Chapter 214: The Tale of Past
[Indra's Tritya Panth] was neither chakra intensive nor that hard to draw with his experience. That's the beauty of seals. Of course, years of training and preparation of various items during the training period cannot be ignored, but that's almost universal.
Kai achieved substantial results with all seven clones working together, from 3000 runes to 33000 and morehe leveled his new skill twice. Kai would have gotten an even better result had he used shadow clones instead of wood clones. But nothing beats the passive training of his [Mental] and [Perception] stats.
Even if he only leveled up twice, he could start to unravel the Stone Tablet an hour before the break of dawn. The other wood clones continued to grind the new skill as one of them sat in front of the stone tablet with a flicker of understanding.
Only this one remained in his Sage Transformation to look out for any cum-man that might drop by. His draconic nail scrapes the surface of the stone tablet, but it fails to leave a mark.
'If this was some kind of a game world, this stone tablet would have been an enchanted item of the highest order. So many protective seals damn! And a similar seal resonating with the kekkei genkai of the Uchiha act as a key to unlock what this stone tablet has to offer.'
'Three stages of regular sharingan and mangekyo sharinganmake four keys. But there is another seal. A total of five barriers. The most fascinating thing is that these layers do not seal words.'
Kai begins to infuse his chakra into the stone tablet. He was not an Uchiha, but that didn't stop him from pursuing Mikoto or having a sharingan, and it won't stop him now.
Seals react to his presence. And they begin to reveal their nature as he decodes it, to put it bluntly.
Words fluctuate and ripple on the stone tablet. The first few words of caution re-emerge.
'This is Genjutsu.'
Kai takes a deep breath.
A Genjutsu that has survived till now. This genjutsu on the stone tablet is not anchored on any seal. It exists in reality. If Nono found out about this, she'd cream her panties and milk a lot more stuff by creating the wildest Genjutsu illusions known to humanity!
'Seals protect the stone tablet and divide this strange Genjutsu. It's almost like Izanagi. Did some old Uchiha write this genjutsu? But this Genjutsu is still better than Izanagi. It persists to this day and is powerful enough to be sealed in multiple layers.'
That's what Kai discovered.
The stone tablet is not carved. A Genjutsu is cast on the tablet instead.
A Genjutsu that reacts wonderfully with seals and divides a tale based on the Uchiha's sharingan.
Kai silently works his way to unlock the second layer of the seal. It takes time and patience, but not more than 17 minutes. Even if he completed the grind, he would only be quicker by a few minutes since all the seal matrices are intertwined like a neat web. Impatience in untying the metaphorical knots may ruin everything he worked for tonight.
Let not emotions ruin you; pain is the beloved offspring of love.
Strength is meant to be used for good; forge your path in this world of conflicts.
Fret not pain; Fear not loss.
Fear not the blessing of Six Paths reflected in the eye of magatama.
It is strength's nature to bring peace.
"Huh?"
Kai frowns.
The fuck?
'This Genjutsu is fucking tampered? Understanding the flow of the target's chakra and lacing your chakra alongside the Genjutsu is how we reverse a Genjutsu. But I would not have noticed this on the stone tablet if not for the seals acting a little restrained around the genjutsu. This did not occur in the first part of the tablet. Before that, I wouldn't have sensed the seals acting strange without being in my Sage Transformation either.'
Getting more engaged by the mystery of the stone tablet, Kai starts unsealing the third grid. This level is for the Uchiha members with sharingan developed to three tomoes.
It doesn't take Kai more time than before. The matrices are the same, after all. It's only the content reflected on the stone tablet that differs.
Limits are imposed by the mind; It is broken by pain.
Three is not the end, but it should be.
A broken heart must not encounter pain, for it shall rot.
A shattered soul must not consume strength; He who shall suffer.
Beyond three is a world of corruption.
Only those with a heart of love can accept the pain and suffering.
Only the self-sufficient are the ones able to rise.
Mangekyo sacrifices heart; One must never lose their love.
For those uncorrupted, gifts of Six Paths awaits.
Dream of the blessings.
The Eyes are the gateway to the truth.
'This is tampered with, too. But in what areas?' Kai frowns and starts working on the next seal.
By the break of dawn, he is done with the portion available to the owners of Mangekyo Sharingan.
Strength is blinding; the world fades.
