Chapter 179: Kekkei Genkai: Rinnegan (Rainbow)
"What do you mean?"
Seeing Izayoi's smile, Uchiha Madara suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Izayoi raised his hands, and though seemingly at eye level with Uchiha Madara, he adopted a condescending posture, stating arrogantly, "As a descendant of a mixed-blood Ōtsutsuki, you simply don't understand how powerful the talent of a pure-blooded Ōtsutsuki clan member truly is!"
Uchiha Madara's expression immediately changed slightly. He instantly manipulated a Truth-Seeking Orb to fly towards Izayoi, wanting to interrupt his hand signs.
Although he didn't know what Izayoi intended, Uchiha Madara, observing the characteristics of Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, and the Sage of Six Paths and his brother, could deduce that horned Ōtsutsuki were born with a significant advantage over those without horns.
The most typical example was himself and "Ōtsutsuki Toneri."
His own Rinnegan, awakened only in old age, largely depended on luck.
Whereas 'Ōtsutsuki Toneri,' who was not even old enough to drink in the ninja world, had not only mastered the power of ultimate dōjutsu long ago but also effortlessly used Truth-Seeking Orbs, which Madara himself needed the Sage of Six Paths' inheritance and the Miko's power to obtain.
For such chosen individuals, who seemed to have almost reached the pinnacle at birth, no one knew what other trump cards they might be hiding.
After all, the scenes in the genjutsu world were only what Izayoi wanted him to see.
He had no idea how much more Izayoi chose not to show him!
Interrupting his actions was the best choice.
The launched Truth-Seeking Orb had not yet approached Izayoi before it began to glow with dazzling white light.
The power of annihilation contained within it seemed poised to erupt at any moment.
Uchiha Madara manipulated the other Truth-Seeking Orbs 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 Truth-Seeking Orbs for defense, the Limbo shadows would use Six Paths Sage Art to attack him.
Izayoi scoffed, and his figure vanished without a trace.
With a deafening boom, dazzling pure white light bloomed in the cosmos, covering an astonishing area.
The meteorites engulfed by the pure white light did not visibly turn to dust. Instead, as if erased by a power of rules, they instantly vanished into nothingness.
Uchiha Madara, hidden inside the Truth-Seeking Orb, sensed something and his expression suddenly changed.
In an area not covered by the pure white light, Izayoi appeared out of thin air on a meteorite.
It turned out that during the two days and two nights of battle, Izayoi had already laid down Flying Thunder God Jutsu formulas in many areas.
With Chakra Beads, Izayoi didn't even need to touch an object to leave a Flying Thunder God Jutsu formula.
He could transform the Chakra Beads into green light orbs and shoot them. The orbs could not only explode and damage targets, but the creative power within them could also transform into Flying Thunder God Jutsu formulas, adhering to any objects touched by the light of creation.
After unlocking the Levitation (Red) Entry, while Izayoi still couldn't create space-time portals, or Yomotsu Hirasaka, or the extent of creating spatial pathways, he could, by virtue of complete Onmyoton and Chakra Beads, not only perform various variations of the Heavenly Transfer Technique and Flying Thunder God Jutsu, but also develop a space-time teleportation array similar to Ōtsutsuki Hamura's.
Izayoi made an incomplete hand seal, and then seven Chakra Beads from the string on his wrist flew out, glowing with greenish-blue light, landing on the meteorite beneath his feet.
A seven-layered superimposed jutsu array immediately appeared out of thin air.
As dazzling white light shone forth, a Wood Clone, which had not only disguised itself as Ōtsutsuki Toneri but also specifically absorbed Ōtsutsuki Toneri's chakra, instantly appeared beside Izayoi.
However, the chakra reserves of this Wood Clone were over a hundred times greater than Izayoi's.
This was precisely why Uchiha Madara's expression drastically changed.
Looking at Uchiha Madara, who had already emerged from the Truth-Seeking Orb and was rapidly flying towards Earth, Izayoi placed his hand on the Wood Clone's shoulder, absorbing the Yin Kurama chakra within it, while smiling playfully, "The cat-and-mouse game has officially begun!"
After absorbing all the chakra from the Wood Clone, and before it automatically dispersed, Izayoi used a Truth-Seeking Orb to turn it into nothingness. Dazzling greenish-blue chakra once again surged around Izayoi, rapidly enveloping his entire body.
After activating Tenseigan Chakra Mode, Izayoi didn't immediately pursue Uchiha Madara. Instead, he first replenished the number of Chakra Beads, then used a Chakra Bead to create a metal object inscribed with the Flying Thunder God Jutsu formula, which he then air-dropped above Uchiha Madara using the Heavenly Transfer Technique.
The next second, Izayoi appeared directly above Uchiha Madara.
Uchiha Madara seemed to have already sensed Izayoi's movements. Almost at the moment of his appearance, he looked up and spat out a purple laser capable of severing a Truth-Seeking Orb, hoping to catch Izayoi off guard and slice him in two.
Unfortunately, Izayoi, who had unlocked Levitation (Red), had no stiffness in his teleportation.
