Chapter 321

Kenpachi Zaraki suddenly said, "It seems that everyone else has started to move, but it has nothing to do with me. I will stay here and will not run away. Just be brave and fight me."

Hearing this, Koi Hai Xi Diao seemed to have figured it out and took the initiative to attack. He was right. From the beginning, he was saving his strength to ensure that they could delay Kenpachi Zaraki for a longer time.

At this time, Ling Bai had already reached the depths of the cave. There was a large open space here. There was a green triangular barrier in the middle of the open space. An elderly man was imprisoned inside, sitting cross-legged on the ground. There were faint red flames around him. No matter from which angle you look at it, this is the soul-slaying sword of the former captain, Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, Ryujin Jakka.

This surprised him even more. He had clearly made Ryujin Jakka into wine and turned it into his own power, and then improved it. How did this physical existence appear? Could it be that Muramasa's ability could be awakened without the soul-slaying sword?

He didn't think too much. According to Muramasa, Ryujin Jakka didn't listen to his call, so he was sealed up. Ling Bai just sneered. Old man Yamamoto had passed away, and he was still using his soul-slashing sword to destroy him. It was a bit against the will of heaven. He swung the blade, and black flames whistled out, instantly covering the emerald green barrier.

What he didn't notice was that at the moment of his attack, Muramasa sneered, and cracks appeared in the barrier, and it suddenly shattered. At this time, Yoruichi and Kyoraku Shunsui rushed here at the same time. They saw the scene in front of them and understood that Muramasa's real purpose was to lead Ling Bai here and use the fire of hell to destroy the barrier set by Ryujin Jakka himself.

Ling Bai suddenly realized that they all had a huge misunderstanding. This was not a barrier set by Muramasa at all, but a barrier set by Ryujin Jakka himself to protect himself.

"As expected of a captain-level Shinigami, you have a strong ability to understand."

Muramasa sneered: "You are right. My purpose is to awaken the memory of Ryujin Jakka, so I must invade his spiritual world. But this old guy seems to have known my existence for a long time and set up a barrier around me to prevent me from invading his inner world at the cost of losing self-awareness."

They also understood that Muramasa let the Shinigami see the materialization of the Soul Slashing Sword, and then invaded the Jingling Court many times to cause chaos, all to buy time for himself, to study countermeasures to destroy the Ryujin Jakka barrier, so that all the Shinigami thought that he was creating the illusion of a rebellion of the Soul Slashing Sword and believed it. When he saw Ling Bai's ability, he thought that his ability could destroy the barrier.

His words immediately caused dissatisfaction among other Soul Slashing Swords. Hua Tian asked first: "What's going on? You asked us to delay them, just for yourself?"

"That's it, is there a problem?" Muramasa said lightly.

"Of course there is a problem." Hua Tian said, "Now that everything has been revealed, we will no longer obey you.".

Chapter 255: Dark History

"Sorry, I have to leave first. I don't have time to chat with you here."

Since he was betrayed, Hua Tian Kuang Gu naturally couldn't let him leave easily. As he flashed over, a red flame ignited around Muramasa. This was the ability of Ryujin Jakka. The barrier was broken, and Muramasa naturally invaded Ryujin Jakka's heart to control him. The flames rose from the ground. Even if you were dozens of meters away, you could feel the burning of the flames. The skin was burned and the whole cave was reflected in red.

It was like an underground volcano erupting, breaking through the top of the cave and going straight up to the sky. The whole forest turned into a sea of ​​fire, just like an atomic bomb exploded in the depths of the forest. The flames quickly spread to the surroundings. Hua Tian Kuang Gu was almost at the center of the explosion. He was instantly swallowed by the flames. His body was gone, leaving only a broken blade that smashed against the wall.

Ryujin Jakka has disappeared for many years, but his power should not be underestimated. As the oldest and most powerful soul-slashing sword of the fire system, it is not comparable to the power of other soul-slashing swords.

"Goodbye, all the death gods, you are helpless against me."

Throwing down these words, Muramasa disappeared in the cave, or more precisely, disappeared from the Soul Society. Through the previous battle, Ling Bai learned that Muramasa was a soul-slashing sword with the ability of a hookless tapeworm, which could invade the interior of the opponent's soul-slashing sword and manipulate the special heterogeneous bodies of others at any time and anywhere. Stopping his actions is the current priority.

The raging fire enveloped the entire cave, and the fire snakes were still running around wantonly. It seemed that Muramasa wanted to trap them here. His destination was the present-day heavy spiritual land, Karakura Town, where the thing he was looking for was lurking. Yoruichi used the instant opening to make a gap in the ground. There was water flowing in the cave, so there must be a way out. They were about to go down, and two fireballs suddenly jumped out from below, and the broken stones immediately blocked the gap.

