Of course, because of Uchiha Chiri's gentle and kind nature, she didn't let this Genjutsu become a never-ending killing move.
In other words, "Izanami" is not a true infinite loop. Killing someone might be easy for her, but her real purpose is to rewrite a person's Will from the inside, allowing them to truly find themselves.
[I hope readers remember our domain name Taiwan Novel Website→𝓉𝓌𝓀𝒶𝓃.𝒸ℴ𝓂]
"Izanagi" is to modify reality, turning all unfavorable negative situations that occur within a period of time into Genjutsu, only choosing things that are beneficial to oneself to turn into reality. It is a technique to change fate.
"Izanami" is to manipulate reality, trapping all operations that modify reality in a Genjutsu of eternal reincarnation, invalidating behaviors that escape reality or easily modify results. It is a technique to control fate.
But what truly determines fate is always the person trapped in the Genjutsu.
Therefore, this technique also prepares a way to escape reincarnation.
Only when the person subjected to the technique no longer escapes, sincerely repents, and genuinely chooses to accept the original ending, will the reincarnation created by "Izanami" naturally be dispelled, and the person subjected to the technique will consciously accept their fate.
So... the price is...
Zhi Li's left eye has completely turned into a pure white, and the beautiful Shamrock pattern that once existed has faded all its color, completely losing its sight.
In the Genjutsu world created by "Izanami", the Nth reincarnation.
Uchiha Naka unwillingly swung a knife. With a "bang", white smoke scattered in front of him, and two sections of wooden logs fell to the ground with a "clang".
A flash of the blade tore his chest open in response. In his tired eyes, his right eye turned a ghastly white, reality was modified, and he appeared in an open space without any warning.
Zhi Li looked at him calmly, her slender hand slightly loosened, and the tip of the knife plunged into the earth.
Naka gasped for breath, his forehead already covered in cold sweat. Looking at Zhi Li walking towards him step by step, he knew what would happen next without even thinking.
A faint sound came from under his feet, and Violet petals fluttered in the wind, with deep blue butterflies dancing gracefully. After that, Zhi Li reached out her fair hand from afar.
This scene is both an eternity repeated countless times and just like the first time they met.
Zhi Li's gaze was sincere, as if she would never tire.
Naka had been tortured to exhaustion. The killing intent, madness, and unwillingness in his heart had dissipated as early as dozens of reincarnations ago.
With a "clang", he dropped the short blade in his hand. This weapon, which had accompanied him in countless killings, was now discarded like worn-out shoes.
"Why, why..." He looked up at the sky, closing his eyes with a face full of frustration. "There shouldn't be a fate that Izanagi can't modify..."
Zhi Li softly opened her mouth, "Accept your fate, accept what you have done, and after acknowledging it, wait for your future."
Naka's face was full of intolerance, his eyebrows twitched, and he showed a sense of guilt for the first time. "My hands are already stained with blood, how could I possibly be forgiven by the Clan?"
He opened his eyes, and his originally blind right eye unexpectedly returned to its original state. In the scarlet pupils, a firm and gentle delicate face was reflected.
"Even so, you must accept it..."
Naka's face twisted, changing uncertainly. He gritted his teeth, picked up the short blade on the ground, and raised it high in the distance.
"Ahhhhh!"
The blade cut through the air, turning into a straight stream of light that pierced into the earth, emitting a harsh buzzing sound.
"I... don't want to rely on Izanagi anymore..."
Naka said tiredly, maintaining a kneeling posture, facing Zhi Li's outstretched jade hand. He took a deep breath, like a devout believer worshiping a god.
He raised his head, a long-lost fervor flashing in his eyes.
Zhi Li's small mouth was slightly open, the breeze stirring, her violet hair dancing lightly, and a hint of astonishment finally flickered across her exquisite face.
At that moment, she seemed to see again that young man full of ambition, the one who, fresh out of the gate, dared to stand up at the Uchiha Clan's most intense infighting, at a group meeting surrounded by powerful enemies and many covetous old tigers, the only one who supported her in opposing the internal strife.
"I choose to accept reality and move forward!"
Naka slightly raised his head to look up at Zhi Li. At this moment, there was no more arrogance or ruthlessness in his eyes, but the same sincerity as in Zhi Li's eyes.
He reached out a trembling hand and slowly and solemnly grasped Zhi Li's palm.
Zhi Li smiled sweetly, a flash of gratification in her eyes. From where their hands clasped, a great light erupted, and the intense white light quickly engulfed their figures, blurring all outlines.
Centered on the two of them, the entire world began to crumble inch by inch, turning into countless sprite-like motes of light that shot straight into the sky, like a torrential rain pouring upwards.
Naka couldn't help but squint his eyes. When his vision returned to normal, Zhi Li's beautiful figure immediately came into view.
She still had the same expression, but her left eye had lost all color, turning into a red and white heterochromatic eye like his own.
He gently held her fair and delicate hand, just like himself in the Genjutsu world.
Naka stood up and exhaled a long breath. "I now know what I should do. I will properly fulfill my duty... This foolish internal strife should end."
He dropped the short blade in his hand and strode out of the valley.
Zhi Li looked at his back, her expression complex, with gratification, exhaustion, a mix of sorrow and joy, but more than anything, a sense of relief from unloading a heavy burden.
"Kirito, sister did it..."
She murmured, voluntarily closing that pale eye, and took out a light violet eye patch she had prepared in advance, covering her left eye.
She didn't care how Naka would handle things afterward, because Izanami had completely made him face himself, no longer running away, no longer being presumptuous and arrogant. As long as he could regain everyone's approval, the Uchiha's internal strife would also come to an end.
"Kirito, next, sister is going to fulfill your wish before you died... to go and see the world outside the village, to see this prosperous world..."
She turned and walked in the opposite direction.
Leaving the Clan Territory, passing through the street corner, and walking to the bustling street, she subconsciously looked in that familiar direction.
That location, in the early years, was a breakfast shop with a good reputation. Later, with the passage of time, it grew larger and larger, and finally expanded into a well-known Izakaya.
About 15 years ago, it was here that she learned that "all men are created equal, and there is no distinction between high and low," and also learned that to know a person, you can't just rely on listening with your ears, you have to believe your own eyes.
Suddenly, she was slightly stunned. In a certain room on the second floor, someone was waving at her, looking very excited.
Cardiac arrest!
Zhi Li covered her heart, her pink and moist red lips trembling slightly. Wasn't that face the one she had been thinking about day and night?
"Kirito!!!!"
Her feet exerted force, and her figure shot directly into the second-floor window, landing precisely in a rather elegant private room.
At first, she thought it was all a Genjutsu, or a dream, but considering her Mangekyo Sharingan, there were indeed not many people in this world who could make her fall into a Genjutsu.
Kirito's familiar face was not much different from what she remembered, perhaps a little rounder and a little whiter.
She pinched herself hard, and it hurt, it hurt badly.
This is not a dream.
In an instant, she was surrounded by a huge wave of joy, this intense emotion filled her completely, leaving no room for pain, she felt like she was about to explode with happiness.
"Sister!"
Uchiha Kirito stepped forward, looking like he wanted to pounce into her arms, but he subconsciously glanced to the side, and paused this intimate action, scratching his head embarrassedly.
Zhi Li didn't care about anything, and pulled him into her arms, her soft peaks squeezing Kirito's face slightly out of shape.
"Sis, sis, I can't breathe a little, cough cough!"
Next to the window seat, Nian looked a little uneasy out the window, his eyes wandering around.
And the young man beside him, holding a glass of juice, leisurely enjoyed the drama of the siblings reuniting.
