Ulquiorra's expression changed slightly the instant the Spirit Sword and Zanpakuto clashed.

Before anyone could react, the longsword made of spiritual particles shattered into countless fragments, which scattered into the air, accompanied by an indescribable sense of terrifying pressure.

Genryu: Fuzhan!

The heavens and earth seemed to be cleaved in two, turning into black and white, and then froze for a moment.

Ulquiorra instinctively dodged to the side, but the aftershock of the slash still sent his somewhat frail body flying.

The sword's remaining force was undiminished, stirring up an unprecedented sandstorm in the boundless desert, with endless white sand whistling down from the sky.

In such a magnificent scene, Ulquiorra's figure appears as small as a grain of sand.

The thick, silvery sand was ravaged by huge ravines that stretched for dozens of miles, like an abyss extending to the horizon.

Looking at the absurd scene before him, Ulquiorra's will to fight was somewhat affected.

Could I really handle such a monstrous being?

he does not know.

But Ulquiorra did not have the same fear of death as most people.

In his eyes, neither life nor death is meaningful.

With that thought, he spread his hands in front of him, gathering spiritual pressure. A large amount of spiritual particles condensed, forming a spiritual particle spear that emitted a pulsating light.

Seeing this, Ru Yueming nodded in satisfaction. Facing a formidable enemy, not giving up easily is what makes a qualified soldier.

Never be like Stark, lying on the ground when you can't win, looking like you're at someone's mercy, completely unlike what a Vasto Lorde should be.

That's too embarrassing.

Without a word, Ulquiorra gripped his Spirit Spear tightly, his black wings fluttered slightly, and he instantly traversed the distance of space, arriving in front of Ruyueming.

The spirit spear tore through the air and thrust forward without hesitation.

As the moon shines, Ming retaliates with his sword, cleaving the Spirit Spear in two with a reverse kasaya strike, then turns and slashes at Ulquiorra's chest.

Parting Clouds, Reversing Waves, Oboro, Lingering Heart, Sealing Movement, Mortal Blade, Flying Boat Crossing, Ashina Cross Slash...

Magnificent sword techniques were displayed one by one in Ruyueming's hands, and as he got excited, his spiritual pressure was like the sea before a storm, surging and raging, wave after wave.

At first, Ulquiorra could barely keep up with Akira's pace, but as the opponent's spiritual pressure became increasingly ferocious, he began to struggle.

Even if you use Cero, it's the same.

Finally, inspired by Ruyueming, he fused Cero and Spirit Spear, a violent aura swirling around them, distorting the surrounding space.

The powerful spiritual pressure once again distorted the spiritual particles permeating the air, causing them to spontaneously gather into raindrops, which fell with a pattering sound, filled with an indescribable poetic beauty.

Thunder Spear!

Ulquiorra hurled the Spirit Spear in his hand, which landed precisely where the moon was.

In an instant, thunder roared, its booming sound echoing across the sky.

The bursts of lightning surged under the moonlight, forming countless rays of light, as if to divide the night sky into countless parts.

But when the impact subsided, the moon-like, complete body appeared before Ulquiorra.

That powerful blow only obliterated the haori (outer garment) covering his clothes.

He ripped off his tattered shihaka armor, revealing his strong and perfect body under the moonlight. His brute strength was evident between his muscles, exuding a powerful sense of oppression.

"Too weak, Ulquiorra."

"With this level of skill, it's not enough to satisfy me."

Ru Yueming looked at Ulquiorra in the distance and said with dissatisfaction, "What other abilities do you have? Hurry up and bring them out so I can taste them."

Ulquiorra also acted quite straightforwardly, answering honestly:

"This is all the strength I have."

Ru Yueming sighed and shook his head: "In that case, let's end the fight with a single, ordinary punch."

"I hope you can learn something from the terrifying experience of facing life and death..."

"The meaning of life!"

The moment he finished speaking, his shoulders exploded with demonic spiritual pressure, and a violent current of energy burst forth from them, radiating an indescribable powerful oppression.

One bone!

Ulquiorra's pupils contracted, and he subconsciously folded his wings behind him. At the same time, he crossed his hands in front of him, gathering all his spiritual pressure on them to enhance the defensive strength of his steel skin.

