A life as a god of death starting from Hueco Mundo
Chapter 290 The Final Battle Begins
The inner palace of King Ling is the absolute core area of King Ling’s Palace.
Several large Zero-Ban Depots were built around it, and the central area of the Soul-Oh Omote-Sando also points to here.
And if we look at it from a macro perspective, this is the core area of the Three Realms.
Because this is where the wedge is.
It is precisely because of the existence of this place that the Three Realms are in a state of balance and exist. If this place does not exist and the wedge is destroyed, the entire Three Realms will immediately fall apart and then go to destruction. In the end, there may be nothing left, or it may return to the chaotic world where the boundary between life and death is blurred.
Another possibility is that hell will replace the current three realms.
In short, because of the uncertainty of the future, Xia Mu doesn’t dare to take the risk.
Even though the Three Realms today have many shortcomings and flaws, it has lasted for millions of years after all. He feels that it is quite good to live in such a world. If possible, he would very much like to protect the Three Realms today.
Therefore, stopping Youhabach is inevitable!
After defeating Haschwald, Natsuki continued to move forward with Yoruichi, Urahara Kisuke and Ishida Uryu, and soon arrived at the gate of the main hall of the Soul King Palace.
The door was not closed.
Looking inside through the open door, one can see a throne at the end of the magnificent hall, and on the throne sits an extremely dark figure.
Even though the distance was extremely far, just one glance at it gave rise to an indescribable fear.
It’s as if countless eyes are staring at you in the void.
“Yhwach!”
Urahara Kisuke spoke, his expression serious.
Upon hearing this, Yoruichi and Ishida Uryuu also felt a chill in their hearts and became alert.
Xia Mu looked at Youhabach and said in a deep voice: “He devoured the Soul King. Because he has not yet fully mastered that power and has not yet destroyed the Soul King Palace, the previous arrangements of the Zero Squad have played a role, allowing him to temporarily maintain the stability of the three realms in a wedge state.”
“But as long as he is given enough time, when he fully masters this power, he will eventually get rid of his identity as a wedge. At that time, the three realms will be destroyed.”
With just a few words, he revealed Yhwach’s current state.
The layout of the Spirit King’s Palace is extremely exquisite.
Several Zero-Ban Li Palaces used rules as chains to block the main hall of the Soul King Palace. The Soul King was inside, and even though he possessed extremely powerful strength, he had to be extracted by several Zero-Ban Li Palaces as a source of power to maintain the existence of the Three Realms. This was also the reason why the Three Realms were not directly destroyed after Yhwach devoured the Soul King.
Because Yhwach was right inside the cage where the Soul King once was.
But Yhwach is not the Soul King after all.
He can move freely and use his strength independently.
You know, in order to completely control the Spirit King, the five great nobles not only dismembered the Spirit King, but also sealed him in an amber-like crystal. Although his will still wanders in the Three Realms, he is essentially unable to use his own power on his own.
Possessing the terrifying power of the Spirit King and being able to act independently without any restrictions, it is truly terrifying.
More importantly, Yhwach hates the God of Death and appears to destroy the world of the God of Death.
After he has completely mastered his own power, it will be inevitable for him to destroy the Palace of the Spirit King and bring about the extinction of the three realms today.
As for the destruction of the three realms, how many people will die?
Yhwach doesn’t care. He doesn’t even care about the lives of his own people and subordinates, so it’s natural that he wouldn’t care about the lives of ordinary people. If he cared, he wouldn’t have started wars so many times.
Yhwach is an extremely selfish guy. It can be said that he is the bad root of the Soul King. He is the result of the negative emotions of the world. He only cares about himself. He was born to plunder.
After a few words, Xia Mu took the lead and stepped into the main hall of the Spirit King Palace.
As he stepped in, an extremely powerful repulsive force erupted from within the hall, trying to drive out the people who had trespassed into the restricted area.
Natsuki still maintains the state of Bankai.
