"You understand everything?" Xing Luo looked at Zhou Hao. "Do you know what Dao Lord is?"

Zhou Hao nodded.

After reading the message given by Xing Luo, he realized that when a cultivator reaches the perfect realm of World God or Chaos Immortal, it means that their understanding of the 'Dao' has come to an end.

At this point, practitioners need to find their own path, creating their own Dao from nothing, in order to continue to improve and break through to the ' Dao Lord ' level.

Because every time Dao Lord takes a step forward, he must create a deeper level of 'Dao'. If any of the 'Dao' created in one step is wrong, then if they try to improve their strength by relying on this 'Dao', it will cause their divine power to collapse and their true spirit to collapse, which will lead to their death and annihilation.

Therefore, the Dao Lord realm is also known as the ' Dao Lord of Life and Death ', a cultivator who walks on the edge of life and death with every step.

Moreover, even if a Dao Lord successfully breaks through and advances with each step of the Dao he creates, reaching the Four-Step Dao Lord realm, which is the peak of the Dao Lord, he still needs to merge with the Dao one last time to make the Dao he created truly perfect and truly exist eternally before he can become an "Eternal Emperor".

This final step of achieving Dao is far more dangerous than the previous four steps. Countless exceptionally talented and heaven- Heavenly Dao Lords have fallen at this critical juncture, including the master of Xing Luo, the ' Starry Sky Holy Lord '.

"Yes, it's good that you understand." Seeing Zhou Hao nod, Xing Luo finally showed a slight smile on her usually cold face.

This amazed Zhou Hao.

Previously, Xing Luo had been expressionless and aloof, but now that she smiled, the entire hall seemed to brighten up.

"When my master failed to achieve Dao, knowing that the collapse and shattering of his true spirit was irreversible, he sold all his treasures, even the Starry Sky Eternal Realm, and devoted endless effort to forging me. He also invited the three most skilled Eternal Emperor in the Endless Territories to join forces with him," Xing Luo said slowly.

"In fact, with the master's cultivation level, even if his true spirit continued to collapse and shatter, he would still be able to live for tens of thousands of Chaos Eras. But he could never forget, and it was his greatest wish, which enabled him to fight his way to the strength of the number one Dao Lord in the Endless Territories at that time, that was to find his mother, the ' Emperor Xing Mou '."

"The ' Emperor Xing Mou ' was an Eternal Emperor mysteriously disappeared when the Master was still a First-Step Dao Lord. Legend has it that the Emperor Xing Mou was killed by a great being throughout the Endless Territories. However, the Master, through the secret method of true spiritual connection with the Emperor Xing Mou, although unable to contact him directly, could sense that the Emperor Xing Mou was not dead, but rather trapped in some strange and dangerous place."

"It's just that my master was too weak back then. He knew that even if he managed to find his way there using his true spirit, it would be a death sentence for him to go there, as even the Emperor Xing Mou couldn't escape such a dangerous place."

"So the master roamed and honed his skills in the Endless Territories, even choosing an extremely difficult path to improve his strength, which enabled him to kill an Eternal Emperor and seize an Eternal Realm when he reached the Four-Step Dao Lord." Xing Luo's face showed some pride and satisfaction.

Although she was created after the ' Starry Sky Holy Lord ' failed to achieve Dao integration, it was created precisely when the Starry Sky Holy Lord was at his strongest.

Even now, she can't forget how respectful, even fearful, those ordinary Eternal Emperor were when facing their master, a Four-Step Dao Lord had failed to achieve Dao Integration and was nearing the end of his life.

Yes.

It's fear.

Although Four-Step Dao Lord fails to merge with the Dao, resulting in the collapse of their true spirit and eventual death, they do not immediately perish.

Generally, the stronger Dao Lord, the longer their true spirit will take to collapse; some can even live for tens of thousands of Chaos Eras.

Knowing they are doomed, many Dao Lord go mad and commit mass killings to vent their despair and resentment.

They naturally feared the Starry Sky Holy Lord.

After all, he possesses the strength to kill ordinary Eternal Emperor.

"If Master had chosen an easier path back then, perhaps he would still exist today." Xing Luo sighed inwardly and continued to tell Zhou Hao about the events from 29.72 million Chaos Eras ago.

Zhou Hao listened intently, holding his breath.

