At the same time, my wife is myself.

Never heard of it.

My second thought was, "The Great Sage is incredibly audacious to imprison a god. Luckily, I listened to the Void and imprisoned him. Otherwise, if the gods were to rule Mount Sumeru in the future, wouldn't I be punished?"

The guards present gained an even stronger belief in the void.

Seno looked down at the trembling Great Sage: "You just wait here for the Little Lucky Grass King's punishment. What you've done has not gone unnoticed."

However, they waited for a long time, but the Little Lucky Grass King still did not appear.

Because Nasita is currently entering the World Tree with Qianyuan to search for the Great Compassion Tree King.

She felt unworthy to be a deity of Mount Sumeru, so she wanted to invite the Great Tree King back, and naturally left the Great Sage and the others to be dealt with by the Great Tree King.

Nasita's own strength was not enough, so Qianyuan specially brought Thor's Heart of God according to the original plot. With the help of the power of this Heart of God, she successfully brought Qianyuan into the World Tree.

It was a colossal tree that blotted out the sky, its trunk covered with gilded runes, surrounded by rich earth vein energy, and flowing blue light patterns could be seen on its trunk.

The World Tree is not a real tree, but a collection of information and wisdom from the past and present gathered from the earth's veins. These light patterns symbolize the flow of the earth's veins and the transmission of knowledge.

Standing on a branch of the World Tree, they saw a girl who looked exactly like Nasita, her expression filled with sadness and a maturity beyond her years.

“You’ve finally come, Bouyer.”

"You are... the Great Compassion Tree King?"

Nasida felt a surge of emotion, a deep sense of warmth and familiarity.

She was no different from a child when she was born, but the great sages of all ages had high expectations for her and were very strict with her. Later, they even sealed her away.

She had always been lonely, but in front of the Great Tree King, she felt the scent of her mother for the first time.

The Great Tree King embraced her: "Child, you have suffered these past five hundred years, but there is still one thing you need to do."

Nasida's eyes welled up with tears: "Do you mean to completely erase yourself and forbidden knowledge? He told me all that."

The Great Tree King's gaze shifted to Qian Yuan: "It seems you know everything you need to know. Now, let's make our move."

"Don't panic, let's see if we can save you."

Qianyuan walked towards the Great Tree King, saying, "I specially exchanged with the Abyss Prince for the technology that can save you."

Honkai energy coalesced in his hands: "But it will hurt a bit, so you'll have to bear it."

Even more violent and destructive than the power of the abyss, Honkai energy poured out from Qianyuan's hands, drenching the Great Tree King in an attempt to cover up the power of the abyss within her.

The already fragile remnant soul suffered a heavy blow, and the Great Compassion Tree King's face turned deathly pale. However, her resilient will kept her silent, and she was even able to chat with Qian Yuan.

"This ominous power even surpasses the abyss. You must be from beyond the heavens, and you must have experienced a lot of suffering."

There is one thing to say, indeed.

Unlike other transmigrators who have cheat codes, Qian Yuan's current strength is all the result of his hard work and sweat!

Seeing Qianyuan's emotional state as he reminisced, the Great Compassion Tree King felt a pang of pity; he must have suffered a great deal.

As Honkai energy continued to erode her, the remnant soul of the Great Tree King began to disintegrate. Fortunately, as a demon god who could directly connect to the World Tree, her consciousness was extremely resilient. In addition, Chiyo used the Third Law to consolidate her soul, preventing her from collapsing.

Once the power of the abyss had covered the area sufficiently, Qianyuan took out the crystal that Kong had given him and guided the power out of it.

The power of purification enveloped the Great Tree King, quickly purifying the remaining abyssal power and severing its connection with the forbidden knowledge on the World Tree.

Qianyuan said to Naxida, "You can now delete the forbidden knowledge from the World Tree."

Naxida was very nervous. Following Qianyuan's instructions, the World Tree burst into light the next moment, and the ominous aura that had been entwining it completely disappeared. Both Naxida and the Great Tree King could feel the World Tree's jubilation.

"solved!"

Nasita was very happy. She had purified the World Tree, but the Great Tree King was still alive and had not been deleted. This was the best outcome.

However, the Great Tree King was not in good condition at the moment. Excessive decay energy left eerie purple patterns on her body and continued to erode her body.

How could a power more terrifying than the abyss be easily eliminated? Fortunately, having completed the materialization of her soul, she was now more resistant to the invasion of alien energy.

Qianyuan even felt that she had a tendency to transform into a Honkai Beast. She couldn't let her transform into a Honkai Beast. If she did, wouldn't she pollute the World Tree again when connecting to it?

