Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 817: Soul King Yhwach
Esdeath closed her eyes and, with her keen perception, captured a faint fluctuation of a spatial node amidst the chaotic and complex lepton fluctuations.

There is the gateway to the Palace of the Spirit King.

When Esdeath finally captured the spatial node leading to the Soul King Palace, the spiritual pressure in her body instantly boiled, as if millions of rivers converged into the sea, surging violently.

The ice-blue spiritual pressure was like the coldest wind in winter, sweeping across the entire battlefield in an instant and freezing everything around it.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the ice-blue spiritual pressure in Esdeath's body suddenly erupted, like the coldest wind in winter, instantly sweeping across the entire sky of Soul Society.

This sudden change shocked everyone. The originally quiet night sky was occupied by a dazzling ice blue, as if a second star was born at this moment, illuminating the entire world.

This spiritual pressure was so strong that it was enough to shake the heavens and the earth, and made the entire Soul Society tremble. The ground continued to shake under the influence of the shock wave, as if even the earth was protesting against the rampage of this power.

However, for Esdeath, this was just the initial display of her power. She stared at the location of the spatial node and detonated the spiritual pressure that had been condensed to the extreme in one breath.

At that moment, the entire space seemed to be torn apart, and the closed space nodes exploded violently the moment they came into contact with this terrifying spiritual pressure.

The space barrier shattered like fragile glass, breaking into countless tiny fragments and scattering. The spiritual pressure column generated by the explosion shot straight into the sky, penetrating through layers of space barriers and pointing directly to the alien space where the Spirit King's Palace was located.

The seals and obstacles encountered along the way seemed so vulnerable in the face of this power, and were pierced and destroyed one after another.

Esdeath didn't hesitate at all. While the space was not yet completely stable, she jumped into the strange space that was still violently vibrating.

As she passed through the radiant portal, an unprecedented sense of shock came over her.

The scene before her was far beyond her imagination—the Soul King Palace, the most mysterious and noble place in this world of death, was now floating quietly in the air.

The solemnity of Omotesando, the prosperity of the palace district, the tranquility of Reiban-den and the solemnity of Osato-inai Main Den where the Soul King rests together form a fascinating picture.

The moment she stepped into the Soul King Palace, Esdeath immediately felt the rich breath of soul particles in the air.

These spirit particles seemed to have life, circling and dancing around her, forming gorgeous bands of light.

However, the concentration of spirit particles in the God's world is higher than here, so Esdeath has no problem adapting.

Esdeath took a quick glance and discovered that Yhwach had already dealt with those people from Squad Zero and was heading straight for the Soul King Palace.

"very good."

Esdeath was still worried that she was attacking the Soul King Palace too fast and that Yhwach would not have enough time to deal with Squad Zero.

I didn’t expect Yhwach to be so powerful. It may also be that the pressure she put on Yhwach was too great.

However, it could also be related to the fact that Hyoshubu Ichibei's power was taken away by Luther and has not yet recovered.

Then, at this moment, an unprecedented force surged out like a raging wave, rushing straight into the sky, and its power was enough to shake the foundation of the entire soul world.

The source of this power was none other than Yhwach, who was once known as the "King of the Quincies". After countless failures and rebirths, he finally touched the forbidden boundary and successfully took the power of the Soul King for himself. Esdeath's eyes lit up, and she ignored the corpses of Squad Zero lying on the ground, and like a ghost, she shuttled through the space cracks and stepped directly into the legendary Soul King Hall, which was said to contain the secrets of the world.

Inside the hall, the light was dim and the air seemed to be frozen. Only the figure of Yhwach was shining brightly in the darkness, becoming the center of everything.

Yhwach's body was enveloped in deep darkness. These darknesses were not simply colors, but sources of power that contained destruction and rebirth.

They were like greedy beasts, madly devouring everything around them, but in the blink of an eye they transformed into surging power in Yhwach's body.

His body was covered with an unknown black substance, as if night had fallen, covering him with a black robe that symbolized absolute domination.

The black mist was lingering, and each wisp contained enough energy to change the color of the sky and the earth. His eyes, which were originally full of a weird aura, were now replaced by countless tiny eyes. Each pair of eyes seemed to be an independent universe, peeking at the secrets of all things in the world.

As the power of Yhwach awakened, the entire Soul King Hall seemed unable to withstand the impact of this power and began to tremble violently.

Those solid stone pillars forged by ancient power collapsed one after another amidst Youhabach's wild laughter, emitting shrill wails, and eventually turned into piles of ruins, scattered all over the ground.

The dome of the hall also collapsed, revealing the chaotic sky outside, as if heralding the end of the old world and the beginning of a new era.

"Hahaha……"

Yhwach's laughter echoed throughout the space, full of pride and madness.

He felt the power of the Spirit King flowing through his body. It was a power that surpassed all his previous knowledge and was strong enough to allow him to subvert all rules and reshape the world order.

He knew very well that he was no longer a being limited to the category of human or Quincy, but a supreme being that transcended life and death and transcended boundaries.

However, the awakening of this power also brought unprecedented disasters.

This change quickly spread to the entire soul world - Soul Society, Hueco Mundo, and the real world.

These three originally independent yet interdependent worlds began to experience unprecedented turmoil due to the disappearance of the wedge of the Spirit King.

The collapse of high-rise buildings is no longer just a collapse of buildings, but the disintegration of the entire world structure, the distortion of space, and the confusion of time. The edges of the three worlds begin to blur and even collide, as if the universe is undergoing a drastic reorganization.

In this chaos, there are infinite possibilities. If the essence of the world can find balance again in this chaos, then a new world will be born, a more stable and harmonious world.

But at the same time, there are huge risks. Once a new balance point cannot be found, everything will return to nothingness. All life, memory, and civilization will vanish and return to the endless darkness.

"Not bad, it seems that you have become much stronger now."

Esdeath said while looking at Yhwach.

Upon hearing this, Yhwach curled up his lips into a sneer. He looked at Esdeath as if she were an ant.
