Third Step of Chaos: Spirit transformed into Chaos!
This step ultimately required transforming the Divine Soul into Chaos Void. This was the greatest obstacle Li Yu faced.
If the Divine Soul transformed into Chaos Void, then everything would cease to exist. Could thought, consciousness, and memories—the things that represented the "self"—still remain?
Thus, the Third Step of Chaos was more than a hundred times harder than every obstacle Li Yu had encountered before.
It concerned the fundamental question of... who "I" was, and who was "me."
Without all memories of the past, without his own consciousness, without his own thoughts, would Li Yu still be Li Yu?
If he achieved Chaos like this, he would become some inexplicable existence that was "without thought or awareness," "without emotion or desire."
This was what Li Yu had always worried about: cultivating to the very end, only to cultivate himself out of existence.
"So, there absolutely can't be any mistakes in breaking through this step."
This differed from the "lack of confidence" in the Second Step of Chaos. When Qi transformed into Chaos, he could still succeed if he risked everything and charged forward. But if Spirit transformed into Chaos and he dared to charge recklessly, his Divine Soul would be annihilated in minutes.
"The Divine Soul, according to traditional daoist terminology, is also called the primordial spirit. I have already reached the realm of immortal Divine Soul, eternal and indestructible, on the path of the primordial spirit. In the world of Supreme Being of One Life, I also transformed my Dao heart into a Dao Fruit. I have already reached the limit."
But... a Dao Fruit was not Chaos.
From a certain perspective, a Dao Fruit was not merely a realm of the Divine Soul. It was a kind of "status" achieved
