First of all, since the effect of Huo Mu's Full Manifestation Technique is judged based on the strength of the person first bound to it; second, it is directly proportional to the strength of the spiritual pressure of the first binder; moreover, Huo Mu himself is a strength enthusiast, he is not fond of 'big' things, but rather is partial to strong things!

Of course, although Huo Mu thought that way in his heart, reality is still cruel and bleak.

In fact, the difficulties lying before him are still quite many……

Hmm, that's right! In the future, relying on a Soul‑Cutting Sword that is both the "oldest" and "strongest," the Flowing Blade of Flame, which dominated Soul Society for a thousand years and is hailed as the strongest Shinigami of the past millennium, Captain‑Commander Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni! He's the one who, at Huo Mu's graduation ceremony, received a slash‑shaped scar on his forehead from Huo Mu~ As for the Yuan Character Academy founded by Yuan Liu Zhai, it is also the predecessor of the later Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Institute……

Thus, Huo Mu decided to first observe for a while before saying more……

Since Huo Mu came to Wandering Soul Street, he has afterwards experienced many many, felt the local customs of each numbered district of Wandering Soul Street, and upon counting, several hundred years have passed!

And Huo Mu, during these hundreds of years, has not been idle, continuously accumulating experience to increase his strength……

This accumulating experience means exactly what it says: constantly completing tasks and watching the numerical value in the experience bar continually rise, leaping.

In fact, during those hundreds of years, Huo Mu had indeed considered adding the experience in his experience bar to his other skills, but after much deliberation he ultimately gave it up……

After all, a certain man who unwilling to reveal his name and likes to smear hair gel on his hands once said: 'The battle of a Shinigami is a battle of spiritual pressure!'

What Huo Mu never expected was that his 'daily good deed' created a certain tsundere girl, who, like a yandere, has incessantly bothered him for decades without change~

Yandere loli, this thing is truly a great attribute for a 2D wife.

But once the dream comes true, it may no longer be a sweet dream, perhaps it is a nightmare.

With Huo Mu's soft shout, a transparent domain burst forth from his body, and without the myriad souls noticing, it enveloped half of the street of Runlin An in the first district of Wandering Soul Street.

Huo Mu gazed at the Soul-Cutting Sword in his hand; on his face, calm as an ancient well, a flicker finally appeared, and the corners of his mouth slightly rose.

And this is only the initial release state of his Liuli Guang~

As for how the Swastika Release's ability is, this makes Araki curious and also full of anticipation.

"Three days is enough for me to learn the Swastika Release~"

Araki, when his Spiritual Pressure reached the senior captain level of the later generation, the average standard of the first-generation Thirteen Court Guard Squads, that is, after reaching Second-Class Spiritual Authority, he decided to first learn the Swastika Release of his own Soul-Cutting Sword, then enter the Tranquil Spirit Court, slay the sharp spirit of the Rabbit-Flower Eight-Thousand Style, and link it to his Full Manifestation Technique's ability~

As for how to defeat the Rabbit-Flower Eight-Thousand Style, Araki has his own plan~

Although Araki's plan is somewhat sinister, it can indeed bring him a glimmer of victory~

After Araki had finalized his plan to counter Unohana Retsu, he swaggered out of his own ramen shop and headed toward the area with a higher number in Wandering Soul Street.

After all, he is training the Swastika Release of his Soul-Cutting Sword; Araki is unsure whether he will cause a huge commotion, and he now greatly needs a place that is spacious enough and undisturbed……

And the place he needs is clearly not satisfied by the Moist Forest Peace District, the first district of Wandering Soul Street.

At the moment Araki left the ramen shop, he happened to meet several old customers of his own ramen shop.

"Araki bro, are you planning to go out to buy ingredients this early?"

"Looks like business is good today, huh?"

"When you come back, I will definitely have you make me a bowl of fresh tonkotsu chashu ramen!"

"Even after surveying the whole Moist Forest Peace District, your noodles are still the best."

The customers looked at Araki, first somewhat surprised, then greeted him with a smile.

"Haha, maybe I'll disappoint you, but this shop of mine is about to close down~"

Araki, upon hearing this, turned sideways to respond.

"Closing? When will you reopen?"

The customer stumbled for a moment, then continued to ask.

"I won't be opening it anymore!"

"There are still ingredients left in the shop; if you have time, make yourself a bowl to eat!"

Araki gave a light smile, casually tossed the shop's key to the customer, and leisurely went away.

From then on, this ramen shop that Araki opened had operated for over a hundred years in Wandering Soul Street, worthy of being called a century-old shop, and finally welcomed his first closure in a hundred years~
