As the savior, I only want to play single-player games.

Kagura Tendou recognized that this must be a characteristic of energy beings. They have no sense of pain, do not feel suffering, do not have sufficiently complex intelligence, and only express the most basic emotions, namely, the curiosity and joy of an infant.

Rumble!

Just then, the enormous vegetation moved aside as if by a mechanism, and the entire green world seemed to be split open, revealing a road that led directly to the world's boundary at one end, while the other end led to Kagura Tendou.

A figure slowly appeared. It was young and full of vitality, with a body no different from an ordinary person. It was strong, with long green hair like a waterfall, and held a green scepter that resembled intertwined gnarled tree roots.

It came before Tendo Kagura, tapped its scepter on the ground, and the whole world seemed to quiet down. It looked at Tendo Kagura, who was covered with a layer of little elves.

"Savior, you have reappeared in this homeland."

May all gods swiftly come to my aid; if anyone disobeys, I will subdue Fengdu: Chapter 117: The Former Savior

"who are you?"

"The World's Remnant, the Wood God."

"I don't know you." Kagura Tendo shook her head slightly. Although her descended form was only Sequence 7, her perspective was still broad.

The Wood God before us is at position 4 in sequence, which is the limit of the world.

In other words, this little world exists because of it.

"But I have seen the Savior after his arrival with my own eyes."

Tendou Kagura was startled. "You've seen the Savior?"

The Wood God said calmly, "I have seen him, but that person was not you, but the savior who came before you."

He wasn't the only savior...

When Tendou Kagura heard this news, he didn't show much emotion. He had already guessed that the system had other hosts before him.

However, he never imagined that he would encounter a being who had seen the former savior.

He was quite moved: "You..." He paused, but didn't know what to ask, such as the story of that savior.

The Wood God seemed to know what Tendou Kagura was about to say.

"A fleeting moment in a thousand years, a single cicada blooming once in ten thousand."

"In the endless chaos, even time can perish, and death loses its original meaning. Even so, in the absurd and nihilistic chaos, the savior still exists."

It uttered mysterious words in a low voice, showing no disdain or underestimation of the power of the Heavenly Dao Kagura.

Tendou Kagura listened intently to these words, unsure whether the person knew about the system's existence.

"How do you know I am the savior?" This was the first time Kagura Tendou had encountered such a situation. She opened the system interface again, but as always, there were no prompts.

It will only move slightly when it encounters content related to Outer Gods; otherwise, it can be ignored.

"I have been asleep for too long, and the people of the world have gone through countless generations. Only the Savior can descend upon the land of the dead," the Wood God explained. It had been woken up, otherwise it could have continued to sleep.

The arrival of other life forms in the world is undoubtedly a momentous event.

After a long silence, Kagura Tendo finally asked, "What did the savior of that generation do?"

"In the distant past, our world was unable to resist the Outer Gods and was on the verge of destruction. The Savior descended and killed an Outer God called the Tree of Life..."

Thus, the divine status of the Tree of Life was obtained by the remaining life forms, and under the influence of the Outer God's power, all life forms underwent distortion.

The Wood God is the most severely affected of them all.

However, the Savior used the properties of the Outer Gods' Source to decipher a mysterious path that allowed for safe advancement.

The collapse of the world was inevitable; the fog of chaos had already filled the entire land, leaving only a last corner of the earth.

Even a savior cannot save a world where the rules have completely collapsed.

He too will one day depart.

The savior entrusted the last planet he had protected to the Wood God.

With the help of the savior, the Wood God, using the rules that spilled out when the world collapsed, rebuilt a small world. The space was small, but it was complete in every way.

The Wood God wasn't originally called by this name, but because of its divine status, it became Sequence 4 and changed its name, taking wood as its god, and supporting the operation and cycle of this small world.

Did He say anything before He left?

"The true savior will one day be resurrected and can restore everything." The Wood God did not hide anything. Faced with the shattered world, the savior had also sighed helplessly and mentioned that if he were the true savior, he should have the means to repair the rules of the world.

"What do you mean?"

Over the years, the answer to the question of who the Wood God is has become vague.

Even Outer Gods cannot repair the world.

Because the Outer Gods represent only a mysterious path, with only one rule.

But what about the world?

Composed of countless rules, it maintains an extremely delicate balance, vast and exquisite.

Although it is difficult to shake, if it really shakes the rules of the world, the consequences will be severe.

The divine music of the heavens remains silent.

Does the term "savior" refer to a power capable of saving the world?

It's not as simple as just banishing the outer gods; it also requires the power of salvation and repair.

If they truly possessed such an ability, then the second node wouldn't have ended up in such a state.

Where is that savior now?

Did it break free from the system's control, or did it perish in nothingness and chaos?

