The Journey to the Other World Starting from Douluo.

Chapter 637 "World Tree" + "Earth Ley Lines" = Akasha Record?
"Alright, regarding the question you were just discussing, I can now give you a clear answer: I do indeed have the ability to relocate the World Tree, so you can rest assured about that."

"As for your concerns, I can only say that you are overthinking things. I will help with this small matter if I can, after all, I admire the Demon God quite a bit."

"Furthermore, I'm quite interested in the World Tree in your world. Even if you don't say anything, I'll bring it over when you relocate..."

"So, in short, leave the World Tree issue to me. You two just need to move it over with Sumeru. Don't worry about anything else."

"Also, since you've decided to move here, just live your life well in this world. This world doesn't have any garbage laws like wear and tear, so stop talking about dying. You never value your own life..."

Wu Tong didn't lie to them about his interest in the World Tree; he was indeed very interested in the World Tree in Sumeru.

Moreover, he was not only interested in the World Tree, but also in the forbidden core of the Teyvat world, the Ley Line, which was closely related to the World Tree.

This was not an idea that came to Wu Tong by chance; he had already had this idea when he was making a deal with Zhong Li about the horse talisman.

However, at that time, Wu Tong learned through subtle means that Zhong Li and the others were not ready to give up Teyvat, so he could not make a move.

But things are different now. The Seven Kingdoms are about to move to their own worlds, and Teyvat is about to be destroyed. It would be such a waste if the World Tree and the Ley Lines remained on the Teyvat continent and perished with it...

What? You're saying calling the World Tree and Ley Lines "treasures" is a bit of an exaggeration?

Haha... That's not an exaggeration at all!
As mentioned in the Genshin Impact game's storyline, the role of "ley lines" in the Genshin Impact world is to record the progress of the starry sky's events, that is, history and memories. Because they are only information, the dead cannot be resurrected by modifying the World Tree.

Moreover, the ley lines are the root system of the World Tree. The ley lines constantly absorb the memories of this world, and the World Tree also gathers all the information and wisdom of the world from ancient times to the present.

The World Tree is located deep within the earth beneath our feet. Although it is not a tree in the biological sense, you can roughly think of it as a large tree growing upside down.

Although not a tree in the biological sense, "ley lines" are like the root system of the World Tree, constantly absorbing the memories of this world from the earth...

The "ley lines" absorb history and memories, while the "World Tree" records all the records and intelligence collected by the "ley lines." Together, they form a massive data terminal containing all the information about the world...

A massive data terminal that records all the world's information...

how about it?
Does this sound familiar?
Indeed, this is exactly the same description in other worlds of the Akasha Records, which contain all the knowledge in the universe.

Of course, this does not mean that the World Tree and Ley Lines are the same as those recorded by Akasha in the Genshin Impact world.

The true Akasha record is a metaphysical concept, an indispensable essence of the world that cannot be observed but truly exists within it.

The World Tree and Ley Lines in the Genshin Impact world, when combined, only possess a portion of the characteristics and effects recorded by Akasha.

The true Akasha is recorded as having far greater power and ability than the World Tree.

Even so, the World Tree, which possesses some of the characteristics and effects recorded by Akasha, was enough to pique Wu Tong's interest.

After all, strictly speaking, the World Tree of Teyvat, possessing the characteristics of the Akasha Record, is itself a treasure!

Although this treasure's energy level might not be very high due to its origin, Wu Tong didn't care.

You should know that he is a super overpowered person who can deduce the Martial Soul system into a Divine Ring Master system with multiple levels of potential.

Upgrading and modifying the World Tree and ley lines was a piece of cake for him.

Therefore... since ancient times, treasures have belonged to those with virtue.

Since the Teyvat continent no longer needs the World Tree and Ley Lines, it wouldn't be unreasonable for Wu Tong to accept this "gift" as his own, would it?

(Teyvat/Fanes: You shameless bastard, what "gift"? You just stole it...)
……

Back to topic.

After Wu Tong finished speaking, Buyer and Naxida nodded in agreement with his suggestion.

There's nothing I can do; disagreeing doesn't seem to make a difference!
They've already made such detailed arrangements for them; if they still refuse, they'd really be ungrateful.

Furthermore, they can't possibly cling to their beliefs and perish along with Teyvat and the World Tree after knowing there's a perfect solution, can they?

If they were to actually do that, their behavior wouldn't be considered a virtue of self-sacrifice, but rather pure stupidity!

And the two generations of grass gods, who were known as the gods of wisdom, could not possibly be fools.

And to be honest, they didn't want to perish with the continent of Teyvat.

So, the two women exchanged a glance, and after a brief, unspoken communication, accepted Wu Tong's kindness and expressed their gratitude:
"Thank you so much, Mr. Wu Tong! I'll have to leave the matter of the World Tree to you!"

"I really don't know how to thank you enough. Please feel free to ask us to do anything in the future. We will do our best to fulfill our responsibilities!"

Wu Tong simply waved his hand at the two women's solemn promises, indicating that he already knew. As for whether he actually took them to heart, only he knew!
……

Thus, apart from Liyue and Mondstadt, Inazuma, Fontaine, and Sumeru also fell into Wu Tong's hands.

Currently, of the seven kingdoms, only Winter and Nata remain that have not yet made a clear statement.

So, after dealing with the two generations of grass gods, Buyer and Naxida, Wu Tong turned his attention to the second generation ice god, Barnabas, and the second generation fire god, Mavica.

Looking at the energetic and passionate Mavica in her black tight-fitting motorcycle outfit and the stunningly beautiful Barnabas in her icy blue luxurious palace dress, Wu Tong's eyes showed little emotion.

