Chapter 53 - Ape Demon Transformation
"Li Yao, you're quite well hidden. I didn't expect you to be a member of the Uzumaki clan."
The third generation wanted to bomb Li Yao to see if he would reveal more details about his identity.
But when Li Yao heard the words of the Third Generation, he was obviously stunned. Then he saw that the Third Generation's eyes were always on the black iron chain behind him, and then he realized that the Third Generation thought that the black iron chain was also a kind of sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan's Vajra Seal, so he thought he was a member of the Uzumaki clan.
Li Yao smiled but didn't mean to explain.
He raised his head to take a look at the completely enclosed Four Purple Flame Array barrier and used his chakra perception ability to sense it.
Sure enough, the chakra perception ability was blocked and did not extend out.
A hint of surprise flashed in Li Yao's eyes.
"bump!"
Li Yao frowned. The underground was also closed and the black iron chains could not pass through.
The purple flame wall seemed to be only a thin layer, but it was extremely strong and could even burn Li Yao's black iron chain chakra.
Although the burning does not consume much chakra.
But Li Yao didn't want to consume too much chakra.
Li Yao tried to condense the same barrier chakra again to see if he could break through the barrier.
When the black iron chain touched the purple flame wall, he had already sensed the changes in the nature and form of the chakra through his chakra perception ability.
He can instantly condense the same purple flame chakra.
"Um... it's useless!"
Li Yao was a little surprised. The barrier technique seemed to be different from the sealing technique. Copying the same chakra would not allow him to pass through the barrier.
The changes in chakra properties in barrier techniques are slightly different from those in sealing techniques.
The changes in the chakra properties of the barrier technique are connected to the mind of the caster and have a strong subjective initiative.
Even if Li Yao copied the exact same barrier chakra, he would not be able to pass through the barrier cast by the caster.
It feels like the barrier technique also has human recognition ability.
In short, Li Yao has only two choices to escape.
One is to break the barrier with absolute force.
The second is to accelerate the consumption of the barrier's caster's chakra by constantly attacking the barrier. Once the caster's chakra is exhausted, there will naturally be no way to maintain the barrier.
In this way, Li Yao can escape.
But just now Li Yao tried it with the black iron chain underground. With his current chakra amount, he could not withstand the Four Purple Flame Array barrier technique jointly performed by four Anbu senior ninjas due to the burning consumption of the barrier.
What's more, there are the Third Generation and four Anbu Jonins in the barrier.
They would not give Li Yao time to continuously attack the barrier.
In other words, Li Yao couldn't escape.
"Haha, it's already this late, do you still think you can escape?"
The third generation sensed Li Yao's movements underground and immediately mocked him.
The Four Purple Flame Formation was a powerful barrier technique developed to restrain the Nine-Tailed Fox. How could a mere Li Yao possibly break it?
Li Yao's fate was already determined, but when the moment came to kill Li Yao, the third generation couldn't help but feel greedy.
"You go out first." The third generation suddenly said to the four Anbu ninjas in the barrier.
"Yes, Lord Hokage." The four Anbu ninjas obeyed the order and left quickly without any hesitation.
The four Anbu ninjas who maintained the barrier quickly opened a gap in the barrier, allowing the four Anbu ninjas inside to come out.
Li Yao did not stop him, nor did he take the opportunity to leave.
This is actually a bit unusual on my part, but the third generation didn't notice.
Soon, only Li Yao and the Third Generation were left in the barrier.
The barrier was covered with dense trees, so people outside the barrier could not see the third generation and Li Yao inside, and the barrier was also soundproof.
The outside world had no idea what the third generation and Li Yao were talking about inside.
However, the four Anbu ninjas who cast the barrier can use the barrier to sense the chakra fluctuations within it.
So there is no need to worry about any accidents happening in the third generation.
They also don't think there will be any accidents in the third generation.
After all, the third generation is the "strongest Hokage in history"!
"Li Yao, as long as you tell me the improved spiritual transformation technique, I can let your soul leave."
There was no one else inside the barrier. The third generation finally couldn't resist the temptation of eternal life and asked Li Yao about the secret of the spiritualization technique.
