With the birth of the four Death Gods!
A rift suddenly tore open in the chaotic sky, and a golden beam of light, like a sharp sword, plunged down, precisely enveloping Li Yu.
Tiny golden particles flowed within the light beam, like billions of miniature stars, eagerly rushing into his body.
Prompts kept appearing before Li Yu's eyes.
[Absorbing Divinity +1!]
[Absorbing Divinity +1!]
...Li Yu could clearly feel that the wisp of Divinity within him, originally slender, was rapidly thickening, coiling around his soul core like a vine.
It wasn't until he gained 20 points of Divinity that the golden light beam slowly dissipated, leaving behind a sky full of golden light dots circling around him, lingering for a long time.
This was a gift from the World Consciousness?
Li Yu vaguely understood that the birth of the Death Gods was the most urgently needed transcendent power for the world.
Death Gods slay the Void Beasts that have lost their reason, purify them, and send them back into Reincarnation, allowing the entire world to maintain its normal operation.
"Master, what's wrong with you? What was that golden light just now?"
Ade asked cautiously from the side. At this moment, Li Yu's eyes were golden, and his entire body emitted a sacred golden radiance, even his hair was tinged with a faint golden glow.
"Sure enough, Master is a god, and he still insists he isn't!"
Ade's mouth couldn't help but pout high. His heart became even more convinced that Li Yu was indeed a god.
Li Yu did not respond immediately. His consciousness was undergoing a miraculous transformation.
His gaze seemed to penetrate layers of space, falling directly upon the Aquarius Palace in the Saint Seiya World.
There, the aquarius gold cloth floated quietly on an ice-sculpted jade throne. The ice-crystal-like armor reflected a faint blue light.
Sensing his gaze, the Cloth suddenly trembled slightly, and a faint blue light seeped from the armor's crevices, emitting a resentful aura like a child who had been wronged.
Uh, Li Yu's mouth twitched slightly... choosing the Sagittarius Cloth to venture into Reincarnation did seem a bit unfair to his destined Cloth.
Just wait a little longer. Soon, I will bring you into the Reincarnation Space as well.
As his Divinity increased, Li Yu discovered an advantage: even when he was in a Reincarnation World, he could sense his Aquarius space, allowing him to return in time if any emergencies arose.
"Master, Master, are you alright?"
Ade's repeated calls finally brought Li Yu's consciousness back.
Li Yu regained his senses, the golden light around him gradually receded, and his golden eyes returned to deep black.
He shook his head and said softly.
"Nothing, just seeing their changes made me a little emotional."
Not far away, Tsunayashiro Kyogen was raising his hand to examine his body.
His slender eyelids narrowed slightly, and his fingertips easily passed through his sleeve, a look of surprise immediately appearing on his face.
"Li... Lord Li Yu, we seem to have no bodies?"
"You are now Death Gods!"
Li Yu stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over the four youths dressed in shihakusho.
"From now on, your duty is to guide and purify the Void Beasts, maintaining the balance of life and death in the world!"
He paused, then explained.
"The reason you feel you have no physical form is because the concentration of spiritual particles in your bodies is too low. Once you absorb enough spiritual particles, you will naturally condense a physical body."
Clang!
"What about this then?"
Shi Feng Yuan Ye Hua suddenly drew the black long sword at her waist, its blade gleaming dully under the firelight.
She tilted her head, curiously staring at the blade.
"Why do we all have a sword?"
"This sword is called a Zanpakuto, it is the materialization of a Death God's soul."
"Each sword has its own name and special abilities. For the next few days, what you need to do is absorb spiritual particles, try to resonate with the sword, and learn its name."
In the days that followed, five figures could always be seen in the desert outside the village.
Ade's Quincy Light and the spiritual particle blades of the four Death Gods intertwined, red, blue, and inky black lights tracing brilliant arcs under the chaotic sky.
The four youths, worthy of being the ancestors of the Death God families, progressed no less than Ade. In just a few days, they could already participate in real combat against Void Beasts.
Working together, the five found it even easier to kill Void Beasts. Even the strongest Void Beast could not withstand their combined attack.
