Death God: A High-Dimensional Overlord, Starting by Devouring the Soul King

Chapter 91 Quincy Transformation; The Path to Godhood

"you?"

Rukia looked at Yhwach suspiciously and said, "You can do it?"

Yhwach did not see the Arrancar soldiers created by Yhwach in his previous life.

Only Ichigo Kurosaki saw these soldiers before he stormed into Hueco Mundo and then entered the Soul Society.

In the first battle at Soul Society, Rukia herself was seriously injured and fell into a coma, and was subsequently transported to the Soul King's Palace.

After she woke up in the Spirit King Palace, she underwent various trainings, and then the Quincy attacked again, so she and Renji hurriedly went down.

In other words, Rukia didn't have much time to communicate with Ichigo from beginning to end, let alone systematically understand the ins and outs of the war.

Yhwach's main reason was his previous experience with the Arrancar transformation of Yuri's Array. He felt that since he could transform Hollows into Arrancar, he should also be able to transform Dragons into Arrancar.

So he replied, "How will you know if you don't try?"

Rukia became cautious, looking at Yhwach with even greater suspicion: "Why are you helping me?"

Yhwach replied naturally, "You are the teacher's pet, we are companions, do I need a reason to help you? Or rather, isn't this reason enough?"

Who are your companions?

Rukia thought to herself, "I am a Shinigami, and there is no way I could be an ally of the Quincy leader who slaughters Shinigami."

But if Yhwach could really turn her into a human, Rukia would actually be tempted.

The dragon form is too troublesome; there are many things I can't do. Even if I find the Grim Reaper, the Grim Reaper will not believe me at all once he sees that I am a dragon, and may even regard me as an enemy.

Only by transforming into human form can she have greater freedom.

There's another important point: in her dragon form, she was always treated like a pet by Hohenheim, which made her very uncomfortable.

Seeing that Rukia seemed to be thinking, Yhwach asked a question: "If I remember correctly, you dragons should have the ability to 'cover your faces,' why don't you do that?"

Memories of the masked dragon also appeared in Rukia's mind; rather than an ability, it was more like a type of dragon.

The masked dragon can attach itself to a human body and use that human body to carry out activities in the mortal world.

Rukia shook her head: "That's disgusting."

Her moral compass prevented her from doing such an evil thing.

A flicker of surprise crossed Yhwach's eyes, and he said softly, "You are indeed very special."

Rukia felt a chill run down her spine under his gaze and instinctively took a step back, asking, "What do you mean?"

"Dragons, especially dark dragons, could never possess a consciousness like yours."

Yhwach said softly, "No wonder the teacher brought you back."

Is that impossible?

I am not a dragon at all, much less a dark dragon!

Moreover, Hohenheim only met him once before bringing him here. How could he possibly know anything special about him from that one meeting?

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. How can you turn me into human form?"

"Yhwach is a Quincy with the ability to 'divide'."

At that moment, Hohenheim's voice reached their ears. Hohenheim had apparently finished speaking with Charlie and walked over to them.

He said, "He will give you the power of the Quincy, so that you can undergo a qualitative change in your soul using the power of the Quincy."

"A Quincy?" Rukia turned her head and looked at Hohenheim in surprise. "Can I become a Quincy too?"

"This should be the simplest method," Hohenheim nodded and said.

"Although I am an alchemist, I am not skilled in human transmutation."

"That falls under the category of classical alchemy. I haven't explored that area much in the past. If I want to complete your human transmutation, it might take me more than a hundred years."

"One hundred years!" Rukia fell silent upon hearing this.

A hundred years is a long time, even for the Grim Reaper.

After all, she only lived for a little over 150 years, and this hundred years was two-thirds of her life.

If he were looking for Yhwach, he could transform himself into human form right now, but the price would be that he would become a Quincy.

To be honest, both of these points were somewhat difficult for her to accept.

One option is to wait a hundred years, the other is to become a Quincy...

"Take your time to think about that. Today I'm going to formally explain the path to transcendence to you."

!

Rukia, who was struggling with her decision, and Yhwach, who was waiting for Rukia's reply, suddenly looked up.

Over the years, they had heard Hohenheim explain a great deal of extraordinary knowledge, but most of it was alchemy. Now, were they finally about to get to the part they were most interested in?

Even Rukia was very interested, after all, this was an extraordinary power that she had never seen before.

"Let's go back to the workshop." Hohenheim led the two back to the workshop.

Holmonx was not present, as it served Charlemagne most of the time.

It should be noted that the territory of the Frankish Kingdom in this world is much larger than the original one.

Firstly, Charlemagne had regained his youth and was more energetic; secondly, it was because of the presence of Holmes, who advised Charlemagne and played a significant role not only in politics but also in war.

The Frankish Kingdom now extends from the Iberian Peninsula in the west to Bohemia in the east, and even aspires to conquer the West Slavs.

If he had remained in power, it would have been possible for him to advance further east, either continuing his advance toward Slavic territory or directly clashing with the Byzantine Empire.

He also considered taking over Britain, which was across the sea, but abandoned the idea on Holmonx's advice.

Holmonx's reason was that a terrible "red dragon" had recently appeared in Britain.

In short, with the assistance of Holmonx, Charlemagne had surpassed his historical peak and would formally begin religious reforms in these final years.

Therefore, there were only the three of them in this alchemy workshop.

Hohenheim, Yhwach and Lucia.

"As far as I know, there are twenty-two extraordinary paths, which are also known as the 'Twenty-Two Paths of the Tree of Life in Kabbalah,' or simply the 'Kabbalah Paths,' or the 'Paths of God.'"

Hohenheim first introduced the divine path to the two of them.

"The path to godhood?" Yhwach immediately asked. "Is it the path to godhood?"

If he said this outside, it would be considered blasphemy, since God is self-existent and eternal, and there is only one God.
