Death God: Sunny and Cheerful Boy

"Hmm? In the file, I did see that among Ms. Randao's crimes, she conducted experiments privately and failed, which led to the large-scale destruction of Seireitei... Could it be true?"

Yilong's tone was as if he had completely believed that this was a fabricated charge.

Lan Dao also spoke out at this time: "Yes, there was indeed a huge explosion that year, but the power of the explosion did not come directly from the Soul Hunter, who was still very weak at the time, but from... the Chapter of Purification!"

Chapter of Purification!

Yilong memorized this word silently in his heart.

If this scene happened in a film or TV series, the audience would probably be beating their chests and stamping their feet over the fact that "the villain had obtained important information."

However, Lan Dao did not explain further afterwards. It was obvious that she was still on guard. She might not be on guard against Yi Long specifically, but this thing was of great importance, and she would not easily reveal any information...

"I understand. If it's because of Soul Hunting, I'll go back to Seireitei with you... and then I want to meet with the Gold Seal Noble Council." Lan Dao seemed to have made up his mind.

However, Yilong had to say at this time: "No, Ms. Randao... You may not know enough about the situation of the Soul Society now. Now the responsibility of guarding the Soul Hunters and even protecting the Soul Society is almost entirely the responsibility of the 13th Squadron. It is also the 46th Chamber that can control the 13th Squadron at ordinary times."

Lan Dao was stunned when she heard this - although she had met some people and heard some names that were feared by the Soul Society over the years, but... she was still very surprised by this kind of institutional change.

In her heart, the Seireitei or the Kinsin Noble Council had the final say - they were the ones who said they wanted to experiment, they were the ones who said they had conducted experiments privately, they were the ones who said they wanted to recruit the "Soul Hunters", and they were the ones who tore up the terms and exiled themselves...

"And now that Captain-General Yamamoto has decided to defend against the enemy in Soul Society, I'm afraid he won't change his mind..." Yilong said with regret, first gave Ran Dao a hint, and then took her back to Soul Society.

131. Chapter 131 I don’t need to pretend to be a gentleman anymore

131.

2023-09-11

The Ninth Division does have certain powers to reduce sentences for exile.

If a large number of sentences are to be reduced, the approval of the 46th Chamber is still required. If it is only 0.2%, Yilong can decide on his own...

After Lan Dao was brought back to Seireitei by Yilong, he felt that things and people had changed a lot - the architectural style of Seireitei had not changed much, but the clothing had changed a lot.

The main reason is that there are many more Shinigami wearing "Shiba Suit"...

After all, it has only been three hundred years since Shutara Senjumaru invented the "Standard Death Hatchet".

Before this, there was only the "Death Hegemony Suit" formed by personal spiritual pressure, and it had nothing to do with the Death Gods below the sixth level of spiritual power.

At the same time, the "retreat" of the power of the nobility also surprised Lan Dao...

It is true that the nobles can still act arrogantly in Soul Society today. Even the power of the nobles is so great that it is enough to shock modern people who have just died in Soul Society.

But everything has comparison...

Compared to a thousand years ago, the power of the nobles, especially the great nobles, has obviously shrunk.

Even now, many small nobles who have seats in the forty-six chambers cannot be considered nobles at all in Lan Dao's view, but are just generals who are trained to be warriors.

Compared with thousands of years ago, the concept of nobility has become obviously generalized.

After understanding the basic situation of Soul Society, she basically understood that what Shihouin Ichiryu said was true.

but……

When she learned more about it, she was no longer willing to talk to Shifengyuan Yilong about anything related to "Soul Hunting", let alone the [Purification Chapter]!

However, Yilong's short-term goal has now been achieved...

"Well, I believe Ms. Lan Dao's sentence reduction will be approved soon. However, according to the procedure, this period is an observation period. Ms. Lan Dao will live in the 9th Squad for now... Female Earth Bat, Wei Yueyan, I'm counting on you." Yilong directly arranged two masked female death gods to monitor Lan Dao.

