"Do you want to try Arrancar now?"
Xia Li looked at Ulquiorra expectantly.
"Okay." Ulquiorra replied seriously.
Then, under the gazes of Xia Li and Stark, Ulquiorra reached out to his mask and tore it off forcefully.
After the mask fell off, Ulquiorra also revealed his black broken hair, pale skin, and dark green tear stains on his face.
"Is it that simple?" Stark couldn't help but be a little surprised and a little stunned when he saw this scene. If it were that simple, then splitting his soul would look so clown...
"No, it's not that simple. This can't be called an Arrancar, because this mask will regenerate in the future. Am I right?" Xia Li felt Ulquiorra's power, but it didn't actually happen. What a change, he said.
"Yes, I don't know how to prevent it from regenerating." Ulquiorra replied.
Xia Li set her sights on Stark, the only one here who had completed the Arrancar before.
Stark also said a little helplessly, "I don't know, my Arrancar just wanted another companion, and then he split his soul into two halves, injected it into that gun, and then seemed to complete it on his own. ”
"Yeah." Xia Li also nodded, thinking of Arrancar's 'Swastika', which is the return blade.
Returning to the blade, what kind of blade is returning? The blade represents a weapon, so Ulquiorra should use his body to condense a Zanpakutō that belongs to him when he breaks through.
Xia Li also told Stark and Ulquiorra this guess.
After thinking about it, Ulquiorra nodded, thinking that this should be the case.
"Then I'll try again." Ulquiorra said, and then the mask that had been torn off on his face regenerated at an extremely fast speed under his active control.
Then, Ulquiorra started to act again, but this time he was a little confused.
That is, he didn't know what kind of weapon he wanted to condense. After thinking for a long time, Ulquiorra's eyes fell on Stark's double spears and Xia Li's Mirror Shisui.
In the end, Ulquiorra decided to gather the same weapon as Xia Li, but his fighting style was not suitable for those two guns.
Soon, in the eyes of Stark and Xia Li, the mask on Ulquiorra's face seemed to disappear. At the same time, there seemed to be a katana in Ulquiorra's hand.
Xia Li had already maximized his perception at this time. In his perception, the spiritual power on Ulquiorra was constantly fluctuating, which contained huge imaginary power.
At the same time, this virtual power seemed to contain the power of death that Xia Li was familiar with.
Xia Li's eyes were also a little excited. Sure enough, the power of Death and Xu can be fused together.
Moreover, they don’t all need to be like Kurosaki Ichigo.
After all, Kurosaki Ichigo's power is a combination of several major forces formed by so many 'coincidences', and it is basically impossible to reproduce it.
But since Ulquiorra and Stark can break the surface on their own and break the boundary between Hollow and Death, then Death should also have this ability.
At this time, Xia Li suddenly realized something...
The path he takes may be very similar to that of the protagonist Kurosaki Ichigo, because when Ming Jing Shisui really completes the virtual transformation, Ming Jing Shisui will have the same power as the bull head in Kurosaki Ichigo's body. .
However, Xia Li remembered that Kurosaki Ichigo only went berserk once and used the full power of the bull head, and basically never used the full power of the bull head in the future.
And Xia Li obviously wanted to go one step further and completely attribute Ming Jing Zhishui's power to himself.
"I'm really looking forward to it." Xia Li's eyes flashed, maybe he could really break his upper limit.
However, at this time, something happened again on Ulquiorra's side.
The 'Zanpakutō' in his hand was very unstable, and eventually broke into pieces, and his mask that was about to disappear appeared on his face again.
"Failed?" Stark frowned.
"It's not a failure, it's just that Ulquiorra hasn't fully mastered this kind of power yet. As long as he becomes more proficient, he should be able to complete it." Xia Li also saw it and said directly.
"Yes, I can't control the new power." Ulquiorra also responded at this time.
At this moment, the spiritual pressure on Ulquiorra's body had dropped a lot, and it seemed that this attempt to break through was also very draining on him.
However, Ulquiorra seemed to want to try again, but was stopped by Xia Li.
"Let's try again after we've fully recovered. Don't be in a hurry." Xia Li said.
"Okay." Ulquiorra nodded.
Xia Li looked at Ulquiorra and felt that the other person... seemed a bit obedient?
Is it his imagination?
"So Xia Li, where are we going next?" Stark asked at this time. He had already found Xia Li and Ulquiorra. It could be said that he was satisfied.
It doesn't matter if I can't find a new companion Stark later.
"Next, let's take a walk." Xia Li was not sure. His goal in Hueco Mundo had actually been accomplished, and it would be okay to leave now.
"Are you looking for a strong companion?" Ulquiorra asked at this time.
"This was the previous goal, but after finding you, this goal has basically been completed." Stark yawned and said lazily, and the previous motivation seemed to have disappeared at this moment.
"So there is no need to find new companions?" Ulquiorra was a little confused.
"Do you know there is a powerful Hollow nearby?" Xia Li was startled at this moment. He heard the meaning of Ulquiorra's words.
"Well, I heard those guys who excluded me before said it." This time, Ulquiorra did not call those virtual companions.
"Really? Where?" Stark was also a little surprised.
"In the center of the sand sea over there, there is a Xuye Palace. There seems to be the King of Hueco Mundo, ruling Hueco Mundo." Ulquiorra replied.
"The King of Hueco Mundo?"
Stark and Xia Li were both a little surprised, really or not, and Sha Hai?
Stark and Xia Li looked at each other. They had been wandering around the sand sea for so long but they hadn't seen any forces?
However, they did not suspect that Ulquiorra would lie. Although they did not have much contact with him, they all felt that Ulquiorra was... quite honest.
"Xia Li, shall we go over and take a look?" Stark asked. "It's okay anyway, let's go over and take a look at this so-called 'King' of Hueco Mundo." Xia Li also became interested at this time and said.
