Chapter 208 The Ultimate Chaos Path
Blood rained down; this was a chaotic world that had just experienced a terrible upheaval.

The whole world was filled with an atmosphere of deathly stillness, as if life had been cut off, yet it was slowly regaining its vitality.

At the summit of a high mountain, Shi Mo, dressed in a black robe, sat cross-legged. This was merely a weak avatar of him, a god-level being who was traveling abroad.

However, with Shi Mo's current level of cultivation and abilities, even if he is only at the level of an Ancestral God, he can still unleash combat power at the World Realm level.

Thousands of years ago, Shi Mo's clone happened to travel to this place and happened to encounter a world-level evil cultivator who was wantonly slaughtering people and refining evil magic weapons.

Unfortunately, Shi Mo was a step too slow. Although he eventually killed the evil cultivator, all living beings in the entire Chaos World perished.

If Shi Mo hadn't intervened and killed that evil cultivator, he probably would have destroyed the entire Chaos World and seized the Heart of the World.

Shi Mo spent considerable effort dispelling the malevolent energy, resentment, and deathly aura that permeated this desolate and chaotic world. It took thousands of years for the world to finally begin to slowly regain some vitality.

However, it may take tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years for life to be born again.

Destruction is the easiest thing to do, but gestation requires a long period of slow accumulation.

Just like a powerful being who may have undergone many years of arduous cultivation and many experiences to become a true power, but when encountering an even stronger being, one can often perish in an instant.

Experiencing the changes in this world and the slow process of its recovery, Shi Mo was deeply moved.

Life is tenacious; through chaos and change, everything is full of vitality and energy.

The creation of life is also a kind of Tao, and a Tao full of spirituality.

The Dao is mysterious and full of spirituality; it is not rigid, so it has endless possibilities for evolution, just like the Dao of Chaos that Shi Mo comprehended.

However, its essence remains unchanged. The ultimate chaotic path is both dead and alive.

Therefore, in theory, all cultivators can comprehend the ultimate chaotic path, but the more certain something is, the harder it is to understand, and it cannot tolerate any bias or trickery.

Time passed quietly, and life was born again in this chaotic world. Under Shi Mo's guidance, an increasingly prosperous cultivation civilization emerged, giving rise to more and more powerful individuals.

Finally, billions of years passed, and the entire chaotic world, after reaching its peak, declined and fell into great destruction. The vast majority of living beings perished, with only a portion of immortals and demons, along with the beings carried within their personal magical treasures, surviving.

However, for those who are at most at the level of True Gods and Dao Ancestors, it is very difficult to survive in the chaos.

Therefore, Shi Mo, who inexplicably witnessed the shocking scene of the great destruction of the entire chaotic world, created a great world for them in the surrounding chaos.

In order to create this vast world, Shi Mo perished like Pangu, the creator of the world.

However, he was happy because he had gained so much over these billions of years. By experiencing the great destruction of the chaotic world and the process of creating a new world, he became more certain and confident in his understanding of the ultimate chaotic way and truly comprehended his ultimate way.

Meanwhile, Shi Mo's true spirit is also reincarnated in this newly opened world, experiencing even more...
Beyond the Three Realms, in the chaos, outside a celestial cave, Shi Mo sat quietly, his gaze piercing through the endless chaotic energy, silently observing the Three Realms.
Millions of years have passed, and the Three Realms are now more prosperous than ever. A number of new beings have emerged in each world realm, and even figures like Suirenshi, the Three Pure Ones, Tathagata, and Fengmo have ventured out on adventures and even comprehended the strongest Dao.

The potential of all the immortals and demons in the Three Realms was immense. With the guidance of cultivation methods provided by Shi Mo and Nuwa, their cultivation levels experienced explosive growth.
Nuwa has even comprehended the ultimate path of fusion, and has now become a Third-Step Dao Lord, possessing considerable prestige in the endless realms.

As the number of immortals and demons in the Three Realms increased, in order to prevent the Three Realms from being unable to withstand the pressure and falling into great destruction too early, Nuwa personally created hundreds of chaotic worlds around the Three Realms. This shows how many immortals and demons have been born in the Three Realms now.

However, although many beings from the Three Realms migrated to those newly opened chaotic worlds, the efficiency and speed of the birth of immortals and demons were far inferior to that of the Three Realms.

However, Shi Mo remained at the World Realm, seemingly stuck at the peak of the World Realm, unable to break through.

However, none of the powerful beings in the Three Realms who had successively caught up with Shi Mo in cultivation dared to underestimate him.

Without Shi Mo's guidance, it wouldn't have been easy for Suirenshi and Tathagata to comprehend the strongest path.