Yoruichi still didn't give up. She retreated back to the previous cave, followed the direction of the smoke and ash, and found Huimao and Feimei who had been freed from their restraints. They were the ones who were making trouble just now.

"It seems that I can't defeat other people's soul-slaying swords. I just held back. However, you escaped really fast."

Faced with Yoruichi's ridicule, Feimei certainly would not accept it. She gritted her teeth, turned her head and said, "Don't be too proud. Are you underestimating our strength?"

Since Yoruichi had already used the instant opening, the clothes on the back naturally exploded. Huimao also took this opportunity to say, "Every aunt has such a strong sense of self-awareness. Even if you dress like this, I don't think you are sexy."

Ye Yi smiled and said, "Little girls like you will never understand the charm of mature women."

The order they received just now was to contain the death god who came here. Now that Muramasa has left, what they want to do is naturally another matter. From now on, it is a real life-and-death battle.

At this time, deep in the cave, Ling Bai and his men still have not escaped from the sea of ​​fire. No matter what kind of broken way they use, they can't offset the flames. Ling Bai's hellfire can't be ignited. He originally transformed it through the flame of Ryujin Jakka. If he hits it, it will not only fail to extinguish the fire, but will make it more intense.

In fact, they all understand that as long as they spend time, they can completely make Ryujin Jakka surrender. However, now they can't take it slowly. If they don't stop Muramasa quickly, the seal will be unlocked. After all, Kyoraku Shunsui is the captain with the longest seniority. After Unohana Retsu and Ukitake Jushiro died one after another, his position is irreplaceable.

After talking with Junzheng, thinking about the information he had read in the Seireitei Academy, and the abnormal behavior of Byakuya Kuchiki, he understood that Muramasa's real purpose was Hibiki. He wanted to revive his master, Hibiki. Muramasa invaded other people's spiritual worlds and controlled the Soul Zanken at will.

Many years ago, Muramasa's master Hibiki suddenly rebelled against Seireitei. The Soul Zanken controlled by Muramasa not only failed to provide the power of the god of death, but also attacked the holder one after another, causing the Soul Society to fall into great chaos. At that time, the god of death paid a great sacrifice and spent a lot of time to seal Hibiki. The place where the seal was located was Karakura Town.

Not only Lingbai, but even Yoruichi didn't know about this. When Muramasa first appeared, he clearly said that he killed his own master. This kind of thing has never been heard of before, and it is also a dark history that has not been recorded in the information. As long as he liberates Hibiki and the two join forces, Karakura Town will face a devastating crisis.

At this time, Muramasa has come to the human world, and with him came Byakuya Kuchiki and Senbonzakura. Their appearance will inevitably attract most of the Hollows. Senbonzakura took the initiative to step forward and block the Hollows that appeared in Karakura Town.

What Muramasa didn't understand now was what Byakuya Kuchiki was thinking. When he came to Karakura Town, he left his sight. However, he had no time to think about it. His body was gradually overdrawn and he coughed up blood.

Chapter 256: Attributes of Mutual Rejection

Muramasa landed in the depths of the forest in Karakura Town. In front of him was the lake. Although the scenery was beautiful, few people came here usually. The tree trunks beside were all Hell Butterflies that ordinary people could not see. Blood flowed from his eyes. He was only one step away from success. He just raised his feet and was about to walk to the lake. He suddenly turned back and shouted, "Who is it?"

Inoue Orihime walked out from behind the tree and asked cautiously, "Who are you? Why are you here?"

Muramasa subconsciously raised his vigilance. Those who could see him were definitely not ordinary people. He raised his hand, and the purple light turned into a soul-slaying sword in his hand. He chopped it over without hesitation. He had already arrived here and would never allow anyone to stop him. Inoue Orihime quickly raised the Three Days Shield. With a bang, the blade chopped on the pale yellow shield without a crack.

"What?"

"This is our..."

Before Inoue Orihime finished her words, Muramasa appeared behind him. She felt dizzy, as if a gust of wind was blowing from behind her head. Just when she couldn't hold on any longer and was about to fall, the force suddenly disappeared and she turned her head. Muramasa covered his head, as if he was in great pain.

Looking at the towering trees on the lake in the distance, he didn't dare to raise his hands. His consciousness gradually became unconscious and he fell down. After an unknown period of time, he woke up and saw that he was lying in a pale yellow protective cover. He heard the woman's voice, raised his head, and saw the woman he met before he fainted, who seemed to be treating him.

"Don't move, it will be fine soon."

