Death: Captain Millennium

"Has it been launched yet?"

Lin Yuyi leaned forward slightly. The impact of the launch made him lose his balance and he almost sat down at the bottom of the pillar.

He was currently inside the Tianzhu Chariot, and the powerful thrust instantly pinned his legs to the bottom. This immense acceleration filled Lin Yu, who had never experienced anything like it before, with a surge of excitement. After all, this was his first time riding a large rocket!

Standing in this small and enclosed space, Lin Yu took a deep breath and tried to calm his slightly flustered mood. He knew that all he had to do next was to wait quietly for the Tianzhu Chariot to successfully break through the seventy-two spiritual walls and reach the Spirit King Palace.

Time ticked by, and the Heavenly Pillar Chariot continued to rise at an astonishing speed. In a blink of an eye, it successfully broke through the first spiritual barrier, followed by the second, the third... Each breakthrough was accompanied by brilliant light and violent energy fluctuations, as if the entire world was shaken.

However, when they had broken through about half of the spiritual barriers, the situation suddenly changed. The Tianzhu chariot, which had been flying smoothly, began to tremble violently, emitting bursts of low roaring sounds. Lin Yu clearly felt the strong vibrations from within the chariot, and his entire body swayed from side to side.

"Oh my god! Is the power contained in the spiritual wall so strong? I must resist it no matter what, otherwise I will be doomed!"

Lin Yu couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, and a feeling of unease spread in his heart. Faced with such strong pressure, he felt that he was powerless and could only watch the situation develop.

In desperation, Lin Yu had no choice but to sit down heavily on the ground. At this moment, all he could do was pray silently, hoping that this antique Tianzhu chariot could successfully pass through all the spiritual walls. After all, this was his only support at the moment.

As the saying goes, "What you fear will surely come to pass." As the Heavenly Pillar Chariot struggled through more than sixty layers of spiritual walls, the situation grew increasingly critical. The Heavenly Pillar Chariot began to shake violently, its amplitude increasing as if it would fall apart at any moment. Simultaneously, the pillar itself trembled violently, as if madly, unable to withstand the immense pressure. Worse still, a tiny crack had appeared on the exterior of the pillar. Although he was unaware of the cause, it was already a serious threat.

Time ticked by, and just as he waited with bated breath, the Tianzhu Chariot finally successfully passed through the sixty-fifth spiritual barrier. But at the same time, something unexpected happened. The pillar, which had previously only had a few cracks on the outside, now began to develop fine cracks within. These cracks spread rapidly like a spider web, threatening to tear the entire Tianzhu Chariot into shreds. Seeing this, Lin Yu's face turned pale with fear, and he was extremely panicked. If the Tianzhu Chariot was truly destroyed, he would be in a truly desperate situation.

"Hold on! You must hold on!"

Lin Yu screamed inwardly at the top of his lungs, his fists clenched tightly, veins bulging on his forehead, his face awash with tension and anxiety. He knew that if the Tianzhu Chariot was completely damaged, he would have to rely on his own physical strength to break through the layers of spiritual barriers. However, this would be extremely difficult and risky, and it was definitely not the situation Lin Yu wanted to see.

Finally, after breaking through seventy spiritual walls, this weathered old antique came to the end of its life, completed its long and arduous mission, and was completely scrapped.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the entire celestial chariot shattered into countless pieces of varying sizes, which flew in all directions. The powerful impact distorted the surrounding space, as if the end of the world had arrived.

Fortunately, Lin Yu reacted quickly. He had anticipated this situation and had already made adequate preparations before the Tianzhu Chariot shattered. With a thought, a purple light shone from his body, and his Purple Star Domain instantly expanded, forming an incredibly solid shield that tightly enveloped him. It was precisely because of the protection of this Purple Star Domain that Lin Yu was able to survive the terrifying explosion unscathed. Otherwise, he would have been crushed by the immense force unleashed by the Spiritual Wall.

Meanwhile, far away in Soul Society, Shiba Kūkaku was still staring intently at the sky. Suddenly, she saw streaks of light as dazzling as shooting stars streaking across the sky, trailing long flames as they plummeted towards the ground like a shower of meteors.

"Could it be... that the Tianzhu Chariot was destroyed?"

Shiba Kūkaku's heart tightened, her heart instantly rising to her throat. She stared intently at the objects streaking across the sky, quickly realizing that these so-called "shooting stars" weren't actually meteors at all, but rather fragments of the shattered Celestial Pillar Chariot. Each fragment contained incredibly powerful energy fluctuations, and if it accidentally hit the ground, it would undoubtedly create deep, bottomless pits.

"I wonder what Captain Lin Yu's current situation is like? Could it be that he's already sent it? It shouldn't be like this, right?"

Kong He pondered this inwardly, his brow furrowed, his face filled with worry. After all, if Lin Yu really died like this, wouldn't all the promises he made earlier be in vain, never to be fulfilled? Thinking of this, Kong He couldn't help but grow even more worried.

"Wow! Look, there's a shooting star streaking across the sky!"

At that moment, someone suddenly shouted, drawing the countless Shinigami of Seireitei's gazes upward. Dazzling streaks of light shot through the sky like lightning, leaving long trails that resembled dancing silver threads, a breathtaking sight. Bewildered by this wondrous spectacle, the Shinigami hurriedly clasped their hands together and devoutly made silent wishes toward the shooting stars. For a moment, the entire Seireitei was filled with the sounds of hope and longing for beautiful wishes.

Only Captain Yamamoto knows what these so-called meteors are. Lin Yu had previously gone to the Shiba family to borrow the Tianzhu Chariot, hoping to use it to rush to the Soul King Palace.

Captain Yamamoto was well aware of this. Seeing the meteors, he immediately realized that something must have malfunctioned with the Tenju Chariot, causing an explosion that sent debris plummeting into Soul Society. Thinking of this, Captain Yamamoto's expression grew increasingly grim.

"I wonder what happened to that little ghost? He shouldn't die, but he's going to suffer a lot. The spiritual wall is not that easy to break through."

The captain murmured to himself, he was still confident in Lin Yu's strength.

Lin Yu was in a miserable state at this moment. His Ziwei Realm was constantly being squeezed by the power of the spiritual wall. He madly output spiritual pressure to maintain the status quo in order to prevent the realm from being destroyed.
