Chapter 92 The Secret Prayer Yhwach and the Quincy Rukia
Hohenheim shook his head and said, "The way of God is the way to see God. God is the supreme God. Even if you reach the top of the hierarchy, you cannot compare to even a fraction of God's glory."
"However, the divine path does indeed grant immense power, and each path possesses different abilities."
"I am a transcendent being of the 'Generalist' path, and also a knowledge mentor. Although I am not one of the five paths directly represented by God, I am unparalleled in alchemy."
"The five paths that God represents?" Yhwach was most concerned about God, so he asked again, "Out of the twenty-two paths, does God only represent five?"
"You can think that way," Hohenheim said, not denying it, "but rather adding, 'Once you embark on this path, you will naturally make your own judgment.'"
"God is unfathomable, so everything I say is only my understanding of one aspect of God."
Yhwach frowned slightly and said nothing more, letting Hohenheim continue.
"However, I myself have not mastered all the methods, and among the methods I know, many only contain partial potion recipes."
"Although I regard you two as my disciples, I will not ask you to follow the path of a generalist like me and become an alchemist."
"What else?" This time it was Rukia who asked the question, feeling that perhaps this new power could also turn her into human form.
"I possess potion recipes from seven different sources, with the most knowledgeable among the generalists, all the way up to the Knowledge Emperor of Sequence Two."
"As for the other six potion recipes, at most they have only mastered the fourth sequence, and at the very least they have only mastered the first three sequences."
"They are respectively the voyeur, the audience, the sailor, the singer, the prayer, and the reader."
Yhwach and Lucia listened to the names of the six pathways, memorized them, and then asked, "What are the differences between these six pathways?"
"Those who seek secrets are skilled in magic, sorcery, and astrology, and their combat abilities are also quite good. They can also create various scrolls with extraordinary powers."
"The audience possesses outstanding insight and keen observation skills, and is adept at reading others' thoughts and guiding them to take certain actions."
"Sailors possess exceptional strength, outstanding talent in navigation, the ability to manipulate water and wind to a certain extent, and are skilled in singing."
"The Singer is also skilled in singing, but compared to the Sailor's water and wind, it is skilled in manipulating light and fire. Furthermore, every extraordinary being on the Singer's path is an excellent priest who can create holy water and dispel evil."
"The inspiration of the Mystic will be greatly enhanced, they will be able to hear mysterious voices, and they will be adept at manipulating the power of shadows, curses, and flesh."
"Readers will enhance their memory and comprehension abilities, become skilled in ritual magic, and are somewhat similar to esoteric practitioners. They can also use and create some mysterious spells."
Hohenheim gave the two a brief introduction to the six pathways.
Yhwach's heart stirred when he heard the name of the Mysterious One.
Skilled in manipulating shadows and the power of flesh and blood, isn't that just a Quincy?
The Quincy of this era had not yet developed the Holy Script, but the ability to manipulate "shadow and blood" was innate to them, just like their talent for manipulating spiritual particle clusters.
"I'd like to learn more about the 'Mystic' pathway," Yhwach said to Hohenheim.
Hohenheim nodded and said, "I will give you some information later, but I only have a grasp of the mid-series potion recipes for the Mystic Path, with the highest being Sequence 5. If you want to take this path, then you will have to find the subsequent potion recipes yourself."
Yhwach nodded; he still had that much confidence.
Hohenheim then looked at Lucia and asked, "And you?"
Rukia was in a dilemma. She felt that all six paths were good, but she knew one thing very well: the best path was the one that suited her best. She really didn't know which path was right for her.
The main problem is that she's not the same person she used to be; she's now a dragon!
She doesn't even understand herself!
"I...I want to transform into human form first before I think about it, is that okay?" Rukia looked at Hohenheim with her big, watery eyes.
She changed her mind. Before, she thought she might be able to use the power of this extraordinary path to turn herself into human form, but now she was thinking that the power of this divine path might give her the ability to stop Yhwach!
After all, according to Hohenheim, the upper limit of the divine path is extremely high.
Yhwach has already chosen the Secret Invoker, so she also needs to choose a reasonable path so that if Yhwach launches another war against Soul Society, she will have a chance to stop him.
"...Okay." Hohenheim didn't force Rukia to make a choice right now.
Rukia then looked at Yhwach and said, "I've made up my mind! I'm going to transform into human form!"
Yhwach chuckled lightly, then looked at Rukia with interest and said, "If you want my help, you don't even bother to say 'please'?"
!
This guy...!
Rukia's pupils dilated, and her face flushed slightly. She was to go beg the Quincy herself? What a joke!
But now that she was under someone else's roof, she had no choice but to bow her head. Rukia endured the humiliation welling up inside her, lowered her head, and said weakly, "Please, turn me into human form."
Yhwach then said, "Since you've put it that way, then I will bestow upon you the power of a Quincy and make you a Quincy."
Becoming a Quincy? No, no, no, it should be an Arrancar.
The concept of Arrancar didn't exist in this era, and dragons didn't wear masks either. She really didn't know what she would become after obtaining Quincy power.
Yhwach stretched out his hand and said, "Open your mouth."
"What do you want to do?"
Rukia immediately looked at Yhwach with a suspicious gaze.
"Do you still want to become human?" Yhwach said calmly.
"you……!"
"Listen to him," Hohenheim said calmly from the side.
Rukia reluctantly opened her mouth, and then saw Yhwach put his finger on it, from which blood dripped continuously, drop by drop, into Rukia's mouth.
As Yhwach's blood entered her body, Rukia immediately felt her body heat up, as if magma had entered her body, making her feel somewhat uncomfortable.
"It seems... nothing has changed."
Rukia endured the heat emanating from her body and said...
"Things will change in time," Hohenheim said. "You can go back to your room first, and I will send the human clothes to your room."
