The genius of Naruto is a bit ordinary.

"Do you want me to admit defeat?" Xia Li looked at Ming Jing Zhishui who had a somewhat morbid smile on his face.

I was a little surprised. Could it be that the other party still couldn't escape the influence of the virtualization, and changed from the dignified woman in palace dress to the sickly and delicate look she is now?

This... is really a bit sinful.

However, Xia Li also smiled and said, "But based on the current situation, it is still a little short."

"Master Sword Master is really stubborn. You were clearly at a disadvantage in the fight just now, but you still refuse to admit defeat..." Ming Jing Zhishui's smile slowly disappeared, and a strange red light appeared in his eyes.

"Then I will defeat the Master Sword Master head-on and thoroughly!"

Mingjing Shisui looked at Xia Li and said, "Obviously I was here first, but the Sword Master likes Unohana and Zaraki Kenpachi more. It was obviously me who came here first!"

Xia Li was a little speechless. Has he really become a yandere?

He fought against Unohana and Kenpachi Zaraki only because they had things that Xia Li needed to learn. Otherwise, he would not have done these useless things.

However, it is obviously not feasible to reason with Mingjing Zhishui now.

Ming Jing Zhi Shui laughed a little crazily at this time, and said, "This time, after I defeat the Sword Master, the Sword Master will not be able to ignore me anymore, and will have to choose to keep fighting me!"

"If you can do it." Xia Li did not refuse after hearing this.

If Ming Jing Shisui could really defeat him, then he wouldn't mind completing Ming Jing Shisui's idea.

But, alas...

Xia Li never thought he would lose!

"Well, it's a deal then, Master Sword Master!" Upon hearing this, Ming Jing Zhishui seemed to get excited as well, his face flushed with excitement.

Then, the spiritual pressure on Mingjing Shisui's body exploded again, and countless lightning flashed in this Zanpakuto space.

Xia Li watched this scene and understood what Ming Jing Zhi Shui wanted to do.

"Form Five - Annihilation."

It seems that Ming Jing Shisui has also discovered that even with her current spiritual pressure state, if she wants to gain an advantage in the fight with Xia Li, she can only compete in terms of spiritual pressure.

Types like the Four and Five are sword types that are transformed based on the Kidō, and their power is indeed linked to the amount of spiritual pressure.

Like other sword types, it tests the level of kendo. Even if Ming Jing Shisui uses it, he will be at a disadvantage.

Xia Li also had no idea of ​​using the Five Forms. After all, the scene just now had proved that even if the Five Forms he used could compete with the opponent, he still could not withstand the opponent's ability.

At least Xia Li had no idea whether Ming Jing Zhi Shui's ability had changed after he became virtual.

But its essential effect will definitely not change, that is, after seeing through the opponent, you can absolutely cut off the opponent.

The ability of the rule system, so even if the sword type used by Xia Li is stronger, it will probably be cut off directly. This is determined by the rules.

Unless there is a gap in the spiritual pressure between them, but it is obvious that Ming Jing Shisui's spiritual pressure is higher than Xia Li's at this time...

Then what should be done?

In fact, it is very simple. All you have to do is play to your strengths, that is, in kendo.

Xia Li looked at the clear and calm water in the sky, holding the hilt of the sword in his hand, and then slowly walked towards the other party.

Ming Jing Zhishui looked at Xia Li who was walking towards her, completely unaware of why the other party was so confident. At this moment, she also felt something was wrong in her heart.

However, Ming Jing Zhishui was also comforting herself, thinking that everything would be absolutely fine, Xia Li's current strength was not as strong as hers, so she would definitely win this time!

"Form Five - Annihilation!" The next moment, Ming Jing Zhishui gathered all the lightning on the sword and then slashed towards Xia Li.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning blasted towards Xia Li.

The moment the lightning approached Xia Li, Xia Li's figure turned into a sword shadow and disappeared in front of Ming Jing Zhishui.

At this moment, Ming Jing Zhishui's pupils shrank. After all, this was her space, so she knew what Xia Li wanted to do.

