Chapter 45 Li Yuan's Memories (2)
"So I set up a game. Yao... If you still remember that child, the child who obeyed me and trusted me very much. Shortly after you left, he could no longer bear the endless horror and nothingness on the giant tree, so he chose to commit suicide. At that time, I didn't know what purpose he wanted to collect some DNA from his body and preserve it."
"What I want to do, yes, you didn't think wrong. At this time, I chose to copy it again through his DNA... I know that if you hear these words, you will definitely accuse me of betraying human ethics, but have you ever thought that I am not you, I don't have such a smart mind and adaptability? If you are still there, if you are facing this situation, you will be able to instantly think of a way that is neither moral nor able to solve the problem. But I am not you... I have to do this, and under such a situation, I have to do this."
"I created the clone Yao. I want to use him to go down the tree to lead the stray child to the tree. Yao was very scared. He knew that as long as he got down the tree, his power would quickly pass away and gradually become a useless man under the influence of distorted cause and effect. I told Yao that as long as he got down the tree to lead the stray child to go up, I would pick him up, and I would not make him become any useless man."
"Yao was naive. He believed my words. But I deceived him. From the beginning, he was just a tool for me. At that time, I just wanted to get the eternal heart of that child. Even when facing the real Yao, I could deceive him with verbal confusion, let alone just a false clone?"
"Qiu, you laughed again... forgive me. My sins are entangled. If I die, even hell will not take my dirty soul. I just hope you can go to heaven. This is my lifelong wish, this is the only regret of "I" in the first time and space, and it is also the "my" wish in countless times and space."
"For that wish, I will give you everything from the body to even the soul."
"I began to realize my plan. In my control, Yao, the child, was very obedient and quickly left the giant tree and teleported to that space. But I found that I did something wrong - because there was no supercomputer in this world to do various calculations for me, during the transmission process, I made a decimal point wrong in the vast ocean of data, and soon the evil consequences of this decimal point emerged - Yao was eventually teleported to that world, but he was hundreds of years earlier. In his era, he passed by the birth of the wandering child for hundreds of years. They were not in the same time and space, and it was impossible for them to meet, let alone Yao stayed on the giant tree."
"Yao on land soon discovered this mistake. At that time, he still fantasized that I would bring him back to the giant tree, but I didn't... Yao waited for me on land for decades, growing from a child to a young man, growing from a young man to a middle-aged man, leaving the world of causal twisted, the curse of the giant tree kept burning and spreading on him. For many nights and days, he endured the indescribable pain, and was still waiting naively and expectantly for me to bring him back to the giant tree, but I didn't."
"I'm a devil."
"In the end, he was completely disappointed, and he began to curse me from his heart and resent the world. He chose to commit suicide, wanting to end this endless pain with death. Sadly, even the last power of death is gone. After being killed, he is constantly resurrected and becomes another immortal. He will survive forever, in the form of this curse."
"Yao also launched his revenge. He joined an organization called the Giant Tree God Cult. The organization had a passion beyond human imagination towards the Giant Tree - the channel to the causal distortion world. He joined this organization and wanted to find a way to relieve the curse of the Giant Tree through this organization. But he was disappointed. After all, the technology of humans in that world was too backward. Even though he used his wisdom to help the humans of that era solve countless problems, he was still far from solving the mystery of the curse of the Giant Tree."
"In the end, after countless suns and moons, he made the final decision. He wanted to climb a tree and solve the curse of the giant tree, and the only way to face it head-on. If you choose to climb a tree again, he will be cursed by the even more terrifying giant tree, but this is also the only solution. He wants to give it a try."
"This is the origin of the two expeditions of the Giant Tree God Cult."
"With his intelligence and the strategy of transcending this era, he easily lobbies the princes and wealthy merchants on the ground to sponsor his expedition. The first expedition failed soon. However, all of this was within Yao's calculations. He had long known that it was a fantasy to conquer this giant tree with just those humans and primitive human-like equipment from the past... From another perspective, I guessed his mood at that time, which was also his last expectation for me. He was looking forward to the fact that I on the tree could remember his existence after seeing this expeditionary force. He used this method to remind me that I could bring him back to the world of giant tree."
"What was I doing at that time? At that time, I was working hard to create the second clone of Yao, throw him into the right time and space to bring the wanderer up. God blessed me at that time to eventually fail, otherwise... my sin that was already so sinful would have doubled."
"Yao went on the battle in person on the second expedition. Of course, this was originally in his plan. How could he lift his curse if he didn't climb the tree himself? The expedition on the giant tree was not as smooth as expected. He and his army encountered countless obstacles. The giant tree had not even climbed one percent, and the supply was not enough. The soldiers in the army were seriously injured and their morale was sluggish. Some mortals even plotted to overthrow Yao's rule and return to the land. All of this was suppressed by Yao because he knew that rashly climbing the tree made his curse even more intense, and this was his last chance. Even if he sacrificed all the expeditionary forces, he would do whatever he wanted."
"When his expeditionary army arrived about three percent above the giant tree, near the area of the Mystic City, more than half of the people in the army had died. He knew that no matter how hard it was to suppress and spur, this army of mortals would not be expected to go any further."