Moreover, before teleporting, Izayoi had already grabbed a Truth-Seeking Orb and covered its surface with the black substance of Chakra Beads.
Upon appearing, Izayoi similarly transformed the Truth-Seeking Orb into a golden light mass and shot a massive golden beam of light at Uchiha Madara.
The golden beam of light and the purple laser collided. There was no struggle; the latter was directly dispersed by the former.
Throughout these two days and two nights of battle, Uchiha Madara had not used Sage Art: Storm Release: Light Fang to clash with Izayoi's golden light sword, so he had no anticipation of such a sight.
The golden light beam, moving with lightning speed, instantly filled Uchiha Madara's vision.
If his body were to be engulfed by this beam, even Uchiha Madara would be either dead or severely injured.
After all, this beam contained the properties of a Truth-Seeking Orb, possessing the power to reduce matter to nothingness.
Even if the soul were to touch it, that part would be permanently lost.
Even the Yang Release and Onmyoton Jutsu that could create eyes would struggle to heal soul injuries.
Just as the golden light beam was about to hit Uchiha Madara, it suddenly stopped less than five centimeters away, as if hitting an invisible wall.
Then this invisible wall, along with Uchiha Madara, was sent flying backward.
And the next second, this invisible wall was also shattered.
In Izayoi's and Uchiha Madara's eyes, it meant that the Limbo shadow had been dispersed, unable to even reform.
However, seizing this opportunity, Uchiha Madara, wielding the Six Paths Staff, surged forward to meet the attack, clashing with the golden light beam.
With the boost of Yang Release, the Six Paths Staff and the golden light beam remained evenly matched.
Just as Uchiha Madara was about to repeat his trick, summoning his other three Limbo shadows to ambush Izayoi while he was locked in a struggle,
Izayoi's lips curved slightly, and then the remaining six Truth-Seeking Orbs beside him all flew over.
The Chakra Bead bracelet around his wrist also flew off completely, glowing with dazzling greenish-blue light, and merged into the six Truth-Seeking Orbs.
The next second, these six Truth-Seeking Orbs simultaneously burst forth with different colored lights, integrating into the golden light beam one after another.
The volume of the golden light beam instantly increased several times, and it transformed from a golden beam into a multicolored rainbow light pillar.
"Ahhh..."
The terrifying power surged, causing Uchiha Madara to show a strained expression. The Six Paths Staff in his hand even bent.
The usually stoic Shinobi no Kami actually displayed a rare look of ferocity, roaring to increase his strength.
The three Limbo shadows each used their strongest techniques, joining their main body to resist the colossal rainbow light pillar.
However, the struggle lasted less than two seconds before Uchiha Madara's figure was sent flying backward.
A rainbow light, countless kilometers long, continuously extended in the dark cosmos, like a divine brush drawing a straight rainbow line on a black canvas dotted with varying light points.
Wherever it passed, many light points were engulfed and replaced by the rainbow line.
During this, pure white light also bloomed around the line, like an eraser, wiping away the surrounding light points.
The actual scene was that Uchiha Madara, unwilling to be struck from the moon back to the ninja world as he was last time, chose to detonate all his Truth-Seeking Orbs, aiming to use the pure white light of annihilation to shatter the rainbow light pillar.
The result was, naturally, both success and failure.
Success because the pure white light from the Truth-Seeking Orbs' self-detonation still possessed the power to destroy all creation.
The combined power of several self-detonating Truth-Seeking Orbs indeed erased the color of the rainbow light pillar.
Failure because just as the rainbow light pillar was about to vanish into nothingness, the dazzling rainbow light recovered.
A light pillar created by Truth-Seeking Orbs and Chakra Beads could be infinitely recreated as long as Izayoi had enough chakra.
The pure white light and the rainbow light continuously tried to engulf each other, transforming the other into their own color.
Unfortunately, the pure white light's endurance was too poor; it dissipated after only a short while.
And during this time, Uchiha Madara also failed to escape the light pillar's attack range while it was slightly weakened.
By the time the pure white light disappeared, the rainbow light pillar's pushing force not only returned to its original state but seemed to have grown even stronger.
Uchiha Madara could only 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.
With the assistance of the Limbo shadows, he indeed managed to withstand the rainbow light pillar's attack.
Compared to the previous golden beam, this rainbow light pillar was not only more powerful but also several times faster.
Limbo had not yet entered its cooldown, and Uchiha Madara had already flown a considerable distance in the cosmos.
A rainbow light line, kilometers long, stood out vividly in this dark universe.
Unfortunately, there were no other life forms around to appreciate such a sight.
Finally, this rainbow-colored line reached a celestial body, a light sphere many times larger than the light points representing meteorites. It then entered the sphere and dispersed, erasing a small area before finally ceasing its advance.
It was as if the divine brush's rainbow ink had dried up.
The actual scene was that Uchiha Madara was blasted onto a planet by the rainbow light pillar, just as he was last time when he was struck from the moon to Earth.
