Chapter 346 Time Acceleration, Stopping, Chapter Reversal
Beneath the small divine tree of the ancestral star, tiny fireflies drifted down from the emerald green leaves, like stars scattered across the ground.
The sacred tree's thick trunk requires dozens of people to encircle it.
Uchiha Mitsunori leaned against a tree trunk, playing with Kaguya Otsutsuki's silver hair in his arms, his eyes filled with tenderness.
Kaguya Otsutsuki leaned against his chest, her eyes filled with tenderness, the haughtiness and aloofness of the goddess of the rabbit long gone.
"Sanfeng, your divine tree has grown to over nine hundred meters tall, and it's only one step away from maturity."
"The mature Divine Tree has many hidden abilities, such as consciousness sharing and energy conversion. Try communicating with it using chakra; you might be able to unlock new skills."
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Mitsunori straightened up from the tree trunk and raised his hand to inject a wisp of chakra into the Divine Tree.
Pale golden chakra spread along the veins, the tree trunk trembled slightly, and the leaves rustled softly, as if responding to his call.
Just as the chakra was about to reach the tree core, a transparent phantom suddenly darted out from a crack in the tree trunk.
The phantom was shrouded in dark purple resentment, like a distorted cloud of mist!
"Uchiha Mitsurugi! Kaguya Otsutsuki! You two damned bastards! I curse you to a horrible death! The Otsutsuki clan will not let you get away with this!"
Urashiki Ōtsutsuki's soul was insane, surrounded by an intense, overwhelming resentment.
Uchiha Mitsunori's eyes instantly turned cold. His previously relaxed body suddenly tensed up, and he raised his right hand sharply. Dark golden soul-snatching chains condensed from his palm, each section of the chain gleaming with a cold light. As soon as it appeared, it carried a bone-chilling coldness.
"Splash..."
The soul-snatching chains swirled in the air, making a crisp sound, while a chilling wind howled and swirled around them, instantly binding the soul of Ōtsutsuki Urashiki.
"Dead, yet you still want to come out and cause trouble?"
With a sudden jerk of his wrist, Uchiha Mitsunori's hook pierced the soul, causing Otsutsuki Urashiki's soul to twist into a ball, and his shrill screams echoed all around!
"Ah... my soul... it hurts so much... what the hell is this?!"
Kaguya Otsutsuki frowned as she stood up, her gaze falling on the Soul-Snatching Chains. She asked with some curiosity, "Mitsumine, this weapon of yours is specifically designed to counter souls; it's quite interesting. Why haven't I seen you use it before?"
She stretched out her fingertip and gently touched the Soul-Hook Lock, feeling a chilling sensation on her skin.
"I obtained it from the core of the underworld when I opened up the ancestral star's underworld."
Uchiha Mitsunori responded calmly, his gaze fixed on Otsutsuki Urashiki's soul to prevent any unusual movement: "Keeping his soul alive will only cause trouble. He already knows so many secrets; if the Otsutsuki clan senses this and reveals the location of their ancestral star, it will cause unexpected problems."
Kaguya Otsutsuki nodded slightly, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes, her tone also carrying a touch of contempt: "Just a member of a branch family, yet his soul is incredibly stubborn. Even though he's already dead, he still clings to the fantasy of 'revenge,' how laughable. I could have completely eliminated him without using my All-Killing Ash Bones, leaving no hidden dangers."
"Let me handle this; I have a better way to handle it!"
Golden light emanated from Uchiha Sanfeng's palm, and his golden Rinnegan with six tomoe suddenly shone brightly, revealing a black spatial rift that unfolded before him.
On the other side of the crack was a hellish scene of churning, scorching magma. A huge black millstone floated above the magma, its surface engraved with eerie patterns. When it turned, it made a terrifying "creaking" sound, and even the air seemed to tremble.
At this moment, the soul of Ōtsutsuki Urashiki, looking at the scene in the crack, instantly stopped its frenzied roar, and its soul began to tremble uncontrollably.
He finally realized his fear and pleaded in a tearful voice, "No! No! Lord Mimine, Lady Kaguya! I was wrong! I shouldn't have coveted the Divine Tree, I shouldn't have thought of taking revenge on you! Please, please spare me! I'm willing to be your slave, even if it's just as the lowest servant!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Uchiha Mitsumine flicked his wrist, dragging Urashiki's soul with him, and threw it into the Hell Rift like trash.
"It's too late to beg for mercy now."
The soul of Ōtsutsuki Urashiki was instantly absorbed onto the surface of the black millstone the moment it came into contact with it.
"Ah...!!!...My soul...it hurts so much!"
A mournful wail came from the crack, and as the millstone turned, Urashiki Ōtsutsuki's soul was crushed bit by bit, with pale purple fragments of his soul flying everywhere.
Soon, a faint golden light suddenly appeared on the surface of the millstone.
Those rays of light were peeled off from the fragments of the soul, condensing into several thin strands of light that drifted slowly in the air, emitting "special" fluctuations of law.
"That is... a mark of the laws of time..."
