Ji Xing had already guessed halfway that the characteristics of Lucia that he didn't know about and didn't understand could only be related to hell.
At the beginning of the birth of the world, hell has naturally existed, earlier than Hollow, and earlier than the Spirit King. In order to prevent all human beings who had no life and death in the ancient times from gradually turning into Hollow, so that in the end there will be only one Devourer left in the world.
The Great Void of Heaven and Earth, the Soul King divided the world into the real world, Hueco Mundo and Soul Society, but he could not control hell.
He could only allow the three realms he divided to join the cycle of adapting to hell.
I don’t know what kind of standard the rules of hell are used to judge. In short, most people who have committed heinous crimes cannot go to Soul Society or Hueco Mundo after death. Instead, they will be taken to hell and be carried out in that harsh environment.
Atonement.
Those who are bound by the chains of hell are called blamers. They will sink into the torture of hell forever, be constantly killed by the guards of hell, and be resurrected again and again, enduring pain for eternity until their hearts give up completely and turn into sand and wither.
This is basic information that most of the Shinigami know, and there are things from hell everywhere around us, such as the hell butterfly that guides the Shinigami through the gate of the world, the knot that cuts off the boundary, and the hell that opens when the soul buries the most evil person.
door.
However, Soul Society also has strict orders that the God of Death must never peek into Hell, let alone enter Hell!
Hearing Aizen's answer, Byakuya's expression froze slightly, and Renji blurted out: "The breath of hell? A hell that only the most guilty can enter? Nonsense, how could there be something like that on Rukia?!
"
"Only those who have committed the most heinous crimes can enter hell?" Aizen said warmly: "No, this is not accurate. Byakuya Kuchiki, who was born in the four great nobles, you should know, and Yono-san must also understand that in addition to those who have committed the most heinous crimes, there is another kind of hell.
We go to hell after we die...yes, us.
It may take a while, Vice Captain Abarai. Once you master the swastika, you should be qualified to go to hell. We also learned the soul funeral ceremony at the Mao Spiritual Arts Academy."
Renji's eyes widened in shock.
This term is indeed very familiar.
The Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy teaches that because the captain-level Death God's pressure is too strong, it is difficult to find peace after death, and it is difficult to turn into souls and return to the cycle of Soul Society. Therefore, a soul funeral ceremony must be held for them to completely free their souls.
.
He also experienced it once, 43 years ago, when he was still at the Mao Spiritual Arts Academy, the soul funeral ceremony of the captain of the seventh division, Ratake Aikawa, who died in battle!
Could it be that...he subconsciously looked at Byakuya and Ji Xing and found that neither of them showed any surprise.
Aizen also continued: "That is not a ritual to bring peace to the soul. A Shinigami captain with third-level spiritual power or above, whose spiritual pressure is so strong that it cannot be degraded naturally after death, then they are garbage to the Soul Society, and their souls are
The funeral ceremony is a ceremony to send all the garbage to hell."
Renji's breathing paused briefly.
Is this the truth? The souls of the captains who fought and sacrificed for Soul Society all went to hell after death?! And they were sent to hell by their friends to be tortured?! Captain Luo Wu did it, and so did Captain Byakuya after his death.
Maybe in the future I will also...
"Nothing can be shaken, Renji."
Byakuya said in a deep voice: "If a Shinigami with third-level spiritual power or above is not restricted, it is enough for ordinary spirits to collapse immediately upon seeing it. Falling into hell after death is the price of this powerful power. This has been the case for millions of years. There is no need to
Resentment.
Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy does not teach the truth about ordinary death soul funeral rituals, and it just does not want to cause greater chaos. It is not its intention."
The spiritual power levels of Lingwei and Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy are different assessment methods for the pressure of the death god and soul density, covering a wider range.
The spiritual power level of ordinary team members who are not chief officers is generally around the 20th level. As they grow up, the number of spiritual power will become smaller and smaller. The deputy captain's level is from fourth to sixth level, and the captain's level is third level and above.
However, most of the current captains of the Seireitei are third-level spiritual powers. Unohana Retsu and Zaraki Kenpachi are second-level. Ji Xing was originally at the upper level of the second-level, and he was fully stimulating the fragments of the Soul King's internal organs.
At this moment when the power enters the 'Complete Holy Body', it may be possible to enter the first level of spiritual power.
The souls of these people will not perish after death and will not re-enter the spirit cycle. For the Soul Society, they are naturally 'big garbage' that needs to be dealt with.