However, unlike the previous Golden Wheel Reincarnation Explosion, which only created a small to medium-sized crater on the ground,
This time, the rainbow light pillar struck the planet like a colossal meteorite impact, erupting with dazzling rainbow light that spread out in all directions like ocean waves.
When the rainbow light dissipated, a basin of astonishing size was revealed on the planet's surface.
Compared to this super basin, Uchiha Madara, lying at its bottom, seemed as tiny as an ant in an adult's palm.
Unlike last time, when he suffered no external injuries but sustained internal damage, Uchiha Madara's condition after being struck onto this planet was extremely dire.
His red armor and clothes had already evaporated in the intense heat. Even some flesh and skin on his right side had turned to ash, revealing writhing, growing meridians and scorched, fractured bones.
His long black hair had already turned bald, and even the back of his head was dented in a circle. His eyes were unfocused, and his consciousness was incredibly heavy, poised to fall into eternal slumber at any moment.
Fortunately, Uchiha Madara, by expending all his might, ultimately avoided being engulfed by the rainbow light, otherwise, he would have been reduced to dust like the surrounding earth, or even vanished into nothingness before landing.
At this moment, Uchiha Madara could no longer feel his body.
The only sensation he still had was the slightly glowing sun mark on his palm.
Coincidentally, Uchiha Madara's gaze happened to fall upon Earth.
"So... so far away already?"
Seeing Earth again after two days and two nights, Uchiha Madara couldn't even speak. He could only manage a bitter smile, murmuring in his heart, "To think that even death cannot claim me on the land of my birth."
"What a shame... I couldn't kill those Ōtsutsuki and resolve the potential crisis of the ninja world!"
Just as Uchiha Madara was about to take one last look at Earth, replaying past memories in his mind,
His palm suddenly warmed, and then a strange yet somewhat familiar life force suddenly cleared his consciousness slightly.
Still in Six Paths Sage Mode, Uchiha Madara instinctively released his perception. After failing to detect Izayoi's chakra, he painstakingly raised his blood-stained hand and formed a single hand sign.
"Sum... Summoning Jutsu!"
Uchiha Madara attempted to perform the jutsu tentatively.
With a bang, white mist billowed and then dispersed, and a human-like monster appeared out of thin air in the basin.
Even a monster as large as a mountain appeared tiny in this super basin.
Looking at the Gedō Mazō successfully summoned from Earth to here, Uchiha Madara couldn't help but twitch his lips, forcing out a difficult smile. "I... I haven't quite... quite lost yet!"
As Uchiha Madara's words fell, a white tube extended from the Gedō Mazō's body.
Like a lifeline from decades ago, Uchiha Madara's body connected to the Gedō Mazō's white tube. His life force, which had been flickering like a candle flame, poised to extinguish at any moment, now stabilized, slowly recovering.
With a bang, Uchiha Madara and the Gedō Mazō simultaneously transformed into a puff of white smoke, vanishing from this 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 Beads, staring at his personal panel, his face filled with a conflicted expression, seemingly caught in a dilemma.
When Uchiha Madara lost control of his body and had thoughts of accepting death, a rainbow-colored beam of light, invisible even to himself, flew out from his body, along with a red and a purple beam.
These three beams, at a speed surpassing even the rainbow light pillar, rapidly flew towards Izayoi and permeated his body.
"Ding! You have obtained the Talent Trait: Kekkei Genkai: Rinnegan (Rainbow). Fuse or Disassemble?"
"Ding! You have obtained the Talent Trait: Sage Body (Red). Fuse or Disassemble?"
"Ding! You have obtained the Talent Trait: Summoning Master (Purple). Fuse or Disassemble?"
The Sage Body (Red) and Summoning Master (Purple) Entry had already been disassembled by Izayoi.
His point balance had also broken through the 700,000 mark.
However, it was still a considerable distance from 990,000 points.
Izayoi's dilemma was whether to disassemble the Kekkei Genkai: Rinnegan (Rainbow) for points.
Disassembling a red Entry would randomly yield six-figure points.
Izayoi had never disassembled a rainbow Entry before, and he didn't know how many points it would yield.
If the mechanism was the same, it should be a seven-figure amount.
Randomly obtaining millions of points, even with the worst luck, would still yield over a million points, enough to upgrade a red Entry to a rainbow one.
If he was lucky, he might even get 9.99 million points, which would truly be an astronomical amount.
Not to mention upgrading one red Entry, he could even upgrade ten red Entry to rainbow Entry.
At that point, he might even be able to solve a mystery: was there an even higher tier above Ōtsutsuki Bloodline (Rainbow)?
Izayoi was incredibly tempted.
But if he was extremely unlucky, he would only get the minimum.
The next time he wanted to obtain the Rinnegan, he didn't know when that would be.
Therefore, Izayoi was so hesitant.
"Fortune favors the bold, while the timid starve... Anyway, I already have the Tenseigan and Six Paths Sage Mode. I'll bet on it!"
After only a few minutes of hesitation, Izayoi made his decision and whispered, "Disassemble!
