Bleach: Secret Intentions

Chapter 18: chant

Views:

When Hidetoshi Tsuruno saw Natsuhiko successfully giving up chanting, he stood stunned on the spot, thinking it was an accident, but then Natsuhiko's finger sent out another shock wave.

Although this shock wave is only one-third of its power, it does not use chanting.

What a genius.

Hidetoshi Tsuruno quickly walked to Xia Yan and asked excitedly: "Xia Yan, did you just give up singing?"

Xia Yan was startled by the sudden appearance of Hidetoshi Tsuruno, nodded his head and said, "Yes, teacher, what's wrong?"

Hidetoshi Tsuruno suppressed his excitement and asked: "Xia Yan, how did you do this?"

"How did you do it?"

Xia Yan recalled the process of giving up singing just now.

He couldn't find a clue at first and didn't know how to give up singing. But then he thought of a question. Since he had to give up singing, what was the role of singing

The role of chanting has three purposes. First, it is a sense of ritual. It sets the ritual through language, uses the ritual to form an introduction, and uses the introduction to inspire power.

The second is the rhythm of chanting. Chanting is not simply reciting, but rhythmic singing. Sound is produced by the vibration of objects, and different rhythms have different amplitudes of vibration, so rhythm is the utilization and increase of energy.

The third is that language affects thinking, just like there is a hypothesis in another time and space called the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis. He believes that all high-level thinking depends on language. In turn, it affects the way people perceive the world.

Knowing this, Xia Yan tried to simplify these three points in other ways.

The first point is the sense of ritual. The rituals of breaking and binding the Tao cannot be canceled. Only rituals can activate spiritual power. Since the ritual cannot be canceled, can it be replaced? In breaking the path and binding the path, gestures are also extremely important. Gestures are also a kind of ritual. I only use gestures to perform the ritual and abolish the chanting. Is this okay

The second point is the rhythm of singing. Rhythm can increase strength, and losing rhythm will reduce strength. This is not crucial, so it can be dispensed with without simplification.

The third point is thinking and perception.

This is crucial. There are alternative methods for the first two points. Even if they are not used, they will only weaken the power.

But if the perception is incorrect, then the Po Dao cannot be used, so Xia Yan tried his best to recall the feeling produced by his mind when chanting, and then imitated it with all his strength, giving the feeling to the spirit son's excited state, and successfully performed the first rush of Po Dao.

The power of the broken path used in this way was reduced by two-thirds, but it did avoid the chant.

However, Xia Yan felt that if he could add gestures, rituals and rhythms, would his power be increased

Can the ritual be completely placed on other objects and increase the power by using objects

Several thoughts flashed in Xia Yan's mind, but before he could think about it, he was interrupted by Hidetoshi Tsuruno.

Xia Yan didn't have the idea of being self-conscious, so he told his thinking process. When talking about the three functions of chanting, Hidetoshi Tsuruno couldn't help but nod every time Xia Yan said something. When Natsuhiko explained his simplification process, Hidetoshi Tsuruno nodded and agreed: "Your idea is correct. Most Shinigami have achieved the ability to abandon chanting through thousands of trainings. But in fact, they have abandoned some rituals and rhythms. , through training, remembering the perception when breaking the path and binding the path, and simulating the perception, you can achieve this.”

With Hidetoshi Tsuruno's approval, Natsuhiko proposed two methods he had guessed, including adding gestures and using objects.

Hidetoshi Tsuruno said: "There is no need to increase gestures. The sense of ritual represented by gestures is relatively weak, and numerous gestures also mean an increase in time, so the gain outweighs the loss. As for using objects to replace rituals, this is a good idea, not only This is true, and special materials can be used to amplify the power.

"If the ability can be amplified, the improvement in combat effectiveness will be greatly increased."

After hearing what Hidetoshi Tsuruno said, Natsuhiko couldn't help but say.

Many Shinigami will not use Kidō and Bindō in battle. The reason is that the power of Kidō that can abandon chanting is greatly reduced, and those that cannot abandon chanting will take too long.

