The shadow space was like a shattered mirror or glass, broken into pieces.

The dim golden light pierced through the shadow space without stopping, passing through the laboratory and then through the ground.

On the surface, two members of the Covert Surveillance Team cautiously observed the surroundings. If they detected anything amiss, they would notify the crew who had infiltrated the underground experimental base to evacuate immediately to prevent them from being trapped inside.

Suddenly, the two Shinigami from the Onmitsukido Squad sensed a terrifying spiritual pressure emanating from underground.

"Isn't there a killing intent stone blocking the way down there? How can such terrifying spiritual pressure fluctuations be emanating from here?" the two wondered.

But the next moment, a dim golden stream of light burst forth from the ground, unseen by them.

After passing through the ground, the stream of light entered the lake on the surface.

sizzle--

The two noticed the movement on the lake, quickly teleported into the air, and then saw—

The lake began to boil, rapidly releasing countless amounts of water vapor, and the water level was dropping quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the lake, covering an area of ​​thousands of square kilometers, was mostly evaporated by the terrifying temperature of the flowing light.

A dim golden streak of light was revealed to the two Secret Service Grim Reapers in the air.

"What was that light?!" The two Death Gods were utterly shocked.

The scene before my eyes was truly terrifying; such a large lake had evaporated by more than half in the blink of an eye!

The dim golden light flowed across the lake without stopping.

Along the way, everything that blocked the path of the light, including trees, rocks, and even mountains, was destroyed and pierced by the light.

The dim golden light traveled an unknown distance before dissipating shortly afterward.

The two covert mobile unit grim reapers stood in the air for a long time, stunned, before finally remembering their duties.

One of the Grim Reapers immediately pulled out his communication device: "Vice Captain, we've detected something unusual here. We just saw a beam of light shoot out from underground. Are you all safe? What happened there? Aren't there killing intent stones protecting the area underground? How could this beam of light pierce through them?!"

The two Secret Service Grim Reapers had many questions, but what they found most unbelievable was that the beam of light had actually pierced through the killing intent stone that could isolate spiritual particles!

What they didn't know was that the stream of light released in July not only contained spiritual particles, but also had the effect of physical slashing. The killing intent stone was simply unable to withstand such an attack and was directly pierced by the stream of light.

Yoruichi Shihouin's voice came through the communication device, but she sounded somewhat confused: "I don't know the specifics, but this seems to be the sword technique my teacher used."

Because of the barrier of the shadow space, Yoruichi Shihouin had no idea what had just happened.

"Is this swordsmanship?!" The expression of Death, a member of the Covert Squad, became blank.

Chapter 210 The Opening of the Gates of Hell

underground base.

After the dim golden light dissipated, July felt a strong sense of emptiness surging through her spirit.

The Flowing Light he just used was a combination of three extremely explosive sword techniques—Lightning Blade, Crimson Tide, and Wind Chaser.

Its power was indeed very strong; Miyamoto Tetsuya was instantly killed before he could even regenerate.

However, the spiritual pressure consumption is also quite high. After his spiritual pressure reached the level of a captain, he had not experienced this feeling of emptiness caused by spiritual pressure consumption for a long time.

The side effects of using this sword technique are not only the consumption of spiritual pressure.

In July, her entire left hand lost sensation; she couldn't even feel pain anymore.

He glanced at his left hand; the flesh of his index and middle fingers had been completely carbonized and detached, leaving the bones of both fingers exposed to the air.

Besides the two fingers, the lower part of the left upper arm was also charred.

The power of "Wind Control and Thunder Burning" was too great, and my left hand was inevitably injured during the charging phase.

Fortunately, Miyamoto Tetsuya had already been killed by Liuguang, otherwise he would have had to consider hiding in the shadows and relying on the Soul-Gathering Pill to fight a protracted war, controlling the shadows to wear down Miyamoto Tetsuya.

In July, she took out the Spirit Pill and swallowed it, restoring her empty spiritual body.

After his spiritual pressure recovered somewhat, his "Return to the Path of Self-Healing" ability also took effect, and a faint glow of the Return to the Path of Self-Healing appeared on his charred left hand.

The injury to the left arm can be healed using the Returning to the Path technique, but the flesh and blood lost in the index and middle fingers cannot be restored solely by the Returning to the Path technique.

He will need to get some supplements after he gets back to help his fingers heal.

In July, I noticed that the skill descriptions on the panel had been updated:

【Wind Control and Thunder Burning - Blade Sealing Technique (Extreme): You have mastered all the sword techniques you have learned and forged your own path.】

July had already discovered that the skill points awarded by the system had a limit on proficiency level once it reached the highest level, and would not be able to be improved further.

Aside from the "Culinary Master" attribute's bonus to ultimate culinary skills, this is the only skill that has reached the ultimate level.