He placed his hand on the Great Tree King and extracted all the Honkai energy. With three Herrscher certifications, his control over Honkai energy was extremely strong, to the point that he could leave no residue.

"Thank you."

The Great Tree King said, "If it weren't for you, I would probably be dead by now."

"No rush, let me see the World Tree first."

Qianyuan grabbed the Great Compassion Tree King and refined it instantly, using its power to connect with the World Tree.

The first person he checked was Dr. Fatui, the Executor of the Fools. This guy was hiding in Sumeru, secretly preparing to cause trouble. Qian Yuan conveniently added some minor setbacks for him, such as conflicts with high-level combatants from the other six of the seven kingdoms of Teyvat.

For example, his inhumane experiments were accidentally leaked and made known to people of conscience in various countries, and were even reported in newspapers.

Also, inform him of the location of each of his slices, and expose how his slices are selfish and will fight each other.

Qianyuan's expression turned cheerful. "Please begin your battle royale, Professor."

The Great Tree King watched Qian Yuan's actions and, although he wanted to say not to arbitrarily modify the World Tree, he kept quiet because he remembered that Qian Yuan had saved him.

Since it's just punishing bad guys, there shouldn't be any problem, right?

Afterwards, Qianyuan browsed through the technology recorded in the World Tree, but only felt a headache coming on and dizzy from looking at it, so she had no choice but to give up.

No problem, let the Great Tree King and Shadow Treasure inherit these technologies. Oh, and Nasita too.

Didn't she always feel she wasn't a competent god? Surely she'll study hard; how could the goddess of wisdom not know how to do scientific research?

With this in mind, the three left the World Tree space. The Great Tree King had grown from a little girl into a gentle and mature woman, becoming distinct from Nasita.

Nasita told the Great Sage about the Great Tree King, who sighed and said:

"I thought they would take good care of you, but it's not surprising. To humans, gods have always been high above them. They probably can't understand that gods also need to learn and grow, and they also have a period of infancy when they don't know anything."

Qianyuan was neither clear about nor interested in how the Great Tree King intended to deal with the Great Sage; he had more important matters to attend to.

New people have arrived in the Soul Space.

Chapter 82 Athena the Godslayer (4k)

"Has it broken free from mythology again and become a god who does not obey?"

When Athena opened her eyes, she saw not the world around her, but a dazzling starry sky.

She keenly sensed the difference between this place and the real world, leaning more towards the realm of the soul: "Is this the Netherworld? No, that's not it either."

She looked down at her graceful figure, fair and clean, with alluring curves.

It's beautiful, but she's not wearing anything.

“This situation will not occur in the Netherworld.”

Just as she was about to use her divine power to conjure clothes, the clothes appeared on her body on their own as soon as she had the thought.

"This space seems to have some connection with me."

Athena closed her eyes and sensed it, discovering that her connection with mythology had become weak.

"Strange, it seems like I can go back anytime, but—"

She opened her eyes and saw the man standing in front of her, a man who exuded an indescribable attraction and a sense of closeness.

"It is not an alluring power; he does not appear to be a god or a god-slayer, yet he possesses a very powerful hidden strength within him."

Following her intuition, Athena stepped forward and placed her hand on Qianyuan.

Qian Yuan was slightly surprised to see this new member walking towards him. This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. Could it be that this newcomer had figured out the mechanism of the soul space so quickly?

He carefully examined the bride's appearance. She wore a flower wreath, and her silver hair, like a stream of moonlight, cascaded down to her waist. The ends of her hair shimmered with a cold, eerie blue light in the twilight. Her pure white Greek-style belted robe outlined her alluring figure, slightly revealing her fair and rounded shoulders.

She's very beautiful, with a goddess-like aura, but unfortunately I can't recognize her at all.

When their bodies made contact, along with the simultaneous surge of power and memories, Qianyuan's expression became quite interesting:

"Godslayer? Athena! No wonder I didn't recognize her. If it were a smaller version, I would have a sense of déjà vu."

Whether in the novel or the anime, Athena mostly appears as a little girl, wearing a cat-eared hood, and you might not even recognize her when she grows up.

Athena's eyes were subtle: "It's precisely at this time when a mysterious witch like me is needed, yet your first reaction upon syncing your memories is to wonder if a virgin goddess can be an Omega. I suppose that's just how 'me' am I?"

Qianyuan felt a little ashamed: "I was just a little curious. I didn't say it out loud, nor did I ask you."

Athena smiled and said, "I didn't ask, because you already knew without me having to."

The Athena of the Godslayer world is different from the Athena of other worlds. She is also the offspring of Medusa and Tiamat, and is an ancient earth mother goddess. The identity of Athena is not very meaningful to her, but rather a stain on her. She is an earth mother goddess symbolizing dragons and serpents, and was demoted after being defeated by the Steel Hero God. She herself is more inclined to the identity of an ancient and sublime earth mother goddess.

