Naruto: The Brightest Star

Chapter 151 The journey to the Land of Ghosts ends!

"Let me formally greet the young miko."

As the thin man in the distance finished his words, the ground vibrated and several huge stone men crawled up from the ground.

"Luckily, I came here with you. We are going to the other side, right?"

Uchiha Xing lowered his head and asked Shiwan.

"Ah."

Aster nodded slightly.

"Then let's go!"

Uchiha Xing said this and jumped directly to the opposite side. As for the stone giant rushing towards him and preparing to attack, Uchiha Xing directly used Storm Kicks and added wind attribute changes.

The man watched Uchiha Xing being destroyed very easily, and he didn't care too much, as if whether he could kill Shiyuan was up to fate. If he killed her, he would be lucky, and if he didn't, that would be it.

Soon, Uchiha Xing destroyed all the stone men in the Sealed Shrine, and soon Uchiha Xing brought Shiwan to where the man was.

Uchiha Xing put Shiwan down and looked at the other party warily.

"Is this all you have? You relied on outsiders to get here. In this respect, you are not as good as your mother. At least at that time, she protected the Ghost Country with her own strength and sealed me here."

The man looked at Aster calmly.

Listening to the man's words, Aster couldn't help but refute.

"I'm not incompetent! I keep doing it day after day..."

Before Aster could finish her words, she was interrupted by the man.

"Practicing the sealing technique?"

The man couldn't help but laugh softly as he spoke.

"In that case, then try to seal me up as soon as possible. Can you do it?"

The man looked at Aster with a slightly mocking look.

Ziyuan clenched her hands, took a deep breath, and encouraged herself.

"Don't worry, I will protect you."

Uchiha Xing reached out and patted Shiwan's shoulder.

"Ah."

Aster nodded slightly, then began to walk forward.

But her eyes were still looking at the man vigilantly.

The man couldn't help but laugh at this.

"Don't be too nervous. I can't kill you, but you don't have the power to make me disappear. If you ask why, it's because... we originally have the same body."

Ziyuan was stunned for a moment when she heard what the man said.

"Impossible! Are you trying to deceive me with lies? I won't be fooled!"

Aster said sharply, walking quickly towards the sealed area.

"Do I need to lie to you?"

The man said calmly.

"The so-called seal is to combine you and me into one, and your mother Miroku is like this. So, Miroku, your mother is in my body."

The man's words made Ziyuan stunned.

"The power of the witch was too strong. In order to avoid using that power to do wrong things, she split her heart and mind into two halves, and lived with grudges against each other. I don't know when they became the names of the witch and the demon."

"Words like light and dark, good and evil, etc. cannot be used to summarize us."

The man couldn't help but sound sarcastic.

Aster was not influenced by the man and started to seal directly.

Standing outside the barrier, Uchiha Xing's eyes fell on the man.

"You said that the so-called seal was carried out by generations of priestesses with their own lives. In this case, shouldn't you hope that the priestess dies? After all, no one can seal you. There is a loophole in your words. Even if you really came out of the priestess' body, you just came out of the priestess's mind. What does it have to do with Miss Aster?"

"Of course, because..."

Looking at the stone tablet rising in the barrier, the man's mouth curled up slightly. The moment the spell was finished, the man entered the barrier at an extremely fast speed and suppressed Aster.

"what!"

Ziyuan was startled by the man's sudden move and fell to the ground.

"Ms. Aster."

Uchiha Xing shouted, then rushed into the barrier, kicked the man away, and threw a kunai at the man's neck.

In an instant, the kunai pierced the man's neck.

However, after the man died, a creepy laugh was heard.

"Mistress Miko, you are too impatient. You should wait until this person dies before sealing him~"

Uchiha Xing let out a light click of his tongue, looking at the body of the man lying on the ground and the sound floating in the space.

"Tsk, that's troublesome."

So that guy's original intention was to get the sealed place.

Wait! I remember that the ghost was divided into two parts, one is the soul, which is sealed in the ghost country, and the other is the body, which is sealed in the swamp country!

So that's what's going on. After several days of hard times, Wuliang has not been resurrected successfully. Moreover, he has been here all this time, not busy unlocking the seal, but misleading others, making them think that he came here to unlock the seal himself and thus be resurrected.

But in fact, he wanted Aster to come over and remove the seal.

