Bai Ye decisively put away the Zanpakuto.
"Thanks for your patronage, boss." Bai Ye grinned at Seth. "Let's rest. Tonight, I guarantee I'll get you out of here and complete the mission."
To fight his way out of Seireitei, Bai Ye felt that at the moment, no one could achieve it.
Bai Ye's current strength was barely enough to contend with some Vice-Captains. If he encountered a Captain...
The fight on the long street earlier was the best answer.
He was completely outmatched!
In just one exchange, Bai Ye was beaten, and what's more, the opponent didn't even use their Bankai.
While Bai Ye wasn't arrogant enough to believe he was invincible, and that no Chosen among the current world battlefield was stronger than him, such a huge gap made Bai Ye feel that no one else would fare any better.
Therefore, Bai Ye believed this hidden mission had to be achieved through wit, not brute force. Otherwise, in the current situation, Seth's hidden mission would absolutely not be completed.
However, a strategic approach was clearly too troublesome, requiring thought about the current situation and devising countermeasures. So, Bai Ye chose to cheat.
That Zanpakuto called Zabimaru was worth wasting a God Stone fragment on.
The next step was to wait.
Fighting his way out during the day was definitely not a good option. The Shinigami were like office workers, with nine-to-five schedules, working hard for 996, living the good life every day.
So, of course, he had to wait until night to make his move.
Thinking this, Bai Ye lay down on the bed and started to sleep.
The twelve great battles had been going on for so long, and Bai Ye felt quite tired. He quickly fell into a deep sleep.
Bai Ye slept soundly and comfortably until he felt a slight tremor. Groggily opening his eyes, he saw Seth shaking him.
Bai Ye mumbled, "What time is it?"
Seth replied, "It's already night."
Bai Ye yawned and stretched his back. His physical condition was robust, and his recovery was fast. Combined with the water curse, his injuries, though not fully healed, were no longer a significant problem.
"Then let's get ready to go!"
As Bai Ye spoke, he threw out the Gacha machine, which clanged onto the floor, startling Seth.
With the sound of the Gacha machine spinning, soon, the first capsule rolled out, and then...
The moment the capsule rolled out, Bai Ye kicked it away.
Damn it, a white capsule!
Bai Ye didn't even bother to look and immediately went for a second pull.
"Heavenly Gate, Hell Gate..." Bai Ye prayed, "One shot, one kill."
The second capsule...
It was blue!
Tian Gang Yi Qi Jue (Daoist Technique) (Blue): Harmonize with heaven and earth, merge internal essence and qi, a Daoist technique to strengthen the physical body. Effects: Tian Gang Body (for one hour, strength and speed increased by 30 points), Yi Qi Sword Finger (condense internal true qi, attack with sword finger).
A Daoist technique from the Xianxia world...
This thing actually looked decent. For regular use, it would certainly be sufficient, especially since Daoist techniques were considered rather powerful means.
Regardless of the power of Yi Qi Sword Finger, the 30-point increase in strength and speed alone was almost equivalent to half a bottle of T-virus.
However, in the current situation...
Tian Gang Yi Qi Jue was clearly not enough to turn the tide.
"It seems I still have to use the God Stone fragment!"
Bai Ye had been hoping the first two pulls would yield a golden capsule, or even a red capsule would offer hope of turning the tide. But the two black capsules from the twelve great battles seemed to have used up all his luck. The two pulls on this new day were clearly unremarkable.
Then he had no choice but to cheat. After all, he had already received Seth's benefits, and Bai Ye didn't want to be imprisoned in this damned place forever. He definitely had to fight his way out.
"Give me a golden capsule!"
Bai Ye twisted the Gacha machine, which made "clack, clack" sounds as it rotated.
Soon, a golden radiance appeared within the Gacha machine.
A golden capsule fell out and immediately cracked in half upon hitting the ground.
The next moment, a vast golden light erupted.
...
A man lay by the roadside, near death. The smell of blood attracted buzzing flies.
Filthy and fragile little insects, waiting for the moment to devour a large prey. But they never got their wish.
A wandering caravan stopped, and gentle hands offered water.
"Live."
A little girl's voice, as beautiful as heavenly music.
"Is it a dream?"
The man slowly opened his eyes and then stood up from the ground.
"Unwilling? Then surpass reincarnation."
A voice sounded in his ear.
Unknowingly, his body could move again.
A familiar touch, it was the Fangtian Hua Ji.
Strength, strength poured in.
Consciousness, like a candle flame in the wind, flickered.
But that obsession grew clearer.
If I cannot become a human, then I shall become a demon.
Live, and then...
"I will become the nightmare of this world!"
...
Within that golden radiance, a tall man clad in black armor, wielding a Fangtian Hua Ji, stood up. He was mighty and imposing, emanating an intense killing intent, possessing an aura of disdain for all under heaven.
Tian Mo Liao Luan (Possession) (War God Lü Bu) (Gold): Abyss ahead, hell behind, even gods and demons, I will annihilate them for you.
Effects: Unrivaled Demon (After War God Lü Bu possesses you, all attributes except intelligence are tripled).
Taotie's Blood (Under the enchanted state, ignores all enemy defenses).
Fangtian Hua Zhan (Swing the Fangtian Hua Ji in a designated direction. Upon hitting an enemy, they enter an enchanted state).
Greedy Wolf's Grasp (Steal the souls of enemies within a designated range, reducing their movement speed and increasing your own defense).
Demon God's Descent (Leap forward, swing the Fangtian Hua Ji upon landing. All targets within range upon landing will have their movement speed reduced. If the attack hits an enemy, you will heal your injuries to a certain extent and enter an enchanted state).
Possession ability!
Bai Ye looked at the screen, his first reaction was – "It's settled!"
The items from golden capsules were all powerful, but he still had to consider their applicability.
For example, if it were a weapon or a beast, Bai Ye would have to consider his own safety. After all, a weapon wouldn't enhance his own abilities, and a beast would face the awkward situation of "capture the leader first."
Also, if he got defensive equipment...
Then they would just stand there and trade blows, with neither able to kill the other, which would be a huge joke.
Therefore, the most suitable thing for the current situation would be something that directly enhances his own abilities. Because it was sufficiently comprehensive, its individual strength might not be terrifying, but its applicability would certainly be very high.
Thus, a possession ability was perfectly suited for the current situation.
At the same time...
The figure within the golden radiance slowly emerged from the light and merged with Bai Ye.