"This kind of power..." Muramasa murmured, "Who are you?".

"I am..."

Inoue Orihime didn't know how to explain. If she said her name, the other party didn't know either. She had heard Urahara Kisuke say that a suspicious person came to the world, so she came to see. Muramasa already understood. He slowly said: "Are you Ling Bai's companion? Why did you save me?"

"Why?" Inoue Orihime said as a matter of course: "I can't just abandon the injured."

"I am Ling Bai's enemy." Muramasa said.

Inoue Orihime was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether it was right or wrong to do so. She could only force a smile and said: "That's true, I can't just ignore it, and your expression just now looked very painful."

For some reason, Muramasa's pupils suddenly contracted, as if he remembered something he couldn't accept. Black spiritual pressure ignited on his body, and he slowly sat up. Inoue Orihime also opened her eyes wide. The spiritual pressure was like a hollow, giving her an ominous feeling. Muramasa suddenly disappeared from the spot. At the moment he disappeared, more than a dozen light blue spiritual arrows were inserted into the place where he had just sat.

Inoue Orihime turned around and saw Ishida Uryu and Chatotora rushing over. Due to the disappearance of Yhwach, the power that Ishida Uryu had previously been given disappeared. Facing an enemy of unknown power, this is the only way to fight.

"Are you the guest from Soul Society?"

In Soul Society at this time, they still didn't break out of the flames. Despite all their attempts, they still couldn't counteract the flames. In mid-air, Ling Bai ignited black flames, trying to cover himself and break through from above, but Liu Feng When the flame of Blade Fire touched the black flame, it burned more and more fiercely. At this time, a dragon's roar sounded in the air.

The ice dragon fell straight down and broke through the flames. Immediately afterwards, Hitsugaya Toshiro and Hyōrinmaru jumped into the cave. Seeing their arrival, hope was rekindled. Although Ryukenwaka is said to be the strongest in the fire system, Hyōrinmaru Maru is also known as the strongest soul-cutting sword in the ice and snow system. These attributes are incompatible, which is just right for Hitsugaya Toshiro.

They unfolded their swastika at the same time, and dug into a huge ice dragon that flew into the air. The tongues of fire quickly wrapped around him. He let out a dragon roar, and the flames wrapped around his body were frozen into ice and turned into fragments. Falling, the whole cave was like a hailstorm, and then he breathed out ice breath, like a fire extinguisher, suppressing it around the flames.

Hitsugaya Toshiro used the dragon to break up and opened an icy passage in the middle of the flames. Ling Bai quickly rushed from the passage to the world-transmitting gate of the Seireitei and rushed to the real world. The others stayed here to surrender the Ryuken. If fire.

Zaraki Kenpachi and Yoruichi also defeated their opponents. With the strength of the two of them, the battle should have ended long ago. Zaraki Kenpachi just wanted to enjoy the fun of the battle, so he fought for a while longer. Yoruichi wanted to Haimao and Feimei were made aware of Muramasa's betrayal, and tried to use preaching to get them to return to the scabbard, but it didn't work.

They stood in the cave, looking at the blazing fire above their heads. Hyōrinmaru suddenly said: "The opponent is the strongest soul-zanting sword of the heat type. When our opponent is suitable, I will devote all my strength."

Seeing that Hitsugaya Toshiro didn't speak for a long time, Hyōrinmaru asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

"Why are you so cautious?" Hitsugaya Toshiro said slowly: "Just do it as usual."

Chapter 257: Invasion of Consciousness

"We have four captain-level figures here. If we fight as usual, there is no chance of winning."

He was right. Although swastika is a requirement for captainship, captains like them who have been sitting for hundreds or even thousands of years have experienced countless fights. Even without a soul-cutting sword, they can still dominate the world. Partially above death.

Ishida Uryu did not relax his vigilance. After confirming that Inoue Orihime was not injured, he pointed his spiritual bow at Muramasa and said slowly: "Your spiritual pressure is not a Shinigami, nor is it an Arrancar. Who are you?"

Muramasa didn't know them either. At the time of Xianghe, Ishida Uryū had not yet been born, and he had never heard of the Quincy. All he could confirm at the moment was that they were his enemies. He struck preemptively and charged at them with his sword. At the same time that Ishida Uryū dodged to avoid it, Sadatō Taihu's fist struck, and a light blue spiritual pressure shock wave exploded on the lake.

Realizing that the other party was not an opponent who deliberately eliminated them easily, and there was not much time left now, it was impossible to struggle with them in this place. He raised his hand, and a strange storm swept over. Although the wind was not strong, However, they could feel that the entire space seemed to be distorted, and there were many shadows of Muramasa appearing around them.

