Chapter 2: Mirror Flower Water Moon, Cultivation Technique, and Sage Mode
System, as a novel reader, I'm well aware.
The previous two books by the old scoundrel Qingjiao, "Douluo's System of Stealing from Ten Thousand Worlds" and "Battle Through the Heavens' Exchange System," were both system-based novels. The protagonists, with the help of the system, constantly showed off, slapped faces, eventually had many wives and concubines, dominated everything, and reached the pinnacle of life.
But what's with this lolicon? Is it trying to make me go down a path of illegal activities? A married woman or a mature woman would be fine too.
However, this Mirror Flower Water Moon is quite good. It's the zanpakuto of Aizen Sousuke, the big boss of the Shinigami World. With it, even if I can't reach the level of Lord Aizen, at least very few people in this world will be able to harm me.
Just as Qianye was complaining in his mind, Uchiha Izumi walked over and sat beside him. "Qianye-kun, what are you thinking about?"
"Nothing, nothing..." Qianye's gaze towards Uchiha Izumi was a bit guilty.
"Qianye-kun, I just heard Itachi say that your family also... Actually, when something like this happens, you don't have to keep it bottled up. You can cry it all out. My mom and dad, they also..."
Uchiha Izumi spoke to comfort him, but even as she spoke, she herself started crying first.
And just then, the system's prompt sounded again:
"Ding, as the strongest lolicon, how can you just watch the little loli in front of you be sad?"
"1. Comfort the little loli. Reward: Tiangang skill from the Bad Guys World."
"2. Ignore her. Reward: Danzo's old underwear from the Naruto World."
"Does a martial arts world cultivation technique work in this world? But what's with this Danzo?" Qianye's mouth twitched fiercely, and he could only sigh and comfort her, gently stroking Uchiha Izumi's small head, and softly saying, "It's okay, cry, just cry it out. Everything will be fine after you cry. I think if your family were still alive, they would definitely be happy to see you safe and sound."
He definitely didn't want that old scoundrel Danzo's underwear.
Hearing Qianye's words, Izumi could no longer hold back and burst into tears in Qianye's arms.
The surrounding refugees, hearing the girl's heartbreaking cries, also thought of their lost loved ones and began to cry in unison.
For a moment, the vast shelter, from eighty-year-old grandmothers to Uchiha Sasuke, was filled with wailing.
And just then, the system's prompt sounded again in Qianye's mind:
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the mission. Reward: zanpakuto Mirror Flower Water Moon. Do you want to extract it now?"
"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the mission. Reward: Cultivation technique Tiangang skill. Do you want to extract it now?"
"It was snatched so quickly?" Qianye looked at the little loli crying in his arms, then at Uchiha Itachi, who was looking anxious in the distance and constantly coaxing Sasuke, and couldn't help but be surprised.
What he didn't know was that in the original work, the reason Uchiha Izumi liked Uchiha Itachi wasn't because he was so excellent, but more because Uchiha Itachi, during the Nine-Tailed Fox Incident, when her heart was most helpless and desperate, suddenly appeared like a hero and saved her.
Hero saving beauty, this phrase is never outdated anywhere.
Not to mention Uchiha Izumi, who was just in the budding stage of emotions.
"Do not extract for now." He still didn't know how the rewards would be distributed. If a zanpakuto and a secret manual suddenly appeared, he would surely be targeted by Konoha.
One must know that to monitor the Uchiha Clan, there were many Anbu Ninja hidden around!
That old scoundrel Danzo loved collecting special abilities the most.
After a while, Uchiha Izumi had cried enough. With a slightly red face, she got up from Qianye's embrace, her voice still a little tearful, "Sorry, I was supposed to comfort you, but I ended up crying first."
Qianye shook his head, indicating it was fine. He looked up towards the direction of the Nine-Tailed's roar until the sound suddenly disappeared, then withdrew his gaze, muttering in his heart, "It looks like it's almost over."
Ultimately, the Nine-Tailed Fox Incident ended at the cost of the Fourth Hokage and his wife, as well as countless Ninja.
From then on, the Fourth Hokage of Konoha Village, the Golden Flash of the Ninja World, the legendary Ninja Minato Namikaze, passed away.
It is said that to protect the Village, he sealed the powerful Nine-Tailed that had almost destroyed Konoha, at the cost of his life.
The entire Ninja World was deeply moved by his spirit of sacrificing everything for the Village.
Of course, while there was emotion, there were certainly many who secretly gloated.
People like Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki, Fourth Kazekage Rasa, and Konoha's own Ninja Danzo, were all eager for the Fourth Hokage's sacrifice.
The former two were happy about the weakening of Konoha's power, while Danzo was purely because the Fourth Hokage died, and he felt he had a chance to rise to power.
At the same time, in Konoha Village, the conflict within the Uchiha Clan, which had just begun to ease its relationship with Konoha after the Fourth Hokage took office, erupted again.
The Konoha higher-ups, led by Danzo, openly expressed strong suspicion towards the Uchiha Clan.
They accused members of the Uchiha Clan of controlling the Nine-Tailed to cause the Nine-Tailed Fox Incident.
The Uchiha Clan's territory was forcibly relocated to the edge of Konoha, far from the Village center, and even Anbu surveillance was increased.
Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi knew this would cause dissatisfaction among the Uchiha Clan towards Konoha, but still chose to tacitly approve Danzo's actions.
From then on, the conflict between the Uchiha Clan and Konoha gradually became almost irreconcilable.
The next day, Konoha held a grand funeral for the Fourth Hokage and his wife, and many sacrificed Ninja.
After Hiruzen Sarutobi's impassioned and tragic speech.
Konoha began its vigorous reconstruction.
Because Qianye's original parents were both Ninja, and his father sacrificed himself while intercepting the Nine-Tailed, he was not sent to an orphanage like ordinary civilians, but was assigned a separate residence.
He could regularly receive a subsidy that was enough to keep him from starving, but not enough to live comfortably, until he graduated from the Ninja Academy.
However, Qianye didn't care about these things. Knowing the darkness of Konoha, he had no sense of belonging to Konoha.
The first thing he did after being assigned a residence was to close the doors and windows tightly, and silently summon the system in his mind.
"System, extract Mirror Flower Water Moon and Tiangang skill for me."
After he finished speaking, Qianye only felt a golden flash before his eyes and instinctively closed them. When he opened them again, a sheathed katana with a light green hilt had appeared in front of him.
As for his mind, he had gained knowledge of how to use Mirror Flower Water Moon, and the cultivation technique "Tiangang skill" from the Bad Guys World.
Qianye first tried to use Mirror Flower Water Moon and found that as soon as he released it, it would consume his Chakra. His original body, a weak six-year-old who had only recently learned Chakra extraction methods, simply couldn't sustain the continuous release of Mirror Flower Water Moon.
He then experimented with the Tiangang skill, and an unconcealable look of joy immediately appeared on his face.