Moreover, after all, Ming Jing Shisui also contains countless spiritual pressures belonging to Xia Li in her body, and there is a very high connection between them, so she even knows what Xia Li wants to do.

However, it cannot be stopped, nor can it be imitated.

In just a moment, a sword shadow quickly spread throughout the entire Zanpakuto space.

When it spread and touched Ming Jing Zhi Shui, she still wanted to resist, but she found that she couldn't even touch it, so she had no way to defend herself.

Soon, the sword shadow enveloped the entire Zanpakuto space.

The moment he was enveloped, the original scenery in front of Ming Jing Zhishui's eyes had completely disappeared, leaving only a space with only a sword.

In this space, there are countless swords of various types, ranging from complete and exquisite swords to broken and rusty swords...all can be found here.

At this time, Ming Jing Zhi Shui finally saw Xia Li's figure. He saw him walking towards him. With every step he took, all the swords behind him would turn into light spots and condense in his hands.

At this moment, Ming Jing Shisui also gripped the hilt of the sword and decided to compete with Xia Li in kendo.

Deep in Ming Jing Zhishui's heart, she seemed to feel something was wrong. She clearly shouldn't compete with Xia Li in kendo, but at this moment... she seemed unable to change her decision.

It was as if some force forced her to make this choice.

Finally, all the sword shadows finally gathered in Xia Li's hand, forming a beautiful sword.

At this time, Xia Li looked at Ming Jing Zhi Shui and swung his sword at her.

At this moment, Ming Jing Zhi Shui seemed to see thousands of swords swinging at her at the same time...

Ming Jing Zhishui's pupils contracted, and she tried her best to stop these swords, but no matter how hard she tried, she could only survive. These thousands of swords were simply not something her sword could stop.

The next moment her body was pierced directly by these thousands of swords, leaving her no chance at all.

At this moment, the originally spreading sword shadow shrank again, and finally condensed into a sword, which was now placed on Ming Jing Zhishui's neck.

"You lose." Xia Li looked at Ming Jing Zhi Shui in front of him and said softly.

"This is..." Ming Jing Zhi Shui seemed to wake up at this moment, looking at Xia Li in front of him and asking confusedly, what happened just now. Why did he choose to take the opponent's sword?

"No thoughts, no ideas, the netherworld kills." Xia Li uttered a few words, "Eighth Form - No Thoughts, the Netherworld Kills!"

This is the killing move unique to kendo that Xia Li has learned from swinging the sword all the time in the Zanpakuto space over the years.

It is an attack of divine consciousness. As long as you don't avoid the first sword shadow, the divine consciousness will enter the world that belongs directly to the sword.

Anyone who enters here will have their mind restrained by a layer called sword dao, and will no longer have the desire to use anything other than sword dao.

When you fail to dodge the initial sword shadow, the method to defeat Xia Li in this space is very simple, that is, your spiritual pressure is one level higher than Xia Li, or you surpass Xia Li in swordsmanship.

Unfortunately, Mingjing Zhishui was unable to do either of these.

In the very beginning of the competition, Xia Li determined Ming Jing Shisui's strength in swordsmanship. The opponent's spiritual pressure was indeed strong enough, but it was still not much stronger than his.

As for kendo, Ming Jing Zhi Shui was not as good as Xia Li in the past, and he is even worse after all these years.

So, from the very beginning, victory was in Xia Li's hands.

Xia Li had been "playing" with Ming Jing Zhi Shui for such a long time, just because he wanted to see Ming Jing Zhi Shui's current strength.

As for why it is the eighth form instead of the seventh form, it is naturally because in this process, Xia Li has also reached the requirements for using a previous ability.

Form Seven - Dimension Slash!

And the Dimension Slash is not something that Ming Jing Shisui can use, as she does not have any spatial abilities.

"Sure enough, the Sword Master is the Sword Master. Even if I have become like this, I am still no match for the Sword Master." At this moment, Ming Jing Zhishui slowly returned to his original state and regained his rationality, and said as a matter of course.

Xia Li was a little speechless when he saw Ming Jing Zhi Shui acting so confidently.