There was no way around it; he had seen just too many beautiful women lately, which had given Wu Tong a strong resistance to beauty. His immunity to beautiful women had greatly increased.

So, when faced with these two beauties who, despite their different styles, were both stunningly beautiful, Wu Tong simply stated bluntly, "You two have been observing for a day now, shouldn't you have made up your minds?"

"Make a statement! What are Nata and Zhidong's final plans?"

Both women were taken aback by Wu Tong's direct question, but they quickly came to their senses.

I'd heard from people at this college that Mr. Wu Tong disliked beating around the bush, and now that I see it's true...

Mavica spoke first, laughing heartily:
"Of course I plan to join. Five of the Seven Gods have already made it clear that I should join as well. Wouldn't it seem like I'm going to be a loner if I didn't?"

"Moreover, Teyvat already had enough of a mess, and now this Honkai Trial has suddenly appeared, which is said to get stronger as civilizations grow stronger. This is simply making life unbearable!"

“Although Nata is a martial nation, it would be foolish to do something that is known to be impossible.”

"Therefore, although it's hard to leave my homeland, if it's for the sake of Nata's people to survive, I'm willing to join your world..."

"Welcome to the Douluo World, Nata."

Upon hearing this, Wu Tong nodded in satisfaction:

Great! Seven Kingdoms collection progress increased by one, currently six-sevenths complete!

At this moment, Barnabas also spoke up, but she did not rush to answer Wu Tong's question. Instead, she took a step forward, walked up to Wu Tong, and looked at him with a serious expression.

Just as Wu Tong and the others were still confused, Barnabas's clear, cold voice, as pure as moonlight, suddenly rang out:

"Mr. Wu Tong, before I answer this question, may I ask you a question first?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Tong frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled as to what the Ice Queen Barnabas in front of him was trying to do.

However, Wu Tong's brow soon relaxed.

Let's deal with whatever comes our way. In any case, his current extraordinary power is enough to allow him to temporarily set aside his extraordinary wisdom!
Moreover, it seems that there's nothing about him that he can't reveal.

As the saying goes, "A gentleman is always at ease, while a petty person is always anxious."

With no fear in their hearts, they naturally wouldn't be intimidated by Barnabas's questions.

So Wu Tong casually picked up a bottle of drink from the table next to him, opened it, took a sip, and then continued, "Of course, ask me whatever you want!"

Barnabas ignored Wu Tong's actions and continued to ask in a cold voice:

"My question is very simple: if we do move here, how do you plan to settle us in and treat us?"

Very good, now we finally understand what Barnabas really wanted to ask.

Upon hearing Barnabas's question, Wu Tong immediately understood what the other party wanted to ask.

On the surface, they were asking Wu Tong how he would settle and treat them, but in reality, they were probing Wu Tong's views on these people from another world, and at the same time, they were trying to find out if Wu Tong, the controller of this world, was as cruel as the laws of nature.

If Wu Tong's control is truly comparable to that of the heavens, then she definitely wouldn't want to bring Zhi Dong into this world.

Because Tianli alone was already giving her a huge headache, if Wu Tong, who was stronger and more powerful than Tianli, were to take control of Zhidong, she might as well just let Zhidong die, at least that would prove that they had resisted.

After understanding Barnabas's meaning, Wu Tong frowned with a look of melancholy.

I said, "You've been investigating all day, what have you actually found out? Why are you asking such obvious questions?"

If you ask anyone in the college, they would know my usual personality and style, right?
(People in the academy: ...Is this something you can just say casually? A dean who doesn't do any work and just eats and sleeps all day...If word gets out, what will become of our reputation?)
Fortunately, although the question was a bit ridiculous, he didn't feel the need to shy away from it.

So Wu Tong met Barnabas's gaze quite frankly and said with a smile:
"Alright, I understand what you mean. Don't worry about this. I'm not like Tianli. I'm very lazy."

"So you can decide your own internal matters when the time comes. As long as you don't cause any trouble, I don't care what you do on a daily basis!"

Upon hearing this, Barnabas did not immediately reply. Instead, he stared intently into Wu Tong's eyes, as if trying to discern something from them. However, in Wu Tong's eyes, he only saw a serious yet cynical demeanor.

Upon seeing clearly, Barnabaston immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then revealed a radiant smile, like the melting snow of early spring, and said:
"It was just a small test, please don't take it to heart, Mr. Wu Tong."

"Zhi Dong is also willing to join your world. In gratitude to Mr. Wu Tong for leaving a place for Zhi Dong to stay, Zhi Dong's people will go through fire and water for you as long as you need them."

"Welcome to the Douluo Continent: Zhi Dong!"

Wu Tong responded with a smile; he wasn't actually that angry about Barnabas's actions.

After all, Barnabas's concerns are the kind of worries that any normal person would have.

If he got angry over this, he would have been a walking gas tank by now!
Moreover, beautiful women have privileges. Although Wu Tong has developed resistance to Barnabas's beauty, it doesn't mean that Barnabas has no charm.

Her perfect, angelic beauty, her exquisite figure draped in a luxurious ice-blue palace gown, and her cool, moon-like, and aloof, snow-like temperament all contributed to her high impression score.

For a beauty of this caliber, Wu Tong was still happy to give her face.

Returning to his senses, Wu Tong looked at the seven leaders who were still standing before him, as well as Zhong Li, who had somehow dealt with Alicia, and Wendy, who was holding a wine bottle and looked quite drunk.

Very well, the decision-makers of the seven kingdoms (the seven gods) are all present. Now, it's time to clarify some things...

Wu Tong clapped his hands, drawing the attention of those around him, and then said:
