Soul Supreme Starting from Death

If it was Tianpeng who was operating it, he and the lid would probably be blown away by the huge impact force in an instant, but the operator here was Stark, who easily suppressed the impact with just a little effort.

Chapter 102 Farewell

"The passage has been opened, Urahara. I hope that we won't be enemies when we meet next time."

Tianpeng helped open the black chamber, and Gu Shi waved goodbye to Urahara Kisuke. Gu Shi was not surprised by this somewhat hasty separation.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. After witnessing the horror of Stark, as long as Urahara Kisuke is not mentally ill, he will not be able to continue to stay in Hueco Mundo. And until he has enough ability to protect himself, Urahara Kisuke and Shihouin Yoruichi will most likely never set foot in Hueco Mundo again.

Even if Urahara Kisuke reported Stark's information to the Criminal Army or the 13th Division, it is likely that no more Shinigami would step into Hueco Mundo for a long time in the future.

Of course, the result may also be the opposite. Perhaps the captain-general will think that Stark is a threat that must be eliminated, and form an unprecedented Hueco Mundo expeditionary force, mobilizing multiple captains to break into Hueco Mundo and try to kill Stark.

However, no matter how Gu Shi thought about it, he felt that the possibility was pitifully small. The spiritual pressure leaked from Stark's voice twice when he spoke not only made Urahara Kisuke understand how powerful he was, but also made Urahara Kisuke see how rough his control over his own spiritual pressure was.

The "Black Chamber", the passage from Hueco Mundo to the real world, can only bear limited pressure. If a stronger Killian enters the Black Chamber, it may cause the Black Chamber to collapse. If someone at the level of Achukas wants to enter the Black Chamber again, he must restrain his own spiritual pressure.

Stark's huge spiritual pressure that was leaking out at any time did not have any chance of entering the Black Chamber. To be more precise, around him, the Black Chamber could not be opened at all, and naturally, it was impossible to go to the real world and Soul Society.

Without knowing the information that Stark might transform into an Arrancar and become able to properly control his own Reiatsu, the Soul Society's high-ups judged that even if they left Stark alone, he would have no chance of threatening the real world and Soul Society, and would only harm the great Hollows in Hueco Mundo. There was no need to risk the loss of their captain by attacking him.

"Oh, Gu Shi is so heartless. We have such a good relationship, how could we become enemies?"

Originally, Urahara Kisuke had gradually become accustomed to the Hollows' way of communicating, and spoke more and more bluntly. However, after being severely frightened by Stark and almost being crushed to death without even seeing the enemy, he seemed to be wary of the Hollows and the Hollow Mundo again. At this time, he returned to the way he was when everyone first met, putting on an indecent smile and playing dumb.

"Urahara, your smile is so ugly."

Gu Shi could understand the change in Urahara Kisuke, but Jiro obviously didn't like his fake smile and expressed his dislike very directly.

When Urahara Kisuke became a little embarrassed, Jiro waved his hands impatiently.

“Forget it, I wasn’t considerate enough. If I don’t smile like this when we return to a place like Soul Society, you’re probably going to have a hard time.

"'When we get together, we don't talk about fame and fortune, but drink a cup of wine to wish you good health.' Urahara, as a friend, I'm giving you a suggestion. If life in Soul Society is really depressing, why not go to the living world every once in a while and relax in a deserted place. If you hold it in every day, you will get sick sooner or later."

After a little hesitation, Erlang added another sentence.

"... Hueco Mundo, please don't come here again. This place is really unsafe."

Listening to Jiro's sincere persuasion, Urahara Kisuke could no longer maintain the fake smile on his face.

To be honest, for the God of Death, Hueco Mundo is really not a suitable place to live. The manic spiritual energy in the air makes him feel slightly uncomfortable every moment, but during the time in Hueco Mundo, he is really happy and comfortable.

There is no need to consider family responsibilities, no need to worry about the defenses of the higher nobles, and no need to worry about incurring endless hostility if one word is expressed incorrectly.

The most important thing is that when he brings up the questions that he has been thinking about for a long time to discuss, he doesn't have to face a bunch of confused and stupid monkey faces.

Tianpeng could follow his train of thought, Gu Shi could discuss with him, and even Erlang, who was devoted to studying martial arts, was different from those Grim Reapers whose brains were trained with muscles, and he could raise some meaningful questions from time to time.

Even though those questions seemed too simple to him and could be easily answered, it at least proved that Erlang was really thinking and really wanted to create something.

Everything in Soul Society has been solidified. The Shinigami don't need to and don't know how to "think" at ordinary times. They just need to cultivate spiritual power, communicate with their Zanpakutō, and practice Kidō step by step, and they can steadily climb up in the Soul Society's system.

Even the captains of the Death Gods rarely want to consider creating something. They prefer to spend their time drinking, instructing their teammates, and making friends with nobles.

There is certainly nothing wrong with this. After all, in an already stable and complete system, acting within the framework of the system is the safest and least error-prone.

If everyone was too focused on creating something new, they might end up creating something bad and destabilizing, causing chaos in Soul Society and bringing unnecessary losses.

