3 The Soul King's Palace
As Blake made his way forward with Byakuya,
they ventured deeper into the desolate realm, their surroundings filled with ruins and remnants of a once vibrant world.
Blake's thoughts were consumed with a sense of curiosity to uncover the secrets that lay hidden within this realm.
"You should build a temporary shelter for you and your team," Blake suggested to Byakuya, realizing the importance of having a secure place to rest and regroup.
"Once that is done, we can begin our exploration of the nearby ruins. There may be valuable clues that can help us understand what transpired here."
Byakuya nodded in agreement, acknowledging the practicality of Blake's suggestion. "Very well. I will gather our team and initiate the construction of a temporary base," he replied, with his stoic face.
As he parted ways with him , he continued his journey towards what he believed to be the heart of this realm—the fabled Seireitei.
The sight of the majestic stone walls, known as Seireiheki, filled him with awe.
But to his surprise these walls still stood tall without any damage shining anew, contrasting sharply with the desolation of the surrounding buildings.
Made of the rare and powerful Sekkiseki stone, these walls were renowned for their ability to nullify all spiritual energy, creating an impenetrable barrier.
The spherical barrier formed by the Seireiheki enveloped the city, extending both above and below the ground, effectively preventing any spiritual entities from breaching its defenses.
Passing through the entrance gate, Blake ventured deeper into the heart of the Seireitei,
where the grandeur of the Senzaikyū would have stood in its glory. .
The Senzaikyū stood as a symbol of justice and punishment, housing the imprisoned criminals of the Soul Society.
But now, only remnants of its once formidable presence remained, a stark reminder of the ravages of time
Undeterred, Blake's gaze was drawn to a portal atop the mountain which was inconspicuous from afar,
where the Senzaikyū had once commanded attention.
Intrigued Blake made his way towards it ,
As he stepped through the portal, his surroundings shifted and transformed, a whirlwind of light and energy enveloping him.
He found himself standing amidst towering white walls, surrounded by an ethereal atmosphere that whispered of ancient power
Before him stretched a long paneled path, suspended in the air and leading to the inner portion of the Palace itself.
Each step he took filled him with a sense of reverence and awe, as if he was stepping into a realm beyond mortal comprehension.
As he walked forward, he came upon an open space where six different paths intersected
He made a decision and started walking in a straight path, guided by an unexplainable intuition.
His footsteps echoed in the empty space, filling the air with a sense of anticipation.
It was then that he stumbled upon a grand palace,
its magnificence surpassing anything he had ever witnessed before.
The very sight of it stirred his soul.
As Blake stood before the majestic palace, its towering spires reaching towards the heavens, he could feel the palpable aura of power that emanated from within its walls.
When suddenly the voice of the System resonated within his mind, revealing him about about this awe-inspiring palace.
"This is the Greater Soul King Palace," the voice explained. "It is a place where the soul king rests, as the ruler of the Soul Society and the Soul Realm."
"No one can enter it without his permission."
As the system voice ended,
A surge of realization washed over Blake as the memory of about the Soul King and the Division Zero, the elite guards who protected the palace in Bleach, resurfaced within him.
The paths he had seen earlier, branching out like a network of possibilities, were likely connected to the five giant floating discs that housed the individual cities entrusted to each member of the Royal Guard by the Soul King.
Furthermore, a formidable shield of 72 impregnable barriers fortified the sanctity of the esteemed Soul King Palace,
erecting an impenetrable fortress between it and the Seireitei.
And at the pinnacle of it all stood a floating cylindrical structure at whose end is the actual palace the very locus upon which Blake now found himself, Greater Soul King Palace.
Leaving his thoughts behind
Blake took a deep breath and stepped forward,
suddenly feeling a strange harmony between his presence and the palace
As if sensing his presence the palace doors swung open as if welcoming him inside.
He entered cautiously, his eyes widening at the opulence and intricacy of the palace's interior.
With each echoing step that resonated through the vast chambers, Blake embarked on a mesmerizing journey through the inner sanctum of the palace.
The grandeur of the surroundings left him in awe, as the opulent halls and corridors stretch before him as far as the eye can see, adorned with exquisite artwork, tapestries, and intricate murals.
As he explored further, he marveled at the Glowing crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceilings, casting a soft, ethereal light throughout the palace. The air is permeated with a sense of mysticism and spiritual energy
Each step he took reinforced his growing connection to this realm and the responsibility he now bore as its ruler.
After some exploration, Blake found himself in a chamber adorned with a shimmering mirror. Curiosity compelled him to approach, and as he gazed on it, he saw his own handsome face which possesses a perfect balance of masculine features and ethereal charm, captivating anyone who gaze upon it.
Leaving behind his appreciation, he continued his journey towards the very heart of the palace
Where lies the throne room, a vast chamber of immense significance.
The throne, elevated on a dais, is a seat of authority and power, where the he would be presiding over the affairs of the Soul Society
As he settled upon the throne, a surge of connection coursed through his being, binding him to the realm itself, feeling a new found power within
With newfound clarity, Blake realized the extent of his abilities as he delved deeper within his newfound power.
He discovered the ability to perceive and traverse the realm with a mere thought, his consciousness extending to every corner and crevice of the Soul Society.
When a sudden realization dawned upon him.....
