Everyone began to calm down and think about how to get out of this maze. Zabuza frowned and said, "We can't just walk around blindly like this. We have to find a way to identify a pattern."
Kimimaro observed the surrounding walls and said, "The light on these walls seems to be flickering in a certain pattern."
Jūgo hit the wall with his thick fist and said, "Why don't we just try to break these walls open?"
Mamba shook his head: "Don't be reckless. This maze must have its mysteries. Let's observe it carefully first."
Everyone began to move slowly along the passage of the maze, paying close attention to every detail.
Haku found that every time they came to a fork in the road, the frequency of the light flashing on the wall would change.
"What are these flickering lights?" Haku said softly.
At this time, Shigeo seemed to have discovered something and said to everyone, "Come and see, there are inconspicuous symbols under each fork in the road."
Mamba exclaimed, "What! It says... light. The number is 24?"
"24?" Haku suddenly realized and said, "I understand! Look at the flashing frequency of the lights beside these forks in the road. They pause for a long time after flashing a few times. Maybe the road that flashes 24 times is the exit!"
Everyone followed Haku's discovery and began to choose the fork in the road according to the frequency of the flashing light. After some twists and turns, they finally saw the intersection ahead that flashed 24 times!
"Is it the exit?" Zabuza quickened his pace.
When they walked to the light, they found that it was just a relatively spacious room with a huge stone tablet in the center of the room.
Kimimaro walked forward and carefully examined the words on the stone tablet: "It seems to record the method of getting out of the maze."
Mamba leaned over, took a look, and said, "According to what is written here, we need to find four mechanisms hidden in the maze to open the real exit."
Everyone began to look for mechanisms in the maze again, encountering various traps and obstacles. But with their own abilities and teamwork, they found three mechanisms one after another.
Just when they were looking for the last mechanism, dozens of shadowy figures suddenly appeared in the maze.
"Humph, I didn't expect you to get here." One of the figures appeared and sneered.
"Who are you?! Shadow people! Are there any more shadow people?!"
Zabuza glared at him: "You evil people, don't even think about stopping us!"
The two sides immediately started a fierce battle. The shadow people used powerful ninjutsu, and the four did not back down and used their own special moves.
Haku's ice release froze an area, restricting the movement of the shadow people. Kimimaro's bone spurs attacked the enemy like a rainstorm. Jūgo's Immortal Dragon Fist was amazingly powerful, and he knocked back several shadow people with one punch. Zabuza swung his sword vigorously, and the enemies avoided wherever the sword flashed.
In the fierce battle, Mamba suddenly shouted, "I found the last mechanism!"
As the mechanism was activated, the exit of the maze slowly opened.
"Go!" Zabuza shouted.
Everyone quickly ran towards the exit and finally escaped from the maze. However, before they had time to catch their breath, they found themselves in the depths of a mysterious valley. Thick fog filled the air, making it difficult to see the surrounding environment.
Zabuza said disdainfully, "Thick fog? Humph, I'm very familiar with it!"
"What is this place?" Jūgo looked around vigilantly.
Mamba took a deep breath: "This is probably the core area of the inheritance land."
Just then, a mysterious voice sounded in the valley: "To obtain the Mamba inheritance, you must pass the final test."
As soon as the voice fell, the fog around them suddenly turned into countless phantoms and rushed towards them. These phantoms had different shapes; some were powerful ninjas, some were terrifying monsters, and even... Otsutsuki!
Kimimaro was not afraid and rushed up first: "No matter what you are, don't try to stop us! Super Corpse Vein: Purgatory Bone Killing!"
Kimimaro's bone spurs instantly appeared all over his body, burning with blue flames. The next moment, Kimimaro inserted the bone spurs on the palms of his hands into the ground. Then, tens of thousands of sharp bone spurs with blue flames instantly pierced the ground hundreds of meters around Kimimaro, killing all the phantoms!
Others followed and fought desperately with these phantoms.
"Ice Release: Zero Degree Slash!" Haku's ice release attached to the blade, and he instantly pulled out a sword to cut! The ice blade bloomed with brilliant light in the phantoms, freezing each one. The next second, all the phantoms that were frozen into ice sculptures instantly shattered!
Zabuza's sword cut off the bodies of countless phantoms. Jūgo's Immortal Dragon Fist, with every blow, brought the power of destroying the world, smashing the phantoms to pieces.
Mamba was observing the situation and giving advice to everyone from time to time. After a hard fight, the phantoms gradually decreased. At the moment when the last phantom disappeared, a ray of light fell from the sky and enveloped everyone.
"This is..." Zabuza looked at his body wrapped in light in surprise. After the light disappeared, they found themselves in a mysterious cave, with strange runes flashing on the walls.
Mamba said excitedly, "This is where the Mamba heritage is!"
Everyone walked into the depths of the cave with awe. There, they saw a huge crystal ball, which contained powerful power. There was also a very gorgeous throne behind the crystal ball! A stone figure sat on the throne.
"Is this the power of the Mamba heritage?" Mamba muttered to himself.
Just as they were about to obtain the power of the inheritance, the phantoms appeared again, trying to snatch the inheritance.
"Damn! These guys are such a nuisance!" Zabuza shouted angrily, raised his sword again, and prepared to meet the enemy.
The blue flames on Kimimaro's bone spurs burned more vigorously, and his eyes were full of determination: "No matter how many times they come, I will kill them all!"
Jūgo clenched his fists, and the power of the immortal spell surged through him: "Come on! Fight again!"
Haku tightly grasped the ice blade in his hand and stared at the phantoms that appeared again with full concentration.
The phantoms surged like a tide, and the two sides fell into a fierce battle again. This time, the phantoms attacked more fiercely, as if they were determined to seize the Mamba inheritance with their lives.
Mamba shouted loudly: "Everyone hold on, we can't let them take the inheritance!"
Zabuza's broadsword swung in the phantoms, and each swing brought a sharp sound of wind, repelling the phantoms in front of him one by one.
Kimimaro's bone spurs pierced crazily, and wherever the blue flames reached, the phantoms were reduced to ashes.
Jūgo's Immortal Dragon Fist was like a violent storm, and each punch contained endless power, blasting many phantoms away.
Haku's ice release technique was used to the extreme, and the temperature around him dropped sharply. Pieces of ice blades shuttled through the phantoms, freezing them one by one.
