Infinite Chimera Creation

The small bottle tumbled rapidly through the air, yet not a single drop of its liquid spilled. Finally, it landed on the ground, striking a mask. Instantly, the liquid seemed to come alive, writhing and flowing from the bottle onto the mask. The Hollow Mask, with its formidable defenses, impervious even to swords, was easily assimilated by this ominous liquid.

Once a mask is completely assimilated into the white liquid, the liquid splits into several streams and spreads to other masks, assimilating them as well. This process repeats continuously until there are no more masks left in the valley.

After all the masks disappeared, the liquids coalesced again, forming a large, churning mass. Suddenly, as if receiving a signal, the previously chaotic liquids began to spin rapidly. As the liquids spun, the spiritual particles that the Hollows had transformed into after their deaths, which filled the air, began to surge towards the liquids.

Visibly, as spiritual energy surged in, the white liquid mass began to shrink rapidly. Finally, when the terrifyingly dense spiritual energy in the air was completely dissipated, the liquid, which was originally the size of dozens of people, had shrunk to the size of a little finger.

Yuan Yuan gently waved his hand, and the liquid that had absorbed a massive amount of spiritual energy slowly flew back into his palm. Looking at the small ball of liquid, both Hong Xing Kongxiang and Kalim West were filled with disbelief. They knew how astonishing the spiritual energy in the air had been just now; to put it bluntly, if someone could compress that spiritual energy to the size of this liquid, it would inevitably become a solid.

Seemingly noticing everyone's confusion, Yuan Yuan slightly curled the corners of his lips and explained to them.

"The spiritual power of Hollows is different from that of Shinigami. Their method of strengthening through devouring and evolution inevitably results in their spiritual power being extremely mixed. This doesn't have much of an effect when they are still small Hollows, but when they become Great Hollows, this chaos becomes fatal given their massive spiritual power base. Therefore, Great Hollows need to purify their spiritual power through some means or substance, and this substance is located within the mask of the Great Hollows."

Each time a portion of spiritual energy is purified, a portion of this substance is consumed, causing the mask to shrink. This is why most Adjuchas are much smaller than Kylian. Even the later Arrancar transformation likely involved a significant amount of this substance being consumed, resulting in the loss of the mask.

Yuan Yuan rubbed his temples, seemingly troubled.

"Okay, I've gone off-topic. In short, what I was trying to say was that the reason that spiritual energy could be condensed to such a small size is because I used more than three hundred Hollow Masks to purify it. A large amount of spiritual energy was consumed during the purification process, so although the spiritual energy contained in this liquid is not small, it is not as large as you think."

With a gentle stroke of his finger, Yuan Yuan separated the liquid into two parts, one large and one small. He then beckoned Karim and West to come over.

"This is the reward I promised you. It can help you when you advance again. Although this spiritual power is insignificant compared to the spiritual power of a high-level Vastor ...

Chapter Twenty-Two: Szayelaporro

Josephine and the others stared wide-eyed at West and Karim, not daring to blink, as if they might vanish into thin air at any moment. The two involved parties, too, kept glancing at each other out of the corner of their eyes, but dared not move an inch.

A tense silence had remained for five minutes since they swallowed the liquid, and even though nothing had happened during those five minutes, neither of them dared to break the silence. Until…

"What's wrong with you guys? Have you been hit by a collective silence spell?"

After a few minutes of recovery, Yuan Yuan opened his eyes to find everyone sitting there motionless in a comical manner. He frowned and looked at them with confusion.

In an instant, everyone's expressions became incredibly varied. The most impatient of them all, Kong Xiang, glared at Yuan Yuan with a look of utter despair and shouted...

"Didn't you say that thing was really powerful? Shouldn't it have caused quite a stir? Like a burst of blood or a spiritual pressure that crushed everything for miles around?"

Yuan Yuan's expression became subtle. After observing everyone's varied expressions, he spoke with amusement.

"Don't tell me you're all like that brainless daydreamer, thinking there will be some big change, which is why you're afraid to move, right? I already said when I introduced it, that thing is used when advancing to Vastod, how could it possibly show any difference now? To put it bluntly, with Karim and the others' current physical strength at the Adjuchas level, even if only a trace of that extremely pure spiritual energy leaks out, it can easily leave their bodies riddled with holes."