Kisuke Urahara can understand those Shinigami, but he can't bring himself to give up thinking and integrate with them. From then on, he lives a routine life like ordinary Shinigami, and makes becoming a captain his life goal. After becoming the captain, he begins to enjoy life peacefully, waiting for the day in the future when he will die in battle or retire because he is unable to fight.

He always can't help thinking about a lot of things.

What is the difference between Death and Hollow?

Spiritual power is one of the cornerstones of the world. So, by manipulating spiritual power, can we steadily manipulate time and space? Can we reverse life and death?

Everything about a god of death is made up of spiritual power. If the spiritual power of a god of death is taken out in batches and injected into the body of another god of death, will the two gods of death merge? Or will one replace the other?

If the entire spiritual power composition of a Shinigami is analyzed and the composition is replicated with ownerless spirit particles, will a Shinigami identical to the sample be created? If so, will their memories and emotions be different?

The spiritual power of the Void and the spiritual power of the God of Death are both spiritual power. If the composition of the Void's spiritual power is analyzed and the spiritual power structure in the God of Death is guided to change to the spiritual power structure of the Void, will the God of Death become Void? Or will it acquire the characteristics of the Void as the God of Death?

Urahara Kisuke has too many questions in his mind, and he is very curious about this world, but he never dares to speak out these questions in Soul Society, not even to his best friend Shihouin Yoruichi.

Because Urahara Kisuke knew how unorthodox, crazy and unreasonable many of his ideas seemed to ordinary people.

Urahara Kisuke believed that even if Yoruichi knew about his thoughts, she would not break up with him. But he also believed that after knowing this, Yoruichi would persuade him earnestly to give up those thoughts and stubbornly pull himself back to the "right path".

As a friend, Ye Yi would believe him but would not understand him.

But Gu Shi can.

Although he had never told Gu Shi about his dangerous ideas, Urahara Kisuke believed it very much because when Gu Shi was explaining knowledge about cells and genes to him, he mentioned concepts such as cloning and transplantation more than once.

One side starts from the perspective of flesh and blood, and the other side uses spiritual power as the basis of thinking, but the things they think about have more than one thing in common, so they can certainly understand each other.

As a Shinigami, during the process of discussing and learning from each other with Gu Shi, Urahara Kisuke actually had the thought "I should belong here" more than once.

He knew that this kind of thinking was wrong and inappropriate, so he suppressed these "distractions" again and again, pretending that there was nothing wrong with him, and immersed himself in the joy of discussing and communicating with Gu Shi and Tian Peng.

This time he said goodbye to Gu Shi and decided to return to Soul Society. In fact, only a small part of the reason was because of the threat posed by the horrible monster. More importantly, after calming down after the shock, he finally realized that if he continued, he might really abandon Soul Society for the sake of "understanding" and stay in Hueco Mundo.

This shouldn't be the case.

So, even if you are reluctant, you have to say goodbye.

Restraining the complicated emotions surging in his heart, Urahara Kisuke put on a frivolous smile again, his eyes narrowed into two thin slits, not letting the reluctance in his eyes reveal even a little bit, and he waved his hands vigorously.

"I'll accept your suggestion, Jiro. Let's say goodbye now, everyone~"

After saying this, Urahara Kisuke turned around and walked into the black cavity "without any reluctance".

Chapter 103 White Sand

"Urahara, this guy, left in such a cool way."

Looking at Urahara Kisuke's back, Tenpeng shook her head with some emotion. This was her first time parting with an acquaintance, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

Compared with Tianpeng, Erlang seemed much more relaxed and unrestrained, and curled his lips in disgust.

"Wouldn't it be better for him to be more relaxed? If his face looked tearful, it would be too painful for the eyes."

"That's true. It's better to say goodbye with a smile."

Imagining the tearful look in Urahara Kisuke's eyes, Tianpeng's worries suddenly disappeared. He burst out laughing and nodded in agreement. After laughing for a long while, he turned to look at the silent Asido.

"Ashido, I haven't turned off the black cavity yet. Aren't you going to go with Urahara?"

Asido didn't expect the topic to suddenly turn to himself. He was stunned for a moment and nodded firmly.

"Well, I'm not leaving."

Looking at Asido's stubborn look, Jilang admired him in his heart, but he curled his lips with disgust on his face.

"Tsk, you really are not afraid of death. Maybe that monster will come to your door again in a couple of days. Be careful or you will be crushed to death by its spiritual pressure."

"I'm not afraid."

Asido's expression remained unchanged. The spiritual pressure of the monster did make him feel terrified, but he had already made up his mind that even if he died, he would die in the Hueco Mundo. As long as he could kill even one more man-eating evil Hollow before he died, he would not have lost out.

"Okay, okay, whatever you want. Gu Shi, should we move again?"

Jiro's mouth corners curled up unconsciously. Compared to a rational and intelligent person like Urahara Kisuke, he really preferred a stubborn fool like Asido. In order to avoid his happiness being seen, he quickly changed the subject and asked Gu Shi for his opinion.