Even if they comprehend the strongest path and spar with Shi Mo, they are all easily crushed by him.

In terms of realm, Shi Mo had already reached a level that was unimaginable to them. Even those who had comprehended and merged the strongest Dao in the World Realm would only be crushed in front of Shi Mo.

Although Shi Mo has not yet broken through to become a Dao Lord of Life and Death, even ordinary three-step Dao Lords would probably be no match for him. If he were to go all out, he could easily suppress and kill a two-step Dao Lord.

Even Nuwa, who had already achieved the third-step Dao Lord status by fusing the strongest Dao, could not comprehend Shi Mo's current realm.

She had roamed the endless lands for billions of years and had never heard of a prodigy like Shi Mo.

However, Shi Mo still did not break through, as if he still felt that his understanding of the Dao was not perfect enough. This left Nuwa speechless, but she couldn't help but look forward to it. She wondered how powerful and monstrous Shi Mo would be after breaking through to become the Dao Lord of Life and Death.
"Hmm?" Shi Mo, who was looking at the Three Realms with a somewhat ethereal gaze, suddenly brightened up: "Chaos. Although chaos can evolve into various Daos, its essence is ultimately chaos, a chaos with infinite possibilities."

"So this is the true ultimate Chaos Dao, which has puzzled me for so long, hahaha." With this realization in his heart, Shi Mo felt the resonance from the Chaos Dao Origin, the true source of the universe, deep within the endless and distant Chaos. He couldn't help but laugh excitedly.

As the saying goes, "If one hears the Way in the morning, one can die content in the evening." The excitement of hearing the Way brings more joy to a practitioner than any achievement.

"Shi Mo, what makes you so happy?" A clear, melodious laugh rang out, and Nuwa, dressed in snow-white robes, stepped out from the chaos.

This is not her true form, but her Dharma body that governs the Three Realms. Her true form is still venturing out and honing her skills, hoping to reach the fourth-step Dao Lord level as soon as possible and become a true Dao Lord power standing at the pinnacle of the endless realm.

"Hmm?" Immediately afterwards, Nuwa keenly sensed the change in Shi Mo's aura and comprehended the ultimate Chaos Dao. That step was a fundamental improvement.

Even Nuwa sensed a dangerous and oppressive aura emanating from Shi Mo.

At this moment, Shi Mo seemed to have truly become a chaotic world, or more precisely, even more terrifying and unpredictable than the mysterious fluctuations contained within a chaotic world.

"You've broken through?" Nuwa asked Shi Molian with some surprise and anticipation. Shi Molian nodded slightly, unable to hide his joy, and said, "Yes, I have finally comprehended the true and ultimate Chaos Dao."

"The ultimate path of chaos? Are you preparing to break through?" Nuwa asked with burning eyes.

“That’s right! I’ve waited so long, and I can finally take this step,” Shi Mo said, filled with excitement and anticipation.

Now he can sense the origin of this chaotic universe, and he also vaguely feels that the origin of the Chaos Dao is the most core, the most mysterious and powerful, and the source of all other Dao origins. It is the strongest ultimate Dao.

Soon after, inside the chaotic cave where the array's restrictions had been lifted, Shi Mo's strongest true self and his clone, who had quietly reincarnated and cultivated throughout the Three Realms, sat side by side, simultaneously beginning their breakthroughs.
The Daoist Master of Life and Death: every step is a matter of life and death. One must walk one's own path, and once one has walked it, there is no going back.

The chaos outside the Three Realms surged and boiled, the invisible chaotic power forming a terrifying vortex. The resulting fluctuations even spread to the Three Realms and the surrounding chaotic world, alarming all the immortals and demons in the Three Realms.

"The Dao Lord of Life and Death? Such a huge commotion, the ultimate Dao is indeed terrifying." In the distant chaos, Nuwa was also somewhat shocked as she looked at the vast chaotic vortex.

Shi Mo, absorbing the power of chaos like a whale swallowing its prey, saw the Dao Tree, which was 36,000 feet tall, rapidly grow and become even taller and stronger within the chaotic space of his dantian, drawing upon the mysteries of the ultimate chaotic Dao.

Eventually, the Dao Tree grew to a height of 58,000 zhang, becoming incredibly thick.

The Dao Lords and Dao Trees at the edge of the Dao Integration Realm are all 108,000 zhang tall. This height represents the level of one's cultivation realm, while the thickness of the Dao Tree reflects the breadth of one's understanding of the Dao.

At the same time, Shi Mo's divine body began to be restructured, with the ultimate chaotic path as the core. The moment the divine power of the Dao Lord level was formed, a mighty aura spread out.

