Looking at Duan Mu with blood constantly flowing from his pores, a strange color flashed in Aizen's eyes.
Originally, he thought that Duan Mu had brought enough surprises to him, but as the battle continued, Duan Mu showed his abilities that dazzled him again and again.
A powerful physique that is different from the god of death, like a virtual super-fast regeneration, eyes that can see through one's own mirror...
Even leaving aside the ability of the God of Death, there are still many strange things about Duan Mu.
It's a pity...
Aizen retracted his gaze and glanced in the direction of Mao's forty-sixth room.
There is not much time left for him to stay here.
Phew~~
Duan Mu took a breath, and the blood that was constantly seeping out of his pores gradually stopped flowing with this breath.
123 points!
As long as 123 experience points are invested in the body every second, it is enough to smooth out the burden brought to the body by two different types of instant coax!
After the previous confrontation, he invested 80,000 experience points in his body.
The remaining experience points are still...
124747!
A large part of these experience points will be used to recover from injuries.
I can’t hold on for long!
Thinking of this, Duan Mu stepped on the ground with one foot and rushed straight towards Aizen.
The light of fire and thunder suddenly lit up, illuminating the entire sunken area!
摪——!
The crisp sound of the blades colliding was heard, and before it stopped, it was covered up by a series of crisp sounds.
The two colors of red and golden light shine crazily, but no matter how fierce the thunder is, how strong the fire is...
The blue spiritual pressure in the center is as motionless as a rock under the waves!
gap!!
Duan Mu has experienced many battles, and although there are enemies who are stronger than him, it has never been like this. Even if he tries his best, he cannot break through the opponent's defense.
Just standing there, using just a Zanpakutō, he was able to defend himself against all attacks.
摪摪摪……
The impact of the blade was still heard, and Duan Mu could clearly feel the Zanpakutō in his hand groaning in pain. It was not the difference in texture of the blade, but the difference in spiritual pressure!
Regardless of physical strength, just talking about the strength of spiritual pressure, my own spiritual pressure is already much higher than that of Zaihou without Swastika.
But with such a strong amount of spiritual pressure combined with physical strength, and the Shunju combined with Kidō and Hakuda, he was still at an absolute disadvantage when facing Aizen.
If calculated based on system values, how strong is his spiritual pressure?
Having said that, Duanmu did not stop attacking. Instead, he raised Shunpo to the extreme and continued to attack Aizen in the center from all directions.
After almost every attack, Duan Mu would be severely injured.
Although he clearly doesn't have the ability to use Kyoka Suigetsu, Aizen's Kyoka Suigetsu seems to be everywhere. Every time he blocks Duanmu's attack, he will kill Duanmu instantly!
Puff puff puff~~
The sound of the blade slicing across the body continued to sound.
But before the blood flows out, Duan Mu's injuries will heal.
Add more! Add more! Add more!
Duan Mu roared crazily in his mind, and his experience points were consumed rapidly under the crazy offensive.
The long knife in his hand was crazily infused with spiritual pressure and lightning by Duan Mu. Under the fire, spiderweb-like traces appeared on the surface, as if it would break at any time!
Attack! Attack! Attack!
Speed up! Speed up! Speed up!
The swing speed of the long sword in his hand became faster and faster, and the instant step under his feet became more and more crazy.
At first Duanmu's plan was just to hold Aizen back, but after successive setbacks, he now only has one thought in his mind...
That is...
Use your own knife to chop him to death!!
The Kyoka Suigetsu in Aizen's hand lit up with a dim light, and powerful spiritual pressure continued to flow into it.
It hasn't even been a minute since Duan Mu rushed here.
But in just one minute, he changed from the initial research mentality to taking it seriously, and the spiritual pressure around his body continued to increase.
Is he getting stronger?
Aizen is a little unsure, but Duan Mu's sword is getting heavier every time. Even if the interval between two swords is less than a second, when a new sword comes, the power it carries will be more or less. It's a little stronger than before.
And the degree of becoming stronger...
Proportional to the degree of injury?
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he always felt that the more serious Duan Mu was injured, the more powerful the sword would be after recovery!
Even though the strength of spiritual pressure has remained unchanged, the increase in power on the long sword is definitely not my illusion.
Aizen held the knife with his right hand raised high, and after blocking the knife that hit his head like a mountain, he raised his head and looked at Duan Mu.
It's too late...
If he could discover Duan Mu's specialness earlier, he would still have a lot of time to observe it.
But now...
It's too late!
He couldn't remember the last time he had such a strong desire to explore.
Too early——!
Duan Mu stared at Aizen and couldn't help but sigh.
Since entering the Seireitei, he has always regarded Aizen as an imaginary enemy and a target for exploration. Before the battle began, Duanmu thought that even if he was not Aizen's opponent, he should be able to cause some trouble to him.
But now it seems that it is still too early for me to fight Aizen.
Duan Mu 'looked' at the system interface in his mind.