It turns out that when Emperor Xing Mou mysteriously disappeared, the Starry Sky Holy Lord was able to roughly sense Emperor Xing Mou's location through the secret method of true spiritual connection between mother and son. It was in the chaos near their Three Realms.

Of course, the Three Realms did not exist at that time.

The Starry Sky Holy Lord believed that if even an Eternal Emperor like his mother could be trapped, it must be extremely dangerous. At the time, he was only a First-Step Dao Lord, so naturally he dared not come to search for her.

For certain reasons, even the Starry Sky Holy Lord dared not reveal his relationship with the Emperor Xing Mou, so he could only desperately improve his strength and come to his rescue when he was strong enough.

Tens of thousands of chaotic eras passed, and the Starry Sky Holy Lord failed to achieve Dao. Knowing that he was doomed, he exhausted all his treasures and wealth to refine this supreme treasure, the ' Void Holy City,' which is composed of ninety-nine high-grade Eternal Divine Weapon weapons.

Cultivators are ranked according to their strength and realm, and so are magical treasures.

Above the Chaos Treasures is the ' Dao Divine Weapon,' forged by the Dao Lord of Life and Death. It is generally only possessed by the top powerhouses among World God and Chaos Immortal, and only one in ten thousand Ancestor God and Ancestor Immortal can obtain the Dao Divine Weapon.

Above that is the ' Eternal Divine Weapon ', which can only be forged by Eternal Emperor. It contains the essence of a divine weapon and is rarely possessed by the World Realm or weaker Dao Lord. It is mostly owned by powerful Dao Lord of Life and Death and Eternal Emperor.

Above the Eternal Divine Weapon, there are even more incredible 'Cosmic Treasures', which, according to legend, can only be forged by the greatest being among the Eternal Emperor, and are the pinnacle of all magical treasures and divine weapons.

Although the Void Holy City is still a magical artifact at the level of Eternal Divine Weapon, because it is a combined fortress magical artifact, its power is no less than that of an ordinary cosmic treasure.

Therefore, after the Starry Sky Holy Lord created the Void Holy City, he set off towards the Three Realms.

"The environment around where Emperor Xing Mou fell was extremely harsh. Even though Master's strength was no less than that of a top-tier Eternal Emperor, and with my help, I didn't expect the density of dangerous places to be so high." Xing Luo shook his head. "If Master hadn't failed to merge with the Dao and could freely unleash his strongest power, he naturally wouldn't be afraid of those dangerous places. However, Master's true spirit is constantly disintegrating. The more he attacks, the faster his true spirit disintegrates."

"Finally, Master couldn't hold on any longer." Xing Luo's eyes were filled with pain. "As Master's true spirit was on the verge of collapse, he made his final arrangements. He left behind all his legacies within the Void Holy City, wanting to cultivate a successor, a successor who could find the Emperor Xing Mou for him, and even rescue his mother."

Zhou Hao's heart skipped a beat; he knew the main event was about to begin.

"The chaos you inhabit is extremely strange. After my master died, I wandered in the chaos for nearly twenty million chaotic eras, but I have never found a chaotic world that could harbor life," Xing Luo sighed.

"Without a master to control me, it's already difficult for me, as a magical artifact, to move. After such a long period of wandering, all the energy left by my master has been exhausted. Helpless, I can only fall into a deep sleep, letting myself move with the tides of time and space, hoping to encounter living beings."

"This slumber lasted for over nine million Chaos Eras," Xing Luo, looking at Zhou Hao. "It wasn't until you disturbed the Void Current Sea that I was awakened."

Zhou Hao listened with a sigh.

A powerful Four-Step Dao Lord, capable of slaying Eternal Emperor, failed to achieve Dao Integration and was destined to perish. Yet, he never gave up on rescuing his mother, only to die on the road without ever seeing her again...

"I wonder what secrets the Three Realms hold." Before venturing into the Ancient Ruins, Zhou Hao had asked his master, the Three Pure Ones, for a map of the chaotic depths surrounding the Three Realms. He knew that the environment around the Three Realms was extremely harsh and contained many unknown dangers.

All known visitors from the Chaos Alien have arrived at the Three Realms from the outside Chaos via a Vortex Space passage; no alien races have ever invaded from other directions.

Now that I think about it, the Starry Sky Holy Lord must have come from another direction.

"Before my master died, he left behind three trials. Each trial will be rewarded with something. As for obtaining my master's complete inheritance and all his legacy, one must pass all three trials." Xing Luo looked at Zhou Hao. "The first trial is the simplest. Anyone below the level of World God only needs to survive in the Void Current Sea with their divine body to pass."

