Death God: Sunny and Cheerful Boy

If Shifengyuan had punched through the ice wall directly, or melted the ice with some ability, Hitsugaya would at most be surprised at his strength, instead of being so confused like he is now...

In Hitsugaya's opinion, Shihouin didn't seem to have done anything, but... his own [Dai Crimson Lotus Hyorinmaru] suddenly couldn't freeze!

Is it...

"The ability of your Zanpakuto is to produce an invisible deterrent and render other abilities ineffective?" Hitsugaya looked at Ichiryu solemnly.

"Well, submit to the throne of the King of Sky!" Yilong curled his lips and said bluntly.

Of course, that’s not the case at all, it’s just…

The way Yilong uses this power, coupled with the name "Throne of the Sky", can indeed easily lead to misunderstandings in this regard.

But in fact, the "Throne of the Sky" is neither the "Throne without People" nor the "Throne in the Sky", but refers to... the place where Ichiryu was when he realized this ability - the scene of the "Battle of the Sky"!

2023-09-16

Thousands of years ago, the Star Sky Emperor accomplished the great feat of unifying the world - and at that time he did not use "Soul Hunters" as his armed force, but completed this feat entirely according to the rules of the human dynasty. From then on, except for some hard-to-reach places at the ends of the earth, mountains and deserts, and the deep sea... there are only big stars in the world.

However, the good times didn’t last long…

After the Quincy's total defeat in Soul Society, the Seireitei instigated various warlords and old nobles from their home countries to launch a rebellion behind the scenes.

Looking back now, Yilong did not regret forming an alliance with Yhwach and taking a gamble. After all, unifying the world was not his ultimate goal.

Therefore, there is nothing much to say about being targeted by "Seireitei". If there is anything to say, it's just that... You are such a jerk, Yhwach!

At that time, the world had just been unified for a short time, and the remaining forces and local officials were still unstable. Because of the intervention of the "Seireitei", the whole world rebelled for a while.

And the "Seireitei" is not as particular as the Star Emperor before...

Important generals of Daxing died "suddenly and inexplicably" one after another, and in less than a year, all the heroes gathered in Daxing's capital - Siye.

The coalition forces are mixed, and there is no undisputed leader. Seeing that the big star is about to be destroyed, even with the "Seireitei" leading from behind, it is difficult to choose someone who can win the support of the people because the Shinigami are not deeply involved.

So the strongest leaders of the rebels swore an oath to the heavens, agreeing to divide the country after destroying the big star, and led the "heroes" to worship the vacant throne to show that no one had the intention to annex the other families...

After that, they were defeated in a battle and the big star was destroyed.

This battle was the "Battle of Shino", also known as the "Battle of Karakura", and this place was therefore renamed "Karakura", and later generations divided it into "Karakura Town"!

Because it was one of the most tragic battlefields in history, with millions of casualties on both sides, it later became one of the nine most spiritual places.

Few of today's death gods know about this...

Firstly, after defeating Yhwach, they celebrated and cleaned up the "present world" at the same time, which was just a piece of cake;

Secondly... too much time has passed, and most of the Soul Society nobles who led this matter have disappeared. The elders of the Gotei 13, including old man Yamamoto, did not participate in this matter at all. After all, they were just "swords" at the time and had no right to get involved in such matters.

but……

Yilong witnessed all of this firsthand thousands of years ago—sitting on his own throne!

"The Throne of the Sky... So it's the Throne of the Sky?" Seeing that Ichiryu agreed with his guess, Hitsugaya further speculated why this throne was not "empty".

nonsense!

Of course not empty. This was not the "empty throne" originally, but the throne that Yilong sat on when he watched those people worshiping the empty throne. The reason why it was called the [Empty Throne] was because the origin of this ability was everything that Yilong was witnessing at this moment.

"No, it's not the sky, but...the sky far higher than that!" Yilong talked nonsense.

But it wasn't entirely a lie, because Yilong was looking at the "Alliance of the Karakura" from a high platform in the city, and he was indeed sitting higher than the "Karakura".

