"Word of Power Powder!"
"Words are pure!"
"Words of power!"
Three completely different types of Six Paths Spells were generated out of thin air and were effortlessly cast by Anbe Seimei.
Two sky-blue spells formed a protective barrier, blocking the aura of death and buying Anbe Seimei enough time. The subsequent four spells, working in succession, finally managed to withstand the attack that Enma had casually unleashed.
Seeing this, Enma raised an eyebrow, and a look of realization flashed in his eyes.
"Not bad, not bad."
"What a brilliant display of Yin-Yang magic!"
"You flatter me."
Looking up, Abe no Seimei, his eyes filled with coldness, responded in an icy voice.
He didn't question why the other party had attacked, because it was unnecessary.
Just as he would never explain this to another famous Onmyoji, Ashiya Dōman, because he felt that it was the most foolish thing for the weak to question the strong.
However, this bizarre development left the surrounding crowd somewhat baffled.
"This place can serve as your temporary residence until your plan succeeds."
"However, if your plan fails, you will become my subordinate."
After saying these words with amusement, Enma flicked his sleeves, turned around, and disappeared from the spot.
The atmosphere fell silent again, but Enma's unparalleled power left a deep mark on the hearts of every culprit.
"Make me submit"
Yama, who left the inner layers of hell, did not return to the four upper layers.
In hell, there is a place called "Hell's Abyss".
This was one of the pieces of information she gleaned from the guards. Compared to the guards' more detailed knowledge of the inner layers and the abyss of hell, those "naive" individuals...
The guards only knew that such a place existed.
Only those who despise and anger hell will be cast into the abyss of hell.
This reminded Aizen of one person: the black sword.
In the theatrical version, Black Blade was ultimately chained up like a mummy and dragged into the "deepest level of hell." This is because the original storyline's final battle took place on the third level, and Black Blade being dragged down seemed to be pulled to the very bottom, the "fourth level."
However, the truth was as Aizen suspected: he had fallen into an even deeper area.
In contrast, the inner layers of Hell are merely special spaces filled with miasma, thus preventing the guardians who rely on the miasma from invading and capturing them.
To be more specific, this inner layer is not the fifth place of hell, but more like Impel Down 5 in One Piece.
It means 5 floors.
It's unclear whether this was established by Abe no Seimei or based on Aizen's original assessment, which leans towards the fact that this place itself had such an existence.
Because he saw Black Knife Zhu Lian and the others inside; their strength had all reached a certain level.
Zhu Lian only had a few underlings.
As mentioned before, it's impossible for only a few powerful Toki to exist in Hell over so many years, meaning there must be many other sufficiently strong Toki hiding somewhere.
The suspicion surrounding this inner layer of hell increases dramatically. A simple Shinigami world wouldn't have Abe no Seimei, so Aizen concludes that it was there all along.
However, one shouldn't make absolute statements, or it wouldn't be fun if one's words were proven wrong.
That said, there's an even deeper "abyss of hell" to be had.
Given Aizen's insatiable curiosity, how could he possibly let this opportunity pass him by? Having once been determined to seize the Soul King's Palace, he was now certain to explore this completely unknown and mysterious location.
However, the closer Yama got to the depths of hell, the stronger the sense of oppression became.
Ten minutes later.
Standing at the entrance to the abyss, Yama's expression was solemn. Looking at the bottomless darkness, he hesitated to take that step.
"What exactly is going on? Why does even having the thought of finding out give me such a strong sense of threat?"
"If even with power beyond the dimension of death, one can sense danger, what exactly is hidden here?"
The stronger and more rational a person is, the more they will trust their intuition more than their reason.
In the story, the spiritual pressure possessed by the level 1000 Honkai Impact 3rd is imperceptible to those below level 1000, and Honkai Impact 3rd also lacks the ability to sense Ichigo Mugetsu's spiritual pressure.
According to Aizen's theory, this is a difference in dimensions, but even so, the weaker party will feel uneasy; this is intuition.
In such situations, the weaker party might still take the initiative to attack the stronger party, not because they are particularly confident.
In that situation, Yoruichi and the others, facing the collapse of Blue, had already revealed their last trump card, and forcing an attack was nothing more than a last glimmer of hope in self-deception.
Aizen's case is a special, isolated incident.
Having already experienced dimensional crushing, the fact that they couldn't sense Ichigo's spiritual pressure meant they already knew the truth.
This wasn't despair, it was a complete mental breakdown. It was as if he had spent so many years scheming and abandoning illusions to achieve his evolution, only to be told that someone else had actually surpassed him by a whole dimension just with their Zanpakuto. Anyone would have a mental breakdown in that situation.
As mentioned earlier, it was because its true inner thoughts were understood by the Hogyoku that it stopped evolving.
These two events are separate. The mental breakdown is unrelated to the emotional breakdown. Whether or not Aizen had a mental breakdown is not important. As long as Aizen's true intention is to become stronger, the Hogyoku can help him continue to evolve. Therefore, there is no causal relationship between these two events.
We've strayed from the topic; let's return to Enma.
"Even if it's an existence that even a level-eight power can't match, it doesn't matter, it's just a puppet anyway."
After much hesitation, Enma hardened her eyes and slowly raised her right foot.
Boom! Aizen's heart stopped, far away in Soul Society. An immense sense of impending death made him stand up in horror.
"impossible!"
Aizen blurted it out instinctively.
After a long while, Aizen, having regained his composure, realized that his forehead was already soaked with cold sweat.
He suppressed the tremor in his heart, his hands clenching and unclenching repeatedly…
A life-or-death crisis! The moment Enma took that step, the sense of crisis escalated into a life-or-death crisis! But this was not the fundamental reason why someone like him lost his composure.
