Chapter 89 Since We're Here
"Lord White Snake, I'm not joking, this is a fact I've observed."
Orochimaru shook his head.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! He just grabbed my hand, and I couldn't move. Orochimaru, are you saying he's actually very weak? I..."
Upon hearing Orochimaru's words, Princess Tanshin almost lost her balance.
While questioning the veracity of Orochimaru's words, she couldn't help but walk up to Bai Mo and grab him.
It seemed that he wanted to avenge being threatened and humiliated by Bai Mo earlier.
"What are you doing? Delivering something?"
Just like before, Bai Mo grabbed the hand that Tian Xin Shen Ji extended.
After struggling for a couple of minutes to no avail, Princess Tianxin glared fiercely at Orochimaru—she had indeed been tricked by that bastard Orochimaru!
"I only said the cells were weak, not that Bai Mojun was weak."
Orochimaru innocently shrugged.
"I heard that snake molts can be used to make wine or tea. I'll take off my socks, make the wine, and send it to Jiraiya later."
"...Help! White Snake Immortal!"
Tianxin Shenji froze, tears welling up in her eyes, and slowly turned her head to beg the White Snake Immortal for help.
"Young man, let her go. If you want snake slough to make tea or wine, I can give you some before you leave. But soaking it in socks is too perverted. I advise you to have less contact with Mount Myōboku in the future, lest you be led astray."
The White Snake Immortal offered earnest advice.
"OK."
Bai Mo released Tian Xin Shen Ji.
The White Snake Sage was right; he was indeed corrupted by Jiraiya.
"Orochimaru, continue. What exactly happened?"
The White Snake Sage looked at Orochimaru.
"Well, based on my observation, Bai Mojun's cell density is far lower than that of ordinary people. Not to mention the Uzumaki and the Senju clan, even ordinary people without bloodlines have 130 trillion cells."
However, Bai Mojun's cells, estimated to be at most 500,000, also have very low activity and strength.
Originally, I just wanted to confirm why Bai Mojun couldn't refine chakra, but I discovered that, based on his situation, his physical condition should be worse than that of an ordinary person who hasn't cultivated.
"So? Have you figured out how he controls natural energy?"
The White Snake Immortal frowned and continued to press for answers.
"Based on my previous simple observations, Bai Mojun's cells are indeed pitifully weak, but the substances that make up the finer layers of cells are completely different from those of the creatures in the ninja world."
Those elements, roughly estimated, would require at least billions of degrees of high temperature to be produced naturally... It could be said that Bai Mojun's body was forged by the sun.
Besides these, there are some things I cannot observe.
Perhaps it's not just about needing the sun...
Orochimaru paused here and revealed the purpose of his trip: "Lord White Snake, I brought Bai Mojun to Ryuchi Cave to find a more suitable training method for him."
As for the "things that cannot be observed" that Orochimaru mentioned, he was referring to the illogical parts of the research.
These illogical points are of the same type as Bai Mo's "changing the future" and "deleting time".
But now Orochimaru no longer has any doubts about these things.
Bai Mo's concept of dimensions made Orochimaru realize that this might not be illogical, but rather that he couldn't understand the logic behind it.
If Bai Mo possesses the power of a higher-dimensional being, with the ability to sever causality, then everything can be explained clearly.
The God of Otsutsuki?
Orochimaru felt that perhaps this legendary overlord who roamed the universe, after a lifetime of killing countless people, had not even reached the starting point of Bai Mojun.
"...Is that so?"
The White Snake Sage never expected that the usually rational Orochimaru would say something so outrageous.
After thinking about it for a while, she decided to believe Orochimaru for now.
The White Snake Immortal picked up his pipe and tapped the bed: "I understand. Since that's the case, then I'll tell you. A thousand years ago, I saw a being with the greatest amount of natural energy I've ever seen in my life—the Ten-Tailed Fox."
If he is truly as you say, then perhaps the Ten-Tails' way of survival is also his way of cultivation.
"Ten-Tails?"
Orochimaru stroked his chin for a moment, then looked up. "Does Lord White Snake mean for Bai Mojun to collect the Tailed Beasts and seal them within his body to become a Jinchūriki, thus compensating for his lack of chakra?"
"I have no idea."
"..."
Orochimaru was rendered speechless by the White Snake Sage's [High-quality answer: I don't know].
"Back then, the battle between the Sage of Six Paths was so fierce that the heavens and earth darkened, and the sun and moon lost their light. It was impossible for the three of us to get close. We could only rely on our sensory abilities to detect some things from afar. What do you think?"
The White Snake Sage glanced at Orochimaru indifferently.
"Well then, Lady White Snake, if there's nothing else, we'll take our leave."
Orochimaru was very efficient and pragmatic. Seeing that he couldn't get any more information, he prepared to leave with Bai Mo.
"etc."
The White Snake Sage called out to the two, and after thinking for a while as if recalling something, he said, "The center of the great battle of the Sage of Six Paths caused extremely serious environmental damage, and that was also where the Ten-Tails once took root."
The wounds and fissures that have been inflicted on the earth are called "dragon veins" by the locals—"Hmph, dragons" (muttering under his breath). "If you can't find any other way, you can go check it out over there."
"Thank you, Lord White Snake."
Orochimaru silently noted it down.
Dragon vein?
It sounds familiar.
Isn't this something that Bai Mojun mentioned to him before, something that exists in the ancient city of Loulan?
"Bai Mojun, come closer, we're about to leave."
Orochimaru said to Bai Mo.
"Since we're already here, why not sign a contract before we leave? The summoning beasts are three pretty snake girls, which is pretty good..."
"No!"
"Run!!"
"Help!"
Upon hearing that Bai Mo wanted to form a contract with them, the three goddesses immediately conjured up some unpleasant images in their minds, and they hurriedly pushed Bai Mo to Orochimaru's side.
"Orochimaru, hurry! Or I'll kill you!"
"..."
boom.
Seeing the two disappear, the Three Goddesses breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed to the ground.
"You peeked too?"
Princess Ichikishima and Princess Takitsu looked at each other and spoke in unison.
If you don't peek, you won't know how wicked people can be, and you won't react this way.
Ignoring the three goddesses' disheveled state, the White Snake Immortal walked to the table, picked up the two books he had just dropped, and opened the book "Xu Xian, the Hero of the Grass Python".
"Damn toads, it was you who did it!"
Seeing that the main character was the White Snake, and that the curse words were "I'll fuck your immortal," the White Snake Immortal became even more certain that it must be the old toad making her yellow peaches.
"My sister, Green Snake? Hmm?"
Achoo!
Outside Ryuchi Cave, the sleeping green snake suddenly sneezed. After waking up, it looked around in confusion, thinking that someone had come to contract it as a spirit beast.
