Chapter 613: One Hundred Arts of Immortal Cultivation: Alchemy!

The people organized wave after wave of rebellions, and a large number of villagers chose to become bandits and rob passing caravans, further disrupting the market.

Merchants wanted to transport goods, so they had to hire ninjas for protection. However, the increase in costs led to another increase in prices, causing more people to join the ranks of bandits and pirates.

The daimyo had no choice but to spend huge sums of money to hire ninjas to quell the rebellion, which undoubtedly made their already tight financial situation worse.

At the same time, the ninjas in various villages became richer and richer because of the high rewards.

Although prices continued to rise, the income of ninjas continued to increase, so ninjas became the only class that was not affected in this chaos.

Even if they could be ruthless and ignore the people who begged for mercy, they could easily suppress the local rebellion.

Therefore, the major ninja villages were not only not panicked, but believed that better days were coming.

What's more, some small ninja villages chose to cooperate with the rebels and use the rebellion to gain benefits.

They deliberately condoned the rebellion, allowing the rebels to reappear under different names every once in a while, and then colluded with the ninjas to defraud the daimyo's money.

The boomerangs that the daimyo originally used to deal with the ninjas are now gradually flying back and hitting themselves.

What is even more frustrating is that in the ninja world that possesses extraordinary power, the lower class people will never be able to resist the nobles,

because the nobles can hire ninjas, and compared to ordinary armies, even a small team of ninjas can easily influence the situation of a war.

As long as the exploitative group of the nobles exists, rebellion will always exist.

The world has fallen into an era of vicious cycle, which has led to the increasing chaos of the entire ninja world,

...

...

In sharp contrast, the fairy world is becoming more and more prosperous.

A large amount of land and resources are continuously drawn into the fairy world, causing the strength of the fairy world to expand rapidly.

The ninja nobles took this opportunity to continuously expand their sphere of influence and keep more civilian ninjas.

In just a few months, six lucky nobles successfully broke through the bottleneck and were promoted to the level of the Six Paths.

Originally, according to their idea, they would become the ruler of the sacred mountain, and together with the original Uchiha Xiao and the other six, they would be called the Twelve Main Gods.

However, when they reached the sacred mountain and met the six main gods, they found that there was still a huge gap between themselves and the older generation of strong men.

After all, when they were still plundering around the ninja world, Xiao and others, as the rulers of the fairy world, were not idle.

Even if they did not take any action, the benefits brought by taxes alone would be enough to make these up-and-coming talents far behind.

Not to mention the existence of an alchemist like Xiao.

Relying on the research of Xici's alchemy and Bingliang Pills, Xiao gradually developed the alchemy of the first of the hundred arts of cultivating immortals.

Xiao can use various herbs and minerals with chakra to make various magical pills.

These pills can quickly restore chakra, treat injuries, and directly improve strength, and can even directly change the body structure, allowing the user to ascend to heaven in one step.

The advantages brought by the pills are far beyond those of those who rely on their own chakra and blood limit to slowly improve.

Relying on taking pills can even directly eliminate the advantages brought by the natural blood limit.

Therefore, these six newly promoted Six Paths strongmen can only retreat to the second place and dare not be on par with the six gods.

…

Ninja world, Konoha Village, Uzumaki Naruto's home.

Naruto, Hinata and Haruno Sakura sat in the living room with sad faces, discussing something.

The hearts of several people were full of worries and uneasiness.

It has been several months since Boruto, Sarada and Sasuke disappeared, but there is no news about their whereabouts.

Naruto almost mobilized the power of the entire Konoha to search, but the children and Sasuke are still missing.

What's worse is that during the period when these three people disappeared, the environment of the ninja world began to deteriorate sharply.

The situation in the rich Fire Country is slightly better, but the living conditions of the other four countries are becoming more and more difficult.

The drop in sea level caused the complete collapse of the tourism industry in the Land of Water, and fishermen had to venture into deeper waters to fish;

Thunderstorms and acid rain eroded the land of the Land of Lightning, causing a significant reduction in food production;

Sandstorms swept the Land of Earth, causing it to gradually transform into the Land of Wind;

And the already scarce oases in the Land of Wind began to wither.

Even the Land of Fire began to be frequently hit by earthquakes.

These disasters seemed to foreshadow the coming of the end of the world, bringing fear and despair to people.

The Ninja Village was better off due to a large number of suppression tasks, but as time went on,

the Fairy Ninjas gradually began to reduce the sale of supplies, further exacerbating the increase in the price of supplies.

In order to eat their fill, the top leaders could only exploit the people again, and the contradictions with the people became more and more intense, and the people's resistance became more and more intense.

The ninjas even killed until they were soft-handed, and finally could not bear the guilt in their hearts and chose to defect, and even joined the rebels.

The people no longer worked hard to farm, but began to flee.

However, the disaster swept almost the entire world, and no matter where they fled, it was the same.

There was a great famine, and people ate each other.

These are just six words in history, but these six words, which popped out of history books and fell into reality, can crush the entire human race.

In the second year after the arrival of the immortal ninja, the world has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The land that once belonged to the Western Continent has now been completely hollowed out by the immortal ninja, leaving only a vast ocean.

After losing these lands, the balance of the earth was gradually broken, causing the entire planet to fall into a top-heavy state, and even the normal spherical shape was difficult to maintain.

This imbalance triggered a series of terrible natural disasters: earthquakes, tsunamis, strong winds, etc., which attacked people all the time.

As time went on, even the ninjas in the powerful country's ninja village gradually felt powerless.

The harsh environment continued to deteriorate, supplies became increasingly scarce, and there was less and less food on the table. Even if you had money, you couldn't buy enough food.

This made people's lives extremely difficult, and every day was a huge challenge to survival.

In the face of this global disaster, the Fire Country became the only country that could barely provide enough food and supplies.

In contrast, the other four major countries seemed to be forgotten corners of the world, with living conditions deteriorating day by day, almost approaching a life-forbidden zone.

In order to survive, a large number of people were forced to migrate inland to the Land of Fire.