"Okay." Stark also nodded. He was also a little interested in the 'King' of Hueco Mundo,
The opponent is the king of Hueco Mundo, which means he is the king of all virtual worlds. Stark himself doesn't know when there is an extra king on his head.
"Also, how has your power control been since I left?" Xia Li suddenly asked.
"Um..."
Suddenly, Stark felt something was wrong. He scratched his head and wanted to change the topic. However, Xia Li did not give Stark a chance and directly pulled out Mingjing Zhishui.
Soon, under the pressure of countless pure white swords, Stark was easily defeated again.
"It seems that there is really no progress." Xia Li took back Ming Jing Zhishui and said.
"No, you've obviously become stronger again..." Stark wanted to complain.
Xia Li's method of using sword pressure was actually learned from Zaraki Kenpachi. Although it was not subtle, it was more simple and direct, relying on the powerful spiritual pressure of Zaraki Kenpachi and Xia Li.
They were just swinging their swords, and the swords they carried were incredibly powerful.
Xia Li didn't need a sword to fight Stark, so he just tested it in the simplest way. The result...
Stark probably spent more than a month looking for Ulquiorra.
Ulquiorra was also watching the battle between Xia Li and Stark. His eyes were fixed on the sword pressure generated by Xia Li's swing of the sword, and the spiritual pressure coming from Xia Li's body every time he swung the sword. Absolutely oppressive.
From the beginning, Ulquiorra felt that Xia Li should be very strong, and now that he saw it, it was indeed the case.
"Ulquiorra, I'll leave it to you to test against Stark in the future. Your strengths should be relatively similar and you can promote each other." Xia Li said at this time.
"Okay." Ulquiorra nodded directly without refusing.
At this time, Stark also saw that something was wrong, and couldn't help but ask, "Ulquiorra, why do you listen to Xia Li so much?"
"Because he is much stronger than me, right? Listen to the strong, right?" Ulquiorra asked.
At this time, Stark was a little speechless. How should I put this? Here in Hueco Mundo, the law of the jungle is still a normal survival rule.
However, it seems that this law doesn't apply to them very much now, right?
Xia Li also looked at Ulquiorra at this time and said, "Generally speaking, it is best for you to have your own opinions and ideas. Your companions cannot completely dominate everything you do..."
Ulquiorra nodded, indicating that he understood.
"Then can I ask why the aura on your body is different from ours?" Ulquiorra finally asked.
He had been curious before that Xia Li's aura was different from that of him and Stark, but since Xia Li was much stronger than him before, he would not ask this question.
But now, according to what Stark and Xia Li said, there should be no problem for him to ask this question.
"Because I am the God of Death." Xia Li also replied.
"Death? What is it again?" Ulquiorra was a little confused. It was also the first time for him to hear so many novel things.
At this moment, he was very interested in these things he didn't understand.
Xia Li had explained this issue to Stark before, so Stark took over and explained to Ulquiorra the relationship between the God of Death, humans and the Hollow.
"So, Xia Li should be our enemy?" Ulquiorra asked after listening to Stark's words.
"Of course not. There is no essential hostile relationship between Xu and the God of Death." Stark replied, "After all, according to Xia Li, if the balance of the three realms is imbalanced, Hueco Mundo will also be destroyed."
"So, is the God of Death the defender of this balance?" Ulquiorra frowned.
"That's right." Xia Li nodded at this time, "Because the Death God's side is more powerful."
"So that's how it is." Ulquiorra nodded, and sure enough, he had to return to strength in the end.
Then, the three of them walked towards the center of the sand sea. With Ulquiorra's guidance, it shouldn't take long this time.
Along the way, Stark and Ulquiorra also fought several times, and Stark basically won the final victory.
Xia Li looked on and nodded. Sure enough, it was basically impossible for Ulquiorra to be Stark's opponent before he completed the second stage of return.
As for Ulquiorra's Arrancar progress, he has been able to persist for a long time, but he still cannot complete the final step.
In this way, the three people found a palace.
"Is this the Xuye Palace?" Xia Li sighed as she looked at the Xuye Palace in front of her. It would be really hard to find it without guidance.
"It should be, but there seem to be a little few Hollows here. Is it really the palace of the King of Hueco Mundo?" Stark also looked at everything around him curiously. At this moment, his spiritual pressure was finally able to suppress it. It won't cause ordinary virtual pressure to collapse as soon as it gets close.
"I have only heard of it, and have never seen what the real Xuye Palace looks like." Ulquiorra said from the side.
"It should be here. There is a great void inside that is at least the level of Vastod." Xia Li said, having already sensed the figure with huge spiritual pressure in the Xuye Palace.
"Then let's go in and take a look first." Stark said, feeling a little dreamy at this time.
He had been searching for so long before but could not find anyone who could be his companion, but during this period of time, he found Xia Li, Ulquiorra, and this guy in Xuye Palace one after another.
Of course, there is no certainty that the other party will definitely become their companion.
The three of them walked into Xuye Palace. As for the surrounding obstructions, after Stark released his spiritual pressure a little, those Xuye no longer dared to approach, let alone block them.
Inside Xuye Palace.
Xia Li looked at the surrounding scenery. How should I put it, it was better than the sand sea, but it was still very desolate.
Calling this place a palace is really too flattering. In Xia Li's opinion, this can only be regarded as the most primitive stone house, just a little bigger and with a few simple pillars next to it.
Most of the place is made of unpolished stone, and there are those stone walls...
Not to mention compared with modern buildings, even the buildings of primitive society are estimated to be inferior.
However, they did not come here for these buildings. Soon, the three of them saw the 'King' of Hueco Mundo sitting on the throne, staring at them angrily.
