The genius of Naruto is a bit ordinary

After Lilinette appeared, Xia Li also found that Stark's spiritual pressure was indeed much weaker.

But it still exceeded the spiritual pressure of the general captain level, and there were still not many Hollows who could get close to Stark.

So Stark's idea of ​​weakening himself in order to get closer to more companions was doomed to fail.

Xia Li looked at Stark and Lilinette who appeared and didn't know what to say for a while.

Xia Li's pursuit has always been how to become stronger, but Stark in front of him may be thinking about how to weaken himself.

The appearance of Lilinette was almost of no help to Stark, and it also gave Stark a fatal weakness.

Although Lilinette and Stark's souls were split into two individuals, they were actually still one person, so when Lilinette died, Stark could not escape death, and vice versa.

Generally speaking, no one would be willing to do this. Not being able to become stronger and having an extra weakness, only fools would do this.

But thinking of Stark's purpose of wanting companions and that extremely lonely soul, perhaps Stark's approach can be roughly understood.

Perhaps, even among the Ten Espadas, Stark is the kind of existence that only returned to the original level after returning to the blade, and did not become stronger.

But even so, he was still defined as the first blade by Aizen. Perhaps Stark is not as strong as the guy who returned to the second stage of the blade, which is definitely strong enough.

But if Stark had found a companion from the beginning, and then used the most reasonable method to break the face and form a hollow Zanpakutō, then Stark's strength would probably be even better.

And now it is obviously too late.

"What a pity..." Xia Li shook his head, but did not say much about Stark's choice, as long as the other party is willing.

At this time, Lilinette was staring at Xia Li with interest, licking her lips and said, "You smell so good~"

Suddenly, Stark's face stiffened, and he seemed a little helpless.

Xia Li also glanced at Lilinette. If a human or a god of death said this to him, he might have some thoughts about him.

But Lilinette said this literally.

The essence of Arrancar is still Hollow, and Hollow's pursuit of spiritual power is instinctive, so Xia Li, who has such a level of spiritual power, naturally attracts these Hollows.

In fact, Stark also has this feeling, but his desire for companions is far greater than this attraction.

"Sorry, Lilinette is a bit outspoken." Stark apologized on behalf of Lilinette helplessly.

"It's okay, she can't do it anyway." Xia Li said indifferently.

Even the strength of Stark and Lilinette after they merged into one was not taken seriously by Xia Li, let alone Lilinette alone.

Xia Li could see that after the separation, most of the power was actually on Stark, and Lilinette's spiritual pressure was inferior to that of ordinary Hollows.

Lilinette seemed a little annoyed when she heard this, but she didn't say anything in the end. She also noticed Xia Li's strength when she was on Stark.

Lilynette glanced at Stark and asked, "Why did you ask me to come out? There is no need at all. Now we have a companion. It is much better than talking to each other when we are essentially one person."

As she said that, Lilynette once again turned into a pair of guns and returned to Stark's body, seemingly not giving Stark any face at all.

Stark scratched his head a little embarrassedly and looked at Xia Li.

"Nothing, I have seen it, and what she said is right. In essence, you are just one person. You... probably can't really play the role of companions to each other." Xia Li also thought of himself at this time.

Xia Li also has another soul outside, but he is a little different from Stark, that is, Xia Li has only one consciousness, and Stark has obviously evolved a second consciousness to overcome loneliness.

"Actually, I understand, but even so, it is much better than me being alone in this place where I can never reach the end and can't find a companion." Stark said with a wry smile.

Xia Li nodded. Everyone has their own difficulties.

Stark suddenly thought of something and asked, "The souls in my double guns are split by myself, so where does the soul in your Zanpakuto come from?"

Xia Li was stunned and looked at his own Mingjing Shisui.

Stark's words seemed to ring a bell in Xia Li's heart.

Yes, why didn't he find such an obvious thing?

Xia Li looked at Mingjing Shisui, and he seemed to be blind all the time.

Because he was too familiar with Mingjing Shisui, he didn't find this most obvious problem.

The palace-dressed woman in Mingjing Shisui had her own independent consciousness, and naturally an independent soul.

When Xia Li first came into contact with the original form of Zanpakuto, Asada, he actually noticed the soul without self-consciousness from Asada.

It's just that Xia Li had just come to this world not long ago, and he didn't know the rules of this world very well.

In addition, his vague memory of Zanpakuto was that it had its own soul, so he didn't care.

Now if we look deeper, the origin of this soul is very strange.

Souls do not come out of thin air, so who does this unconscious soul belong to? Human? Death? Or Hollow?

At this moment, Xia Li also understood what he meant by using his own spiritual power to cultivate his Zanpakutō before Qian Da had even begun to understand.

In fact, you use your own soul to cultivate the soul in the Zanpakutō. After all, spiritual power itself is a substance that constitutes the soul.

In this process of continuous cultivation, the soul inside the Zanpakutō absorbs enough of the sword master's soul to form a consciousness similar to that of the master.

This is why Xia Li is obsessed with becoming stronger, and why Ming Jing Shisui, as the soul of the Zanpakutō, will be so persistent.

Of course, they are two different souls after all, so the soul of the Zanpakutō is only similar to its owner, but not exactly the same.

Then the process of the Zanpakuto's continuous tempering and becoming stronger is no different from that of Hollow.

Hollows improve their own strength by devouring other Hollows or souls.

The Zanpakutō relies on its owner's continuous input of spiritual power to enhance the power of Hakkake and even Swastikaki.

Its essence is to become stronger by absorbing spiritual power...

Therefore, Xia Li once again confirmed that since Ming Jing Zhishui is a separate soul, she must be able to achieve virtualization.

