The journey through the heavens begins with saving the Great Kindness Tree King
Chapter 3 World Tree, Great Kindness Tree King and Thunder God
Su Qiankun looked around for a long time but didn't see even a shadow. Finally, he looked down and saw a little white-haired loli with green light looking at him.
Huh? She is...
The more I look at this loli, the more familiar she looks. Is she Nashida?
It doesn’t seem so. She should be the Great Compassionate Tree King.
"This is not the place you should come."
As the incarnation of the World Tree, the impact of the Kanreya War on Teyvat also affected the World Tree. The other six gods were summoned to Kanreya to reunite with Tenli, but she had a more important task, which was to stay in Sumeru to protect the World Tree.
Now there are outsiders, but the bad thing is that he is not good at fighting, and his own strength has been almost exhausted due to overdrawing when clearing the pollution on the world tree.
So she didn't have much strength left, and she didn't want to waste time on this person because there were more important things to do right now.
But if I leave him alone, what if this person has ulterior motives towards the World Tree? If his strength is too strong, it is still unknown whether I can protect the World Tree.
Suddenly, the Great Compassionate Tree King held his forehead, frowned, and looked very painful.
Everything in front of me gradually became dark, my figure became shaky, and finally I fell down.
Su Qiankun shook his head, sat down with his back against the World Tree, and put her on his lap. He tried to communicate with the system: "Tongzi, it is really unfortunate for the Grass God to encounter such a thing. Is there any way to save her life?"
The system said casually, "Sprinkle some water, but the host needs to complete a task in exchange."
"However, judging from the current actual situation, host, you can owe it first and pay it back later."
Su Qiankun was delighted. Is there such a good thing?
"In that case, let's also include Raiden Shin."
System: "Okay, the host's senses are good. Lei Dianzhen has just arrived in Kanreya at this time. If you want to save her, you have to add a mission."
"Okay! Let's add it!"
The transaction between one person and one system ended here. After waiting for the Great Compassion Tree King to regain consciousness, Su Qiankun asked, "Are you feeling better?"
The Great Compassionate Tree King nodded slightly, then left Su Qiankun's legs and sat down leaning against the World Tree like him.
She was still a little confused. If Su Qiankun wanted to destroy the World Tree, he could take advantage of the situation.
But he didn't do so, which made the Great Compassionate Tree King a little difficult to understand.
"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Su Qiankun, a traveler from another world. To be honest, I don't know how I suddenly came here.
I have been traveling in this world for two and a half years and have seen a lot. This world is called Teyvat. There are currently seven elements and countries: wind, rock, thunder, grass, water, fire, and ice. The corresponding countries are Mondstadt, Liyue, Inazuma, Xumi, Fontainebleau, Natta, and Solstice.
Every country has its own ruling party, and you are the contemporary grass god of Mount Xumi, the Great Compassionate Tree King.
I learned from a certain channel that Xumi is in charge of this world tree, and it is very important to the entire Teyvat. Now it is polluted by something called forbidden knowledge. When its pollution reaches a certain level, the entire Teyvat will fall apart or even be destroyed.
The pollution of forbidden knowledge existed thousands of years ago. It is said that it was caused by a man named Red King who ruled the Xumi Desert area. He studied things that he shouldn't have studied in order to develop, but he didn't know that it brought disaster to Xumi and the World Tree. If you hadn't stepped forward, the consequences would be disastrous. "
The Great Compassion Tree King believed him and nodded, "Well, I used up all my strength to cooperate with the Scarlet King and ended up like this. In fact, I couldn't expel the forbidden knowledge by myself, so after his sacrifice, I created a crystal that combined human wisdom and named it [Void]."
Su Qiankun folded his hands and said, "That thing is indeed quite interesting."
The Great Compassionate Tree King continued: "For thousands of years, I have believed that dreams are the product of human beings. Now that the Kanreya War has broken out, forbidden knowledge has made a comeback. Although it is a bit selfish to do so, I still used the void to borrow the dreams of human beings. I integrated the wisdom of people and contributed all my strength again, and finally eradicated almost all the forbidden knowledge of the World Tree."
Su Qiankun shook his head: "Almost? That means it's not that simple."
The Great Compassionate Tree King nodded and said, "Yes, I just realized from that headache that my consciousness is connected to the World Tree. The wisdom and knowledge it brings me are accompanied by the pollution of forbidden knowledge, so from the beginning, I have been polluted by forbidden knowledge."
"So as long as I am alive, the people of Xumi will never have peace."
Su Qiankun shook his head and said: "No, after you die, the World Tree will record everything about you and your knowledge, along with forbidden knowledge. If you want to save the World Tree, unless..."
The Great Compassionate Tree King took over the conversation: "There is only one way, and that is to make the world completely forget me.
Erase me from the World Tree, as if I had never existed in this world.
And I can never eliminate myself, which is a paradox.”
She broke off the purest branch from the World Tree, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes: "Perhaps it can become my reincarnation. It will lead Xumi to a further journey."
"Your people love you very much, and you also love your people deeply. Isn't your departure a kind of cruelty to them?" Su Qiankun said.
Upon hearing this, the Great Compassion Tree King's face was filled with solemnity, but he soon said with relief: "But this is the real way to save the World Tree. There is no other way."
"I am the incarnation of the World Tree. I live under the World Tree and read the world. I read it in the rain and in the soil. Then I turned into a white bird and finally caught the crucial leaf in my mouth."
I am the only person in the world who can dream. In my dream, everyone falls asleep at night, and wonderful ideas emerge in people’s minds, some of which float to the sky, connecting all things into a dazzling network. ”
"In the three thousand worlds, there are small worlds, all of which are boiling here."
“I gradually realized that these indescribable and ever-changing things are the most profound things in the world.”
"Only they can completely drive away the madness, and only dreams can completely awaken consciousness from the deepest darkness."
"I am the one who proposes the question, and I am also the one who seeks the solution. Saving the world with the dreams of the world is my answer."
Looking up at the World Tree, the woman said with reluctance: "Farewell, people of Xumi!"
Su Qiankun was speechless. This woman was good in every way except that she was stubborn and would sacrifice herself at any time when faced with desperate situations.
"Maybe I have a way to help you." Su Qiankun asked tentatively.
The Great Compassion Tree King shook his head and said, "Even I am helpless against forbidden knowledge, let alone you, a traveler from another world, what can you do?"
Su Qiankun snapped his fingers: "How about we make a bet? If I help you purify the forbidden knowledge in your memory, you have to fulfill a promise for me."
"What promise? As long as it's within my ability."
The Great Compassion Tree King saw confidence in Su Qiankun's eyes. It was absolute confidence, and he couldn't help but be infected by his emotions.
"Be my dependent!"
The Great Compassion Tree King subconsciously refused: "What? I am a god after all, how can I do someone else's..."
Su Qiankun stopped her and said, "Don't make a decision so quickly. I'm doing this to help you. If you think about it carefully, this request is actually nothing. Think about it carefully!"
"But if I fail, I ask you to mention it at will."
"My request is that after my reincarnation is born, many things will be a blank slate for her. I'll trouble you to take good care of her."
Su Qiankun asked uncertainly: "So simple?"
"Yes." The Great Compassionate Tree King nodded.
"Then it is happily decided! Sorry for the offense!"
Su Qiankun placed his hand on the little head of the Great Compassion Tree King and touched the World Tree with one hand.
The latter's face turned red. This was the first time she was touched on the head by a strange man, but why didn't she feel the slightest bit of disgust?
Su Qiankun naturally did not notice the expression on her face. He closed his eyes and emitted light with him as the center, which soon enveloped the entire space.
The Great Compassionate Tree King did not feel the light was dazzling. Instead, she felt that it was like a dying tree being nourished by the rain, and after the rain it was illuminated by the soft, warm sunlight. In this way, the tree would quickly regain its vitality.
This kind of comfortable feeling has not appeared for a long time.
"Okay." Su Qiankun put down his hand.
The Great Compassion Tree King also opened his eyes and asked, "Is it over?"
"Try to feel any changes in yourself and the World Tree?"
She felt her strength restored, and tried to transform herself back to her original girl form. Her eyes, full of wisdom, were filled with shock, and her voice was filled with excitement: "The forbidden knowledge that contaminated me and the World Tree has... disappeared! My strength has also been restored! Great!
Can you tell me how you did it and why you helped me?"
Su Qiankun thought about it and realized that he actually didn't know what he wanted from her.
Want her body? Not impossible.
After thinking for a while, he said: "This matter is very simple for me. As for why I want to help you, there are many reasons. Do you need to listen to them one by one? I can't finish telling you in three days and three nights."
As the god of wisdom, the Great Compassionate Tree King still doesn't seem to want to tell him. And that's right. After all, the two have just met and are not friends yet. It is normal for Su Qiankun to be reserved.
But she wouldn't ask. Everyone has secrets, and this is not something she can interfere with.
“It’s okay if I don’t say it, thank you, I will always remember your help.
Then he said seriously: "Although the crisis of the World Tree has been resolved, we can't be happy too soon."
"There are still many Death Domain Tumors in Xumi. They appear along with forbidden knowledge, but they will not disappear with its disappearance."
"But now my strength has returned. Compared to my peak period, I am now stronger, so it should be no problem for me to eliminate them by myself."
"So leave the rest to me. If it's not too much trouble, can you come with me? Just stand by and watch me quietly.
I have encountered a difficult situation, please show some mercy, I will pay the corresponding reward..."
Su Qiankun nodded. His goal had been achieved, so he stopped interfering and followed the Great Compassion Tree King to travel around the country.
After a while, the Great Compassionate Tree King's face looked a little tired, but she was very happy because the problem that had troubled her for thousands of years was completely solved today.
As for why it took so long, it was because Sumeru was really big, and the increase in the power of the Great Compassionate Tree King was actually still limited. In fact, it could only clear one Death Domain Tumor at a time, and each clearance consumed almost all of its strength.
But for the Great Compassionate Tree King, it is already pretty good, and he recovers quickly. He only needs to rest for a few days to be full of energy again.
During this period of mutual support, the relationship between the two people quietly changed and they became closer and closer.
The original plot is that when the Great Mercy Tree King sacrificed himself, although the Death Tumor was not completely eliminated, most of the toxicity was eliminated, so that it was easier for later travelers to eliminate the Death Tumor.
The two returned to the World Tree.
"I agree to your request."
Su Qiankun created a contract out of thin air, handed her a pen and paper and said, "Sign it if there is no problem."
The Great Compassionate Tree King signed his name without hesitation, the contract disappeared, and the two felt that they had established some kind of inseparable connection with each other.