"Then, Master Sword Master, please accept my power." At this time, Ming Jing Zhishui smiled and said.

The next moment, Ming Jing Zhishui's body shattered into pieces.

At the same time, Xia Li also opened his eyes. The Mingjing Zhishui sword that was originally placed on his legs and was about to break suddenly turned into starlight like exploding ice.

Then, the spiritual pressure that had accumulated for several years began to envelope Xia Li in the form of starlight, wrapping up Xia Li's entire body and finally forming a materialized cocoon of light.

After the light cocoon appeared, the spiritual power in the outside world seemed to have completely run wild. The chaotic spiritual power made it impossible for any Void to absorb the spiritual power within.

Several members of the Akatsuki organization retreated again and again in shock. Even though they were far away, they could still feel that their own spiritual power seemed to be sucked out by this runaway spiritual power flow.

"Chief...is he okay?" At this time, Ni Lu couldn't help but ask.

Harribel was also a little worried, but Stark didn't show any worry on his face. He yawned and said, "Don't worry, our leader is very strong."

After hearing what Stark said, Nero and Harribel also felt relieved.

Harribel thought of her meeting with Xia Li at that time. Indeed, she could not see through the other party at all. Even the current Stark could not give her such a feeling.

Therefore, it is obviously impossible for such a person to die casually in such a place.

As for Neelu, she was only called very strong by Stark because she knew how strong Stark was. So the strength of this leader might be far beyond Stark.

With such strength, she really doesn't need to worry about it.

In fact, Stark's current strength has exceeded everyone's expectations. He no longer limits or weakens himself. Stark, who chooses to become stronger, has greatly increased his strength.

At least, the original Ulquiorra could still fight with Stark for a few moves, but now, Ulquiorra is no match for Stark at all.

If this is the case with Ulquiorra who has already become an Arrancar, then Harribel and Nel who have not yet completed their Arrancar are naturally no match for Stark.

After so many years, Harribel still hasn't been able to complete the Arrancar, which also proves the difficulty of the Arrancar.

At that time, Stark's Arrancar was a fluke, and Ulquiorra wasn't much different.

However, Harribel and Nel need to go through the most normal Hollow process, which is extremely difficult. The mask of a Hollow cannot be taken off just because you want to!

"Let your men retreat, they can't hold on any longer." Stark said this when he saw the two Hollows beside Nerlu and the three Hollows beside Harribel.

"Okay." The two naturally did not refuse and let them leave. The three of them were left here to observe the movements here.

Time passed minute by minute, and the spiritual power slowly calmed down, but they still didn't wait for Xia Li to come out.

"Did you make it?"

At this moment, several people looked at each other, and Stark became a little unsure.

Although he believed in Xia Li's strength, it was not easy to break through. Besides, Xia Li was already strong enough before, and every step forward was more difficult...

However, Stark also believed that even if he failed to break through, Xia Li would be fine with his strength.

At this moment, a figure slowly appeared in front of them. The other person was wearing a white divine robe of unknown material swaying in the wind.

At this time, Xia Li's hair had not been specially controlled. After a few years, it had grown from short hair to long hair, and was now simply tied up with a white jade hair rope.

In Xia Li's hand, there once again appeared a weapon with a sword body almost identical to Ming Jing Zhi Shui's, except that the hilt had changed from the original inconspicuous hilt to the current hilt that looked like white jade.

Only Xia Li knew that this white jade was actually made of bone. Because it contained too much spiritual power, it glowed and looked like a piece of beautiful white jade.

In other aspects, Xia Li seemed to have not changed much.

But Stark's eyes narrowed, because at this moment he could not tell what Xia Li was, was he the god of death or... a hollow?

It's impossible to be sure.

Before, no matter how Xia Li changed, he could feel that he was the god of death. However, the current Xia Li...

It has truly broken through the boundary between Death and Hollow, and has even lost the need to be categorized.

It can be said that Xia Li is now neither the God of Death nor a Hollow!

At this moment, Xia Li also saw Stark and Harribel, as well as the newcomer Nilu beside them, walking towards them with smiles on their faces.

"Long time no see, Stark, Harribel."
