"What do you mean?"
Seeing Izayoi's smile, Madara Uchiha suddenly had a bad premonition.
Izayoi raised his hands. Although he was at the same level as Madara, he adopted a condescending posture, his expression arrogant as he said, "As a descendant of a mixed-blood Otsutsuki, you simply don't understand how powerful the talents of the pure-blood Otsutsuki Clan truly are!"
Madara's expression immediately changed slightly. He instantly controlled a Truth-Seeking Ball to fly towards Izayoi, aiming to interrupt his Hand Seals.
Although he didn't know what Izayoi intended to do, Madara could deduce from the characteristics of Kaguya Otsutsuki, Isshiki Otsutsuki, and the Sage of Six Paths brothers that horned Otsutsuki were born with an advantage over those without horns.
The most typical examples were him and Toneri Otsutsuki.
His Rinnegan, which he awakened only in old age, also involved a large element of luck.
Meanwhile, Toneri Otsutsuki, who was still too young to drink in the Shinobi World, had not only already mastered the power of ultimate ocular techniques but could also effortlessly use Truth-Seeking Balls, which he himself had only obtained after receiving the Sage of Six Paths' legacy and absorbing Priestess Power.
Regarding these chosen ones who were practically at the finish line from birth, no one knew if they had other hidden trump cards.
After all, the scenes in the genjutsu world were only what Izayoi wanted him to see.
He had no idea how many things Izayoi didn't want him to see!
Interrupting his actions was the best choice.
The flying Truth-Seeking Ball hadn't even gotten close to Izayoi before it began to emit a dazzling white light.
The power of annihilation contained within it seemed as if it would erupt in the next instant.
Madara controlled his other Truth-Seeking Balls to liquefy and form a black sphere. Before his body was enveloped, he also used Limbo: Border Jail to create four shadows. If Izayoi used the Truth-Seeking Ball for defense, the Limbo Shadows would use Six Paths Sage Art to attack him.
Izayoi scoffed, then his figure vanished without a trace.
With a loud bang, a dazzling pure white light bloomed in the universe, its area astonishingly large.
The meteorites engulfed by the pure white light didn't turn to dust at a visible speed; instead, they were instantly reduced to nothingness, as if erased by the power of a rule.
Madara, hiding inside the Truth-Seeking Ball, seemed to sense something, and his expression suddenly changed drastically.
He saw Izayoi appear out of thin air on a meteorite outside the area covered by the pure white light.
It turned out that during the two days and two nights of fighting, Izayoi had already left Flying Thunder God Technique Formulas in many areas.
With the Chakra Rosary, Izayoi didn't need to touch something to leave a Flying Thunder God Technique Formula.
He could turn the Chakra Rosary into green light spheres and shoot them out. The spheres could not only explode and damage targets, but the power of creation contained within them could also transform into Flying Thunder God Technique Formulas, adhering to objects touched by the light of creation.
After unlocking the Sky Control (Red) perk, although Izayoi still couldn't create space-time portals, Yomotsu Hirasaka, or Space-Time Passages of that magnitude, with complete Yin-Yang Release and the Chakra Rosary, he could not only perform various variations of the Heavenly Transfer Technique and the Flying Thunder God Technique but had also developed a space-time teleportation array similar to Hamura Otsutsuki's.
Izayoi raised his hand and formed a single Hand Seal. Then, the rosary bracelet around his wrist immediately sent out seven Chakra Rosary beads, shimmering with greenish-blue light, which landed on the meteorite beneath his feet.
A seven-layered overlapping technique array instantly appeared out of thin air.
As a dazzling white light shone, a Wood Clone that had not only disguised itself as Toneri Otsutsuki using Wood Clone but had also specifically absorbed Toneri Otsutsuki's chakra instantly appeared beside Izayoi.
However, this Wood Clone's chakra level was over a hundred times that of Izayoi's.
This was precisely the reason for Madara's sudden change in expression.