The Xingtian Emperor at that time witnessed his own defeat, and also witnessed after his death that the "Empty Seat Alliance" was nothing but a farce.

In fact, before his seventh day had passed, the "Karakusa Alliance" had already broken up. After the destruction of the big star, the Death Gods left, and the mobs from all walks of life began to eagerly swallow up and kill each other in Shiye.

On the seventh day, Yilong successfully became a hollow. He used the large amount of "Zheng" left by the rebels to have a full meal, and evolved into a large hollow with the ability to open the black cavity on the spot. Don't be too nourishing...

As for the soldiers of Daxing, they all wore soul-soothing amulets during wars. Even if they died on the battlefield, they would not remain in a "whole" form. After all, Daxing at that time was very knowledgeable about "death".

Even though the Death Gods at that time secretly made trouble, which made Yilong very angry, they ultimately did not turn the soldiers into earthbound spirits and leave them in the "real world".

After becoming a Great Void, Yilong did not swallow up the various princes to vent his anger...

Yilong swallowed those "whole" things because he needed strength at that time, and not for the purpose of "venting his anger".

Although it was the "Seireitei" behind the scenes that allowed them to be united, but... if they lost, they lost under the rules of the human emperor. If they relied on the rules of the void to swallow them up, Daxing would not be able to turn the tide...

Because in just one year, Daxing has gone from being the "savior" to the "source of all evil."

Yilong thought that there was no point in "venting his anger", so he escaped into the Hueco Mundo.

Once again, I began to evolve gradually under the "virtual rules"...

In the 9th Squad barracks in Seireitei, Hitsugaya was still trying to attack Ichiryu, but unfortunately all attempts failed. At this time, Ichiryu hadn't even really "made a move"!

At some point, Hitsugaya no longer felt that his attack could hurt Ichiryu, and the purpose of launching the attack... was to analyze Ichiryu's abilities.

"The king's deterrence? But when have you ever been king? Was it in Hueco Mundo?" Hitsugaya questioned Ichiryu while dodging and stopping his ice wings from shattering.

At the same time, Hitsugaya was also carefully estimating the range of Ichiryu's ability. It seemed that as long as he was far enough away, he would not be affected. Otherwise, even the ice on his body would break. Really... It felt like a "king" with majesty that could not be offended...

"Oh? You still want to frame me as a Hollow? Do you know Ichigo? He's the child of me and the Quincy..." Ichiryu naturally heard the hidden meaning in Hitsugaya's words. He was doubting my claim to be the king of Hueco Mundo... So he used an irrefutable reason to prove that he was not a Hollow.

Then Yilong explained: "Do you know what the real 'king' is? You have to be the king in your own heart. The one who dominates your own heart is the real king!"

Hitsugaya was stunned when he heard this, and for a moment he seemed to be infected by the heroism and philosophy in Ichiryu's words...

Of course, in fact, not a single word Yilong said was true, and this was not "the majesty of the king" at all.

As mentioned before, Yilong was able to accept his failure, as it was not just the first or second time he had failed, but he still felt resentful about the charges brought against him by the bandits.

Of course, this resentment does not mean to keep complaining like a nagging woman, but to humbly learn from the winner...

Therefore, after becoming hollow this time, Ichilong gradually developed the ability of the [Throne of the Sky]!

Yilong's fundamental ability is essentially "controlling spirit particles" - it is not any attribute or any other rules. To a certain extent, it is also very "pure"... This is also determined by Yilong's true origin.

In the present world, at the instrument level, humans have discovered that instrument particles are moving in disorder at the microscopic level.

Even if you observe one of its particles when an apple falls from a tree, you will find that during this period, there are times when it is moving upwards, left, right, and in all directions. However, most of the time, it appears to be moving downward due to gravity, so on a macro scale, the overall appearance is falling.

An apple consists of countless particles, which means that at every moment, a very small number of particles are performing different movements. This is an inherent property of particle particles.

The same goes for Lingzi!

