Chapter 869: Sasuke, You Don't Want to Open Your Sharingan, Right?
One-on-One Battle!
Tang Ping's true form and the Death God clone join forces to take on the Eternal God in a duel.
"You're the only one who can call yourself a god!"
With his hand seals complete, he slams his palm onto the blood-red statue.
This isn't an attack but a form of sealing.
He can't bear to harm it, after all, it's his own creation.
He must obtain it intact.
If the goal were to eliminate the opponent, there would be no need for such complexity. As the Eternal God descended, a single surprise attack with the Death God clone would have been sufficient to send him to his demise.
After continuously reviving the Archbishop dozens of times, he finally stops.
The flame is too overpowering! Within seconds, it can turn everything to ashes. Even with dozens of revivals, it only takes a few minutes.
As for the others?
They don't possess the Archbishop's immortal body, and they all fall, turning into corpses.
It's not that Tang Ping attacked them.
They were caught in the aftermath of the Eternal God's attack and instantly met their end.
All of them died at the hands of the deity they worshipped. One wonders if they would lose their faith if they knew the truth.
However, it's unlikely.
In the Shinobi World, faith is not a matter of life and death, yet it surpasses it.
Even if they had to sacrifice their lives for their faith, they would have no regrets.
This atmosphere is beneficial for Tang Ping.
He might even restrict technology instead of promoting it universally.
After all, he understands that as technology advances, faith naturally declines.
He relies on faith for sustenance; he can't very well destroy his own livelihood.
He came to the Shinobi World to enjoy himself, not to be a saint. This approach is perfectly normal.
The Shinobi World has survived for thousands of years in this manner, and no one has blamed the Six Paths Sage or anyone else. It's unreasonable to blame him for not advancing technology.
Tang Ping's mind wanders because of his intervention. The Death God clone has extracted a pitch-black... worm? from the statue.
So, the so-called Eternal God's true form is a worm, almost making Tang Ping laugh out loud.
Now it makes sense why this deity can grant immortality to its followers while having such an abysmal intellect.
Even among gods, the Death God and the Eternal God differ in intelligence, let alone their abilities.
The Death God's tiny claws drag the massive Eternal God, resembling a giant python, creating a chilling scene.
Despite the Eternal God's struggles, the Death God's small claws firmly hold on without loosening their grip.
It's safe to say that a regular battle would have been far more complex.
But in a soul confrontation, once defeated, redemption becomes nearly impossible.
Just like Orochimaru, after being countered by Sasuke, could only retreat to a corner of the soul, seeking a chance to turn the tables.
However, Tang Ping won't give the Eternal God any chance to recover.
He plans to use its body as material to create items that enhance the soul or spirit power, as well as extraordinary organs and potions.
In a short time, he has already thought of numerous uses for it.
One could say that a deity's body is a treasure.
In the Shinobi World, the number of deities isn't excessive, as most have been reduced to ashes by Kaguya-sama. Otherwise, Tang Ping would have considered capturing more.
"Everyone, leave none alive!"
After capturing his prey, Tang Ping issues the order.
He's no saint; he won't show mercy to these heretics who treat people as disposable. He strikes with full force.
Following his command, Tsukuyuki Hyuga and the other five begin the slaughter.
They won't hold back against these people.
This is the moment for Ming Zi to shine.
Lightning God Technique! It's perfectly suited for this scattered pursuit scenario.
She's worth a dozen people, effortlessly catching up to and eliminating any escapees.
Blood flows like a river!
After thoroughly dealing with them, Tang Ping retrieves the scroll sealing the blood-red statue, turns his back to the altar, and casts a sky-blue flame.
Let the flame purify everything! As the flame descends, it ignites everything in its path.
The altar, the bodies... everything would be burned to ashes.
Even if ninjas came to investigate, they wouldn't find any clues, only knowing that this place had been scorched by a fire.
On the return journey, everyone was curious about the doll-like clone on Tang Ping's shoulder.
The clone was playing with a worm-like shadow in its hand, using its tiny claws.
"What is it doing?"
Ming Zi asked curiously.
She couldn't tell what the Death God clone was up to.
Everyone in the group knew about this clone of Tang Ping, as he never intended to keep it a secret.
"It's using the soul to search for the hidden location of the body!" Tang Ping explained.
This time, they had only captured the 'consciousness' of the Undying God, and its physical body was still out there.
The Death God, by nature, was a being without a physical form.
But the Undying God was different; its true form was that of a worm, and it did possess a physical body.
Finding the location of its body wasn't too difficult.
They could easily use the connection between the soul and the body to track it down.
This task could be left to the Death Gods, who could simply follow the feedback to locate the body.
Just like now, their direction of travel wasn't back to the Hot Springs Pavilion, but towards the physical body of the Undying God.
"Oh, I see!"
Ming Zi glanced at Tang Ping's shoulder and then fell silent.
Tracking a body through the soul indeed sounded unbelievable, but they had witnessed it today.
With their ninja speed, they didn't need much time to reach their destination.
"No way..."
Several girls frowned.
Before them was a swamp of rotting land with an astonishing stench.
The smell was overwhelming!
It was enough to deter anyone with a sense of smell from getting close.
If not for Tang Ping leading the way, the group would never have approached; they could endure hardships, but that didn't mean they wanted to.
"Sasuke, it's up to you and Chong Wu. The body is down there!"
Tang Ping pointed to the depths of the swamp.
His meaning was clear—he wanted them to retrieve the Undying God's body.
In the group, Tang Ping didn't want to involve the girls, like Hyuga Tsukuyuki, in such a task, so he turned to Ergouzi.
"But..."
Ergouzi looked at the swamp, which not only had a pungent odor but was also filled with debris. He wanted to resist a little.
Before he could speak, Tang Ping placed a hand on his shoulder and said,
"Sasuke, don't you want to unlock your Sharingan?"
Yes, the other party needed his help to unlock their Sharingan, so he had him cornered.
Besides, hadn't he said that he was willing to pay any price for revenge?
Now, it was just a matter of retrieving something from the swamp; it wasn't a matter of life or death.
After speaking, Tang Ping was the first to turn and leave the swamp.
After all, the worm-like body without consciousness was like a plant worm, and there was no danger. Ergouzi and Chong Wu could definitely bring it out.
As for whether they could pull it out, that wasn't a problem either.
Even if Sasuke's strength wasn't sufficient, there was still Chong Wu, so there was no need to worry.
Therefore, Tang Ping calmly prepared a picnic with Hyuga Tsukuyuki and the others.
With storage scrolls, they had everything they needed, from utensils to seasonings.
Ingredients were no problem for ninjas, and they quickly caught a wild boar.
When Sasuke and Chong Wu, like laborers, used tree bark ropes to drag out a hundred-meter-long, thick, black worm from the swamp and arrived at Tang Ping's temporary campsite, they saw the tent, campfire, and plates of prepared ingredients, both meat and vegetables.
Tang Ping always ensured his own comfort.
"Sit down!"
Tang Ping placed a bottle of 'beverage' on a small side table and invited Sasuke and Chong Wu to sit.
And so, the picnic began.