Beyond three is pain; It is felt.
Heartless and without vision.
The eyes reflect on the tailed names.
Heaven leaves a path; Six Paths awaits.
The flesh is weak for Indra; Find the Asura's flesh.
The vessel and the eye unite; Six Paths is overjoyed.
Samsara is held.
Pain vanishes; Heart returns.
Eyes open to Six Paths.
Mother blesses her sons; Kaguya welcomes her son.
Samsara is achieved.
Kai, all of him, adopts a dazed look.
Samsara.
The word passes through the eight halves of his consciousness before recollecting to form a pair of purple eyes with a rippling pattern.
Rinnegan.
"Sharingan, Mangekyo, and Rinnegan. Of the three great dojutsus, two falls under the same evolutionary chain. So this tablet cautions against power and then leaves a way to let other Uchihas gain said power? Seems counterproductive. Or it could be the contents that tamper the Genjutsu in the first place wait."
"Fuck that."
His eyes glint.
Things just became a lot more complicated.
Rinnegan did not belong to Nagato. So, the original owner of these eyes is either the actual sage of six paths or an Uchiha.
'An Uchiha'
Names of many revolutionary Uchiha talents appear in his mind, but they all are dead.
'Let's see what the last seal has to say.'
Kai begins working quietly. Yet, he thinks about the issue of dojutsus.
Is there a way to upgrade the sharingan marked on his right eye? Should he just pop Rinnegan in his left eye and give it a shot? The burden may be heavier than he expected, but then again, he wouldn't pop the eye in his socket itself. He would convert the eye into chakra and implant it in his left eye.
This also makes him wonder about another thing.
Does Yata have a mangekyo? Or Fugaku? If the condition to achieve Mangekyo is 'losing heart,' then the previous wars should have sufficed. The thought rouses his interest.
He wants to know what a Mangekyo sharingan can do. The tablet and the collective records of Uchiha and Lord Second suggest that these more developed Dojutsu have exceptional gifts. The stone tablet proposes the same thing.
Not to mention their ability to 'reflect' on Tailed Beasts. That's a powerful boost to Genjutsu right there.
Kai works on the stone tablet with renewed vigor to unseal the last bit of this tale.
Strength is meant to be used for good; forge your path in this world of conflicts.
Fret not pain; Fear not loss.
Fear not the blessing of Six Paths reflected in the eye of magatama.

Eyes open to Six Paths.
Mother blesses her sons; Kaguya welcomes her son.
Samsara is achieved.
The tale of saving the world is the first.
A fruit of the divine, a princess in peril.
Kaguya consumed the fruit of the gods.
Samsara was created.
Then came Six Paths; A dutiful son.
Kaguya earned chakra from the fruit; Six Paths was born with it.
Seeking stability, Six Paths created Yin and YangIndra and Asura.
The Mother saw the pain of life; The Princess was no longer innocent.
Samsara is the key to peace.
With the power of Samsara, reflect dream on the moon.
Peace is brought to the world.
All dreams will come true.
There will be no hate or pain.
Collect all tailed names to return them.
Ascend with the strength of ten divines.
Await Kaguya's blessings.
It awaits you in the world of dreams.
What a load of Bull!
'This might be the first piece of indoctrination recorded in this world,' Kai huffs and stands up.
As interesting as all these sounds, that is without a doubt, bullshit.
Kaguya?
Indra?
Asura?
Who the fuck cares?
And if you want to write down a path to power, be clear!
His hair would grey out trying to figure out this inconsistent crap.
Half the material is about peace and the other half is about pain and some kind of wish-fulfilling Jutsu that only someone far from reality can think of!
But
He did think of something amusing.
'Ten divine? By returning all the nine beasts? Return them where? With how all this sounds, it looks like the Uchiha clan gets to know about their special gifts after the usual Sharingan through dreams.'
'I've had the eye for some time, so it doesn't seem it will be true for me. But still is there a ten tails?'
He returns everything to the way it was before leaving.
'The best way is to ask Kyubi. Hope she's not pissed as usual.'

A/N: I did not leave a layer of seal for Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan because it wasn't needed by Indra or Hagoromo. The need for Eternal Mangekyo began in the later line and Madara seems to be the first one to ever achieve it. And I did not want to divide all the layers and content on the tablet across multiple chapters, so I did all of it at once~!
