"It's over... Loly, we're doomed!"
Menoly looked at her companion in despair. No matter how much they twisted their bodies, they couldn't break free from Yammy's large hand. There was no hope of escape. She truly hadn't expected to die in an Adjuchas's mouth.
They had... they had promised each other, as sisters, to evolve together and become higher-level beings.
"Damn it, to be eaten by this thing!"
Clutched tightly in Yammy's hand, Loly's face also turned ashen. Having devoured countless Hollows herself, today she felt the fear of being devoured by another Hollow.
"Your spiritual particles are mine, hahaha!"
Yammy roared with laughter. A two-meter-tall, blood-red maw opened beneath his white mask, and he was about to toss the two women into his large mouth, intending to swallow them whole.
Rumble~
Just as the two women were filled with despair, a red ball of light struck Yammy's large mouth. The enormous spiritual energy detonated inside his mouth, instantly destroying a large portion of Yammy's teeth.
The enraged beast, in pain, instinctively dropped the two women in his hand.
"Eh...? Is this technique...?"
Loly's eyes widened, her pretty face filled with an expression of disbelief. Another Hollow's attack actually managed to injure this hundred-meter-tall monster. Could the opponent be a higher-level Hollow?
"That's great, Loly, are you okay?"
After escaping danger, Menoly excitedly hugged Loly.
"Who the hell dared to ambush this great lord? Come out!"
Yammy's spiritual pressure suddenly fluctuated. He haphazardly swung his large hand, attacking the ground. Dust flew everywhere, and several hundred-meter-tall trees nearby toppled over.
Loly and Menoly quickly tried to escape. However, because their bones were almost completely crushed, the two women couldn't move and were simply blown away.
Just then, a slender figure leaped down from a large tree,
landing before their eyes.
The two women stared intently, then froze. This Hollow was even smaller than them, had no mask, and no Hollow hole was visible. Could he be an ordinary human?
Strangely, Loly felt a trace of a Hollow's scent from him.
Lin Feng jumped down from the large tree, observing the three Adjuchas with curious eyes.
Lin Feng didn't immediately recognize the two females, but he did recognize the other massive male Adjuchas. That rough laugh, those numerous cylindrical feet like a centipede's – there was no mistaking it, he was Yammy, the enraged beast ranked No. 10 among the Arrancar in the original timeline.
Seeing Lin Feng suddenly appear, Yammy was greatly surprised. His Hollow spiritual pressure sensing organs had failed to detect his presence in the forest moments ago.
And what exactly was this opponent? He looked smaller than his hand, and he had no mask on his face.
A creature without a mask and a Hollow hole, and so tiny, could only be a Soul Reaper. Yet, the opponent also had the scent of a Hollow.
No... once he started thinking, his head hurt.
"Whether you're a Soul Reaper or a Hollow! I'll smash you into a pulp!"
The simple-minded enraged beast immediately swung his tens-of-meters-long steel right arm towards Lin Feng's position.
"Oh, you want to compare strength with me too?"
Lin Feng squinted, not using any techniques, simply raising his right hand casually to block.
With a loud bang, the huge palm was actually slapped back.
Yammy was caught off guard. His body, affected by the immense force, was sent flying several hundred meters away. He crawled out of the withered trees in a disheveled state, roaring in exasperation.
The two female Adjuchas had cold sweat beading on their foreheads. In their hundreds of years as Hollows, they had never seen a "human" with such immense power.
"Watch me blast you to smithereens! Cero!"
The incredibly enraged Yammy no longer considered devouring Lin Feng's soul.
From his immensely huge mouth, a vast spiritual pressure suddenly accumulated.
"Come at me with your strongest attack."
Lin Feng stood still, lazily looking at the hundred-meter beast, speaking in a contemptuous tone.
The Cero of an intermediate Hollow Adjuchas couldn't be fired instantly; they needed 1 to 2 seconds to accumulate spiritual pressure.
Such a long wind-up attack simply couldn't hit Lin Feng, whose movement speed far exceeded the speed of sound.
However, Lin Feng neither dodged nor interrupted the enraged beast that was charging up. He wanted to use Yammy to test his newly acquired Hollow power.