Just when Uryū Ishida couldn't find him, Muramasa appeared behind him. Taitora Sadatori jumped into the air and called out Ishida's name. After all, they had been fighting together for so many years. Uryū Ishida quickly avoided it. Immediately afterwards, a huge spiritual pressure shock wave blasted over, directly crushing this distortion.

Muramasa has never seen this kind of power. It is not a god of death, nor a soul-cutting sword, nor is it possible for humans to have this kind of power. When he was thinking about this, they were already attacking from both sides.

Muramasa had no choice but to fly into the air, but he fell into Ishida Uryū's hands. Countless spiritual arrows attacked like a violent storm. Just before they fell on Muramasa, a pink cherry blossom waterfall emerged from the water. Surge up to block the attack of spiritual pressure.

"What?"

"That's Kuchiki Byakuya's Senbonzakura...".

Senbonzakura landed in front of Muramasa, turned around and said, "Muramasa, leave this to me."

Ishida Uryū didn't allow him to think about what was going on. Senbonzakura waved his blade, and Sakura pounced towards him. He could only avoid it. No one was cooperating with him to fight. Chadata Taitora was easily hit by Muramasa's move, and the surrounding space gradually distortion.

"Now is not the time to worry about other people."

Not only was the space distorted, but everything around him started to change. Gradually, he seemed to fall into a drowsy state. Unknowingly, as if falling into a dream, he saw everything around him change. He was walking on a familiar street. Next to it were white, very classical buildings. He suddenly remembered that this was his hometown of India when he was a child.

A strong old man appeared in front of him, that was his deceased grandfather. He was stunned, not knowing how to express his feelings at this time. Suddenly, his grandfather punched him in the stomach, as if he was being beaten. As if he was hit by steel, he spat out blood and fell down. The moment he lost consciousness, he saw that the grandfather in front of him had been replaced by Muramasa.

"It's really not the God of Death. It's really boring."

Muramasa had no interest in him and turned to leave, but Taihu Chadat grabbed his arm from behind. He turned around and said, "Are you not dead yet?"

Chadata Taitora suddenly felt that his neck seemed to be pinched by a pair of hands and he could not breathe. The scene returned to the depths of the forest in Karakura Town. Although a long time passed there, it was only a short time here. In a few seconds, Chadota Taihu fell on his back and suddenly lost all his strength.

Inoue Orihime quickly ran over to save him, but Muramasa said calmly: "It's useless, woman, he can't fight anymore."

Senbonzakura and Ishida Uryu are still worried. Although Ishida Uryu has lost the power of the Holy Words, his strength has also improved after the Quincy invasion, forcing Senbonzakura to use Swastika to neutralize his attack. , Uryū Ishida said directly that such a battle was meaningless. If he continued, he would be defeated by Senbonzakura sooner or later, and he could only retreat to Taihu Sadatora and find another way.

Muramasa raised his hand again, and a strange storm blew. Inoue Orihime knew well that the power of this storm, although it was not a physical attack, could invade the opponent's consciousness. He quickly held up a three-day shield to block Uryū Ishida. Muramasa was also surprised by his attack. This woman, who seemed to have no fighting ability, could actually block his attack.

"Why do you do this?"

Inoue Orihime breathed out and said softly: "You seem to be carrying great sorrow. You had those eyes just now. Why would such a person do such a thing? Who are you?"

Muramasa gritted his teeth and said: "Don't talk like you know everything. Woman, what can you understand? My name is Muramasa, and only my power can change the world."

Chapter 258: Long-cherished wish

At this point, black spiritual pressure rose up in his body again, and it was stronger than before. Ishida Uryu knew the horror of this spiritual pressure, and was about to pull Inoue Orihime back when suddenly, the light blue spiritual pressure The pressure shock wave came over and hit Muramasa, forcing him to stop his strength.

Rukia Kuchiki landed next to them and frowned slightly when she saw Taitora Sadatori's appearance. It seemed that this guy could not only control the consciousness of the Soul Zanthana, but also control humans.

"Kuchiki Rukia, why are you here."

"I'm just here to pursue my brother's spiritual pressure."

Ishida Uryu didn't understand what this meant, and there was no time to explain it now. Kuchiki Rukia could only tell him to be careful. She explained that this man was the embodiment of the soul-cutting sword and the culprit of causing the Seireitei to fall into chaos. .

"Where is Ling Bai?" Ishida Yuryu suddenly asked.

Muramasa said: "I think he is powerless against the calamity fire of Ryūren Wakahu..."

At this point, he spat out blood again, knowing that he had no time to waste. Black spiritual pressure suddenly rose, and the sky turned black. A large number of Hollows emerged from the black shadow and lay beside Muramasa.

