"Sealing Technique: Reaper Death Seal!"
Uzumaki Kurami's face was solemn. Under the heavy gaze of the elders of the Uzumaki clan, he skillfully and accurately completed all the hand seals, and then put his hands together. The air shook suddenly!
A strange and ghostly aura spread like mist, and the entire council hall became cold and gloomy. Accompanied by bursts of shrill wails, a faint shadow slowly appeared behind Uzumaki Kurami.
Holding a rosary of black beads, a short sword between his teeth, a messy mane of long hair, a fierce face like a ghost, weeping and laughing, the upturned corners of his mouth revealing white fangs, like a lament for all life, or like a mockery of the decay of life, eight clusters of pale nether fire burned slowly around his figure.
The Reaper, manifested!
Kamihane faced his huge figure, the surging airflow messed up his hair, and his open-chested shirt rustled, but his eyes were calm, unshaken by the collapse of Mount Tai in front of him, and unalarmed by sudden arrivals.
In comparison, Uzumaki Kurami, as the caster, was not so relaxed. His soul was tightly bound by the Reaper's long hair, and his body had become an altar to supply his descent into the Yang world. When the sealing ceremony was completed, he would accompany the Reaper to hell forever.
But!
The man in front of him had promised that he would be fine!
Looking at Kamihane's calm gaze, his heart suddenly felt a lot more at ease, and his expression became firm.
After a discussion in the council hall, they all agreed with the plan proposed by Kamihane.
But whether everything could be completed as desired depended on overcoming the first difficulty:
Could the "Reaper Death Seal" achieve precise separation and separate the "Karma" mark from Kamihane!
With this thought, Uzumaki Kurami immediately operated his power. After casting the spell, his vision was synchronized with the Reaper's shadow behind him. With his Reaper's eyes, the world seemed to become much clearer, and even the inside of things was incomparably transparent. The vision completely entered another realm.
At this moment, he could clearly observe the life energy contained in every plant and tree. Everyone in the council hall was like a burning flame, which was the aura of chakra. Every meridian and every operation in their bodies was clearly visible, and even everyone's soul was clear!
And the person standing in front of him was simply a vigorous and blazing little sun!
His body was well-proportioned and strong, and it contained unimaginable monstrous blood energy. Every inch of muscle texture was like being cast by a thousand-hammered and refined divine iron. Raising his hands and feet had the power to pull mountains and lift cauldrons...
The soul located in the sea of consciousness was even more vast and profound, immeasurable, as if it was always merging with the heaven and earth, indescribable...
The majestic and huge amount of chakra was pure and vast, flowing like a sea...
Even Kurami, as a member of the Uzumaki clan, felt ashamed of his inferiority. He had only seen that level on the ancestor Uzumaki Ashina!
But now was obviously not the time to be amazed. The "Reaper Death Seal" technique continued to consume his own life force. Time was limited, and he immediately restrained his mind and observed Kamihane through the Reaper's vision, trying to find the "Karma" mark he described.
As soon as he searched, he really found some clues.
Whether it was the body, refined like a divine weapon, the ethereal and detached soul, or the vast chakra, there was a force that didn't belong to Kamihane.
A certain existence, like a seed, was deeply rooted in his body and spirit at the same time, and using his power as a source, it was growing bit by bit, never stopping for a moment.
This aura was extremely mysterious and elusive. If he hadn't had a goal in mind, he probably wouldn't have been able to find it at all!
Kamihane frowned slightly, and realizing Uzumaki Kurami's gradually solemn expression, he had some guesses in his heart, and then asked:
"How is it, can you see the existence of the 'Karma'?"
Sweat was breaking out on Kurami's forehead. "I can see it. It's hard to describe what it is. It's neither virtual nor real, like a dream and an illusion, existing in your body and soul at the same time. The combination of the two is the so-called 'Karma'."
"Is it very troublesome?" Kamihane raised his right hand, looking at the diamond-shaped mark on his palm, his expression slightly cold.
"It's not just troublesome. The mark on your hand is just an external manifestation. Its core is like a seed that has become a part of you! It's using your body to catalyze a chakra that belongs to you but doesn't belong to you, and..."
Uzumaki Kurami swallowed hard. "It's slowly awakening, growing slowly over time, like a piece of ice that thaws and melts, constantly turning into water and integrating into your body. If it's normal, it's fine, but once you use chakra to fight, or use its power, the melting speed will become faster..."
"Before long, the situation will be reversed. At that time, you will become a part of 'it', and finally gradually disappear, and 'it' will completely awaken, replacing you..."
Hearing Kurami's solemn description, the elders gasped in unison.
Uchiha Nian frowned and clenched his fists unconsciously.
They had thought that Kamihane's trouble would be very tricky, but with the foundation of the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques that had been passed down for thousands of years, they should win!
What they didn't expect was that it would be so difficult!
The Uzumaki sealing techniques could easily seal objects, seal chakra, and even seal souls could be done, but if they wanted to seal all three at the same time, the difficulty wouldn't be calculated with addition!
Kamihane, the person involved, had a calm expression, and raised his eyes and asked: "The Reaper's short sword can cut everything. Can't this sword cut off the 'Karma'?"
"To cut it off, there must be a target. Now, the 'Karma' and you are indistinguishable. Rashly cutting it down, there is a high probability that your origin will be injured. Your body and soul will be damaged to a considerable extent!" Kurami replied with a strained face, his face becoming more and more pale. He was about to give up.
He took a deep breath. "If the 'Karma' mark was still at the moment it just entered your body, maybe it would be possible. A piece of ice that hasn't melted at all, I would have the confidence to cut it off with one knife..."
"Is that so?" Kamihane's eyes lit up, and the Mangekyō pattern in his right pupil was like a rotating magic circle, instantly pulling his state back to the target point.
Kurami's eyes widened suddenly. At that moment, the power of the "Karma" briefly separated from Kamihane, and the essence, energy, and spirit that didn't belong to him were all swept away, as if all the water flowed back and turned back into a part of the solid ice.
Unfortunately, the opportunity was only for a moment. The next moment, the solid ice began to melt again, becoming a part of Kamihane.
Kamihane looked directly into Kurami's eyes, his gaze blazing, "Like just now, can you cut it off?"
"I can!" Kurami replied immediately, his tone tired but excited. "One more time, and I can do it!"
"However, separating it from you is only for a brief moment..." He was a little embarrassed. "In that moment, I can drive the Reaper's shadow to seal it. If it's sealed separately, it will probably be very tricky..."
"It's okay." Kamihane smiled slightly. "It's good to be able to separate it. That means our first difficulty has been overcome."
As he spoke, he looked at Uzumaki Kurami, and his deep gaze outlined his clear silhouette. "Ame-no-Tokotachi" immediately operated, the power of time and space twisted slightly, and everything returned to its original state.
Uzumaki Kurami stared at his hands in disbelief. The Reaper's shadow disappeared in an instant, the bound soul returned to his body, and the depleted life force was refilled in place, as if nothing had happened.
"This is..." He couldn't help but murmur, "Your power..."
