Chapter 501 Seal, deepening thoughts

"The last Crescent Moon Sky Strike, if I use this technique, I will lose all my power as a god of death." Ichigo Kurosaki looked at Aizen and said.

"The so-called last, that's what I mean."

Ichigo Kurosaki also looked at Xia Li. At this moment, he finally felt the fluctuation of Xia Li's spiritual pressure.

However, he was not surprised by this. After all, when he came out of the Slash, he didn't feel Xia Li's spiritual pressure at the moment, and he guessed that the other party had probably reached his strength after using the Moonless when he was in normal state.

Now it seems that perhaps... he still underestimated Xia Li.

Even now, he can only feel the fluctuation of Xia Li's spiritual pressure, but can't sense his specific level.

And this is the embodiment of the difference in strength.

Little did he know that Ichigo Kurosaki was surprised, and Aizen looked at Ichigo Kurosaki now with his eyes wide open.

Because, after completing his evolution after fighting with Ichigo Kurosaki, he finally felt the other party's spiritual pressure before, but now he can't feel anything.

Just like the two-dimensional world cannot interfere with the existence of the three-dimensional world, unless the other party consciously lowers its level to allow it to interfere, the god of death and humans cannot feel the other party's spiritual pressure...

Aizen couldn't help but look at Xia Li, who was looking at Kurosaki Ichigo with interest, and opened his eyes wide.

At this moment, he understood.

Kurosaki Ichigo has evolved to a higher dimension than him!

"How is it possible! How could this happen!" Aizen couldn't accept it at this time. He had planned for hundreds of years to finally break through the realm. How could the other party break through and surpass him in such a short time? !

"How can a mere human surpass me?! This kind of thing..."

Kurosaki Ichigo didn't listen to the other party's roar, but stretched out his hand. In his hand, a sharp sword composed of black aura seemed to condense.

Then, he gently raised his hand and chopped down.

"Wu Yue!"

At the moment when he swung the sword, Kurosaki Ichigo seemed to hear the voice of Zanpakutō bidding farewell to him, but he still swung the sword.

In an instant, endless black aura broke through the earth and tore the sky, and Aizen was directly pierced by this black sword light from the center.

This black sword light lasted for a long time, until Aizen's body fell from the sky, and his wings completely dissipated at this moment, falling straight to the ground.

When the black sword light disappeared, the world was silent.

Only Kurosaki Ichigo standing in the air, and Aizen who fell to the ground and split into two, and Xia Li who was watching this scene from a distance were left.

At this moment, Aizen's body that was split into two suddenly began to attract each other, and was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Can you still recover?"

Kurosaki Ichigo was also shocked, and his body flashed to Aizen's front, wanting to give him the last blow.

But when he fell, the aura of the last Crescent Moon Sky Strike on his body dissipated directly, revealing his original orange short hair.

"Oops, the power of the god of death is slowly disappearing." Kurosaki Ichigo lost too much power in an instant, causing his body to soften. He knelt on the ground, supporting himself with his hands on the ground, gasping for breath.

At this time, Aizen slowly stood up and said to Kurosaki Ichigo with a smile.

"You lost, Kurosaki Ichigo."

Xia Li looked at this scene indifferently, without being surprised, as if he had expected it.

When Kurosaki Ichigo's Moonless form appeared, he actually guessed it.

The last Crescent Moon Sky Strike was indeed very strong, but it did not exceed the limit of the Collapse Jade. It was at the same level as the Collapse Jade, so Kurosaki Ichigo's last blow could destroy the Collapse Jade in Aizen's body.

Therefore, the wings behind Aizen disappeared at this time, because they were formed with the help of the power of the Collapse Jade.

However, the ability that the Collapse Jade has given to Aizen itself will not disappear.

For example, when he broke the limit, his steel skin like a hollow and his fully recovered physique, and that is... the upper limit of himself that has been raised will not disappear.

It's like Aizen's original limit was level 90, but now under the effect of the Houyu, his level cap has reached level 99, and Aizen can continue to become stronger.