"Wind Control and Thunder Burning - Sword Sealing Technique" is not only applicable to the "Flowing Light" sword technique, but other sword-drawing techniques such as "Thousand Pieces Disarming" and "Instant Step Iai" can also be performed using the sword sealing technique.

call out--

Yoruichi Shihouin rushed over, about to ask about the streak of light, when he saw the horrific state of Nanatsu's left hand and was immediately horrified, "Master's hand?!"

"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious," July said gently.

"Let me help bandage her!" Yoruichi Shihouin thought that her teacher had difficulty bandaging with one hand, so she quickly took out a bandage from her tactical pouch.

"No need. The skin on this hand is carbonized, so it won't bleed. There's no need to bandage it." July shook her head gently.

Bandages are not very effective for this kind of injury; we need to treat it with endotracheal tubes first.

"So badly injured..." Yoruichi Shihouin's eyes were filled with worry as she saw the bones of two fingers on her left hand protruding.

"Don't worry, I'm using the Rejuvenation Healing Technique, and the lost flesh and blood will grow back." July touched Yoruichi Shihouin's head with her still-movable right hand, indicating that she didn't need to worry.

"It's good that you've recovered." Yoruichi Shihouin trusted her teacher's ability to respond and nodded, saying, "Is that Miyamoto Tetsuya that powerful? How could he injure you so badly?"

“Miyamoto Tetsuya seems to have modified his body, giving him extremely strong regenerative abilities. In this environment, it would be difficult to kill him in a short time using ordinary methods.” July paused and said, “The injury on my hand was caused by my own technique.”

"The move you used, teacher, was that beam of light just now? Was that 'Flowing Light'?" Yoruichi Shihouin asked.

As a disciple of Shikagatsu, she still managed to discern some clues from the dim golden light.

That powerful beam of light contained extreme sharpness. Of all the sword techniques in the Shikatori school, only Ryuko could reach such a distance.

“It is indeed ‘Flowing Light.’ It seems I haven’t forgotten what I taught you.” July chuckled. “This is ‘Flowing Light,’ a combination of the techniques of Raikiri, Akashio, and Chasing Wind.”

"Combining three sword techniques?!" Yoruichi Shihouin exclaimed in surprise. "That's incredibly difficult! I can't even use 'Raikiri: Flowing Light' properly yet."

Yoruichi Shihouin isn't quite proficient at using Ryuko, and can't yet use "Raikiri: Ryuko." However, she can compensate with the power of her Zanpakuto. When using Ryuko, she can unleash lightning power with her Zanpakuto, achieving an effect similar to "Raikiri: Ryuko."

"Who told you not to practice your sword properly?" July reached out and gently tapped Yoruichi Shihouin's forehead. "Now you're envious, aren't you?"

Since learning Shunko, Yoruichi Shihouin has become increasingly fond of using taijutsu (physical techniques).

Her fighting style leans towards melee combat, and she doesn't particularly like using ranged attack methods like "Flowing Light".

Yoruichi Shihouin covered her head with her hands, saying aggrievedly, "I didn't know 'Flowing Light' could be this powerful..."

“Ranged attacks don’t have to be used often, but they can’t be absent,” July chuckled. “However, it’s good that you can use Naruto to unleash a move with similar power to ‘Raikiri: Flowing Light.’ The Instant Hokage system is a promising path worth exploring, and you’re not wrong to go in this direction.”

Yoruichi Shihouin nodded repeatedly: "I feel like I'll soon be able to combine Naruto's lightning power with 'Shunho: Raikiri Form,' and then my explosive power and speed will increase to another level!"

The lightning power released by the cat is stronger than the lightning power created by the Kido. When the two are combined, Yoruichi Shihouin's Shunko state will greatly enhance her explosive power and speed.

Just then, Yoruichi Shihouin's communication device made a sound.

She took out the communication device and discovered that it contained a message from two covert mobile unit Grim Reapers stationed on the surface:

"Vice Captain, an emergency has been detected on the surface!"

"A 'Gateway to Hell' has appeared on the surface of the earth!"

The message transmitted through the communication device startled Yoruichi Shihouin. From the information she received, it was clear that Tetsuya Miyamoto was definitely connected to Hell, and the appearance of the Gates of Hell at this time was not a good thing.

"The Gates of Hell?" July immediately sensed the state of the 'Sound of Hell' and found that the 'Sound of Hell' had indeed sensed the presence of Hell Spirits nearby.

"You continue to observe the movements of the 'Gates of Hell,' I'll be right up!" Yoruichi Shihouin said to the messenger.

“We can get out from here.” July pointed to the hole that the light had created, which led directly to the surface. They could get out from here.

The two followed the cave entrance and quickly reached the surface, where they indeed saw a door panel with a huge skull attached to each side floating high in the air.

