Chapter 340: The Eternal Orochimaru

Of course, it is impossible for Orochimaru to really die. This is actually the result of his research over this period of time.

Orochimaru, who is obsessed with immortality, takes a different path from Aoba. He keeps trying to manipulate the soul level and use the method of changing the body to maintain immortality.

This is the case with Reincarnation without Corpse. But he soon realized a serious problem, that is, Reincarnation without Corpse has a huge weakness.

The mismatch between the soul and the body will lead to a weakening of the soul level.

For this reason, Orochimaru did a lot of experiments, but he couldn't completely solve this problem. Until Aoba appeared.

Orochimaru had felt that something was wrong with Aoba a long time ago. He knew a lot of secret information, so much that it was simply not normal.

Although what the other party revealed was within the scope of understanding, but Orochimaru, a shrewd man, could see at a glance that Aoba still had a lot of hidden information that he had not revealed.

Later, the changes in Konoha also completely confirmed this.

Although Tsunade is the Hokage of Konoha, Orochimaru knows his old friend too well. He knows exactly how capable Tsunade is.

The other party definitely does not have the ability to develop Konoha into what it is now. Konoha is now the undisputed overlord of the ninja world.

It can be said that as long as Konoha wants, unifying the ninja world is not a problem at all.

Tsunade even defeated Ohnoki head-on. Theoretically, there was no force in the entire ninja world that could stop Konoha.

But Konoha didn't seem to be in a hurry, even though in the eyes of other forces in the ninja world, Konoha was already expanding madly. But Orochimaru noticed that Konoha still had a lot of power that had never been used.

This made Orochimaru realize that Aoba was already preparing to deal with the enemy that only existed in legends.

Yes, it is the enemy.

Orochimaru may be the only person in the entire ninja world who immediately agreed with Aoba's ideas and defined the Six Paths Sage as an enemy.

Their thinking is actually somewhat similar in some aspects. This is why Orochimaru was able to guess Aoba's purpose.

In a secret experimental base in Shandong, in a cultivation chamber, a new genderless body suddenly opened its eyes.

Kabuto Yakushi, who was standing next to him, looked at Orochimaru in surprise as he woke up.

"Lord Orochimaru, what are you doing?"

"...You can just say it, Kabuto. My soul escaped back."

"...Is it possible that you met Kamikawa Aoba who was able to push you to this extent?"

"...Hehe, I hope so, but in reality, I just encountered an ordinary ANBU Jonin team. Four people forced me to use Ghost Reincarnation."

Ghost Reincarnation is an advanced version of Corpse Reincarnation.

When Orochimaru was trying to solve the negative effects of Reincarnation, he realized that the negative effects of Reincarnation came from two aspects.

One is that when the soul leaves the body, it has no protection from the body and will be harmed by exposure to the air.

The Ninja Realm itself is not a place for souls to stay. Without a body, the soul will be harmed by all the free energy, radiation, and even human breath in the air.

Another reason is the mismatch of the body. Although Orochimaru can use genetic technology to make another body match his own body at the genetic level.

But it is not so easy to match souls, because this operation itself violates the basic rules of the ninja world.

Therefore, even if it succeeds, it is impossible to completely fuse. Therefore, Orochimaru needs to replace a body every once in a while.

Orochimaru’s solution to the first problem is the Spiritualization Technique.

He learned Kato Dan's spirit transformation technique. Although this secret technique is said to be impossible for anyone to learn after the death.

But Orochimaru managed to crack part of the secret after using all his resources. He actually didn't learn it completely.

But they found a way to let the soul leave the body without being harmed.

The problem of physical mismatching came back to Hashirama's cells. As a natural immortal, his cells seemed to have a strange compatibility.

It can carry all kinds of souls almost perfectly. This has been verified by several resurrected Hokage. After their resurrection, their bodies were cultivated using Hashirama's cells. There is no disharmony or backlash.

Orochimaru also used this method to cultivate a large number of new bodies for himself. In this way, he once again raised his ability to survive to a whole new level.

If you can't win, then your soul will leave your body. In the eyes of your opponent, it will be a mysterious death. Then your soul will return to the base and find a body to revive.

At this time, Orochimaru had actually achieved the basic configuration for immortality in theory.

Of course, it would be better if there was no Kamikawa Aoba in this world. At least he wouldn't have to hide underground like he is now, not daring to come out.

Unfortunately, what Orochimaru didn’t know was that the Aoba of today was no longer the Aoba of the past.

The underground laboratory that he used countless spells to cover up was like a transparent glass house in front of Qingye.

Qingye, who has the power over the earth, wants to find the first underground laboratory. It is roughly equivalent to taking a coin out of our pocket.
