Death's Hidden Mobile

But before it could be completely cleaved in two, Yamamoto Genryusai's Zankatachi also cut Yhwach in two from the waist and abdomen.

The next moment, flames erupted from the Blazing Blade, completely engulfing Yhwach, who had been reduced to four pieces.

The flames subsided, and Yhwach was completely dead, leaving not a trace behind.

Two peak-level Shinigami, along with a Captain-level powerhouse, used Still Silver to kill Yhwach, who hadn't yet awakened his Sharingan.

The Quincy War has come to a complete end.

. . .

After Yhwach died, Yamamoto Genryusai landed on the ground, stood there, and gazed at Aizen.

Although Natsuhiko told himself that Aizen would help him kill Yhwach the moment Soi Fon appeared, Yamamoto Genryusai believed that Aizen was a more terrifying being than Yhwach, especially since everyone was still trapped in the illusion of Kyoka Suigetsu.

Moreover, Xia Yan's involvement gave Yamamoto Genryusai the idea that things were not over yet.

An even larger plan is lurking in the shadows.

"Captain Yamamoto, your injury..."

Soi Fon appeared beside Yamamoto Genryusai and asked with concern.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

Yamamoto Genryusai sighed, standing there, still staring intently at Aizen.

He dared not make the first move because Yamamoto Genryusai was at his last gasp, while Aizen still had a considerable amount of strength left.

Even with Yamamoto Genryusai and Soi Fon combined, they couldn't restrain Aizen alone.

Seeing their expressions, Aizen said, "Don't worry, I won't make a move. After all, I've fulfilled my promise, and the other person also needs to fulfill his."

"Agreement?"

Soi Fon frowned, somewhat puzzled.

Aizen smiled and said, "Didn't you know? It was Xia Yan who asked me to help you. At the same time, he also wanted to do me a favor. Didn't he tell you any of this?"

"Can I do you a favor?" Soi Fon frowned, looked at Aizen, and said, "He's not going to let you go."

Aizen smiled and said, "Of course, he won't let me go, but before he locks me up again, he will take me to see someone and kill him with his own hands."

"Who is it?" Soi Fon asked coldly.

Aizen slowly uttered two words: "Soul King".

Upon hearing the words "Spirit King," Soi Fon and Yamamoto Genryusai's expressions changed drastically, with the latter exclaiming, "Impossible!"

Soi Fon, pale-faced, said blankly, "How could it be the Spirit King? Why would he kill the Spirit King? This is impossible."

However, the next moment, a figure appeared beside Aizen and said softly, "That's right, my goal is to kill the Soul King and take his place."

As the sound rang out, Xia Yan's figure slowly appeared in the air.

Chapter 204: The Spirit King's Palace

"Kill the Spirit King and take his place?"

Soi Fon and Yamamoto Genryusai's expressions changed simultaneously upon hearing these two words.

“Killing the Spirit King is a capital offense!” Yamamoto Genryusai roared angrily.

Xia Yan said with a smile, "Captain, if a person cannot be killed, then there is no such thing as a death sentence."

"Xia Yan, why did you do this?"

Soi Fon looked at Natsuhiko with a puzzled expression.

The Xia Yan who was now standing only a dozen meters away from her had nothing in common with the Xia Yan that Soi Fon remembered. Moreover, his words and actions made him seem like a complete stranger.

Xia Yan said softly, "I have repeatedly threatened the people I care about, and I am tired of the Spirit King's inaction. So I have decided to kill the Spirit King and become the Spirit King myself to protect the Three Realms."

Yamamoto Genryusai snorted coldly and said, "So you're preparing to fight the entire Gotei 13?"

Xia Yan smiled and said, "Captain-Commander Yamamoto, I remember the Gotei 13's duty isn't to protect the Soul King, is it? The Gotei 13's purpose is to protect the Seireitei, allowing the Shinigami to recuperate. So, Captain-Commander Yamamoto, are you sure you want to fight for this elusive Soul King?"

Upon hearing this, Yamamoto Genryusai paused for a moment, then fell silent.

The duty of the Gotei 13 has never been to protect the Soul King, and Yamamoto Genryusai has no need to protect the Soul King.

"But the Spirit King is the god of all the Grim Reapers, and every Grim Reaper must fight for the Spirit King."

Yamamoto Genryusai said softly.

Xia Yan shook his head and said, "First of all, the Spirit King is not the god of death, but the god of all living beings. The Spirit King's role is to stabilize the three realms. He represents not only death, but also humans, Hollows, and Quincy."

Xia Yan looked at Yamamoto Genryusai and said, "I want to ask Captain-Commander Yamamoto, if Soi Fon hadn't helped the Shinigami obtain the Star Seal that allows them to steal Bankai, if Yoruichi hadn't told Mayuri Kurotsuchi how to break the Star Seal, and if I hadn't led so many people to help the Seireitei, what would the Gotei 13 be like now?"

Yamamoto Genryusai remained silent, while Soi Fon replied, "The Gotei 13 will suffer heavy casualties."

"Are you trying to say that you've made a great contribution to the Seireitei? I admit your contribution was great, but that's not a reason for me to allow you to kill the Soul King," Yamamoto Genryusai said coldly.

But Xia Yan smiled and said, "I'm not talking about my conquest, but about telling the Captain-Commander that Yhwach, who created the Quincy, is the son of the Soul King. In other words, the Soul King's offspring almost destroyed Seireitei, and I saved Seireitei."

