Red Lotus Godzilla was overjoyed. His master had been very relaxed for the past few years, rarely taking any action. Now that he was making an exception for him, how could he not be excited?
Ye Tian then ended his communication with Red Lotus Godzilla.
"Kumoko, Honghong, Yaya, I'll be gone for a while," Ye Tian said.
"Alright, Master, come back soon!" Kumoko responded softly.
At Shikkotsu Forest, the Slug Sage, after transforming into a human, had all the other slugs transform as well. After all, transformation could enhance their strength, so why not do it?
If they didn't like the human form, they could always revert to their slug form without any problem.
At that moment, Shikkotsu Forest began to shake.
"Someone has intruded into Shikkotsu Forest!"
The Slug Sage frowned, then became furious.
Shikkotsu Forest was a sacred land of the slugs, and she was its protector. Though she usually kept a low profile, she was still at the level of the Six Paths. Who would dare trespass on her territory?
Even the White Snake Sage or the Great Toad Sage would notify her before visiting, never daring to enter without permission.
Of course, if someone with a contract entered the forest, that would be a different matter.
But this time, the intruder had forced their way in.
Boom!!!
The sky tore open, and massive hands ripped a space-time rift wide.
In the next moment, a figure stepped out from the rift.
"Ye Tian!"
The Slug Sage's face paled in shock, utterly terrified.
She watched as Ye Tian approached her step by step and looked at her.
"You're not wearing anything."
Ye Tian was speechless. He recognized her—it was the Slug Sage, likely just having completed her transformation and still adjusting to her new human body.
"Sorry about that!"
The Slug Sage quickly realized and draped an energy robe over herself.
At this moment, she didn't dare show any anger towards Ye Tian for invading Shikkotsu Forest because she was no match for him.
She could feel the terrifying energy inside him, far beyond her imagination.
She had once seen Otsutsuki Kaguya and even the Ten Tails, but the chakra of the Ten Tails paled in comparison to the energy within Ye Tian.
"This is terrifying!"
The Slug Sage realized that if she were to fight Ye Tian, he could kill her in an instant.
Thus, she dared not show even a hint of displeasure.
"Slug Sage, I'd like to borrow your Shapeshifting Pool."
Ye Tian spoke.
"This…"
The Slug Sage hesitated.
"Don't worry, I'll compensate you. But if you can't meet this small request, then Shikkotsu Forest will have no reason to exist. Remember, I'm not asking—I'm telling you."
Boom!!!
A terrifying aura spread throughout Shikkotsu Forest, making it feel as though the entire area would shatter.
The Slug Sage, suppressed by Ye Tian's aura, couldn't move, as if time itself had stopped. She was completely immobilized.
It was as if death was hovering over her.
But soon, Ye Tian withdrew his aura.
"So, have you made up your mind?" Ye Tian asked.
"Lord Ye Tian, I'm willing to let you borrow the Shapeshifting Pool!" the Slug Sage gasped and immediately agreed.
Without delay, Ye Tian used the summoning technique to bring Red Lotus Godzilla to the forest.
Soon, with a loud boom, Red Lotus Godzilla appeared on the ground of Shikkotsu Forest.
"Shapeshifting Pool! Thank you, Master!!"
Red Lotus Godzilla exclaimed excitedly.
"Go ahead and transform!"
Ye Tian said calmly.
"Yes, Master!"
Red Lotus Godzilla immediately rushed into the Shapeshifting Pool.
Once he completed his transformation, he could roam freely on land in the future, without Ye Tian complaining that he was disturbing the lives of ordinary people and forbidding him from stepping on land.
After entering the Shapeshifting Pool, Red Lotus Godzilla quickly underwent transformation.
In no time, he transformed into a burly man.
At that moment, Ye Tian took out a treasure— the Hundred-Strand Treasure Robe. It was a reward from one of the Golden List updates. Since it was of no use to him, he had tossed it into his Void Ring.
Now, however, it could be given to the Slug Sage as compensation. After all, this robe could enhance defense and would be somewhat useful to her.
"Let's go!"
Ye Tian grabbed the newly transformed Red Lotus Godzilla and tore through space, leaving the Shikkotsu Forest.
The Slug Sage looked at the Hundred-Strand Immortal Robe in her hand and sighed.
Although she had been threatened this time, in truth, she hadn't lost anything and had even gained a treasure.
Of course, she would never tell anyone about this; it would be too embarrassing!
After returning, Red Lotus Godzilla was sent off by Ye Tian. He still had his tasks to complete, but in his free time, he could go play on land without restriction.
This made Red Lotus Godzilla extremely excited.
At this moment, the rewards for the Power List were being distributed.
The Golden List Livestream.
The screen displayed the reward for the eighth-ranked power on the list.
The eighth-ranked force was the Ōtsutsuki clan from the moon.
Soon after, a reward item appeared on the screen.
It was a scroll filled with numerous diagrams and texts, though the details were not clear due to the visual secrecy—intended to maintain confidentiality.
[Puppet Scroll: It contains the methods for crafting three Six Paths-level puppets, dozens of Super Kage-level puppets, and hundreds of Kage-level puppets.]
When this reward was announced, everyone was shocked.
[Kankuro: Oh my god, puppets comparable to the Six Paths level? If those were created, wouldn't they be able to unify the entire ninja world?]
[Tsunade: Even if they can't create Six Paths-level puppets, the Super Kage-level ones are terrifying enough. If there were a group of Super Kage-level puppets, they could sweep through the ninja world!]
[Fourth Raikage A: How is it that the reward for the eighth-ranked force is this good? That's unbelievable!]
On the moon,
Ōtsutsuki Toneri was extremely excited. Although he was proficient in puppet crafting, he could, at most, make puppets comparable to Kage-level. As for Super Kage-level or Six Paths-level puppets, he hadn't even dared to dream about them!
"Hahaha, this is great! If I can create a large number of Six Paths-level puppets, what is Ye Tian to me? What are the Underground Black Market, the Ninja Guild, and the Mercenary Guild? My Ōtsutsuki clan on the moon would be enough to easily destroy the ninja world without even needing to rely on the Giant Tenseigan!"
Ōtsutsuki Toneri exclaimed in excitement.
Immediately,
he retrieved the Puppet Scroll.
Buzz!
The Puppet Scroll materialized and fell into his hands.
Then, he opened it to examine the crafting methods.
Soon, he frowned.
"Super Kage-level and Six Paths-level puppets are hard to craft. The energy source is one issue, and the materials are another. Even if I exert all my efforts, I might only be able to create one Six Paths-level puppet, and I would have to merge the Giant Tenseigan into it as its energy core. However, once such a puppet is built, it will be incredibly beneficial!"
Ōtsutsuki Toneri murmured.
In short, the value of this Puppet Scroll was immense. Moreover, in the future, he could obtain many more rewards from the Golden List, possibly including materials suitable for crafting puppets, such as Vibranium, which would be ideal for puppet-making.
The other factions in the ninja world didn't understand the difficulty of puppet crafting, which caused them to greatly fear the Ōtsutsuki clan on the moon.
Soon, the reward for the ninth-ranked force appeared.
This reward belonged to the Yotsuki clan from the Land of Lightning.
At this moment, Fourth Raikage A, Killer Bee, and the rest of the Yotsuki clan were eagerly awaiting the reward.
