Chapter 566: The City Above Seireitei

The cracks on the wooden frame became more and more dense, and several pieces of wood were torn away in the rotating black hole. It seemed that the instrument that Hongjiang had high hopes for was about to collapse.

The instrument that communicated with Kurotsuchi Mayuri still could not be activated. Hongjiang's hands, which were covered by his wide sleeves, had unconsciously clenched.

He thought that he had been accustomed to waiting since he first stepped out of the Soul Society when he was young, and he was also good at waiting. But now, on the eve of the fall of the huge stone that had been weighing on his heart for more than two hundred years, he tasted the torment for the first time.

"Lord Chouzuka!"

"What... is that?"

The voices of Inex and Yoruichi came one after another. Hongjiang seemed to be dazed just now. When he came back to his senses, a white dot seemed to appear in the center of the black hole not far away?

Facts also proved that Hongjiang was not dazzled. The white spot in the center of the black hole seemed to be the light at the end of the tunnel. It gradually became angular from the initial blur, like a turbulent torrent or an unfolding picture scroll, allowing Hongjiang and others who had boarded an unknown train at some point to finally pass through the darkness and see the new world on the other side!

What is that?

Matsumoto Rangiku stared at the strange scenery in the sky in amazement. The night sky was an unknown land that was darker than the night, and therefore, the white under the darkness was more dazzling.

At first it was just blurry, but in just a blink of an eye, the blurry white became as clear as a photo, and high-rise buildings covered with frost appeared in the air. The cold streets and decorations that were completely different from the Seireitei had never left a memory in Matsumoto's mind.

This was a city she had never seen before!

Was it an illusion?

Or was it really an image of a city?

Matsumoto's mind was blank. The city gave her such a real feeling, as if it would fall down at any time and make her feel a little breathless. At the same time, a bad idea suddenly appeared in her mind. Could it be that the city in the sky will really appear in the Soul Society in the end?

If so, what will happen to the 10th Division? What will happen to the Soul Society? !

This idea scared Matsumoto. Almost instinctively, she immediately turned her eyes to the initiator of all this, Kurotsuchi Mayuri, but the latter also had a serious expression, as if the situation was very bad.

Of course, the situation was not good. Although the Invisible Empire really appeared as planned, the location where it appeared was completely wrong.

According to Kurotsuchi Mayuri's idea, he could use the double space tunnel to force out the Invisible Empire, but the location where it appeared must be the space gate.

He would not let the Invisible Empire really cover the Soul Society. As long as he could force it out a little, he could use the space fixing technology to build a door from the 10th Division to the Invisible Empire, and the cost of this at most might only affect the 10th Division. This cost was almost no cost in his mind.

Of course, the fixed door may fail, but if things can really go to that step, the existence of the Invisible Empire can no longer be hidden. In order to get the support of the old man, Kurotsuchi Mayuri thought that he would have more opportunities to create a door connecting to the Invisible Empire, and the most important thing is that he will no longer be bound by his hands.

But now the Invisible Empire has been forced out, but the location where it appeared is the sky, and even though he has not verified it, he still found that what was forced out was only the image of the Invisible Empire, not the entity as planned.

The reason for all this may be that the space flow is not strong enough, or it may be that the other party has extraordinary control over the space he lives in.

Kurotsuchi Mayuri no longer wants to delve into what exactly caused his plan to go wrong. What he knows now is that the image of the Invisible Empire emerged only when the space overlap between the Invisible Empire and the Soul Society became higher. If he wants to get the plan back on track, he must make the space flow stronger!

"Increase the power, Akin!"

"No, Captain." Akin hurriedly replied: "Both sides must be increased to the same power at the same time, otherwise the instrument will collapse instantly. We can't cooperate with Captain Chouzuka at all now!"

"Double the power! After increasing the power, the instrument can only last for five seconds at most. You must seize the opportunity to fix the space, otherwise I will send you to my dissection table!"

Kuroshita Mayuri didn't listen to Akin's words at all. Although the other party was right, he still subconsciously believed in Urahara Kisuke on the other side, believing that the guy he regarded as a transcendent object could detect abnormalities and respond.

Akin had never seen his captain so excited and irrational, but since the captain gave the order, he could only follow his orders.

While adjusting the power of the space door, he loudly warned others: "There are three seconds left for the power to increase, three, two, one!"

Almost at the moment when the word "one" came out, there was a loud bang, accompanied by a violent storm, and the wooden frame in the field suddenly burst open, and the scattered wood fragments even shot through the body of a researcher, which shows the huge power of this explosion.

Mayuri Kurotsuchi waved his sleeves to block a few flying wood chips, then suddenly looked up. The white city in the sky became fainter and fainter, and then it disappeared completely with the cool night breeze.

The plan failed, damn it! Mayuri Kurotsuchi gritted his teeth, and the muscles on his cheeks twitched slightly as he tried his best to suppress his anger.

Did Urahara increase the power first, or did they not find any abnormality at all?

No, we haven't increased the power yet, so maybe the Quincy has really completed the countermeasure at the spatial level?

A thousand thoughts rushed into Mayuri Kurotsuchi's brain in an instant, and Matsumoto Rangiku was still obsessed with the cold city he had just seen after the wooden frame exploded.

"What was that just now, Captain Kurotsuchi?"

"Shut up, don't bother me!"

Mayuri Kurotsuchi scolded coldly, and his fingers kept moving on the machine that looked like a mobile phone he had just taken out. This was the instrument he used to communicate with Hongjiang. If the wooden frame collapsed on this side, the space door on the other side would also stop accordingly, and the space wave that previously prevented the two sides from communicating would no longer exist. He must know what happened immediately.

Once, twice, three times, he tried again and still couldn't contact Hongjiang after the fifth time. Finally, he couldn't suppress his anger in his heart, and with a force on his hand, he squeezed the phone into a ball of scrap metal.

If that guy Diezuka was not stupid enough to deliberately play tricks on him, it meant that he and the other party had completely lost contact.

This either meant that Hongjiang and his group had all died for some unknown reason, or that the other party had fallen into a space that was extremely difficult to break through, such as the Invisible Empire!

"It's really bad. I'm going to be looked down upon by that idiot." Kurotsuchi Mayuri muttered to himself viciously, then suddenly laughed and said grimly: "But it's also interesting now. I was actually able to suffer a loss. I'm interested in you again, Quincy."
