I just returned to Konoha and found that all my clan members were gone.

"I've already said that although the White Snake Immortal wants to see you in person, only those who pass the test can receive the power."

Princess Ichikishima used the reverse summoning technique to bring Hongdou to a dark and damp cave, where no sunlight could get in, making it a very suitable place for snakes to survive.

As long as you pass the test of the White Snake Sage, you can obtain the method of practicing natural energy and master the legendary immortal technique. In the ninja world, only Jiraiya can master this power.

Although she didn't have a good impression of this lecherous old man, Hongdou could not deny how powerful Jiraiya was. As long as she could pass the test of the White Snake Sage, she would be able to master the same power.

Having already benefited from the natural energy of the curse, Hongdou would definitely not let go of this opportunity.

Just after entering the cave and taking a few steps forward, I saw a magnificent palace with a plaque on the gate engraved with some large, glittering words.

Ryongchi Cave

Ichikishima-hime looked at Hongdou with interest, wanting to know what her reaction would be.

It was impossible to imagine that there would be such a ostentatious palace in such a dark place. Just as Hongdou was still thinking, the door of the palace suddenly opened.

"Oh my, are there guests coming?"

After the door opened, a relatively mature girl walked out. She was dressed similarly to Ichikishima-hime, also wearing a white gown. Her green hair was also tied up, and there was a magatama-like ornament on her chest.

"Ichikishima-hime, why are you here?"

The green-haired girl covered her mouth and said when she saw that Ichikishimahime was obviously surprised.

Princess Ichikishima shook her head without giving any further explanation.

The green-haired woman seemed to understand something and gestured to Hongdou to come in without asking any extra questions.

"My name is Tian Xin Shen Ji. Since you are a guest, please come in quickly. The drinks and food are ready."

Hongdou stopped after taking a step when she heard that, and looked at the other person with a bad expression.

"Is this how Ryuchidong treats its guests?"

A trace of natural energy gathered in Hongdou's eyes, and in a blink of an eye, the magnificent palace disappeared, and the food originally placed in the palace became rotten. It turned out that it was just an illusion created by Tian Xinshen Ji.

Tian Xinshen Ji looked at Hongdou in surprise. If she was not mistaken, the other party was using natural energy, otherwise her illusion would not be broken so easily.

"Calm down, Little Red Bean. Tian Xin Shen Ji doesn't know that you are the person the White Immortal wants to see. Generally, people who come here have to go through a test first, but you don't have to."

At first, Princess Ichikijima wanted to see if Hongdou could pass the test, but she didn't expect that the other party could see through the illusion at a glance and directly tried to smooth things over.

It seems that Hongdou's mastery of natural energy is further than he imagined.

"Haha, is that so? But don't treat me like a fool."

Hongdou pretended to laugh, she was a bit carefree but she was not stupid. The seemingly mysterious Ryuchi Cave also had hidden dangers, otherwise as a contractor of Ryuchi Cave, Orochimaru would not have failed to take a look.

Seeing that Hongdou did not pursue the matter further, Princess Ichikishima took the initiative to act as a guide and began to lead Hongdou forward.

Hongdou narrowed her eyes as she watched Ichikishimahime moving. Looking carefully, she saw that her feet were always floating a few centimeters above the ground, as if she was completely floating.

Is this also the power of natural energy?

Hongdou followed the other party closely and no longer cared about Tian Xinshen Ji, but she did not let down her guard at all.

Hongdou didn't have to wait too long. She walked to the deepest part of the cave and finally saw an ordinary-looking old lady.

There was a brown-haired girl standing beside the old lady. She was sitting on a long chair, looking at Hongdou who had arrived with a kind face and a smile.

"You're finally here."

The old lady opened her mouth and spoke, it seemed that she had been waiting for a long time.

"Heh, you guys are hiding your true colors. Don't you even dare to show your true appearance to others?"

Hongdou did not look down on the other person because of his appearance. After arriving at Ryuchi Cave, she became more sensitive to the fluctuations of natural energy. The other person's seemingly old body possessed terrifying natural energy, and the appearance in front of her might just be an illusion of the other person.

Hongdou can conclude that this old lady is the white fairy.

"Oh? Has the natural energy been mastered to this extent?"

The old lady's eyes, which had been narrowed all the time, revealed a slit and she looked at Hongdou again. As expected, she could see the fluctuations of natural energy in the other person.

"White Immortal, I have something to report to you."

Princess Ichikijima rarely interrupted their conversation, took the initiative to walk up to the old lady, and whispered to her.

At first the old lady had a hostile look on her face, but as Princess Ichikishima spoke, her eyes opened wider and wider, and finally she even revealed a hint of fear.

"Are you sure you are from the Thunder Falcon clan?"

At this moment, the other party no longer cared about concealing his voice and asked directly about Ichikishima-hime.

Princess Ichikishima nodded in the affirmative.

The white immortal slumped in his seat, no longer as calm as before, and muttered to himself.

"What is the purpose of this group of guys? They have never appeared in the ninja world for thousands of years. Why would they appear at this time..."

Hongdou and the others were getting a little impatient. Ye Lan's summoned beast might be of great importance, but what did it have to do with her? She came here just to become stronger.

"Hey, are you done sighing? If there's no way for me to become stronger here, I'll leave."

At this moment, the white fairy turned his attention back to Hongdou. It had just realized that the reason why Hongdou was able to use natural energy was actually due to the seal set by Ye Lan, and it was not something it figured out on its own.

But it is rare for someone to be able to master power, and this guy seems to have some unclear relationship with Orochimaru.

Thinking of this, the White Snake Immortal's face turned a little disgusted. Although the Ten Thousand Snakes were a little irritable, they were also members of the Longdi Cave. They were usually respectful to him and did not seem like some certain guy.

Now that Wanshe has died inexplicably, Longdidong really needs to find a new spokesperson, but is Hongdou qualified?

Thinking of this, the White Snake Immortal sighed, unfortunately there was no better choice.

Don't be fooled by the appearance that the three holy places are staying out of the matter. The truth is that except for the slugs in the Wet Bone Forest, the other two are more or less paying attention to the ninja world. The current ninja world is obviously going to be in turmoil. Ryuchi Cave must at least maintain its status, even if it doesn't want to gain any benefits. For this purpose, they must find a spokesperson.

Orochimaru is no good, he is too cautious and not someone who can be fooled. So it seems that Red Bean is the only option.

Thinking of this, the white immortal did not hesitate, turned around and revealed his original appearance.

A huge white snake appeared in front of Hongdou, with a shiny cat's eye on its chest, a forehead protector made of purple silk ribbon on its head, a night-shining pearl on top of the forehead protector, and a huge pipe in its mouth.

This luxurious and domineering look was completely different from the simple and kind old lady just now. Her aura immediately stunned Hongdou.

The White Snake Fairy spoke in human language, and her overbearing tone left no room for doubt.

"If you want to gain power, you need to pay a price. Only after passing the final test can you be qualified to learn immortal arts. Are you ready?"
