Ninja: I'm really an auxiliary ninja

Chapter 290: Being tricked by the White Snake Immortal.

The dream-like illusion is very real. Even with Akira Hatake's current strength, he can't tell the truth from the false for a moment.

The vision was shrouded in a hazy mist, and Tian Xinji's figure had long since disappeared.

After walking back and forth and searching without any results, Akira Hatake gave up his plan to find Tian Shinji.

However, Akira Hatake was a little confused. Logically speaking, with the many ninjutsu defense equipment he carried, he should be able to ignore most illusions.

Even Uchiha Itachi's kaleidoscope pupil technique Tsukuyomi requires the use of the "Hollow Staff" to pull Hatake Akira's consciousness into the Tsukuyomi space.

"Weird, isn't this an illusion?"

Hatake Akira muttered to himself, and after staying in place for a moment, he chose a direction at will and groped forward against the heavy fog in front of him.

In fact, not only Hatake Akira was shocked, but Tian Shinji who pulled him into the illusion was also shocked.

"This kid... is really special."

Tianxin Shenji, who has entered the sage mode, hides in the dark, secretly observing Hatake Akira's every move.

"Has such a strong ability to resist illusions, is it because of his unique talent or some other reasons that I don't know?"

While mumbling, Tian Xinji looked at Hatake Akira and something was wrong.

If it was just bloodthirsty before, now it has become naked greed.

"If I eat him... my strength should increase a lot."

He licked his lips, and the saliva in his mouth coated his lips.

She stretched out her hand to wipe it, and Tian Xin Shenji's blue forked tongue returned to her mouth again, "Then increase the intensity, I don't believe you can continue to resist!"

After saying that, Tian Xin Shenji made seals with both hands, and the powerful magic chakra in her body surged out.

"Why is the fog getting thicker and thicker..."

The further he walked, the more Hatake Akira felt there was something wrong, and some irresistible changes occurred inside his body.

Gululu...

There was a sudden feeling of hunger in my stomach. This feeling was very strong, just like a person who has been starved for four or five days suddenly.

"this……"

Hatake Akira pressed his abdomen lightly with one hand, his brows furrowed, "I obviously had a meal before coming here, why am I suddenly hungry now?"

Waves of hunger washed over Hatake Akira's nerves over and over again, as if every cell in his body was opening its mouth to ask for food, causing the string of reason in Hatake Akira's heart to almost break.

Hunger is never a good experience, and most people who have experienced it don’t want to experience it again.

People live just for that one bite of food, and everything else is something they pursue only after they are satisfied with food and clothing.

Hatake Akira was enveloped in hunger, and what he longed for most now was to fill his stomach immediately.

Gululu...

The sound in his stomach became louder, his hunger became more intense, and the negative state of hypoglycemia emerged, causing the dense fog in front of Hatake Akira to appear distorted to varying degrees.

"Haha, it's time..."

Tian Xinji licked her lips and looked at Hatake Akira as if she were looking at a plate of delicious food. "Hungry, eating, and fullness are the reincarnations that all living things cannot refuse. Then let me see, what are you doing?"

How long can we sustain this reincarnation?"

Snap!

He clasped his hands together suddenly, and the magic chakra that was originally booming surged again, and the influence of the mist on Hatake Akira also increased to a higher level.

thump.

With a soft sound, Hatake Akira's body, which had become emaciated due to physical reasons, suddenly fell to his knees.

Putting his hands on the ground, Hatake Akira felt that his body was suddenly hollowed out.

Food, he wants food!

If he didn't eat quickly, Hatake Akira felt that he was not far from death.

And because of the intensifying hunger, Hatake Akira's consciousness gradually became dull, and his originally calm and calm heart gradually became crazy.

He wants to find food at all costs!

"The power in his body is really powerful..."

Beside Tian Xinji, the White Snake Immortal suddenly spoke. She couldn't help but lick her lips when she looked at Hatake Akira, who was standing there with blank eyes but suddenly burst out with a powerful wave of energy.

Turning his head, he glanced at Tian Xinji, who was also standing aside blankly. The White Snake Immortal had a look of expectation in his eyes.

"Shenji, don't let me down. It would be a pity not to taste such delicious food."