When the big star perished, Yilong completely understood that among social animals, the minority can use their influence to make themselves the mainstream, drive the majority, and then become the real majority. This is only related to "influence" and does not require really conforming to the majority...

Lingzi...will it be the same?

Because of this, during the exploration, Ichiryu's [Throne of the Sky] was formed, and even... indirectly changed Ichiryu's ultimate goal, becoming the fuse that prevented him from working together with Yhwach.

In essence, this ability does not have any grandeur or power. Its only function is to act on the "minority among the spirit particles", strengthen their influence, drive other spirit particles, and then cause the macroscopic manifestation to "collapse" in a way that violates all inherent theories.

such as……

The reason why a dragon can easily float in the air even though it has no wings and does not seem to have the ability to fly is because it constantly strengthens the very small number of spirit particles that defy gravity and move upwards, allowing these minorities to infect the majority, thereby causing the body to move upwards.

Similarly, the [Great Crimson Lotus Hyorinmaru] that Hitsugaya was using in front of Ichiryuu did have pure ice power and could form ice crystals out of thin air...

The ice crystals formed by leptons are the same as the ice crystals formed by instrument particles in the world today. They are all the power of "stillness". When the low temperature makes the particles "still", they form solids.

but……

"Still" is relative, especially at the microscopic level. During this period, there will always be some leptons "moving", but the number is too small in comparison, so it does not affect the macroscopic manifestation of ice.

However, under the influence of the [Throne of the Sky], this "minority" that is completely different from the macro expression is given a great influence, which in turn causes its "chaotic" movement to spread...

In terms of macro performance, Hitsugaya's "ice" begins to "unfreeze" and will inexplicably shatter.

Because this was because Ichiryu "strengthened" the very small number of spirit particles in his own ice, and did not forcibly attack or melt it, everything was caused by the collapse of [Dai Guren Hyorinmaru] on its own, so Hitsugaya had no idea what was happening - as for the strengthening of the very small number of spirit particles at the microscopic level, it was beyond his perception.

Without extremely strong microscopic insight, you wouldn't be able to detect what Lian Yilong did.

Hitsugaya fell into this dilemma. With Ichiryu lying, he could only infer from the name "Throne of the Sky" that this was an ability to "influence the performance of other abilities" through "deterrence" - the "throne" did have the image of "majesty".

Ichiryu also took advantage of the situation and indirectly admitted it - whether Hitsugaya believed it or not, there was no way to find out more now...

This is exactly the best way to "conceal one's abilities" - to distort the "real name", "ability performance" and "false working principle" together!

Just like Aizen described [Kyoka Suigetsu] as a "flowing water-type Zanpakutō that utilizes the refraction of light." The illusion effect seems to fit the description, and the name [Kyoka Suigetsu] also makes sense if you insist on saying it is "flowing water-type," so for a long time it has not been suspected, let alone guarded against.

At this time, Yilong also played tricks on Hitsugaya with the same or even slightly lower spiritual pressure, and even retained some distance...

If Hitsugaya hadn't deliberately let Ichigo go, he would not have been able to protect Ichigo's escape!

"But... your [Throne of the Sky] seems to be just 'majesty', right? As long as it doesn't get within 50 meters of you, it won't be affected at all, and you can't attack directly!" Hitsugaya said firmly at this time.

----

Dongdong: Well, now do you think that it is very reasonable to name the protagonist "Yilong"? This is also the inspiration for giving the protagonist this name at the beginning. When the function of the "Fatian Hexagonal Column" is to control the spirit particles, it should actually be associated with...

Chapter 149: Hitsugaya Intends to Destroy Soul Society

2023-09-18

"But... your [Throne of the Sky] seems to be just 'majesty', right? As long as it doesn't get within 50 meters of you, it will not be affected at all, and you can't attack directly!" Hitsugaya said firmly at this time.

After several attempts, Hitsugaya thought he had roughly figured out the range of Shifengyuan's [Throne of the Sky]. While talking nonsense from fifty meters away, he concentrated his spiritual pressure...

