The main god space.
A voice rang out in a world filled with deathly silence and emptiness: "It was given a form of existence, meaning, and the most basic concept... From that moment on, it was no longer a deity of the dragon spirit species, was it?"
[The correct assessment is that this unit is a derivative information entity created by the host based on their own understanding of "Deathwing Neltharion," and does not possess any of the constituent elements of a "Dragon Spirit Deity."]
"In the system of rules for believing in deities, the divine species exists based on faith."
[This is a correct assessment; the host's existing perceptions and fantasies about the target align to some extent with the element of "faith."]
"So it wasn't primarily driven by the faith of reincarnators or dragon spirits, but rather by Lin Yi... by my 'faith'?"
[The correct assessment is that all the actions and thought patterns of this information entity are based on the host's own will.]
Therefore, even if the "source of interference" is eliminated, it is destined to be irreversible, because what truly causes the chaos is itself.
Therefore, even reducing interference with its actions is futile, because its thinking is derived from its own ideas.
Therefore, every action it takes is in accordance with its own needs, because that is its own need.
So it was curious about Thor, after all, it was also curious about what kind of mentality Thor had in order to carry out meaningless revenge for a "human species" with whom it had only spent a short time.
"In Experiment File No. 0188, faith manifests the ability of individuals to distort cognition at a level lower than their own life level."
Responding to the doubts in one's heart, the Supreme God gave a clear answer.
[The flawed judgment is that the host is the entity whose existing cognition is distorted by beings at a lower level than themselves. Judging from the host's current level of life, there is no object in this world capable of resisting this cognitive distortion.]
"...God, delete all data related to this experiment."
【Command confirmation】
Looking again at the "gods" on the other side of the world, I was speechless: "That's all there is to it."
Let faith cross boundaries and then project it onto reality.
This pollution and distortion of the spirit and will may change the entire world—
"But I can't change myself..."
P.S.: This volume has quite a few plot holes; before you get here, the beginning probably looks like a complete mess.
Godslayer Twilight: Chapter 402 Jiangnan
Jiangnan was once known as Wu and Yue in the Central Plains. Later, with the large-scale southward migration of Han people from the Central Plains, it became a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery.
Throughout history, "Jiangnan" has always been a constantly changing and flexible regional concept, but it has always represented a beautiful and prosperous water town landscape.
The specific imagery symbolized by Jiangnan varied in different historical periods. Its earliest description appeared in the pre-Qin and Han dynasties, and was subsequently given new meanings in the Western Jin, Tang, Song, Yuan, and early Qing dynasties.
In modern times, this place, known for its "talented scholars and beautiful women, and prosperous water towns," has become even more "prosperous" due to a certain special existence. So much so that when people talk about Jiangnan, they don't associate it with the term "land of fish and rice," but rather with the ancient concept of "martial arts world."
The city that Lin Yi set foot in was just like that.

After briefly defining his own "attributes", he turned his attention to the street in front of him.
If you only look at the street in front of you, you might get the illusion that this is an ancient world. However, the information gathered before entering this world and the "electromagnetic waves" that are not passing through the sky are enough to prove that this is not the case. It can only be said that the "Jiangnan" in this world is too strange.
The existence of a "martial arts leader" who is disgusted by modern technology has caused the entire Jiangnan region to be separated from the atmosphere of the 21st century. Even though the outside world has undergone several eras of change, Jiangnan still maintains the appearance it had two centuries ago.
The most distinctive feature here is undoubtedly the concept of "wuxia" (martial arts chivalry).
As far as the eye could see, the most common sights on both sides of the bluestone street were not shops selling various street snacks or anything else, but rather boxing gyms with signs hanging on them. In the short time Lin Yi had been here, less than half an hour, he had already discovered no less than fifty such facilities. Adding the informal ones, there were more than eighty similar facilities on this street alone.
Not only that, but the pedestrians on the street were all dressed in an ancient style. Occasionally, a "knight-errant" wielding a weapon would appear, but it didn't attract much attention. After thinking about it, I can only assume that the people here have become accustomed to this kind of "martial arts style".
"...an interesting world."

According to the active energy detection of the main god, this world should be classified as a neutral world, that is, a world in which the "unscientific" system derived from active energy can completely overwhelm the "scientific" system maintained by inert energy.