Immediately, everyone shook their heads frantically, indicating that they were not like that brainless Kongxiang. Hongxing pointed at Kongxiang without hesitation, his face full of disdain as he spoke.

"Like that idiot? How could that be? We kept quiet because we saw that you were too tired just now, Yuan Yuan, so that you could rest in peace."

This time, everyone started nodding frantically again. Yuan Yuan shook his head with amusement, not exposing these guys, and turned to look at the wise Gillian that was obediently lying there.

Yuan Yuan had long sensed that this Gillian was abnormal. It wasn't that it possessed rationality; all Adjuchas evolved from intelligent Gillians. What truly caught Yuan Yuan's attention was the creature's eyes. When it was first captured, its eyes were filled with fear and hatred, and these emotions reached their peak when Yuan Yuan ripped off the masks of those irrational Gillians.

Up to this point, the Killian had behaved normally, just like any other intelligent life form witnessing the slaughter of its kind. Yuan Yuan had only treated it as a slightly special experimental subject. However, when the liquid created by Yuan Yuan appeared, the Killian's gaze changed. The hatred and fear within it completely vanished, replaced by worship, longing, and desire.

If it were only longing and desire, Yuan Yuan could still think of it as an instinctive craving for a large amount of spiritual power. However, the undisguised worship made Yuan Yuan interested in this experimental subject.

Looking at the bloodshot eyes behind the fence-like mask characteristic of the intelligent Kylian, Yuan Yuan's lips curled into a cold smile.

“Speak, use your inadequate language to convince me not to kill you.”

Despite Killian's towering, mountain-like body and abundant physical and spiritual energy, and Yuan Yuan's ordinary human physique and depleted spiritual and physical strength, both the onlookers, including West, and Killian himself, felt as if Yuan Yuan was overwhelmingly dominating the child.

Killian trembled, causing the ground beneath his feet to shake a few times, before the massive man spoke with an excessively respectful tone.

“My lord, my name is Szayelaporro Granz. I hope that you, in your mercy, will allow me, a humble man, to follow you and learn from your great knowledge.”

Yuan Yuan's interest deepened, his lips curled up even more, and his voice became low and husky, as if possessing an inexplicable air of mystery.

"Aren't you begging me to spare your life, but instead begging to learn from me? With thoughts like that, you must be an anomaly among anomalies in the Void."

Szayelaporro's demeanor became even more submissive. Although his expression was partially obscured by a mask, his tone alone suggested a resolute determination.

"Before witnessing the miracles you displayed, I was just like my kin, ignorant, savage, and foolish, believing that power was everything. But after seeing that magnificent sight, a great voice began to roar in my heart, telling me, 'This is what I should pursue with all my life.' I believe that is the deepest instinct of my soul, so even if there is a great possibility of losing my life, I am not willing to miss this opportunity to follow you and touch the divine."

Kongxiang stared at the Killian, his face filled with disbelief. He was the Hollow born from Yuan Yuan's heart, so he naturally knew the characteristics of Hollows. The most prominent characteristic of Hollows was **desire**. All Hollows, at the moment of their birth, experience a strong sense of desire, but the chaotic spiritual energy and thoughts at birth cause them to lose their judgment, thus attributing this desire to **appetite**. They believe themselves to be hungry, to crave to devour souls.

But in reality, every illusory desire is different; that desire is the obsession that transforms them from wholeness into nothingness. Once they become nothingness, they forget this obsession, taking "eating" as their primary belief in life, constantly devouring souls, and wandering aimlessly in the world.

Once a Hollow recalls the obsession that made him a Hollow, his strength will increase by leaps and bounds in a very short time.

The daydream stemmed from hearing the word "uncle," which reminded him of his own, or rather Yuan Yuan's, obsession: family. And now, it seems this Kyrian named Szayelaporro has clearly found his own obsession.

Although Yuan Yuan was unaware of Xu's characteristics, he could see longing—the most sincere longing—in those bloodshot eyes that were originally filled with killing intent and chaos.

"A guy with eyes like that would make a good assistant."

With a smirk playing on his lips, Yuan Yuan shifted his gaze to daydreaming.

“I think you wouldn’t mind staying in Hueco Mundo. No, you’d definitely love to stay in Hueco Mundo to solidify your uncle’s position.”

