Chapter 434: Land of Snow\'s Secret

--- Chapter 431 ---

Yunlong and Kaguya returned to the island, where they left behind Ah Yin and saw the Asura Goddess meditating silently. They looked around and noticed the small island was \'completely\' surrounded by lush mangroves and giant tree formations spread over a hundred miles.

Since they knew the Asura Goddess\'s origin, they weren\'t surprised by this development. At the same time, Yunlong couldn\'t help but compare this island to the Sabaody Archipelago.

The similarity is uncanny.

"It\'s so easy to mistake this ability with Wood Release," Kaguya said while staring at Ah Yin. "But the truth is, every plant here comes from one tenacious organism, Blue Silver Grass."

"Even in this world, she could still exert so much authority over nature."

"You can also do it." Yunlong casually pointed out.

Kaguya nodded aloofly, "I can."

"After all, my body is that of Ah Yin."

"But I never like to use my mutated Blue Silver Grass and focus on my Dimensional Mastery instead."

Yunlong raised his brow and asked, "Are you interested now?"

"Maybe... We will see about it when Otsutsuki is coming." Kaguya put on a small smile.

Ah Yin slowly awakened from her meditation and revealed her crystal-clear eyes. She stared at Yunlong calmly and reported, "Master, I have taken 50% of this planet\'s vegetation under my control."

"I can do more, but that would cause chain reactions..."

"Such as?" Yunlong returned with a frown.

"The arrival of Spirit Energy. Although the amount will be negligence, the Spirit Energy would start affecting this world\'s natural energy." Ah Yin added monotonously.

"Hmm, hold that 50% up for now and keep spreading your Blue Silver Grass all over the planet." After some thought, Yunlong kept Spirit Energy\'s introduction plan on hold.

According to his experience, Spirit Energy\'s introduction would alert the race with powerful sensing ability and most likely prevent the Otsutsuki Clan from entering the Shinobi World.

And that won\'t do.

"Understood." Asura Goddess responded with a nod. She sighed inside because she wanted to put this weak planet in her master\'s control immediately.

She believed holding back her terraforming was just a waste of time.

Her devotion is literally fanatical.

However, order is order.

Then, the Asura Goddess remembered something.

"Master, when my Blue Silver Domain spread to the vast ocean." She called Yunlong. "I detected an interesting fluctuation from a snow-covered land nearby."

"Snow-covered land? Then, it must be the Land of Snow." Yunlong said calmly.

"From what I remembered... The Land of Snow only has better technology development because of its harsh natural environment. Their new steam and mechanical engines are famous in the Shinobi World. The land was in shambles because of the rebellion years ago, but everything should be fine after Kazahana Koyuki reigned as the new Daimyo."

"Due to the friendship between the new Daimyo and the current Hokage, the Land of Snow has become quite prosperous."

"No, that\'s not it." Kaguya suddenly chimed in. Her Tenseigan seemed to detect something.

"There is something beneath the Land of Snow that ordinary eyes and casual mental-type ability couldn\'t detect."

"Why do I feel this pure natural energy is familiar?"

"Ah, it\'s the Hidden Veins of Life."

"Hidden Veins of Life?" Yunlong tilted his head in confusion.

Kaguya nodded and explained, "Just like Rymyaku(Dragon Veins), which stores near-infinite natural Chakra with Jikukan(Space-Time) Attribute, the Hidden Veins of Life also has a massive and unique natural Chakra."

"And it\'s attribute is Life!"

"In the past, it was weak and not worthy enough to enter my eyes, but a long accumulation has made it quite a delectable chakra source."

"Moreover..." Kaguya\'s beautiful eyes gleamed a little. "This Chakra is very suitable for my Husband\'s Kama Project."

A weird smile appeared on Yunlong\'s face as he questioned, "Since when did it become Husband\'s Kama Project?"

"Since now." Kaguya beamed smugly.

The Asura Goddess watched their conversation with a trace of jealousy in her heart, but she quickly calmed down because she knew her place.

After losing to Yunlong, Ah Yin willingly becomes his slave and devotes her everything to him.

To Ah Yin, Yunlong is like the most brilliant star in this dark world, which shows just the extent of Kotoamatsukami\'s ability enhanced by the Heavenly Ruler\'s Authority.

