Alhaitham looked at the god from afar, and immediately understood why the sages who had brought back the little auspicious grass king directly recognized her as the newborn god.

The power of the same origin, the same appearance.

There must be an extraordinary relationship between her and the Great Mercy Tree King.

Is it reincarnation?

Or something else?

Nahida stepped forward step by step.

"Exactly like me...... Are you the King of the Great Tree of Mercy? ”

It was also the first time she had met the Great Mercy Tree King, and before that, she had never thought that she was exactly the same as the Great Mercy Tree King.

There's so much information in that.

"Did that surprise you?"

Compared to Nahida's voice, the voice of the Great Mercy Tree King was much more mature.

This may also be the most direct way to distinguish between the two.

"This is the appearance of the world tree and the earth of the past, but after all, it is only a space of consciousness. Since you and I are of the same essence, we also appear exactly the same. ”

"Why is it essentially the same?"

"Because you are me, and I am you."

Good guys, that's too much information!

After some explanations from the Great Tree King, several people also understood why they were essentially the same.

They were all born from the World Tree, the Great Mercy Tree King is the embodiment of the World Tree, and Nahida is the purest branch of the World Tree.

Even if the tree dies, the detached branches will retake root and grow into new trees.

Jiang Bai was surprised that the Great Mercy Tree King was actually the incarnation of the World Tree himself.

He had always thought that the Connecting World Tree was a power of the Grass God, and most of this power came from the Heart of God.

It turned out to be nothing like that.

The Great Mercy Tree King = World Tree.

The Heart of God is just the icing on the cake for the Great Mercy King.

But it's not the same for the little auspicious grass king.

She was just a branch that had not yet grown, just a small tree, weak in strength, and had to rely on the power of the Heart of God to get here.

When she grows to a certain point, perhaps the heart of God will be useless to her.

Being recognized by the King of the Great Tree of Compassion was a very happy thing for Nahida.

The target she once longed for and admired was actually another self with a different fate, which gave her great confidence.

"Can you tell me why you created my thing? And what happened when you died? ”

The existing Great Mercy Tree King is just a wipeful consciousness that has been dead for many years, and it has been preserved here, waiting for the arrival of new seedlings.

At the mention of this, everyone's attention was focused.

Everyone present was curious about the answer.

What's going on? Why is the World Tree so polluted?

What happened to the Great Ci Tree King back then slowly fell down, and these Jiang Bai had asked Zhongli curiously, but the answers he had never received came out of the mouth of the Great Tree King.

"On the day of the cataclysm, even the sky turned blood-red......

"The Seven Gods were summoned to the realm of Kanria, but I have an even more important mission, which is to protect the World Tree.

"Disasters come with the contamination of forbidden knowledge. At about the same moment, my consciousness was connected to the World Tree, and I noticed something unusual.

"The mental anguish began to torment me, and by the time I rushed under the World Tree, it was already being eroded by forbidden knowledge......"

Jiang Bai found that what the Great Mercy Tree King had told was a little different from the information he had previously obtained from the knowledge of the gods.

Didn't the forbidden knowledge originate from the Red King?

Or did the catastrophe erupt along with the forbidden knowledge?

Forbidden knowledge that has been temporarily controlled has been resonated by disaster? Directly erupted again, hitting the World Tree hard.

Forbidden knowledge is a "virus" from outside the world, so is the source of this disaster also from forces outside the world?

Two viruses with similar properties are added to the virus, directly destroying the "anti-virus system" of the World Tree.

Jiang Bai felt that this explanation was quite reasonable.

The narration of the Great Cishu King continued, which also proved the correctness of Jiang Bai's conjecture.

“…… If it weren't for the fact that I worked with the Red King to deal with the pollution of forbidden knowledge thousands of years ago, I am afraid that I would have been at a loss at that time. ”

"What exactly is forbidden knowledge?"

"Knowledge that does not belong to this world, and it is also a truth that cannot be understood. He came down from the bottom of the abyss, and even I couldn't understand it. The world is rejecting it, but it is also causing the world to have all kinds of bad symptoms. ”

The statement of the Great Cishu King is too general, and Jiang Bai feels that "virus" is a little easier to understand.

The World Tree is like a super-mainframe computer, and forbidden knowledge is the virus that invades it.

And if forbidden knowledge is allowed to continue to pollute the World Tree, the whole of Teyvat will probably fall apart.

The Great Mercy Tree King clearly realized that she could not remove the forbidden knowledge with her powers, so she created a device that integrated human wisdom and named it the Void.

She integrated the wisdom of the people, and then dedicated all her strength, and finally cleared all the forbidden knowledge in the World Tree.

But this does not mean that the forbidden knowledge has really been completely eliminated.

As an existence that is one with the World Tree, the Great Mercy Tree King has been tainted by forbidden knowledge.

Even if she dies, her existence, everything related to her will be preserved in the World Tree as memories and knowledge, so that forbidden knowledge can never be eradicated.

This is what it really means to forget the world.

"I see...... Alhaitham finally understood everything.

The reason why the Akademiya has been doing useless work is because they went in the wrong direction from the beginning.

Wanting to heal the World Tree is not in the healing of the World Hand itself, but in the Great Mercy Tree King.

Even if the Akademiya creates a god, as long as that god can't come here, then the withering of the World Tree will continue.

There may be a miracle like the one that forbidden knowledge was cured thousands of years ago, but the chances of such a miracle happening are slim to none.

Nahida clutched her heart, even though she already knew what to do, she felt an uncontrollable heartache.

Tears ran down her cheeks, hot tears dripping onto the ground.

"I don't want to forget you...... Is there no other way? ”

"No more. Letting my existence disappear once and for all is the only way to heal the world. ”

The Great Mercy Tree King stroked her cheek and wiped the tears from her face.

"I see in you a will that I didn't possess back then, and you may become a greater god than me."

Nahida looked at her in a daze, and her tears flowed even harder.

She had just seen her sun, and she was mentally prepared for it early in the morning, but when it was really time to put it into practice, it was so uncomfortable.

The Great Mercy Tree King held her in his arms, and the two individuals of the same essence hugged each other tightly.

"There is no need for two World Trees in the world, the death of the old tree will bring nutrients and nutrients to the new sapling, and my existence will disappear with the old tree.

"Grow, the old tree has decayed, and the new tree will carry everything."

As her words fell, the tiny little tree grew rapidly, budding, and rejuvenated, and the dense foliage gradually covered the sky and the sun, lush and full of life.

It took over the duties from the withered tree, and took over all that it carried.

The figure of the Great Tree King dissipated with the withered tree, as if it had never appeared.

When I re-watched the plot, I felt that there was a little bug.,So the plot here has been changed.,Write what I think is the most reasonable way.。

The Great Mercy Tree King = World Tree

Little Auspicious Grass King = Small World Tree

The Great Mercy Tree King is gone, but the World Tree is still there, so will the little auspicious grass king and the branches that have been picked return to the tree, or will they take root in the ground?

So I chose to make the little auspicious grass king become the new world tree, so it makes sense.

(Actually, I feel that according to the development of the plot, the old world tree is gone → the doctor burns the tree, the forbidden knowledge is completely solved→ Nahida grows into the new world tree, which is more reasonable)
