Chapter 1502

After studying for a long time, Su Xiao still hadn't figured out what the situation with "Blade Awakening in progress" was.

Su Xiao had frequently used the Devouring Core recently, sometimes even keeping it open all day, but after the Blade Demon phantom awakened, he could not use the Devouring Core at will, otherwise there was a risk of Blade Demonization.

Although Su Xiao didn't figure out what "Blade Awakening in progress" meant, he felt someone calling him, but separated by too many dimensions, he couldn't respond to the other party's call. This feeling was very familiar—it was his unreliable mentor, Marv Waltz.

Just as Checking Zhan Long Shan reached the Blade Awakening stage, Marv Waltz tried to call Su Xiao; there must be a connection between the two.

This made Su Xiao feel much more relieved. If the quality of Checking Zhan Long Shan was stuck at this stage, it would definitely be a painful situation. Su Xiao invested so many resources in Checking Zhan Long Shan because he was optimistic about its growth potential. Once it lost its growth potential, the value of Checking Zhan Long Shan would decrease by at least 70%.

The current situation was very clear: Marv Waltz knew how to deal with "Blade Awakening." This was the benefit of having the help of a previous generation Shadow of the Law-Breaker. Su Xiao needed to return to Reincarnation Paradise and use Reincarnation Paradise as a medium to contact Marv Waltz.

Thinking of this, Su Xiao temporarily stopped paying attention to the situation of Checking Zhan Long Shan. He had devoured enough Zanpakuto; any more would just be icing on the cake, which was not worth the risk.

As for whether continuing to devour could pass the "Blade Awakening" stage, this was basically impossible. Su Xiao could sense the feeling when Checking Zhan Long Shan devoured Zanpakuto; Checking Zhan Long Shan was not lacking in sharpness value, but was lacking something more important.

Su Xiao sheathed Checking Zhan Long Shan and began to prepare for the subsequent plan. With the hostile relationship between him and the Seireitei, it was obviously impossible to enter the Seireitei area again. There were several Shinigami captains who could put Su Xiao to death. As for continuing to steal Zanpakuto, this was also impossible; those captains and lieutenants would definitely carry their Zanpakuto 24 hours a day, perhaps even holding their Zanpakuto in their hands when going to the toilet.

The Seireitei was like a hornet's nest that had been poked through. As for Su Xiao, the person who poked the hornet's nest, as long as he dared to approach, those hornets would swarm up.

Xiang Bubu Wang lay on the ground panting heavily, and Benny, who was in the Seireitei, no longer searched for treasure chests everywhere because it was too dangerous. Since a researcher like Su Xiao appeared, the Gotei 13 realized that any suspicious person would be caught and interrogated first, and killed if there was anything wrong. For this reason, 9 Tier 4 contractors were caught in the crossfire and died at the hands of the Gotei 13.

This really lived up to the words Su Xiao said to Unohana: "Remember, next time you encounter a suspicious target, kill them directly."

The looting ended here. Su Xiao checked the adventure group's storage space, which was filled with a large number of treasure chests of various qualities.

【Blue Treasure Chest x42.】

【Purple Treasure Chest x26.】

【Dark Purple Treasure Chest x11.】

【Light Gold Treasure Chest x6.】

【Gold Treasure Chest x4.】

This was the treasure chest harvest from flattening the First Division barracks. Of course, there were also 86.5% World Source and hundreds of Zanpakuto.

The current Checking Zhan Long Shan could be said to be getting smoother and smoother at devouring. It used to take 5-10 minutes to devour weapons of the same level, but now it could be devoured in less than 30 seconds.

"Xiang Bubu, Amu, let's go, come with me to see someone."

The team of one person, one dog, and one cow finally gathered, while Benny continued to look for treasure. As for Shadow, he was responsible for patrolling nearby; after all, this was Su Xiao's second stronghold and could not be easily exposed.

Taking Xiang Bubu and Amu, Su Xiao walked toward the outside of the forest, heading straight for the east side of the Rukongai.

The so-called Rukongai was not a street district. In the entire Soul Society, except for the Seireitei in the central area, other places were Rukongai areas.

The Rukongai wrapped the Seireitei in a circular shape. Compared to the Seireitei, the area of the Rukongai was countless times larger.

The east, south, west, and north districts of the Rukongai could be subdivided into 320 areas, and each large area had 80 sub-areas. Now Su Xiao was in the eastern large area, which was also areas 1-80. The security of the first area was the most stable, located at the edge of the Seireitei, where the relatives of some low-level Shinigami lived.

The further back the Rukongai area was, the more chaotic it was. By the 80th district, it could not be described by chaos. The souls there determined the basic right to survive by killing each other. There was no power, no rules, and the law of the jungle ran rampant. As long as one was strong enough, one could do whatever one wanted in the 80th district.

Zaraki Kenpachi came from the 79th district, Kusajishi district. After that guy killed a large number of souls in the Kusajishi district, he was noticed by the Seireitei. Compared to the chaotic eastern large area, the other three large areas were much better.

The purpose of Su Xiao's trip was not the 80th district; he was not interested in those souls killing each other.

Two hours later, the 36th district of the Rukongai, the Kongju district.

The Kongju district belonged to a relatively stable area. This was the main production area for metal. Precisely because of this, the Kongju district was the area where the most souls lived.

Rather than calling the residents here souls, it was actually more appropriate to call them civilians of the Soul Society. They would also be born, grow old, get sick, and die. In principle, they didn't need to eat, but they also needed to replenish Reishi after labor. There was no such thing as a perpetual motion machine in this world, including souls.

40% of the civilians here were miners, and the rest were their families and industries surrounding mineral production. The clothing of pedestrians on the street looked shabby, but in fact, they were not poor; on the contrary, this was one of the most affluent areas in the Rukongai.

For some reason, after Su Xiao saw the miners in groups of three or five on the street, he immediately thought of the contractors of Apocalypse Paradise. If those Buddhist-style contractors entered the Bleach World, they would not sneak into the Seireitei at all, but head straight for the 36th district and sweat here to their heart's content.

Su Xiao walked on the muddy street. It was evening, and there were many pedestrians on the street. A drunken middle-aged man walked from opposite Su Xiao. The middle-aged man's face was red, and it was clear he was deeply drunk. He almost bumped into Su Xiao.

"Watch where you're going."

Su Xiao pulled the middle-aged man's collar, and the drunkard, who almost fell when dodging Su Xiao, stood firm.

"Thank you, little brother, *hiccup*~"

The drunkard smiled and hiccuped. Because of the drunkenness, his eyes were a bit blurry, but after seeing Su Xiao's face, the drunkard's expression gradually became dull, eventually turning into horror.

"You, you, you, you..."

The drunkard was like a repeater, staggering back a few steps.

"Help!"

The drunkard shouted exaggeratedly, turned around, and fled. He didn't run two steps before falling to the ground, struggling for a long time before getting up and continuing to flee.

The abnormality of the drunkard attracted the attention of a youth not far away. He was a student of the Shin'o Academy and belonged to a reserve Shinigami.

"The guy over there, stand still, no, lie on the ground!"

The reserve Shinigami gripped the hilt of the sword at his waist; this was an Asauchi Zanpakuto.