Current experience value: 31000.
More than 200,000 experience points were almost exhausted, but the result was only wrinkles and dust on Aizen's clothes.
Such a result made Duan Mu feel unwilling but helpless.
Even so, Duan Mu's eyes were still extremely calm, and he was not affected by the emotions in his heart.
Aizen is different from any enemy he has ever encountered. Fighting with him is not about enjoyment, but about survival.
If you are not careful, you will be in danger of catastrophe.
even……
Maybe there is no chance to even add some points to your physique.
Therefore, Duan Mu will not let any factors affect him, even the so-called instinct.
give up?
Never thought about it at all.
Duan Mu pressed the blade down, and the long knife suddenly dropped a few points, but...
The few points that fell were not because Aizen couldn't withstand his strength, but because the blade of Kyoka Suigetsu sank into the blade of the long sword.
At this time, the long knife in the wooden hand was already full of cracks, and as the force was pressed down, fragments continued to fall from the fractures.
If it hadn't been completely enveloped by Duan Mu's spiritual pressure and maintained its form, it might have been turned into fragments in this high-intensity collision.
His brows furrowed slightly, the spiritual pressure on the long knife in his hand shook, and Duan Mu retreated.
However……
At this moment, Aizen, who had never moved, suddenly moved.
The whole person disappeared on the spot very suddenly.
Duan Mu's pupils shrank, his nerves were tense to the extreme at this moment, and the spiritual pressure all over his body was released like a dam bursting.
Coming!
"It seems that Yin's vision is indeed better than mine."
A chuckle came from Duan Mu's side.
Almost as soon as he heard the first word, Duan Mu swung the long knife in his hand towards the place where the sound came from.
"It's my arrogance to compare you to floating dust. You indeed emit candlelight that is enough to attract my attention. Although it is extremely weak, it is already conspicuous enough in the dim and lightless Soul Society!" Calm and without any hint of connotation.
When the emotional words came out of Aizen's mouth, the index finger of his right hand touched Duan Mu's horizontal slash.
The moment his fingers touched the blade, Duan Mu vaguely seemed to hear a shrill scream coming from the sword, and the spiritual pressure on the sword instantly dimmed.
Pa~~
With a crisp sound, the nearly 1.6 meter long knife turned into countless fragments.
And after smashing the sword with one finger, it went straight to Duan Mu!
Danger~
The body then sends crazy signals to the brain.
But they were all ignored by Duan Mu, as if he didn't see Aizen's finger, his eyes were fixed on the Zanpakutō with only the hilt left in his hand.
He didn't feel distressed because his Zanpakutō was damaged, because...
The damage was what Duan Mu had always wanted!
"Suck~~"
Duan Mu opened his mouth and took a deep breath.
The surrounding spirits quickly condensed under his breath, forming a flow of air visible to the naked eye, rushing crazily towards his body.
At this moment, Duan Mu moved!
The Zanpakutō, which had no blade but only a handle, was slowly lifted up.
Kakakaka~~
As it was lifted, dense cracks like spider webs appeared on the surface of the dark knife handle.
Buzz~~
The white spots changed from few to many, and dazzling white light bloomed from the cracks.
At the critical moment, at this moment when the blade is damaged!
Shirogane, who had been suppressed by the Zanpakutō, gained the upper hand for the first time.
All this may seem like a long time ago, but in fact it only takes place in the blink of an eye.
The moment the white spots bloomed, the countless blade fragments that exploded seemed to be attracted, and they all attacked Aizen, and came into contact with his approaching finger.
The two collided, causing a violent impact.
As the loud rumbling sound echoed, Duan Mu spurted out blood and his body was shot backwards.
Aizen looked slightly surprised.
Before he could stabilize his body, Duan Mu released the handle of the knife in his hand.
"Same and different..."
Although the handle of the knife was released, it did not fall to the ground. Instead, it was suspended in mid-air. As Duan Mu drank softly, its white light shone brightly!
"——Ju Ming!"
The fragments that disintegrated with Aizen's finger formed a circle, surrounding Aizen.
A pitch-black space was created in an instant.
The sunken arena in front of the Penitent Palace was replaced by a wasteland.
The sky above is replaced by a hand-painted sky.
Azure!
Different from the original dark night sky, the hand-painted sky at this time is so bright and beautiful.
The originally funny hand painting seemed to come alive at this moment.
The sun and moon emit dazzling white light, and all the white spots on the blue sky are transformed into stars that complement the sun and moon, illuminating the entire field together.
"oh?"
Aizen observed this space with great interest.
He is no stranger to Duan Mu's initial understanding, because whether it is the cognitive synchronization after Aaronillo's death or Nnoitra, who once suffered a loss at the hands of Duan Mu, he can easily grasp the knowledge about Duan Mu.
Information on the Zanpakutō's abilities.
But the current space was slightly different from the information he had obtained.
When fighting Nnoitra, didn't he fully master the beginning?
