Chapter 136 - Chapter 136: The Sage of Six Paths is a good person

Chakra soul body, death god, impurities, breaking apart...

Orochimaru's heart stirred. This free lunch really wasn't so easy to eat. There might be poison mixed in, or maybe even crap.

To want to simply rely on the Pure Land to complete a transformation and gain an eternal soul, the price to pay would probably be much higher than imagined.

The current death god should be considered a different person compared to the one from long ago.

Orochimaru immediately gave up the idea of using the Sage of Six Paths as a back door. But he was also wondering why the Sage of Six Paths created Ootsuki soldiers, but didn't let these powerful souls awaken.

Active and passive, just one word difference, but the effects produced are worlds apart.

Orochimaru pondered for a while and asked about this doubt.

The genie shrugged. "Who knows? How would I know what the Sage of Six Paths is thinking? You should go ask him yourself."

Orochimaru's mouth twitched. Ask the Sage of Six Paths himself? Wouldn't that be throwing himself into a trap?

"You can't ask, but you want to know. Then you should try to guess...ah, no, to figure it out."

The genie showed a faint smile. "Don't think you know nothing about the Sage of Six Paths. Aren't you very familiar with the personalities of his direct descendants, the Senju and Uchiha clans?"

Orochimaru's heart stirred. Hearing the genie mention these two clans, two figures immediately appeared in his mind.

--Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.

These two can be said to be the representatives of the Senju and Uchiha clans in the last hundred years.

And the more powerful such families with inherited bloodlines are, the more similar they are to their ancestors. Looking at their personalities, it might actually be possible to see some things about the Sage of Six Paths.

Orochimaru pondered slightly.

There's no need to talk about Senju Hashirama. The information passed down in Konoha, the battlefield remains that can be examined in the ninja world... all reveal his strength and his kindness.

Orochimaru didn't know much about Uchiha Madara, but he knew quite a few Uchiha clan members, and the impression they gave Orochimaru was...

Stubborn, obsessive, self-satisfied...

What would such a person do after having power that no one could resist?

A trace of bright light flashed in Orochimaru's eyes. He suddenly remembered the 'Mugen Tsukuyomi' that the genie had mentioned, that impossible plan.

--Eliminate conflict and send everyone into a dream.

"What the Sage of Six Paths is doing is the same as Uchiha Madara's 'Mugen Tsukuyomi' plan."

Orochimaru looked at the genie and said slowly, "It's just that because he had more kindness, he didn't attack living people."

Even if people can't be reborn after death, it's still a comfort to the pain they were born with to be able to find happiness in a dream.

From this perspective, the soul bodies that are qualified to transform into Ootsuki soldiers are no different from the lower-level materials. It's just that the dream lasts for different lengths of time.

The genie was a little surprised. "Seeing this scene, you still seem to have some good feelings about the Sage of Six Paths."

Orochimaru shook his head. "I wouldn't call it good feelings yet. But if there were no Pure Land of the Sage of Six Paths, what would be the fate of these Chakra soul bodies?"

The genie was slightly stunned, and then said, "They would probably just disappear directly into the ninja world. Even Uchiha Madara's soul body, without a physical body to rely on, is just water without a source or a tree without roots, and would be worn away by the natural forces."

"You see, then they wouldn't even have a beautiful dream."

Orochimaru glanced at the genie. "Even if it's to create soldiers, it would be more efficient to let them be awake and devour and kill each other. But now, this place can still be considered a Pure Land."

Of course, that's what he said, but he wouldn't show any mercy when it came to absorbing soul energy here.

Although the Sage of Six Paths had good intentions, this Pure Land was really unfriendly to people like Orochimaru. He didn't want the happiness in the dream, and his own body was very different from the Ootsuki, so the end would just be being worn away into nothing by time.

The goal set before must be carried out, and this would undoubtedly affect the order established by the Sage of Six Paths.

Orochimaru licked his lips. "If I absorb soul energy on a large scale here, he won't notice, will he?"

"What if he notices? You can explain it, beg him more, maybe he'll be kind enough to let you go..."

The genie showed a sly smile, made fun of Orochimaru, and then said, "Don't worry, as long as you don't go too far, the Sage of Six Paths will definitely not notice you."

He pointed to the upper level and smiled, "The Sage of Six Paths' soul body is sleeping, and his consciousness is not in the Pure Land. In other words, he's not home."

"Not in the Pure Land? Then where is he?" Orochimaru was shocked. "Why did the Sage of Six Paths leave the Pure Land?"

"What's so strange about that?" The genie spread his hands. "There's nothing in the Pure Land, it's so simple and boring. Before becoming a sage, the Sage of Six Paths was still a person. If he stayed in the Pure Land for too long, he would also be lonely. He's not like the death god, a defective product with incomplete intelligence."

Indra and Ashura, those two dog sons, can be reborn and reincarnated countless times, so it's even easier for their father.

He can even leave his soul body in the Pure Land, absorb soul power to grow, and let his consciousness wander around the ninja world.

The genie said it easily, but Orochimaru was shocked and exclaimed, "Then where would he be?"

Although he doesn't like to excessively kill innocent people, the number of people he has killed, the number of ninja he has killed, and the number of bodies lying on his experiment bed, is not small.

The thought of the Sage of Six Paths' human form being accidentally sent back to the Pure Land by him made him uneasy.

The Sage of Six Paths is not like Indra and Ashura, who are reborn as blank slates and unable to even preserve their consciousness. He also has unbelievable power.

The genie raised his index finger to his lips. "Shh... keep it down. Leaving aside the Sage of Six Paths for now, don't disturb other people's beautiful dreams."

Orochimaru saw the trembling eyes of the Third Kazekage and his heart tightened.

The key to undoing the illusion is to disrupt the flow of Chakra. They are now Chakra soul bodies, so it couldn't be easier to do that.

Of course, even if it's undone, they would probably fall back into it soon under the constant illusion effects in the Pure Land.

But even so, Orochimaru didn't dare to speak, not because he was afraid of the Third Kazekage waking up, but because he was afraid of the Sage of Six Paths, even the sleeping Sage of Six Paths.

The genie shrugged. "Actually, there's nothing to be afraid of. Returning to the Pure Land is like going home for the Sage of Six Paths. He wouldn't hold this against you."

Although Orochimaru felt that the genie's words were nonsense, he really didn't recognize the Sage of Six Paths' methods, so he could only put the matter aside and begin to meditate.

Thanks to the breathing method and the practice of Senjutsu, Orochimaru quickly entered a meditative state, and a stream of pure air entered his soul body like a spring.

All his previous injuries began to heal, and his presence became more solid.

"You absorb it here first, and I'll go say hello to your main body."