Thinking about how he would be surrounded by those little guys from West calling him "uncle" while Red Star could only stay in Yuan Yuan's mental world and enjoy the imperial edict and Yuan Yuan's sharp tongue, Kong Xiang nodded in agreement without any hesitation.

Seeing Kong Xiang nod in agreement, Yuan Yuan revealed a smile that he hadn't expected.

"In that case, you can stay and help me teach this little guy. Although your intelligence is not enough to conduct research independently, you should be able to use my memories from my previous research to guide students."

Yuan Yuan pressed his finger to his temple, pulled out a strand of silvery liquid, and handed it to Kong Xiang, whose face had turned extremely pale.

"Here you go. My experimental memories are far more useful than those so-called experimental notes. If I weren't worried that my memories would limit that little guy's development, I wouldn't have given this kind of thing to an idiot like you."

He kept telling himself that once Yuan Yuan returned to Soul Society, he wouldn't have to endure this mockery anymore. Only then did he suppress his anger and force a twisted smile as he took the memories from Yuan Yuan's hands.

Looking at that wisp of silver memory, Yuan Yuan couldn't help but sigh. Even the technology of the Micro-Demon World was more advanced than that of this world where people would grab a knife at the drop of a hat. It was amazing that they could simplify the technology of extracting memories to such an extent.

Chapter Twenty-Three: Eyes

Yamamoto Genryusai could swear on his beloved beard that he hadn't experienced any truly intense emotional fluctuations for at least two hundred years; he even felt the old wounds on his face starting to ache again. And the cause of all this was, of course, the newly appointed captain of the Seventh Division, Yuan Yuan.

Before meeting this young man, the old man had always believed that there was no one in the world who could give him more of a headache than his disciple, Kyoraku Shunsui. But after meeting Yuan Yuan, this old man, who had even formed an assassin group for the Soul Society, finally understood what helplessness meant.

On his first day in office, he sent all the members of his squad to the Fourth Division for treatment. The next day, he openly fought the captain of the Eleventh Division, destroying nearly half of the Eleventh Division's barracks. After being arrested by Xing Jun, he didn't utter a single word of apology and escaped from prison thanks to the bail of the other captains. After his release, he didn't even serve six months as captain before leaving behind a photo and running off to the real world, citing the unreliable reason, "I want to raise a dog."

Originally, Yamamoto Genryusai thought that after a series of events, he would no longer be surprised by what this young man did. However, today, under the watchful eyes of his apprentice Kyoraku Shunsui, the Captain-Commander reluctantly overturned his previous conclusion.

It turns out that some people, even if they always have a cold face and look very serious, can easily provoke your anger more easily than those who are always joking and laughing, yet leave you helpless.

"Captain Yuan Yuan, what's that behind you?"

Suppressing the urge to leap from his eyebrows, the Captain-Commander gripped his cane tightly, trying to keep his voice calm.

Without even turning around, Yuan Yuan raised an eyebrow, seemingly wondering why the captain was asking such an obvious question.

"My dog."

"Ah, yes, your dog, just your dog, but," the old man gripped his cane, his face calm, but inwardly he was roaring, "Why is your dog a Hollow?! The monitoring team detected a faint Hollow's spiritual pressure following their captain, who had been away for a month. They thought the rookie captain had been captured by a high-ranking Hollow hiding his spiritual pressure and was invading the Seireitei. They immediately triggered the entire Seireitei's alarm! The current situation is that all the captains are waiting for you at the Seireitei's main gate!"

Indeed, following behind Yuan Yuan was a large dog, as big as a bear, with striking scarlet fur and two fierce eyes, one green and one red. A ghastly white mask with two sharp horns sprouting from its forehead adorned its head, making it incredibly conspicuous in this land filled with death. The large, dark hole in its waist proved that the mask wasn't a prank Yuan Yuan had played on it.

Seemingly sensing the captain's confusion, Yuan Yuan rubbed his temples and spoke with some distress.

"I'm telling you, Captain-Commander, you haven't forgotten, have you? With the concentration of spiritual particles in the Soul Society, even ordinary humans without spiritual power would have their souls collapse if they stayed there for too long. Do you really think the soul of an ordinary dog ​​can survive in the Soul Society? As for dogs with spiritual power, they are even rarer than people with spiritual power. Even if I killed all the dogs in an entire city, I probably still wouldn't find one."

"But he's an illusion!"