Just like now that the Houyu has disappeared, the power of Inoue Orihime and Chad Taisho guided by the Houyu will not disappear, because those are the power hidden in their bodies and belong to themselves, not the power of the Houyu.

It's just that Aizen has indeed become weaker at present, because Aizen could use the power of the Houyu before, but now he can only use his own power.

So the level has temporarily dropped to level 90, but he can still quickly absorb the spiritual pressure to return to the power when he merged with the Houyu.

Of course, since the Houyu has been destroyed, Aizen has lost the possibility of further breaking the upper limit.

Xia Li actually wants to see the result of Aizen's continued evolution, although it probably won't evolve to a too strong level. After all, the status of the Houyu itself is there, and the wishes it can realize naturally cannot exceed its own level.

For example, becoming a spiritual king-level existence, just think about it and you will know that it is impossible.

So Aizen made him feel a little pity, but not completely pity.

Compared to Aizen, what Xia Li felt more sorry about was that Ichigo Kurosaki lost his power as a god of death because of the last Getsuga Sky Strike.

If Ichigo Kurosaki was given more time, although he didn't know whether he could reach the level of Soul King, he probably couldn't.

But at least, Ichigo Kurosaki didn't have the upper limit of the god of death that Aizen had always pursued.

So, as long as he had more time, Ichigo Kurosaki didn't need to use the last Getsuga Sky Strike to defeat Aizen, but unfortunately...

Aizen didn't give Ichigo Kurosaki more time.

"Still not working?" Xia Li sighed as if asking.

He originally wanted to see something from Ichigo Kurosaki, or to find inspiration for a breakthrough from the last Getsuga Sky Strike.

However, what disappointed him was...

Although Wu Yue was powerful, he was not particularly special, and the essence of his power did not exceed this level. It was just the same level of power as his current level, and could not play any guiding role.

As if hearing Xia Li's voice, Aizen showed a hint of excitement.

Look, even Xia Li has said that he has won the final victory...

Just when Aizen was excited and proud, several red spiritual pressure light spikes suddenly appeared on his body, piercing through his body from inside Aizen's body and breaking through to the outside.

"What's going on? Is it the ghost way? When did this thing..." Aizen looked at the light spikes on his body in disbelief.

"It seems that it has finally started."

At this time, a voice sounded, and the figure of Urahara Kisuke appeared beside Aizen and Kurosaki Ichigo.

It turned out that as early as when he appeared in the world, Urahara Kisuke had already hit this seal in Aizen's body with other attacks.

It had not been activated before because Aizen's power was still at its peak before, and even if the seal was activated, it would be useless.

Now after Kurosaki Ichigo weakened Aizen, Aizen no longer had the strength to resist this new way of binding that he had newly developed to deal with Aizen.

When being sealed by the way of binding, Aizen stared at Urahara Kisuke and roared.

"Urahara! Urahara Kisuke! I despise you! If you have such a mind, why don't you take action? Why do you submit to that kind of thing!"

"That kind of thing?" Urahara Kisuke was also stunned, but he quickly reacted and said, "You mean the Soul King. If the Soul King disappears, Soul Society will be torn apart. The Soul King is a wedge. Once the wedge is lost, it will collapse easily. The so-called world is this kind of thing."

However, after hearing what Urahara Kisuke said, Aizen completely disagreed and shouted, "You are completely a loser's theory! The winner will never talk lightly about what kind of existence the world is! Instead, he will emphasize what kind of existence the world should be!"

"But... you have already lost." Xia Li looked at Aizen with pity at this time and said softly.

Aizen was stunned, looking at the seal on his body that gradually wrapped his whole body, and finally realized this.

Then he looked at Xia Li, and at this time he might understand the other party's thoughts.

The other party is different from him and Urahara Kisuke. If he actively wants to change the world and control the world, and is the winner-absolute theory, then Urahara Kisuke is the loser theory.

And Xia Li... it seems that the world has nothing to do with him. He just watches everything happen from the side.

