.”