This world is quite complex. He wouldn't be surprised if there were beings beyond the level of the previous one. If the future Ichigo Kurosaki can do it, why can't others?
While there may not yet be any beings in Under One Person and Nurarihyon no Mago that Aizen cannot fathom, the mafia is still in its development stage, and there are beings in the Katekyo Hitman Reborn system with a very low profile that Aizen can take very seriously.
Not the one with Wang Hao… the boring White Gesso.
Peeping into parallel worlds, and even transferring his parallel self to another world, is indeed a very interesting thing.
From a purely power standpoint, she isn't someone Aizen can't deal with, but a certain degree of respect is inevitable. In some respects, the two have quite a few things in common.
The most enigmatic character in Katekyo Hitman Reborn! is Uncle Kawahira, who claims to be one of only two pure Earthlings and has lived as a human for countless years.
That guy never truly revealed the limits of his power; in the end, all we could see was a drop in the ocean of his potential. However, he was known as the world's rule-keeper who maintained world stability.
In terms of status, he is comparable to the Ancient One in Marvel. Compared to the Ancient One's status as the guardian of Earth, Kawabira has a higher level of prestige and his bottom line of strength is unfathomable.

Chapter 309 Similarities between Aizen and Seimei (2/3)
Enma stood there stunned for a long time before finally slowly retracting her outstretched right foot.
At the same time, all the previous unease and premonitions vanished, and everything seemed as if it had never happened.
After taking one last deep look at the bottomless abyss, Enma reluctantly withdrew from the place.
Perhaps they're afraid to gamble.
However, no one saw the look of excitement and madness that appeared on Enma's pretty face.
"It won't be boring anymore."
Once Aizen calmed down, he felt no fear or tension, only excitement at the terrifying unknown.
Originally, whether it was Anbei Qingming, Cao Yanbing, Toshiro, or even the transmigrator brothers, a large part of them were at most cultivated and anticipated as amusement and entertainment.
There aren't many who truly have the potential to become his rivals, and that potential may not translate into reality; it's uncertain how many of them will be able to keep up with him.
Compared to these merely "toys" that offer only possibilities...
It was only a clear sense of threat, one that made him feel far superior to himself, that finally stirred up some of the man's competitive spirit.
Therefore, this special "adventure"
Instead of making Aizen feel somber, he became quite lively and happy.
With this in mind, Enma returned to the third floor.
Looking at the guards who remained stiff and motionless like machines, Enma pondered for a moment, then waved her hand, conjuring up a dark yet incredibly magnificent palace and various buildings in the very center of the third level. Relying on the Yin-Yang power she controlled, she drastically transformed the third level, which resembled a mountain basin.
Before long, the entire third floor seemed to have been completely transformed.
In the very center, the most magnificent hall was inscribed with the words "Hall of Yama!" Yama flicked his sleeves again, and four distinctly different figures appeared in front of him one after another.
At this point, Yama, having relinquished the power of Hell Mode and returned the energy to the guardians, strolled leisurely to the front of the main hall and solemnly declared: "Today, the Hall of Yama, the King of Hell, stands!"
At the same time, Enma's majestic and stern voice resounded throughout the world.
Hmm, that's an exaggeration.
But her voice had already spread throughout Japan, and no matter which faction of yokai or onmyoji, or even the supernatural beings and the 13th Division of the Shinigami, could possibly have missed it.
If she hadn't escaped hellish conditions first, it wouldn't have been difficult for her to spread her fame worldwide.
Even so, this action caused a huge uproar.
Nura Clan.
The voices of Nura Rihan and the others, who were hosting a grand banquet for Inugami and Erigor, suddenly stopped.
The fiery atmosphere instantly turned icy. "Establishing the Yama Palace—has this meant they've completely usurped their divine authority?"
Kurotabo frowned and said in a low voice.
"No, if it were that easy, why would they have bothered with all that work before?"
Having already been thoroughly misled, Riban pondered and rejected this conjecture, then offered his own reasonable deduction: "Those counterfeiters have probably already established themselves and are no longer afraid of any power's covetousness, so they use this method to gain more faith and accelerate their ascension to godhood."
That's actually a very bad situation.
His expression was stern and devoid of any seriousness.
If those yokai who aspire to become gods actually succeed, they might have no reason to attack the Nura Clan again.
The worst situation is when failure means we still need to find ways to gather manpower, and the opponent has actually gained momentum.
The people present had their own thoughts, but none of them interrupted.
Nura Rihan suddenly burst into laughter, shook his head, and said, "Haha, why think so much?"
No matter how you look at it, our Nura Clan isn't the primary enemy we're facing.
The Nura Clan isn't afraid of fighting, but there's no need for them to be foolish enough to be the first to stick their necks out. There must be someone more anxious than us right now.”
The atmosphere immediately warmed up considerably.
"Honestly, they're all so dull, it's terrifying."
"Ha, you're a monster!"
"Even monsters can't help but be frightened; they almost spilled their wine."
The Mikadoin family.
As a member of a famous Onmyoji family, the middle-aged man, Mikadoin Yuhiro, the tenth head of the family, twitched his brow.
"hell"
"I hope nothing bad has happened to our ancestors."
"No, I have to go to the Holy Land and ask the previous leaders."
The Kasakain family, the yokai of Shikoku, the yokai of Tono, the world of spirits, and even the mortal regimes were all caught off guard by the sudden accident, and their reactions varied.
Naturally, there were also spies from the Soul Society among them.
Sitting in his office, Aizen knew that the Hell Butterflies and the Ritten Team would soon be sending a message about a meeting.