"The spiritual pressure just now was indeed empty."

Kuchiki Rukia asked: "Aren't you a Soul-Zantoto? What are you thinking about?"

"I am the true soul-zanting sword." Muramasa murmured: "And it is also a soul-zanting sword with the power to change the world. I am about to be freed from the lonely struggle of the past. I leave this to you. Yes, Senbonzakura.”

Senbonzakura did not hesitate, Sakura Falls rushed over, Ishida Uryu's arrow rain also greeted them, Inoue Orihime took this opportunity to bring Chad to a safe place, but Kuchiki Rukia was blocked by Daxu, and the village Zheng Zheng disappeared from their sight a long time ago. He pushed himself to the edge of the lake, crossed the lake, and walked to the towering tree in the center of Amber.

He attached his hands to the tree trunk and chanted unknown spells. This process seemed to take a long time. At this time, Rukia Kuchiki had solved all the big voids. Orihime Inoue helped Taitora Sadatori and let him sit down against the tree trunk. , and then said: "The man named Muramasa seems to be in some kind of pain. If this continues..."

Kuchiki Rukia pressed him and disappeared, but it was too late. The island in the center of Amber was shattered like a mirror. It was a barrier set up by someone a long time ago. Thick fog floated on the lake. Kuchiki Lucia couldn't see the scene in front of her and didn't dare to approach rashly.

Senbonzakura and Ishida Uryu were still fighting. Ishida Uryu held a spiritual bow in his right hand and a sword in his left hand. Their sword blades kept colliding. After all, the power gap between the two was still too big. After many collisions, Ishida Uryuu was bounced away.

"I really didn't expect that the Quincy can also use a sword. However, there is no chance of winning with an unfamiliar weapon."

Senbonzakura raised the blade. Suddenly, the soul-cutting sword in his hand floated away like cherry blossoms. It was not Hajima or Swastika. It was like power was floating away. Ishida Uryu stood up and gasped: "Soul The cutting is not a sword, but a weapon that relaxes the opponent's spirit barrier so that it can be captured easily."

Countless souls gathered on Ishida Uryu's sword blade. He put the sword on the spiritual bow and shot out, instantly penetrating Senbonzakura's body.

The thick fog on the lake gradually dissipated, and from somewhere, a box like a coffin floated over. Before Muramasa could get excited, Rukia Kuchiki's Blue Fire Pendant hit him. Muramasa turned around, The blade used all the light blue spiritual pressure, and with all his strength, he ducked behind Rukia Kuchiki and grabbed her arm.

"Stay out of the way!"

"What is that? What do you want to do?"

"My master is sleeping in that coffin." Muramasa said slowly: "The strongest god of death, Hibiki, who once tried to destroy Soul Society, resurrected me. Everything I did was for this moment."

It was too late to stop it. Purple lightning sounded on the coffin. In the dazzling blue light, the coffin shattered. A man with a naked upper body and an old, yet inexplicably handsome face walked out of it. He floated in the air. It seemed that his consciousness had not yet awakened.

"You're just in time..."

A familiar voice suddenly sounded in the air. Muramasa's pupils suddenly shrank and he subconsciously dodged. The black flames burned along the lake. Ling Bai landed on the shore. Seeing his appearance, the desperate Rukia Kuchiki rekindled hope. Muramasa frowned and said, "How did you break through the encirclement of Ryujin Jakka?"

"Who knows."

Ling Bai sneered, "But you don't have a chance anymore."

"Really? It seems too late."

Amid Muramasa's laughter, they noticed that blue lightning appeared on Xianghe's body. He opened his eyes and looked sharp. He was sealed for nearly a thousand years. He woke up at this moment to avenge what the Soul Society had done to him.

Chapter 259: Mind

Almost a thousand years ago, when Byakuya Kuchiki was not yet born, Ginrin Kuchiki served as the head of the Kuchiki family and the captain of the Sixth Division. The order of the Seireitei was not completely perfect. The various factions of the Shinigami were still fighting. Xianghe was the son-in-law of the Kuchiki family, that is, Kuchiki Xianghe, and was especially valued by Ginrin Kuchiki.

Every few days, the two camps of the Death God clash. Standing on the hillside, Kuchiki Yinling said slowly: "We are at a disadvantage, and the rebels are becoming more and more rampant. If it were you, what would you do, Xianghe?".

Kuchiki Xianghe said indifferently: "According to the current situation, it seems that there is no room for negotiation. Let me solve the battle."

"Don't be impulsive." Kuchiki Xianghe refused without hesitation: "War is not a matter for one person."