Although there are only two stages of Zanpakutō: Shikai and Swastika, these two stages do not mean that they cannot be divided in more detail.
The Haigai and Swastikachi that many people initially master are not the true form of a Zanpakutō. As they are improved step by step, the power they can exert will be further enhanced!
The initial interpretation of Duan Mu should be the same.
What’s next?
Aizen was not in a hurry to destroy this space, he wanted to see what kind of surprise Duan Mu could bring him.
However……
What happened next was beyond Aizen's expectations.
Bang~~
The newly formed realm collapsed suddenly at this moment, and the next second, Duanmu and Aizen, who were standing on both sides of the ring, once again appeared in the sunken area in front of the Confession Palace.
At the same time, in the deep cell No. 4 of the Palace of Confession.
Yoruichi, Sui Feng and others all looked at the front of the Confession Palace with all their attention.
It was naturally impossible for them not to see the disappearance of Duanmu and Aizen. Judging from what happened before the two disappeared, it should be Duanmu's ability after the Zanpakutō was released.
"Is it similar to Dong Xian's ability to clear out insects?" Sui Feng frowned and subconsciously said.
Although she didn't know about Duanmu's Zanpakutō's abilities, she was not surprised that Duanmu's 'sealed' Zanpakutō could be released.
When Duanmu returned to Soul Society from Hueco Mundo, although he deceived Mao's Forty-sixth Chamber, Zaihou knew very well that Duanmu had indeed been to Hueco Mundo, and the images received by Mao's Forty-sixth Chamber were also true.
Yoruichi shook his head and looked seriously at the place where the two disappeared.
Originally, Broken Bee wanted to step forward to support Duan Mu, but she stopped him.
The reason why she did this was not because she wanted to sit on the sidelines, but because they intervened rashly, Duan Mu might be hurt instead.
Among the three of them, Duan Mu is the only one who can see through the mirror. If he and Zombie join the battlefield, the target they will attack will most likely not be Aizen, but Duan Mu.
She had previously mistook Broken Bee for Aizen, and had never had any doubts from beginning to end. She even didn't notice Duan Mu's arrival at all before Duan Mu grabbed her wrist.
It can be seen that even if Duan Mu reminded the two of them during the battle, the two of them would not be able to hear it at all!
so……
It's not that I don't want to help, it's that I can't help.
"Um?"
The expressions of Ye Yi and Sui Feng changed.
Vaguely, there seemed to be some broken sound.
Duan Mu and Aizen appeared at the same place where they disappeared. Seeing this, Yoruichi and others immediately looked at Duan Mu.
It doesn't look like he's injured.
The two disappeared within a few seconds. Was Duan Mu Shijie's ability cracked so quickly?
…
"What, is this the end?"
Aizen frowned, looked at Duan Mu in the distance, and found that the last knife handle in Duan Mu's hand had disappeared without a trace.
Has the Zanpakutō itself reached its limit?
Or should I say...
"Should I say thank you?"
Duan Mu's words interrupted Aizen's thoughts.
As soon as the words fell, Duan Mu disappeared on the spot.
When he reappeared, he was still in front of Aizen, holding his right hand empty, and slashing downwards as if holding a knife.
Zheng~~~
The whistle of the knife sounded, and a dazzling light of the knife came in an instant.
A long knife suddenly appeared in Duan Mu's originally empty palm. Its style was the same as before except that the handle of the knife changed to white, and the blade was still pitch black.
When Aizen saw this, a flash of disappointment flashed in his eyes. As the spiritual pressure surged in the mirror in his hand, he raised his sword to meet him.
Aizen did not hold back on this slash.
Pa~
Almost the moment the blades collided, the long knife in Duan Mu's hand collapsed again.
But Aizen didn't stop with his sword.
Phew——!
A huge wound appeared from Duan Mu's left shoulder to his waist and abdomen, almost cutting off his entire body.
"Confinement! Confinement! Confinement!"
At this moment, Duan Mu chanted rapidly.
Um?
Aizen's expression suddenly changed, and the space around Kyoka Suigetsu seemed to be frozen, and even the spiritual pressure carried by the sword solidified at this moment!
However, this confinement only lasted for a moment, and the confinement around Jing Hua Shui Yue suddenly disappeared.
But for Duan Mu, this moment was enough.
Buzz~~
A dull whistling sound suddenly came out, and in Aizen's field of vision, a fist expanded rapidly.
And behind the fist were Duan Mu's almost crazy eyes.
Duan Mu had expected the Zanpakutō to break again, and he never thought about using the new Zanpakutō to resist Aizen.
From the beginning, his plan was to condense the confinement ability into one point at the expense of the Zanpakutō's shattering, and raise it to the extreme!
thereby……
Get this moment for yourself!
Bang~
Amidst the violent explosion, flames and thunder radiated, and Aizen flew backwards.
Vaguely, there seemed to be the sound of breaking glass!