"But to put it bluntly, it's all role-playing, only this role-playing has power."

Athena said so.

In the Godslayer universe, the gods are essentially spirits born from nature, constantly wandering the earth.

Humans feared the unpredictable power of the heavens, such as wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, as well as death and disease. After seeing the appearance of elves, they turned to them for faith and wove myths.

The elves were bound by mythology, which is why they transformed into various gods and truly gained the powers of mythology.

Therefore, as humans migrated and myths changed, the gods in the original myths also changed constantly. It is quite normal for the same god to have several identities and appear in different myths.

When gods deviate from the duties bestowed upon them by mythology and walk on the earth in a more primitive manner, they are disobedient gods.

Disobedient gods bring all sorts of disasters: the water god grinds the earth, the fire god burns everything, and the underworld god spreads plagues, shrouding the earth in darkness and death.

"When a disobedient god returns to mythology, he does not retain the memory of his previous descent when he descends again, somewhat like the Heroic Spirits of the Throne of Heroes."

Athena said, "But after synchronization, all the forgotten memories came back to me, which was amazing."

She was very interested in this: "I don't know if it's because the soul achieves the third law, or because the soul space is too special. It seems that even if I am killed in the future and return to mythology, I will still retain my memories. In the world of Godslayer, I will be practically immortal."

"immortal?"

Qian Yuan's eyes lit up. "I have a bold idea. A personal power would be perfect for you."

"So you're a great hero, huh? You want me to self-destruct?"

Even without physical contact, Athena could immediately guess Qianyuan's thoughts: "If one can return to mythology without any restrictions and then immediately break away from it, then this power is indeed very useful."

Qianyuan also understood Athena's concerns: "It's just that we don't know if it's really without any cost. And with our strength, we don't need to do this at all. If there are enemies we can't deal with, we can either gang up on them or just run away. There's no need to go to the point of self-destruction."

Athena gently hooked Qianyuan's hand: "I just don't know if you can still be considered human now, and whether you can trigger the secret ritual of god-slaying after killing the disobedient god and become a god-slayer."

The world of Godslayer is a world where it's easy to rise to the top in one step. Even an ordinary person with no strength can become a demon king on earth and wield power equal to that of a god if they accumulate three or four miracles and kill a god.

"Although there is no precedent for that, I should not be judged as a disobedient god."

Qianyuan took this into consideration, so she did not synchronize Athena's power. In fact, Athena's power could be used even if it was not synchronized, because the disobedient gods of this world could possess humans and use their bodies to use their power.

Many god-slayers succeed in killing gods because a disobedient god possesses them and fights with other disobedient gods. They take advantage of this opportunity to pick off severely wounded gods and successfully kill them, thus becoming god-slayers.

"We'll find out once we try. We don't know how far the plot has progressed or whether it has even started yet."

"It probably hasn't started yet."

Chiyuki carefully recalled Athena's memories, "You did not lose the power of the [Serpent] after becoming a disobedient god and manifested in the form of a loli."

"You really like lolis that much?"

As he wished, Athena transformed into a white-haired loli wearing a cat-ear hood. Qianyuan shook her head: "I hope you become a loli, but not at this time, but when we're doing something important."

She transformed back into a graceful goddess, looking down at Qian Yuan with disdain: "You really only have yourself on your mind."

Holding Athena's hand, he descended into the world of the disobedient gods. A whirlwind swept behind him, and magical power surged forth like a tidal wave. Darkness surged in like a tide, condensing into Athena's graceful figure.

"It has indeed come."

Athena stood beside Qianyuan, saying, "Even if I return to mythology in the future, I can still perform some simple operations through the soul space to directly break free from the shackles of mythology."

She observed her surroundings. It was an island, a bustling island, teeming with people, many dressed differently, mostly tourists from various places.

"It's a tourist city."

Qianyuan and Athena stood in the sky, looking around. The sudden change in the celestial phenomena had attracted the attention of many tourists, but they had cast a spell on themselves so that ordinary people would automatically ignore them.

"There is still a lot of magic over there, and it smells of the sun and storms."

Athena looked at the edge of the island. "No matter how hard the humans in this world cultivate, they can never reach the realm of gods and god-slayers. That is a power that humans cannot possess. Perhaps there are rebellious gods descending here."

"It's amazing that there are gods to kill right after we arrived."

"The sun, the storm, and the island in front of us."

Qianyuan had a sense of déjà vu. He and Athena blended into the crowd, and by asking the people around them, they immediately realized where they were.

Sardinia, Italy.