“That’s impossible.” Yamamoto Genryusai’s face was grim as he said blankly, “How could Yhwach be the son of the Spirit King?”

For an individual, the greatest betrayal is that which destroys them is the very thing they were loyal to.

Xia Yan said, "Yhwach is the son of the Soul King, there is no doubt about that, Captain-Commander. I say this only in the hope that Captain-Commander Yamamoto can maintain basic neutrality. Because I will replace the Soul King and become the Soul King, and then all of you will be loyal to me."

As Xia Yan spoke, Yamamoto Genryusai narrowed his eyes.

Soi Fon sighed and said, "Does that mean even I must pledge allegiance to you?"

Xia Yan looked at Soi Fon and said softly, "Of course not. When I become the Spirit King, I will marry you and you will become my queen."

Soi Fon gazed at Natsuhiko with deep affection and asked, "But how can I be sure that you are still the same Natsuhiko you were before?"

Xia Yan suddenly jumped down from the air and came to Soi Fon's side, saying softly, "If you tell me not to go, then I will stop immediately. Then I will take you away to a place where no one can find us, and the two of us will live happily ever after. So, tell me yourself that you want me to stop."

"Soi Fon, make him stop."

Yamamoto Genryusai's voice came, but Soi Fon didn't say it aloud. Instead, she said, "Then become the Spirit King."

Soi Fon possesses more intense emotions than anyone else; she is certain that Natsuhiko is still the same person he always was, and therefore chooses to support him.

Hearing this, Xia Yan hugged Soi Fon tighter and said, "Then come with me."

Xia Yan grasped Soi Fon's hand and pulled her up to fly away.

But at that moment, Yamamoto Genryusai, wielding the Zankatana, slashed at Natsuhiko.

"The raging fire of the katana lies to the north, the heavens and earth are reduced to ashes."

The blade arrived in front of Xia Yan in an instant, but countless walls of light appeared in front of the blade.

The blade cleaved through layers of light, but finally came to a complete stop.

"what is this?"

Yamamoto Genryusai asked in surprise, not knowing that there was actually an object in this world that could block his attacks.

Xia Yan said with a smile, "This is a shield formed by spiritual particles, with a total of one million layers, which can withstand all attacks."

The million-shield is an ability that Aizen could achieve in his first phase. It can withstand three Getsuga Tenshou attacks, demonstrating astonishing defensive power.

As Xia Yan spoke, he waved his hand, and a bolt of lightning struck out instantly, hitting Yamamoto Genryusai on the back of the head.

The next moment, Yamamoto Genryusai fell unconscious to the ground.

"You actually managed to do this?"

Soi Fon was somewhat surprised to see this.

Xia Yan said with a smile, "It's just that Captain Yamamoto was seriously injured. Otherwise, with his physical strength, my lightning wouldn't have been able to put him to sleep."

"However, I need to get some treatment before I leave. Soi Fon, may I borrow your hair clip?"

As Xia Yan spoke, he took off Soi Fon's hair clip, a hair clip with only two pieces.

Xia Yan pinched the hairpin, flicked it gently, and the hairpin flew far away, transforming into two little figures, "Double Heaven Return Shield".

Two tiny figures raised shields and landed on Yamamoto Genryusai's abdomen, which healed at a visible speed.

"Is this the ability of the traveler girl?"

Soi Fon stared wide-eyed at the two little people.

Xia Yan said with a smile, "They're just some simple abilities. They'll belong to you from now on."

Orihime Inoue's shield, Shun Rikka, consists of six tiny figures whose power originates from the incomplete Hogyoku within Rukia Kuchiki's body.

I now possess the perfect Hogyoku and the ability to make dreams come true; I can create such an ability.

Although limited by the hairpin, only two little figures were created, but these two little figures had a more powerful healing effect than Orihime Inoue.

After the treatment was completed, the two little figures flew back and landed on Soi Fon's forehead, becoming her hair clips.

Soi Fon touched the hair clip and felt a spiritual connection to it.

Xia Yan smiled and said, "Alright, let's go."

Xia Yan, carrying Soi Fon, came to Aizen's side. The latter smiled and asked, "The Spirit King Palace is in another dimension. There are seventy-two barriers between it and the Seireitei. Without the King's Key, it is impossible to reach it."

The Royal Key is the key to the Soul King's Palace. Without it, the seventy-two layers of barriers between the Soul King's Palace and Seireitei would block others.

Even Yhwach needed to go to the Soul King Palace during the time when the barrier couldn't close after Ichigo Kurosaki returned from the Soul King Palace.

Wang Jian, on the other hand, is the Zero Squad member himself, who reshaped his body with the power of the Spirit King to form Wang Jian.

Xia Yan can use his ability to make dreams come true to create the King Key, but he must first understand the true nature of the King Key's existence.

Xia Yan then stretched out his right hand, and arcs of electricity shot out, flying towards the sky.

More and more lightning bolts gathered in the sky, then scattered in all directions, seemingly searching for something.

Finally, the sky was torn apart little by little, revealing a huge reflection membrane, within which were countless reflection membranes layered upon each other.

The reflective membrane acts as a barrier between spaces; the space outside and inside the reflective membrane are entirely different spaces.

There are seventy-two layers of this barrier.

Nerves emanated from Xia Yan's left hand and then touched the reverse membrane. The nerves could not enter the reverse membrane, but they could absorb information from the reverse membrane little by little and transmit it to Xia Yan.

The nerves were blocked from penetrating deeper.