Yamamoto Genryusai tapped his cane on the ground, his expression turning serious. The old man had spent his entire life fighting against Hollows, and his aversion to these creatures was ingrained in his very bones.

"To be more precise, he's a nobody who doesn't even qualify as a small fry."

Unfazed by the old man's stern expression, Yuan Yuan's voice remained icy.

"Even if he grows to his limit, in this Soul Society where there are no other Hollows, he cannot meet the condition of absorbing ninety-nine Hollows and evolving into a Killian. How can a little guy who is not even a Killian possibly cause any trouble in the Soul Society full of Shinigami?"

The captain remained silent for a moment. Indeed, Yuan Yuan was right. In an environment like the Spirit Court, even if a Hollow existed, it would be nothing more than a small fry, posing no threat whatsoever. However, the old man, who had fought against Hollows for five hundred years, did not want to see such evil things as Hollows enter the Spirit Court, which he had protected his entire life.

"But have you thought about food? What do you plan to use to feed this soul-devouring evil?"

Yuan Yuan pursed his lips, raised his hand, condensed a ball of spiritual energy, and sent it to the big dog's mouth.

“How could I not have thought of that? Devouring souls doesn’t mean you can only devour souls. Look, this little guy can completely consume the spirit energy ball I provided.”

Sure enough, the big red-furred dog didn't hesitate at all and swallowed the spirit energy ball in Yuan Yuan's hand in one gulp.

His eyelids twitched. The old man remained silent for a long time, then turned and walked into the Cleansing Hall with a sour face, leaving behind only one sentence.

"From now on, no Grim Reaper is allowed to keep pets."

"Congratulations, Yuan Yuan-san! It's been a long time since I've seen Old Man Shan with such an expression. Seeing it again feels so heartwarming."

Kyoraku Shunsui, still wearing that outlandish floral straw hat, patted Yuan Yuan on the shoulder with a mischievous grin, as if he were proud of it.

Ukitake Jushiro chuckled wryly and tugged at his friend's sleeve, reminding him that their teacher wasn't far off. Sure enough, the old man stopped, turned to stare at Kyoraku Shunsui, and squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth.

"Chunshui, I suddenly remembered that since you became the captain, I haven't personally instructed you in swordsmanship for a long time. There's no time like the present, so I'll take the time today to teach you a lesson after so long."

Kyoraku Shunsui's face suddenly fell. He gave a bitter smile and helplessly followed his teacher toward the First Division's exclusive training ground.

Yuan Yuan stared expressionlessly at the middle-aged man who, despite being middle-aged, still loved to court death and had actually died from it. He ruffled the head of the large dog behind him and, without much hesitation, said, "I need to bond with my new pet, so I won't disturb the team leaders' gathering any longer," before heading straight for his dormitory.

The captains stood before the gate to the severance, a gust of autumn wind blowing by, bringing an indescribable sense of desolation.

Do you hold your family gatherings at the front door?

Ignoring the feelings of the captains who had nothing to do with him, Yuan Yuan slowly walked towards the barracks. Behind him, a large, blood-red dog followed him obediently.

Suddenly, Yuan Yuan parted his lips slightly and uttered a sound as faint as a mosquito's buzz.

"So, are you still able to stay in touch after entering the Soul Society?"

The large, ferocious-looking dog opened its mouth, sticking out its tongue like an ordinary dog, while simultaneously emitting a soft, gentle female voice.

"Yes, Father, the connection between the eyes remains stable and can accurately transmit all the host's senses."

Yuan Yuan nodded almost imperceptibly, a satisfied smile curving his lips.

The fact that Red Star's problems were resolved during this trip to Hueco Mundo was within his expectations. The fact that Karim became Adjuchas, subdued the Hollow Mensa Szayelaporro, and that Chimega's Pabi collected the special Hollow Eyes were unexpected surprises.

There's not much to say about Karim and Szayelaporro; while unexpected, it didn't surprise Yuan Yuan. However, Paiby's independent collection of special Vision Eyes did indeed surprise Yuan Yuan a little.

Pippi was originally a fully-fledged cyborg during her transformation. Her only ability was to implant a large number of specially treated eyes into her eye sockets, allowing these eyes to function simultaneously without interfering with each other. In the Harry Potter world, Yuan Yuan didn't specifically collect these eyes, which resulted in Pippi's weak strength and unremarkable appearance.
