Naruto: The Savior of the Shinobi World is a Liar?

Without a doubt, the System's manifestation was based on the rules and logic of the current world. Apart from chakra, it couldn't create power systems from other worlds out of thin air.

  But Hyuga Kumo thought of a solution.

  That was to take the existing soul, body, natural energy, and chakra in the ninja world and indigenize and imitate the power systems of other worlds.

  Thereby constructing a logical "lie" that everyone believed in.

  Creating something from nothing, creating rules, deceiving the world.

  This was "deceiving Heaven and Earth" in the truest sense.

  [The Hollow Realm is the place of refuge for souls in the ninja world, its realm suspended in the gap between the present world and the Pure Land, shrouded in eternal night all year round, with no rotation of the sun, only a dim moon, its land as vast as snow, as desolate as death, the wind howling like the wails of ghosts, the sand surging like the rush of bones, and withered trees standing like forests of dead bones.]

  [The Pure Land is the realm after death opened by the Six Paths, and those who enter it are sealed in slumber. Chakra, like strands of silk, gathers in the Pure Land and is all under the control of the Six Paths, attempting to use the power of the dead to defend against enemies from beyond the sky, but its method is crude. Souls dissipate with the passing of years and eventually scatter into nothingness.]

  [Those who enter the Hollow Realm are all souls滞(zhì)于(yú)（lingering） in the ninja world, either hindered by their past wishes or entangled by seductive karma. After years of erosion, accumulating grief and resentment to corrode the soul, the heart and soul become ignorant over time, and the face is covered with bone armor. Their cries are like the simultaneous weeping of ten thousand ghosts, causing listeners to be torn apart. Their shapes are hunched and incomplete, like withered trees and decayed stumps, with Hollow Cavity open in their bellies like holes. I call them 'Hollow'.]

  [Their nature is to crave souls in order to fill the emptiness in their hearts. Gradually, they devour each other, their desires insatiable. Hundreds of weak Hollows mutilate and fuse with each other, forming huge figures like mountains, faces covered with long-nosed bone armor, and their intelligence is as ignorant as beasts, only relying on instinct to devour souls. I call them 'Lesser Menos'.]

  [Among them, if there are those who excel, devouring hundreds or thousands of their own kind, their bodies shrink and their intelligence opens, transforming into the appearance of bestial armor. However, they are constantly fearful, fearing the danger of degeneration, and must constantly hunt others of the same level to maintain their form. A little slackness will lead to degeneration and loss of intelligence. I call them 'Adjuchas'.]

  [Extremely rarely, the bone mask shatters and falls off, revealing the original human appearance, but the Hollow Cavity still exists, and their power is extremely strong. I call them 'Vasto Lorde'. However, this body has reached its end, and this thing has not yet been completed. Not being able to witness its birth is truly a regret...]

  "…What is this?"

  As Orochimaru's gaze continued to read, the expression on his face had gradually become dull.

  Although the text on the scroll was somewhat obscure, he had read many ancient books while researching ninjutsu, so he could naturally understand the words in the scroll.

  The Pure Land. Orochimaru, who had mastered the incomplete Impure World Reincarnation, naturally knew its authenticity.

  The soul. Orochimaru, who had now developed Living Corpse Reincarnation, also naturally knew it very well.

  But it was precisely because he knew so much that the seven parts truth and three parts falsehood content made him feel like his worldview had been shattered.

  However, because of his trust in the content of the scroll and his adoration for the scroll's owner, his worldview was instantly reshaped.

  The legendary Sage of Six Paths was actually real, and even the Pure Land was opened up by the Sage of Six Paths in order to resist the so-called "enemies from beyond the sky" in the future?

  And the owner of this scroll directly called the Sage of Six Paths, 六道(liùdào)（Six Paths）, and his words all looked down on the other party's means of opening up the Pure Land, and even opened up his own independent world called the "Hollow Realm?"

  "The Ōtsutsuki Clan actually possesses the ability to create the world?"

  Orochimaru stuck out his slender snake tongue, licked his somewhat dry lips, and murmured, "Could the Sage of Six Paths also be a member of the Ōtsutsuki Clan like the owner of this scroll?"

  Moreover, judging from the effect of Impure World Reincarnation, the Six Paths' "Pure Land" seemed to only retain the deceased's power during their lifetime, and they could not exert their full strength if the container quality was not good.

  The "Hollow Realm" created by the scroll's owner was obviously more cruel and cold-blooded, absorbing the souls of those who could not enter the Pure Land due to attachments and grievances, and then letting them kill and devour each other to create stronger souls.

  It was just that the scroll's owner seemed to have not been able to wait for the day when the "Vasto Lorde" was born.

