Chapter 225 Escape from Hell
The me you see is not the real me.

When the seal of the fifth noble ancestor fell on Xia Mu.

Xia Mu's body suddenly dissipated, leaving only some spirit particles scattered between heaven and earth. Then, due to the special environment in hell, they were quickly contaminated and disappeared.

The real figure of Xia Mu suddenly appeared in front of the gate of hell standing in mid-air.

Compared with the magnificent Gate of Hell, his body was extremely small.

But in the eyes of the five noble ancestors, it was extremely eye-catching, making them pay special attention to it.

Looking at the Gate of Hell which has completely taken shape.

The next moment, extremely powerful spiritual power burst out from Xia Mu's body. After passing through the surface of the body and colliding with the power in the surrounding air, it immediately turned into spiritual pressure, carrying an extremely terrifying high pressure, and rushed towards the gate of hell.

In an instant, the originally silent gate of hell was activated, and the white skeletons on it began to squirm wildly. The originally tightly closed door slowly opened, and an irresistible force burst out from the gap in the door.

Xia Mu had no choice but to continue releasing his spiritual power to contend with this overwhelming force and prevent the terrifying impact it brought.

As long as you can withstand this terrifying force from hell and rush into the door, you can return to the world.

But obviously, this is not good news for the five noble ancestors.

After seeing Xia Mu easily get rid of his spell that could seal time and space, the fifth noble ancestor's face was not very good.

The extremely obscure words came out of his mouth again.

He continued to manipulate the power of hell, and black chains sprang out from the ground, breaking through the air one after another and flying towards Xia Mu.

Tsk tsk tsk!

The sound of breaking through the air came.

Xia Mu ignored it.

His expression was solemn. He held a knife in one hand and took out a card he carried with him in the other.

Originally, after falling into hell, he had not thought of using this thing. After all, his own spiritual power was already very strong. Even if he had been in the Bankai standby state, it was impossible to completely deplete his spiritual power in this state.

But at this moment, to be on the safe side and to be able to leave hell, he still used the backup battery.

Over the years, the spiritual power sealed in the cards during Xia Mu's spare time was activated, and the spiritual power of the same origin poured into Xia Mu's body.

Natsuki finally doesn't have to worry about the consumption after his Bankai ability is fully activated.

In an instant, he exerted his Bankai power to the fullest extent.

In Hueco Mundo, as Aizen mutated, the will of the Soul King revived in Natsuki's body. Natsuki was unwilling to submit to the will of the Soul King and chose to fight against it. In the end, because he annihilated the will of the Soul King in his Zanpakutō, he was punished by heaven and exiled to the spirit world.

After arriving in hell, although there are no spirit particles here, perhaps because the will of the Soul King has been erased, the power of the Soul King fragments absorbed by Natsuki's Zanpakutō has become purer.

This caused his Zanpakuto to evolve once again.

As a result, the power after Bankai also increased by several times.

A strange stream of light like rippling waves appeared around Xia Mu's body.

The spell chains of the fifth noble were dissolved and disappeared as soon as they approached the light.

Upon seeing this, the founder of Shifengyuan stomped his foot on the ground, and the next moment, his body flew up.

He clenched his fist and punched out.

Several cracks appeared with his fist as the center.

The space was torn apart by his punch.

This is enough to show how terrifying the Shifengyuan founder's fighting skills, or in other words, his close combat ability, have reached.

However, such attacks were still resolved by Xia Mu.

The ancestor of the five great nobles was indeed very powerful. He was the dominant force during his lifetime, and after falling into hell, he was still the dominant force.

However, their strength has its limits after all.

If there were no limits, it would be impossible to fall into hell, and it would be even more impossible to keep struggling in hell and be unable to return to the world of spirits.

Obvious.

Even the founder of Shifengyuan could not destroy Xiamu's power that could overturn everything and reverse everything with his fist that could tear through space.

Between the flickering waves.

The founder of Shifengyuan suddenly found that he appeared on the ground.

It was as if he had never moved.

No, he moved.

But time was reversed and everything was restarted.

"!!!"

This scene not only shocked the ancestor of the fifth noble family, but also the ancestor of Shifengyuan, who was involved in the incident, was extremely shocked.

But even so.

There was no way they would give up their only chance to return to reality.

The ancestor of the rotten wood also took action.

The knife light flashed, layer upon layer, like a surging river, rushing towards Xia Mu.

The founder of Shifengyuan jumped out, straddled the long river, and rode the river to attack Xia Mu again.