Loly and Menoly behind him were completely terrified by this terrifying spiritual pressure fluctuation, their faces pale. If such a terrifying Cero hit them, there wouldn't even be ashes left!
In a flash, Yammy, who had accumulated his strength, unleashed a massive red Cero from his mouth.
A smug smile appeared on his hideous face, as if victory was already in his grasp.
Having devoured thousands of Adjuchas, his full-power Cero could evaporate the desert within several hundred meters!
"Cero!"
Lin Feng raised his right hand, and a red light flashed at the tip of his index finger, instantly firing an egg-sized dark red Cero, which collided with the massive red Cero.
With a booming explosion, the two Cero collided, stirring up a huge gust of wind that blew the surrounding sand hundreds of meters into the sky.
"How is this possible! How did you block my attack!"
Yammy's jaw nearly dropped in shock; he was well aware of how powerful his full-power Cero was.
If he had been dodged while charging, he wouldn't have been so shocked, but the opponent actually used the same attack, and it was an instant Cero, to block his full-power strike!
"It's simple, there's a dimensional gap in strength between you and me!"
In less than 0.1 seconds, Lin Feng's fingertip once again condensed a dark red Cero, and before that big fellow Yammy could react, he shot it towards his chest.
In the original world, as a Hollow ranked tenth among Arrancar, Yammy's strength was not to be underestimated among the Adjuchas.
Even though he was currently in an un-Arrancarized state, his skin was incredibly tough, and ordinary Cero could not harm him at all.
However, the Cero released by Lin Feng, who had successfully evolved after being modified by the Hogyoku, was incomparable to those released by ordinary Hollows.
With a bang, the Cero casually shot by Lin Feng directly pierced through Yammy's front chest and exited from his back, leaving a bowl-sized bloodied hole in his right chest.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The attack continued, as Lin Feng's fingertips continuously fired ten dark red Cero.
These Cero were not large, but they could easily penetrate Yammy's body.
For a moment, the incredibly massive Yammy became Lin Feng's target for Cero practice.
His stomach, shoulders, and arms were all riddled with several bloody holes.
Yammy's painful wails echoed throughout the deep Forest of the Gran Hollows.
Seeing the enraged beast mercilessly tormented by Lin Feng, Menoly felt an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.
Upon witnessing Lin Feng's power, Loly clenched her teeth, deeply anxious about her own helplessness.
After becoming proficient in releasing Cero, Lin Feng decided to end Yammy's life.
His finger once again condensed a Cero, but this time it was black, with an astonishingly high spiritual pressure density, almost ten times that of the dark red Cero!
The firing speed of the black Cero was several times the speed of sound, and the giant beast, covered in wounds, had no time to dodge before being engulfed in the black reishi explosion.
Such a violent force instantly shattered Yammy's massive body.
The surrounding trees and sand within a hundred meters were also pulverized into dust.
The terrifying reishi explosion made countless Hollows in the Forest of the Gran Hollows tremble.
The two women nearby never imagined that this human, who they could not resist, could so easily obliterate Yammy.
At this moment, the terrifying human turned around and walked over with a slight smile, immediately putting the two women on alert.
After all, this was the Forest of the Gran Hollows, and having witnessed countless brutal killings by Hollows, how could they believe that a sudden, unfamiliar stranger would be so kind as to save them?
Any Hollow with such a naive idea would probably have been eaten by their own kind long ago.
"How about it, I'm very strong, aren't I? As long as both of you pledge allegiance to me, no one will be able to bully you again."
Lin Feng walked up to the intermediate Hollows, who were two heads taller than him, and looked up to ask.
Recruiting two intermediate Hollows primarily served the purpose of experimenting with the Hogyoku's power, and another important reason was that female Hollows were extremely rare in Hueco Mundo, practically one in ten thousand.
Among the more than one hundred Arrancar in the original world, female Arrancar were truly rare individuals, countable on one's fingers.
Menoly only felt an incomparably rich and mellow aura emanating from the human in front of her.
Being by his side, she felt her empty heart gradually filling up.
Having never encountered such a situation, she stared blankly at this peculiar human.
As their gazes met, Menoly's little heart began to pound.