Otherwise, why would the system be bound to him?

Tendou Kagura didn't want to delve into this issue, and the Wood God was also unaware that the title of Savior seemed to be taboo in the Chaos. He had slain the Tree of Life, and the outer gods who had originally coveted the world had scattered and fled.

"You weren't originally in this form?"

The Wood God shook its head. They were originally material life forms, but due to the strong corrosiveness of the Wood of Life pathway, they had to transform into the energy life forms they are today.

"Where is your civilization?" Kagura looked around, her dark eyes activated, but she saw no signs or clues related to civilization.

The Wood God shook his head again.

"Without civilization, all the living beings that once existed have long since turned to dust and merged into the world's cycle mechanism."

Those little sprites are the descendants of the original life forms. Now, after countless generations, they have long since evolved into their current form. Although they are not powerful, they are extremely stable.

The Wood God said, “We are the remnants of the world. But unfortunately, my companions only reached Sequence 5 at most, and did not reach Sequence 4. They could not withstand the passage of time and fell one by one, until only I was left.”

Strictly speaking, he is the only one who can be considered a remnant of the world.

Kagura Tendou also noticed this. The little spirit was extremely natural and simple. Although it had spiritual fluctuations, it showed no signs of intelligence at all, only instinctive behavior. It was like a carefree baby dancing in his palm, lively and cheerful, chirping.

The wood gods have suppressed their superior characteristics; they are completely fearless and incapable of thought.

The Wood God stared at the little elves, his green pupils utterly numb, devoid of any emotion, heartache, or struggle.

Over the years, I've experienced all the pain I needed to experience, and I've regretted what I needed to regret.

There's nothing I can't understand anymore; I've long since gotten used to it.

The Wood God, whether male or female, and of unknown age, has long been accustomed to using endless slumber to offset the wear and tear of time.

Sometimes, they may not awaken even once in billions of years.

In this self-circulating little world, there are no other living things, nor soil or rocks. It is thoroughly eroded by the Tree of Life. Perhaps it will undergo a transformation every 100,000 years, then decay and wither, and then be reborn in the cycle of death.

Gradually, it has shaped everything in this world, and in countless evolutions, certain patterns can be found.

Kagura Tendo sighed softly, "Is this what the savior wanted?"

Can this world still be considered a decent world?

Are these little elves still considered citizens of the world?

May all gods swiftly come to my aid; if anyone disobeys, I will subdue Fengdu: Chapter 118: The Path of the Tree of Life

This is a magnificent and magical world, or you could say an alternative plant paradise, where the entire world has been painted green for who knows how many years.

Those little sprites are all energy life forms.

They are conceived, born, and grow here, eventually reaching their peak, but like a fleeting moment, they begin to decline rapidly, die, and transform into a wisp of energy wandering between heaven and earth, merging with other energies, waiting for the next rebirth.

This way of life cannot give rise to civilization because it lacks the ability to be passed down and its thoughts and wisdom cannot be transmitted.

Civilization is a skyscraper; it can only be built upon a sufficient number of foundation stones.

These elves have no fertile ground for civilization.

Their inner world is a blank, extremely simple, with only pure emotions expressed. In these emotions, there is no attachment to life, no fear of death, and not even love or hate.

These energetic life forms are also part of the world's cycle.

This abundant vitality originates from the external erosion of the Tree of Life, which transformed all matter into its present form.

They are less like living beings and more like natural phenomena of this world, a kind of family-like existence.

Logically speaking, only the world can give birth to such a great miracle as life in nothingness and chaos.

However, in reality, Sequence 3 can create its own mysterious followers based on its own rules.

This is an alternative life form, but all its offspring are born in extremely extreme environments. Because they rely on only one rule, their life characteristics are naturally unconventional, with extremely poor adaptability to the environment. Moreover, their growth path is already fixed, and changing to other paths would be tantamount to suicide.

Just as clouds are a product of the water cycle, wind is a result of air movement, and mountains are formed after geological movements, they cannot exist without these foundations.

The greatness of the world's people lies in the fact that the mysterious paths they have deciphered can overcome these fatal weaknesses.

For example, a Sequence 9 Shadow Creature will vanish in a strong and prolonged light, condensing into a Shadow Crystal.

Yuzuru Nishimiya, who has activated the Eternal Darkness Path, will not be like this. When exposed to strong light, she will at most feel weak and unable to muster any energy, but will not die.

Although these little sprites are extraordinary life forms, their life forms are similar to those of familiars. If they were to leave this place, could they still survive? Could they still live in the normal world?

The Wood God said, "This is naturally not the outcome the Savior desired, after all, He is not the true Savior."

A savior is someone who can salvage and save everything in the most desperate moments.

From this perspective, the system's previous host was undoubtedly unqualified.
