Chapter 379 The Truth About the Spiritual King

Chapter 379 The Truth About the Spiritual King

"It's just a simple analytical inference."

Aizen said, "Lu Jun may not know, but I saw records and pictures about the Soul King Palace in the Great Soul Book Corridor. Combined with what you told me, Lu Jun, that the Soul King is just a human wedge, the truth is somewhat intriguing."

"What does this have to do with the Spirit King Palace?"

Lu Li asked in confusion.

Aizen pulled out a piece of paper and drew a picture of the Soul King Palace on it, "What do you think this looks like, Lu-kun?"

Lu Li looked at the map, which showed the upper level of the Soul King Palace guarded by Squad Zero. The five areas intersected and connected in the center. With Sosuke's reminder, he discovered something was wrong, "Isn't this the Quincy's... Quincy Cross?"

"Yes, according to the Great Spirit Book Corridor, the Soul King Palace existed before the creation of the world. So can I assume that the Soul King Palace is the ancestral land of the Quincy?"

Aizen analyzed, "In other words, Yhwach is not the founder of the Quincy at all. He only got this title. There were Quincy before him, but he was the most powerful Quincy a thousand years ago. The real founder of the Quincy is most likely the Soul King."

Lu Li was very surprised after listening to Aizen's analysis. He didn't think too much when reading comics. He only focused on the exciting fighting and killing and didn't pay much attention to these details.

But after hearing what Sosuke said, it seemed like it was really the case.

Yhwach called the Soul King his father, and he also said he wanted to end this 'endless humiliation', and the Quincy also said that the Soul King's enemy is the God of Death.

Putting all these together, it is very likely that the Soul King is the ancestor of the Quincies. Is there anything more shameful than having one's own ancestor made into a human stick and worshipped?
After all, are the three realms of today really created rationally? In the original world, it seemed that there would be no problem for the Quincy to destroy the Hollows.

The comics always imply that the omniscient and omnipotent Spirit King acted voluntarily, so he did not resist when he was ambushed. But is this really the case?
If you think about some things carefully, you will find that there are many unreasonable things.

For example, what was wrong with the original complete world that required it to be divided into three realms again?

There are comments and analyses in the space saying that it is because there was no life or death in the original world, and the Voids and normal creatures lived together. The Voids would continuously devour humans, and eventually all humans in the world would be devoured, leaving only one Void, which would eventually lead to the collapse of the world.

Some people also say that in a world without birth and death, the souls of the living and the dead will be mixed together, and there will be no order of life and death.

Lu Li felt that many of the statements were not very reliable, and each had its own points that could not stand up to scrutiny. However, if they were viewed together, they did make some sense.

Lu Li searched the memories in his mind. He recalled the powerful Quincy of the Soul King Organization and Yhwach in the comics. When they used the power of the Soul King, that part of the Soul King's power showed hatred for the God of Death, which was an obvious desire for revenge.

Some comments say that Yhwach was most likely a soul that developed an independent consciousness from a part of the Soul King that was cut off. Yhwach and a part of the Soul King's body that was cut off believed that the betrayal of the five great nobles was shameful and a huge humiliation for them, so they wanted revenge on Soul Society and the God of Death.

And when Yhwach saw the Soul King's right arm supporting the collapsing world, he was also a little surprised, and said something like "Have you developed feelings for the world you protect?" It is obvious that he thinks the Soul King should not sympathize with these people.

When Lu Li was reading novels in the space, he remembered the history of creation described in the novels. A million years ago, the current Spirit King and the first heads of the five noble families at that time jointly created this world. Later, the Spirit King was betrayed by the Yashiro family of the five noble families.

In order to completely deprive the Soul King of his ability to resist, Tsunayashiro cut off his limbs, emptied his internal organs, and chopped up all of his organs, throwing them into the world.

In other words, the Soul King most likely created the world with the five nobles first, and then was made the cornerstone of a stable world.

To put it bluntly, the five nobles do not want a conscious king, all they want is a wedge to stabilize the world system, and they will become the real ones in power.