However, the reality is not like that. Jiangnan's existence is just a special case. If you leave this city and go to any other place, you will find that this world is also on the path of technology, and has developed to the level of the origin world before it came into contact with the "God Space".
Before investing the information body, Lin Yi had also found part of the reason for this situation through external observation. One of the reasons was the six most powerful energy anomalies in this parallel world—one of which was in Jiangnan. Another reason was the unique rules of this world.
Belief in gods.
Similar to the "Sixteen Races World," but not entirely the same rules.
Naturally, it's impossible for so many alien races to exist in a world that's only classified as medium-active, let alone superior races capable of destroying land or god-like beings with the power to fight against stars.
This world only has humans.
Humans in this world also develop faith, and when faith accumulates in large numbers, it evolves into "gods." However, the "gods" of this world are completely different from the "god species" of the previous world. If the god species are mobile nuclear weapons generated by the aggregation of faith and possessing independent action capabilities, then the "gods" of this world are like missiles equipped with launch and detonation devices, and the switch of the missiles is not in the hands of anyone.
This has led to the existence of numerous deities in this world amidst the evolution of civilizations, but only a very few are truly able to manifest themselves before humankind. The vast majority of them can only play the roles they are meant to play, as depicted in the myths created by humankind, until their demise.
In this respect, the binding force of faith in this world is far superior to that of the "Sixteen Races World". However, there are always exceptions. Even the launch and detonation devices made by humans can fail, let alone the mechanism used to restrain gods.
Throughout human history, most deities born from faith have played the roles they were supposed to play, as described in myths. However, not every deity has done so. Some have defied the descriptions of human myths, detached themselves from their roles, and brought great calamities to the world. These beings are called "disobedient gods."
In order to eliminate these "disobedient gods" who brought immense calamity, some beings emerged among humanity capable of slaying gods and seizing their power. They were regarded as supreme kingly magicians, and were also known as—
"God Slayer..."
Silently reciting the word, Lin Yi subconsciously looked towards a certain place in the distance.
At this moment, there exists such a god-slayer in Jiangnan. She is one of only six god-slayers in this world, and the biggest culprit who turned Jiangnan from a technologically advanced "land of fish and rice" into an ancient "holy land of martial arts".
"To kill gods with a human body, to seize their power, and to become the strongest god-slayer..."
As Lin Yi examined this process from "human" to "godslayer," he suddenly felt an urge to laugh.
“Things that can be killed by humans have the audacity to call themselves ‘gods’. Perhaps they should be allowed to discuss ‘divine life experiences’ with that dragon.”
That being said, Lin Yi wasn't foolish enough to just go and "kill a god." Putting aside everything else, just finding a "disobedient god" was a problem, and even if he found one, he'd need a way to kill it...

Generally speaking, the more complete the analysis of the rules of a world, the more fully the God Space can exert its abilities in that world. This principle also applies to Lin Yi.
However, it is not easy to analyze a world with completely unfamiliar rules. At least for Lin Yi, who had not yet completed the "leap," the only way to achieve the goal of analysis was for his own body to go into that world and use time to "attack and consume" it little by little.
But it's different now.
After roughly understanding his situation and circumstances, Lin Yi, the information provider, immediately took action.
"Based on the experience of the 'Sixteen Races World,' the completion progress of the world rule analysis is not static. As long as we can access the part of the world related to active energy, this process will be greatly shortened. Following this theory, the best way now is to directly find a disobedient god or a god-slayer and fight him."
After taking a look at his meager base stats of 15 points and the blank skill and trait fields below, Lin Yi rationally abandoned this suicidal act.
"Besides, those magicians are also related to active energy. The problem is that this is Jiangnan, and it's Jiangnan with an Eastern martial arts style. It's obviously unrealistic to find a magician with a Western style... Wait a minute."
Suddenly, Lin Yi's gaze fell on a tall, imposing "knight-errant" by the roadside, and a smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
"...Everyone has a martial arts dream in their heart, doesn't they?"

