Chapter 294 Arrival at the Sealed Shrine

Countless cracks began to appear in the rock layer on Yitai's body, spreading rapidly like a spider web. Rocks continued to fall, splashing dust all over the sky.

In the flying dust, Yitai's figure wrapped in rocks was looming.

Although the rock formation blocked most of the attack, Xiao Li's powerful kick still severely injured him and knocked him unconscious.

On the other side, the battle between Neji and Kusuna is about to begin.

Kusuna's eyes were vicious, his hands quickly formed seals, he muttered something, and instantly performed ninjutsu.

I saw countless hidden weapons wrapped in the light and shadow formed by the ninjutsu, whizzing towards Neci like locusts in the sky.

These hidden weapons come in various shapes, including sharp kunai, barbed shurikens, and some special darts emitting cold light. With the help of the light of ninjutsu, their speed is astonishingly fast, and they make bursts of breaking air sounds wherever they pass.

However, Neji looked calm and composed, showing no sign of panic at all.

His unique white eyes opened instantly, and white light flowed in his eyes, as if containing endless mysterious power.

With the extraordinary insight of his Byakugan, he seemed to have all-round vision and could easily capture the trajectory of every hidden weapon and ninjutsu.

His figure flashed like a ghost, and he moved freely among the intensive attacks. Those seemingly deadly hidden weapons and ninjutsu could not touch him at all.

Then, Neji seized the opportunity, flashed, turned into a white shadow, and instantly appeared in front of Kusuna.

He gathered his energy with both palms, and a soft yet powerful chakra gathered in his palms.

Then, he used his soft fist and hit Kusuna's acupuncture points precisely.

Each punch is like a dragonfly skimming the water, but it contains unique skills and power.

As the fist landed on Kusuna, Kusuna felt that the chakra in his body became chaotic in an instant, like a calm lake with a huge rock thrown into it.

His body began to become gradually sluggish, as if it was stuck in a quagmire, and every movement became extremely difficult.

Neji took advantage of the victory and pursued, not giving Kusuna any chance to breathe.

I saw him moving his feet, rotating his body, and waving his palms like a phantom, performing the last Bagua Sixty-Four Palms.

In an instant, his attacks rained down on Kusuna, and each blow hit the acupuncture points accurately.

Accompanied by the sound of "pa pa pa", Kusuna's body was constantly hit by powerful force. He was like a small boat in the storm, without any resistance.

Finally, under this series of attacks, Kusuna was knocked to the ground like a pile of mud, raising a cloud of dust.

After they dealt with their opponents, they returned quickly in the direction where Naruto was without stopping.

They exuded a cold aura, as if the battle they had just experienced was just a small test.

After a while, their figures appeared in Naruto's sight.

Naruto watched them return unharmed, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, his eyes full of relief.

"Well done." Naruto said, his voice was not loud but full of power, making several people feel warm in their hearts.

With the end of the battle, several people continued to move towards the sealed ancestral hall, exhausted but tenacious after the battle.

Along the way, everyone was silent. The life-and-death battle they had just experienced made them realize that what was waiting for them ahead might be an even more brutal challenge. However, there was no fear in their eyes, only determination to move forward.

A few days later, in the Konoha Hokage Building.

The sunlight shines into the house through the window, but it cannot dispel the solemn atmosphere.

"Have all the stone warriors on the front line disappeared?" Tsunade asked with a frown on her face, full of confusion.

Her eyes were fixed on the information on the table, and a feeling of uneasiness surged in her heart.

"Did they retreat for some reason? Maybe they can avoid the fate of destruction." Shizune stood aside and answered with a hint of luck in her eyes.

She tried to analyze this strange phenomenon from an optimistic perspective, but she was still unsure.

Tsunade pondered for a while, crossed her arms, her eyes became deep, and continued: "No, I'm afraid the situation is just the opposite. Maybe that guy wants to fight to the death."

Her tone was full of worry. She knew very well how cunning and powerful the enemy was. If it was true as she guessed, the world would face an unprecedented crisis.

The entire Hokage Building seemed to be shrouded in this heavy atmosphere, and a storm seemed to be coming.

Swamp country, sealed ancestral hall.

Naruto carried Shion on his back, and he and the others finally arrived here after several days of travel.

What comes into view is a huge cliff, which looks like a natural barrier. The steep cliff wall is as smooth as if cut by a knife, as if telling the vicissitudes of time.

The entrance to the sealed shrine is right on the edge of the cliff, standing there quietly, exuding a mysterious atmosphere, as if hiding countless unknown secrets.

There is a huge open space in front of the cliff, which looks like an ancient battlefield.

There were many strange rocks in the open space. The rocks were in various shapes. Some looked like ferocious beasts with bloody mouths.

Some are like sharp spears, pointing straight to the sky;

Some are like hunchbacked old men, silently guarding this mysterious place.

There was a faint mist between the strange rocks, making the area even more mysterious, as if countless pairs of eyes were peeping at Naruto and the others through the mist.

Naruto's Sharingan was moving in his eyes, and there seemed to be light flowing in those mysterious eyes, seeing through everything in the open space.

Under the gaze of the Pure Wheel of Time, the strange rocks revealed their original appearance - they were exactly the army of stone figurines of monsters.

They are like silent killers, ready for battle. It seems that the enemy has been waiting here in advance, and a fierce battle seems inevitable.

Then Naruto bit his finger without hesitation, quickly formed seals with his hands, and shouted: "Summoning technique!" In an instant, a huge white ape, Xun Wukong, appeared in front of everyone.

As soon as it appeared, it roared towards the sky, shaking the whole area.

Just when everyone was confused, Naruto said calmly: "The army of stone statues has ambushed here, you should resist here first."

After saying that, Naruto continued with his actions.

There was a flash of light at his belt, and seven majestic little beasts of different shapes appeared in front of everyone.

It is the tailed beast that Naruto has newly cultivated:

A Cangyan Lion, its body covered with scales as hard as rock, every step it takes on the ground can cause slight vibrations;

Two-tailed Thunder Shadow Wolf, with blue arcs of electricity surrounding his body, and eyes as sharp as lightning, as if he could see through everything;

The four-tailed Flame Thunder Tiger, with blazing flames burning on its body, and the flames were mixed with traces of lightning power, emitting a chilling aura;

Five-tailed Spiritual Wind Crane, whose huge wings can stir up strong winds with strange spiritual power flowing in the wind;

Seven-tailed Phantom Light Butterfly, with colorful lights on its wings, these lights are like dreams and seem to have the magical power to confuse the enemy;

Eight-tailed Earth-shattering Elephant, whose body is as huge as a mountain, and whose thick limbs can create deep cracks on the ground every time they fall;

Nine-tailed Holy Flame Fox, its nine tails dancing like burning flames, the flames are holy and hot, as if containing divine power.

The moment they appeared, they felt the solemnity of the atmosphere and immediately grew larger.
