Chapter 44 The Hole of Time and Space
Walking on the road to his final goal, Gen Takuno played with the Grell Stone in his hand, feeling the power contained within it.
It felt very comfortable to hold, as if a life energy was flowing into his body through it, improving and strengthening his physique. However, the speed was far too slow, almost as if there was no energy at all.
He gazed at the distant, verdant mountains, feeling neither joy nor sorrow.
His attitude toward the Timothy family was clearly different from his attitude toward Hyde, because deep down he still retained some of his previous life's concepts of good and evil.
He will try his best to obtain what he wants without killing any beings that can be generally labeled as good.
But if communication is truly impossible, he wouldn't mind resorting to violence; from the very beginning, he knew he was definitely not a good person.
In addition, there are some things that cannot be avoided. For example, if the other party is the target of his Ghost Sprout Technique, then no matter how good the other party is considered, he will still take action.
Compared to his views on good and evil, he values more whether he can become stronger.
Compared to the Timsey family, Hyde is a standard villain, and it doesn't matter to him whether they become the villains of later generations.
Trading with the other party is far less convenient than simply killing and robbing them.
"This should be the location marked on the map."
Yuan Tuoye surveyed his surroundings and confirmed that he had arrived at the location, the place that the group of wanderers passed through every year.
Even if the other party doesn't want to use the power of the Grell mine, as someone who knows about the Grell mine, he can't help but come over to make sure it hasn't been discovered by anyone before he feels at ease.
This is an unavoidable habit for guardians; some guardians even live right next to the mine to protect its safety.
Yuan Tuoye forms a hand seal.
"The Peacock's Winged Magic!"
As the materialized chakra surged from his back, it eventually formed wings behind Gen Takuya, carrying him directly into the sky.
Although the Peacock Magic cannot be used while the user is mostly unable to move, the ability to fly is certainly much more convenient.
Then, Yuan Tuoye created several shadow clones, each searching for the power fluctuations of the Grell mine in different directions.
"Peacock's Wonderful Technique - Eye!"
Purple light appeared in his eyes; his ability was to see the traces left by chakra, but he might also be able to detect the power of the Grell mine.
Yuan Tuoye planned to search for a while on his own. If he really couldn't find it, then he would go find that caravan of wandering people. At that time, he might have to resort to force.
He might be going to kidnap hostages again.
He clearly didn't like this, but this tactic was just too effective...
a few days later.
Yuan Tuoye was still searching for the Grell mine when, at that moment, a new shadow clone disbanded itself.
Instead of using the Peacock Technique to locate the power fluctuations of the Grell Mine, the opponent directly saw the gate sealing the Grell Mine.
"Hmm? That's pretty fast." Yuan Tuoye was a little surprised that it had been found in just a few days.
In this way, the group of wanderers also escaped disaster.
Then, when he saw the sealed gate of the Grell mine with his own eyes, he understood what was going on. If this thing could fly, it wouldn't be hard to find.
Its location is surrounded by mountains. Normally, people who cannot fly would not bypass these mountains, let alone climb this very steep and towering mountain.
Arriving at the sealed gate, there was no sealing technique on it. They pushed the gate open.
What comes into view is a very spacious and complex road network, constantly rising and falling, which looks a bit like a maze.
If you're a GBA player, you'd probably turn this maze upside down to make sure there are no hidden treasures before moving on to the next level.
However, Yuan Tuoye wasn't interested in this and bit his finger, pressing it to the ground.
"Spiritual communication!"
After being summoned by Gen Takuno, a large flock of crows searched for the correct path throughout this "maze".
Soon, one crow found the deepest platform, and another crow found a platform with a pattern engraved on it.
Yuan Tuoye paused for a moment, and finally came to the platform with the pattern engraved on it, looking at the pattern.
It is said that this is an ancient spiritual ritual array that can bring spirits to the Time-Space Hole, which has the ability to absorb everything without limit and can contain all things.
However, according to the original work, no one tried to remove it, so it should disappear on its own after a period of time.
It's hard to say what use this thing is; in the original story, it's just a black whirlwind.
Moreover, it didn't exhibit much gravitational pull; even Timothy, who was in the very center, was pulled away by Naruto.
Therefore, any ninja who still has the ability to resist can easily escape from the area affected by the Space-Time Hole.
It's unlikely that this thing will swallow people; at most, it'll just be a space where you can dump garbage indefinitely, and you won't be able to get it out.
Regardless, Gen Takuno still engraved it, and who knows, he might be able to use it in the future.
Moreover, he remembered that this thing seemed to be activated with the blood of the Grell royal family, so if he wanted to use it, he would have to thoroughly study the entire spirit communication ritual array, then extract this part of the spell and change the activation method.
It feels like I'm becoming less and less useful.
Yuan Tuoye sighed, feeling that the Time-Space Hole was not as useful as the ritual array itself. He could still use it to study the ancient rituals and maybe even apply it to sealing techniques.
Thinking this, after completing the ritual array for the Spirit Communication Space-Time Cave, Gen Takuno also arrived at the deepest platform.
This is where the Grell mine is sealed. In theory, he only needs to place the Grell Stone on the ritual platform over there to receive the power of the Grell mine.
But the question is, what use is a power that can only be used around the Grell mine?
Yuan Tuoye looked at the Grell Stone in his hand, which was shimmering with light and seemed to be full of energy because of the surrounding Grell mine.
After thinking for a while, he raised his head. He remembered that the Grell mine was right above this place in the original story, so he decided to let the people of ancient times see the capabilities of people in modern times.
Their power to seal the Grell mine is completely useless against current ninjutsu.
"Earth Escape!"
Yuan Tuoye's figure blended into the rock, climbing upwards until he finally reached the top and stood on the wall after bypassing the mine.
He saw the Grell mine, which resembled a vast lake, and the sheer size of it surprised him.
Perhaps its destructive power is not strong, but based on this level, it should already be at the level of a tailed beast.
Moreover, it emits a bright green light, making it look quite beautiful.
Yuan Tuoye used Earth Release to create a platform on the mine. Standing on it, he looked at the calm and beautiful lake with a thoughtful expression in his eyes.
How exactly should he utilize the Grell mine?
