"If you want to become stronger, get the power of the Shinigami."
"… The power of the Shinigami?"
Lilith heard Maples's words and showed a thoughtful look.
After coming to Soul Society for so many days, she followed Maples to observe and explore around, and she basically understood the various distribution of this world and knew that the Shinigami was a very important part of the power of this world.
Maples nodded slightly and looked at Lilith, a pale golden luster appeared in his eyes. His gaze penetrated her small body and clearly saw the power contained in her body and her soul.
"When you were born, your body was composed of the power of the Tree of God, and the power of the Tree of God itself is a balance of Yin and Yang, that is, a state of balance between matter and soul. On this basis, my Reincarnation Tenseigan gave you consciousness, and this is the original you."
"Now that I have obtained the power of evolution on the material plane, the power of the material plane is constantly in a state of evolution, which also affects you. Your body is also evolving, but this has also caused a problem, which is that the balance between the material plane and the soul plane has been broken."
Maples's voice sounded in Lilith's mind.
She chewed on Maples' words and said, "The power of the Shinigami is the transformation and enhancement of the soul level, and it can balance the material energy that is gradually becoming imbalanced again."
"Yes."
Maples smiled softly.
Lilith could even understand and say such a tongue-twister.
"In fact, I am also facing this problem."
Maples continued.
The power of evolution he obtained in the One Punch Superman world was complete on the material level, not only did it cause the transformation of his cells, but it also caused the transformation of his energy.
It was precisely because of this that the originally balanced spiritual energy seemed a little weak.
This kind of imbalance is actually not a big problem.
It is difficult to control the overly powerful body if the soul is too weak … This concept actually doesn't exist, because the soul and the body itself are connected, not two completely independent things.
Just like when Gai opened the Hachimon Tonkou Array, his physical strength and Chakra far exceeded his soul strength, but there was still no problem in controlling it.
Imbalance has no negative effect.
It didn't matter if his soul was too strong or his body was too strong.
The only problem was that when your soul was too weak, if you met an opponent who specialized in soul attacks, then your weak soul would become a considerable weakness.
Being balanced in all aspects did not necessarily mean that one would be very powerful, but at the very least, there would not be too big of a flaw, and one would be able to deal with all kinds of opponents with relative ease.
"Father, do you already know how to obtain the Death God's power?"
Lilith's voice continued to echo in Maples' mind.
When she was alone with Maples, she would still address Maples as father. However, in front of Fei Zhen, she would address Maples as elder brother and younger sister. Therefore, she would not break the rules and address him as elder brother.
"Of course."
Maples smiled and said, "If you want to accept the power of the Death God faster and better, you need to transform into the Death God's basic form, which is the form of a soul."
He and Lilith were not born in this world, so whether it is him or Lilith, there are differences between the soul and the life of this world. And how to eliminate these differences is a small problem that Maples has been studying since he came here.
"Maples -san … Do you want to stay here?"
While Maples and Lilith were communicating on the consciousness level, Fei Zhen, who was following behind Maples, whispered to him. She noticed that Maples stopped, and they were already at the edge of a street.
Maples retracted his consciousness for a short time, looked at Fei Zhen, and after thinking for a while, he smiled and said, "No, let's continue to go to a more central place."
While moving in the direction of the Soul Society, he would study how to transform the Death God. This method of traveling while practicing is naturally the best choice at the moment.
"… Okay."
Fei Zhen hugged Rukia and nodded obediently.
Wherever Feng Ye wanted to go, she would naturally follow him. Moreover, compared to the lower ranked Drifting Soul Street, she indeed wanted to go to the higher ranked Drifting Soul Street. However, before, she had the will but lacked the strength. She simply did not have the ability to cross a large region of Drifting Soul Street.
…
A month later.
Inside a small wooden house that was temporarily built.
Lilith was floating in the air in front of Maples. Her snow-like long hair spread out in the air like a blooming flower. She looked at Maples with a pair of cute amber eyes.
At this moment.
Maples reached out his hand and quickly pressed it on Lilith's chest. He gently pushed forward, and a strange power burst out of his palm.
This push didn't cause Lilith's body to shake, but a slightly illusory shadow was pushed out of Lilith's body. It looked no different from Lilith. It was Lilith's soul.
And the soul that was pushed out looked very stable. It didn't have the feeling of a 'ghost'. It looked no different from a human.
"Well, it's done."
Maples looked at this scene and nodded. He opened his arms and caught Lilith's body that fell silently from the air.
Lilith can also separate her soul from her body, but the separated soul will show white light and look similar to a ghost. It's completely different from the Shinigami who can bleed and have a substantial body made of Ryo.
This half month of research was to study how to let Lilith get the 'soul' that is made of Ryo and achieve the most basic condition to get the power of the Shinigami.
Now it seems to be successful.
"This is the state of the soul …"
After Lilith's soul was pushed out of her body, she couldn't adapt to this state for a while. She couldn't float in the air and fell to the ground. Her snow-white feet stepped on the wooden floor.
She looked at her hands and sensed her state. She tilted her head and said: "I retain some eye power, but I can't use the rest, including chakra."
"As expected."
Maples smiled softly and said: "Next, you should adapt to this state first. Your body will be with me first."
At this point, Feng Ye's mind moved, and Lilith, who was in his arms, suddenly turned into a white fluorescent light and disappeared into his body.
"Ok."
Lilith nodded.
To Feng Ye, completing the soulization and spiritualization for Lilith was just a small task. Next, it was his own turn. That was a huge task!
His strength is far more powerful than Lilith's. To separate his soul from his body and spirit transformation is many times more difficult than Lilith's. What's more troublesome is the 'evolution' power he got in the One Punch Superman world.
