"Where is this place?"
Orochimaru was in a space surrounded by endless darkness. He looked around calmly and then looked down at himself...
"Huh? Is this... an illusion space?" Orochimaru looked at his hands in surprise.
This was his real body. The effects of the "Shiki Fujin" were still there. He had no feeling below his elbows and could not make seals.
"No, this is the gap between countless universes, the most real corner of endless time and space." Guan Liyuan's figure also appeared here.
At the same time, there was also a fat penguin with a red scarf.
Orochimaru looked at the penguin twice more, as if he wanted to know what kind of creature it was.
"You are stronger than I thought... What do you want to do by sending me here?" Orochimaru's voice was still calm.
"You don't seem to be afraid?"
"No, I'm trembling." Orochimaru said insincerely.
"I'm afraid you don't understand your situation yet? Although you are in other places, you must have made backup plans... For example, you have a curse seal containing your chakra with your students in Konoha? But it's useless. Those backup plans also require your soul to ascend to heaven before they can take effect? And I can keep you here until the universe is destroyed!" Guan Liyuan said.
Orochimaru didn't speak this time, but he was still hesitant in his heart. What exactly is this place? Real or illusory?
Through asking Sadaharu and with the analysis of Penguin, Guan Liyuan has discovered that the rules of life and death in the world of Naruto are very special.
After the death of intelligent creatures, the "soul" will enter another space, which is what they call "Pure Land of Bliss", but unlike the Soul Society of the world of death, after the intelligent creatures in the world of Naruto enter the "Pure Land of Bliss", their form of existence will be completely different from that of living creatures.
For the dead, time, space, thinking... all are meaningless. They just exist, and do not interact with the living space, nor do they think...
However, there are some forbidden techniques that will make the two spaces interact, such as "Immortal Reincarnation", which is to guide the soul of the dead space back to the world of the living through the genetic information before death!
In a sense, the rules of life and death in the Naruto world are not strict, and it is relatively easy to break through the spatial division of life and death.
Guan Liyuan speculated that the resurrection mechanism after Orochimaru "sowed" everywhere must have his soul in the "Pure Land of Bliss" before his "seed" can develop.
Otherwise, Orochimaru will have a few more brothers!
But in the small black room of the forum, Orochimaru's soul will sink forever...
If it is not the small black room of the forum, it must be activated when someone violates the rules of the forum. Guan Liyuan believes that even if the Demon King is locked in, there is no chance of breaking through.
"Is your corpse reincarnation actually a failed technique?" Guan Liyuan suddenly asked.
"Oh? Failed? How do you know?" Orochimaru did not deny or confirm.
"Guess... Reincarnation after reincarnation will only make your soul weaker and weaker, and the imprint of your body will become weaker and weaker, far from achieving immortality."
"No, although the previous reincarnations did find the conflict between the soul and the body, as long as..." "
Improvement is useless. Using the method of non-corpse reincarnation is always subtracting for yourself! You can't fail to see this. I think... it should be because your body has been irreversibly damaged in the first reincarnation, so you can only go on this wrong path?" Guan Liyuan said.
Orochimaru's "non-corpse reincarnation" was realized from the white snake's molting. When Orochimaru was young, he found a scale skin shed by a white snake in front of the tomb when he was paying homage to his parents, and the third generation told him that the white snake is a symbol of immortality...
and Orochimaru's greed for "immortality" took root from this time!
But now Orochimaru's "non-corpse reincarnation" is different from the white snake's molting in terms of logic... Orochimaru didn't see a hermit crab!
"Reincarnation without Corpse" requires plundering other people's bodies to continue life. It is completely different from the white snake that symbolizes immortality and luck. After shedding its skin, the white snake makes itself "brand new" instead of occupying other bodies.
And the consequences of occupying other bodies are obvious.
Not only is Orochimaru's soul weak now, which leads to extremely low resistance to illusions, but although Orochimaru has made great achievements in forbidden techniques, research, etc., in terms of pure strength, he is not as good as Jiraiya, who is as famous as him...
"Reincarnation without Corpse" is not just a simple transfer of souls. Orochimaru's "body" has always existed, and has even been transformed into the form of a "white phosphorus snake".
It can be seen that in each "Reincarnation without Corpse", it is better to say that Orochimaru is not changing his body, but rather that his "body" is in poor condition and needs a layer of "coat" to protect his body!
And he has to constantly transform his body into something more strange so that it will not collapse and ensure that the body can wear the "coat".
The stronger the coat is and the better it fits his body, not only can he exert stronger strength, but he can also use it for a longer time, reducing the frequency of reincarnation to protect himself...
Orochimaru's face has proved what Guan Liyuan said!
"What do you want to say?" Orochimaru's tone finally softened.
"I can give you a body that is exactly the same as your original body, and transfer all your remaining souls to this body... Although this will make you lose many means of saving your life, but regaining an undamaged original body should be what you really want?" Guan Liyuan said.
Orochimaru's eyes stagnated, and he didn't believe what Guan Liyuan said from the bottom of his heart. Since his first failed "reincarnation", how many ways has he tried to repair his original body? But none of them succeeded!
In the end, he could only choose to make the best of a bad situation to make himself live as long as possible...
"What's next?" Orochimaru forced himself not to sound too expectant.
"Of course I won't give you a body for free. Consider it as I rent it to you. The trial period is three months. As for the rent... I'll tell you later! By the way, as a punishment for your attack on me, you owe me a hundred years..."
Orochimaru didn't have any bargaining chips, and even if he wanted to negotiate, he had to wait until Guan Liyuan agreed on what the "rent" was!
Can't you just help him build a body?
No, the forum only serves members and does not have the function of building bodies for others.
Is it only possible...
That's right, now you can use the fact that he is locked up in a small dark room for allegedly stealing your "account" to let him share some of his permissions temporarily, and use your permissions to help him shape his body... But in this case, it must be split from your body.
Penguin's words made Guan Liyuan a little depressed. Although this was a convenient condition for bypassing the forum rules because of his "administrator" status, Guan Liyuan still felt awkward when he thought about using his own body to "hatch" another body!
Forget it... It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one! Guan Liyuan comforted himself with the excuse that "this is not my real body anyway, it's just an incarnation."
At the same time, in the "outside world", when Guan Liyuan showed his chest...
"This, this is..."
"Lord Orochimaru?"
"How could it be..."
As Kimimaro, Kabuto Yakushi and Jūgo stared in amazement, Orochimaru's facial features gradually became clear, and he finally jumped out of Guan Liyuan's chest...
Orochimaru didn't care about his figure at all, but smiled and said, "That's right... That's right! It's my real body! It's restored... It's restored to the way it was before the first mistake!"
Well, Orochimaru obviously couldn't tell that the avatar generated by the forum was different from his real body!
Unlike Guan Liyuan's avatar, Orochimaru's avatar only reproduced his body 100%, without adding other abilities and potential bloodlines, which was equivalent to making Orochimaru regress to the state before the first reincarnation experiment failed...