Although he was very confident in himself, considering the fact in the original work that Ichigo’s Zanpakutō was destroyed by Yhwach before he used his Bankai, he decided to use his Bankai first, putting himself in peak condition without revealing any flaws, which would naturally give no chance to the enemy.
An invisible force flowed out from Xia Mu’s body, and this terrifying repulsive force disappeared in an instant.
He continued to move forward. His steps were not fast at first, but as he took subsequent steps, his speed became faster and faster.
The next moment, he crossed the space and appeared in front of Youhabach.
At this moment, Yhwach looked extremely strange.
He sat on a throne that was condensed using the power of lepton gathering. His entire body was pitch black, as if it was covered with asphalt. It was extremely strange. If you looked closely, you would find that there were tiny cracks in the darkness covering his body.
These are all eyes.
When Youhabach opens his eyes, his strength will be restored to its peak.
This is how he defeated Hyoshubu Ichibei in the battle of Soul King Palace.
And the same is true now.
It is more like a special ritual than opening your eyes.
The ritual begins with him closing his eyes and falling into a deep sleep.
And when it wakes up and opens its eyes, that is the moment when its power reaches its peak.
Xia Mu looked at Youhabach, and his eyes suddenly became fixed.
The next moment, he raised the Zanpakutō in his hand.
A terrifying force burst out and disappeared in an instant.
At the same time, a sharp edge appeared between the blades of Xia Mu’s Zanpakuto, which was like glass.
He focused his destructive power on the blade.
Cut it out with one knife.
It is considered the place with the most stable time and space among the Three Realms. In the core area of the Three Realms, an extremely small crack appeared in the space.
This means that even here, no one can withstand Xia Mu’s terrifying attack.
The space-destroying slash landed on Yhwach’s body.
In an instant, cracks appeared on Youhabach’s body wrapped in darkness, and it was about to be cut in half.
Just when he was about to fall.
The eyes that were originally closed on Youhabach’s body suddenly opened and closed.
In an instant, countless eyes opened at the same time.
The extremely pale eyes stared at Xia Mu.
Time, space, soul, destiny, everything seemed to be locked up by this force.
Xia Mu’s slashing attack was blocked by another force.
Countless eyes fell on Xia Mu’s body. If an ordinary person was stared at by these strange eyes, he would definitely be terrified, but Xia Mu did not. On the contrary, another force burst out, as if a hand holding a pen eraser appeared out of thin air, and all the open eyes were wiped and covered up.
But in the end, they were not wiped away.
Instead, it slowly closed.
After these strange eyes closed, the darkness shrouding Youhabach’s body began to converge and started to move into Youhabach’s body. Youhabach’s appearance also completely returned to normal during this process.
After his appearance returned to normal, he looked at Xia Mu with his normal eyes. There was a hint of complexity in his words, and he finally spoke.
The first sentence he said after he opened his mouth was.
“do you know?”
“Many people will die because of you!”
If you don’t know Youhabach’s background, just listening to his words, you would think he is a kind-hearted person. But precisely because you know what kind of person he is, such words coming out of his mouth seem particularly ironic.
“I only know that if you continue to live, this world will be destroyed. By then, it won’t be as simple as just a lot of people dying.”
Natsuki looked at Youhabach and responded to Youhabach.
“Sure enough, you don’t know anything!”
Yhwach sighed deeply.
Then he explained to Xia Mu: “When I close my eyes, if I don’t wait until dawn and wake up early, all the Quincies in this world will die.”
“And now, because of you, my sleep is interrupted, and this is about to happen.”
As he said that, he looked at Ishida Uryu on the other side.
“Ishida Uryuu, your father and grandfather will die because of this, so hate him. They all died because of the person in front of you. This guy named Xia Mu is your enemy.”
After hearing what Yhwach said, Ishida Uryu’s expression changed.
All we can say is that Yeahhabach is still the same Yeahhabach, and there is no mercy in his dictionary.
The only thing that Ishida Uryuu didn’t expect was that letting Yhwabach wake up early would have such consequences.