Yes, Yunlong could bend a Godking(though he must weaken her first) to his will. Unfortunately, it comes with a price as well. But that\'s another discussion for the near future.

"Anyway, we still have hours before the gathering time. I\'m curious about this Hidden Veins of Life. Let\'s check it." Yunlong suggested.

"I was about to ask you out," Kaguya responded shortly after.

They chuckled and left Ah Yin alone on the island again.

"How envious..." Ah Yin watched Yunlong and Kaguya fly away.

"I have to work harder."

Yunlong and Kaguya arrived at the Land of Snows after skipping through the horizon a few times. They searched through the land until their eyes spotted Kazahana Castle, where the current Daimyo lived.

...

Kazahana Castle, Daimyo\'s Bedroom.

Kazahana Koyuki is a mature woman in her late thirties, but still amazingly attractive. She has long black hair with bangs that sweep on each side of her face and violet-blue eyes. She wore a white yukata with a blue flower pattern, which showcased her voluptuous body.

She retired from the acting world and reclaimed her Daimyo\'s status ten years ago. She bore a more solemn and refined atmosphere.

Kazahana Koyuki sat up on her bed and gasped for air. She had a bad dream where countless meteorites fell on her homeland and destroyed everything.

In the sky, there are several powerful entities with pale appearances. And they looked down on mortals.

She was nothing but a powerless ant before them. Even though the Land of Snow has developed many weapons, they are useless against these aliens.

"That dream..." Kazahana Koyuki rubbed her forehead painfully. "It must be a sign of something."

"Impressive. You actually dream of the arrival of Otsutsuki." An amused male voice abruptly echoed in her room. "People of the Shinobi World sure have a nick when it comes to prophecy."

"Who is there?!" Kazahana Koyuki instinctively drew a light katana from her blanket and slashed the source of the voice. Her Kenjutsu is smooth and skillful, something one didn\'t expect from a Daimyo.

Yet she only slashed through the air.

The surrounding window tore open, and sunlight flashed through the bedroom. Kazahana Koyuki covered her eyes because of the sudden brightness.

Clack~!

Even then, she still held his katana firmly. The sound of rustling windows startled Kazahana Koyuki, and a handsome, black-haired man in a white-black robe entered her recovered vision.

The black-haired man\'s appearance stunned Kazahana Koyuki. At first, she felt he looked familiar, but then realization kicked in.

"S-Sword God." Kazahana Koyuki trembled like a frightened rabbit.

"Oh, you recognized me?" Yunlong flashed a smile at her.

Kazahana Koyuki hurriedly sheathed her katana and bowed, "T-This lowly one is sorry for pointing her sword at you."

"Woah, calm down. It\'s my fault to barge into your bedroom to begin with." Yunlong carefreely replied.

Kazahana Koyuki has heard about the Sword God and his godly prowess in the Fourth Shinobi World War. He\'s an existence that people her level shouldn\'t provoke at any cost.

She\'s the Land of Snow\'s ruler, so she can\'t let it get destroyed.

Her late father entrusted this land to her!

Still bowing on her bed, Kazahana Koyuki took a deep breath and asked carefully, "S-Sword God, may I ask if you need something from me?"

Yunlong smiled, "The key to The Land of Spring. I want it."

Kazahana Koyuki sighed in relief and slowly pulled a crystal necklace from her neck. "This is the key, Sword God."

"Thanks." Yunlong took the crystal necklace and observed it with his eyes.

[Name: Kazahana Clan\'s Inheritance Necklace]

[Type: Key/Accessory]

[Grade: S]

[Description: A crystal necklace made with an unknown material, which also possessed a trace of powerful energy. It\'s a key to awaken the Land of Spring]

"Good," Yunlong commented with a nod. With this crystal necklace, he could access the Hidden Veins of Life.

"Hmm, I can\'t take things for free."

He glanced at Kazahana Koyuki and pondered before doing something unexpected to her. Placing his hand on her head, Yunlong injected his Divinity and performed the Spirit Awakening Ceremony.

"Here, a small gift from me. From now on, you\'re one of the earliest individuals who walked into the new era of Shinobi World."

"See you in a few hours, Kazahana Koyuki."

"I hope you like my little gift." After saying that, Yunlong disappeared from the room and left Kazahana Koyuki alone.

Kazahana Koyuki stared at the nearby mirror and froze on the spot as her appearance returned to her early twenties, "T-This..."