Yilong's face changed when he heard this... Life is like a play, it all depends on your acting skills.

At this moment, Hitsugaya raised his arm with the ice dragon head high, and the blade in the dragon head pointed straight to the sky...

The next moment, Hitsugaya shouted loudly - when Hitsugaya used his special move [Bankai], he liked to shout loudly to increase his momentum.

However, Yilong was still fine at this time. Rangiku, who was fighting with two masked officers below, was the first to change his expression: "Captain! Wait..."

Rangiku, who often watches Hitsugaya practice, already knows what he wants to do!

Yilong soon understood what was happening. He felt the surroundings were getting colder and colder. He soon realized that Hitsugaya was constantly condensing the power of "ice" in the spherical space about fifty or sixty meters around him.

Even the origin of the space around Yilong was affected to some extent...

If old man Yamamoto, who has reached the "extreme state", stimulates his power in this way, the entire "Soul Society" will be quickly "burned", the spirit particle structure will begin to collapse, the water veins will dry up, and the geothermal heat will be restless... If the opponent cannot be resolved in time and the war cannot be stopped, the "Soul Society" will be destroyed by old man Yamamoto first!

This is the power of "breaking the boundary" - the restriction on the power of the god of death and the void is essentially the protection of the world. Any power of "breaking the boundary level" has the potential to destroy the world.

Of course, Hitsugaya is far from reaching this level. He only caused the space around Ichiryu to begin to freeze similar to "breaking the boundary". For the Soul Society, if Yamamoto used his ultimate skill, it would be the equivalent of "being put into an oven with the heating switch turned on and it won't last long", while Hitsugaya's words would be the equivalent of "being bitten by a mosquito with a body temperature of minus ten degrees Celsius".

In essence, they are both "harm", but the degree is incomparable.

If the opponent was anyone else, Hitsugaya's actions would be a thankless task - this effect would occur when Yamamoto was fighting, and it was caused by the uncontrollable aftermath, which passively affected the entire Soul Society. In fact, this was not a cost-effective way of fighting. In terms of lethality alone, it was not as good as fighting honestly.

Otherwise, purely elemental abilities would not be "weak in the early stages" abilities.

However, Hitsugaya was helpless against Ichiryu at this point - all of his abilities seemed to be affected and had no effect on Shihouin.

And Hitsugaya also understood that just because Shihouin had not taken the initiative to attack before, it didn't mean he couldn't take the initiative to attack!

Therefore, Hitsugaya changed his mind and wanted to concentrate his spiritual pressure to freeze the "space" around Shifengyuan, thereby causing damage to it.

Now Hitsugaya believes that the direct range of his spiritual pressure is beyond the effect of Shihouin's ability. The impact on Shihouin himself is caused by the collapse of "Soul Society" itself, so it is naturally impossible to stop it.

As for how far he could go, Hitsugaya couldn't say, after all, he had never fought like this before.

At this moment, the hair all over his body stood up, and his pupils emitted a faint blue light. It was obvious that his spiritual pressure had completely erupted.

Yilong stretched out his hand and felt the air.

"The collapse of Soul Society?" Yilong pondered in his heart.

First of all, he could have stopped this collapse completely. If it was old man Yamamoto who was responsible, and the entire Soul Society began to collapse, then Ichiryu, who had not reached the "extreme", would be powerless. However, it was a small-scale case like Hitsugaya, and it was easy for Ichiryu to deal with it. However, this seemed to be beyond the concept of "King's Pressure";

Secondly, Ichiryu can "teleport" in front of Hitsugaya - his method of exerting a small-scale boundary-breaking force around himself is based on Ichiryu's "limited range of ability" and "inconvenient movement". In fact, not only is Ichiryu's movement not affected, but it can also be faster. However... Ichiryu also doesn't want to expose this point. Staying still is like a king;

Finally, that is...

The next moment, I saw Ichiryu smiling at Hitsugaya who was still roaring and releasing his spiritual pressure, and snapped his fingers at the same time...