Lan Dao glared at Shifengyuan Yilong angrily at this time: "Who are you? What are your intentions?"

"I'm just a sunny and cheerful boy who wants to help Soul Hunters... Some uncles in flowery robes must have misunderstandings about me. You can listen to what Wei Yueyan says about me." Yilong smiled slightly.

That’s right, the reason why the clues on Lan Dao were lost so quickly was because Yilong was ambushed by Kyoraku!

Although Ichiryu and Kyoraku share the same interests when it comes to dealing with Ise Shinkuro, Kyoraku will not sit idly by when it comes to Ichiryu's other plans, especially those against the captain-general.

Yilong originally wanted to establish his own majestic image and increase Lan Dao's trust in him, but Kyoraku, who was discovered about this, took advantage of the situation and asked someone to reveal his secrets in front of Lan Dao, especially the matter of the "Strategy Meeting against Soul Hunter".

This directly raised Lan Dao's vigilance against Yilong...

Fortunately, Yilong discovered it in time - in this case, Yilong didn't need to pretend to be a gentleman anymore and directly put Lan Dao under house arrest!

At least this way, there is no need to worry about what Lan Dao is doing in private, and... other people cannot learn anything about "Soul Hunting" from Lan Dao.

However, before the misunderstanding is resolved, Lan Dao will obviously not tell Yi Long anything else...

Unless Tamamo Su comes to her, there might be hope.

When Yilong first met Lan Dao, before she woke up, he was already convinced that Lan Dao cared about "Soul Hunting" more than he thought!

Although the "Soul Hunters" were characterized as the product of a failed experiment, as their creator, Lan Dao probably felt like he was looking at his own child.

Not only did he completely anger the nobles by pleading for the Soul Hunter, and was exiled to this day, but...

If Yilong guessed correctly, Lan Dao should have given something very important to Tamamo Su!

Because her appearance is more than 90% similar to Tamamo Su, if it weren't for her completely different temperament and the fact that she wears glasses, Lian Yilong might have made a mistake for her.

There must be a reason for such similar appearances. In addition, Lan Dao's spiritual pressure is in an incomplete state. Yilong suspects that... when she created the "Soul Hunters", she gave part of her soul to the "Soul Hunter" tribe, and this part of her soul was later inherited by Tamamo Su!

even……

Considering the origin of "Soul Hunter" and some special features of Tamamo Su, Yilong suspected...

As the creator of "Soul Hunter", it is possible that Lando is a "genuine" "Fullbringer" himself... No, in Bleach, he should be considered a "God-cheater".

Just like the "Fullbringers" among humans, for the God-hackers, the "Soul King Fragments" exist together with the "soul".

To separate the power of the Soul King, a part of his soul must be separated, which means that Rando's soul is no longer complete - just like Rangiku whose "Soul King's fingertips" were taken away!

Ichiryū suspected that the reason why Rangiku was not as sleepy as Randao was that Gin Ichimaru had helped her make up for some of her defects in some way.

At the same time, although Tamamo Su still has some defects of "Soul Hunter", to a certain extent, he is already a true "Fullbringer"!

As for the previously mentioned [Purification Chapter], Lan Dao will definitely not reveal more here. …

So Yilong quietly came to Awanmen's house - after three months, he took his own "secret passage" again.

"Why are you being so sneaky? If it's something you can't say, then don't say it." After Nayura noticed Yilong coming, she came into the room alone, but with a businesslike tone.

"No, there's nothing wrong with talking about it. The reason I came here secretly is that I just didn't want other people to know... I want to go to the Great Spiritual Book Corridor." Yilong was very calm.

Nayura glared at Yilong speechlessly - was this not considered "unable to speak"?

The Great Spiritual Book Corridor is theoretically not open to outsiders at all!

This is a blatant attempt to get Nayula, the "librarian", to open a backdoor...

