Chapter 73: Chapter 37: Quincy Power, Soul Strength! (Part 1)

A dark red, spectral light penetrated the chaotic clouds, spilling onto the silver-gleaming sand.

A Void Beast was wandering aimlessly, the milky eyes on its fleshy tumors flashing with a bloodthirsty light in the darkness.

Alex flicked a single drop of ice crystal, completely flash-freezing the Void Beast. He then flashed to the beast’s side, pressing one hand against its massive body. Rings of white halos spread outward from his palm, enveloping the creature entirely to ensure it could not escape.

Having secured the target, Alex turned to Ade.

"Come. Try to use the abilities of your left and right hands simultaneously to completely break it down into Reishi!"

Ade appeared somewhat hesitant and gritted his teeth.

"God, I can’t even control the power of my left hand myself. Just a light touch caused the Village Chief to age decades in an instant. I’m afraid..."

Alex’s face remained as calm as an unrippled pond.

"Ade, no need to call me god just teacher Alex is enough and you must remember that all powers are neither inherently good nor evil; it solely depends on how you choose to wield them!"

"Now, do as I say. Close your eyes. Imagine your right hand as a bow and your left hand as an arrow. Merge the two powers together!"

Ade did as Alex instructed and closed his eyes. He spread his feet slightly apart, the hem of his clothes fluttering without any wind. As he slowly raised his right hand, countless blue Reishi from the surrounding earth began to converge toward his palm.

The outline of a bow appeared first, its curve as graceful as a crescent moon. Intertwining patterns of spectral blue and crimson flowed dynamically across its surface.

Next came the bowstring, condensed from the purest Reishi, gleaming with a brilliant, transparent luster.

The corners of Alex’s mouth curled up slightly.

"Very good. Now use the propelling force of your left hand to draw upon the stasis force of your right hand..."

Ade’s left hand flared with a crimson radiance. A crystalline, red arrow materialized out of thin air, resting perfectly in his palm.

The spectral blue of his right hand and the crimson of his left intertwined into a spiraling ribbon of light. The surrounding grains of sand suddenly levitated, forming rotating planetary rings that orbited the boy.

Bathed in this radiant light, his small, frail body surprisingly exuded an aura of divine majesty.

"Excellent. Now open your eyes and aim at this Hollow!"

Ade opened his eyes. Seeing the blue bow and arrow comprised entirely of Reishi in his hands, the eight pupils within his eye sockets trembled violently!

He looked at Alex in sheer disbelief.

"T-Teacher Alex... what is this...?"

Alex nodded slightly to encourage him.

"This is a power capable of completely eradicating the Void Beasts. You can call it the Quincy Power!"

His voice carried a trace of profound awe.

At this very moment, he was personally witnessing the birth of the most primordial power in the Bleach universe. This Reishi bow was precisely the origin of the Quincy power that would be wielded by generations to come.

"Now, draw the bow and release the arrow!"

Subconsciously pulling the bowstring to its absolute limit, Ade gently relaxed his grip.

The moment the arrow left the string, the sharp screech of tearing air pierced through the chaos. The sea-blue streak of the arrow flashed across the sand like a shooting star, penetrating the Void Beast’s head with flawless precision.

This time, there would be no possibility of resurrection.

Even Alex’s freezing power hadn’t been able to block the sheer penetrative force of Ade’s strike.

The arrow pierced directly through the Void Beast’s forehead!

The creature froze for a split second before entirely disintegrating into the purest form of Reishi.

Silently, the space between sky and earth filled with blue Reishi, drifting toward Ade like luminescent plankton. At the same time, a massive amount of Reishi also began converging around Alex...

A prompt suddenly popped up before Alex’s eyes.

[Pure Soul Power detected. Absorb?]

Alex couldn’t help but let out a sound of surprise.

’I can absorb Soul Power too?’

He noticed that the Reincarnation Talent Skill [Plunder] on his attribute panel was emitting a faint, spectral glow!

First it was the Divinity of the Hydra in his native world, and now it was the Soul Power of the Bleach universe. Just what kind of existence was a Hunter of the Reincarnation Space?

It seemed his qualification as a World Hunter was absolutely not limited to solely plundering Fallen Reincarnators, as the Reincarnation Space had initially described!

An increase in his Soul Strength would allow him to better resist Athena’s curse , insidious attempts to assimilate his Cosmo.

"Absorb!"
