Naruto: The Legend of Mortal Bone Ninja

I always feel like I'm just like a kid who hasn't touched a word of his vacation homework as school is about to start...

Obviously it should be something that must be done, but I can't muster the motivation at all and don't want to look at this mountain of scrolls.

It's really strange. I shouldn't have the conditions for a self-destructive personality. I just have a strong desire to survive.

Really lazy.

Li Zhen sat behind the desk, his eyes dull and empty. After all, he had been rummaging through the scrolls for four days. Now whenever he saw the text, he felt that the ghostly glyph-like fonts came to life like earthworms, unable to form any useful information...

He also had to refine chakra from time to time to resist the invasion of natural energy. In this secret realm, he did not dare to convert magical chakra, let alone practice the magical techniques in the scrolls.

This Longdi Cave was not a place that a mortal like Li Zhen could set foot in.

Li Zhen slowly reached out and fumbled for a pill from his ninja bag, and wanted to put it directly into his mouth, but his arms were too heavy to lift, and he couldn't even focus on the soldier's grain pill.

It has reached its limit. Humans without powerful chakra cannot stay in this secret realm for long.Li Zhen looked at the Bingliang Pill in his hand with great distress. He did not want to use this life-saving tool at this time.

Longdi Cave may be the most important turning point in the life of the chosen one, but it is of no benefit to Li Zhen who came in in a daze.

He does not have the gift of photographic memory, and he cannot remember a few words from a scroll he hastily read.

He cannot practice Immortal Chakra here, but for those who are truly chosen, practicing Immortal Chakra here will have several times the effect of the outside world, and their practice will make thousands of miles.

It is even impossible to leave this temple and visit other places in Longdi Cave, because except for this temple, which is blessed by the White Snake Immortal, the dark and damp secret realm is full of monsters of the genus of snakes and insects.

But Li Zhen knew what he wanted.

If you can't find a way to prolong your life from this rich collection of books, everything else is nonsense.

Even if they return in vain... I have already been mentally prepared for such a bad ending.

He is not the kind of protagonist, the son of destiny, who can turn danger into danger no matter what kind of situation he is in, and even benefit from it.

It is normal in the world to try in every possible way and end up with nothing.

No matter how bad it is, how bad can it be? I can't defeat the three monster sisters, and I can't find a way to extend my life. I think optimistically, since I can have the second week to open up wasteland, I can give myself a knife to start the three weeks in advance. Life in another world is not so hopeless, right?

Li Zhen doesn't like Longdi Cave.

He has never liked the gloomy environment. Even in the game, there are beautiful mountains and rivers in the immortal way painting style and the divine power of the devil way painting style in the game. There are many players who like the crazy style of the latter, but Li Zhen only once None of them have chosen the dark style camp.

Although the three major holy places are actually the same bird, even in a place with a better painting style like Mt. Myoboku, you may have to follow the locals and have a bowl of steaming worm ramen.

The Ryūchi Cave, which is not hospitable, will not provide food at all. If you want to survive here for a long time, you must enter the dark and deep cave to hunt those strange beasts with powerful magical chakra in their bodies and drink their blood. Devour its flesh.

Li Zhen, who was distracted for a while, let the Bing Liang Wan fall from his palm, but when it was about to hit the ground, it hung still in the air. Although the entire room was shrouded in the magic circle, the only one with the consciousness of self-management was the scroll.

The Bing Liang Pill suddenly had an idea of ​​its own and flew happily to a plain hand.

A loli in a white gown appeared in front of Li Zhen.

With long dark blue hair and eyes, light red eyeshadow and lips, she looked at Li Zhen quietly, not knowing when he appeared there, and not sure how long she had been observing him.

"Come and play, children of men."

She raised a faint smile, but contrary to her intellectual face, her voice was filled with the sweet joy of a yandere.

here we go again……

The white shawl floated with Ichikishima Hime. She floated behind Li Zhen lightly and delicately, stretched out her arms to hug Li Zhen lightly, and a soldier's grain pill floated quietly in front of Li Zhen. .Although he was close at hand, Li Zhen knew that he would not be able to take back the Bingliang Pill from this monster immortal no matter what.

Ichikishimahime said softly in Li Zhen's ear.

"Play with me and I'll give it back to you."

How many times have you spoken like an innocent child?

The other two immortals were completely uninterested in Li Zhen, and the White Snake Immortal could not meet him at all. Only this Ichikishima Hime often came to interfere with Li Zhen's reading of the scrolls, and would be completely useless if he did not accompany her to play some childish puzzle games. Li Zhen was not allowed to read quietly.

Just like an innocent child on the outside... what he does is extremely cruel.

She didn't care about Li Zhen's life or death at all, she was just teasing an insignificant little insect in her long and boring immortal life.

Ichikishima-hime likes to eat humans who have run out of chakra.

In principle, after humans pass the test, the snake immortals will no longer attack them.But Li Zhen did not pass the test, and the attitude of the White Snake Immortal was unclear. In the past, it was not uncommon for human beings to be eroded by natural energy and then eaten when they were practicing self-cultivation.

"I see."

The response without any emotion made Ichikijima let go of Li Zhen with a smile. She waved her sleeves lightly, and a stone platform appeared in front of her. It was criss-crossed to form a chessboard, and the black and white pieces made of smooth jade fell into the stone. box.

Li Zhen is used to such changing magical methods. Maybe it is not a magical thing, but just the application of time and space ninjutsu.

Li Zhen just dictated this kind of game yesterday and wrote and drew on paper. Today, Ichikijima Hime directly made a physical prop that can be called a work of art.

Ichikishima Ji smiled and picked up a chess piece, banging it on the center of the chessboard, and Li Zhen followed suit.

In a short time, black and white are entangled, and the situation is fierce. Li Zhen tries to be a big dragon, but Ichikijima is able to chase and block him with ease. The two sides move like antelopes hanging their horns, and the killing is majestic and dangerous!

As it rained, Li Zhen braced himself up and devoted himself wholeheartedly. No one liked the feeling of failure, even a loser like Li Zhen who failed nine times out of ten would feel unwilling to do so.

The two of them moved like flying, and in the sound of snapping... five stars in a row!

Li Zhen lost again...

Why again, because after dictating the rules of the backgammon game, Ichikishimahime, an antique-level novice who has lived in Ryūchi Cave for thousands of years, has never lost a game.

No one would think that someone with Li Zhen’s intelligence level could understand Go, right?

The reason why he proposed to play backgammon was because he wanted Ichikishima Hime to recommend games. They were all childish and naive puzzle games that were time-consuming and labor-intensive. The most important thing was... Li Zhen couldn't solve them.

Will waste a lot of time looking for scrolls

He is the kind of ironhead who is stubborn and accepts death. He has no flexible mind at all. For example, in Incombustibles, he fills in the appropriate crystals to open the stone door blocking the exit. In Li Zhen's case, he will try all the crystals one by one. , maybe after trying them all, you find that there is no suitable crystal, and you may be forced to find a workaround when you are on the verge of despair.

Backgammon is actually very simple. There are only a few tricks. It is to compete with who can line up five pieces first, vertically, horizontally or diagonally. It doesn't matter. Whoever connects five pieces first is the winner.But the fun is countless times better than normal chess.People can't help but get involved in it and can't extricate themselves.

In terms of Ichikishima-hime’s sage wisdom, it’s actually easy to get bored with the game because it’s too simple.

But she still enjoyed the duel with Li Zhen.

Ichikishima Hime's sisters would never play games with her. After all, she was not a real young girl. Self-cultivation and giving trials to intruders would become boring after a thousand years.

Only Ichikishima Hime has a soft spot for games, so it would be nice to have a little bug playing with her now.

There is no challenge to winning all battles and she doesn't care about such trivial matters.

After six consecutive victories, Ichikijima Hime smiled and looked at Li Zhen, who had a gloomy face. The chessboard in front of her disappeared with a wave of her hand. She raised her white hands, and the Hyōryōwan appeared in her hand.

"Then, as agreed, I will return it to you."

I saw Ichikijima-hime taking the soldier's grain pill into her mouth.

"Hey……"

"It's a reward."

