Journey To The True Martial World - Chapter 34

“So, I ȧssume you have the key to open the lock now” Seiichi asked

“Of course, my Lord” Akira replied with a smile. Rubbing her cut palm on the seals protecting the sage garden. After a moment the blood was absorbed by the seal and one by one, they unlocked. In the moment a wave of Natural energy rushed through their bodies.

“This chakra, I’ve never felt it before ” Akira gasped.

“get used to it” Seiichi replied and extended his hand towards the ceiling of the cave. Expanded his sense. Seiichi blanketed the entire garden and with a single thought pulled ever root, herb, fruit, animal , lake, and more into the myriad realm. Placing it on the back side of the mountain bordering the second layer of the Myriad realm, natural energy cascaded through the realm. Seiichi had to send a message to the myriad realm to kick everyone out so they wouldn’t take in too much nature energy.

‘SkyNet, the Myriad realm takes in this world energy right?’

[Yes, Seiichi]

‘Then hasn’t it been taking in Natural energy this entire time?’

[…Based on the information given to me. If the Myriad miles, rivers, and mountain painting was in the tiny world. It would draw in soul force. If that’s what the owner cultivate. And power of heaven if it was in the draconic realm. Your situation is similar. Chakra is what you cultivate, so chakra is drawn into the Myriad realm. The Demonic chakra is just a chakra variation and as such the myriad realm continued to draw chakra.]

‘okay, I’m following. Continue’

[if at any point before this moment, you had decided to start sage training, the Myriad realm would have begun drawing in natural energy. But now that you introduced the energy to the environment it natural start to alter the environment pull that energy in as well]

‘Will the energy stabilize’

[Yes, it will find a perfect balance between chakra and natural energy]

Satisfied with the SkyNet’s words, Seiichi brought his attention back to the now barren land the Sage Garden used to occupy. Looking at Akira, Seiichi said, “Go to the Myriad Realm and then back to Konoha, it’s faster. Speak to the Hokage and inform her that Hiruko is threat to Niitabe and you need information to hunt him down. If she has any question. Make sure the room is sealed before informing her about my engagement to Niitabe”

Akira performed a bow before vanishing to the Myriad Realm, leaving Seiichi alone in the empty cave.

“Hagoromo! I know you’re somewhere. I need to speak with you!” Seiichi shouted into the air like a mad man. After a few moments of waiting. Seiichi was pulled into a dark realm.

“What is it, Boy?” Hagoromo asked with a frown on his face

Seiichi raised furrowed his brow, “what were you just doing?” he asked

Hagoromo released a cough, “Nothing! What do you want?”

“Hmmm, you should focus on the Uchiha boy more. Naruto is in good hands.” Seiichi replied and Hagoromo’s eyes went wide

“How did you know?”

“Because, Naruto should be in the land of Lion turtles, under going sage training with Jariya. Sage training is dangerous. And you always feared the power of your mother’s eyes. It would make sense for you watch over Naruto and support him from the shadows. Especially sense he’s the descendant of your only daughter, uncle, and Ashura’s line. I understand if you feel a strong connection with him.” Seiichi explained. Hagoromo put on a face full of nostalgia.

“He has more talent then I, thanks to you. Even I wasn’t worthy enough to study under the lion turtles and had to settle for those second rate frogs. Hell, even Myoboku sits on the back of a Lion turtle.” Hagoromo sulked a little

“Haha, After I kill your mother. You can tell me all about those sage secrets. But I want to know, why put the sage garden here and siphon nature energy from the God tree roots?” Hagoromo thought on Seiichi’s question for awhile and decided to just tell him the truth

“Those sage secrets are why the garden was put here. You can draw natural energy from anywhere. But, in small amounts, the strongest concentration of natural energy is here, because of the God Tree roots. It’s a lot of information, so listen closely…

When Lee Jun-Fan arrived in this world. He didn’t land on this continents. He landed on the continent of the Four elemental nations. Fire, water, earth, and air. This was long before my mother arrived. When she arrived, Lee Jun-Fan was at the end of his life span. He had journeyed here to escape persecution from what their continent calls the Avatar.

Long ago, during earths early history, their continent was much like our early continent. It was inhabited by normal humans…and spirits. The spirits were dangerous, so much so. That the human cities were built upon the backs of lion turtles for protection, and they were constantly moving. These lion turtles gave select humans. The ability to utilize one of the four elements. The energy they gave the humans, was natural energy. It was abundant in the world at the time. And then one day an evil spirit name Vaatu appeared and wished to devour all of the humans on the planet. His wife Raava decided to choose, one human to merge with her, to combat him, he became known as the 1st avatar. He Sealed away Vaatu from the human race. And then he sealed away all of the spirits. The only connection to the spirit world was through the Avatar. And he also bended all four elements. While the rest of the world broke into nations according to their perspective elements.

But one day, an avatar discover that the Lion turtles were also connected to the spirit world and could travel back and forth. Not only that, they could act as a gate way and release large amounts of Natural energy from the spirit world. As opposed to the small amount that seeps out and fuels their elemental bending abilities. Hunted down and executed. One of the last Lion Turtles in the human world, settled near our continent and eventually formed Mount Myoboku .

The god tree uses Natural energy to grow. Because most of it was sealed away with the spirits. Near the God tree is the most feasible place to plant the garden. The roots act as a conduit for natural energy on the planet, drawing whatever natural energy it can, to nourish itself. Siphoning that energy keeps a new god tree from growing and the plants nourished.”

Seiichi soaked up Hagoromo’s story and was thrilled to find out there was more to this world then he originally thought. “Why did the Avatar hunt Lee Jun-Fan? Why did the lion turtles gift only four elements when there are five? What happened to those spirits and the Avatar?” Seiichi had tons of questions. He was getting exited. A war with gods, mad spirits, and wild cards everywhere. Seiichi was really looking forward to the next three years.

“Hahahha, something has captured you interest? Lee Jun-Fan could bend all four elements with out being an avatar and taught his clan. So, the avatar exterminated them and Lee Jun-Fan fled here with a few members of clan. And to find out about their continent, I suggest you go on an adventure before you leave earth to take on the Celestial Clans.” Hagoromo replied

“Haha I think I might just do that. Okay last Question before I leave. How many Lion turtles are left in the human world? What is plants most energy rich water. Beside the pounds on mount Myoboku .”

“The hero water from Takigakure, the waters in the Sage Garden is years of dew from the God tree roots, all the other special liquids can be found on the for elemental nations continent” Hagoromo explained.

“Thank you Hagoromo, for everything. And could you deliver a message to Naruto, Tell him I need to speak with him.” Seiichi blinked and he was back in the empty cave. ” I guess I should look for Uzushio Sejikin now.”