After a thousand years of bloody battle, Yhwach was killed by the cheating protagonist Ichigo Kurosaki. Hyoshubu Ichibei used Yhwach's corpse to create a new "Soul King", and the monk also thought of using Ichigo Kurosaki as the "Soul King".

The 'Spirit King' is more like a prop to them. It doesn't matter who it is. The best 'Spirit King' is a wedge without consciousness.

In this way, combined with Sosuke's inference, Lu Li suspected that the Spirit King might not be willing to be a wedge. He could also stabilize the world consciously, but in the end it was not in the interests of the five nobles.

It is for this reason that the Soul King's body tissues want revenge on the God of Death and want to end the Soul King's eternal humiliation.

As the descendants of the Soul King, the Quincies naturally bear this mission. After analyzing it in the end, Lu Li discovered that Yhwach might be the one standing on the side of "righteousness".

It’s just that the vast majority of the Death Gods did nothing wrong. They were born in this age and have no idea what happened millions of years ago. The education they received since childhood and their understanding of the world made them think that protecting the Soul King and safeguarding the stability of the Three Realms is justice.

Lu Li had no intention of denying this justice, just as Master Yamamoto probably knew the truth, but he still firmly protected the Soul Society.

This does not mean that he is serving the Five Great Nobles and the Central Forty-Six Chambers as a dog. It is just that since the world is already like this, he cannot let the world lose stability, which will lead to the destruction of countless lives.

"I didn't expect that the Quincy is the most ancient creature..."

Lu Li sighed, "The dragon from the West Shoal that appeared in the previous battle should be the predecessor of Xu, right?"

"I'm not sure about this. After all, the Great Spiritual Book Corridor only records things after the creation of the world. There are very few records about the Western Shao Bureau. That place was originally a wild land, and it was managed by a group of people randomly sent out after the creation of the world."

Aizen said, "But if those dragons were the creatures that existed before the creation of the Three Realms, then the originally unified world might not be the unreasonable world that was portrayed in later generations."

Lu Li felt that what Sosuke said made sense. He remembered that the situation in the West Shodown Bureau was described in the sister volume of the manga Bleach, and not all the dragons there were harmful.

Dragons have various functions. Some can cooperate with the fighters over there in combat, and their abilities complement each other. Some can be used in daily production. Dragons can grow food and other things on their bodies to feed many people.

From the small to the big, perhaps in the ancient world, those dragons could live in harmony with all kinds of creatures, and it was definitely not a terrible world in chaos. Thinking of this, Lu Li felt that the Spirit King might have been fooled into creating the Three Realms, and was betrayed by the five major families headed by Tsunamiyo and turned into a human stick.

After all, was the Spirit King truly “omniscient and omnipotent” before he created the Three Realms that operate under his power?

The world where Lu Li was born has a highly developed level of science. His company has a world-renowned research project called 'Laplace's Demon', which is said to use transcendental computing power to predict the future by calculating the movement of molecules.

The core theory is that since the creation of this world, the movement of all objects has been in accordance with laws. As long as there is enough computing power, we can understand everything in the past, present and future.

Of course, the company's project ultimately failed. Even though their technological level was already very high, even calculating the future within the local area of ​​the Earth was still very inaccurate. After all, the external force parameters of the universe also had a great influence, and the accuracy was only certain.

It is hard to say whether Lu Li's metaphysical omniscience and omnipotence in the world of death is related to computing power, but he feels that this kind of power is probably based on a closed space, and he must also be able to control the trajectory of everything in this world in order to be omniscient and omnipotent.

If we analyze it this way, then the Spirit King's omniscience and omnipotence are probably abilities that he only possessed after the three realms that were created by his power appeared.

In this case, when the Spirit King is not omniscient and omnipotent, it is entirely possible that he will be ambushed.

On the other hand, Yhwach inherited the greatest power of the Soul King. In the world created by the Soul King, he is basically omniscient and omnipotent.

And how did he fail in the end? It was because his omniscience and omnipotence failed to calculate when the world began to collapse. Although he seemed to be "degraded" and mistakenly believed that the future he saw was a dream, this was also a manifestation of the omniscience and omnipotence becoming unstable and being interfered with.

