Female Swordsman Training Dojo

You only used one skill in lane and then immediately teleported back to base, huh? What kind of cowardly lizard is that?

Qingxin landed with difficulty, setting down the slightly dizzy Misuruhime from the high-speed maneuver. Undeterred, he once again unleashed his power of existence, simultaneously scanning his surroundings with all his might. But the result was the same as before: apart from a few lucky monks who were still alive, there were no other creatures around the cathedral, let alone any experts who could fight him.

Harunobu was speechless. Logically, it should be a good thing that the enemy fled at the mere sight of him, but the thought that the opponent was the so-called God, the Lord of All Armies, filled Harunobu with a sense of utter disillusionment. Even if they didn't fight to the death, shouldn't they at least fight for dozens of rounds to determine a victor?

No, that's not right. If Amaterasu, from an island nation like Japan, can fight him for three hundred rounds, there's no reason why the Christian God couldn't, right? Or was that not God at all, but some kind of angel? But that aura…

Harunobu scratched his head in frustration. The information was far too scarce, and he didn't know much about the Cross, making it difficult to make a judgment. But thankfully, although he didn't know, there was someone in the sea who did, wasn't there?

Enormous tentacles emerged from the sea, which had been split in two, and landed on the shore. Leviathan's booming voice echoed through the air: "Mortals! Keep your promise!"

"What's the rush? We just finished fighting." Qingxin manipulated the power of corruption to destroy those hidden and troublesome magical nodes, while casually asking, "By the way, you've been here for so long, you should know that guy from earlier, right? How come he was so weak? Wasn't he God?"

"He doesn't deserve it." Leviathan sneered, looking utterly disdainful. But he didn't continue, clearly seeing through Harunobu's tactic.

Qingxin rolled his eyes: "You're going out anyway, right? How about I give you some information as payment for your travel expenses?"

Leviathan extended two newly freed tentacles, each covered with dense eyeballs larger than Qingxin's head: "I don't want to leave here yet; in fact, I had a hard time getting in..."

Qingxin was somewhat surprised, but before he could say anything, Leviathan changed the subject: "But since you saved me, it won't hurt to tell you."

Harunobu stared speechlessly at the octopus that was gradually emerging from the sea, and decided to get straight to the point: "So?"

"There is only one God in this world, and everyone else is just using his power, including me."

Leviathan immediately unleashed a devastating attack, leaving Harunobu speechless. Misuruhime retorted even more directly, "But with so many branches of Christianity, surely they're all governed by the same God? Then why would they fight each other?"

Leviathan slowly withdrew his tentacles one by one, stretching as he replied, "Because the real God died long ago, or rather, he never lived at all—haven't you ever wondered why all the Christian religions use the same kind of magic?"

Harunobu waited a while before preparing to answer. Then Leviathan spoke again: "Because they are actually using the same essence, you could say the same power; explaining the principle behind this would be a very long process. You can simply understand it as the Westerners' so-called 'God' being a huge pool of water, and those so-called Gods being thieves who have mastered the method of stealing water from the pool."

"Just like if you know about the different branches of Christianity, you'll find that they all believe in the same God, and the arguments always revolve around who God's prophets were, what God's character is like, and what God will or has done—"

"And that enormous pool—the real God—is in this damned Garden of Eden."

Leviathan extended all of its hundreds of tentacles, and its massive body rose from the water, looking down at Harunobu: "Therefore, there is only one true God, and it will never be those thieves!"

Qingxin looked at the giant octopus and helplessly shrugged: "Okay, I know you want to be God too, but before you introduce your Heavenly Father to me, can you tell me where that huge pool is?"

Chapter 535: The Destroyer of the World (

In response to Qingxin's question, Leviathan gave a brilliant answer: "I don't know. If I knew, why would I still be sealed here?"

Very good, very reasonable.

Qingxin felt that this period had been the most speechless time of his life.

Perhaps feeling embarrassed or something, Leviathan suddenly lowered its altitude and said to Qingxin, "Although I don't know where the Throne of Heaven is, I can tell you how to get through the world walls set up by these thieves, so you won't have to break the seal every time."