Mouth to mouth, there is immortal blood flowing from the kiss.

Li Zhen's intentions were noticed by the three immortals when they met. The immortals' perception can not only detect malicious intentions, but combined with intelligence information, they can even guess what the other party is thinking.

For example, killing an immortal is a treasonous and unethical act.

There is no enmity between each other, why does this human cub who is not murderous by nature want to kill them? The greed, the increasingly weakening blood, the desire for survival, combined with the half-dead expression when he last saw him His appearance, the changes caused by his taking away the blood, and what his own blood means to humans... It's easy to guess, right?

Ichikishimahime fulfilled his wish, and as a reward for playing with him, she gave him her own blood regardless of the outcome of the game.

It's just... this is definitely not a good intention.

Li Zhen stretched out his hand and pushed away the young immortal. The latter was floating in the air, his smile full of evil.

Li Zhen, who was barely able to hold on under the erosion of huge natural energy, now added the blood of the immortal containing powerful magical chakra, and it was not surprising what the result would be.

It's just a repeat of the rampage that happened two years ago after being eroded and turned into a fairy.

But Li Zhen is no longer the weak human cub he was two years ago.

"Well……!"

The skin has turned gray due to erosion. At this stage, the broken vase of the body is barely able to accommodate the surging water from the body. The blood of the immortal is also effective in giving him regeneration and vitality.

Although natural energy and magical chakra are different, there are two things that affect Li Zhen. One is that this energy will have a tug-of-war with the chakra in Li Zhen's body, constantly canceling out Li Zhen's own chakra. When the balance is broken, the body loses control and becomes something inhuman.If you don't want to become like that, you have to use your own chakra to resist this external erosion.

One is that the natural energy had a severe impact on Li Zhen's spirit, and he fell into the crazy killing desire of the Snake Immortal faction.

Li Zhen knocked over the desk in front of him and lingered on the ground like a twitching earthworm. White scales gradually emerged on his gray skin. This was a sign that he failed to balance his own chakra and natural energy and began to transform into a snake.

"Hehehehe..."

Ichikishimahime sat cross-legged in the air, supporting her small chin with both hands, enjoying the struggle of this pitiful mortal.Watching the son of a man's own chakra disappear is the next most enjoyable thing for this snake sage after playing games. She likes to eat a little bit of prey that has exhausted its chakra and tries to struggle but doesn't have a drop of chakra left.

"Well, that doesn't make sense."

Ichikishima-hime frowned and looked at the ugly half-human, half-snake monster below. Although it was now unable to move, neither its will nor its chakra could be swallowed.

Leaving aside the aspect of will, there are indeed humans with abnormal brains who can resist erosion, but what's up with his chakra that is always exhausted and always squeezes out some?

Li Zhen has drank the blood of immortals four times, and each time he survived when Ichikijima Hime felt that he was about to die, like a person who fell off a cliff and used his only remaining hand to hold on to the cliff. , showing an ugly desire to survive.

She sighed, and her figure gradually dimmed and disappeared in the air.

"..."

Lying on the ground exhausted, Li Zhen didn't want to see his current appearance. He was a timid person. Although he was not exposed even once because he forced himself on or pretended to play the role of a tough guy who was ruthless and didn't talk much. Things, ugly things, cruel things, don’t look at these if you can.

Li Zhen didn't want to recall how difficult it was for him to survive until today. There was no point in thinking about this kind of thing too much.

Judging from the results, Li Zhen successfully obtained the blood of the immortal. He could feel that his weakening body was full of vitality, which greatly extended the boot time of his old mobile phone.

It's just...it's really painful, so painful that I want to kill myself.

He only got to where he is today because his emotions were suppressed.

Li Zhen's face was pressed to the ground, his golden vertical pupils opened, and his body twitched from time to time. Either one side was transformed into a snake, or the other side returned to its original state.

His unfocused eyes gradually returned to normal, and he saw a scroll clinging to a hidden corner at the bottom of the bookshelf, unwilling to be discovered.

Li Zhen stretched out his claws covered with white scales without thinking, and paused slightly after holding the scroll.

This scroll...has been sealed.
