Bleach: Getting Stronger Starting from Teaching at the Spiritual Arts Academy

"You guessed right, the author of the recipe is Kurosaki Ryugin."

"The Kurosaki family has so many talented people..."

After finishing cooking, Kiryuu lost weight and returned to the familiar appearance he had in July.

Besides the 'Dragon's Roar Cuisine', Kiryu Hikifune also made a lot of regular dishes, and it took July several hours to finish eating them.

If his spirit hadn't been strong enough to digest the 'temporary soul' spiritual pressure in the food quickly, he probably would have been stuffed to death by the food.

After eating the food cooked by Hikifune Kiryu, July's spiritual pressure rose rapidly.

Chapter 393 The Limits of Death

Kiryuu's 'temporary soul', which he had accumulated for over twenty years, greatly amplified July's spiritual pressure!

【Spiritual Pressure lv99 (380000/500000)】

Kiryuki was really generous to July, using all the 'temporary souls' he had accumulated over the past twenty years while cooking.

My spiritual pressure increased by more than a million experience points, raising my level from 97 to 99!

During the months of preparation, July spent most of her time teaching her disciples, which allowed her to accumulate some general experience and raise her Void Transformation skill to level 90, with some remaining.

In July, 120000 general experience points were invested into spiritual pressure.

The spiritual pressure within his body surged rapidly in the next instant!

The surging spiritual pressure surged through his body like a herd of wild horses.

However, in July, having already experienced level 100 spiritual pressure in advance through Hollowfication, he instantly tamed and calmed the chaotic spiritual pressure.

"You've grown a lot; not a single bit of your potential has been wasted!"

Kiryuu sensed the undisguised spiritual pressure fluctuations.

She patted July's strong shoulder and laughed loudly, "You're as reliable as Captain-Commander Yamamoto now!"

"Thanks to Ms. Kiryu's hospitality, otherwise it would have taken me much longer to grow to this level!" July said gratefully.

Kiryuu's perception was correct; July has now reached the limit of a Shinigami!

Before this, he could briefly reach this state by using the ability to become intangible, but now, it has become his normal state.

In July, in front of Kiryu Hikifune, she used Hollowfication to conjure the mask.

[Spiritual Pressure lv100]

"The power of Hollows is far inferior to the power of Shinigami. After Hollowfication, there is no increase in spiritual pressure. However, it has the abilities of super speed regeneration, steel skin, and Cero. The Hollowfied state is still much stronger than the normal state."

In July, I felt the changes within my body.

The power of the Shinigami has now reached its limit. Next, we need to continue to enhance the power of Hollows and Quincy.

Today, his goal is not just to become a transcendent being like Aizen with the Hogyoku. If he wanted, the Hogyoku he possessed could soon help him reach that point.

July's goal is to reach the Spirit King level!

Even to become an existence surpassing the Spirit King!

July has never forgotten that the Three Realms created by the Spirit King need to rely on the 'Contract of the Three Realms' to maintain them.

If he does not surpass the Spirit King, he may become the next 'Contract of the Three Realms'.

To take control of one's destiny, one must surpass the Spirit King and achieve what even the Spirit King could not do!

"This must be the power of the void!"

"It feels exactly the same as the mask of the void; it feels like bone."

Kiryuki observed July's mask with great interest, even reaching out to touch it.

After becoming a member of the Zero Division, she learned more about the Soul King and that he controlled the powers of Shinigami, Hollows, and Quincy. Therefore, she was not surprised that Shikatori Nanatsuki, who possessed the 'Shadow of the Soul King,' had the power of a Hollow.

"The material composition should be similar to the illusory mask. If the mask is broken, will it affect you?"

Kirio Hikifune's researcher side has awakened.

"It doesn't have much of an impact. It's still somewhat different from a regular Hollow. In fact, when I exit this state, the mask will fall off on its own."

After July finished speaking, she exited the ethereal state, and the bone mask on her face immediately shattered.

Kiryu quickly reached out and caught some of the falling mask fragments, but these fragments soon decomposed into spiritual particles and merged into the air.

"It decomposed so quickly?" Kiryu looked regretful. "I wanted to keep a piece for research."

"You should have recovered those sealed memories by now, those memories contain secrets about your origins."

Kiryuki took the opportunity to bring up a secret from the past.

"After the spirit remains merged with the shadow of the spirit king, the seal was broken."

July nodded.

He was quickly discovered after he traveled into the shadow of the Spirit King.

After being separated, Shutara Senjumaru sewed him into Shikatori Hakunsai's spirit body.

"Senjumaru also tried many times at that time."

"If the 'Shadow of the Spirit King' is not sealed, the fragile spirit body of the first version of the Spirit Remains will not be able to bear the 'Shadow of the Spirit King' and will soon be squeezed and burst by the 'Shadow of the Spirit King'."

"Later, the monk sealed the 'Shadow of the Spirit King,' and from that moment on, you were no longer the 'Shadow of the Spirit King.'"

Kiryuki revealed more secrets.

After the 'Shadow of the Spirit King' in July's spirit body was sealed by Hyosube Ichibei, it lost its status as the 'Shadow of the Spirit King' and became an ordinary shadow containing July's consciousness and soul.

After losing the status of 'Shadow of the Spirit King', Shikatori Hakunsai's spirit body can now bear this shadow.

"The monk can even seal the 'Shadow of the Spirit King'... Well, he created the 'Contract of the Three Realms' himself, so sealing the 'Shadow of the Spirit King' wouldn't be difficult for him."

