Journey To The True Martial World - Chapter 66
Months passed as Seiichi worked on finishing his trident and practicing his trident arts. The city’s economy began to slowly fall. Momoshiki took more from other subsidiary planets to make up the difference. Seiichi began to follow the same method, sending his people to different planets to repeat the same methods over and over again. Another two years passed and all of the planets in Naonus’s region were under Seiichi’s control. The gold, precious stones and metals were all flowing to Seiichi’s stockpile. Resource were constant divided, and cultivation was a must.
The planets were getting bleed dry and none of it was going to the Momoshiki’s branch. Seiichi made sure to send taxes to the main branch as to keep unwanted eyes distracted. By this time Momoshiki and his remaining kin were getting desperate. They didn’t have higher realm alchemy knowledge like Seiichi, and it was proving difficult to progress in their cultivation. And with resources magically dwindling no matter what counter measures they employed. The Otsutsuki found their cultivation speed drastically decreasing.
While the Jigoku’s were advancing at a very acceptable pace. Hinata was now at lead formation, half step bronze. Ino, Yakumo and the rest of the Jigoku were at initial core tempering and lead transformation. Seiichi however had only advanced to half step gold. It was proving to be a motherfucker to advance any further for the time being. It was proving equally hard to bring his Chaotic Trident to the next level. So, he focused on remaking everyone else’s weapons instead.
By the end of the third year, Momoshiki had done something completely unexpected. He had plant numerous good trees around the plant and began to siphon the planets energy. Seiichi didn’t mind this unexpected twist in the least, it actually made him wear a face splitting smile for days. He now had another oppurtunity to increase his odds of survival.
Cling! Cling!
“Huuuhh!”
Buunnngg!
The sounds of sparing echoed in a courtyard. “You seem to be doing better these days” Pakura spoke to Seiichi as that spared, Sword against trident.
“All I want is for our family to ascend together, and finally, I see an opportunity.” He replied “hmm” he launched forward thrusting his trident to deliver a blow to Pakura’s flaw in her stance. That was ultimately blocked in the end.
“That’s your first time calling us a family” she replied with an exhausted smile. She and Seiichi had been sparing since dawn. It was now high noon in the city of Avon.
“Yeah yeah, we can drink to it later.” Seiichi’s trident vanished and he walked to the container of cold water. “It’s time we live up to the name Jigoku. Momoshiki is making his move and has planted God tree’s Illegally to rouge. They will first eat the trees here, and then the trees under their car on different planets before the lay siege to main clan.” Seiichi explained as he sipped his water.
“Seiichi what are we going to do about this?” Yakumo asked as the group gathered around. She, along with Hinata and Ino were also back for a while. They had taken leave from the Cosmic academy, while the Inner disciples underwent observation, to select potential core disciples. Besides the people that Seiichi had brought with him. Fu’s servant girl, Xuefeng, Kiyoshi, Mai, and Natsu stood behind their perspective owners.
“We feed the beast. Get a message to Momoshiki. Sacrifices mean more nourishment for the God Trees. Then we discreetly inform them of the limitless possibilities that come from merging with a God Tree after eating its fruit. When that time comes, well absorb them all. It’ll be our last push for the summit of the universe. ” Seiichi explained with a smile. It had been a while since he wore a genuine smile.
The moment Momoshiki gave the order to plant god trees on Naonus for his use. Seiichi could finally predict his movements and a Lynch pin had revealed itself. This why Seiichi had a smile from ear to ear.
“So what stage should we be at when the Otsutsuki are ready to make their move? And what about all of the playthings in this room?” Karin asked
“Natsu, will have to speed up her cultivation and so will the whore… they are very far behind. But I recommend you all be at least at gold transformation stage.” He replied in an nonchalant tone
“Her name is Shuren, Seiichi” Fu interrupted, while holding Shuren close to her ċhėst, like Shuren was her pampered little girl.
“Well, Shuren needs to speed up her cultivation or be left behind, Fu.” Seiichi finished, staring daggers at her. Fu knew the terms of taking on pets. Even though, Natsu and Shuren were given resources, those resources were based on merit. And the two servant had no talent in cultivation. Forcing them to build extremely solid foundations through strenuous training to make up for the lack of talent in higher stages of cultivation.
“Wait about those girls” Pakura motioned towards Kiyoshi, Mai, and Xuefeng
“They’ll be left behind. And if the planet gets destroyed, they can use the array to escape.” Seiichi replied, the ladies had worked hard and showed great talent, but Seiichi didn’t feel that talent was great enough to nurture. “And you all should work on bringing the demonic yin harvesting technique to the 3rd layer. Go wild if you have too. Pluck them all” Seiichi added and left the room.
On the roof Seiichi activated his supreme eyes and observed the Otsutsuki progenitor and Izanami Marici . Shifting his sights, Seiichi stared into oblivion. His eyes began to glow, and a sacred geometry pattern appeared in his eyes. Seiichi was using his fortune telling abilities. Every ending ended with Seiichi being trapped in the Naruto verse until his last days, his chosen warriors would perish on by one due to a cosmic war. Reading the time line and all the possible cards he could play Seiichi stumbled on faint blue particles surrounding a missed opportunity. Yet, he had in left a deep enough foot print to cause some sort of chain rection.
“Hmm, I should probably look into it.” Seiichi stepped off of the roof and appeared near the lake where the transportation array was located. In font of him was the same pack of Behemoths that he had saw when he first arrived on Naonus. Behemoths Seiichi now knew as heretics according to the information that he had received from the shopkeeper.
“So, you have finally come!” an old voice bellowed out. “Whatever you need, we are here to serve. Although, Hamura has already made a deal on your behalf. His Eyes were unmatched when reading the book of souls. He expected you to arrive one day and in return for our aid. You will take our most gifted with you to the higher verses.” The old voice finished, leaving Seiichi wide eyes. He had expected something, but never the words that the voice had said.
“Well I’ll be damned…if Hamura knew so much then what is…”
“Fredrick Alfhiem…” the old voice and Seiichi had no words for this situation.
“The reincarnation eyes, might prove more beneficial in the future then any eyes I’ve acquired on my journey” Seiichi spoke in low voice
“Hamura does have one message for you. ‘your journey will be long Seiichi, but the higher the verse, the greater the cost of your fortune telling abilities. You must learn techniques that aid your visual abilities and strengthen them. You may be all powerful here. But you don’t even qualify to call yourself an ant in those verse.
Don’t rely so much on those eyes. And treat them as every ability that needs to be mastered and evolved, or else one do you may find them lacking when you need them the most. I have seen you transmigrate three times and reincarnate twice before you reach your final destination. Be sure to break the limit every time. And don’t be afraid to expand the Jigoku Family with good people”
Seiichi contemplated Hamura’s words for a moment, there many insinuations. But the thing Seiichi oddly found the most help was the bit about reincarnations. With much to think about at a later time, Seiichi pushed Hamura’s words to the side and said, ” Well then, I need your help. And eleven behemoths will do. Any cultivation materials you need, I’ll Provide it. But I want the 11 behemoths now, I’ll protect them and see that they cultivate properly.”
“Hmm very well, when will the battle start?” Old voice spoke
“just watch the skies. You’ll know it when you see it”
Presented with 11 behemoths of varying ages, Seiichi pulled them into his inner world and Returned to the city. While his ladies were harvesting primordial yin and the rest of his people were putting in overtime to reach gold transformation as fast as possible. Seiichi continued to upgrade everyone’s weapons and practicing his trident arts and Jutsus in preparation for his fight against the Otsutsuki.