  "Possessing such powerful power, is it still impossible to achieve immortality…"

  That thought subconsciously popped up in Orochimaru's mind, but he soon realized that it wasn't the case, because the scroll's owner only said "this body has reached its end."

  In other words, the scroll's owner was still alive, but for some reason, had to change bodies.

  The Sage of Six Paths probably hadn't died either, most likely in the form of a soul, hiding in the Pure Land while collecting the souls of the strong, waiting for the so-called enemies from beyond the sky.

  "The corpse I got from that Hyuga brat should be the body that the scroll's owner once abandoned, right?"

  Orochimaru's tail gently tapped the ground, thoughtfully saying, "With the terrifying power of that scroll owner, enough to create the world, if it were his real body, absolutely no one could bear it, and there might not even be any 'organs' at all."

  However, as soon as he thought of that kid named Hyuga Kumo, the intention to kill couldn't help but emerge in Orochimaru's eyes.

  If it weren't for that insidious brat, how could he have ended up in such a sorry state!

  That day, in a seriously injured state, he was suddenly summoned to Ryūchi Cave by the White Snake Sage using the Reverse Summoning Technique. Although he avoided the approaching Konoha pursuers, it also put him in a more dangerous situation.

  The great snakes, the Three Snake Princesses, and the White Snake Sage of Ryūchi Cave were all extremely greedy and cold-blooded creatures, and they were not as friendly to summoning contractors as Tsunade's Shikkotsu Forest and Jiraiya's Mount Myōboku.

  However, just as Orochimaru thought he was about to die in the jaws of a snake, the White Snake Sage, who had always been aloof and seemed to have everything under control, seemed to have seen something incredible.

  His originally indifferent attitude actually became enthusiastic, not only instantly healing his near-fatal injuries with a stone, but even offering to teach him "Sage Mode."

  It was just that the price he paid for this was becoming neither human nor ghost, and was always under the surveillance of Ryūchi Cave.

  "That old white snake must have seen something in me." Orochimaru frowned. "My destiny has been changed. What does that mean? Why does it feel so inexplicably similar to the child of prophecy that Jiraiya always has on his lips?"

  He couldn't figure it out.

  Whether it was Hyuga Kumo's sudden change or the White Snake Sage's calculations and plans, Orochimaru couldn't figure out the reason at the moment.

  He loathed this feeling of being covered in fog, unable to see clearly.

  "The most important thing now is what I can get from this scroll."

  Orochimaru shook his head, shaking off the cluttered thoughts, and looked down at the content behind the scroll again.

  The back recorded some of the scroll owner's essays in the "Hollow Realm." Orochimaru even saw some familiar but unfamiliar names, which seemed to be names of characters that had appeared in some ancient legends.

  However, in the mouth of that scroll owner, those people seemed to have really existed, but had been fed to the Hollows by him.

  Until Orochimaru flipped to the very back of the scroll, the content behind it was sealed again, and his gaze stopped on the last sentence.

  [The passage between the 'Hollow Realm' and the ninja world, I call it 'Space-Time Rift', secretly hidden on an isolated island overseas. I sent my servant 'Grell' to guard it for generations.]

  [I once strictly warned him, saying, 'Hollows' are the result of evil spirits dwelling there, and must not be artificially cultivated, nor can the passage be opened, otherwise…]

  The last line of the scroll was just stuck in the seal, and Orochimaru couldn't see it clearly at all.

  However, from this short sentence, he understood one fact.

  "The Hollow Realm and the ninja world have a passage, and it can still be opened."

  Orochimaru's hand holding the scroll trembled slightly, and a hint of greed and contemplation appeared in his eyes: "Hollows can be artificially cultivated…"

  At this moment, Orochimaru had quietly made a decision in his heart.

  The choices of the scroll owner and the Sage of Six Paths had proved that the flesh would eventually decay, and only the soul had the possibility of being immortal.

  It was just that simple spirits were too fragile. The so-called "Vasto Lorde" could be called extremely powerful by the scroll owner, so the power they possessed must be unparalleled, right?

  "Only souls that are hindered by their attachments and harbor resentment in their hearts can be transformed into Hollows after prolonged erosion?"

  Orochimaru raised his head, his gaze flickering slightly: "Then let me try it, whether it is cultivation or summoning..."

  He wanted to try to cultivate "Hollows," steal the power of "Hollows," search for the so-called isolated island overseas, and find the "Space-Time Rift."

  The Second Hokage could summon the souls of the dead in the Pure Land with Impure World Reincarnation, so why couldn't he, Orochimaru, summon the Hollows of the Hollow Realm with Impure World Reincarnation?

  It was simply that he needed to connect the summoning location, that is, find the so-called Hollow Realm.