Tsunayashiro Kyogen made the fastest progress. Dressed in black shihakusho, he weaved among powerful Void Beasts, each strike of his Zanpakuto precisely piercing the Void Beasts' vital points.
Shi Feng Yuan Ye Hua could condense a faint golden barrier, preventing her companions from suffering fatal attacks.
Kuchiki Kyo's Zanpakuto, when swung, carried purifying spiritual particles that drifted down like light snow, containing infinite killing intent within its exquisite beauty!
Black flames ignited on Shiba Enjou's sword, each strike completely igniting the Void Beasts.
The spiritual pressure of these few also grew stronger day by day, gradually condensing from initial transparent phantoms into semi-physical forms.
At the same time, Li Yu's soul strength also soared wildly, quickly breaking through the one million mark.
In his leisure time, Li Yu would also personally guide them in the techniques of Hakuda and Shunpo.
However, the techniques for using Zanpakuto required them to figure out on their own.
All Saints were forbidden from using weapons. When weapons absolutely had to be used, permission first had to be obtained from the Goddess, and then the weapons would be issued by Libra.
Libra's weapons were mostly blunt instruments like shields and staves.
Swords, such things, were destined to have no connection with Li Yu.
The four youths, having just gained new abilities, had a blast, often practicing Shunpo in the air, chasing each other, their figures constantly disappearing and reappearing.
Li Yu watched their playful figures and suddenly noticed Ade standing to the side. Although his face held a smile, there was a hint of imperceptible loss hidden in his eyes.
Ade had only awakened the power of a Quincy, making him seem somewhat out of place with his four young companions.
Li Yu walked to his side and said indifferently.
"Ade, do you also want to gain the power of a Death God?"
"R-really, Master?"
Ade was still a youth after all, and the expression on his face immediately betrayed him.
"Of course."
Li Yu raised an eyebrow. If the future Soul King couldn't use Death God power, then no one in this world could.
However, Ade's situation was special. He was a special being chosen by the World Consciousness and could not obtain Death God power through soul separation.
But Ade's situation was actually very similar to Li Yu's.
As a Gold Saint, Li Yu had long since cultivated his soul, consciousness, and body into a unified whole.
Even Hades could not easily extract his soul from his body.
The problem Ade faced was no challenge for Li Yu. A Cosmo at the peak of the Seventh Sense naturally had countless application methods.
Li Yu slowly exhaled.
"Watch closely, I will only demonstrate once."
His voice was calm and unwavering, and he spread his hands in the air.
Ice-blue spiritual particles exploded in his palms, transforming into countless tiny ice crystals, which then condensed into a completely transparent long sword in Li Yu's hand.
The blade was entirely transparent, as if carved from ancient ice, glowing with an ethereal blue luster. Within the blade, countless spiritual particles flowed, like a living Zanpakuto.
This ice Zanpakuto had no hilt. The blade and his palm were integrated, as if an ice crystal extension had grown from his flesh.
The method Li Yu used was inspired by the Capricorn Shura's Holy Sword and did not violate Saint regulations.
"A so-called Zanpakuto is merely a means of spiritual particle manifestation. In fact, all attack methods are simply extensions of one's own power!"
Li Yu raised his hand, and the transparent blade traced a shallow mark on the sand, ice chips condensing into frost along its path.
"Drive your spiritual particles, and imbue them with your desire to protect the world. Then you can unleash your own unique Shikai."
Li Yu stepped forward half a pace, the transparent blade drawing a graceful arc in the air.
There was no earth-shattering roar, only the crackling sound of air freezing. Wherever the blade's light reached, the hundred-mile space before Ade's eyes instantly condensed into a colossal glacier, layers of ice mountains rising abruptly, with numerous Void Beasts frozen within.
The immortal bodies of these Void Beasts instantly disintegrated, turning into a sky full of spiritual particles.
This also proved that Li Yu's strike was a soul attack!
Ade's mouth hung open, speechless for a long time... When will I ever reach Master's level?
The newly appointed Death Gods, hearing the commotion, all looked over.
Like Ade, their pupils contracted to pinprick size, with only one thought in their minds.
"So... so strong!"