However, the moment his fist struck, he still sensed the aura of death that Ru Yueming had described.

There was no time to think; time seemed to stand still.

boom! !

A deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth. A figure was sent flying backward by the impact of the fist and bone, crashing viciously into the sand, causing the boundless desert to collapse instantly and form a huge basin.

Spiderweb-like fissures spread outwards from Ulquiorra's landing point in all directions, and the desert seemed to groan in despair.

When the dust settled, Ulquiorra awoke to excruciating pain, his wings shattered and his arms hanging limply at his sides.

At least a third of his bones were broken.

It can remain conscious entirely thanks to its extremely strong super-fast regeneration ability.

He shook his somewhat dazed head, looked up, and his eyes met those of Ru Yueming, who was perched high above the edge of the basin.

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, I haven't grasped the meaning of life."

Even when he was beaten to the brink of death, Ulquiorra showed no hostility; he was simply frustrated that he couldn't find the answer to his question.

"The meaning of life?"

Asuka tilted her head. "I once found a child in Soul Society whose personality was somewhat similar to yours, and he asked me this question as well."

My answer at the time was that living doesn't necessarily have meaning.

"But if you survive, you'll discover interesting things."

"Like now, if you hadn't encountered me, how could you have experienced the thrill of being beaten?"

Ulquiorra seemed lost in thought.

This answer is much more serious than the previous one about fries at the dock.

The person in front of me may seem unconventional, but he is actually a person of great wisdom.

"Actually, the fact that you can think of this question shows that you already possess a certain level of wisdom."

Ru Yueming bluffed, "But one person's wisdom alone cannot solve all the problems in the world."

"The power of one person is ultimately limited."

"Even a wise man like me, with extraordinary wisdom, needs the help of others, let alone you?"

"By the way, my Hueco Mundo is quite large..."

…………

After being bombarded with words by Ruyueming, Ulquiorra defected, surrendered with courtesy, and cried out that he wanted to join Las Noches and become a part of it.

And so, like the bright moon, they returned home laden with their spoils.

When the stargazing sphere, comparable in size to a palace, appeared in the plaza of Las Noches, cheers erupted from the Hollows.

"As expected of the King!"

"Strong and powerful, so strong!"

"I really want to be the king's mount, so that the king can ride on my back!"

"Your Majesty, we love and respect you!"

Harribel and Nelieel also stared in astonishment at the enormous iron sphere. The Hollows imprisoned within it were at least Adjuchas-level.

The white Hollow that followed Ruyue Ming also exuded the same spiritual pressure as them.

Even stronger.

Especially when they saw each other's clean faces, the two fell into deep thought.

Another self-destructing Vasto Lorde?

If we were to pick the most excited person from the virtual crowd, it would undoubtedly be Szayelaporro.

Throughout his long life, he had studied countless virtual swarms, but this was the first time he had ever seen one of such high quality as the Blackwing Archdemon.

More importantly, a mutated individual has emerged within this group, and it has even managed to autonomously break through its own limitations.

This is an exaggeration.

If we could dissect it, it would definitely speed up the progress of the face-breaking experiment.

Ulquiorra, however, did not refuse his request after hearing it, but instead asked him a question:

Do you understand the meaning of life?

Szayelaporro paused for a moment, then grinned and said:

"of course."

"The meaning of life lies in the pursuit of perfection!"

He then shared his previous research on conception, and after several exchanges with Ruyueming, he came to understand a more perfect form of life than the conception he had learned.

Although he hasn't figured it out yet, he firmly believes that with Aizen's help, he will one day evolve to perfection.

Ulquiorra seemed to have realized something.

Because of the defeat of the "powerful enemy," Ruyueming held a grand banquet in Hueco Mundo, mingling with a group of strange and wonderful Hollows in the largest square.

They ate meat and drank wine to their hearts' content, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

Ulquiorra, on the other hand, wanders through the virtual world, constantly asking what the meaning of life is.

Barragán's answer was: Read more books.

Nellyel pondered, "To be a knight of justice, to protect the justice in one's heart."

Harribel said decisively, "Just like this is fine."
