Natsume rushed to the old man's house alone.
Its location is easy to distinguish. It is at the innermost part of the entire secret realm. There is a huge stone panda statue standing in front of the door.
That was the last time he fought against the beast Dou Payne.
He used the [Reincarnation Eye] ability to forcefully channel the stone panda statue out.
At that time, Mooncake recognized him at a glance.
You can even still see the 'mace' scars left by the third uncle's gong on the back of the stone statue...
Natsume walked around the stone statue and entered the hollow mansion behind.
Soon, I met the ancestor of the panda clan: Mr. Mo.
The old man was sitting on a futon made of bamboo strips, with his back to Natsume, and seemed to be reading something.
His body is not big, only the size of two Natsume, and there is a crystal clear tiger tooth pendant hanging on his chest...
As for its appearance, it is quite similar to mooncakes.
Anyway, he has a round face and a pair of big dark circles under his eyes.
Aside from their size, Natsume is also indistinguishable.
Probably, just like yellow people looking at black people, they all have a black face...
However, it can be clearly felt.
The old man is much better than the moon cake!
Just sitting there, it feels like one with the surrounding environment.
The majestic magical chakra in his body is even more frightening and should not be underestimated.
Although it is not as good as the old monsters like the Great Toad Immortal, the White Snake Immortal, and the Slug Immortal who have survived for thousands of years...
But at over 600 years old, he can be considered at the top of the psychic beasts.
…
Natsume nodded and greeted respectfully:
"Old Master!"
"Oh! It's Natsume-chan here."
The old man squinted his eyes and quickly stuffed the 'Colorful' magazine in his hand under the futon and hid it.
Then he turned around.
Looking at Natsume, he greeted kindly and cheerfully.
But, the next second.
Staring at Natsume, Old Man Mo opened his eyes, his eyes flashed, and his body was shaken.
He sighed in shock:
"This...such majestic chakra!"
"Have you grown to this point after not seeing me for just one year?"
Natsume said modestly:
"It's just a fluke, and thanks to Uncle Tongluo and the others' care."
Mr. Mo sighed slightly:
"It's impossible to reach this point just by luck!"
"With your current strength, you can be considered one of the few in the entire ninja world, right?"
"I never thought! That little guy from Moon Cake would be so lucky to have a blood contract with you."
"Is this luck?"
"It seems like our clan has taken advantage of it!"
With his level of cultivation and age, and the addition of magical chakra, it is already a natural force; the old man also has some experience with the elusive luck.
Just like the [Big Toad Immortal] can predict the future, it is also an advanced and magical use of the power of nature.
Even the so-called [Three Holy Lands] and many other psychic beasts.
The reason why I choose a ninja is to sign a blood contract with the ninja and fight to the death for the ninja.
He hopes to use the power and luck of ninjas to continue his family.
this era.
This is the era of ninjas and humans!
This is no longer the time for these lingering psychic beasts...
Otherwise, [Big Toad Immortal], [White Snake Immortal] and so on.
Are you full and have nothing to do?
Will you accept ninjas and teach them magic?
What's more, throughout the ages, there have been no ninjas who could achieve such strength.
Which one is not blessed with extraordinary luck?
Being able to form a good relationship with such a strong person will naturally benefit you without any harm.
…
"Since I have taken advantage, I can't let you suffer too much."
"Tell me, what do you want to see me, old man?"
"You little brat, you don't look like you're here to hang out."
Mr. Mo was very upright and asked with a smile.
Obviously, he had already seen through Natsume's purpose.
Natsume smiled lightly, without any hesitation, and directly stated his purpose.
He came to visit the old man.
I just want to know about the story from thousands of years ago.
After all, although he knew the general situation about Kaguya and the Divine Tree, he knew very little about the details.
These psychic beasts with a long heritage are more clear.
Mr. Mo did not hide this.
He spoke eloquently and told Natsume everything he knew.
…
The earth is huge.
Thousands of years ago, this fertile planet and the area suitable for the reproduction of life were dozens of times larger than the current Ninja World!
At that time, it ruled the entire planet.
