Chapter 557 The Light of Hell!

Hell?

Ji Xing had guessed halfway through that the characteristics of Rukia that he was unaware of and did not understand could only be related to hell.

At the beginning of the world, hell existed naturally, earlier than the Hollows and earlier than the Soul King. In order to prevent the immortal humans of the ancient times from gradually turning into Hollows, leaving only one Hollow that swallowed the world, the Soul King divided the world into the real world, the Hueco Mundo, and the Soul Society, but he could not control hell.

He could only let the three realms he divided join the cycle of adapting to hell.

I don’t know what kind of standard is used to judge the rules of hell. In short, most people who are extremely evil cannot go to the Soul Society or the Hueco Mundo after death, but will be led to hell to atone for their sins in that harsh environment.

Those who are bound by the chains of hell are called sinners. They will forever sink into the torture of hell, constantly be killed by the guards of hell, and constantly resurrect, endure the suffering of eternity, until their hearts completely give up and turn into sand and wither.

This is basic information that most of the Shinigami know, and there are things from hell everywhere around them, such as the Hell Butterfly that guides the Shinigami through the gate, the Jutsu of the Broken World, and the gate of hell that opens when the soul buries the extremely evil people.

However, the Soul Society also has a strict order that the Shinigami must not spy on hell, let alone enter hell!

Hearing Aizen's answer, Byakuya's expression froze slightly, and Renji blurted out: "The breath of hell? Only the extremely evil people can enter hell? Nonsense, how could Rukia have such a thing?!"

"Only the extremely evil people can enter hell?" Aizen said softly: "No, this is not accurate. You should know that Kuchiki Byakuya, who was born in the four great nobles, and Yono-san must also know that in addition to the extremely evil people, there is another kind of people who will fall into hell after death... Yes, us.

It may take some time for Vice Captain Abarai. When you master Bankai, you should be qualified to go to hell. We also learned it at the Shinō Spiritual Academy, the Soul Burial Ceremony."

Renji stared in surprise.

This term is indeed very familiar.

The Shinō Academy teaches that because the spiritual pressure of captain-level Shinigami is too strong, it is difficult for them to rest in peace after death and it is difficult for them to transform into spirit particles and return to the cycle of Soul Society. Therefore, a soul burial ceremony should be held for them to completely free their souls.

He also experienced it once, 43 years ago, when he was still at the Shinō Academy, the soul burial ceremony of the captain of the 7th Division, Aikawa Rabu, who died in battle!

Could it be that... He subconsciously looked at Byakuya and Jixing, and found that neither of them showed any surprise.

Aizen also continued: "That is not a ceremony to let the soul rest in peace. The spiritual pressure of the Shinigami captains with third-level spiritual power or above is so strong that it cannot be naturally degraded after death. Then they are garbage to the Soul Society. The soul burial ceremony is a ceremony to send all the garbage to hell."

Renji's breathing paused for a moment.

Is this the truth? The captains who fought and sacrificed for the Soul Society, after death, all their souls went to hell? ! And they were sent to hell by their friends to be tortured? ! Captain Luo Wu is, Captain Bai Ya is also after his death, and I may be in the future too...

"There is nothing to shake, Renji."

Bai Ya said in a deep voice: "If there is no restriction on the death god with third-level spiritual power or above, it is enough to make ordinary spirits collapse directly when they see it. Falling into hell after death is the price of this powerful power. It has been like this for millions of years. There is no need to complain.

The Maou Spiritual Academy did not teach the truth about the soul funeral ceremony of ordinary death gods, just because they did not want to cause greater chaos, not for other reasons."

The spiritual power level of the spiritual power and the spiritual power level of the Maou Spiritual Academy are different ways to assess the spiritual pressure and soul density of death gods, covering a wider range.

For ordinary team members who are not chief officers, the spiritual power level is generally around 20th level, and then the spiritual power number will become smaller and smaller as they grow. The vice-captain is 4th to 6th level, and the captain is 3rd level and above.

However, most of the captains of the Soul Society are of the third-class spiritual power. Unohana Retsu and Zaraki Kenpachi can reach the second class. Ji Xing was probably at the upper level of the second class. When he fully stimulated the power of the Soul King's internal organs and entered the "perfect holy body", he might be able to reach the first-class spiritual power level.

And the souls of these people are difficult to decay after death, and they will not re-enter the soul particle 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 goodwill.

Ji Xing only observed the unconscious Rukia in Aizen's hand and said, "Is she from hell?"

"I'm not sure either."

Aizen smiled and shook his head: "We know very little about the situation in hell. I just combined some known information and made reasonable inferences. It needs to be verified.