"Hey, Loly, such a powerful being... why don't we... why don't we just surrender to him?"
Menoly, who was somewhat timid, whispered into her best friend's ear, her heart unable to muster any resistance after witnessing Lin Feng's terrifying power in tormenting Yammy.
"Don't be ridiculous! I'm going to become a top-tier Hollow, how could I be someone else's slave!"
Loly angrily spat out a purple poisonous needle, which Lin Feng casually flicked away with an invisible air bullet.
Loly did not give up resisting and opened her mouth to spit out several more poisonous needles.
Facing such a brave Hollow, Lin Feng could only shake his head helplessly, preparing to physically subdue them.
After all, he knew that Hueco Mundo was not a place for love and peace; Hollows only obeyed the strong, those much stronger than themselves!
A massive spiritual pressure suddenly erupted from his body, instantly pressing down on the two women.
Menoly and Loly felt as if tens of thousands of pounds of pressure had suddenly appeared on their bodies, and they were simultaneously forced to the ground.
Menoly was utterly shocked; he was too strong, his spiritual pressure was hundreds of times stronger than theirs, Adjuchas-type Hollows!
"Lord, Menoly Mallia, is willing to submit!"
As soon as Menoly's words fell, the terrifying pressure on her body suddenly vanished.
She immediately crawled to Lin Feng's feet, prostrating herself before him, indicating her surrender!
"And you, do you also want to die without a complete corpse like that giant beast?"
Lin Feng stepped over Menoly's body and walked in front of Loly.
His eyes flickered with man-eating red light, and his cold face would not tolerate rejection.
The threat of death made Loly tremble all over.
"Master... Loly Aivirrne... I surrender..."
Loly cried out in humiliation.
Suddenly bowing down to a stranger, how could her proud self bear it?
Yet, the opponent was so strong that she couldn't resist at all.
"If you dare to make another move, don't blame me for being merciless."
Lin Feng actually had little patience for Hollows whose names he couldn't even remember.
If the other party deliberately wanted to die, Lin Feng wouldn't mind granting her wish.
"Do you two want to evolve into higher-level Hollows?"
After subjugating the two female Hollows, Lin Feng couldn't wait to see their Arrancar forms.
"Of course, Master, my sister and I dream of evolving into higher-level Hollows."
Menoly tearfully recounted how they, as Adjuchas, suffered from constant hunger, and if they stopped hunting, they would regress into Gillian.
Furthermore, female Hollows like them were even more susceptible to being hunted by other Hollows; a single bite from a fellow Hollow would also guarantee regression into a Gillian.
Therefore, Menoly and Loly lived in constant fear every day.
"Then drink this drop of blood, and you will evolve, your strength will greatly increase, and defeating that big guy from before will be effortless."
Lin Feng smiled charmingly, extended his right finger, and condensed a drop of blue essence blood filled with spiritual particles.
Just looking at it, one could feel the immense power it contained.
"Thank you for the Master's bounty."
Menoly crawled over without a second thought and took Lin Feng's essence blood into her mouth, immediately feeling a surge of intense emotions flooding her empty heart.
If a soul after death cannot be guided by a Soul Reaper for a long time, it will lose the heart in its chest.
And the lost heart will become the mask on a Hollow's face.
The so-called Arrancarization is for a Hollow to find its lost self.
As the essence blood flowed into her body, Menoly's injuries vanished in the blink of an eye.
And as the essence blood circulated throughout her body, a glow emanated from her, her spiritual pressure density suddenly increased fivefold, her body rapidly shrank, and her appearance evolved towards a human form.
In less than a few seconds, the two-meter-tall giant centipede transformed into a beautiful young girl with short golden hair!
The mask symbolizing a Hollow shattered almost completely, and the Hollow hole shifted from her chest to the position of her right eye.
As an Arrancar, Menoly was naturally unclothed; her fair inner thighs and soft C-cup breasts were clearly exposed to Lin Feng.
"M-Master! How did Menoly turn into a human? And the mask, which symbolizes a Hollow, actually shattered! How can this be?!"
Loly's eyes widened. She had heard that evolving into a higher-level Hollow meant the body would become human-sized, but she had never heard of a mask shattering!
