Dark hall.
The place where the Spirit King is is a dark hall.
In the dark hall, several pure white curtains hang. Through the curtains, you can see an amber-like thing hanging. Among the amber-like things, there is a figure.
The figure has a pair of strange eyes, with no pupils and no whites. Those eyes have never been seen before, but looking at those eyes, it is as if you are facing the whole world.
"This... is the Spirit King?"
Looking at the young man in front of him, Suzuki Nan whispered, with a hint of surprise and a touch of panic in his tone.
"Why...the Spirit King appears like this, as if he is...being tortured..."
The being named Spirit King in front of him had lost his arms and even his legs were only half-length. Not only that, there was no trace of life in him.
Regarding Suzuki Nan's words, Kimura Muyang did not reply.
When he entered here, the moment he saw the Spirit King, a strange feeling arose in his heart.
As if his body was out of control, Kimura Muyang walked towards the Spirit King step by step.
Every step he took, every step closer to the Spirit King, the throbbing in Kimura Muyang's heart became stronger.
There was clearly no sense of life in the eyes of the Spirit King, but they seemed to contain great power, attracting Kimura Muyang to get closer to him little by little.
Suzuki Nan seemed unaware of Kimura Muyang's strangeness, and still stood there, staring blankly at the Spirit King.
"How is this going?"
The body involuntarily approached the Spirit King, but Kimura Muyang's thoughts were not affected.
It was an amazing experience.
He was clearly aware of his situation, and he also understood in his heart that it would be unwise to approach the Spirit King rashly like this. He was not controlled by any force and forced to move forward.
However, the body is still moving forward!
It’s like instinct!
As Kimura Muyang moved forward, scenes flashed before his eyes, as if they were traveling through time and space before.
The same thing happened to him when he returned to the present from the past, watching the nearly thousand years of Soul Society history condensed into a picture flashing before his eyes.
However, the situation now is somewhat different from that then.
He did not travel through time and space, he was just walking here, but every step he took toward the Soul King felt like he was experiencing changes in the Soul Society.
The power of the Spirit King is affecting the time and space around him.
With such a realization flashing through his heart, Kimura Muyang had already walked in front of the Spirit King. At such a distance, Kimura Muyang finally felt a trace of the Spirit King's aura.
It is a broad atmosphere that accommodates everything, nurtures everything, and supports everything.
With Kimura Muyang's height, standing in front of the Spirit King, his eyes were directly opposite those of the Spirit King.
At this moment, the Spirit King's eyes suddenly moved. It was a very subtle movement, but it made the hair on Kimura Muyang's whole body stand up.
Regardless of what he learned or what he saw through the fragments of time, the Soul King is an existence that has completely lost his self-awareness and only serves as a wedge to maintain the world.
However, with such a presence, his eyes actually moved!
Just when such thoughts flashed through Kimura Muyang's mind, a vast power suddenly poured into his body from his eyes.
Along with those powers pouring into Kimura Muyang's body, there are also a large number of pictures.
He saw the first grass breaking through the soil, the first flower blooming, and the first river emerging in Soul Society. And, the appearance of the first soul!
More and more souls enter Soul Society, and finally the first person with spiritual power appears!
More and more people with spiritual power appear, and those with spiritual power are uniformly called the God of Death! Class is born from this.
After the name Death began to spread, the ways in which Death fought gradually became richer. Some people created Kidō based on the arrangement and combination of Reiki, some created Shunpo based on the flow of Reiko, and some based on the explosive power of Reiko and the spirit body. The powerful physique created Bai Da.
Then, the first Zanpakutō appeared!
Since then, the four major combat systems of Death, Slashing, Fist and Walking Ghost have been formally formed!
With the improvement of the combat system, there are more and more wars in the Soul Society. The stronger the power, the greater the ambition. Forces are formed one after another, and various wars break out frequently until a person appears.
Yamamoto Shigekuni!
Holding the strongest heat-type Zanpakutō in Soul Society, he completely ended the war in Soul Society with the strongest strength in Soul Society. He established an organization like the Gotei Thirteenth Team to lead the Shinigami in Soul Society. The most central.
Then, he saw Yhwach!
He saw Yhwach establishing the [Empire of Light] in this world, integrating the power of all the Quincies, and then leading the Quincies to start a war with the God of Death. That war ultimately ended in the Quincy's defeat.
The Shinigami paid a heavy price and won the war, while the Quincy was defeated and fled. Its leader Yhwach fell into a deep sleep, and the rest hid in the shadow of the Quiet Spirit Palace, building an [Invisible Empire] that lurked for thousands of years. Finally, after Yhwach awakened and regained his strength, war started again!
He saw Captain Yamamoto being killed, the Seireitei being invaded, trampled, and destroyed, Kurosaki Ichigo being called into the Soul King Palace and leaving a gap when he left, while Yhwach took the opportunity to invade the Soul King Palace. The Zero Squadron was suppressed by Yhwach's bodyguards, and the Gotei 13 Squadron supported Soul King Palace and was also suppressed.
He saw familiar figures fighting hard battles with Yhwach's personal guards, and he also saw close companions risking their lives to stop Yhwach's progress.
Then he saw himself!
He saw himself walking into the place where the Spirit King was resting, saw himself walking step by step in front of the Spirit King, and even saw the Spirit King's figure reflected in his own pupils.
The picture ends here!
"This is···"
Changing the perspective, Kimura Muyang suddenly came back to his senses, and a strange feeling arose in his heart.
Before he could fully appreciate that strange feeling, Kimura Muyang felt the changes in his body first, and his physical condition was better than ever.
His whole body was filled with strength, and his physical fitness had almost undergone earth-shaking changes.
It is not only the body that has changed, but also the spiritual pressure. Kimura Muyang can clearly feel that his current spiritual pressure is fundamentally different from before. This is a dimensional gap!
Not only compared to his previous self, but also compared to the members of Team Zero, Kimura Muyang's current spiritual pressure also suppresses them dimensionally.
But, compared to these...
Looking at the Spirit King in front of him, Kimura Muyang's heart surged.
Everything he saw just now was shown from a transcendent perspective, not the perspective of a bystander or a participant, but like the gaze of a god.
Especially when I saw myself at the end, I felt as if... he was the Spirit King!