The ancestor of the fifth noble family also performed a spell, and powerful power was instantly bestowed on the ancestor of Shifengyuan.

Although they all have their own selfish motives, at critical moments, their interests are the same.

They all want to rely on Xia Mu to help them return to the spirit world.

As for who can return to the spirit world and who cannot go back?

That’s all for later.

The three of them joined forces, with the founder of Shifengyuan as the attacker, and launched an extremely powerful attack.

The waves of light surrounding Xia Mu's body vibrated.

Xia Mu's face turned even paler.

This is a force powerful enough to turn the world upside down.

Whether one wants to dissolve them, reverse time, restart them, or graft and transfer them, it will consume Xia Mu's extremely terrifying spiritual power.

At this time, Xia Mu could only choose the method with the least consumption.

That is to distort the space in front of the founder of Shifengyuan so that the opponent's attack will miss.

As for where to hit?
The ancestor Tsunayashiro was fighting with the ancestor Shiba, and naturally noticed that Natsuki had broken away from the entanglement of the other three ancestors and came to the front of the gate of hell. He secretly cursed these three people as "waste" in his heart and wanted to personally take action to solve the trouble of Natsuki.

But this guy Zhiba kept pestering him, making it difficult for him to be distracted.

In terms of status, when the five great nobles were first established, Tsunayashiro was the leader of the five great nobles, but in terms of strength, Tsunayashiro had no advantage over Shiba. The reason why Tsunayashiro was able to become the leader of the five great nobles was only because he was the one who led many things.

Shiba's strength should not be underestimated if he is not strong enough.

It was impossible to bring him and the other four people to hell back then.

"I should have known better than to provoke this hypocritical guy."

The Tsunayashiro ancestor felt the determination in the heart of the Shiba ancestor at this moment, and couldn't help but say secretly in his heart.

If they hadn't provoked Shiba with words, the five of them would have attacked the living person together and the matter would have been easily resolved, and these unexpected events would not have happened.

As for preventing Shiba from returning to the spirit world?

You can definitely wait until later to make plans.

However, now that things have come to this, it would be of no avail even if the ancestor Tsunayashiro regretted it.

Just as he and Shiba continued to entangle.

Suddenly, a huge fist wind rushed towards him.

As a last resort, the ancestor of Tsunayashiro could only activate the ability of Yanluo Jingdian.

In an instant, all the attacks coming towards him were bounced back.

Boom! !
A huge mushroom cloud rose from hell.

Amidst the billowing smoke and dust.

The ancestor of Tsunamiyo jumped out with an ugly look on his face.

He looked at the four Fengyuan ancestors and the other three, "What are you three doing?"

The expressions of the ancestors of Shihouin, Kuchiki, and the fifth noble ancestor were not very good. They did not expect that when the attack was about to fall on Xia Mu, such a strange change would happen. Xia Mu actually distorted the space and forcibly transferred the position of the ancestors of Shihouin, so that the attack originally fell on Xia Mu went towards Tsunayashiro.

They did not answer the words of the Tsunayashiro ancestor.

Instead, they all looked up into the air.

Xia Mu stood in front of the Gate of Hell. At this moment, the gap in the Gate of Hell was wide enough for someone to pass through.

The surging power of hell burst out, preventing Xia Mu from entering.

But under the distortion of Natsuki's Bankai power, Natsuki found a tiny gap and soon, half of his foot stepped into the gate of hell. He was only half a step away from his departure.

In the smoke and dust, the Shiba ancestor also appeared.

Instead of feeling disappointed, he became complacent and started to mock several people.

"It seems that none of you can return to the spirit world."

"Just stay with me and struggle in hell until the end of time."

"Shut up!" After hearing what Shiba ancestor said, Tsunayashiro ancestor immediately spoke angrily, "It's all because of you that we lost the chance to go back."

"You obviously discovered his existence, why didn't you tell us about it? If there is anything, can't we discuss it privately?"

"As long as we discuss it in advance and make plans in advance, we can definitely return to the spirit world safely."

At this time, seeing that there was no hope of returning, the ancestor Tsunamiyo began to pass the buck.

In his words, all the mistakes were made by the Shiba ancestor.

He never mentioned that it was his words that caused the Shiba founder to turn against him.

The Shiba ancestor curled his lips and was too lazy to refute the words of the Tsunayashiro ancestor. After years of getting along, they knew each other inside and out and knew each other's personalities. There was no point in refutation. Similarly, they could not kill each other, so even if they were disgusted with each other, they could only accept each other's existence.

Seeing that the Shiba ancestor ignored him, the Tsunayashiro ancestor didn't say anything more.