Hearing the words "Spiritual Transformation Technique" again, Li Yao's body trembled subconsciously, and the ink-black hatred in the depths of his eyes was almost out of control.
Everything he experienced began with this spiritualization technique.
But Li Yao still couldn't recall any information about the spiritual transformation technique, and he didn't know any spiritual transformation technique at all.
Seeing that the third generation was still obsessed with the art of spiritualization, Li Yao became curious.
What kind of ninjutsu is the Spiritualization Technique?
It made three generations obsessed with him for so long.
"Do you still have hope?"
The third generation's brows suddenly furrowed, and his gaze towards Li Yao became uncertain.
"No, something is wrong."
The third generation did not see any panic on Li Yao's face.
Even though he was bound by the barrier, Li Yao remained calm and composed from beginning to end.
This... is a little abnormal.
The third generation thought quickly about what suspicious points he had not noticed since he saw Li Yao above the Root Base.
"hehe!"
Li Yao smiled slightly, and without giving the Third Generation any room to think, he took action directly.
Jingle, Jingle!
Three black iron chains instantly broke out from the ground and appeared in front of the Third Hokage. As long as the black iron chains pierced into the body, even if he was the Third Hokage, it would be useless.
The chakra is sealed and cannot be mobilized, so you have to kneel.
However, it is obvious that the strength of the Third Hokage is not comparable to that of an ordinary Jonin.
The third generation took a light step back and swung the Vajra Ruyi Stick in his hand, knocking away the black iron chain that was coming towards him.
"No, no."
"Something must have gone wrong."
The third generation easily dealt with Li Yao's black iron chain attack while recalling the entire process of chasing Li Yao.
Several attacks were knocked away by the Vajra Ruyi Stick in the hands of the Third Generation. Li Yao frowned slightly and carefully sensed the stick that the Ape Demon had transformed into.
"This guy's transformation technique is very special."
"It's like it's really turned into a stick, completely unaffected by the black iron chains' chakra-binding effects, and it maintains its deformed stick form."
Generally speaking, when the body is affected by Li Yao's black iron chains and the chakra is restrained, the ninjutsu used will automatically dissipate.
Just like the ninja from the Nara family at the root, when he used the shadow imitation technique, his chakra was sealed by his black iron chain, and he could no longer maintain the shadow imitation technique and it dissipated immediately.
Transformation technique is also a type of ninjutsu similar to shadow imitation technique, which requires the caster to continuously output chakra to maintain the transformed state.
Logically, at the moment when Li Yao controlled the black iron chain to become virtual and penetrate the Vajra Ruyi Stick, the Vajra Ruyi Stick transformed by the Ape Demon would return to its original form because the chakra was imprisoned and sealed, interrupting the continuous chakra output.
However, the Monkey Demon was not affected by the black iron chains that restricted his chakra and was able to maintain the effect of his transformation.
It was like Enma had actually transformed into a stick, and he could maintain the transformation without using chakra.
This is no longer a transformation, it's more like a transfiguration.
"This is somewhat similar to the perfect transformation technique that Kimura Yo's father has always wanted to develop!"
Li Yao's eyes suddenly lit up. While controlling the black iron chain to attack the third generation, he carefully sensed the changes in the chakra properties of the ape demon as it transformed into the Vajra Ruyi Stick.
He wants to write it down and study it slowly later.
The only difference between Yuan Mo's transformation technique at this moment and the perfect transformation technique is that there is still chakra in his body, so he cannot hide.
Otherwise, what the ape demon transformed into would really be a stick with an indestructible hardness like diamond.
"Perhaps the breakthrough to the perfect transformation technique lies in the ape demon."
Li Yao looked at the Ape Demon transformed stick in the hands of the Third Generation, his eyes burning as he stared at the Ape Demon stick with an infatuated look on his face.
Jingle, Jingle!
Inside the barrier, both the Third Generation and Li Yao seemed to be trying to delay time.
However, Li Yao can afford to delay, but the third generation cannot.
"Forget it, just kill him."
After thinking for a while, he still couldn't figure out what went wrong. The third generation also realized that it was impossible to get the secret of the spiritualization technique from Li Yao.
In order to avoid making the same mistake as Danzo in not killing Li Yao earlier, the third generation stopped holding back and used all his strength.