After looking at the two people for a few times and saying a few words, the White Snake Immortal did not disturb the two of them anymore, but stood quietly, waiting for the results of the first trial to be announced.

The scene turned, and in the environment carefully created by Tianxin Shenji, Hatake Akira was already lying on the ground.

The vision in both eyes was blurred, and many negative effects on the body caused by hunger were almost at the same time, almost destroying Hatake Akira's will.

However, Tianxin Shenji could not really put Hatake Akira to death.

The environment she created is so realistic and powerful that Akira Hatake is deeply immersed in it.

The fundamental reason is that Tianxin Shenji used her own soul to temporarily bind Hatake Akira's soul, and then activated a kind of illusion magic.

The souls of the two are connected, which allows Tianxin Shenji to control her own soul, thereby making Hatake Akira's soul feel equal to her soul.

To put it bluntly, Tian Shinji is also experiencing Hatake Akira's current mental state at the same time, but because her soul power is stronger, her tolerance limit has been increased without limit.

For this reason, Hatake Akira will not die, and what is causing trouble can only be the desire deep in his soul.

Feeling that the atmosphere was almost created, Tian Xin Shenji immediately took the final step.

call……

A breeze carrying the aroma of food blew by, and when the thick fog dissipated, Hatake Akira, who was in an extremely hungry state, opened his eyes.

"Food is the aroma of food!"

Hatake Akira, who was lying on the ground, opened his eyes, and what he saw was a cave, and beside the entrance of the cave, there was a pile of steaming cooked food.

There are rice, noodles, vegetables, fruits, meat, eggs and wine. As long as you can think of delicacies, it has them all!

But next to the pile of food, there was an inconspicuous little sign with a few big, crooked characters written on it.

【Eat them at your own risk.】

"this……"

With his remaining rationality, Hatake Akira naturally noticed the words written on the wooden sign, which made him retract the hand he had just extended.

It turns out that the first level test is this!

Hatake Akira immediately understood the real project of this test, but understanding was one thing, and whether he could persevere was another.

Hunger almost destroyed Hatake Akira's sanity, but the remaining bit of sanity told Hatake Akira that once he eats all the delicacies in front of him, he will fall into a place of eternal destruction.

Should I continue to hold on, or should I become a dead ghost?

Needless to say, Hatake Akira unswervingly chose the former.

Akira Hatake would never try something as stupid as drinking poison to quench thirst.

Don't look too far, Hatake Akira endured the aroma of food filling his nose, and relied on his strong willpower to fight against the hunger in his belly.

"Hey... I actually held it back."

Tian Xin Shenji tilted her head, her golden vertical pupils shining with an indescribable light, "But so what?"

"In the past, 1% of the people who came to Longdi Cave to accept my test resisted the temptation of food in the first place."

"Haha, but it's a pity that among the 1% of people, only the little guy Orochimaru survived to the end..."

"Although the method he used made me feel a chill, but you... shouldn't have Orochimaru's body regeneration ability, right?"

Recalling Orochimaru's participation in the test, Tianxin Shenji frowned slightly, and then continued to observe Hatake Akira's performance with great interest.

"The choice is yours. If you choose the wrong one, it will taste even better when I eat you!"

Licking her lips, Tian Xinji said no more words, but continued to stare at Hatake Akira with burning eyes.

Gululu...

When his eyes returned to Hatake Akira, the loud sound of an empty stomach sounded again, which made Hatake Akira, who was lying on the ground with his eyes closed, grit his teeth.

On the one hand, there is extreme hunger in the body, and on the other hand, there is food at his fingertips, which puts Akira Hatake into a dilemma again.

To eat... or not to eat?

"If you eat a little bit, there shouldn't be any problem, right?"

Glancing at the sign erected next to the pile of food, Hatake Akira muttered, wanting to reach out and grab the delicious food in front of him.

But the moment his fingertips touched the delicious food, Hatake Akira immediately woke up and retracted his right hand as if he was electrocuted.

"No, you have to hold back!"

Reason once again defeated the biological instinct to eat. Hatake Akira closed his eyes again and forced himself to be indifferent to the food close at hand.

With food on my side, the hunger in my belly is like Nezha making waves in the sea, tossing and turning and never letting up.

