The rising sun shatters the darkness!

Chapter 174: Ten Years in the World, Old Friends Come and Go (asking for monthly tickets)

"Seireitei, the organization of extraordinary people hiding behind the scenes... unexpectedly appeared at this time!"

Obviously, it can be seen from all aspects that the Soul Society, which appeared after he died and became a "spirit", is obviously a much more advanced existence than the previous Abnormal Biology Research Institute.

It was the first time for Xu Shu to become a "posthumous legend", so he was quite curious.

Seeing that the old man with a rather strange appearance in front of him obviously possessed a lot of knowledge, Xu Shu immediately asked his own question and waited for the next words:

[“What is Seireitei?” You asked the other person like a curious baby. ]

【Seeing your state, the people around you looked at you with more intense eyes, and they all started to discuss, "Such a pure soul, such a strong spiritual pressure, and it's in human form! Oh my god, this is simply a perfect soul-slaying sword", "If I can sign a contract with him, I will be able to kick the Ten Espada and punch the captain in the near future!" You vaguely heard what they were saying, but you didn't understand why.】

[Fortunately, the old man with white eyebrows in front of you is a very kind-hearted guy. He explained to you: "As you can see, you must have known that you are dead, right?"]

[You nodded. There is nothing to hide about this. You did die in the explosion at the research institute in Raccoon City.]

[The old man said: "Haha, this is the kingdom of the god of death, the place where the dead return! It is the final destination of all dead souls. It is a place that protects all human or non-human spirits after death so that they can maintain their rationality and not become monsters that wreak havoc on the world. For convenience, we generally call it: the Soul Realm. We are people who exist specifically to protect the Soul Realm."]

【“Soul Realm?” Your pupils shrank. 】

【After the old man's further explanation, you finally understand the whole story. 】

[It turns out that in this world, there is a secret organization that is unknown to ordinary people but protects the human world - Seireitei. ]

[Also, a special dimension that mortals cannot access - the place where the dead return to their homeland, which they call the Soul Realm.]

[After a normal person dies, the soul enters Guixu and dissipates directly, turning into invisible energy, returning to the world and escaping into the unknown.]

[However, due to various special reasons, such as 'Heguang radiation pollution', and the invasion of power from various cult sacrifices, a very small proportion of people will have their souls not dispersed after death, and become "spirits", which is the source of the seals you know. ]

[The vast majority of "spirits" have a spiritual pressure of less than 30, so they will not have much impact on the real world. ]

[However, there are some "spirits" that are seriously polluted and have strong resentment. Their spiritual pressure has completely exceeded the limit and they will involuntarily absorb the energy of humans and other "spirits" to gain more powerful power. ]

[The price of power is loss of control, the "spirit" will deteriorate and become "empty", which is also the origin of the literal meaning of the dead returning to the abyss - after death, it becomes a "spirit"; when the "spirit" loses control, it becomes "empty". ]

[As a "Hollow" being, one cannot control oneself and will spontaneously kill everyone around him uncontrollably, devouring the small amount of "spirits" in their bodies to continue strengthening oneself.]

[For example, you, because your spiritual pressure is very strong, you are eating people everywhere in Raccoon City, and you ate all the sealed objects in the riot at the research institute here, so you attracted their attention. ]

"...Oh, I see. It's the vengeful spirit?"

It seems like a lot of things have been said, but this is not a problem at all for Xu Shu, who has a wide range of knowledge.

[Since the emergence of Soul Society a thousand years ago, the Soul Society has been in charge of and protecting Soul Society, responsible for guiding lost souls in the real world back to Soul Society, and also for dealing with terrifying beings that have deteriorated into Hollows due to excessive resentment.]

[Because their scope of work is quite similar to that of the "Death God" in myths and legends, after countless years of evolution, they call themselves "Speakers of the Death God". The true master of this soul world is naturally the legendary - the Death God.]

[In order to better maintain peace and stability in the world, Seireitei implements a team system, and the thirteen most powerful representatives of the God of Death are called "Captains." ]

[And the one standing in front of you right now is even more of a heavyweight. He is the captain of the 1th Division of Seireitei, a super old monster who has survived for who knows how many years, Genryusai Yamagami. 】 (Note )

[And you, you are currently a pure and uncontaminated "spirit" with extremely high spiritual pressure, which is the favorite of this group of "representatives of the god of death". As long as they sign a contract with you and turn you from a "wild spirit" into a "guardian spirit" in the form of their weapon, their strength will be enhanced. ]

[Of course, you may lose some freedom, but this is the best solution. Now you have two options: become a "guardian spirit" and work with the agents of the god of death to maintain world peace.]

