Chapter 28 Hypnotherapy

Chapter 28 Hypnotherapy
There was no fluctuation in Aizen's spiritual pressure. It was obvious that he had a strong control over his own spiritual pressure, and his initial release was just mediocre.

"This is...Mirror Flower and Water Moon?"

Lu Li looked at the Zanpakuto in Aizen's hand with admiration. The blade reflected the moonlight outside the window, mysterious and elegant.

He himself did not feel anything unusual, and did not know whether he was in a state of hypnosis.

Thinking of this, Lu Li subconsciously glanced at the personal menu and discovered the benefits of the space system for the first time.

Because he saw a new negative status in his personal details interface.

Negative state. Complete hypnosis: The explorer has been completely hypnotized by Aizen Sosuke's Zanpakutō Kyoka Suigetsu, and your five senses have been controlled.

Note: As long as you have seen the release of Kyoka Suigetsu, you will be Kyoka Suigetsu's captive forever. Once you become Kyoka Suigetsu's captive forever, no matter when Aizen releases his Zanpakutō, he can cause him to have illusions.

Note: This state can be actively released by the holder of Mirror Flower and Water Moon.

"I won't show you the specific abilities of your Zanpakutō. After all, there are only two of us here. What I want to show you is the process of liberation, and help you master the tricks of Shikai."

Aizen said, holding the Kyoka Suigetsu horizontally in front of his face. The blade reflected the moonlight, illuminating his face. "Lu Jun, you can't open your Shikai now. What is the biggest problem you are facing?"

After Lu Li pondered for a moment, he decided to explain his situation to Aizen, "I saw Purgatory..."

After a while of explanation, Aizen frowned slightly. It was the first time he heard of such a strange scene in the depths of the soul.

"Lu Jun, are you saying that the being that is suspected to be your Zanpakuto rejected you and drove you out?"

Aizen asked.

Lu Li nodded, "He roared, and I was blown away by the wind. I had no power to resist."

He tried many times afterwards, but strangely, he could no longer reach that purgatory. Every time he resonated, he could only see endless darkness.

"This may be your subconscious resisting..."

Aizen analyzed, "Normally, Zanpakuto is a part of one's soul, or a reflection of one's inner self. The reason you were driven out was not because your Zanpakuto was resisting you, but because you were resisting obtaining this power."

Lu Li was a little confused after hearing this and pointed at himself, "Me? I'm resisting the power?"

He felt that Aizen's analysis was a bit ridiculous this time. He was a martial arts fanatic who pursued the pinnacle of power, so how could he resist gaining power?

Aizen nodded, frowning slightly, feeling that things were getting a little troublesome. "Lu Jun, you said you grew up in Rukongai. Did you experience any psychological trauma when you were young? For example... did you accidentally kill someone important to you?"

Lu Li shook his head repeatedly after hearing this. Unlike the people in Soul Society who grew up slowly and experienced a long time, his life was only twenty years in total, and he had been training with his master since he could remember.

His master taught him the qualities that a warrior should have, and also taught him many principles of life. He has always controlled his strength very well, and never relied on his strength to bully the weak.

As for accidentally killing someone, that absolutely did not happen. He did kill someone, but that was not an accident. He was intending to kill someone.

"That's strange..."

Aizen groaned, "Perhaps, there have been similar incidents, but Lu-kun, you have forgotten them in order to prevent yourself from going crazy?"

Lu Li shook his head. "Impossible. I believe in my memory. Sosuke, please help me think of a way to reach the depths of my heart again."

"If you want deep resonance, I can help you. Lu Jun, you may be too anxious and not relaxed enough, so you can't resonate. Have you heard of hypnotherapy?"

Aizen said. Lu Li looked strange. He felt that Aizen was like a psychiatrist talking to a patient. The patient clearly regarded him as a weirdo with some psychological trauma.

Damn hypnosis therapy, I’m hypnotized by you now.

Wait, hypnosis?
Lu Li's eyes lit up, he understood what Aizen meant. In a sense, Aizen's ability was really helpful to him a lot.

Aizen is a genius. He is very clear about the principles of awakening his Zanpakuto and knows the tricks. If he uses hypnosis to control himself to resonate, he might be able to awaken his Zanpakuto!

"Sosuke also knows hypnosis?"

Lu Li asked, he still had to act, he couldn't just say, "I know your true ability of Mirror Flowers and Water Moons, come and hypnotize me."

"I understand a little bit. Mr. Lu, please get into a resonance posture first and relax."

Aizen sat cross-legged opposite him and looked at Lu Li, with the Mirror Flower and Water Moon in his hand across his knees.

Lu Li did not waste any time. He sat down and put his hands on the shallow hit.

"Next, keep your eyes on my Zanpakutō. I will gently swing it, and you need to relax yourself..."

Aizen pretended to guide Lu Li step by step, "Yes, that's it. Now close your eyes and imagine that you have entered the soul space..."

After that, Lu Li could no longer hear Aizen's words. He found himself in the depths of the soul space again and walked to the front of the abyss.

After he took a step, he felt a sense of weightlessness and Lu Li exclaimed that hypnosis actually worked!
Soon, he came to Purgatory again and walked in front of the cage.

The crimson door opened, and the dark demon and Lu Li stared at each other silently.

There were too many complex emotions in those eyes, including anger, despair, ridicule, loneliness, and a barely visible... desire.

The next moment, a strong wind surged, and before Lu Li could ask the demon god's real name again, he was blown away.

"Lu Jun, Lu Jun, Lu Li, wake up!"

A familiar voice came to his ears. Lu Li opened his eyes and found himself lying on the bed with sweat all over his head, while Aizen was shaking himself hard beside him.

"Sosuke? What happened?"

Lu Li felt a little headache. When he stood up, he looked at the sky outside the window. It seemed that dawn was almost approaching, but he clearly felt that only a few minutes had passed from the time Aizen hypnotized him to the time he was blown out.

"I am not sure as well."

Aizen's eyes were filled with confusion. "You fell asleep very quickly after I hypnotized you. At first, the fluctuations of your spiritual pressure were relatively stable, but later they became extremely violent, and a faint purple-black spiritual pressure emanated from your body."

This hypnosis of Lu Li was completely beyond Aizen's understanding of the soul. It was true that he was the guide of the hypnosis, but he could not see what Lu Li saw.

Relying on his understanding of Zanpakutō Shikai, he guided Lu Li to communicate with himself deep in his soul. According to his theoretical analysis, even if Lu Li could not awaken his Zanpakutō, it was simply because his Zanpakutō did not tell him its true name, and he would wake up soon.

But in fact, Lu Li has not woken up since entering that strange state, which makes the usually calm Aizen a little panicked.

It's not that he was worried about Lu Li, but he and Lu Li were actually doing a "forbidden" experiment. If something happened to Lu Li in the dormitory, the secret of Aizen would be exposed, which would affect his grand plan.