It is a large number and variety of spiritual beasts.
By absorbing the rich natural power of the planet itself, they developed various magical arts and once reached their peak.
At that time, humans were just a small force.
They had just learned how to use tools, they had just established a primitive country, and they had never mastered any extraordinary power.
later.
Kaguya Otsutsuki, who is an alien tribesman, fell from the sky in one move with Otsutsuki.
The ten-tailed larvae of the sacred tree were planted on this planet.
Slowly, when the Ten-Tails grew into a sacred tree, it became stronger and stronger, and its vast and thick roots spread to every corner of the planet.
Constantly absorbing the rich natural power and life force on this planet.
Gradually, the energy of the entire planet was drained by the sacred tree, except for the palm-sized area of the ninja world.
Most of the remaining areas have become deserted.
This is one of the reasons why the environment in the Kingdom of Wind is so harsh.
Further to the west of [Kingdom of Wind], it is an inaccessible restricted area of life. Almost no one can survive in such a restricted area!
Such violent devouring of the sacred tree can be said to be a devastating blow to the earth's ecological environment.
In just a thousand years, it is impossible to recover.
Therefore, except for the ninja world, the rest of the area can no longer accommodate life...
at the same time.
Sudden changes in the environment and lack of natural power.
It also puts the lives of all psychic creatures on earth hanging by a thread.
In order to protect themselves, the toad clan, the earth snake clan, the slug fairy, the dream tapir clan, the panda clan, etc....
They all showed their special abilities.
He used magic, secrets, etc. to form a semi-enclosed boundary in his own habitat.
In this way, it is possible to avoid the crazy encroachment of the sacred tree.
That's it, over time.
This formed the psychic beast secret realm system headed by the three holy places.
This is also the reason why the natural energy in these secret realms is far richer than the current ninja world.
Because, these semi-enclosed secret realms have inherited the level before the sacred tree swallowed them up.
In that ancient time, the natural power of the earth was much richer than it is now...
…
Hearing this, Natsume gradually understood.
To put it bluntly, this sacred tree is a parasite brought by the alien Otsutsuki clan.
A creation specially designed to swallow up the energy of the earth.
Assuming that it takes 100,000 points of energy and the sacrifice of an Otsutsuki tribesman to produce a basic [Sacred Tree Fruit].
So the entire earth may have a total energy of 120,000 points?
As a result, the sacred tree absorbed enough 100,000 points of energy to bear fruit.
If I continued to absorb it, I could absorb all the remaining 20,000 energy points.
As a result, Kaguya was suddenly betrayed by the "ancestral country" and picked and swallowed the "sacred tree fruit" in advance.
She became the immortal [Goddess of Mao].
As a result, 20,000 points of natural energy are left for the earth.
The rest of these natural energies.
Part of it was intercepted by the psychic beasts of various races and preserved in the habitats of each family in the form of barriers.
The remaining part barely maintained the scale and ecological balance of the current ninja world.
Otherwise, this territory of the ninja world.
It is estimated that like other areas, it will turn into a dead place.
Of course, this is all Natsume's assumption.
The so-called 120,000 points of energy is just a metaphor.
However, this inference should be correct nine times out of ten.
This way.
This can explain why the ninja world only occupies an area the size of the palm of the entire earth.
Why can life continue to exist on the earth after the sacred tree has already produced fruits?
Anyway, Natsume didn’t believe it.
The Otsutsuki clan, which spans hundreds of millions of light years and comes all the way to plunder the earth's energy, cannot directly drain the earth dry.
On the contrary, I will be kind enough to leave some energy for the earth...
"No wonder, the Great Toad Sage back then wanted to help Otsutsuki Hagoromo deal with Kaguya!"
"After all, all psychic beasts are the real creatures of the earth, and they are the guardians who protect the earth's natural energy."
"I really want Kaguya to continue to crazily create White Zetsu and drain the last energy of the earth..."
"Then these psychic beasts that rely on the earth to exist will probably no longer exist..."
Natsume sighed secretly in his heart.
This time, he finally understood.
Why did these psychic beasts choose to side with the ninjas?
