Xuan Hao was like a person standing in the middle of a tunnel at the moment. There was darkness in front of him and behind him, and he didn't know where the road was leading. Observing the strange environment around him, he probably knew where he was at the moment. This was a place in the real world.
The gap between Hueco Mundo and Hueco Mundo - the 'broken boundary'.
"How careless..."
Xuan Hao raised his head and looked at the dark chaos in the sky. The space there seemed to have never been torn apart, with no end and no way to break through.
It's obviously impossible to go back the way you came.
All he can do now is move forward or backward.
And he found that his physical state seemed to have changed. To be precise, at the moment he fell into the black cavity, his flesh and blood body seemed to have been forcibly decomposed by some kind of force, and now he was in the state of a soul.
.
If he was just an ordinary person, he would probably be dead by now.
Flesh and blood are swallowed up by the black cavity. This is the rule of this world. It is impossible for a human being to reach Soul Society or Hueco Mundo with flesh and blood. Unless he is completely above the rules of this world, even he cannot violate such rules.
.
There are only two ways for living humans to enter Soul Society or Hueco Mundo. One is to die, and the other is to use the "Spirit Converter" made by Urahara Kisuke a thousand years later.
"So what to do now?"
Xuan Hao looked at the dark space around him with a headache.
Now is probably the worst case scenario.
Because this is neither Hueco Mundo nor Soul Society, nor the real world, but a ‘broken world’ located at the crack between several spaces.
He finally understood what Yhwach meant by the 'space with nothing'.
He is now trapped in the 'Border' by Yhwach.
Although it is said that this place can lead to any place in the 'real world', 'Soul Society' and 'Hueco Mundo', the prerequisite is that the coordinates must be set up and there must be a 'door' connecting the two places.
Xuan Hao didn't need to think about it to know that Yhwach definitely wasn't so kind as to prepare a door to other worlds for him. If nothing else happened, that guy must have just torn the gap into the 'Breaking World' and then exiled him in
Just here.
And being trapped here is not a troublesome thing. As long as you have enough time, you can always think of a way out.
The crux of the matter is - there isn't really 'nothing' here.
The reason why there is nothing in the world is very simple, because there is a 'scavenger' here who cleans up all existence - Kutu.
Neither the God of Death, Hollow, nor Quincy can do anything about it, because spiritual pressure has no effect on it.
It's like a reiatsu train traveling through the Great Barrier, crushing everything on the track.
The most important thing is that Jutu is not a simple creature, but an existence similar to a 'theory'. Even if it is destroyed, it will be reborn.
The meaning of its existence is to prevent everything that enters here from staying in this area for too long. Whenever it appears here, it will destroy all matter that blocks its trajectory, whether it is soul or other things, once it is
When it devours, it truly returns to nothingness.
In other words, it exists to maintain the rules of separation.
"I see. Is this your plan? Yohabach."
For some reason, an intriguing smile appeared on Xuan Hao's face.
Now he is trapped in a broken world, and he currently does not have the ability to open the door to other worlds. Just like a person locked in an infinitely long track, sooner or later he will be crushed by a train that appears out of thin air. And this is probably
This is what Yohabach wanted to achieve.
boom--
Sure enough, Cao Cao arrived.
Just when Xuanhao had just figured out Yhwach's purpose, the entire inner wall of the 'tunnel' began to tremble violently.
"Wow, this is much more exciting than the train."
Xuan Hao turned around and looked at the light in the distance that looked like car lights with interest.
Those are bulging eyes.
The entire broken boundary seemed to begin to tremble, and the wreckage underfoot trembled and made a snapping sound due to the vibration.
A black and thick body came out of nowhere and squeezed into this narrow tunnel.
The uneven walls on both sides were forcibly pushed aside by its presence.
Debris continued to fall off, falling towards Jutu like a landslide.
And this ferocious beast did not stop because of the pressure of the wall. It stood up with a monster-like body and smashed away everything in front of it and roared in, as if it could crush everything in front of it.
"Forget it, just think of it as exercise."
Xuanhao looked at Jutu, who was roaring towards him, with a faint smile on his face.
Seeing that Jutu was about to hit him, he did not choose to run away.
If nothing else happens, there is no exit here. Even if he keeps running away, it will be meaningless. Jutu will always catch up.
And he had no reason to escape.
Neither the God of Death nor the Quincy nor the Hollow can do anything against Jutu, but he doesn't seem to belong to any of these categories. He is a human... well, it seems that the human soul will die if it is hit by Jutu.
born.
But unlike ordinary human souls, his soul is protected by the power of two supreme laws, and these two powers of law that protect him are undoubtedly above the rules of this world.
Whether it is destruction or creation, they are the supreme laws. There is no reason why the soul wrapped in these two forces should be smashed by the worm-like thing in front of him, even if he only has a partial understanding of these two forces.
Xuan Hao stood expressionlessly in the middle of the track, quietly waiting for it to hit him.
Just as the best way to exercise the physical body is to 'strike', what he wants to do now is 'exercise' based on the same principle.
Before that, when he smashed the Great Void with one punch, he had already confirmed that his soul was protected by two forces of law and therefore extremely 'hard'. Theoretically speaking, he relied on his hard soul, even in the state of a spirit child.
You can fight as recklessly as if you were a human being.
It's a pity that these two forces only passively protect his soul. They are as uncontrollable as the stress response when being impacted. Of course, there is no problem with passive defense, but it is not up to him to attack. So in the soul state
He has never been able to exert his full power as if he had a physical body.
What he has to do now is to learn to control these two forces.
The method is actually very simple. When Jutu collides, the two forces will definitely respond.
Just like when he shattered the Great Void with one punch, when his soul was impacted, he could vaguely feel the 'fluctuations' of those two forces.
What he has to do is to carefully feel such 'fluctuations' to understand how these two forces operate, and try to control them. This is the so-called 'exercise'.
Youhabach would never have dreamed that the trap he set would be used by Xuan Hao like this.
boom--
A violent collision sounded.
The entire broken world seemed to be on the road to destruction and began to tremble violently.
To be precise, Jutu was trembling.
It is struggling, struggling desperately.
But it seems it's too late.
When it comes into contact with the man in front of it and prepares to erase him from this space like 'trash', it's already too late.
The inexplicable powerful force instantly came back to it, and in just an instant, its body began to irreversibly collapse and gradually move towards destruction.
After the roar, the Jutu that originally filled the entire 'orbit' had disappeared without a trace, not even the dust was left behind. Only Xuan Hao's figure was left standing at the same place without moving at all.
"Is this the end?"
Xuan Hao looked at the empty track in front of him in surprise, with a confused look on his face.
Before he had time to feel what happened, the Jutu was destroyed in an instant. It was so incompetent. Hey, at least hold on a little longer!
"Oh, it seems that things are not as simple as I thought..."
He muttered to himself somewhat distressedly.
I originally thought that as long as he could control how to use these two powers, it would be easy to leave here.
After all, whether it is the power of destruction or creation, it should be very simple to open a 'door' in this broken world. It doesn't matter if you have spiritual pressure or not.
But in practice, we find that there is some gap between imagination and reality.
This penis is not strong at all. It looks big, black and long, but in less than a second, it has collapsed before it even started to feel good. That's it!?
"Sigh, I don't know when this thing will be refreshed next?"
Xuanhao sat there helplessly and waited.
If he remembered correctly, the so-called 'Border' is a place that cuts off time and space, and separates the present world, Soul Society and Hueco Mundo.
In other words, neither time nor space here has anything to do with other worlds.
According to theory, his time to practice here is simply wasted. Even if he spends several years here, it may only be a day or two outside, so he is not panic at all now.
"Speaking of which, thank you very much, Yhwach."
······
"yawn--"
"Damn, what the hell is going on?"
Yhwach dragged his seriously injured body back to a certain stronghold of the Knights of the Star Cross. As he was walking, he suddenly yawned, causing him to almost fall to the ground as he was already walking unsteadily.
"Your Majesty! What's wrong with you..."
The men under his command looked at Yhwach's embarrassed appearance and asked with concern, but when he finished speaking, a terrifying spiritual pressure suddenly enveloped him.
He saw Yhwach's cold gaze as he turned his head, and instantly understood that he seemed to have seen something he shouldn't have seen.
The king in front of them is their 'all-knowing and all-powerful' king. Everything they have is given by him, but now I see this appearance of His Majesty.
"It's dead, it's dead..."
At this moment, this person only has this thought in his mind.
Everyone knows the king's cruelty and violence, and for the king, everything is just a pawn to achieve his goal.
Sure enough, Yhwach stared at this man expressionlessly and raised his finger.
But soon the spiritual pressure condensed on his fingertips suddenly dissipated.
"Forget it..."
Yhwach passed this man while holding on to the wall, his rickety body looking unusually lonely.
"It consumes too much energy. Cleaning up such garbage is simply a waste of energy, but..."
It seemed like he remembered something again.
He slowly turned his head again and stared at the person in front of him with a gloomy look.
"It's better to exchange for the power I gave you."
"Your Majesty, forgive me...ah——"
"ah----"
The screams one after another echoed throughout the stronghold. The next moment, the entire building became eerily silent, with only the solid footsteps of Yhwach left.
Soul recycling and sanctification.
This is one of Yhwach's most powerful abilities. He can use this ability to absorb the power of Quincy members he deems unnecessary and return it to himself. He can also use this ability to make dead Quincies
Members are resurrected.
In Yhwach's view, the Quincy was originally created by him. Now that he is injured, he needs some people to contribute their strength to help him recover. This is their honor.
"What an unexpected development..."
As Yhwach walked in the deserted and silent place, he thought with some distress.
Xuan Hao's appearance was completely unexpected for him.
He originally thought that the God of Death was the biggest obstacle to him achieving his goal, and his strongest enemy should be Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni, whom he was a little unsure about whether he could win. However, he didn't expect that before he even had a fight with Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni, he
Suddenly a more difficult human appeared.
Fortunately, that human being was sealed in the world by him, so he should not pose a threat for the time being.
Yes, although Yhwach's plan and hope was that the man would be crushed into pieces and disappear forever, in fact, even he, who had always been conceited, did not dare to easily conclude that the man was dead at this moment.
"Just in case, we must think of ways to restrain him... and the progress of dealing with the God of Death has to be accelerated. It is not a wise move to face two powerful enemies at the same time..."
······
"Is that so, have you met Yhwach..."
In Soul Society, in the dormitory of Team 1, Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni sat on the bed and pondered.
In order to find out who the powerful spiritual pressure that had flashed on the battlefield belonged to, he called Shiba Jinbei and Kuchiki Mari, who were at the scene, into his room to understand the situation.
Everything went very smoothly during this operation. With Captain Unohana of the 11th Squadron present, the several strongholds they attacked could be said to have no power to fight back.
But at the end of the battle, Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni, who was sitting at the boundary crossing gate, suddenly felt an unusually powerful flash of spiritual pressure.
When he arrived at the scene, he saw the embarrassed figures of the two men.
"Yes, at first we were trapped in the territory of Yhwach and helpless..." Shiba Jinbei described the scene at that time.
"But but! After the vice-captain arrived, the guy was beaten to the point of retreat, and finally had to close his territory and run for his life." Mari Kuchiki answered excitedly, his eyes full of yearning.
"What about the Xuanhao people?" Yamamoto Genryu Sai Shigekuni asked.
"this……"
When this matter was brought up, Shiba Jinbei and Kuchiki Mari fell silent at the same time.