He continued to look at Xia Mu.

In a short period of time, Xia Mu, despite the terrifying pressure, went a little deeper, and half of his body was already in the gate of hell.

At this moment, a ruthless light flashed in the eyes of the Tsunayashiro ancestor.

He said in a deep voice: "Since we can't escape from hell, you, a living being who accidentally fell into hell, can't escape either. Just stay in hell and accompany us."

As he spoke, the Yanluo Mirror in the hands of the Tsunamiyo ancestor burst out with powerful power, and the power of hell hidden in the body of the Tsunamiyo ancestor was stimulated by it. As he slashed, the surging power of hell rushed upwards, but not towards Xia Mu.

At this time, there was no need to stop Xia Mu.

Instead, head towards the gate of hell.

As the powerful force of hell was added to the Gate of Hell, in an instant, the repulsive force surging from the Gate of Hell became even stronger. Xia Mu had originally stepped half of his body into it, but at this moment, he was forcibly squeezed out.

"Ok?"

The original founder of Tsunayashiro originally wanted to give Natsuki some strength and prevent him from leaving.

But they didn't expect that there would be an unexpected gain. If the power of hell was strong enough, perhaps Xia Mu could be forced out of the gate of hell. And if Xia Mu still had spiritual power, they might be able to use it to reopen the gate of hell and help them return to the spirit world.

The other ancestors were already filled with despair because Xia Mu was already halfway into the gate of hell.

Seeing this scene, my mind immediately became active again.

They also burst out with power in an instant.

The power of hell from three more ancestors poured into the gate of hell.

In an instant, the repulsive force of the Gate of Hell reached its peak.

Xia Mu, who had originally stepped in, was completely squeezed out.

The Shiba founder was aware of the other four's plans and was planning to take action, but in the end, he did not do so.

After all, there was no deep friendship between him and Xia Mu.

The reason he took action before was simply because he couldn't stand Tsunayashiro.

At this moment, whether Xia Mu could withstand the pressure from these people and return to the spirit world, or be forced to stay in hell, had nothing to do with him.

There was only one thing that concerned him.

That is, these guys have no chance of returning to the spirit world.

In front of the gate of hell.

Xia Mu felt like a duckweed in the wind. The strong wind was raging and he could hardly move himself, let alone control his own body.

The power of hell that gushed out from the gate of hell was terrifying enough.

He didn't expect that at this time, the ancestors of these great nobles would be so disgusting.

What can I say?

Nothing to say.

There is no point in complaining or spitting.

At this moment, he could only think of a way to get out of his current predicament.

"Everything changes!"

Natsuki used the power of Bankai to its fullest extent.

At the same time, all the cards he carried were taken out.

Three more cards appeared in his hand.

All the spiritual power sealed in the cards exploded and acted on Xia Mu's Bankai. Time and space were all reversed and reorganized at this moment.

However, this is hell.

The power of hell is opposite to spiritual power in nature. Not to mention that four of the five great noble ancestors released their own power of hell at the same time and attacked Xia Mu.

Even if Xia Mu burst out with all his strength and exerted the power of Bankai to the extreme, he only found himself in the situation where half of his body was stepping into the gate of hell.

There is still something missing in order to fully enter the gate of hell.

"Since this power is so resistant to my leaving, I will accept you."

At the critical moment, Xia Mu suddenly changed his thinking.

The next moment, he no longer resisted the power of hell as before, but instead used Feiyuan's unique ability to absorb the power of hell.

When he first arrived in hell, he realized the unusualness of the power of hell. After feeling it a little, he decisively gave up the power of hell.

Because this is the power of death that is the opposite of the spirit particle.

If absorbed, they will be completely assimilated into Hell, and will never be able to return to the world of the living.

But at this moment, before leaving, Xia Mu had to choose to integrate some of the power of hell in order to reduce the resistance of the power of hell to himself.

As Xia Mu changed his mind.

The power of hell that originally gushed out from the gate of hell and attacked him, preventing him from returning to the spiritual world, was instantly absorbed by Natsuki, and the power of Bankai was used to the extreme by Natsuki.

Originally only half of his body had stepped into the gate of hell, but now, his entire body has entered it.

"How could this be?"

Seeing this happen, the ancestor Tsunayashiro found it hard to accept it.

It was already unacceptable that the other party had used treacherous means to break free from their restraints and stepped into the gates of hell.

Knowing that he could not use the other party to return to the spirit world, he planned to leave Xia Mu in hell to accompany them.