Watching Madara, who had already emerged from the Truth-Seeking Ball and was rapidly flying towards Earth, Izayoi placed his hand on the Wood Clone's shoulder, absorbing the Yin Nine Tails chakra within its body, while a playful smile appeared on his face. "The cat and mouse game has officially begun!"
After absorbing all the chakra from the Wood Clone's body and before it automatically dispersed, he used a Truth-Seeking Ball to turn it into nothingness. A dazzling greenish-blue aura surged around Izayoi again, quickly enveloping his entire body.
After activating Tenseigan Chakra Mode, Izayoi didn't immediately pursue Madara. Instead, he first replenished the number of Chakra Rosary beads, then created a metal object inscribed with a Flying Thunder God Technique Formula from a Chakra Rosary bead, and used the Heavenly Transfer Technique to air-drop it above Madara.
The next second, Izayoi appeared directly above Madara's head.
Madara seemed to have sensed Izayoi's movements long ago. Almost the moment he appeared, Madara looked up and spat out a purple laser beam capable of cutting through Truth-Seeking Balls, intending to catch Izayoi off guard and split him in two.
Unfortunately, Izayoi, having unlocked Sky Control (Red), had no delay whatsoever in his teleportation.
Moreover, before teleporting, Izayoi had already grabbed a Truth-Seeking Ball and covered it with the black substance of a Chakra Rosary.
As soon as he appeared, Izayoi also turned the Truth-Seeking Ball into a golden light mass and shot a massive golden beam towards Madara.
The golden beam and the purple laser collided. There was no struggle between them; the latter was directly blasted away by the former.
During the two days and two nights of fighting, Madara had not used Sage Art: Storm Release Light Fang or collided with Izayoi's golden light sword, so he was completely unprepared for this scene.
The golden beam, moving like a flash of light, almost instantly filled Madara's vision.
If his body were engulfed by this beam, even Madara would be dead or severely injured.
After all, this beam contained the properties of a Truth-Seeking Ball, possessing the power to reduce things to nothingness.
Even if it touched the soul, that part would be permanently lost.
Even the Yang Release and Yin-Yang Release Technique, which could create eyes, would have difficulty recovering soul injuries.
Just as the golden beam was about to hit Madara, it suddenly stopped less than five centimeters away, as if it had hit an invisible wall.
Then, this invisible wall, along with Madara, was sent flying backward.
And the next second, this invisible wall was also shattered.
In the eyes of Izayoi and Madara, it was the Limbo Shadows being blasted apart, unable to even reform.
However, taking advantage of this opportunity, Madara had already met the attack with his Six Paths Staff, colliding with the golden beam.
Thanks to the boost from the Yang power, the Six Paths Staff and the golden beam remained evenly matched.
Just as Madara Uchiha was about to repeat his previous tactic, summoning his other three Limbo Shadows to sneak attack Izayoi while he was locked in a struggle with him, Izayoi's mouth curved slightly upwards. Then, the remaining six Truth-Seeking Balls beside him all flew over.
The Chakra Rosary wrapped around his wrist also flew out completely at this moment, shining with dazzling blue-green light and merging into the six Truth-Seeking Balls.
The next second, these six Truth-Seeking Balls simultaneously burst forth with lights of different colors, merging into the golden beam one after another.
The volume of the golden beam instantly surged several times, transforming from a golden beam into a colorful rainbow light pillar.
"Ahhhhh..."
The surge in terrifying power made Madara Uchiha show a strained expression, and the Six Paths Staff in his hand even bent into a curved shape.
The usually aloof Shinobi World Asura actually showed a rare ferocious expression, using a roar to boost his power.
The three Limbo Shadows each used their strongest techniques, joining the main body to resist the enormous rainbow light pillar.
However, the tug-of-war scene didn't last even two seconds before Madara Uchiha's figure was sent flying backward.