After figuring this out, Lu Li felt that he would have new ideas when facing Yhwach in the future.

"So what kind of world does Sosuke want to create?"

Lu Li inquired. Although he felt that the current three realms were unreasonable, he felt that a completely unified and integrated world might not be a good thing, and there was no need to go backwards like Jacky Cheung did.

“We need to improve the current world, make the existing rules more stable, and most importantly, give the corrupt system a new look.”

Aizen said briefly, "The existence of a power structure like the Five Great Nobles is too corrupt."

"No wonder Tosen-kun would follow you so willingly. He really wants revenge on the Tsunayashiro family, right?"

Lu Li sighed. Because he often hung out with Aizen, he also had a lot of dealings with Tosen and knew why the other party hated the Shinigami and the nobles so much.

"Although I'm a little sorry, we can't take action against the Tsunayashiro family right now. That family is quite troublesome and may have some powerful cards hidden."

Aizen said, "The ruthlessness of the Tsunayashiro family can be seen from the war a few days ago. In their eyes, the Shinigami are probably just consumables. When the Soul Society was in crisis, no one from their family took action."

"Hey, you're troubled because you don't have enough strength. Sosuke, come and make the Hogyoku and verify our hypothesis."

Lu Li said, and under Aizen's strange gaze, he took out a large sealed bottle, which contained the Spirit King's lungs.

"Mr. Lu, sometimes I really doubt your luck."

Aizen took the large bottle and said, "You went out the day before yesterday, right? And you found two organs at once?"

He just saw that the radar had no response, which meant that there were probably no Soul King organs in Soul Society within its detectable range, which meant that Lu Li had searched them all out.

The organs of the Spirit King should appear randomly in the Three Realms. It is a rare thing to find two at a time.

"I was thinking that after Sosuke has thoroughly researched it, he would help me make a Hogyoku. After all, the power of evolution is very tempting."

Lu Li smiled and said, "The experiment of virtualization failed on me. I can only hope that the broken jade can have new power."

"Captain Zaraki can rest in peace now. I didn't waste his remains at all."

Aizen told a hellish joke, "Because his spiritual pressure is too strong, it is more than enough for him to make two Hogyoku with the power of a Shinigami. If he were to make another Hogyoku with the power of a Hollow, he would probably be nagged by Harribel."

After a series of turmoil in Hueco Mundo, there are not many Achucas-level Hollows left. In fact, Harribel is quite dissatisfied with Aizen's various experiments in Hueco Mundo.

"Then there is nothing we can do. If we fall behind, we will be beaten. According to the prophecy passed down among the Quincies, I am afraid that Yhwach will revive in two hundred years. By then, all three worlds will be destroyed by him. If she wants to protect Hueco Mundo, she must be prepared to make some sacrifices."

Lu Li said, "Just leave the Xu from Xu Ye Palace alone."

Actually, he himself is quite hypocritical. From the perspective of the biological system, there is no distinction between the Shinigami and the Hollows, and the Hollows are also intelligent creatures to a certain extent. However, he would feel psychologically burdened if he were asked to kill a bunch of Shinigami to make Hogyoku, but he did not feel much guilt if he was asked to kill a group of animalistic Achukas.

After talking with Aizen and gaining insight into the truth of the world, they both naturally became eager to create the Hogyoku.

After the meeting, Aizen returned to the 5th Division barracks, ready to find an opportunity to leave behind a shadow clone, while his real body went to the Hueco Mundo to prepare to begin the final Hogyoku experiment.

At present, they have no shortage of materials, and it is not difficult to make two complete Hougyoku. Kenpachi Zaraki has not used up the soul power, and the Yachukas will be collected by Sal Apollo and it will be done soon. If it goes fast, everything will be ready when he goes to Hueco Mundo tomorrow.

By then they will know what kind of changes will occur when the complete Collapsing Jade, which combines the power of the void and the power of the god of death, is integrated with the power of the Spirit King.
