--- Chapter 471 ---

The strongest of the Shinobi World felt at their weakest right now. 

Everyone who stepped into Kazahan Castle stared at the goddess-like woman before them. Clad in white, beautiful face, gentle pink eyes with scale patterns.

Dong Chan also surveyed the best talents in the Shinobi World. She can't help but sigh inwardly because they wasted their time here. 

'If they come around the same time as Madara, the Bright Spirit Empire's power will increase by a leap.' She thought to herself. 

Unfortunately, she knew such a thing was invalid now.

She opened her mouth and said, "First of all." 

"Line yourself up based on the villages and factions." 

"Um, if I may know, where is the Sword God?" Rasa politely asked because he knew he couldn't afford to offend Dong Chan. 

Everyone stared at Rasa in disbelief. 

Is this the Fourth Kazekage they know?

Dong Chan glanced at Rasa and giggled, "He's busy with something right now." 

"Don't worry, you will meet him soon." 

Naruto and Sasuke glanced at each other. They knew Yunlong was most likely in the Land of Spring nearby. 

However, they kept their mouths shut.

After all, they felt this woman was scarier than the Silver Dragon they met yesterday. Not just in power but also bearing.

Something about Dong Chan felt like a dignified ruler looking at them with a dull gaze. There is a hint of boredom, but they couldn't put their hand on it.

Dong Chan clapped, and their surroundings warped into that of a snowy field with Kazahana Castle in the background. Snowflakes are falling, creating such a picturesque sight.

"This is..." Everyone was at a loss.

They couldn't fathom how the world just changed around them.

Kakashi sighed, "This is just like Obito's Kamui Dimension."

"However, I can't even sense a ripple of it." 

"She just dragged everyone in without any of us noticing." 

"How scary." 

"It might be a Genjutsu." Said Shikamaru beside Kakashi.

Itachi shook his head at Shikamaru's statement, "If it's a Genjutsu, I would have sensed it immediately." 

"Kakashi-senpai is right. Sword God's wife dragged us to another dimension." 

A silent discussion occurred among the village representatives because Dong Chan's prowess was beyond their understanding.

Dong Chan smiled and explained, "Welcome to the Realm of Purity. It is not an illusion." 

"This is my domain, something one could obtain and develop in my homeworld." 

"Of course, there is more than one of them. It's not exclusive to me." 

Someone raised his hand, and it was Orochimaru.

"Yes, go ahead." Dong Chan allowed Orochimaru to ask.

Orochimaru opened his mouth and asked calmly, "I heard... After reaching a certain realm, it's possible to become a God."

"Orochimaru!" Tsunade's eyes widened in disbelief. This old comrade of hers never changed. 

He's very problematic. 

"That's right. After reaching Spirit Rank 100, one could become a God, but that's only the beginning of the bigger picture." Dong Chan stared down, gazing at Orochimaru with curled-up lips.

"You can use it as your temporary goal." 

"Spirit Rank 100..." Orochimaru mumbled with desire.

Dong Chan looked around, "Is there someone who wanted to ask more about related stuff? It is your last chance because I'd awaken your Martial Soul next." 

Several people raised their hands and asked Dong Chan about the Spirit Master's power system. She answered them patiently, and several minutes later, they understood what they signed up for.

They are excited now. 

If they could reach Spirit Rank 100 and become Wild God or 3rd Class God, they could live much longer and traverse many dimensions.

For those who were old, their young spirit that liked to discover new things got ignited at this very moment.

Dong Chan looked at them and asked, "Do you understand everything now?" 

"Yes, we understood!" Everyone answered simultaneously.

"Good." Dong Chan smiled faintly.

Unknowingly, everyone followed Dong Chan's lead and waited for her new words as if they were kindergarteners. 

What is more frightening is that none of them realized it. 

Who were they? 

They are Shinobi World's cream of the top.

They are Hokage, Elite Shinobi, who have experienced World Wars.

Their mentality is not something that bends easily.

Yet, not even Genjutsu Grandmasters like Itachi and Fugaku realized this fact. 

They fell into a world of hopeful purity. 

Dong Chan clapped her hand again, "Okay, let's start the Spirit Awakening Ceremony." 

"Yuena, Hayuri, Koyuki, come in." 

Gu Yuena walked into the Realm of Purity. 

She looked at Dong Chan's victims and couldn't help but shiver, 'Scary. She's scarier than Bibi Dong.' 

Don't mistake purity with kindness. 

Gu Yuene recalled a saying of the Dragon God. 

If one thinks you're not pure enough, what stops them from throwing you aside like trash? 

Hayuri walked to Dong Chan but noticed some familiar faces, "Ah, Naruto-san, Hinata-nee sama, Shikamaru-san!"

"Hayuri?" 3x.

"What are you doing here?" Naruto was shocked. After all, Hayuri was the younger sister of his former rival, Otsutsuki Toneri. 

Hayuri giggled and said proudly, "Teacher has taken me as her disciple!"

"Teacher..." Everyone moved their gaze to Dong Chan.

Dong Chan put on a gentle expression, "Hayuri is a talented child, so I decided to accept her as my disciple." 

It was a casual remark but created an uncomfortable ripple in everyone's heart.

'How nice it would be to have a literal goddess as your master?' They stared at Hayuri enviously.

Fortunately, Hayuri is still young. 

If not, she could be disturbed by these jealous gazes.

"Koyuki." Kakashi was stunned by the Land of Snow's Daimyo's sudden arrival here.

He facepalmed, "Ah, I see..." 

"I'm so dumb." 

"Since the gathering place is in the Land of Snow, how could she not be involved."

Everyone was curious about Koyuki's relationship with the Sword God and his wives.

Koyuki is older than Hayuri. She also dabbled in Land of Snow's politics for years, which means she understood what they were thinking.

She clasped her hand and said, "I decided to follow Yunlong-sama when he visited my castle a few days ago. He accepted my allegiance, and now the Land of Snow is his vassal territory." 

With this sentence, Koyuki declared she was the first to be chosen by Yunlong. It signifies a lot in the future because Koyuki will receive more benefits than them.

"Koyuki-sama. Your appearance..." The former Mizukage, Mei, looked at Koyuki's fair face with reverence.

Even though Koyuki's appearance couldn't hold a candle to Dong Chan or Gu Yuena, she's still a beauty that could top a country. Not to mention, people know she was a beautiful actress once.

Koyuki touched her fair face and replied, "Oh, this? Yunlong-sama gave me my youth back, but this is nothing compared to Empress." 

"Hoho, you're flattering me, Koyuki." Dong Chan covered her mouth and laughed gently. 

Every woman in the area was shocked. 

Who doesn't want to stay beautiful all their lives?

Heck! Tsunade and Mei used a secret technique to stay young, or they would have wrinkles. 

They paid a 'huge' price for it. 

However, Koyuki got it free!

The ladies' hearts tightened alongside their hands. 

They are determined to cultivate and reach the Realm of God. 

On the other hand, every man awkwardly looked at each other. 

'Aren't your goals too superficial?' Of course, they didn't dare to say this out loud because they feared the ladies would get angry.

Dong Chan inwardly lamented, 'Human hearts are nothing but clay. I only need to stir them slightly, and now everything is in my palm.'

She glanced at the Land of Spring afar.

'Don't worry. Yunlong.'

'By the time you're here, you will have a small army of loyal experts.'
