In the abandoned training ground in the Konoha Forest, four people stared at the young man in the field in a daze, and the voice like the whisper of a devil kept lingering in their ears.

“Defy fate and change destiny…”

Hiroshi subconsciously murmured, and this word had a fatal attraction to him like the abyss, like a light to a moth, but the slight sense of disobedience made him react immediately.

“What’s the situation? Who is this guy? Why is he here? Should I call someone?”

Just as he was hesitating, Orochimaru asked first, “Excuse me, what is defy fate and change destiny?”

“Simple.” Shen Yu said calmly, “If you don’t have strong qualifications, then find a way to rob others and turn other people’s power into your own. This… is the correct way to become stronger, and it is also the essence of ‘chakra’!”

“This… this is too messy…” Kirito was sweating all over when he heard it. This was very different from the knowledge taught in school. Whether it was the teacher or the senior, they all said that as long as you practice, you can become stronger, but what the person in front of you said was simply ridiculous!

“You mean, taking the power of others and using it for your own benefit is the way to become stronger?” Orochimaru frowned and asked.

“Do you remember the black-faced man back then?” Shen Yu asked back: “I cut him into pieces again and again, why do you think he didn’t die?”

Orochimaru was shocked. He saw the soul-shaking and subverting scene with his own eyes, and it is still vivid in his mind.

Shen Yu asked himself and answered: “Because he has many hearts, each heart gives him fresh vitality. These hearts are of course taken away. As long as he keeps changing his heart, he will never die.”

The pupils of the four little ones trembled together. This way of survival is simply horrifying, and the means are also extremely cruel.

“Of course, he is just a reference. There are more than one way to become stronger. For example…”

Shen Yu raised a finger, “Liberate the soul from the weak body and transplant it into a stronger body. I prefer to call it ‘taking over’. When the flesh and blood are aging, replace it with a younger one. Repeat this cycle and become an existence that cannot be corroded by time. In the eternal years, constantly explore the mystery of immortality;”

“For example, starting from the genetic level, turning the body into a furnace, directly merging and seizing better genes, hundreds of rivers return to the sea, until transcendence, and these excellent genes, I would like to call them ‘roots’…”

He suddenly turned his head and “looked” at Nen and Kirito, “Some blood limit is a good choice.”

Kirito sat on the ground, not because of Shen Yu, but because he found that Orochimaru and Hiruko were looking at him.

Some deep darkness swallowed their bodies, leaving only two pairs of eyes as bright as golden lamps. At a certain moment, their eyes were strange and cold, without any emotion, as if they wanted to eat him alive!

“You’re lying… You’re lying…”

He broke out in a cold sweat, his eyes full of disbelief.

“If there is such a shortcut to becoming stronger, then why do you still work hard to practice? No, that’s not right! This method is to take away other people’s creation and sacrifice others to complete yourself. Even if you become stronger, your hands will inevitably be stained with blood along the way. It’s too cruel…”

“Shortcut? Xiao Tongren, you are still too naive.” Shen Yu spread his hands, “What I’m talking about now is just conjecture and theory, only providing possibilities. How to achieve it specifically is an extremely long and lonely road, and those who dare to take this road not only need courage, but also hard work and talent.”

“But…” Shen Yu smiled mysteriously, and Orochimaru was stunned. From his perspective, this smile was a little cunning, and there was a familiar feeling, as if someone often showed this expression.

“There is a saying that goes, only by standing on the shoulders of giants can you see farther.” Shen Yu’s voice was full of temptation, “Someone has already stepped over the threshold of this road, and his research results are now in Konoha Village…”

“What?”

Bei Liuhu’s heart skipped a beat, and at this moment, he felt that his breathing was about to stop.

“Where is it?” He completely forgot about his fear, and quickly got up from the ground, looking up at the god-like man, “Please tell me, where is this result?”

For some reason, he was very interested in the second conjecture the man said.

Root… Root…

Hundreds of rivers return to the sea, and are cast into eternity…

This crazy idea is like a vigorous seed, deeply rooted in his mind, sprouting and growing, almost breaking through his reason.

“Bei Liuhu, have you ever raised a bird?”

“Ah?” The sudden turn made Bei Liuhu swallow his saliva. He looked up at the tall figure blending into the sun, his heart pounding, and evenIgnored the fact that the other party could call out his name directly.

“No, no.” He opened his mouth, his throat dry.

Shen Yu put his hands behind his back and said in a light tone, “If you keep stuffing all the food into the mouth of the chick, even if it sheds its soft beak and has full wings, it will still be a useless bird that only knows how to open its mouth to ask for food.”

Bei Liuhu swallowed his saliva, his face was ugly, and he heard the implication of Shen Yu.

Shen Yu said leisurely: “I can only remind you that these things are related to a mysterious laboratory. The things inside it, let’s call it ‘treasure’. Find it and bring it to me. It’s my test for you.”

Orochimaru took a deep breath. As smart as he was, he had realized something.

“I just want to ask, what is the price of getting this ‘treasure’?”

“Your relatives and friends regard you as an enemy, Konoha regards you as a traitor, the top leaders have issued an endless hunt for you, and you have become the target of criticism in the village, and even children hate you and treat you like a worn-out shoe…” Shen Yu thought seriously, “That’s probably it.”

This news shocked several people, and Orochimaru even took a half step back.

Only by betraying the village can you become stronger?

Beiliuhu didn’t say anything, but just lowered his head silently. No one saw that there was a strange firmness in his eyes.

Shen Yu said softly: “If you really have the courage to take this step and successfully get the ‘treasure’, then I will naturally appear, sincerely accept you, provide you with a place to live, and cultivate you as a confidant.”

Orochimaru looked calm, “Perhaps, this is your purpose.”

“Of course I have my needs.” Shen Yu said as a matter of course: “Remember the talent I just mentioned? It has nothing to do with strength. You all have this potential. In my eyes, you are all good embryos. Maybe you can help a lot in the future.”

“Is there something you can’t accomplish?” Orochimaru was a little surprised.

“A single tree cannot make a forest.” Shen Yu’s tone was unfathomable, “Leaving professional matters to professionals can save a lot of time.”

Orochimaru was thoughtful, and suddenly realized that a pair of eyes were staring at him. He slightly turned his head and caught Beiliu’s evasive eyes.

“Test…?”
