"You really did see it!?" Kumoko was shocked but then protested, "Rongrong Sis, that's not fair! Can't I even think about something in my own mind? You peeking into others' thoughts—that's the real shameless act!"
"I wouldn't normally do this!" Rongrong retorted.
At this point, Yaya asked curiously, "Second Sister, can you peek into Master's mind?"
Honghong and Kumoko were also curious, all of them turning their attention to Rongrong.
"I wouldn't dare peek into Master's mind unless he permits it," Rongrong said, looking at Ye Tian as if awaiting his consent.
"Rongrong, go ahead and try," Ye Tian allowed.
With Ye Tian's permission, Rongrong didn't hesitate any longer. She immediately activated her Purple-Eyed Divine Pupil, combining it with her heart force to try and peer into Ye Tian's inner world.
Boom!!!!
A chaotic void appeared in Rongrong's perception; all she could sense was chaos, with nothing else discernible.
Helpless, she gave up.
"I can't peek into Master's mind. All I could perceive was an endless chaos; I don't understand what it means," Rongrong explained.
She then tested Honghong, Yaya, and even Garaga, successfully peering into all of their thoughts. However, when it came to Master, her ability failed.
"It seems Master is special, which is why I can't peek into his inner world!" Rongrong concluded.
Ye Tian speculated that it might be due to his deduction system, which made heart force probing ineffective against him.
Time passed quickly, and a few more days went by.
Ye Tian then began a closed-door cultivation session, instructing Honghong, Kumoko, and the others not to disturb him.
In the training chamber, Ye Tian sat cross-legged and took out a Fourth Rank Golden Pill. Without hesitation, he swallowed it whole.
Boom!!!!
A surge of energy coursed through his body as Ye Tian rapidly absorbed and refined the energy of the Fourth Rank Golden Pill, with the Senjutsu Chakra within him increasing at a remarkable pace.
Time flowed steadily.
One day!
Two days!
Three days!
Before he knew it, seven days had passed, and only then had Ye Tian fully refined the Fourth Rank Golden Pill.
"I've reached the peak of the Six Paths level!" Ye Tian murmured.
His Senjutsu Chakra had now reached its current limit, with no further room for growth. To continue advancing, he would need to break through this bottleneck.
At this moment, Ye Tian took out a Fifth Rank Golden Pill, which had ten times the energy of a Fourth Rank Golden Pill and even greater effects. It would undoubtedly help Ye Tian break through his limits.
This barrier wasn't just Ye Tian's own bottleneck but also a restriction imposed by the rules of the Shinobi World. In the Shinobi World, the highest limit is the Six Paths level, and breaking through it is incredibly difficult. If Ye Tian relied solely on himself, it would take an enormous amount of time to achieve this breakthrough. However, with this Fifth Rank Golden Pill, it was possible.
Gulp!
Ye Tian swallowed the pill in one go, then activated his Glazed Golden Body technique to fully lock down all his acupoints, sealing the pill's energy to break through his limitations, shatter the rules, and advance beyond the Six Paths level.
Boom!!!!!
The energy from the Fifth Rank Golden Pill seemed to transform into a golden dragon, while the barrier and the rules of the Shinobi World became a towering cliff. The golden dragon crashed into the cliff, causing countless stones to fall and shaking the heavens and earth.
Once!
Twice!
Three times!
Ye Tian didn't know how many times he had attacked, but the energy of the Fifth Rank Golden Pill still hadn't been exhausted, which demonstrated the power of this pill. If it had been a Fourth Rank Golden Pill, the breakthrough might have already failed.
Finally, when about half of the pill's energy was consumed, the cliff representing the barrier began to crack with a sharp crack. After a few more strikes, the entire cliff shattered completely.
At this moment, the barrier imposed by the heavens and the rules of the world were utterly destroyed by Ye Tian.
Crack!!!!
It was as if something in the heavens had broken.
Kumoko, Yaya, Honghong, and Rongrong all turned to look at the place where Ye Tian was in seclusion.
"The Master has broken through!" Rongrong said.
Kumoko was overjoyed: "Master was already at the pinnacle of the Six Paths level, far more powerful than the average Six Paths-level being. Now that he has broken through the barrier, he has surpassed the Six Paths level and entered a new realm! This time, Master is truly invincible!"
Honghong and Yaya were also very happy but did not disturb Ye Tian, instead waiting outside the door.
Inside his body, Ye Tian felt his Sage Chakra continuously refining and transforming, turning into an even more powerful force. Moreover, along with this transformation, his soul grew several times stronger, and his Glazed Golden Body also improved by a small margin.
Compared to before the breakthrough, Ye Tian's strength had increased by dozens of times.
"I've finally broken through. This realm can no longer be called the Six Paths level. Every world has different classifications, and in the Shinobi World, I'm the first to reach this level. So, let's call it the Immortal Path level!" Ye Tian said.
Having reached the Immortal Path level, no attack from the Six Paths level could harm him. He was now truly invincible, and even the main family of the Ōtsutsuki clan, no matter how powerful they were, should no longer pose a threat to him.
"Next, I'll look forward to the Golden List providing more treasures to further enhance my strength. Then I'll train Kumoko, Honghong, and the others while enjoying a leisurely life basking in the sun every day. Such a laid-back life isn't bad at all!" Ye Tian thought to himself.
He then spent another day stabilizing his new realm before finally walking out of the training room.
"Master, you're finally out! I was so worried!" Kumoko immediately pounced on him.
Ye Tian hugged her and comforted her, saying, "It's okay, I was just breaking through to a new realm. No need to worry!"
"We want a hug too!"
Honghong, Yaya, and Rongrong forced their way in.
After a while, everyone finally calmed down.
Suddenly, Honghong curiously asked, "Master, now that you've broken through the Six Paths level, what level of power have you reached?"
"I haven't tested it!" Ye Tian calculated for a moment and then said, "But with my current strength, I could probably destroy the moon with just one finger?"
Of course, he had no intention of actually doing so; there was no need!
"Wow, Master is invincible!!!!" Kumoko exclaimed in admiration.
"You all need to work hard too. Strive to break through the Six Paths level and reach a new realm. Moreover, after reaching my current level, your lifespan will significantly increase. With my current lifespan, living for hundreds of thousands of years shouldn't be a problem!" Ye Tian estimated.
"Hundreds of thousands of years of lifespan!!!"
The girls gasped.
Although their lifespans were also long, they could at most live for ten thousand years, which was the limit and the limit of the Six Paths level. As for the Master, he was a human. The lifespan of humans in the Shinobi World is generally short and difficult to extend. Who would have thought that after breaking through the Six Paths barrier, he could live for hundreds of thousands of years!
For a moment, they were even more eager to break through the Six Paths level. That way, they could accompany the Master for hundreds of thousands of years, or even longer!
In the blink of an eye, more than half a year had passed.
At the base of the Sound Village, Orochimaru held a document in his hand. It was about Sasuke's progress in his training.
"Sasuke has already trained to the Kage level, getting closer and closer to my strength. I can't let him continue growing. It's time to make my move on him!" Orochimaru muttered.
He planned to take over Sasuke's body and live on as Sasuke.
As for the future, heh, he didn't believe in the Golden List's future images at all.
Sasuke's body belonged to him!