Just like when Renji Abarai tried to enter the Xuye Palace for the first time, he used the Podō 31 red cannon that abandoned chanting to attack the wall of the Xuye Palace, but there was only a little fire.

Therefore, the possibility of using Kidou in a fierce battle is too small, unless the battle force is crushed, just like Aizen used the black coffin without chanting to kill Komamura in seconds. In fact, Aizen did not need to chant, and he dropped the black rope summoned by Komamura in seconds. The King of Heavenly Punishment could only kill Komamura with just one strike, and it was still one strike that killed Komamura in seconds.

If it is really possible to use objects to restore the power of Kidou, and then let the Shinigami remember the perception when using it through training, so that the Kidou can be instantaneously cast without weakening the power, then the effect will be huge.

"Indeed."

Hidetoshi Tsuruno nodded and agreed.

Xia Yan was excited and said, "Teacher, let's research it as soon as possible."

Hidetoshi Tsuruno shook his head and said: "There is no value in research."

Xia Yan asked in confusion: "Why?"

Hidetoshi Tsuruno looked at Xia Yan and said: "The constant ghost rituals are different. Using an object as a ritual and to enhance the power can only enhance one ghost. Even ghosts with the same attributes cannot be used unless it is broken. The Dao Thirty-Three Cang Fire Pendants and the Po Dao Seventy-Three Lotus Cang Fire Pendants are of the same line as the Po Dao, otherwise you can only use the power of a ghost."

Xia Yan frowned when he heard this, but then said: "Being able to cast a ghost path instantly can also be of great help in combat."

Hidetoshi Tsuruno said with a smile: "The fighting method of using objects to carry spiritual children has been created a long time ago, and it has even been developed more thoroughly. It has also become a unique fighting method of a race. However, reality has proved that even if there are multiple fighting methods, Even though it’s diverse, it’s not as useful as the Death God’s Zanpakutō.”

Xia Yan had a guess, but he was still a little unsure. He asked, "What race is it?"

Tsuruno Hidetoshi said: "Quiecy."

When Natsuhiko heard this, he thought of the Quincy's fighting style in the original work. He threw away the Quincy's Holy Letters and Perfect Holy Body in the Thousand-Year Blood War Chapter, and used the fighting style of Ishida Uryū before he was given the Holy Letters. Compared.

The basic combat method is to use a spiritual bow, using a cross necklace as a carrier to stimulate the spiritual bow, and using spiritual seeds to condense long arrows.

There are many kinds of spiritual bows. The later Silver Ridge Arc Bird, the short spiritual bow in the Death God's Agent chapter, and the spiritual bow in the Thousand-Year Blood War chapter all have physical bodies.

At the same time, there are spirit-dispersing gloves to overdraw spiritual power, and soul-cutting objects to produce high-frequency vibrating spirit blades.

There are also silver cylinders, holy artifacts, silver blood clot arrows, etc.

They all use objects to carry spiritual power and turn them into spiritual weapons to attack the enemy.

Of course, this kind of spirit weapon is very different from the object-carrying ghost path mentioned by Xia Yan. The latter's attributes are more mottled, but the former's fighting methods are more diverse.

In terms of combat power, the Quincy's spirit weapon is more useful.

But even so, the Quincy in the Thousand-Year Blood War gradually abandoned this method, and instead used the power of the Holy Words and the Holy Body to fight.

So if you think about it carefully, this method of combat does not have much value. Low-level and mid-level ghosts have limited instant strength, and high-level ghosts are extremely difficult to carry even if they are supported by objects.

It is better to develop the ability of the Zanpakutō. After all, the Zanpakutō is a weapon imbued with the soul of the God of Death. It has the ability to reach the same goal as the God of Death by different means. It is more powerful and more useful.

Xia Yan wanted to understand this, and was a little depressed. His first idea was shattered.

But then Hidetoshi Tsuruno said: "You can think of so much, which is already very good. You have an outstanding talent for ghosts. Let me ask you, are you willing to join the ghosts after graduation?"