[Or you will be regarded as a bad thing that destroys world peace by the agents of the God of Death, and sent to Guixu to be purified by turning into pure energy.]

[Your choice is...]

"What the hell is this? You should really give me a chance to choose."

Xu Shu rolled his eyes.

This is really Song Jiang going down to Liangshan. If he is not the leader, then he is Song.

As the old saying goes, when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head, and Xu Shu is no exception.

There was no need to hesitate. Xu Shu wanted to see the new world, so he naturally chose the latter.

[You smiled and expressed your willingness to be a friend of all the representatives of the God of Death, to contribute to the peace of this world, and you were very happy to be born as a spirit.]

[Seeing that you have such great ambitions, Yamagami Genryusai was very pleased and kindly said that you can freely choose your contractor.]

[The so-called contractor means that you can freely choose a Death Agent you like and sign a contract with him. The other party promises to use your power well, and you will never leave the contractor. ]

[The reason why I gave you such a wide range of freedom to choose is that you are very sensible, and secondly, because the Death Agent and the Guardian Spirit need to cooperate with each other to exert the strongest power.]

[The most crucial point is: the liberation of the real name. Only the Death God's agent who has been fully recognized by the guardian spirit will be told his real name by the guardian spirit, thereby gaining further power.]

[In other words, a forced melon will not only not be sweet, but will also be weak. Yamagami Genryusai will naturally not do such an unwise thing. ]

[“Damn it, no matter how you look at it, I’m the one who’s at a disadvantage.” You were a little indignant, looking at the Death God agents who were eagerly lining up to show you their abilities in an attempt to win your favor.]

[Your "job fair" is held in a relatively simple but fairly private room. ]

[“I don’t know who to choose?” You stroked your Purple Myrtle Scepter, your spirit body swaying and floating, and you fell into deep thought. ]

[The first person to appear in the room was a woman with a full figure and a very eye-catching appearance. She had a teardrop mole at the corner of her eye, and her eyes were feminine and melancholy, but also had a masculine aura. These two seemingly contradictory temperaments were perfectly integrated into one person.]

[“I just want to quietly protect this world. Protecting the world requires strength, and I hope to get your help.” The woman first showed a more respectful attitude, but suddenly quietly approached you and whispered in a voice that only you and your mother Christina could hear: “The so-called strong are just monkeys in brocade clothes; the so-called gods are just humans who are good at disguise! If you are willing to follow me, I will take you to see the world of the truly strong and take you to unveil the veil of the so-called gods.”] (Note 2)

"what?"

Xu Shu raised his eyebrows.

This girl has a rebellious mind and seems to have quite a few secrets. If you choose her, you may be able to get some details about the "Gods" of this world later.

God?

Is it referring to the "God of Death" worshipped by Soul Society?
Or an evil god like Arthas?
Xu Shu silently labeled this general-like woman as "special attention" and said expressionlessly:

[“Got it, next one.” You said you still needed to shop around. She looked at you deeply, then politely pressed her chest, bowed deeply, and walked out, saying, “I hope we can have a chance to work together.”]

【“…So generous.” You are quite surprised. 】

[The next person who came in was a big-breasted cute girl wearing round-frame glasses, a long braided hairstyle, an exaggeratedly large headlight on her chest, and a pheasant sword on her back. She called herself the captain of the eighth team, Kano-no-tōsai.]

[“Follow me, if I eat, you will eat.” The cute girl with a contrasting cuteness pats her chest vigorously and promises you. ]

[You are immediately attracted by this pair of headlights, which are very pleasing to the eye and are definitely a beauty that you cannot afford to miss.]

[You kindly express that you would like to reconsider it, and hint that she has high hopes and hopes that she will not mind.]

[“I understand. I hope to sign a contract with you.” She licked her lips and winked at you and the Purple Myrtle Scepter in your hand.]

[The next person who came in was a woman with milky white hair and a graceful figure. Her name was Unohana Rei. She was a beautiful young woman in white who wore a katana on her waist and liked close combat. She was also a powerful captain-level figure. She might not be the most outstanding in terms of appearance, but she was dressed like a widow, and the mourning clothes greatly increased her points in your eyes.]

[“Madam, I am ready to reconsider this. You also have great hope!” You said sincerely, holding her hands.]