But as Byakuya said, this is the underlying rule of the world, not a conspiracy, and concealing the truth is mostly out of good intentions.
Ji Xing only observed the unconscious Rukia in Aizen's hands and said: "She comes from hell?"
"I'm not sure either."
Aizen smiled and shook his head: "We know very little about the situation in hell. I just made a reasonable inference based on some known information, and I am waiting for verification.
But there is one thing that makes me very happy, and it is something that I have been verifying today, and that is that you, Yono-san, who 'knows' everything, seem to not know much more about hell than the ordinary Shinigami. You don't know about hell.
'."
Who told Kubo to only draw an easter egg and the beginning of the chapter on the 20th anniversary of the Death God, and then nothing happened afterwards?
But thinking of the easter egg, Ji Xing thought of something more - it was Rukia, the trainee Shinigami, and Renji's daughter, Abarai Maika. That child could detect visitors from hell that even captain-level Shinigami couldn't detect.
of spiritual pressure!
Is her specialness not an accidental mutation?
Is it something inherited from Rukia?
"I really don't know about Hell, but Vice Captain Aizen is a bit humble." Ji Xing said: "It should be the power of Hell that allows the Luo Yinde brothers to escape the control of Yhwach and follow you, and allows those Arrancars to escape my Zanpaku.
What the sword has absorbed should also be that you can already use the power of hell."
"To be precise, it means hell."
Aizen corrected: "The will of the special 'existence' of hell. But it is only a very superficial application, and it only allows them to be contaminated with the qi of hell in advance. If Yono-san can be allowed to absorb their souls and become tainted with the qi, Yono-san will
If Sang is also sent to hell, then it can barely be considered useful."
"Sounds really dangerous."
Aizen smiled: "No, I'm still far away. Sending Yono-san to hell may not be an effective action. But I still want to say thank you, thank you Yono-san for helping me send all my subordinates to hell.
, giving them the opportunity to transcend the shackles of talent and move to a higher level."
The Ten Arrancar Blades all possess spiritual pressure above the level of a Shinigami Captain, and possess spiritual power above the third level. They will inevitably fall into hell after death!
Starting from Grimmjow, Ji Xing sent away six of them in the previous battle, so Aizen's thanks... came from the bottom of his heart? Ji Xing couldn't help but smile and said: "The feeling of deputy captain Aizen has really not changed at all.
, so don’t be polite for this little effort.”
Next to him, compared to the relatively calm Byakuya, Renji didn't understand much of these conversations and didn't care much. He only gritted his teeth and said: "How on earth... did Lucia get involved with Hell!"
Aizen didn't mind that the conversation with Ji Xing was interrupted, he just smiled and said: "In my guess, she is a beam of light, the light of hell."
"Not to mention the innocent people who were sent to hell with third-level spiritual power and above, are there really no wronged and innocent people who are sinking into hell?"
He spoke warmly: "The rules of hell are cold and emotionless, but the words "heinous and heinous" have too many possibilities.
A filial son who tortures and kills his enemies to avenge his father and mother? A warrior who kills countless invaders to defend the country? In terms of the rules of hell and the amount of blood they are stained with, they are all "heinous" people, but in their hearts
All are bright.
That light protects them, and even if they sink in hell for countless years, their will will not change due to the torture of hell. And this light is irredeemable 'garbage' to hell."
Ji Xing understood what Aizen meant.
Just like third-level spiritual powers and above must sink into hell, it is not the spiritual pressure that determines whether the torture should continue, but the soul.
The essence of Rukia is the 'light' that hell could not break down and was returned!
Does Rukia have such a big background? Although Aizen said it was just a 'guessing', Kuchiki Byakuya knew that if it was just a guess, Aizen Sosuke would not be able to take such a risk.
He was silent for a moment and said: "I married Feizhen out of my own will, not out of the influence of the breath of hell."
"No, you don't need to separate the two. The civilian woman you like is Kuchiki Hijin who is affected by the breath of hell. It is not a separate hell breath, nor a separate civilian woman." Aizen smiled: "It's different.
Experiences and encounters constitute our complete and unique personality.
The same goes for me. Aizen Sosuke, whose plan was ruined by Yono-san and who pursued hell, is the me you see in front of you. I am the same person as Aizen who was looking forward to the collapse of the jade in the past, but he is not anymore."
"...What do you want to do with Rukia?"
"Do a trial and verification." Aizen turned around and said, "Tōsen, are you ready?"