Because, no matter who is at the top, he doesn't care.

Because there is no need. There has never been any suppression above him. Even if the other party accepted the trial of the Central 46th Chamber, it was not because the other party was afraid, but just for the people around him and... he himself wanted to find a breakthrough in the real world, right?

Otherwise, after the punishment, the other party would not have stayed in the Soul Society for so long, but stayed in a place like the real world where spiritual power is thin.

Therefore, the other party seems to always stand outside the rules, not accepting the constraints of any rules of this world, and does whatever he wants.

Even if the high and mighty Soul King is not just a wedge, but a manifestation of real willpower, he will not care about the other party.

And the only things that can make him care in this world are his companions around him and... his own strength.

After understanding this, Aizen suddenly suppressed all his anger, restored his usual smile and said, "Xia Li, I'm really... sorry to make you laugh, as expected, your feeling is correct, I failed."

"Yeah." Xia Li nodded, looking at Aizen with only his head exposed, not knowing what he wanted to say.

"Want to continue to become stronger? Xia Li, although I don't know whether it is right or not, the only existence in front of you now... is the Soul King." Aizen smiled and said.

After saying this, he was completely covered by the seal, and was finally completely sealed in front of the three people.

At this time, Urahara Kisuke couldn't help but look at Xia Li. He knew that the other party was obsessed with becoming stronger, so Aizen's last words might be exactly what Xia Li was thinking.

The same was true for Kurosaki Ichigo. He also looked at Xia Li nervously. No one understood Xia Li's strength better than him.

Because he personally felt Xia Li's shocking spiritual pressure in the state of Wu Yue, which was not at the same level as the captain's spiritual pressure...

"Are you so worried that I will choose to attack the Soul King because of what Aizen said?" Xia Li naturally felt their gazes and couldn't help but laugh.

"Really? Then it seems that we don't have to worry?" Urahara Kisuke also laughed and asked tentatively.

"Who knows?" Xia Li did not give an absolute answer.

Even if Aizen didn't say it, he actually knew this fact. Standing in front of him... was only the Soul King.

So, if he wanted to continue to break through, he could only choose the Soul King path. As for other paths? No one has walked it, and no one knows whether it exists.

After hearing Xia Li's words, Urahara Kisuke's heart sank.

"However, you can rest assured that I am not interested in destroying the three realms, and I will not attack Karakura Town." Xia Li still gave them an answer that was not a positive answer.

"That's great." Kurosaki Ichigo breathed a sigh of relief at this time.

Urahara Kisuke also nodded, but he did not show a happy look. He looked at Xia Li deeply. Sometimes...

It's not that you don't want to do it, it won't happen.

Once the Soul King has an accident, that is, the wedge has an accident, then whether Xia Li wants it or not, the Three Realms will collapse because of the disappearance of the wedge.

The better one may be able to restore the state before the formation of the Three Realms, and if it's worse... maybe the Three Realms will just disappear.

But, he couldn't point this out at this time.

After finishing the crusade against Aizen, if he starts a battle against Xia Li again...there is no hope at all.

Unlike Aizen, Xia Li has actually broken through to that level.

And the only one who may be able to restrain the opponent is Kurosaki Ichigo...

Urahara Kisuke felt the dissipating spiritual pressure on Kurosaki Ichigo, and sighed in his heart.

So, with the current situation of Soul Society and the real world, how can Xia Li be dealt with?

Urahara Kisuke still hoped that Xia Li would not be affected by Aizen's words, otherwise they might face an enemy that is much more terrifying than Aizen.

Xia Li looked at Urahara Kisuke, shook his head, and then walked alone towards Karakura Town. Ulquiorra was still there, and he needed to go and take him back to Hueco Mundo.

As for whether Aizen's words had any effect on Xia Li...

Yes, but it was not entirely his words, because he had set his sights on the Soul King when he tried to break into the Soul King Palace before.

Now, Aizen's words only deepened this idea a little. (End of this chapter)