That aura was so powerful that even the array and restrictions couldn't conceal it. It even moved Nuwa, who was watching from afar, to exclaim with a gleam in her beautiful eyes: "Having just broken through, you're already comparable to a second-step Dao Lord?"

While breaking through, the blue-and-white space in Shi Mo's sea of ​​consciousness also took the opportunity to transform the Dao Lord's magic power and divine power. The power of the transformed blue-and-white mist was so strong that it was comparable to that of a normal fourth-step Dao Lord.

After the breakthrough in divine physical power, the breakthrough in mental power also followed.
Over millions of years, while comprehending the ultimate Dao of Chaos, Shi Mo has experienced many things, and his mental strength has already undergone a transformation, reaching the sixth level of mental strength and opening up a world of mental strength.

The mental world now constructed using the ultimate chaotic path is naturally more perfect and powerful.

After his breakthrough, the amount of chaotic power Shi Mo absorbed and the magnitude of his breakthrough even surprised Nuwa.

After achieving the breakthrough, he stood higher and saw further. Shi Mo also gained more insights into the ultimate chaotic path he had comprehended and understood the direction to move forward.

"The ultimate path of chaos, once you grasp its essence, is about adding branches and leaves, which is the evolution of chaos. The final, perfected ultimate path is when you can easily create a universe using the ultimate path of chaos," Shi Mo said with some anticipation.

At the same time, Shi Mo also realized that this was a true path to heaven, and his advancement in realm would be incredibly smooth.

Because chaos encompasses everything, it is too perfect and complete. Once its essence is understood, its evolution will naturally follow, just as the heart of the world gave birth to a chaotic world.

This is the most difficult ultimate path, and in a sense, it is also the easiest—it's difficult at first, then easy!

With Shi Mo's current lofty and commanding level, whatever he comprehends next will be integrated into the ultimate Chaos Dao, and the more he comprehends, the faster his realm will advance.

It can be said that Shi Mo has now built the foundational framework of the Dao, and all that is needed is to continuously fill it with flesh and blood.

As insights flowed freely, Shi Mo couldn't help but calmly contemplate them once more.

After a long while, Shi Mo emerged from his seclusion and saw Nuwa waiting outside, seemingly enjoying tea alone. He paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Are you so eager to know my strength and abilities after my breakthrough?"

"I'm really curious, what level have you reached this time?" Nuwa, who was standing up with a smile, sensed the aura on Shi Mo and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows in surprise, "Second-Step Dao Lord? So fast? Was it a result of accumulating strength for a big breakthrough?"

"The water will flow naturally." With a slight smile, Shi Mo casually struck out with his palm into the chaos ahead. Instantly, time and space seemed to freeze, and then the chaotic energy surged and evolved, with yin and yang transforming, time and space changing, and various energies such as earth, wind, water, and fire differentiating, as if a world was about to evolve and be born.

"Chaotic evolution?" Nuwa's beautiful eyes widened, her gaze shining with a hint of realization, and she had gained some understanding of the Dao of her Fourth Step Dao Lord.

"Is this the ultimate path? It encompasses all the evolutions of the Dao, truly the most essential Dao," Nuwa exclaimed, somewhat admiringly mesmerized.

"This is only a comparison with the ultimate path; it is still far from the true ultimate path," Shi Mo shook his head slightly.

Nuwa, her beautiful eyes fixed on Shi Mo, couldn't help but ask, "Shi Mo, what level have you reached now?"

“To reach the second step of Dao Lord, one still needs to accumulate some experience,” Shi Mo said casually. “As for true strength, it shouldn’t be much weaker than yours.”

"So, once you become a Second-Step Dao Lord, you'll be able to catch up with or even surpass me? Truly, this is the ultimate Dao!" Nuwa exclaimed in increasing surprise.

Shi Mo smiled noncommittally, and the two then sparred in the chaos.

Currently, Shi Mo's strength is indeed inferior to Nuwa's, but Nuwa is still helpless against Shi Mo.

The ultimate path of chaos is too perfect and comprehensive. It is very strong in terms of attack, defense and domain, and has almost no weaknesses.

Shi Mo even felt that if his realm improved a bit more, he would probably be able to cultivate a perfect immortal body once he reached the second-step Dao Lord level. At that time, his body would transform into chaos, and even some powerful figures among the peak Dao Lords and Eternal Emperors would probably find it difficult to do anything to him.

When Shi Mo broke through to become the Dao Lord of Life and Death, some of the top immortals and demons in the Three Realms congratulated him. After that, he went into seclusion to cultivate and comprehend the Dao.

As for the entire Endless Territory, because he had always deliberately concealed his identity, not many people in the World Realm knew his background.

Now, no one in the endless territory knows that a future most powerful and terrifying Dao Lord of Life and Death has been quietly born.