"Yes, Aizen-sama."
Dong Xian, who had been standing silently, responded and put his hand on the handle of the knife.
At the same time, streams of black substance with a strange smell quickly floated on Dongxian Yao's body, leaving several people watching helplessly as his spiritual pressure disappeared.
No, it is hidden by the vapor of hell!
"This guy..."
Renji and Byakuya were both shocked when Ji Xing reached out to stop them, so the handle of Tōsen Kaname's sword, which was stained with Rin energy, successfully touched the back of Rukia's head.
There was a brief silence.
A ray of light suddenly illuminated the surrounding area.
I saw that Lucia's body seemed to be covered with a thin layer of gauze, and it was like moonlight waving from her body. She was obviously an onion-headed girl, but Lucia at this moment was incredibly beautiful!
The ability of the Zanpakutō is a reflection of the soul. It is probably no accident that Rukia has the most beautiful Zanpakutō sleeve Shirayuki in the Soul Society!
Enshrouded in the moonlight, the fire energy in Tōsen Kaname's body was purified and disappeared. Aizen released his grip on Rukia's hand, but Rukia, who was still in a coma, did not fall down and even floated slightly.
In Renji's eyes widened against the dazzling light, the light gradually gathered in front of Lucia, opening a dark red door!
The weird and dark lines, the two half-body skeletons greeting the guests, and the evil and unknown aura, it is undoubtedly the portal to hell!
Aizen, who has taken the initiative to open the door to hell many times, has confirmed that this door to hell is different from the previous ones. It does not come with the dangerous gas of hell. As long as it is deeply contaminated, it will completely fall into hell.
Angry!
Everything went as expected. Rukia, who passed through the hell's light Kuchiki, was able to open a relatively safe portal into hell!
But as soon as the smile of having everything under control appeared at the corner of his mouth, Aizen suddenly felt a crisis. It was not from Ji Xing. He would never let down his guard against Ji Xing under any circumstances. This was true a hundred years ago, and it will be even more true a hundred years later.
Yamamoto Shigekuni is entangled with Hasward, Zaraki Kenpachi is looking for the wrong path, and Unohana Retsu is unwilling to take action, so who can bring me a crisis?
"That's it, that's it."
"Virtual flash!"
Aizen's voice was swallowed up by the roar. On the side of his head, a pitch-black gun handle suddenly appeared from another space, and fired a powerful blue flash, swallowing his head!
At the same time, Kuchiki Byakuya's Senbonzakura scattered instantly, slashing across the arc towards the bodies of Tosen Kaname and Ichimaru Gin, Renji hurriedly followed!
Spiritual pressure splashed and intertwined, and the clashing sounds of weapons also echoed. The blue virtual flash suddenly penetrated several cells of the Black Rope Hell, and even lifted part of the dome. The blazing spiritual pressure was transmitted to the sky above Soul Society, allowing the outside world to
People’s attention gathers!
The captain stared with deep eyes, Urahara Kisuke was surprised, Kenpachi, who had guarded the gate for a long time and only killed a few enemies, came running over with excitement and laughter.
The location of Aizen's true body is no longer a doubt for Soul Society, and behind the bursts of gray sand, Aizen with slightly messy hair looks at the figure opposite.
"I should have thought that after killing Noyintra and the others, Yuno Sang found that he could not absorb souls and might change his strategy a little. Did he use the Perfection Technique to send you to a different space to hide the spiritual pressure? Stark?
, you betrayed me."
The one who suddenly appeared and attacked Aizen was none other than the first Arrancar, Stark, who had besieged Ji Xing with two Quincy guards!
The first person to respond to Aizen was Lilynette, the two guns in Stark's hands: "How dare you say betrayal?! We trust you so much, but you bastard deliberately let us die?! We didn't know what you just said.
Heard it!”
Stark then spread his hands and said, "You heard it, Lord Aizen, neither Lilynette nor I really want to go to hell to break any shackles."
Immediately he looked at Ji Xing: "Thank you for not killing me before."
"This shot is my reward." Ji Xing said with a smile.
"That's it, I respect your choice, Stark." Aizen's tone remained calm, and he smiled at Ji Xing and said: "You really can't be careless for a moment, but with Ye Sang, the portal to hell I want has been opened, you
Can you stop us?"
Ji Xing looked at the dark red door and handed over the unconscious Rukia to Byakuya and Renji.
"But I got the key back. Please come in, Vice Captain Aizen, I will help you lock it."