This power has greatly strengthened his body and energy, which means that the binding of his body on his soul has also become extremely strong. It is extremely difficult to separate his soul.
Just look at the Mutants that were born in this world because of him.
Although they all have a certain level of strength, they don't have Reiatsu. Their soul is completely suppressed in their body and merged with it. No matter what, it can't be separated.
"Next is a big project."
Maples sighed softly.
Although the next step will be very difficult, it must be done because this is the basic condition for him to obtain the power of the Spirit King. No matter what, it must be done.
…
Five years passed in a flash.
In these five years, Soul Society was in a state of peace.
The various teams that investigated Hueco Mundo and the modern world didn't find any abnormalities, so the investigation ended without any results. However, the turbulence of Soul Society's Reiatsu was still recorded.
The Gotei 13 also sent Shinigami to Drifting Soul Street to search for Maples, but because Maples can see the past and the future, no one can find him when he doesn't want to be found.
What's more, Unohana Retsu didn't cooperate and didn't give much information about Maples. She didn't even describe Maples' appearance in detail, so the investigation ended without any results.
But at the same time.
Maples' existence was also recorded.
This is the fifth district of South Drifting Soul Street. Because it's already very close to the front, the whole district's atmosphere is very peaceful. Whether it's the security or the environment, it's far superior to the lower ranked districts.
Feng Ye was sitting leisurely beside one of the wide rivers. He held a fishing rod in his left hand and was quietly fishing.
On his neck sat a little girl about two or three years old. That was Feizhen's little sister, Rukia. Because the life of a soul is longer and the growth cycle is longer, after five years of growth, she only has the appearance of a two or three year old.
"Whoosh!"
Feng Ye swung the fishing rod with his left hand and pulled a big fat fish out of the river, splashing water on the surface of the water.
"Big brother is amazing …"
Little Rukia clapped with a smile.
Although her body was smaller, her mind was growing at the same speed as a normal human. She basically had the intelligence of a five or six year old.
She originally called Maples uncle, but Maples felt that this title made him look old. After all, he was a man who had to defeat time, so he had her change it.
Rukia was very lively and cute when she was little, so Maples didn't mind taking her in as a little sister.
"Alright, let's go back."
Maples held Rukia's ankle with one hand to prevent her from falling. He stood up and put away the fishing rod, then put Rukia down.
Rukia walked to the side and tried to lift the bucket with her two small hands. She was very strong and could lift the bucket, but she was too short and needed both hands to lift it off the ground. It looked very funny.
Maples couldn't help but laugh when he saw this. He took the bucket from her hand and pulled her up from the ground. He let her sit in the crook of his arm and returned to his residence.
The place where they lived was still a temporary wooden house.
In the past five years, Maples took Fei Zhen, Lilith, and Rukia from the 75th district to the 5th district. He built a small wooden house in each district and stopped for a while.
"Mr. Maples, Rukia, welcome home."
Fei Zhen greeted him with a gentle smile.
After five years of growth, Fei Zhen also grew a little taller. She grew from a thirteen or fourteen-year-old to a fifteen or sixteen-year-old. Her body had obviously developed.
However, Lilith still didn't change much.
Fei Zhen wasn't particularly surprised about Lilith's situation because souls grew at different speeds. Some souls would still look like a child even after a few decades.
"Go make the fish."
Maples handed the bucket to Fei Zhen.
Although her body was only fifteen or sixteen years old, Fei Zhen's mental age had already reached adulthood. She already had a gentle and elegant temperament. She was also very proficient in cooking.
After giving the fish to Fei Zhen and letting Rukia follow her, Maples returned to his room and closed his eyes slightly.
His soulization was indeed quite difficult.
It was impossible to forcibly separate his soul. It was just like how he couldn't grab his own hair and lift himself up. Not to mention, his physical strength was stronger than his soul.
Lilith's soul transformation had allowed him to find a more correct path, which was to use the 'spirit droplets' as a bottle opener. As a tool, he could pry open the bottle cap bit by bit so that his soul could be separated from his body.
Because his body was too strong, this process was very long.
After five years, the binding of his body finally loosened to the point where only a few screws and nuts were left. As long as he twisted them a little bit more, they would come off.
Maples closed his eyes and gathered the spirit particles he had gathered. He continued to twist the screw that represented his soul and the nut that represented his body.
Finally.
After trying for about a few minutes, he felt that the binding was completely removed.
Maples didn't hesitate. With a thought, he took a step forward. However, it wasn't his body that moved, but his soul.
There was no sound.
His soul came out of his body. It looked no different from his body. It had a sense of substance, and it was almost completely composed of spirit particles.
"It's finally done."
Maples breathed a sigh of relief.
After completing the soulization, the next step was much simpler. That was to get a Zanpakuto and use it to hone his soul and improve his Spiritual Pressure.
When his control of spirit particles and his adaptation to Spiritual Pressure reached a high enough level, he could go to the Spirit King Palace and try to obtain the power of the Spirit King.
After adapting to his soulized body for a short while, Maples looked at his body. A golden glimmer flashed in his eyes. Then the space in front of his left eye distorted and turned into a pale golden vortex, sucking his body in and disappearing.
Although the evolution of Dojutsu was related to the energy of the body to a certain extent, it was still a way of using spirit energy. Therefore, most of the Dojutsu could be used in the soulized state. This was the same for Lilith.
The Dojutsu he used seemed similar to Kamui, but it was actually another ability. It didn't suck the body into another space. Instead, it changed the size of the space around the body, shrinking it to the size of a cell, and then hiding it in the eye.
Shrinking and enlarging the space.
This was one of the abilities of the God's Eye.
"Next, it's time to go to Soul Society. I wonder if her swordsmanship has improved in the past five years." Maples thought of Unohua Lie and smiled.