Really, who made the seal? The sealing and unlocking procedures are exactly the same.

Uchiha Xing kept complaining.

Ziyuan on the side seemed to have thought of something. She looked at the stone door that looked like a tomestone, was stunned for a moment, and then rushed towards the stone door, trying to stop it from opening.

However, Aster was still a step too late.

A black shadow emerged from the man's body and rushed towards the stone gate faster than Ziyuan.

"Oh!"

A powerful force rushed out from Shimen Village, knocking Ziyuan away and crashing heavily into the barrier.

"what!!!"

The electric current on the barrier instantly spread to Aster's entire body. Aster groaned in pain and seemed to fall to the ground.

"Ms. Aster, can you remove this barrier?"

Uchiha Xing frowned slightly as he looked at Shiwan who was kneeling on the ground, and took a quick step forward to start treating Shiwan's wounds.

"Hahaha~ Once this barrier is opened, it cannot be easily removed. If you want to remove it, there is only one condition, and that is that we two devour each other until one of us survives!"

"And what determines this is each other's chakra. So, Miss Miko, accept your fate. Your end will only be swallowed by me! Hahahaha!!!"

The ghost laughed excitedly and sarcastically.

"How could it be? Why is it different from what I dreamed of?"

Aster muttered softly.

"Quanzi, I'm sorry for getting you involved."

Shiwan looked at Uchiha Xing apologetically.

"Don't give up so easily. How can you be sure of the outcome before the end?"

As Uchiha Xing was speaking, the ground suddenly shook.

"You are not welcome here."

As Huang Quan finished speaking, countless chakra-powered worms with dragon heads began to attack Uchiha Xing.

Uchiha Xing hurriedly retreated, his body passed through the barrier, and he came out of the barrier unharmed.

It seems that this barrier can only trap the two of them.

"Quanzi..."

Shiwan actually breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Uchiha Xing leaving.

Quanzi is out, at least she will be fine.

As Ziyuan was thinking, the stone slab beneath her suddenly collapsed and she fell down, being wrapped by the power of the monster.

Uchiha Xing kept backing away, looking at the monster constructed of chakra.

"After all, you are just a creature born from chakra. And I specialize in treating all kinds of chakra creatures."

Uchiha Xing said as he took out his own gorgeous dagger - the Talisman that breaks the laws of all things.

Uchiha Xing waved the gorgeous dagger in his hand, eliminating all the approaching chakra dragons.

"Are you ready, Wuling~?"

Uchiha Xing smiled brightly at Wuliang and slashed at Shiyuan.

"Ding bell~"

Aster's bell suddenly rang, and she saw the scene she had seen in her dream again.

Ah!

Shiwan raised her head and looked at Uchiha Xing who was rushing towards her.

"Humph! Overestimating yourself!"

Wuliang spoke to Uchiha Xing in a mocking tone and didn't believe that Uchiha Xing could solve the problem at all.

Uchiha Xing was not angry about this and just slashed at Shiwan.

In an instant, the chakra that enveloped Aster shattered and disappeared.

Uchiha Xing raised his hand and grabbed Shiwan and pulled her out.

"Quanzi..."

Looking at Uchiha Xing's face illuminated by the fire, Shiwan couldn't help but feel touched.

A dark purple chakra tentacle came towards Uchiha Star.

"Give her to me!!!"

The monster screamed angrily and kept attacking Uchiha Xing.

A tentacle brushed across Uchiha Xing's face and cut off the strap of the goggles on Uchiha's face.

As Uchiha Xing hugged Shiwan, the goggles fell from Uchiha Xing's face. The wind blew Uchiha Xing's hair, and his blue eyes looked at the girl in his arms.

"I said, I will protect you."

Uchiha Xing smiled at Shiwan.

"Thumping!"

Aster felt her heart beating faster and faster.

What's going on? What's wrong with me?

Shiyuan felt her face getting hot. As if she was afraid that Uchiha Xing would find out, she buried her face in Uchiha Xing's neck.

"Ok?"

Uchiha Xing was slightly stunned when he saw Shiwan like this, thinking that she was scared, and he couldn't help but hugged Shiwan tighter to protect her.

"Hey! Do you really want to take Miss Aster with you? Sorry, I don't plan to give it to you."