[Damn it, where are you looking at? The best you said is hope! You are such a pervert! You are a "spirit" now, to put it simply, you are a ghost! You are still so lustful after death, you are really a lustful ghost! ]

[As the saying goes, ladies first. In addition to Aizen taking the lead, you then interviewed several other powerful female Shinigami agents. Some were pure and lovely, some were charming and graceful, some were cute and silly, some were hot and wild, and there were also two dark-skinned benefits.]

[Each of them couldn't let go of your Purple Myrtle Scepter, and they were eager to try, expressing their hope to take you down.]

[Some of them have high hopes, some have low hopes, and you rate them A, B, C, D, E, F, etc.] [After the ladies have gone through the application process, the men are next.]

[The first person to appear in front of you is an old acquaintance, a muscular old man with long eyebrows, Yamagami Genryusai. ]

[“Sir, actually, I don’t mind having an extra guardian spirit…” The captain sat cross-legged on the ground with a smile, ready to discuss with you in detail.]

[“No need to say more, next one.” Christina and you made the same decision at the same time. The powerful captain was eliminated by you right after he started, which caused a burst of laughter outside.]

[You then interviewed many Death God agents one after another.]

[Some of them are powerful captain-level masters, each of whom seems to have invincible divine power. They make all kinds of promises to you, some will take you to the top of the world's highest peak, some will take you to kill all powerful enemies, and there is even a silver-haired squinting-eyed one who wants to make you the new generation of "Spirit King".]

[The Soul King is one of the rulers of the Soul World. It is said that he is blessed by the God of Death and is an immortal being.]

[You are quite interested in this and want to ask more questions, but the other party is a cunning person who will not tell you until you sign the contract.]

[“What a joke! Throughout my life, I, Arthur, have never been inferior to anyone and have never been constrained by others!” You brushed him off.]

[The following interviewees are all similar. They either want to take you to kill the most evil and powerful villain Death Agent "Jiuben" in the legend, or they want to travel the world with you on swords.]

[You are not very satisfied. ]

[Your eyes wandered over a row of D-F level Death God captains. They each had two advantages. At this moment, you only hated that you could only sign a contract with one of them. Why couldn't a guardian spirit protect multiple Death God agents at the same time? How abominable! ]

[You need to be more sober! You are a spirit now, don’t mess around! ]

[After careful consideration, you finally chose the teardrop mole beauty who you paid special attention to and was particularly ambitious, out of consideration for more possibilities in the future, beyond everyone's expectations.]

[Everyone was very surprised, because although this beauty was also graceful, there were still many people who could match her in terms of beauty. At the same time, she was only a "vice-captain" level, and in terms of strength, status, and background, she was not very outstanding.]

[Rather than choosing a captain who is obviously a good fit, choose a vice-captain? ]

[Everyone said, "This guardian spirit looks very strong, but it's not very smart~" and left with regret. Especially those female captains who you said had great hope, they looked at you with resentment, not knowing why they lost.]

[“I knew you would choose me. Then, let me introduce myself.” The tear mole beauty shook your hand and asked with a smile: “What’s your name?”]

[“It’s basic courtesy to tell others your name before asking them.” You answered calmly.]

【“I’m a girl, you speak first.”】

[“No, I am a dead spirit. The dead are the greatest. You speak first.”]

[“I am also the god of death, and I am also great.”]

【"You first."】

【"You first."】

【"You first!!!"】

[You feel a headache, you really picked a thorn. ]

[After persisting for a moment, you reached an agreement and decided to speak at the same time. ]

[“Arthur Blumen, a wild spirit from Raccoon City.” You give your real name, but it’s only one-third.]

[“Aizome Kagami-chan, Vice Captain of the Fifth Division.” This beautiful lady with a teardrop mole on her face has a very cute name.]

[You signed the agreement, shook hands with each other, and you carried your Purple Star Scepter and officially merged it into her personal weapon, the long sword named "Mirror Flower Water Moon". Your Purple Star Scepter formed the head, and she held it in her hand every day from then on.]

[In 2097, you officially joined the Soul Society and became a member of the Death God's Agent. You began to carry out missions with your contractor Aizen Kagami Kohana.]

[The tasks of the Death God's Agent are very boring. Every day, I just eat, sleep, and fight against the Great Hollow.]

[A Hollow is a spirit whose reason is controlled by resentment. A Great Hollow is a deteriorated Hollow. It is a more ruthless existence than a Hollow, constantly threatening the Soul World and even affecting the safety of the human real world.]