With a wave of his hand, Xing Luo.

Wow.

A black bottle with ancient Divine Pattern suddenly appeared floating in front of Zhou Hao.

"This bottle contains a portion of Chaos Spirit Liquid, enough for you to use until you become World God," Xing Luo said calmly.

"Chaos Spirit Liquid? Or even a whole bottle?" Zhou Hao's eyes lit up as he looked at the black bottle in front of him, his breathing becoming rapid.

Having read the common knowledge about the endless chaos transmitted by Xing Luo, he was naturally familiar with Chaos Spirit Liquid, which was like a hard currency in the endless chaos.

Chaos Spirit Liquid is an essence extracted from chaos by beings such as World God and Chaos Immortal after painstakingly setting up a vast array comparable to an entire chaotic world.

Chaos can create the world and give birth to all things. Chaos Spirit Liquid naturally possesses incredible vitality and power. All kinds of power, such as true spirit, divine soul, mental power, magical power, and divine power, can be restored through Chaos Spirit Liquid.

Furthermore, when cultivating certain supernatural techniques and secret arts that require chaotic artifacts, Chaos Spirit Liquid can be used as a substitute.

Therefore, Chaos Spirit Liquid is extremely precious and rare.

Normally, after a whole Chaos Era of painstaking extraction, a single absorption array can yield only six bottles of Chaos Spirit Liquid.

One thousand bottles of Chaos Spirit Liquid require a single extraction array and 167 Chaos Eras to collect, demonstrating just how precious it is!

Ordinary Ancestor God Ancestor Immortal serve the World God and Chaos Immortal, and often cannot obtain a single bottle of Chaos Spirit Liquid even after several chaotic eras.

But now, having only completed the first test, he has already obtained one liter of Chaos Spirit Liquid, which is a thousand bottles?

call.

Zhou Hao opened the bottle stopper, and a droplet-shaped liquid flew out of the black bottle.

This teardrop-shaped liquid appears transparent, yet within it seem to lie countless worlds, like tiny bubbles, constantly being created and bursting.

An incredible vitality emanated from the water droplet, which stimulated the azure mist energy within Zhou Hao's body, causing its circulation to accelerate.

"Now I don't have to worry about how to restore my fallen clone," Zhou Hao thought with delight.

Because he was venturing out on this adventure, in order to prevent his clones from perishing, and to ensure that the clones left in the Red Dust Immortal Mansion could be recreated from the fallen clones, he left all the chaotic artifacts needed for cultivating the <Twelve Dutian Gods and Devils> in the Red Dust Immortal Mansion.

Now that he has the Chaos Spirit Liquid, he can recover directly here. Not only the seven clones that self-destructed, but also the clone that was lost when he failed to rebuild his divine body can be cultivated again.

That's not all.

Because the magical artifacts that the Darklight Sword Lord prepared for cultivation were only for himself, after Zhou Hao's main body used them for cultivation, the Asura God clone did not have enough magical artifacts to cultivate the <Twelve Dutian Gods and Devils>.

But now that there is Chaos Spirit Liquid, the Asura God's clone can also create twelve clones with the same strength.

"If only there were more Chaos Spirit Liquid." After the initial surprise, Zhou Hao still felt a little regretful.

His current True Immortal realm is comparable to the top Ancestor Immortal of the Three Realms, making him a first-class True Immortal in the endless chaos.

A first-class True Immortal needs approximately one hundred bottles of Chaos Spirit Liquid to cultivate the Twelve Dutian Gods and Devils to reach the second level.

To reach the third level, the twelve clones can be merged back into the main body, causing the main body's strength to increase dramatically. Furthermore, the clones can be created at will. However, the amount of Chaos Spirit Liquid required will increase a thousandfold, requiring one hundred cubic meters, or a full one hundred thousand bottles of Chaos Spirit Liquid!

Even World God and Chaos Immortal might not be able to afford such a price.

"Want more Chaos Spirit Liquid?" Hearing Zhou Hao's insatiable mutterings, Xing Luo up slightly as she turned and walked towards the passageway on one side of the hall.

"Follow me," Xing Luo said as they walked. "If you can complete the second test, the reward you receive will be at least a thousand times greater than the first. If you want Chaos Spirit Liquid, I will give you a thousand cubic meters."
