Chapter 175: The Void Formed by Will

"I don't want to die! Damn it!"

That guy let out a furious roar, and the white mask on his face completely materialized!

He astonishingly sent Jin flying with a single blow!

"I just want to survive! Is that so wrong?!"

He roared again, and countless tentacles suddenly sprouted from his body.

These tentacles reached out toward his companions, wrapping them up entirely.

As the companions were ensnared, their bodies began to shrink rapidly.

"No! Let me go! Damn it, this hurts so much!"

"Raen! What's wrong with you, you bastard?!"

"Don't lose your mind! We're not your enemies!"

"I feel like I'm dying! Stop it—argh!"

The group of spirits screamed and wailed in agony.

At this moment, the previously invisible spirits became visible to the ninjas.

"Is this... still a spirit?"

"What a terrifying presence. It's so oppressive, it feels like my soul is trembling!"

"Is this some new kind of monster? Is Jin fighting against this thing?"

"Let's help Jin! Now that the monster's appeared, we don't need to be afraid anymore!"

"Right! Watch this: Fire Release · Exploding Flame Technique!"

The ninjas exchanged words, and one of them quickly formed hand seals, releasing a fireball.

To their shock, the fireball passed right through the monster without causing harm.

However, it wasn't completely ineffective—it caught the monster's attention.

"I... I am... Ra... Ra.. en..."

The monster mumbled for a long time but couldn't articulate its name.

The whites of its eyes gradually turned black, leaving its eyeballs hollow, as if devoid of a soul.

"Consume! I will devour everything!"

The monster screamed maniacally, charging at the ninja who had just performed the jutsu.

Countless tentacles flailed wildly behind it, creating an immensely horrifying scene.

"Run! This thing can ignore our attacks!"

"Damn it! These spirits are even more terrifying!"

"Run! Aah!"

The ninjas fled in fear, scattering in all directions.

The targeted ninja, however, stood frozen in place.

It wasn't that he didn't want to run—he simply couldn't move!

Was this the end? Would he die here?

The ninja closed his eyes as though accepting his fate, his heart pounding wildly.

Just as the monster was about to bite him, Jin appeared!

Jin clasped his Zanpakutō with both hands, blocking the monster's gaping maw.

"Run! This guy's strength isn't weaker than mine—he might even be stronger!" Jin gritted his teeth as he spoke.

Originally, he thought he could annihilate these spirits easily.

But who would've thought that the second one would mutate?

Not only did it resist his attacks, but it also devoured all the spirits.

Now, its power seemed to have surpassed his own!

"Got it! Be careful!"

"We'll wait for you outside. Stay strong and kill this thing!"

The ninjas retreated, realizing they could only avoid being a burden to Jin.

The monster, seeing its attack blocked, wasted no time and directed all its tentacles toward Jin.

Jin swung his Zanpakutō repeatedly, deflecting the tentacles' attacks.

Thankfully, Jin was skilled in taijutsu and kenjutsu.

Otherwise, an ordinary person, even with power, would've died due to lack of combat experience.

"Devour, devour—I will devour you!"

The monster's cries grew louder, and the blackness in its eye sockets deepened.

Its tentacles began to harden visibly.

"Hmm? You're saying to channel chakra into it?" Jin looked at his Zanpakutō and asked aloud, sensing it was communicating with him.

"If that's the case, let's give it a try!"

. . .

Jin focused on the tentacles before him and channeled his chakra into the Zanpakutō.

Suddenly, the blade began to swell!

The next moment, a flash of white light erupted, transforming the Zanpakutō into a massive, curved blade over three meters long!

"This is..."

In that instant, Jin felt the immense change in his Zanpakutō and its newfound power.

Facing the monster, Jin's fear vanished, replaced by excitement and fervor!

"Take this!"

Jin roared, gripping the scythe-like blade with both hands and slashing forward.

Slice, slice, slice!

The previously unbreakable tentacles were severed instantly upon contact with the blade.

There was no resistance at all, leaving the monster momentarily stunned.

The next second, Jin launched a powerful kick, sending the monster flying backward.

With both hands holding the massive blade, Jin aimed for the monster's head and swung down!

At last, the monster sensed the disparity in power.

It instinctively tried to dodge but was a moment too slow.

A third of its body was sliced off, and its mask was partially shattered!

However, at this moment—.