July pondered his worries, for they were not unfounded.

The Three Realms are currently relatively stable, so Hyōshūbe Ichibei has no hostility towards him.

However, if problems arise in the Three Realms and a new 'Three Realms Covenant' is needed to stabilize them, then July may be selected as the next 'Three Realms Covenant'.

Therefore, in July, he must surpass Hyosube Ichibei and Rei-oh and take control of his own destiny!

"So, in fact, all five of you were involved in this!" July said.

“Yes, although the treatment plan for Bayunzhai was decided by Senior Kirinji, I was the one who cultivated the spirit body!” Hikifune Kiryu smiled. “Then Senior Nimaiya cut off the ‘Shadow of the Spirit King’, and after the monk sealed it, it was sewn into the spirit body by Senjumaru.”

Kiryu sometimes treats July as if she were a junior or a child, because she facilitated July's birth, and even July's spirit was nurtured by her own hands.

She naturally felt a fondness for July, and as July grew up, this fondness even reached the point of doting.

After catching up with Qiyue for a while, Yizhou Tongsheng saw him off from the Wotun Palace.

"It's getting late, let me take you to your next destination."

...

The next stop in July was the residence of Shutara Senjumaru.

Shutara Senjumaru's residence was unique in style, filled with all kinds of fabrics, and even the floor was covered with fabrics.

When she arrived here in July, she was leisurely drinking deer antler spirit wine.

"Kiryu is very generous, giving you all the 'temporary soul fragments' he's accumulated over twenty years." Shutara Senjumaru downed the sake in his golden bowl in one gulp. "I've had enough to drink, now..."

Shutara Senjumaru's lips curled up slightly:

"Take off your clothes."

Chapter 394 Forging a Sword

At Shutara Senjumaru's request, Nanatsuki had no choice but to take off all his clothes in front of her.

Shutara Senjumaru moved all his arms at once to take Nanatsu's measurements.

She wanted to give the July tailor a new outfit.

Shutara Senjumaru, also known as "Great Weaver," is best at sewing clothes.

"Wait, we don't need to measure that area!"

"Why are you being so coy? It's not like we've never seen anything like this before. The comfort of clothing also needs to take into account changes in the body."

Shutara Senjumaru's craftsmanship required her to pay attention to every detail.

Brush away the obstructing hand and continue taking measurements.

Shutara Senjumaru's ambiguous smile made July feel as if she was deliberately teasing her.

"Okay, wait here for a while."

After measuring all the dimensions, Shutara Senjumaru finally stopped and left the room with the ruler.

After a while.

Shutara Senjumaru came out carrying a newly tailored shihaka outfit and haori cloak.

"Yes, it fits perfectly."

After putting it on in July, he immediately felt the difference between the clothes and ordinary Shinigami uniforms.

The clothes I wear are like part of my spirit.

The clothes, sewn by Shutara Senjumaru himself, are naturally different from ordinary Shinigami uniforms. These clothes possess some characteristics of spirits, and can be strengthened by spiritual pressure, which enhances the clothing's defense. They can even be restored by spiritual pressure after being damaged.

"Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni values ​​you highly and seems to be grooming you to be the next Captain-Commander. I also look forward to that day, which is why I didn't tattoo the 12th Division number on my haori."

Shutara Senjumaru picked up the white haori cloak, revealing the text on the back.

The back of the haori cloak is inscribed with the two characters "Shika-tori" in a bold and unrestrained style.

Shutara Senjumaru is a haori cloak made based on the haori worn by the head of the dojo.

"The clothes fit perfectly, and I really like the haori cloak. Thank you!" July said, putting on the haori cloak that Shutara Senjumaru handed her.

"Okay, let me take you to the next place. The others are still waiting for you," Shutara Senjumaru said with a smile.

......

After changing her clothes, July was taken to the Phoenix Palace by Shutara Senjumaru.

Phoenix Palace is the residence of 'Sword God' Nimaiya Oetsu.

The environment here is different from the other floating islands; half of this floating island is covered by water.

As soon as July arrived, a spotlight, seemingly out of nowhere, shone on him.

"Yo!!!"

Nimaiya Oetsu jumped over from a distance and started an embarrassing dance.

"Welcome to my fashion show..."

"Let me introduce myself again. I am, the master of the Phoenix Palace, Wang Yue of the Two-Piece House~"

When Nimaiya Wangyue speaks, his tone rises and falls, with pauses between words that are in sync with his dance movements.

bang bang bang-

Several young women coordinated to set off confetti cannons and fireworks nearby, with colorful petals and streamers forming the backdrop behind Wang Yue of Ermei House.

This performance was clearly arranged in advance by Oetsu Nimaiya.

"Senior Nimaiya has such refined tastes..."

July clapped awkwardly.

"Hahaha, you've finally arrived! If you hadn't come, I would have thought you were lost in the gentle embrace ahead!" Nimaiya Wangyue introduced the young women behind him, "Let me introduce you, they are my personal guards."

These young women have very different styles; some are kind and approachable, some are petite and delicate, and some are bold and sexy.

But they all have one thing in common—they are not ordinary spirits!

"A materialized Zanpakuto! Senior truly lives up to his title of 'Sword God,' managing to materialize so many Zanpakuto so easily!" July exclaimed in admiration.

"Your spiritual senses are quite sharp! You realized so quickly that they weren't Shinigami!" Nimaiya Oetsu nodded. "They are indeed Zanpakuto, and all of them were forged by my own hands!"

"Are you going to make the guests stand here forever?!"