Less than a minute later, Hatake Akira suddenly opened his eyes, reached out his right hand like lightning, and grabbed a roast chicken that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

His mouth suddenly opened, Hatake Akira picked up the roast chicken and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Yes, that's it!"

Tianxin Shenji, who was observing Hatake Akira's every move, drooled, "Eat it, eat it quickly! If you eat it, I can eat you. I'm hungry too, and I'm about to starve to death!"

Bang!

But when Hatake Akira opened his mouth, he suddenly shrank his neck and bit the air with his good teeth.

With a flick of his hand, he kept the roast chicken aside, and then he lay on the ground with his eyes closed again.

"How could he bear it? How could he bear it?"

Tian Xin Shenji's eyes were stunned, with a look of disbelief on her face.

Afterwards, Tian Xin Shenji's face turned grim, "No, I have to increase my efforts, otherwise I won't be able to bear it any longer!"

Because the souls of the two are connected, everything Hatake Akira feels now is also felt by Tianxin Shenji. If her soul were not so powerful, she would probably not be able to hold on long ago.

But Hatake Akira's actions just now clearly aroused Tianxin Shenji's deep desire for food, making her almost break her guard and unable to hold on.

Holding back her hunger, Tian Xinji once again increased the intensity of her magic chakra release, and the hunger in their souls reached its peak in an instant.

"Hungry, I'm so damn hungry!"

Hatake Akira's face was distorted, and his eyes were staring directly at the food in front of him, "Is this kind of test... really something that people can think of?!"

His mind collapsed again, and Hatake Akira reached out again to grab the pile of food in front of him.

Just when Hatake Akira was about to take the food in his hands again, his confused thoughts suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

The seal of time!

He can use the Time-Sealing Seal to fill up the flow of time around him, so that for the same period of hunger, the flow of time in the outside world will become faster.

Under the circumstances of one ebb and flow, this represents a disguised acceleration of the flow of time.

Hatake Akira doesn't believe it anymore, this kind of test is endless!

As long as he can survive it, then it will be others who cannot!

He once again used strong willpower to control his hands, and while swallowing, Hatake Akira retracted his hands.

After forming a seal with both hands, a force of time rose up from Hatake Akira's body, and then formed a spatial barrier invisible to the naked eye, wrapping Hatake Akira within it.

Outside, the White Snake Immortal who was closing his eyes to rest his mind suddenly opened his eyes, and light flashed in his golden vertical pupils.

"The power of time..."

"This little guy, Akira Hatake, really gave me a lot of surprises!"

"Now, Shen Ji's side... is going to feel uncomfortable..."

Just as the White Snake Immortal expected, Tian Xin Shenji really couldn't bear it anymore.

When Hatake Akira reached for the food for the second time, Tianxin Shenji thought that things were stable, but unexpectedly, Hatake Akira came through again.

However, when Akira Hatake survived the second time, Shinji Tianxin could still bear it, feeling that once or twice, there would be a third time.

But what she didn't know was that for every second that passed by Hatake Akira in her eyes under the influence of the time-sealing seal, three or even five seconds might pass by in the outside world.

Gradually, Tian Xinji couldn't bear it any longer. She was almost going crazy now, wishing she could rush to swallow Hatake Akira's soul right now.

But Tian Xin Shenji cannot do this.

She is the examiner of the first test, so she also has rules that she must abide by. If she breaks the rules, it will not do her any good.

"Shenji, you lose."

The ethereal voice of the White Snake Immortal reached Tian Xin Shenji's ears.

Tian Xin Shenji was stunned for a moment, and then glared at Hatake Akira with a ferocious face, "White Snake Immortal, please wait a little longer, that boy Hatake Akira will soon be unable to hold on!"

"I think it's you who can't stand it."

The voice of the White Snake Immortal was still calm, and one could not hear the sadness or joy, "Hatake Akira, that little guy can use the power of time, you have already lost."

"Time...the power of time?!"

"How is this possible!"

Tian Xin Shenji opened her golden snake eyes wide, "I don't believe it! How can a kid who has lived for less than 20 years possess the supreme power of time?"

"Okay Shen Ji, accept the reality."

Having said that, Immortal White Snake remained silent and his mind returned to reality.

