The New Uzumaki Legend of Naruto

Chapter 223 The Forgotten Land

Mifune looked at the closed door of the temple and shook his head with regret:

"No one can understand the way of Senior Shi Chen, and in the end, even until the death of Senior, no one could find a suitable successor.

"After Senior Shitō passed away, there are still countless warriors who want to obtain the Sword of Sudden Sword, but no one can get close to the sword. Even I can't get within 5 meters of it."

"What's so wonderful about getting close to this sword?"

When Quan heard Mifune approaching within five meters of Sudden Sword, his eyes lit up and he asked curiously.

Mifune looked her over carefully. He had only suspected it before, but now he was sure that the person who took the sword was the little girl in front of him.

After praising him in his heart, Mifune said with sincerity:

"You must be careful with that sword. It is said that Senior Shi Chen put all his life's understanding into the sword.

"Anyone who comes within ten meters of that sword will fall into the illusion of time. It only takes one step, but it seems like a whole life has passed."

As he said this, Mifune looked reminiscing, and his face seemed to have a lot of wrinkles:

"Most people have difficulty taking one step. If they are obsessed with illusions and cannot extricate themselves, they will immediately turn into withered bones. And the closer they are to the sword, the harder it is to break free from the shackles of time...

"Sigh... I only took five steps back then, and I thought that if I took another step, I would fall into the abyss, and finally chose to give up."

"I'm more interested in this sword now."

Quan raised his eyebrows, and the light in his eyes became a little brighter.

She glanced at Menma, then eagerly floated forward, hovering three meters away from the door.

Quan pushed his palm forward and pointed his fingers slightly open, aiming at the wooden door that was mostly covered by snow.

"Squeak!"

Under the repulsive force of the Samsara Eye, the two wooden doors that were originally covered by layers of snow steadily opened back, and even the snow in front of the door faded to both sides, revealing the earthy brown mud beneath them.

Mifune stood there and watched Quan open the door, his expression actually relieved.

Seeing his appearance, Menma smiled and said:

"She is the strongest swordsman in the Kingdom of Whirlpool!"

When Izumi, who had his back to Menma, heard these words, a shallow dimple appeared on his round face, and he took his hand back.

Mifune no longer had any worries at this point, took a deep breath and walked into the hospital along the soft mud under his feet.

"The open space when you enter is where Senior Shi Chen had sword fights with others. I also lost here back then."

Although the courtyard had been dilapidated for many years and was still covered with thick snow everywhere, the scene in front of him still sharply brought back Mifune's memories from many years ago.

He blinked, a trace of nostalgia slowly creeping onto his old face.

To the west of the open space is a low bungalow. The doors and windows are closed, rustling in the wind and snow.

It can be seen through the papered windows that the layout in the house still maintains its original appearance:

There is a wooden table in the middle, with a few round chairs, a narrow bed placed against the wall, and a half-person-high wooden cabinet standing next to the end of the bed, and nothing else.

Opposite the low house to the west is a simple bamboo shed, with a half-meter-high stone tablet standing underneath. At this time, salt-like white snow covers it, making it difficult to distinguish the specific content.

Mifune recalled the layout of the courtyard and explained to Menma Izumi:

"The wing to the west was the old man's residence during his lifetime, so we can't disturb it. The east wing was originally a servant room, but it was demolished at the old man's order and is now the old man's cemetery."

He took a few steps forward, walked around the square tripod where incense was once offered, looked at the more than ten meters high hall in front of him and said with respect:

"The Buddha statues of the past, present and future Buddhas are enshrined here, and the Sudden Sword is placed here."

While Mifune was talking, the other three people also gathered at the entrance of the hall, looking inside with curiosity.

The three pairs of doors of the main hall were abnormally open, but the bad weather outside seemed to have nothing to do with the inside of the hall, and there was no trace of erosion by wind and snow at all inside.

Under the naked eyes of the four people, the three giant Buddhas sitting cross-legged in the hall seemed to come to life.

The Buddha in the past had a withered face, shabby clothes, and his plump lips moved as if he was recounting the sufferings of the past.

Now the Buddha is dressed in gorgeous clothes, equipped with jewelry and jewelry, and has a kind smile on his face that seems to be describing the beauty of the present.

The Future Buddha is hidden in a layer of thick gray mist, and its appearance cannot be clearly seen or guessed.

However, most of everyone's attention fell on a table in front of the three Buddha statues. A rather simple-looking knife stand stood alone on it, with a long silver-gray knife placed horizontally on the stand.

The handle of the long knife is engraved with the sun and moon patterns, but the blade is very strange. Both sides are equally wide but have no blade. The tip of the knife is not pointed but flat. The whole body is more like a sword ruler than a long knife.

If you look carefully, you will also find that the blade is engraved with circles of dense and strange carvings, and each piece has a different shape.

The front and back of the blade and back add up to 365 pieces, plus the "leap" pattern on the blade, the total is 366 pieces, symbolizing every day of the year.

Whether it was the Third Buddha or the carvings on the Sudden Sword, they were all clearly presented in Menma's field of vision.

After a moment, he closed his eyes slightly and took in the scene in the hall. When he opened his eyes again, his blue eyes were calm, and he spoke to Quan:

"A 10-meter circular area with the center of the Sudhu Sword is shrouded in the barrier created by it. The barrier is shrouded in a layer of gray mist invisible to the naked eye. The closer to the sword, the thicker the mist becomes.

"I think this should be a test for those who come after me."

While Menma was talking, Izumi also opened his samsara eyes and stared at everything in the hall.

About 5 minutes later, she seemed to have figured out something and suddenly laughed softly. Izumi blinked and asked Menma playfully:

"Which one is stronger or weaker, that Toki-senpai or Menma-sama?"

"I don't know who is stronger than him, but the barrier here can't do anything to me. It's just that time and space have always been weird and abnormal, so you should still be careful."

Mifune and Uesugi Gen on the side heard Menma's proud answer and looked at him in shock.

To be able to say such words in front of the main hall, Menma's strength must be higher than the two expected. Mifune and Gen Uesugi had a hard time even understanding the scenes in the main hall, let alone entering to get the sword.

If Mifune from 20 years ago still had the strength to advance, but for him who is old and frail, a random burst of gray energy could be fatal.

The smile on Quan's face became even bigger, and he said confidently:

"Then what do I have to fear? I have the eyes of samsara to see the way forward for me, and Master Menma will protect my way out. I am bound to win this trip!"

Under the gazes of Menma and the others, Izumi took a step forward into the hall with a light body.