But there is one thing that makes me very happy, and it is also what I have been verifying today, that is, you, Yono-san, who 'knows' everything, don't seem to know much more about hell than ordinary death gods. As for hell, you 'don't know'."

Who made Kubo only draw an easter egg and the beginning of the Jikui Mingming chapter at the 20th anniversary celebration of the death god, and there was no movement afterwards?

But thinking of that easter egg, Ji Xing thought of more things-it was still the daughter of Rukia, the apprentice death god, and Abarai Meihua, the child who could detect the spiritual pressure of the hell visitors that even the captain-level death gods could not detect!

Is her specialness not an occasional mutation?

But it is 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 Lloyd brothers to escape the control of Yhwach and follow you, and allows those Arrancars to escape the absorption of my Zanpakutō. Yes, it should be, 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 that is just a very superficial application, just letting them 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 can 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 had sent away six of them in the previous battle, so Aizen's gratitude... was it sincere? Ji Xing couldn't help but smile and said: "The impression given by Vice Captain Aizen has 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 just 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 narrated 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 killed countless invaders to defend his country? In terms of the rules of hell and how much they were stained with blood, they were all "extremely evil" people, but they also had light in their hearts.

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 hell should continue to be tortured, but the soul.

And the essence of Rukia is the 'light' that hell could not break down and was returned!

Lucia actually has 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.

me too. Aizen Sosuke, whose plan was ruined by Yono-san and who is pursuing hell, is the me you see in front of you. I am the same person as Aizen who was looking forward to collapse 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."

Dongxian, 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 strange aura quickly floated on Dongxian Yao's body, leaving several people watching helplessly as his spiritual pressure disappeared.

No, it’s hidden by the vapors of hell!

"This guy……"

The shocked Renji and Byakuya were stopped by Ji Xing's hand, so the handle of Tosen 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 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 extremely beautiful!

The ability of the Zanpakutō is a reflection of the soul. It is probably not a coincidence that Rukia has Shirayuki, the most beautiful Zanpakutō sleeve in the Soul Society!

Enveloped by the moonlight, the qi in Dongxian Yao's body was purified and disappeared. Aizen let go of Rukia's hand, but Rukia, who was still unconscious, did not fall, 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 bring with it 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 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's not from Ji Xing. No matter what the circumstances, he would never let down his guard against Ji Xing. This was true a hundred years ago, and it will be even more true a hundred years later.

Yamamoto Shigekuni is entangled with Haschwald, Zaraki Kenpachi can't find the way, Unohana Retsu is unwilling to take action, then who can bring me danger?

"Is that so, that's how it is."

"Hollow Flash!"

Aizen's voice was swallowed up by the roar, and on the side of his head, a black gun handle suddenly appeared from the alien space, firing a powerful blue hollow flash, swallowing his head!

At the same time, Kuchiki Byakuya's Senbonzakura instantly scattered, slashing across the arc and slashing at the bodies of Tosen Kaname and Ichimaru Gin, and Renji hurriedly followed!

The spiritual pressure burst and intertwined, and the sound of weapons colliding also rang. The blue hollow flash suddenly penetrated several cells of the Black Rope Hell, and even lifted a part of the dome. The blazing spiritual pressure was transmitted to the sky above the Soul Society, attracting the attention of people from the outside world!

The captain stared with deep eyes, Urahara Kisuke was stunned and surprised, and Kenpachi, who had been guarding the door for a long time and only cut a few enemies, ran over with excitement and laughter.

The whereabouts of Aizen's body is no longer a question for Soul Society, and behind the waves of dust, Aizen, with a slightly messy hair, looks at the figure opposite.

"I should have thought that after killing Nnoitra and the others, Yono-san, who found that he could not absorb souls, might change his strategy a little. Did he send you to another space to hide his spiritual pressure through the Fullbring? Stark, you betrayed me."

The one who suddenly appeared and attacked Aizen was the first Arrancar, Stark, who had besieged Ji Xing with two Quincy guards!

The first to respond to Aizen was Lilinette with two guns in Stark's hands: "How dare you say betrayal?! We trust you so much, but you, a bastard, deliberately let us die?! We heard everything you said just now!"

Stark then spread his hands: "You heard it, Lord Aizen, Lilinette and I don't 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 a repayment." Ji Xing smiled.

"I see. I respect your choice, Stark." Aizen's tone remained calm. He smiled at Jixing and said, "We can't be careless for even a moment. But Yono-san, the portal to hell I want has been opened. Can you stop us?"

Jixing looked at the dark red door and handed the unconscious Rukia to Byakuya and Renji.

"But I got the key back. Please come in, Vice Captain Aizen. I will help lock it."