After waiting quietly for less than half a minute, Akira Hatake and Shinji Tianxin, whose eyes were dull, regained their spirits.

"call……"

Hatake Akira breathed a long sigh of relief. He was relieved to be free from hunger and the temptation of delicious food. He couldn't help but reach out and touch his belly.

However, the performance of Tian Xinji, the examiner of this test, when she regained consciousness, could not keep up with Hatake Akira.

Her knees weakened, and her delicate body suddenly fell to the ground.

"Sister Shenji, I really didn't expect you to lose..."

The legal lolita city's Kijima Hime covered her mouth and chuckled, with a teasing look on her face, "It seems that the handsome brother has no chance with you. You will have to look at me next."

"Ichikishima-hime...you bitch!"

Tian Xin Shenji had a face full of resentment and resentment, but she could only stare. If she loses, she loses. Making any excuses will not have the slightest impact.

"Brother Hatake Akira, although it's very presumptuous, I'm going to start."

"Nima... don't let anyone..."

Before I could finish saying the word "rest", Ichikishima-hime pulled Hatake Akira into a brand new fantasy world.

And the two of them were just like before, their eyes were dull and their bodies were sluggish.

The scene changes and Hatake Akira is led by Ichikishimahime to a cave.

"Brother, this is it."

Ichikishimahime's voice was playful and clear, "This is where you will conduct the next trial."

"here?"

Hatake Akira looked around and found that there was nothing special in the cave. There were only rocks around.

But it's not without some weird spots.

In the cracks of the rocks in the cave, there is a kind of bright green crystal whose specific purpose is unknown.

Hatake Akira felt that these bright green crystals were very strange, and the devouring power covering them made him feel frightened.

"Yes, it's right here."

Ichikishimahime smiled sweetly, nodded and continued to explain Hatake Akira's doubts, "This trial is also very difficult."

He bent down and broke off a piece of bright green crystal from the crack of the stone at his feet, throwing it in his hand, "Brother, these crystals can absorb people's chakra, and they absorb a lot!"

Boom.

As soon as Ichikishimahime finished speaking, a loud noise came from the entrance of the cave, and a spherical boulder with holes all over it completely sealed the entrance of the cave.

"Brother, I don't want to spend so much effort like Tian Xinji, I prefer to be more direct."

Ichikishima Hime glanced at Hatake Akira with a shy face, "Although my brother has lost some weight, the power contained in his body is shocking."

"So, I have slightly increased the difficulty. On the boulder that seals the cave, I have increased the number of holes that can put these crystals in."

"Brother, if you don't want to be eaten by me, then work harder and fill these holes."

Ichikishimahime suddenly grinned and showed her fangs, and her pink forked tongue touched Hatake Akira's face, "Brother, but I hope you can't fill these holes...in that case I can eat you!"

"Keke, hahaha..."

Like a child who had made a prank, Ichikishimahime smiled happily, and her body flying in mid-air quickly flew towards the entrance of the cave.

"Brother, you have to remember, you only have half an hour..."

After the last words fell, Ichikishimahime disappeared at the entrance of the cave, leaving Akira Hatake alone in the cave.

"The first level tests willpower, but the second level will test physical fitness?"

Hatake Akira came to a conclusion in his mind. He bent down and followed the example of Ichikijima Hime just now, and broke off a piece of the bright green crystal that grew in the cracks of the stone.

Buzz…

There was a soft sound followed by vibrations, and the emerald green crystal in Akira Hatake's hand suddenly lit up, illuminating the cave with a verdant green, and at the same time, it was constantly consuming Akira Hatake's own chakra.

"hehe……"

Hatake Akira chuckled, "Ichikishima-hime, you may not know how easy this level is for me!"

Having said that, Hatake Akira used the light of the bright green crystals to search for crystals everywhere in the cave, hoping to collect enough materials at once to fill the hole in the boulder.

Soon, Hatake Ming carried a pile of bright green crystals in his arms and slowly approached the boulder blocking the entrance of the cave.

"He...he...his chakra...how can he have so much chakra!"

Ichikishima Hime, who was observing Akira Hatake from the side, stammered. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never have believed it. Akira Hatake's current chakra amount was already comparable to that of a tailed beast, and even exceeded it by a lot.

"hateful!"