Kaguya Ōtsutsuki's pupils suddenly contracted, and she instinctively grabbed Mitsunori's arm: "Mitsunori, look! That's a mark of the laws of time! I never imagined this ancient black millstone had such a function!"
At this moment, in the millstone underworld, the wails of Urashiki Ōtsutsuki could no longer be heard; only the creaking sound of the black millstone turning remained. Clearly, Urashiki's soul had been completely crushed, leaving not even a trace.
"The threat of Ōtsutsuki Urashiki has been resolved. Next, I need to improve my strength as soon as possible."
Uchiha Mitsunaga stretched out his hand, and his golden Rinnegan released a soft light as he carefully peeled the golden marks from the energy flow of the millstone.
The mark condensed into a small ball of light in the air, radiating the fluctuations of the law of "time reversal".
It is one of the abilities of Urashiki Otsutsuki's blue Rinnegan that allows him to rewind time by a few seconds.
Looking at the ball of light in his hand, Uchiha Mitsunori's lips curled up slightly, and his eyes flashed with surprise: "In the past, I obtained the law mark of time stop from Otsutsuki Isshiki, and with the time acceleration I have mastered myself, now that I have absorbed this mark of time reversal, I have already mastered three time-related abilities."
He raised his hand and brought the ball of light to his eyes. The ball of light pulsated gently in his palm, as if responding to his chakra, and slowly merged into his body.
The moment this time-reversal mark entered the body, a wealth of information about the laws of time flooded the mind, manifesting in various strange phenomena.
Time Acceleration: Accelerates the target or area, requiring a large amount of chakra.
Time Stop: Freezes the target or area for a significant amount of time, requiring a large amount of chakra.
Time Rewind: Allows the user to go back 6 seconds.
A moment later, he opened his eyes, a golden light flashing in them. The light of the golden Rinnegan was even more dazzling and majestic than before, giving off an aura that was impossible to look directly at.
"My understanding of the laws of time is now at least twice as thorough as before. Although my mastery of each ability is still relatively shallow, given time, I should be able to unleash greater power."
Kaguya Otsutsuki walked to his side and exclaimed sincerely, "Mitsubone, you've grown stronger so quickly. Time manipulation is extremely powerful even among the Otsutsuki clan. You've mastered three types in just a few decades; even the geniuses of the main clan can't match that speed. Once you fully control these abilities, we'll have a better chance of winning when facing the Otsutsuki main clan in the future."
With his left arm around Kaguya Otsutsuki's soft, delicate body, Uchiha Mitsunori was in high spirits: "Kaguya, are you praising me? Haha, as your husband, I'll be so proud... hahaha..."
He gently raised his hand and closed the rift leading to hell, as if shutting out all his troubles and fears behind him.
Then, his gaze fell on Kaguya Otsutsuki's exquisite body, his eyes revealing tenderness and love.
"Kaguya, the little divine tree is still unstable. Please keep a close eye on its growth and notify me immediately if anything unusual happens."
Upon hearing this, Kaguya Otsutsuki frowned slightly, revealing a hint of dissatisfaction. She thought to herself: At a time like this, the three peaks are still thinking about the Divine Tree and cultivation. How infuriating!
With a slightly aggrieved look in her eyes, she complained coquettishly, "Sanfeng, what have you been busy with lately? You haven't spent any time with me properly in ages!"
As she spoke, she gently shook Sanfeng's arm, her silver hair cascading down like a waterfall, carrying a faint fragrance.
Looking at Kaguya Otsutsuki's coquettish appearance, a warm feeling welled up in Uchiha Mitsunori's heart.
The chill that had just spread from the underworld was instantly dispelled, replaced by warmth and love.
He gently pulled Kaguya Otsutsuki into his arms, his hand softly stroking her back: "Kaguya, I neglected your feelings. I was just trying to get stronger as quickly as possible! Now that Urashiki's matter is resolved and the Divine Tree is temporarily stable, I'll accompany you to explore different parts of the ancestral planet. I'll take you to see the sea of clouds, the volcanoes, and the Crystal Valley we discovered earlier."
Kaguya Otsutsuki let out a soft hum, then nestled obediently in his broad embrace.
Her cheek gently pressed against his chest, feeling his warmth and heartbeat, as if time had stood still at that moment.
A few seconds later, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, her eyes filled with a mixture of shyness and anticipation, murmured softly, "Mitsumine... kiss me..."
Uchiha Mitsunori looked down at her in his arms and saw that her cheeks were flushed like the sunset, making her beautiful and charming.
He smiled indulgently, slowly lowered his head, and kissed her lips.
As their lips met, their breathing gradually became rapid.
The surrounding chakra began to surge, and with a flash of pale blue light, the two figures instantly disappeared under the divine tree and appeared in the ancestral star's sleeping quarters.
Kaguya's bedchamber was resplendent in gold, and the air was filled with a faint fragrance of flowers.
Kaguya Otsutsuki leaned against him, a shy blush creeping across her face: "Mitsumine... I need you... to help me with my training..."
