Chapter 1038: Saving Space

Yin suddenly remembered that she had seen records about similar vengeful spirits in ancient books. It is said that the weakness of this kind of vengeful spirit lies in its core, which is the source of its power. As long as the core is destroyed, it can be destroyed. Yin quickly told everyone about this discovery, and everyone readjusted their tactics and began to look for the core of the vengeful spirit. Naruto rushed forward again to attract the attention of the vengeful spirit, while his companions dispersed and carefully observed the vengeful spirit's every move. Yin used her keen perception ability to capture a place on its body that was flickering with a faint light when the vengeful spirit attacked frantically. She immediately shouted: "I found the core! It's in its chest!" Everyone heard this and concentrated their firepower on the chest of the vengeful spirit. However, the vengeful spirit noticed the intentions of everyone and strengthened its defense. The chakra formed a shield to protect the core firmly. Just when everyone was at a loss, Yin had an idea and cast an illusion to disrupt the perception of the vengeful spirit. When it had a brief flaw, Naruto seized the opportunity, condensed a super-large jade Rasengan, and smashed it hard at the core of the vengeful spirit. There was a loud bang, the core was shattered, the vengeful spirits gradually dissipated, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. Just when everyone thought the crisis was over, the dissipated vengeful spirits suddenly gathered again, and they were even more powerful than before.

It turned out that what was just destroyed was just a fake core created by the vengeful spirit, and the real core was hidden deeper. Everyone's faces instantly became solemn. This time the vengeful spirit's attack was more fierce, and everyone began to find it difficult to resist. Yin was anxious and focused her mind again. Suddenly, she found a strange fluctuation in the shadow behind the vengeful spirit. "The real core is in the shadow behind it!" Yin shouted loudly. The companions quickly adjusted their strategy. Naruto attracted the main attack of the vengeful spirit in front, while Yin and other companions quietly went around behind the vengeful spirit. While Naruto launched another powerful attack, Yin and others found the right time and worked together to gather chakra into a powerful beam of light and shot it at the core in the shadow. With a violent explosion, the core was completely destroyed, and the vengeful spirit turned into a puff of black smoke and disappeared forever.

Everyone smiled at each other tiredly but relievedly. This difficult battle was finally won. At this moment, the ground suddenly began to shake violently, and a huge mysterious rune emerged from the ground. The rune flashed, and a more powerful force surged out of it. A mysterious figure shrouded in darkness slowly rose from the center of the rune. He said coldly: "Do you think that destroying the vengeful spirit is the end? Too naive." Everyone was instantly alert. They had just experienced a fierce battle and their physical strength had not yet recovered. Now they were facing a new strong enemy. The mysterious man raised his hand and waved, and countless black tentacles sprang out from the ground and attacked everyone. Naruto quickly formed a seal and used the shadow clone technique. Multiple clones rushed up to fight against the tentacles. Yin also concentrated again, trying to sense the weakness of the mysterious man. Just as Yin was trying to sense, the mysterious man seemed to have noticed her intention, and suddenly turned to Yin, shooting a black energy ray at her. At the critical moment, Naruto flashed in front of Yin and blocked the ray with a Rasengan. The other partners also cooperated, looking for the mysterious man's flaws, preparing to start a new round of battle. Just as everyone was struggling to hold on, the mysterious man suddenly laughed strangely, and his hands quickly formed seals, and the surrounding space began to distort, forming huge black holes, trying to swallow everyone.

The partners were pulled by the suction of the black hole and could not stand steadily. The situation was very critical. Yin had an idea. Thinking of the role of illusion in the previous battle with the vengeful spirit, she took a deep breath and cast a more powerful illusion to cover the mysterious man. The mysterious man was temporarily trapped in the illusion and his attack paused. Naruto took the opportunity to condense the Nine-Tails Chakra, upgraded the Rasengan to the Nine-Tails Rasengan, and smashed it hard at the mysterious man. The other partners also concentrated the remaining chakra and launched their strongest attacks. The mysterious man woke up from the illusion, but it was too late to dodge and was hit by the combined attack of everyone. His body shook a few times, and the black aura gradually dissipated, revealing his true face. It turned out to be the owner of the vengeful spirit that was destroyed before. He set up this trap for revenge. As he fell, the mysterious rune disappeared, and the ground stopped shaking. Everyone finally completely resolved the crisis and set off on the way home with their tired bodies. On the way back, Yin always felt that things were not that simple. When they passed by a quiet forest, a group of ninjas suddenly emerged from all directions and surrounded them. The ninjas had cold eyes and it was obvious that they were not friendly. The leading ninja said coldly: "Hand over the power you just got, or you can't leave."

It turns out that there is a bigger conspiracy behind the mysterious man's revenge plan. Someone covets the powerful power contained in the vengeful spirits and the mysterious man, and has been secretly monitoring them.

The companions immediately took up their fighting stances. Although their physical strength had not yet fully recovered, their eyes were determined. Naruto gathered his chakra again, and Yin was ready to cast an illusion. Just as the battle was about to break out, a huge summoned beast fell from the sky and landed in front of everyone. A mysterious old man stood on the back of the summoned beast. He shouted, "Stop it, the truth behind this is far more than what you see." Everyone stopped and looked at the old man in confusion. A new mystery is about to unfold... The mysterious old man slowly got down from the back of the summoned beast. He looked at everyone with deep eyes, "The power of the vengeful spirits and the mysterious man should not have appeared in the world. There is an ancient evil organization behind them. They are trying to use this power to achieve their ulterior motives." The ninja leader snorted coldly, "What does that have to do with us? We just want power." The old man shook his head, "If you take this power, it will undoubtedly help the evil organization. At that time, the entire ninja world will be in crisis."

Yin stepped forward, "Then what do you say we should do?" The old man looked at everyone, "I know a sealed place that can seal this power. But I need your help to fight against the possible obstruction of the evil organization." The companions looked at each other, and although they were exhausted, they nodded. The ninja leader hesitated for a moment and joined with his men. So, under the leadership of the old man, everyone headed towards the sealed place. A showdown with the evil organization was about to come. On the way to the sealed place, everyone encountered the first round of ambush by the evil organization. A group of strange ninjas rushed out from the surrounding woods, and their chakra carried a gloomy breath. Naruto rushed up first and fought fiercely with the enemy. Yin performed illusions in the back to interfere with the enemy's actions. However, the number of enemies was large and their strength should not be underestimated, and the companions gradually fell into a hard battle. At this moment, the mysterious old man performed a powerful ninjutsu, and a huge barrier protected everyone and temporarily resisted the enemy's attack. He shouted: "Everyone save your energy, don't fight too much, keep moving forward!" After hearing this, everyone regrouped and, under the leadership of the old man, broke through the enemy's encirclement. But they knew that this was just the beginning, the evil organization would not let them go easily, there would be more severe challenges waiting for them ahead, and the road to the sealed land would become more difficult and dangerous.