"I think you just want me to stop creating more competitors for you."

Qingxin complained, but didn't refuse. While the power of corruption was useful and plentiful, it was better to conserve it. Besides, this Leviathan was unavoidable and seemed relatively normal, but other magical beasts might not be so easy to deal with.

"So, what exactly is this so-called 'world wall' you're talking about?"

Leviathan sank back into the water, extending a relatively slender...

Chapter 577

Many tentacles were placed in front of Qingxin and twitched.

Harunobu took a step forward and placed his hand on the end of the tentacle. Surprisingly, it didn't have that slippery, sticky feel; it was like holding a dried coral. As Harunobu expected, with his touch, a flood of information rushed into his mind, explaining what a World Wall was and how to discover and use it.

In short, the World Wall is the boundary line drawn by each God in this Garden of Eden, or a special kind of barrier. However, compared to ordinary barriers, the World Wall is actually a special mechanism of this Garden of Eden, just like the cycle of reincarnation in the Underworld or the survival adaptation in Gensokyo.

It can create an insurmountable distance between two landmasses that are almost touching, much like the ocean where Leviathan resides. One reason why Leviathan cannot break free on its own is because it is "outside the world," preventing it from unleashing many of its powers.

Because this is inherently part of the Garden of Eden's mechanism, the existence of the World Wall is as logical as gravity; normally, it's imperceptible, and one would simply assume the distance is normal. Even for someone like Harunobu, since it doesn't directly affect him, it doesn't feel particularly incongruous.

However, once this point is made clear, discovering the World Wall becomes much easier. Even ordinary people can use the principle that "there must be a World Wall in a place that looks particularly far away" to make that judgment. As for Qingxin, he can now perceive the power of existence, magical power, and even thoughts.

The method of passing through is even simpler. Based on his understanding of the barrier, Harunobu only needs to use a simple spatial spell to pass through the world wall. Yes, a simple spatial spell.

Qingxin doesn't know any of them.

The episode where I most wanted the Yamato sword.

Leviathan retracted its tentacles: "Didn't I give you the corresponding spell? If it doesn't work, you can practice for a few years until you master it."

Qingxin shook his head: "I don't have a few years to waste here. Isn't there any other way?"

"So you humans are just impatient. You're not that old, are you?" Leviathan waved its tentacles, and actually came up with another idea for Qingxin: "Why don't you try using your strange black mist and see if you can erode the world wall?"

Harunobu frowned: "Didn't I already try all of these before? Ah, I see..."

He had been using his corrupting power to erode the ocean. Although he accidentally broke Leviathan's seal, he was essentially eroding the cracks in the world, so it didn't affect the world's walls. Well, perhaps he couldn't see the world walls either; otherwise, given the corrupting power's corrosive nature, it should have caused some reaction upon contact.

However, now that he can see the World Wall, the power of corruption might actually be able to erode it... If all else fails, then he'll just have to release the legendary monsters sealed in Eden. Anyway, Harunobu isn't going to spend years learning spatial magic here.

Having made up his mind, Harunobu simply got up and prepared to practice on the world wall of this region. He spread out his power of existence, easily catching the world wall that Harunobu and Leviathan were about to destroy, and then injected his corrupting power into it.

As Leviathan examined the strangely powerful black mist, he warned Qingxin, "Hey, a world wall isn't just a link between world walls. You can use spatial magic to locate it, but the space you've created through this kind of erosion might not be where it is. Be careful not to walk into those thieves' trap."

Harunobu focused intently on controlling the corrupting power and did not reply. However, Mitsuki bowed slightly to Leviathan to express her gratitude.

After watching for a while, Leviathan finally turned over and sank into the sea, disappearing without a trace.

After he left, Harunobu successfully used his corrupting power to erode the world's barrier, opening a large hole in that invisible and intangible wall, which in a sense could even be said to not exist. However, just as Leviathan had said, the hole opened in this way was chaotic and disordered. Even Harunobu himself did not know what was on the other side, and could not even see the green mountains and clear waters and the thriving fruit trees that should have been there.