"You also understand the mechanism of the Great Spirit Book Corridor. Are you sure you want to go in and look for things that happened a thousand years ago?" Nayura asked directly.

Nayura has her own thoughts on the nobility and the system of Seireitei, and she is smart and understands what Ichiryu wants to do.

"Don't worry, I won't look for anything too obscure. I already know the most important names."

Yilong is very familiar with the function of the "Great Spiritual Book Corridor"...

The older, more vague, and more influential the thing you are looking for, the stronger the backlash will be. However, if you are just looking for information about an object or a person, the difficulty can be greatly reduced as long as you know the "name" - a name has a very strong "power", just like [Shikai], [Bankai], and even [Kiren], all rely on the "name" to activate.

If Yilong had directly searched for "The Great Explosion of Seireitei a Thousand Years Ago", the backlash would have been very serious, but searching for [Pure World Chapter] would have been much easier...

Nayula blamed Yilong and said "this won't happen again", but she still took Yilong to the underground!

The Awanmen clan, as the guardians and managers of the "Great Spiritual Book Corridor", have a passage leading to the "Great Spiritual Book Corridor" underground.

However, in fact, the location of the "Great Spiritual Book Corridor" is not in the basement of the Amanmon family, but in the same area as the "Underground Meeting Hall" where the "Mao Forty-sixth Room" is located.

There are three ways to get there!

The first is to enter from the office area of ​​the "Main Forty-sixth Room", which is the most direct and the only legal way for outsiders to enter, and requires the approval of the Forty-sixth Room; the second is that the successive heads of the Amanmon family, that is, the [Librarian] of the "Great Spiritual Book Corridor", can enter from the underground passage of their own house, and in theory cannot bring outsiders; the third is the Tsunayashiro family, which also controls this way in...

After all, the original "Great Spiritual Book Corridor" was created by the ancestors of the Tsunayashiro family.

Theoretically, the [Librarian] of Awanmen has no right to bring outsiders in, but in reality... not to mention that Nayura is now the head of the family and the [Librarian], even when she was just a young lady before, she brought Yilong in!

After all, these rules were made to protect the nobles, not to restrict them. Many of the rules targeting the nobles have no effective supervision and checks and balances.

Although Nayura is ambitious, she is not rigid. Her goal is to change the nobles of Seireitei, rather than relying on being a role model of the nobility to restrain other nobles like Byakuya Kuchiki.

Soon the two came to a big door at the end of the underground passage. Nayura used the ancestral key, the "ritual" she had learned long ago, and a drop of Amanmon's blood to open the door.

"You know the restrictions of the Great Spiritual Book Corridor. When you see something you shouldn't see, exit immediately and pull this hard three times." Nayula said, and took out a white silk ribbon covered with "ghostly symbols" and handed one end to Yilong.

Yilong took it and tied it around his waist, and said puzzledly: "It seems that those guys like Tsunayashiro don't have so many restrictions when using the Great Spiritual Book Corridor, and it's not so dangerous."

"Who knows? After all, it was the ancestor of the Tsunamiyo family who built this place. Maybe there is some back door." Nayura still held the other end of the ribbon in her hand.

Afterwards, Yilong entered the glowing door, and the inside could not be seen from the outside.

After a flash of white in front of his eyes, Yilong saw layers of large circular libraries. He came in from the middle layer, and looking down from the hole in the middle, he saw darkness that was bottomless. He raised his head and looked up, but the white light at high places was so blinding that he could no longer see. This "library" seemed to have infinite space!

What I need to do next is not to look for books one by one...

If you open the book here, you will also "see" anything that happened in the "Soul Society" at random times and random places, but... it is too random and there is no pattern to find, so no one can finish reading it.

Yilong also understood the correct way to use it - he randomly found a bookshelf, stretched out his hand, closed his eyes, and then...

"Pure World Chapter." Yilong cleared his mind of distracting thoughts and only kept the name of the thing he was looking for.