A beam of rainbow light continuously extended and lengthened in the dark universe, like a divine brush drawing a straight rainbow line on a black canvas filled with light dots of various sizes.
Wherever it passed, many light dots were submerged and replaced by the rainbow line.
During this time, pure white light also blossomed around the line, like an eraser, wiping away the surrounding light dots.
The actual scene was that Madara Uchiha, unwilling to be sent flying from the Moon to the Shinobi World again like last time by Izayoi, chose to detonate all his Truth-Seeking Balls, wanting to use the pure white light that annihilated everything to shatter this rainbow light pillar.
The result was naturally both successful and unsuccessful.
The success was that the pure white light from the self-destruction of the Truth-Seeking Balls still possessed the power to destroy all things.
The combined power of several self-destructing Truth-Seeking Balls did indeed wipe away the color of the rainbow light pillar.
The failure was that just as the rainbow light pillar was about to disappear into nothingness, the dazzling rainbow light recovered again.
The light pillar created by the Truth-Seeking Balls and the Chakra Rosary could be infinitely created as long as Izayoi had enough Chakra.
The pure white light and the rainbow light constantly tried to engulf each other, turning the other into their own color.
Unfortunately, the pure white light's endurance was too poor. It disappeared after only a short while.
And during this time, Madara Uchiha also failed to escape the attack range of the light pillar while the rainbow light pillar was slightly weakened.
When the pure white light disappeared, the thrust of the rainbow light pillar not only returned to its original state but also seemed to become stronger.
Madara Uchiha could only choose to liquefy the Six Paths Staff in his hand, turning it into a hemispherical shield, continuously pouring his remaining Chakra into it, preventing the black shield from being shattered by the rainbow light pillar.
Coupled with the assistance of the Limbo Shadows, he did successfully withstand the attack of the rainbow light pillar.
Compared to the golden beam last time, this rainbow light pillar was not only more powerful but also several times faster.
Before Limbo even entered its cooldown, Madara Uchiha had already flown a very, very long distance in the universe.
A rainbow light line, countless kilometers long, was so conspicuous in this dark universe.
Unfortunately, there were no other life forms around, so no one could appreciate such a sight.
Finally, this rainbow-colored line came to a light ball that was infinitely larger than the light dots representing meteorites, then plunged into the light ball and dispersed. After wiping away a small area, it finally stopped advancing.
It was as if the rainbow ink of the divine brush had dried up.
The actual scene was that Madara Uchiha was blasted onto a planet by the rainbow light pillar, just like the last time he was knocked down from the Moon to Earth.
However, unlike the Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion last time, which only blasted a not-too-big, not-too-small hole in the ground, this time the rainbow light landing on this planet was like a giant meteorite falling, exploding with dazzling rainbow light that spread out in all directions like a tidal wave.
After the rainbow light dissipated, a basin of astonishing size appeared on the surface of this planet.
Compared to this super basin, Madara Uchiha lying at the bottom of the basin was as tiny as an ant lying on an adult's palm.
Unlike last time when his appearance was completely unharmed, only suffering a not-too-heavy internal injury, Madara Uchiha's condition was very bad this time after being knocked down onto this planet.
His red armor and clothes had long since evaporated and disappeared in the high temperature. Even some flesh and skin on the right side of his body had turned to ash, revealing the wriggling and growing meridians and burnt and broken bones.
His long black hair had long since turned bald, and even the back of his head was indented. His eyes were unfocused, his consciousness was incredibly heavy, and he could fall into eternal sleep at any moment.
Fortunately, Madara Uchiha exerted all his strength and ultimately was not engulfed by the rainbow light. Otherwise, he would have been reduced to dust like the surrounding ground in all directions, or even turned into nothingness before landing.
At this moment, Madara Uchiha could no longer feel his body.
The only thing he could still feel was the hand with the sun mark flashing with faint light.
As luck would have it, Madara Uchiha's gaze could just see Earth.
