Chapter 690 Dissipation(1/2)
King Daci Shu narrated the history to everyone in an extremely gentle tone. Although there were many more details, in general it was very different from what Nasida said.
"Well, this is what happened before that disaster. In order to find the power to restore the World Tree and resist the forbidden knowledge, I coordinated the dreams of all Sumeru people and created the current void system. In other words, it was me
I deprived them of their dreams with my own hands, causing them to lose their ability to dream."
Speaking of this matter, King Daci Shu's face suddenly showed a bit of emotion and melancholy.
Perhaps recalling the past has inevitably made this now-famous god a little more sentimental.
But what she said next was something Nacida didn't know.
"With the power of the void, I did suppress the forbidden knowledge's infringement on the World Tree for a time, but all this was changed in the war five hundred years ago."
"Five hundred years ago... it was Canrea?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ying, who had been listening on the side, exclaimed in surprise.
In this regard, Bai Qiyun maintained his due silence.
As far as he knew, there had indeed been riots in Canria in his world.
But perhaps because of the God of Steel, the two worlds have taken two different paths.
So what exactly happened still depends on what the Great Ci Tree King said.
"Yes."
For Ying's sudden interruption, Daci Shuwang did not show any impatience. On the contrary, she patiently explained everything that had happened to everyone, as if she wanted to tell everyone everything she knew.
Recalling the old events at that time, Daci Shuwang's slightly immature face was filled with a hint of reminiscence.
"Five hundred years ago, all the gods received instructions to go to Kanria, but I didn't. I had to stay and protect the World Tree."
"Eh? Did the demonic tide reach here at that time?"
Even as someone who had experienced the Rice Wife and the Great Abyss of Strata, Paimon couldn't help but open his mouth wide when he heard this statement.
After all, they have never seen the real World Tree yet, and even what is before them at this moment is just the phantom in the dream of the Great Merciful Tree King.
A force of this level would be invaded by the demonic tide. How powerful the demonic tide must have been at that time.
"Indeed, at that time I was facing an endless tide of demons. Even with the support of the World Tree, I was still unable to handle it in the end."
King Daci Shu admitted his failure frankly.
After all, after helping the Red King purify the world's forbidden knowledge, most of her original power had been lost.
He fell from the top Demon God to the High Demon God in one fell swoop. Only with the blessing of the Seven Gods can he return to the top level.
But that kind of power was not stable, so in the great battle five hundred years ago, she exhausted her power and her rank kept falling.
"But fortunately, I still withstood the erosion of the demonic tide. However, after that, I could no longer suppress the remaining forbidden knowledge and could only choose a more drastic method. And you, Nasida, were born at that time
of."
Facing the gaze of the Great Ci Tree King, Nasida felt a rare feeling of panic.
She squeezed her little hands and asked with a hint of nervousness in her voice.
"My birth, doesn't that mean that you were then..."
Although the words were not finished, everyone understood the meaning.
As we all know, the replacement of gods always adheres to an absolute principle, that is, only after the previous god steps down can the successor take the stage.
In other words, at the moment Nasida was born, King Daci Shu died.
"Oh, there is no need to be so sad. That was the choice I made. Now it seems that my original choice was not wrong. Today, Xumi is on the right track, and the World Tree has returned to its original appearance. And you are exactly what I want
The best witness to all this.”
Having said this, the smile on King Daci Tree's face became sweeter and sweeter.
But all they got in exchange was silence from everyone.
"I?"
Hearing this, Nasida was a little confused.
King Daci Shu nodded and explained.
"Yes, in order to undo the erosion of the World Tree by forbidden knowledge, I took away many of the eroded parts while dissipating all my power. But in the end, I discovered that I myself was also affected by that inexplicable power.
It was eroded, so if I want to restore the World Tree to its original state, I must disappear from this world, so I picked off the purest branches on the World Tree and turned it into a new god to replace my existence.
"
The facts are very clear. Both the birth of Nasida and the death of King Daci Shu were actually to solve the hidden dangers left by the Red King thousands of years ago.
And this hidden danger has not been completely eliminated to this day, and the demon scale disease and the dead realm are still infesting the creatures of Sumeru.
"In other words, you are me."
The words of the Great Ci Tree King shocked Nasida.
She lowered her head and looked at her young hands, unable to believe that she was actually a part of the god she had longed for.
"I..."
The voice of today's God of Wisdom is full of wavering.
Seeing this, King Daci Shu shook his head gently.
"Well, now that Xumi is on the right track, it's time to deal with the remnants of the old history."
She raised her arm, and a faint divine light emitted from her hand.
The World Tree behind him also hung down its branches, and the pink crown of the tree shone with crystal blue light, reflecting the emerald green light in the god's hand.
"you want..."
Seeing the increasingly thin presence of the Great Ci Tree King in front of her, the panic in Nasida's heart became stronger and stronger.
King Daci Tree gently stroked the face that was the same as his own, with a smile on his lips.
"Of course it is to solve the problem. The only person who has actually come into contact with the forbidden knowledge in this world is the memory left by me. As long as it is erased from the World Tree, the influence of the forbidden knowledge can be stopped."
"But wouldn't that just make people forget you?"
This time, the emotions brewing in Nasida's heart finally exploded.
As outsiders, Ying and Bai Qiyun would never know how many times this little god had thought of this god who haunted her in her dreams during these five hundred years.
That's right, erasing existence from the World Tree means that it has never come to this world.
What a sad thing.
But for the sake of Xumi, King Daci Shu was still so decisive.
"But this is the only way. If you want to solve the problem of World Tree, you must eliminate me from it. There is no need to feel sorry for me, Buyer... No, Nasida, please remember that you are my incarnation,
Use your eyes to witness the prosperity and beauty of this country, and you are witnessing it for me."
After saying that, the Great Ci Tree King seemed to feel the arrival of destiny, and directly hugged Nasida tightly into his arms, feeling the warmth of each other's chests.
Gradually, the body of the Daci Tree King spread out light like fireflies in all directions, turning into a sea of stars and floating outward, like a wanderer leaving his hometown.
Nacida knew that it was the power and memory of the Great Ci Tree King.
She stretched out her hands toward the void beside her, wanting to keep them.
But the breeze was still unkind and took them far away.
"I am a person who makes propositions, and I am also a person who seeks solutions."
The voice of the gods is like a clear spring, washing away all worries.
"Saving the world with the dreams of the world was once my answer. Now, you have also found your own answer."
Words like last words kept floating in the air.
"I will return all dreams to the world."
Wherever the vitality is covered, there is the tolerance and kindness of the Great Merciful Tree King.
"Goodbye, people of Sumeru. May you have sweet dreams tonight."
In the end, her voice disappeared into the distance along with the breeze and her figure.
"No..."
Nacida's arms suddenly became empty, and tears filled her cheeks. She stretched out her hands toward the sky, but nothing was left.
As bystanders, Bai Qiyun and Ying raised their heads one after another, paying attention to the Great Ci Tree King as he bid his final journey.
The two people, who were not people of Sumeru, or even residents of Teyvat in this world, could never empathize with Nasida, but what King Daci Shu did was obvious to all.
They paid the highest respect to this self-sacrificing god.
What a noble and proud god.
Bai Qiyun sighed subconsciously in his heart.
But just where he didn't notice, before the light spots formed by the Daci Tree King were completely dispersed, part of them were absorbed by the 'flying star' he held in his hand.