When Yilong's hand reached out and touched the book, Yilong, who had originally closed his eyes, felt a piece of "content" flooding into his mind.

The scenes when Lan Dao developed the [Purification Chapter] emerged in Yilong's mind.

In the busy scene of the "Seireitei Research Institute", Yilong also understood what the [Pure World Chapter] was...

Essentially, it is a tool that communicates with energy outside the "Three Realms" - in the records of Soul Society, there was once only hell and chaos in the world. In chaos, there was no progress or retreat, everything had no beginning and no end, and was always in stagnation. It was His Majesty the Soul King who divided chaos into the "Three Realms", and from then on, the soul particles and the instrument particles had a cycle...

Lan Dao's [Purification Chapter] draws power from the chaos outside the "Three Realms", which is actually drawing power from outside the Wall of Broken Realm. However, at the last stage, the [Purification Chapter] had a problem, which is also the origin of the explosion...

Until the end, Lan Dao didn't understand why this "error" occurred, but Yilong saw some clues from the "records" from the perspective of God.

“Hmm?” Yilong discovered that the failure was not Lando’s problem, but that the [Purification Chapter] encountered some kind of interference when it passed through Soul Society and communicated with the “outside world”.

"What is this shadow? Why does it exist in Soul Society?"

When Yilong had this doubt, he already thought something was wrong, but this was just an instinctive desire for knowledge in his mind, and by the time he reacted he was already a step too slow!

After this thought came to mind, Yilong saw something he shouldn't have seen...

At the same time, in the Invisible Empire, Yhwach, whose strength had not yet fully recovered, seemed to have sensed something, and his eyes passed through the Shadow Realm...

When the experiment on Landao failed, the war between Seireitei and the Quincy was still in its early stages, but... Yhwach, who had sensed something, had ordered his men to create a shadow space in the empty Seireitei.

When this space was first built, it was detonated by a huge explosion, and all the progress was destroyed...

At that time, Youhabach thought that the gods of death had discovered something, but later found out that it was not the case!

132. Chapter 132: Former Allies

132.

2023-09-11

Nayula pulled the family's secret "awakening rope". Before she felt Yilong pulling it, the secret pattern on it spread from inside the door to outside in a blood-red color!

Seeing this, Nayora's eyes narrowed, and then without hesitation, she put on the "wake-up rope" on one shoulder, and ran backwards without caring about any noble manners...

After a few steps, the "awake rope" began to struggle, but it only slowed down Nayula's short legs, and she still managed to drag out the "heavy object" behind her - needless to say, it was Yilong who had just walked in confidently!

At this time, Yilong's body had many marks that seemed to be cracked and healed, and he had fainted.

Just now, Yilong saw the principle of how the [Purification Chapter] was made in the "Great Spirit Book Corridor", and also saw... the reason why it caused the explosion!

There is nothing wrong with the experiment on the Purification Chapter itself, but... the Purification Chapter, which should normally absorb power from outside the Soul Society, accidentally touched the mysterious space lurking in the shadows of the Seireitei.

Under this disturbance, the "Shadow Realm" in the shadow and the "Seireitei" on the surface interfered violently. Coupled with the disturbance of chaotic power, the two were unable to replace each other, but an entangled explosion occurred!

It's not that the spiritual pressure of this thing is enough to blow up one-tenth of the Soul Society, but that this "shadow field" at that time was spread over one-tenth of the shadow of the Soul Society.

The reason why there is a "shadow space" here is exactly why Yilong is suffering the backlash now.

Although it was just a glimpse, Yilong did see it—an "alien" with many pupils...

That is not a real image, but a fragment of image that can only be seen due to strong interference.

Generally speaking, only things related to the "Soul King" would be so strongly disturbed, and when Yilong saw the image, he instantly associated it with a person in his mind, who was also the person who had the closest relationship with the Soul King at this stage - Yhwach!