"Harunobu..." Misuru called out, trying to urge Harunobu to be careful. But before she could finish speaking, Harunobu had already nodded and left the large hole that had been eroded out.

"Sure enough, the signal for telepathic communication suddenly improved because we were close to the world wall; perhaps this hidden world is surrounded by a huge world wall. Could we use the power of filth to erode it and escape?"

Haruno pondered this in his mind, but quickly abandoned the idea amidst the discussion between Asuka and Izanami. Because, putting aside whether this Garden of Eden was actually a massive world barrier, he first needed to find the outermost world barrier, and then he needed enough time to erode it.

Although, from the current perspective, all the "gods" here are incredibly weak, Qingxin doesn't think that all "gods" are incompetent. His extensive experience reading online novels in his previous life makes Qingxin very clear that systems like this "divine power pool" often involve a system that becomes extremely powerful once all permissions are obtained.

Ultimately, the reason Christianity was able to defeat the gods of Greece and Northern Europe and control Europe and America couldn't be because they were good at boasting. The Lord of Armies... we still need to be careful.

So for now, we still need to find a way to get closer to that so-called pool of divine power. No matter how strong or weak the enemy is, it's better to fight in their home base than in the defensive facilities.

Harunobu gazed at the slowly shrinking vortex, but it was truly slow; even after Harunobu withdrew the corrupting power, it was still moving at a snail's pace. At this rate, it would take another ten to twenty days for this hole, roughly 2.3 meters high and 1.5 meters wide, to fully recover.

"Meihe, let's go."

Harunobu turned around and called out to Misuru-hime, then chuckled and tapped her on the head: "What's wrong? Do you feel neglected by me?"

Harunobu hadn't missed what Misuru had been doing; he just found it amusing to see the princess looking so anxious and uncertain.

Misuru's face flushed slightly, but under the influence of some strange emotion, she put one hand on her hip and retorted defiantly, "Who said that! I was just thinking about how to get you a knife!"

Harunobu immediately drew out his words: "So you were worried about me~"

"Shut up!" Misuruhime shouted, puffing out her cheeks as she lowered her head and glanced down at her instep.

Even so, she was in a much better mood than before.

Chapter 536: The Disturbance of the Godslayer

As Harunobu traversed the eroded world wall, his news spread like wildfire throughout this vast hidden world. Anyone existing within this hidden world would hear the message carried by the wind, the water, the birds, the beasts, and the fish—information about a destroyer of the world.

In a very simple and clean church, a Jesus who looked almost exactly like the stereotypical image reached out and felt the breeze passing through the hollow. After a while, he opened his eyes: "The destroyer of the world... huh? It seems that God is going to shoot himself in the foot this time."

A slightly suppressed chuckle echoed in the not-so-spacious church, awakening the reliefs on the walls, the birds on the ceiling, and the little elves from the cracks in the walls... all casting curious glances at Jesus.

Jesus ignored the little creatures and walked out of the church to the shore of a lake that shimmered like a sapphire in the bright sunlight. A giant octopus was quietly floating in the center of the lake, its hundreds of tentacles all tucked away peacefully beside it, washing itself on the lakeshore.

Chapter 578

The priests ignored the fact that the clothes were being repaired.

"Long time no see, Leviathan. I never expected you to escape like this." Jesus walked on the water to Leviathan's side and teased, "I thought you would be locked up until that Manichean fool was completely devoured. It seems you old man are still destined to live."

Leviathan opened his hundreds of eyes and looked at Jesus standing before him: "Are you here to cause trouble, John?"

Jesus, named John, shrugged: "Hey, don't be so distant. It's just that I haven't come to save you for two hundred years. You know, God has been watching me, so I can't do anything about it."

Leviathan rolled her eyes hundreds of times, not wanting to argue with this bastard any longer, and said directly, "Stop with your stupid sense of humor, you masochistic Puritan; with such a good opportunity, aren't you going to take action?"