Unexpectedly, even when they all released the power of hell and amplified the gate of hell, Xia Mu still managed to step into the gate of hell.

This made the ancestor Tsunayashiro extremely angry.

Ever since I was schemed against by that guy Shiba countless years ago.

All five of them fell into hell and could no longer interfere with the spirit world.

In hell, he had thought about taking revenge on this guy Shiba.

At one point, he joined forces with several others to target Shiba.

But it can't be killed.

As a special existence in the chaotic world.

Their existence, like that of the Spirit King, is extremely special.

They are living beings that existed before death.

Even if you fall into hell, it will be difficult to erase.

Maybe it is possible to suppress Shiba, but it is impossible to eliminate Shiba.

Instead, after a long time had passed, they had to give up their grudges and choose to work together in order to rectify hell and transform it into an environment suitable for their own survival.

This is also the origin of the five cities of bones in the Avici Hell.

But secretly, the five of them never gave up on returning to the spirit world.

Shiba, who initially dragged them into hell, also had regrets judging from his previous actions.

Among the five people, Tsunayashiro's mind was the most profound. Before he fell into hell that year, he had left a backup plan, and at one point he almost completed his plan and returned to the spiritual world.

Also because I almost succeeded.

When the hope of returning to the spirit world appeared before him again, it was quickly shattered once again.

The Tsunayashiro ancestor roared in dissatisfaction.

"Ahhhhh!!"

The roar echoed in hell, venting all his anger.

Unlike the original Tsunayashiro who just wanted to leave Hell.

As the person who has stepped into the gates of hell, Xia Mu has more things to consider.

Unlike falling into hell, the journey back is extremely difficult.

The power of hell turned into strong wind, constantly tearing him apart.

Even here, there is no such terrifying resistance as when you first step into the gates of hell.

But the laws of hell strictly prohibit anyone who has fallen into hell from returning to the world of spirits. During this process, Xia Mu can only rely on his own spiritual power to go upstream.

In addition, because of the previous integration of some of the power of hell, it is in the process of countercurrent.

Xia Mu could feel that behind him, the laws of hell were tracking him and trying to pull him back.

This is the reason why those who have fallen into hell cannot return to the world.

Xia Mu didn't know whether he would be pulled back to hell after returning to the real world.

But for him, there is a reason why he must go back.

Finally, when it was forcing its way through the gate of hell under the terrifying pressure.

Finally, he felt the spirit again.

We are already approaching the world of spirit particles.

Hueco Mundo.

Next to the sinkhole after the destruction of the Great Void Forest.

The place where Xia Mu originally fell into hell.

In the void, the black power of hell suddenly appeared, filled with despair and dead silence. The void itself is a desperate creature, but compared to the power of hell, the void is nothing.

Immediately afterwards, the power of hell gathered.

The gate of hell made of bones emerged.

Then, slowly open.

Xia Mu's figure jumped out from it.

Returning to the spirit world, even if it was Hueco Mundo, every inch of his flesh and blood, every cell, were cheering and rejoicing. Although he did not stay in hell for a long time, he had had enough of that place.

As uglier as hell is, the world of the living is as beautiful.

Click!

Click!

At this moment, thunder suddenly emerged from the sky and attacked Xia Mu.

This was part of the Spirit King's power that had remained here before, representing the world. It showed a sense of rejection towards Xia Mu and wanted to exile Xia Mu again.

At the same time, black chains like the gate of hell emerged and pulled towards Xia Mu's body. It was the power of hell that wanted to pull Xia Mu back to hell.

Faced with internal and external troubles, it seems that Xia Mu has no choice but to return to hell.

But Xia Mu did not despair.

"Spirit King, do you really think that you can completely control everything in this world and the fate of all living beings?"

Xia Mu is not Dong Tianbao, so he did not say "My fate is in my own hands" at this time.

If he were in hell, Xia Mu might be powerless.

But now that we have returned to the world of Lingzi, the Spirit King no longer has the final say in everything.

In an instant.

With Xia Mu as the center, countless spirit particles within the range of Lingli were all plundered by Xia Mu.

The power of Bankai is activated again.

Grafting and transfer!
The remaining power of the Soul King that repelled Natsuki, and the power that surged out of the gate of hell and wanted to pull Natsuki into hell, were combined together by Natsuki using the power of Bankai.

Xia Mu, who was originally in between the two, got out calmly.

In an instant, the ultimate force of life and the ultimate force of death collided.

This is the collision between the power of the Spirit King and the power of Hell, and also the collision of two worlds.

The rumbling sound echoed, and the three realms were once again plunged into shock.
