"I still need to search for the legendary place of cultivation... So I'll just send you here!"
In the bustling town of Land of Rice Fields, the mysterious portal to another dimension opened, and Yu brought Fuma Sasami back to the same town where they had met before, believing that the Ninja of the Fuma Clan would soon come here to find her.
"What... are you leaving me here alone?"
Seeing Yu sending her back to the town where they had met, Fuma Sasami dragged out her words with some disappointment, a hint of reluctance flashing in her beautiful big eyes.
Although the two had only spent a short day together, the mysterious, handsome, and powerful white-haired youth before her had undoubtedly left her with deeply unforgettable memories.
"Because the next place we're going to is completely unknown, it might be a dangerous place..."
Feeling the girl's reluctant gaze, Yu sighed helplessly and gave a faint smile, reaching out to gently tousle her long orange hair. "So leaving you here is the best choice. Your people must be searching for you everywhere. After all, you still need to tell them about your cousin's death, right?"
Yu was speaking the truth. He had never seen what Ryuchi Cave, one of the three legendary holy places, looked like. Even in anime, it had always been a mysterious and unpredictable existence. Bringing a young girl along would definitely be inconvenient.
Air Door!!
After saying this, without looking back at the girl's reluctant gaze, Yu directly had Kaio open the portal to another dimension behind him.
"Hey! But you haven't told me..."
"When will we meet again next time!"
Seeing Yu about to step into the portal, Fuma Sasami hurriedly stepped forward to ask, seeming unwilling to let the young man in front of her disappear forever from her life.
"Next time... let's leave it to fate..."
Upon hearing the girl's questioning behind him, Yu couldn't help but pause his steps, slightly turning his head to glance at the intriguing Fuma Clan girl. "If there's a chance... we'll meet again, won't we?"
With these words, Yu directly stepped into the portal to another dimension before him and disappeared, leaving Fuma Sasami standing alone in a somewhat lost state, murmuring to herself, "Will I really see him again..."
...
A deep and dark cavern, seemingly endless, with darkness so profound it felt like there was no light at all.
Above were vast stalactites stretching endlessly, while below were countless sharp stalagmites rising from the ground. Without relying on Observation Haki's sensory abilities, even Yu would find it difficult to continue forward in such an environment.
"We've been walking for almost a whole night..."

"Doesn't this cavern have an end?"
Walking slowly through this dark cavern, Yu could keenly feel the abundant natural energy all around him. However, without a specific method of Senjutsu cultivation, he couldn't absorb this natural energy on his own.
"There seems to be light ahead... We must be getting close."
"Since Orochimaru and Kabuto could find Ryuchi Cave, there's no reason I wouldn't be able to."
After continuing forward for some time, Yu's Observation Haki finally sensed the presence of what seemed like living beings nearby. And indeed, not far ahead, a faint yellow light could be seen, causing his spirit to stir.
Though this dark cavern was spacious enough, Yu believed it wasn't suitable for human passage, neither in terms of terrain nor visibility. It seemed more suitable for serpent-like creatures.
"Finally found it..."
After successfully navigating through the long, dark forest of stalactites, Yu finally entered into a vast and bright space. Dim candlelight faintly illuminated the surroundings. The first thing that caught his eye was an immensely huge stone seat, empty upon its surface.
Behind this gigantic stone seat was a wall carved with ancient dragon-shaped patterns. Prominent among them was a majestic dragon head, its sharp fangs holding onto a massive mysterious scroll, upon which were written three ancient characters—Ryuchi Cave.
"Is this the Ryuchi Cave, one of the three great sanctuaries of cultivation, alongside Mount Myoboku and Shikkotsu Forest..."
Carefully examining the mysterious and ancient vast space before him, Yu was wondering why he hadn't seen the legendary White Snake Sage when suddenly his Observation Haki sensed a surge of danger.
"It's been a long time since humans appeared in Ryuchi Cave..."
"Who are you? Why do you trespass into Ryuchi Cave?!"
In the vast and empty cavern, a voice echoed like the hiss of a python, and Yu felt an incredibly fierce gust of wind beside him, followed by an immensely thick tail.
Cobweb Wall!!
In the nick of time, Yu swiftly countered, using the abilities of the Thread Fruit to instantly condense a giant defensive web beside him, completely enveloping the opponent's attack.
Boom!!
However, countless towering stalactites and stalagmites were shattered, and Yu's Cobweb Wall, hastily conjured and released, was ruthlessly smashed through. Yet, seizing this opportunity, Yu finally saw clearly the enemy before him.
It was a completely red python, its pair of eyes larger than a well, gleaming with terrifying light in the dimness. The venom it spat out from its mouth alone was the size of Yu's entire body. Judging by its size, Yu estimated it to be similar to Orochimaru's most powerful summoning beast, Manda.
"Not bad in strength..."
"To be able to withstand the power of a Sage!!"
Seeing Yu's Cobweb Wall barely withstand the strike of its tail, a hint of surprise flashed in the cold snake pupils of the red python. However, its immense Senjutsu Chakra suddenly surged. "But humans who trespass into Ryuchi Cave can only become food for the serpent race!!"
"Sage Art: Inorganic Reincarnation!!"
With the roar of the red python, under the effect of its Senjutsu Chakra, countless sharp and massive stone spikes instantly pierced through the entire cavern around Yu, from all directions, aiming to completely impale him!
This jutsu wasn't simply Ninjutsu utilizing Chakra Control over material substances; it was a reincarnation Senjutsu that could imbue lifeless inorganic matter with life and control it. Therefore, under the effect of this jutsu, the speed of the inorganic matter's movement was unbelievably fast.
"So fast..."
"This is the Senjutsu of Ryuchi Cave..."
Never had Yu expected such power from a random red python in Ryuchi Cave. Faced with the massive stone spikes piercing from all directions in an instant, Yu's originally calm and composed expression finally showed a hint of seriousness.
Thread Storm!!
Storm Release: Chidori Current!!
The abilities of the Thread Fruit and the power of the Storm Release erupted simultaneously. Yu's hands suddenly spread open, and countless incredibly sharp threads burst forth from his body, spreading out from him like a violent storm.
Not only that, countless fierce and dazzling lightning beams wrapped around and clung to these sharp white threads, enhancing their cutting power once again, and directly slashing apart countless huge stone spikes that came exploding towards him.