“You mean the Destroyer of Worlds? I admit he’s very strong, but he can only break the world’s walls, not… alright.” John stopped making excuses and said, “But you know he doesn’t have a good impression of the Church of Christ. How can I guarantee he’ll cooperate with me?”

“He’s very lecherous.” Leviathan slightly raised his tentacle, precisely pointing at the beautiful nuns one by one by the lakeside: “With so many resources, I don’t believe he won’t be tempted.”

“How can one rely on beauty to please others for long?” John shook his head. “Besides, as far as I know, this man already has dozens of wives, including the Mother of the Dead of the Shinto Church. Even if I send nuns to seduce him, it will be difficult to get him to completely side with the Christians. I might even lose some promising young women.”

Leviathan had been trapped for a long time and was really unaware of the outside situation, so he couldn't refute John's words at first. But he quickly realized that he had been tricked again: "Even without using your beauty to seduce, you can't just stand here and watch, can you? Besides, what does the Church of Christ have to do with your Puritanism? At worst, you can change your name to the Crescent Moon Church or simply the Cosmic Church."

"You even know about the universe?" John looked at Leviathan in surprise, then got his face covered in tentacles. Leviathan uttered the F-word in perfect pronunciation: "Fuck you!"

“You’re really rude. You can’t become God like this.” John used holy light to evaporate the sticky liquid and water stains on his face, and then his face was covered in it again.

Leviathan raised his hundreds of tentacles and looked at John with displeasure: "I'm serious, your damn pretentiousness and sense of humor really annoy me; so, now you're either going to have an open and honest talk—like before—or you're going to fight me first."

John wiped the water and slime off himself again, and for the first time, a look other than a smile appeared on his face, a mixture of helplessness and joy: "What a suspiciously irritable person... Alright, let's talk about the next plan, brother."

"Fuck you!"

Hundreds of tentacles descended with Leviathan's booming voice, slamming John into the water. Meanwhile, the nuns on the lakeshore remained calm, going about their business without a ripple, as if the one who had just been slammed into the water wasn't their Heavenly Father or Lord, but some unfortunate passerby.

“Ah…you’re still as damn irritable as ever.” John emerged from the water, still dry and clean. “Okay, I admit it, I’m tempted; the Destroyer who can freely break down the world’s walls, with his help, I could even try to challenge that old God myself—but you have to admit, he’s not so trustworthy, and I don’t want to get killed by his sword first.”

Leviathan withdrew his tentacles: "Yes, but that's for you to think about, John; I'm just a messenger and a source of clues. You know this man better than I do... and I shouldn't need to remind you again that he could show up here at any moment and blow up your world."

"Yes, he may not be your match, but if God discovers this good opportunity..."

“Wait a minute.” John raised his hand to interrupt Leviathan’s rambling, and said solemnly, “To correct you, he can kill me as easily as he killed an ancient evil god that appeared in his country.”

Leviathan was somewhat astonished, his hundreds of eyes, including those on his tentacles, widened in surprise: "You are the God of the English Puritans!"

“Yeah, a fraction of the real God.” John shrugged. “Now you know why I’m afraid to work with him. I’m really worried he’ll kill me in some other god’s world.”

Leviathan pondered for a moment, then said uncertainly, "Are you mistaken? I've seen him fight. Yes, he's strong, but not strong enough to easily kill you. You know the ocean that sealed me; his full-power sword strike could only part the ocean for a few hundred meters, and at most, it couldn't even part to the seabed!"

Just as Leviathan didn't doubt John's deception, John didn't doubt Leviathan's either; they were friends for centuries. Back then, John was just an ordinary believer, and Leviathan was merely an ordinary aquatic monster. Although the two-hundred-year seal separated them for a time, it prevented their friendship from suffering further setbacks.

“I know, it’s said that he was at his strongest when he was working together with the Mother of the Underworld. If the Mother of the Underworld didn’t come with him, then perhaps he wasn’t at his strongest,” John murmured. “But you also said that he can still use that strange black mist, which is the Mother of the Underworld’s unique power…”

Leviathan scratched his forehead: "Maybe you could just go and ask her? If the Mother of the Underworld is still alive, you can't possibly not have noticed... Don't tell me you haven't thought of that?"