The 'Gates of Hell' have been opened, and are now emanating an unsettling hellfire of phosphorescence.

"The gates of hell have really opened..." Yoruichi Shihouin exclaimed in surprise.

"Shikatori-sensei! Vice-captain!"

Two Secret Service Grim Reapers stationed on the surface flew over. Upon seeing Shichitori, they recalled the terrifying beam of light they had just witnessed, and their worries about the opening of the 'Gates of Hell' were immediately dispelled.

"The Gates of Hell have taken away Tetsuya Miyamoto's spirit particle!" July noticed something amiss; he saw a spirit particle drift into the Gates of Hell.

Although Miyamoto Tetsuya had been shattered by the light, he was still a strong person who had reached the captain level.

In this world, captain-level powerhouses do not truly die.

Whether in the human world, Soul Society, or Hueco Mundo, once a captain-level powerhouse dies, sending their spirit particles to Hell will allow them to be resurrected there.

“Miyamoto Tetsuya is indeed connected to hell in some way. No one held a ‘soul burial ceremony’ for him, yet the ‘Gates of Hell’ came to take away his spiritual energy,” July said.

"Can we interrupt this process?" Yoruichi Shihouin asked.

“Unless there is a way to eliminate the spirit particles, there should be no way to stop it.” July frowned.

His current spiritual pressure is insufficient to unleash powerful Kido or sword techniques to destroy the 'Gates of Hell'.

Moreover, even if the 'Gates of Hell' are destroyed, they will reassemble. This is not the Soul Society, so opening the 'Gates of Hell' is much easier.

"It seems that the 'Will of Hell' has the ability to forcibly open the 'Gates of Hell' in the mortal world. However, those who have fallen into Hell also have restrictions on their activities in the mortal world. Otherwise, the 'Will of Hell' could directly send the people of Hell under its control to assist Miyamoto Tetsuya," July guessed.

No sinful souls were seen being taken away in July, and the 'Gates of Hell' appeared out of thin air, indicating that the 'Will of Hell' has the ability to forcibly open the 'Gates of Hell' in the mortal world.

After the Gates of Hell took away the spirit particles, they slowly disappeared.

"Thank goodness, I thought a bunch of hellish demons would come out of there." Yoruichi Shihouin breathed a sigh of relief when the Gates of Hell disappeared.

There are many legends about hell in Soul Society. For a spirit like Yoruichi Shihouin who grew up in Soul Society, the horrors of hellish demons are something she has heard since childhood.

“It won’t be easy for Miyamoto Tetsuya to replicate an experimental base of this scale in Hell. He probably won’t be able to cause trouble anytime soon,” July said.

Scientific research requires a supportive environment; it is much more difficult to conduct scientific research in a desolate hell.

Having strong personal strength is fundamental; July is confident that she can reach a higher level before Miyamoto Tetsuya causes trouble.

"You should have found where the data is stored by now, right?" July said.

"Found them. They should still be collecting information. I'll take you there, teacher." Yoruichi Shihouin nodded.

The two returned to the underground experimental base.

The remaining members of the covert task force are either collecting technical data from the laboratory or keeping watch at the elevator.

The spirits in the upper area had already noticed the activity in the lower experimental area, but the only way to enter the experimental area from the upper area was through the elevator.

The spirit corpses that descended via the elevator were no match for the elite Grim Reapers of the Covert Force; they were all either killed or subdued.

In July, Yoruichi Shihouin followed her to the laboratory's data archive.

"Shikatori-sensei! Vice-captain!"

The Shinigami of the Onmitsukido squad all looked at Shikatori Nanatsuki with reverence.

They were initially puzzled as to why Shikagoshi Nanatsuki was brought along on such a secret mission.

Such missions should be carried out by professionals like them who excel at advances, assassinations, and disguises.

Now they know why they brought Shikari Nanatsuki along—

Killing all the enemies blocking your way is equivalent to successfully stealthing.

For example, the reason they can now search the database for research materials without restraint is because the owner of the laboratory, Miyamoto Tetsuya, has been killed by Shikatoshi Nanatsuki.

"These boxes contain all the documents we've compiled. You can check them to see if anything is missing." The elite Death Squad member from the Covert Force eagerly handed over a box of paper documents.

The Shinigami of the Onmitsukido Squad have always had a good attitude towards Shikatori Nanatsuki because they believe there is a high possibility that he will become the son-in-law of the Shihōin family.

"Thank you for your hard work, I'm very grateful." July smiled as she accepted the documents.

The data collection wasn't finished yet, and she couldn't go back right away. Since she had nothing else to do, July picked up the data and started looking through it.

A moment later, July discovered Miyamoto Tetsuya's plot from the documents.

Tetsuya Miyamoto created hundreds of spirit skeletons in this laboratory, nurturing them from embryos.
