Chapter 1136: Never Shake

After the crisis was resolved, everyone cheered. Minato walked to Naruto, patted his shoulder, and said with relief: "Naruto, you did a great job, I'm proud of you." Naruto grinned, scratched his head and said: "Hehe, thanks to dad for reminding me."

Qi Junhen and the old man also came forward and thanked Minato and Naruto. The old man sighed and said, "If you hadn't arrived in time, the consequences would have been disastrous." Minato smiled and waved his hand, "It is our responsibility to protect everyone."

At this time, a mysterious light suddenly appeared in the sky, and a mysterious man slowly fell down. Everyone became alert, and Minato stood in front of everyone. The mysterious man said, "Don't be nervous, I'm here to thank you. I am the patron saint of this land. The villain has been trying to destroy the balance here. Now you have helped me solve the big trouble." As he spoke, a bead emitting soft light appeared in the mysterious man's hand, "This bead can enhance your strength. Just consider it as my thank you gift." Everyone accepted the bead, and the mysterious man turned into light and disappeared. With the joy of victory, everyone embarked on a new journey. However, not long after they moved forward, a strange atmosphere quietly enveloped them. Suddenly, a group of mysterious ninjas poured out from all directions and surrounded them. The leading ninja sneered, "Hand over the bead, otherwise you can't leave." Minato frowned and protected everyone, while Naruto clenched his fists with a firm look in his eyes. When the two sides were on the verge of a fight, the mysterious ninja took the lead in launching an attack. Minato quickly performed the Flying Thunder God Technique and shuttled through the enemy group. Naruto also turned on the Nine-Tails mode and fought fiercely with the enemy. Just when the battle was stalemate, the bead suddenly emitted a strong light, which enveloped everyone, and their strength was instantly greatly improved. Everyone took advantage of the situation to fight back, and the mysterious ninja retreated step by step. In the end, all the enemies were repelled. Everyone realized that the power of this bead was far beyond imagination, and their next journey might become more challenging because of this bead, but they were fearless and continued to move forward towards the unknown. After walking for a while, an ancient castle appeared in front of them. The castle exuded a gloomy atmosphere, as if hiding countless secrets. Naruto said excitedly: "Maybe there are more clues about this bead in the castle." Everyone looked at each other and decided to enter the castle to find out. As soon as they stepped into the castle, the heavy door closed with a "boom", and the torches around suddenly lit up, illuminating the strange murals on the wall. The murals depicted the disaster brought by the beads, and everyone's hearts tightened. At this time, the ground began to shake, and a group of skeleton soldiers emerged from underground. Minato immediately performed ninjutsu, summoning water to attack the skeleton soldiers, while Naruto used Rasengan to hit the enemy. But the skeleton soldiers continued to come, and just when everyone was a little overwhelmed, the beads glowed again, and a mysterious force was injected into everyone's body. They once again burst out with powerful fighting power and eliminated all the skeleton soldiers. Everyone continued to go deeper into the castle, not knowing what challenges were waiting for them. They came to a huge hall with a glowing sarcophagus in the center. Naruto was about to get closer to check, when suddenly black rays of light shot out from the sarcophagus, trapping everyone in an invisible cage. The light kept shrinking, squeezing everyone's bodies. Just when everyone felt desperate, the beads emitted a dazzling light, forming a layer of shield to block the squeezing of the black light.

At this time, the sarcophagus slowly opened, and a ghost in a black robe slowly floated out. The ghost laughed grimly and said, "Do you think you can break my plan with this bead? Too naive!" After that, the ghost waved his hands, and countless phantoms appeared around and rushed towards everyone. Everyone fought hard inside the shield, but the phantoms became more and more.

At the critical moment, the bead shone brightly and turned into a huge energy wave, shattering all the phantoms. Seeing this, the ghost's face changed and he wanted to escape. Naruto rushed forward and hit the ghost with the Rasengan. The ghost screamed and dissipated into the air.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and continued to explore the castle. They knew that there might be more unknown dangers waiting for them ahead.