John had certainly considered that, but he paused not because of it, nor did he offer an explanation. Instead, he asked, "You said you saw that man contacting his wives?"

Leviathan spread his tentacles: "He said it himself, I don't know if it's true or not, but if the world wall is destroyed, the isolation will definitely be affected, you know that."

“Yes.” John’s eyes lit up. “I have an idea! If I don’t dare to talk to that man about cooperation, I can certainly talk to his wives about cooperation!”

Chapter 537: Cooperation Application

Princess Harunobu carried Princess Misuru as they flew through the fiery red sky. Behind them were countless celestial fire meteors trailing long crimson tails, and a city already engulfed in flames—Sodom.

Including the Garden of Eden at the beginning and the subsequent Great Cathedral, this is the sixth "world" that Harunobu and his companions have traveled through, and as always, it has been destroyed. However, it should be noted that Harunobu did not cause this world's destruction! He had just arrived when God, who was putting on a grand silver party, directly destroyed the world with heavenly fire and teleported away! He didn't even save the originally designated righteous people! It's almost like he's suffering from PTSD.

"Honestly, these gods have no imagination at all. They're all just acting out scenes from the Bible," Harunobu muttered, patting the fire wings on his back. Misurugi leaned against him, a faint smile on her face, less reserved than before: "After all, the inhabitants here are God's chosen people. Wouldn't it affect their faith if we didn't follow the Bible?"

Having traversed four worlds—each lasting less than a day—Harunobu and his companions still managed to gather a considerable amount of information. For instance, they discovered that not all of these worlds necessarily had a God, and that some were even governed by "angels." Furthermore, they learned that some of these worlds even shared the same template, with Harunobu encountering yet another opulent cathedral.

Another thing that really bothered Qingxin was that these bizarre worlds all had the more advanced rules of the Jewish people, even if the responsible angels or God weren't Jewish. This made him increasingly suspicious that this hidden world, or rather, the so-called true God who had become a pool of divine power, was actually Jewish—so now he had no choice but to transform into Seele and fight the King of the Jews.

However, even so, we still need to find the location of the Divine Power Pool first.

Chapter 579

Row.

A blurry barrier appeared in Qingxin's perception, but the pitch-black mist beat him to it, eroding a large hole in the barrier that isolated the world.

Qingxin rushed straight in, completely leaving this world that had been swallowed up by the World-Destroying Heavenly Fire.

"This looks familiar. Are we going to have to replay the story of Jesus winning the Resurrection again?" Harunobu surveyed the Roman-style city before him, his eyes immediately catching sight of Jesus being led to the cross. The moment Jesus saw Harunobu, he burst forth with a dazzling holy light, broke free from the Roman soldiers, and vanished into thin air.

Harunobu was already used to this situation and ignored the runaway Jesus. Instead, he put down Misuru-hime and took out a bottle of [Diluted Sakura Dragon Blood] from his system for her. Misuru-hime was, after all, still an ordinary person. Amaterasu's bloodline gave her excellent magical talent and physical abilities far superior to ordinary people, but she was still not as robust as Harunobu, who was fed dragon blood, and still needed to eat regularly.

However, it's best not to eat things in the secluded world indiscriminately, otherwise you might easily be trapped there forever—this is recorded in the Kojiki. So Harunobu simply used the various tonics he obtained from the system to feed Misuru-hime, and also to strengthen her abilities.

There's no need to worry about running out of supplies. While the amount of [Salty Sakura Dragon Blood] is small, one serving of [Cat Food] is enough to last Misuruhime a day. Moreover, not counting his previous savings, with the expansion of the number of spots on Harunobu's disciple list, he can earn more and more Diligence Points every day. Now, he can accumulate enough for one draw in about five days.

As Misuru drank the blood of the Sakura Dragon, her face became rosy. However, part of this was due to the nourishing nature of the Sakura Dragon's blood, and part was due to other factors, which is another matter.