Tianlong Martial Arts School
As one of the top 100 martial arts schools in the entire Jiangnan region, Tianlong Martial Arts School is renowned in the small area of Qing Shi Street. After its master, "Dragon Fist Tianyunba," won the position of a branch leader of the Five Prisons Holy Sect in a martial arts competition half a year ago, the school has become even more powerful. Even other famous martial arts schools in the vicinity have to give it some respect.
Taking advantage of the power of the Five Prisons Holy Sect, the Heavenly Dragon Martial Arts School ushered in a golden period of development.
In a place like Jiangnan, the most profitable industry is definitely not doing business, but opening a boxing gym. From guarding homes to delivering goods to casinos, Jiangnan, which maintains the pre-existing ecology of two worlds, has also carried on these ancient "traditions". While Tianlong Boxing Gym was expanding rapidly, it inevitably offended many people, but because of the prestige of the Five Prisons Holy Sect, no one dared to resist. Occasionally, two hotheads would appear, but they would be "dealt with" quickly.
In the past six months, the number of people coming and going in front of Tianlong Martial Arts School has increased more than three times compared to six months ago.
On this day, a "martial arts practitioner" wearing a straw hat and black clothes appeared in front of the Tianlong Martial Arts School.
The two apprentices at the door exchanged a glance, and one of them stepped forward: "Those who want to practice boxing pay 300 taels as an apprenticeship fee, those who want to hire a protector pay 500 taels as a deposit, and those who want to deliver goods come inside to discuss the matter."
The man in the straw hat tilted his head and asked indistinctly, "Silver?"
"Gold, pure gold."
The man in the straw hat shook his head: "I have no money."
The apprentice was taken aback by what he heard, then said disdainfully, "Get lost, what kind of poor wretch dares to come near the Tianlong Martial Arts School?"
"But I have fists."
The next moment, a whistling right fist struck the apprentice's cheek. With the vision slowed down several times, his eyes bulged, his teeth shattered, and his face contorted—
"bang"
— It was thrown into the air and fell to the ground while spinning.
Shaking his slightly sore right hand, Lin Yi glanced at his retina and saw that his basic attribute had jumped to 20.
"I didn't realize you had such a thick skin."
After a long while, another apprentice next to him finally reacted, let out a twisted shout, and drew the short sword from his back to slash at him.
After dodging the knife by shifting his body to the side, a left fist slammed into his face. The same scene repeated itself before Lin Yi stepped into the boxing gym, stepping over two apprentices who were groaning in pain.
By this time, the people inside had noticed the scene in front of the boxing gym. A large group of "experts" practicing boxing inside were crowding in and approaching. The leader, who looked to be of high status, stopped the excited students behind him, stepped forward, and clasped his hands in a fist and palm salute: "May I ask your esteemed name?"
"The surname is Lin, not Gao."
"Has my Tianlong Martial Arts School ever offended you?"
"Never."
"Then what is the meaning behind this move?"
"Can't you even see that?"
He glanced around, a smile appearing on his face beneath the straw hat: "Let's challenge them."
Before he could finish speaking, the martial artist in front of him suddenly leaped up, his body soaring high into the air and his feet leaving heavy afterimages as he thrust forward. After catching a tiny bit of activity in his body, Lin Yi was overjoyed and reached out to grab his left leg, using his strength attribute, which had soared to 30 points, to fling him into the flower bed beside him.
"How is this possible? Senior Brother's Wind God Leg technique is actually broken—"
"And it's just one hand."
"This is a tough idea, let's work together!"
……
five minutes later.
After pinning the last struggling boxing student to the ground and rubbing him until he was unconscious, Lin Yi looked with satisfaction at the boxing gym filled with groans.
"God, integrate the data we just collected and create a new template."
[Template creation complete, please name it]
"Hmm, let's call them 'Martial Arts Masters'. I didn't expect that martial arts-related things could be related to vitality in this world. Although the proportion is not large, it is still quite considerable when all of Jiangnan is added together. Next, we just need to find trouble for these people... In the martial arts world, fighting and killing are the norm. If you want to value peace all day long, why practice martial arts?"
Just as I was about to turn and leave, a gloomy voice suddenly came from behind the living room.
"You've caused such a ruckus at my Tianlong Martial Arts School, are you just going to leave like this?"
"I thought you were planning to hide until I left."