It was also after Youhabach finished speaking that Ishida Uryuu felt a terrifying pulling force coming. This pulling force was very similar to the holiness he had suffered before, but it was even more terrifying. Ishida Uryuu immediately used a completely opposite force to avoid this terrifying pulling force.
If he could still circumvent it with the help of the power of the holy text, what about his father and grandfather?
If Youhabach did not lie, the scale of Youhabach’s holiness at this moment would be so large that it would sweep the entire world. It would no longer target the Quincies in Soul Society, but all Quincies would be affected.
Xia Mu did not answer Youhabach’s words, but just burst out with his own power again. However, this power did not go towards Youhabach in front of him, but with Xia Mu as the center, it spread in all directions in an instant, and in a short time, it covered the Soul King Palace.
Fortunately, the area where the Spirit King Palace is located is not large, so Xia Mu was able to completely cover it in a very short time.
As for limiting the scope to the main hall of the Spirit King Palace.
Although the pressure on Xia Mu might be less, it is unnecessary.
Because the battlefield cannot be confined to this small area, so he doesn’t mind enlarging the battlefield a little.
Let’s use the Spirit King Palace as the place for the final decisive battle.
If the Soul King Palace falls from the sky, it means that they are completely defeated and cannot stop Yhwach.
On the contrary, Yhwach was defeated in the Soul King’s Palace, and they won the final victory.
As for bringing the war to the land of Soul Society as in the original work, there is absolutely no need for that.
Now, in order to fight the final battle with Yhwach, all living fighting forces have come to the Soul King Palace.
If they can’t defeat Yhwach, who else can they rely on?
Relying on those old, weak and sick people in Soul Society, relying on so-called miracles?
It was also because Natsuki limited the coverage of Bankai to the Soul King Palace. The powerful force blocked the soul and blocked the influence of Yhwach’s Separation, making it impossible for him to seize the souls and power of the Quincies outside the Soul King Palace.
Although the Stern Cross Knights have been completely wiped out so far.
However, there are still some Quincies in this world, although their number may not be large. However, when the souls of these people are plundered by Youhabach, Youhabach’s strength may be further enhanced. Even if it is only a little bit, it can still create variables and affect the final outcome of this duel.
Another place in the Spirit King Palace.
The battle between Ichigo and Gerard came to an end.
At this moment, a change occurred.
A force quickly flew out from Gerard’s body and turned into an illusory figure.
“This is?”
Ichigo and Hitsugaya Toushirou were both a little surprised.
“It’s his soul!”
Kurosaki Isshin spoke in a deep voice, revealing the truth about this thing.
Soon, they saw Gerard’s soul shrinking rapidly and flying towards somewhere.
Kurosaki Isshin immediately thought of one thing, “Did he activate that ability again?”
As he spoke, he took out the “Soul-Destroying Gun” developed by Urahara Kisuke and fired it, trying to destroy Gerard’s soul, but failed.
This was because the speed of the force that plundered Gerard’s soul was so fast that it exceeded the flying speed of Ichigo Kurosaki’s bullet.
“What ability?”
Ichigo only saw his father draw his gun and shoot, and heard his father’s words.
“Holy!”
Kurosaki Isshin revealed the ability that Yhwach activated.
Ichigo certainly knew what holiness was.
On that day, in order to forge a real Zanpakuto, he used the Super Kaimon of Squad Zero to return to the real world, and learned a lot of past events from his parents.
Among them was the event of Yhwach’s sanctification.
Ishida’s mother died because of Sainthood, and his own mother also lost her power because of Sainthood and almost died at the hands of a Hollow.
It can be said that Youhabach is the root of all troubles.
“Yhuhabach once again activated the Holy Separation at this time. Could it be that someone has already fought with him?”
After understanding why Gerard’s soul left his body, Ichigo and others thought of another question.
Hearing this, Kurosaki Isshin looked serious, “It seems we have to speed up as well.”
“We can’t let our teammates face Yhwach alone!”
Because Yhwach is so powerful, we must go and support our companions as soon as possible. (End of this chapter)