[However, the Hollows cannot be killed completely. ]

[Where there are people, there are spirits. Where there are spirits, there are voids. If you kill the void and send it to Guixu, it may be reincarnated as a human. After a person dies, he or she will become a spirit or even a void, which in turn harms humans.]

【Life and death, repeating over and over again, the cycle never ends. 】

[You and your teammates are carrying out missions everywhere. You discover that Aizen Kagami is a very cunning person. On the surface, she and other teammates are working together to eliminate the Hollows and maintain world peace. But secretly, she secretly saves some of the Hollow spirits, some of which are used to feed you and strengthen your strength; the other part is placed in a secret black box.]

[“What’s in the box?” You don’t quite understand. This little girl is very mysterious.]

[“You will know when the time comes. You will witness the rebirth of this world with me.” Lan Ran Jing Xiaohua is ambitious. ]

[In the following ten years, you have been conscientiously carrying out the missions issued by the Soul Society, slaying the Great Hollows and protecting the stability of the Soul Society and the human world.]

[It is worth mentioning that in the Soul Society's highest authority, the Soul Society's Soul Society, all Death God agents are required to remove their weapons when they go in to deliver a mission. So every time you come back to deliver a mission, you are bored and sneak out to do some embarrassing things with the girls you once placed great hopes on.]

[Every time you finish, Lan Ran Jing Xiao Hua always finds you wet, which is puzzling. 】

[Isn't this also a form of cheating, you damn scumbag. ]

["The moisture in the Soul World is getting heavier. As expected, sins are accumulating. If this continues, the Soul World will sooner or later become a wet Soul World... The past... needs to be corrected..." Blue Zen Mirror Flower will wipe you carefully every time, with an inexplicable light flashing in her eyes. ]

[After ten years of life and death, with your help, Aizen Kagami Kohana's strength has greatly increased. In an incident where a large number of "hollows" invaded, she fought from the South Gate of Soul Realm to the edge of the North Pole front, and made numerous military exploits. The upper echelons of Seireitei intend to promote her to captain.]

[“Aizen, when we enter the center of the Soul Society tomorrow and answer questions from the council, I will hand over the position of captain of the 5th Division to you.” A beautiful woman with shoulder-length hair said to her.]

[This is her direct superior, the captain of the 5th Division, with whom you have had many in-depth and simple exchanges.]

[On July 2107, 7, Aizen Kagami Kohana was appointed as the captain of the 5th Division.]

[On July 2107, 7, Aizen Kagami Xiaohua secretly met a guest from an ancient oriental country. You were placed outside on guard, so you didn't see the other person's true appearance. You only vaguely remember that he was a strange-looking person who seemed to be a monk. The other person left a strange amulet, which Kagami Xiaohua carried with her. You looked at it closely, but you couldn't understand the weird symbols on it. It seemed to be of no use, so you didn't pay much attention to it.]

[Another ten years passed, and everything remained the same. You ate, slept, and fought against the Great Hollow every day. Your strength improved by leaps and bounds, and your relationship with Jing Xiaohua also improved by leaps and bounds. She couldn't sleep without hugging you every day, but you were always confused about what this ambitious woman wanted to do.]

[On April 2117, 4, a shocking incident occurred. While on a normal mission, Aizen Kagami Kohana suddenly rebelled and killed everyone in the "Room 8", the royal ruler of the Soul Society, as well as the former captain of the Fifth Division. He escaped from the Soul Society and became a wanted criminal. Along the way, he encountered the pursuit of his former companions and current teammates. He fought his way through all the obstacles and killed all his former teammates, carving out a bloody path.]

【Three years of war, enemies everywhere, all the way east.】

[On September 2120, 9, while fleeing, Aizen Kagami Kohana arrived at the border of the United States and encountered the strongest enemy she had ever encountered. He was a strong man who also had a guardian spirit. He was a strong man from Japan. His guardian spirit was a woman with a huge body, a sweet voice, but a very scary appearance.]

[As the saying goes, soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, during your battle, you learned the name of the other party's guardian spirit. ]

[Her name is Qi Li Xiang, and her master, the young man, is called Kagoshi Yuta.]

【Special grade sorcerer.】

"what???"

Looking at the huge spiritual monster on the screen that was struggling with him and screaming in pain as he whipped it with the Ziwei Scepter, Xu Shu was stunned for a moment.

A special-grade sorcerer?
Isn't he the Agent of Death?

What's going on?

This legend, could it be...