Uchiha Xing said, holding the dagger, using flash step, and rushed towards the monster.

"You ant, do you think you can kill me?"

Wuliang's mocking tone was mixed with anger.

"Then give it a try."

Uchiha Xing flashed over extremely quickly and stabbed the opponent with a knife.

"What's going on? My power! My power!!!"

The monster yelled at me angrily, and countless chakra tentacles kept hitting everything around it.

The moment Uchiha Xing pulled out the dagger, countless cracks appeared on the monster's body.

Uchiha Xing carried Shiwan and left quickly.

"Do not!!!!"

With the last roar of the ghost, it completely disappeared.

But because the monster kept whipping everything around it, the lava cave began to collapse continuously.

Uchiha Xing put away the dagger and quickly left with Shiwan in his arms.

Not long after Uchiha Xing took Shiyuan out of the cave, the cave behind them collapsed.

The stone men outside all turned into rubble the moment the monsters disappeared.

"Izumi Jounin!"

Uzumaki Naruto couldn't help but wave when he saw Uchiha Xing carrying Shiwan out.

"Let's go! It's all done!"

Uchiha Hoshi shouted to them and took Shiwan to Ashio's side.

"Huh? How come?"

As the cave collapsed, the ground outside kept shaking, and the volcano began to shake and then spewed out lava.

"Ah! Ahhh! The volcano has erupted!"

Following Uzumaki Naruto's shout, everyone quickly left here.

"Ms. Aster!"

Shiho walked over quickly and looked at Shiwan with concern after she was put down by Uchiha Xing.

"Is Miss Aster okay?"

Zi Sui asked Zi Yuan worriedly.

"I am fine."

Shion said, her eyes sweeping across the Uchiha Star, then looking towards the erupting volcano in the distance.

"Izumi-jounin, what did you do to cause the volcano to erupt?"

Nara Shikamaru frowned slightly and looked at Uchiha Xing.

"I didn't do anything. I just had a fight with the guy inside. Then the guy was unwilling to give up, so he destroyed everything around him before he died. That's why the cave was destroyed and the volcano erupted. Well! It's all his fault!"

Uchiha Xing was frantically trying to shirk responsibility, saying it was not his problem anyway.

Watching the erupting volcano gradually calm down, Aster's somewhat restless heart gradually calmed down.

"Hmm~ It looks like this mission was completed perfectly!"

Uchiha Xing put one hand over his eyes, pretending to look out, and spoke with a smile while looking at the fire in the distance.

"Not yet, Sensei. We still need to send Miss Aster back."

Karin said from behind Uchiha Hoshi.

"I know, I know. It's not easy to send it back."

Uchiha Xing waved his hand to indicate that this was a simple matter.

"But, in this case, does that mean Miss Aster no longer needs to be a miko? After all, the ghosts have disappeared."

Uchiha Xing tilted his head and asked Shiwan.

"Hmm~"

Shiyuan shook her head, her eyes swept across Uchiha Xing, then immediately looked away and said: "No, I will continue to be a miko. Since the ghosts are formed from the heart, if you kill the ghosts in time, there will be a second ghost and a third ghost later."

"I have decided. I will become a better witch and prevent the monsters from appearing again."

"correct."

Aster raised her hand and tucked her hair behind her ear.

"If I need your help, will you come and help me?"

Shiwan said, her eyes constantly glancing towards Uchiha Hoshi.

"If you need me, you can always come to me."

Uchiha Xing looked at Shiwan with a smile.

As the leader of a country, you need to build good relationships and you will need their help in the future.

Hmm~ Speaking of which, I have already established good relations with the daimyo of the Wind Country, Fire Country, and Water Country. What remains is the daimyo of the other two countries.

As long as they are all dealt with, the other five hidden villages will be easily dealt with.

Uchiha Xing thought secretly in his heart, completely unaware of Shiwan's slightly red face.

Bang bang bang!

Ziyuan's heartbeat couldn't help but quicken again.

Why is this happening? Am I sick?

Shiwan shifted her gaze, not daring to look at Uchiha Xing.

"Let's go, I'm tired, I need to go back and have a good rest!"

Aster turned around and walked anxiously.

Um? ? ? ?

What is she in such a hurry to do?

There was a flash of confusion in Uchiha Xing's eyes, then he shrugged his shoulders and followed Shiwan.