Staring at Akira Hatake fiercely, Ichikishima Hime already knew the result of this test, and Loli couldn't help but have two small bumps on her face.

Things were just as Ichikishimahime expected. With Akira Hatake's own chakra reserves and the bonuses of many equipment, he easily completed this second test.

"Ichikishima-hime, you can't do it either."

Tian Xin Shenji, who was originally furious, had a bright smile on her face, "That little guy actually passed the second test so quickly. Are you letting your guard down?"

"Huh! I'm too lazy to pay attention to you."

Ichikishima-hime turned her head, not wanting to see Tianjinjin-hime's sullen expression, and instead reached out and put her arm around Tatsujin-hime.

"Sister Jinji, you must teach Akira Hatake a lesson for me."

"I understand, leave the rest to me."

Tuanjinji nodded, and then walked towards Hatake Akira. The huge natural energy in her body formed a layer of fluctuations visible to the naked eye on her body surface.

Without any words, Tuanjinji waved her hand casually, and Hatake Akira's body instantly became stiff.

He wanted to resist, but the powerful senjutsu chakra perfectly restrained Hatake Akira's current power system.

Although it is said that Akira Hatake can break free from his imprisonment as long as he pays a certain price, it is really not necessary.

He came to Longdi Cave to learn the magic of immortality, not to stir up trouble. Hatake clearly understood the priorities of the matter.

But just when Tuanjinji was about to take the next step, the White Snake Immortal suddenly stopped her.

"Jinji, there is no need to continue the third test you are responsible for."

"Yes, White Snake Immortal."

Although Tuanjinji was confused, she still obeyed the order of the White Snake Immortal without a single question.

To Tonjinji, White Snake Immortal's orders are everything.

"Why?"

However, just because Tuanjinji didn't ask, it doesn't mean that Hatake Ming wouldn't ask, "White Snake Immortal, you're not trying to cheat, are you?"

"Cheating?"

White Snake Immortal glared at Hatake Akira fiercely, "I don't even bother to do such a thing."

"It's just that with your current power level, you no longer need to accept this test. The only thing you have to worry about now is whether you can withstand the natural energy I inject into you."

"injection?"

Hatake Akira was stunned for a moment, but before Hatake Akira could make any move, the White Snake Sage's neck stretched out, and the face of an old woman changed into that of a white phosphorous snake.

Aiming at the left side of Hatake Akira's neck, the White Snake Sage opened his bloody mouth and bit it.

Being attacked, Hatake Akira instinctively wanted to resist, but as soon as he raised his hand, he smiled bitterly and laughed.

Snakes are indeed cold-blooded animals. Their approach and style of doing things are very cold-blooded and they don't care about the life or death of others.

What White Snake Sage said was literal. The moment he bit Hatake Akira's neck, a majestic natural energy turned into seeds and drilled into Hatake Akira's body.

After the injection was completed, the White Snake Immortal retracted his stretched neck and his body returned to the state of an old woman.

"If you can't turn into a stone statue tomorrow, then I will naturally teach you the magic of Longdi Cave."

"Tianxin Princess, Ichikijima Princess, and Tsunjin Princess, come back to the cave with me."

"Yes, Immortal White Snake!"

White Snake Immortal no longer cared about Hatake Akira, whose body was already partially petrified, and led his three trusted followers to leave.

"Are you too irresponsible?!"

Hatake Akira shouted and wanted to catch up, but his petrified legs still restricted his movement.

Moreover, Hatake Akira discovered that as his activities became more intense, the natural energy injected into his body by the White Snake Sennin became more and more violent, thereby accelerating the rate at which his body was petrified.

Helpless, Hatake Akira remained silent, and could only sink into the state of inner vision, calmly resist, and integrate the sudden influx of natural energy in the body.

But even so, Hatake Akira couldn't stop his body from continuing to become petrified.

Soon, the lower half of Hatake Akira's body was completely petrified, and the petrified body parts were still spreading upwards.

If things continue at this rate, Hatake Ming has reason to believe that he will turn into a lifelike human-shaped stone statue in less than ten minutes.

"No, we have to find a way!"

Hatake Akira gritted his teeth, "If we continue at this rate, let alone survive until tomorrow, I won't even be able to survive today!"