"Was... was I already this far away?"
Seeing Earth again after two days and two nights, Madara Uchiha couldn't even speak. He could only show a bitter smile and murmur in his heart, "I never expected that even death wouldn't allow me to die on the land of my birth."
"What a shame... I couldn't kill those Otsutsuki and resolve the potential crisis of the Shinobi World!"
Just as Madara Uchiha was about to take one last look at Earth and replay some past memories in his mind, his palm suddenly felt warm. Then, a strange yet somewhat familiar life force suddenly made his consciousness a little clearer.
Since he was still in Sage of Six Paths Mode, Madara Uchiha subconsciously released his senses. After failing to detect Izayoi's Chakra, he struggled to lift his blood-stained hand and formed a Hand Seal with one hand.
"Sum... Summoning Jutsu!"
Madara Uchiha attempted the technique.
With a bang, white mist billowed and dispersed, and a monster resembling a human appeared out of thin air in the basin.
Even a monster as massive as a mountain seemed tiny within this super basin.
Gazing at the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, successfully summoned here from Earth, Madara Uchiha couldn't help but twitch his lips, forcing a difficult smile as he said, "I... I haven't com... completely lost yet!"
As Madara Uchiha's words fell, a white tube extended from the body of the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.
Like the life support from decades ago, Madara Uchiha's body connected to the white tube of the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. His life force, which had been flickering like a candle flame and could be extinguished at any moment, began to slowly recover and completely stabilized.
With a bang, both Madara Uchiha and the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path transformed into a ball of white mist and vanished from the planet.
Due to the distance exceeding the Tenseigan's visual range, Izayoi did not witness this scene.
Even if he had, he wouldn't have cared.
Because at this moment, Izayoi was sitting on a throne created from Chakra Rosaries, staring at his personal panel with a conflicted expression, seemingly caught in a difficult decision.
When Madara Uchiha lost control of his body and entertained the thought of accepting death, a colorful beam of light, along with one red and one purple beam, flew out from him, unseen even by himself.
These three beams, traveling at a speed surpassing the rainbow light pillar, quickly flew before Izayoi and permeated his body.
Ding! You have obtained the Talent Trait [Kekkei Genkai: Rinnegan (Rainbow)]. Merge or Disintegrate?
Ding! You have obtained the Talent Trait [Sage Body (Red)]. Merge or Disintegrate?
Ding! You have obtained the Talent Trait [Summoning Master (Purple)]. Merge or Disintegrate?
The Sage Body (Red) and Summoning Master (Purple) traits had already been disintegrated by Izayoi.
His point balance had also surpassed the 700,000 mark.
However, it was still a considerable distance from 990,000 points.
The reason for Izayoi's conflict was his hesitation about whether to disintegrate the Kekkei Genkai: Rinnegan (Rainbow) into points.
Disintegrating a red trait would randomly yield a six-figure number of points.
Izayoi had not yet disintegrated a rainbow trait and didn't know how many points it would give.
If the mechanism was the same, it should be a seven-figure number of points.
Randomly obtaining millions of points, even with the worst luck, would yield over one million points, enough to upgrade a red trait to rainbow as a baseline.
If his luck was good, he might even get 9.99 million points, which would truly be a massive amount of points.
Not to mention upgrading one red trait, he could upgrade even ten red traits to rainbow traits.
At that time, he might even be able to solve a puzzle: Was there a higher level above the Otsutsuki Bloodline (Rainbow)?
Izayoi was incredibly tempted.
But if he was extremely unlucky, he would only get the baseline.
He didn't know when he would have another chance to obtain the Rinnegan.
Therefore, Izayoi was so hesitant.
"Fortune favors the bold, cowardice starves... Anyway, I already have the Tenseigan and Sage of Six Paths Mode, I'll gamble!"
After only a few minutes of hesitation, Izayoi made his decision and let out a low shout, "Disintegrate!"