Moreover, Ming Jing Zhishui still contains his own spiritual power in his body. When Ming Jing Zhishui successfully becomes insubstantial, it will inevitably lead to the incorporation of this part of Xia Li's spiritual power.

Then Xia Li only needs to find a way to return this part of his spiritual power to himself, so that he can become one with Ming Jing Zhishui...

And this also means the swastika of the Arrancar, or it can be called the return blade.

At this moment, after Stark's reminder and combined with Stark's example, Xia Li basically figured out all the joint points and figured out the next path to take.

Then the next question is how to make Shisui Mingjing complete the blur. Of course, there is already a plan for this, which is to stay at the Urahara store.

Use the broken jade sealed by Urahara Kisuke to transform bit by bit, or let Ming Jing Shisui fall into despair, and complete the transformation of the soul into the void in the most normal way.

When Xia Li was thinking like this, he clearly felt Ming Jing Zhishui's blade trembling, as if he was worried about something.

Xia Li couldn't help but chuckle, then stroked the blade and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you go this way."

Immediately, Ming Jing Zhishui felt at ease. What it knew about Xia Li, since Xia Li said so, it was definitely true.

Xia Li actually knew that it was not difficult to make Ming Jing Zhishui despair, as long as he abandoned the other party. Maybe Ming Jing Zhishui didn't believe it at first, but as time went by, it was enough.

But there is no point in doing so. The time will definitely be faster than relying on Urahara Kisuke's Bengyu transformation.

The problem is that Ming Jing Shisui, who was transformed by despair, will still have to merge into Gui Ren and Xia Li.

Xia Li didn't think it was a good choice to use a virtual person who hated him to return to the sword.

In addition to this, he couldn't imagine what kind of despair Ming Jing Zhishui would feel. After all, he himself was a person who was fearless, and Ming Jing Zhishui, who inherited part of his character, obviously did the same.

So since Ming Jing Zhishui has been willing to transform towards Xu, then he just needs to wait.

In fact, he also wanted to see what the Hollow without resentment looked like after being actively transformed by the Zanpakutō, and maybe he would give Xia Li a surprise.

Another question is how to return the blade.

Xia Li actually had a clue about this, but he could only wait until Ming Jing Zhishui completed the virtualization before conducting experiments.

Stark looked at Xia Li, who was lost in thought after he finished speaking, and did not disturb him, silently guarding him.

After a long time, Xia Li looked at Stark, smiled and said, "Thank you, it was a big help."

"Well, it'll be nice if I can help." Stark also smiled and said a little lazily.

At this time, Stark was a little hesitant and didn't know how to speak.

"What's wrong?" Xia Li asked a little strangely.

"Have you found a way to go further?"

Xia Li thought for a while and nodded, then shook her head and said, "I just thought of a way. Whether it will work or not can only be verified when it is completed."

"Oh." Stark nodded, but he actually didn't care about this. What he cared about was another question, "Then are you leaving now?"

After Xia Li heard this question, she actually showed a hint of panic when she saw the handsome uncle in front of him.

After all, he finally found a companion who could get close to him. If he left, Stark really didn't know where to go next to find the next companion.

Xia Li found it a bit funny. It looked like a wolf, but turned out to be a wolfdog who was afraid of being alone?

It doesn’t seem right. I remember that wolves are also social animals...

"Well, it really doesn't make sense for me to stay here." Xia Li said, he had to rush back to the present world to go to Urahara Store.

"Really?" Stark was a little disappointed, but didn't say much.

"However, I will stay here for a while."

"well?"

Stark was confused.

Xia Li looked into the distance and said, "After all, you have helped me, so I plan to accompany you for a while and teach you how to control your power. When you have mastered your power to a certain extent, you will probably be able to get close to some ordinary Hollows, and then you will be able to find more companions."

"Control your own power?" Stark was a little confused. His power was innate and indeed uncontrolled.

"Let's go. I will teach you as we go, and in the process, maybe I can find your next companion."

Xia Li thought of the other blades among the Arrancars. They were basically Achucas. If it was them, they should have the ability to get close to Stark and become his companions.

Since Aizen could find them, Xia Li didn't think he couldn't find them. It just took some time.

"Oh, okay." Stark nodded, then put his hands in his pockets and followed.

Stark didn't think he could meet other companions. After all, he had been looking for so long and only found Xia Li, a companion who could get close to him. How could he find the next one easily?

Along the way, Xia Li also fought with Stark a few times. Basically, Stark fell down before Xia Li had used much strength.

This also made Xia Li understand Stark's problem. Not only did he not know how to control his own strength, but his combat experience was also ridiculously poor.

And this is not difficult to understand. In the past, the hollows that approached Stark were directly shattered to death by spiritual pressure, so Stark had no experience in serious combat at all, and relied entirely on the strength of spiritual pressure.

In this regard, Stark is completely inferior to Kenpachi Saraki. At least Kenpachi Saraki has a strong spiritual pressure and a monster-like instinct.

Even if Kenpachi Saraki had no combat experience at the beginning, he was able to exert enough power to defeat Unohana just by relying on his instinct.

Stark does not have this instinct, and his potential is actually not as good as Kenpachi Saraki. Now he has taken the initiative to split his soul... It is even more incomparable.

Stark finally realized how powerful Xia Li was. If the other party was really hostile, then no matter if he returned to the blade or not, the result would be the same, and he couldn't even escape.

Xia Li's strength had already exceeded Stark's imagination, and Stark couldn't imagine what Xia Li would look like after going one step further, which was obviously beyond Stark's understanding.

However, Stark still decided to quickly control his own power. The other party was obviously wasting his time to help him, and Stark actually felt that he didn't help Xia Li too much.

So he couldn't cause trouble to his companions. This was Stark's silly and cute idea. (End of this chapter)