Gu Shi nodded decisively without any hesitation.

"Of course we have to move. Let's temporarily leave the Great Void Forest and live in the surface desert for a while."

Whether it was to avoid being visited by Stark again, or to prevent Urahara Kisuke from sending back information and the Soul Society's top brass from having a sudden brainwave and setting up an expedition to Hueco Mundo, which would then affect everyone involved, Gu Shi did not plan to stay in this dangerous place for long.

"…Uh, are we going to the surface desert? We'll definitely be hungry then, right?"

Tianpeng had no objection to the transfer. She also wanted to get away from that horrible monster as soon as possible, but the destination of the transfer made her hesitant.

All the Killians in Hueco Mundo are basically concentrated in the Greater Hollow Forest. Only a few Minor Hollows are active in the surface desert. If they leave the Greater Hollow Forest, with the Killians' size and appetite, it would be a problem for them to fill their stomachs, not to mention that there are four Killians acting together, so their demand for food will definitely be even greater.

Gu Shi certainly did not ignore the problem that Tianpeng was worried about. It was just that Stark had taken away the formula for the Degraded Hougyoku and had probably already started making it. If Stark really made the Degraded Hougyoku and planned to use that thing to complete the Hollow, who knows what would happen.

In various martial arts and fantasy novels, when there is such a "breakthrough in realm and life leap", it is inevitable that phenomena such as "momentum and pressure temporarily out of control and spread" will occur.

Although this is supposed to be a plot just to highlight the character's strength, it does make sense if you think about it. After all, after a breakthrough, the power suddenly expands and changes, so it's not surprising that it can't be controlled.

If Stark's spiritual pressure spread out of control when he transformed into an Arrancar, if you continue to stay in the Great Hollow Forest, you will probably be killed by his spiritual pressure.

After all, he is the strongest in the Hueco Mundo. God knows how large an area his spiritual pressure can cover when he loses control. Even if his spiritual pressure can cover the entire Hollow Forest, Gu Shi would not be surprised.

Therefore, as long as you stay in the Great Hollow Forest, you may be affected by Stark's spiritual pressure, so you must run farther away.

If possible, Gu Shi wished he could hide directly in the real world, but unfortunately, the black cavity opened by Tianpeng was too small, and Killian, who was over 30 meters tall, couldn't squeeze in at all.

Therefore, we can only hide in the surface desert for the time being.

"It doesn't matter. The reason why the Great Void eats is to absorb the spiritual energy needed for evolution. Even if it doesn't eat for a long time, it won't starve to death. It's just that the speed of evolution will be slower."

Gu Shi didn't intend to tell them about the Arrancar right now, so he didn't explain his intentions. He just said a few words to comfort them and dispel their concerns.

"Don't worry, we are not going to settle down in the surface desert. Just think of it as a place to rest and have fun. After about one, no, two months, we can go back to the Great Void Forest."

It only takes Tianpeng a few hours to refine a batch of pills. After Stark learned Tianpeng's alchemy method, even if he had to practice through trial and error, a month should be enough for him to produce a finished product.

By then, no matter whether what he has practiced can help Stark complete the Arrancar or not, he should be able to get results in a month.

Therefore, there should be no problem returning to the Great Void Forest in two months.

When she heard that they would only be going to the surface desert for two months, Tianpeng was obviously relieved. When she heard Gu Shi say that they would be going to the surface desert for "a while", she thought they would have to leave the Great Void Forest for decades. If it was only two months, compared with the lifespan and evolution cycle of the Great Void, this period of time was indeed not worth mentioning.

The difference in the two sides' understanding of "a period of time" is the proof that Gu Shi has not yet fully adapted to his identity. He still retains the concept of time as a human being and a short-lived species. He is very particular about time and feels that two months is already a long time.

After all, the human body is constantly aging after adulthood, and it naturally becomes sensitive to the passage of time.

But it's different for the Hollows. Their bodies may not experience any noticeable changes for dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of years. The desolate environment of the Hueco Mundo has remained unchanged for thousands of years. Therefore, the Hollows are "insensitive" to the passage of time.

It is precisely because of this "insensitivity" that the spirit of the Daxu does not age easily like humans. Many Daxu who have lived for hundreds of years can still be as full of violent and frenzied vitality as young people.

Tianpeng had no worries. Erlang unconditionally supported Gu Shi's decision. Big Rabbit's opinion was not important. The few of them easily reached a consensus and began to look for a passage to the surface desert.

There are actually quite a lot of such passages. After all, there are many small voids in the Great Void Forest that are as annoying as ants. Many of them came down from the surface desert. Except for unlucky guys like Gu Shijiro who fell directly, the other small voids basically walked down.

It didn't take long for the four of them to find the first passage, but the passage was too narrow. Xiaoxu had no problem walking through it, but for Killian to pass through it, that was pure dreaming.

After a long search, the four finally found a barely usable passage. They asked the big rabbit, an expert in digging holes, to widen the passage a bit, and finally they reached the surface desert.

At the same time, somewhere in the Great Void Forest, Stark finally completed his first "alchemy".
