Chapter 260

~8 min read 1,506 words

It is only natural that at his level of status, he looks down on the divine abilities I have comprehended; I have nothing to be surprised about, merely some regret and disappointment that I could not use this opportunity to further cling to Li Mo's thigh.

Sensing the resentful gaze from Shichen beside him, Yang Mei gave Shichen a triumphant expression.

"...."

Seeing Yang Mei's triumphant look, Shichen ground his teeth and took a deep breath.

Fine, I won't get angry, I really won't get angry; why get angry with that wretch?

Damn it!

No way!

The more I think about it, the angrier I get; just wait, once we leave the Dao Master's dojo, just you wait and see.

As if sensing Shichen's hostile demeanor, Yang Mei sheepishly withdrew his gaze.

Forget it, better not attract hatred, otherwise I'm afraid I'll get beaten up later.

"Dao Master, Shichen's Path of the Supreme has been explained; then I..."

Yang Mei looked expectantly at Li Mo and said.

Although innate divine abilities are good and suit me well, the Path of the Supreme is definitely the most fragrant; compared to the Path of the Supreme, what do innate divine abilities amount to!

"I shall teach you this now."

Seeing Yang Mei's clownish appearance, Li Mo smiled gently and said.

"Thank you, Dao Master."

Heart filled with joy, Yang Mei immediately bowed again.

"Dao Master, since Shichen masters the Great Dao of Time and thus evolves the River of Time, do I, who master the Great Dao of Space, evolve the River of Space, and then evolve all Great Daos returning to Space?"

Yang Mei asked with some curiosity.

"Naturally not; the Path of the Supreme is unique and also eternally proven; if it were as you say, then what essential difference would there be between this River of Space and the River of Time? You would merely be walking a different Great Dao; how could this be called the Path of the Supreme?"

Li Mo said with a mix of helplessness and amusement.

If it were that simple, he wouldn't have needed to devise such a path for Shichen; he could simply have Shichen copy Fuxi and walk something similar.

Supreme, Supreme; uniqueness is the Supreme; any similarity is the same, essentially identical, so how could there be talk of two Supremes?

If it were this simple, the Path of the Supreme would probably be rampant throughout the heavens and myriad realms.

The Supreme One is unique!

There will be no similarity, no connection whatsoever; this is what constitutes the Supreme!

"I see; I thought too simply."

Yang Mei awkwardly scratched his head and immediately respectfully bowed, saying: "I implore the Dao Master to point out the way through the confusion."

"Your path is the Supreme Yang Mei Path, or rather, the Supreme World Path; speaking of it, your comprehending this innate divine ability at this moment is perfectly timed; this will allow your Supreme World Path to be walked even better."

Li Mo said slowly.

"The Supreme World Path?"

Yang Mei's expression froze, somewhat confused.

What difference is there between this and the Supreme Heavenly Dao Path?

Why does it sound like his is much lower?

After all, theirs is the Supreme Heavenly Dao, the Supreme Plane, while mine is the Supreme World?

Just a World?

Of course, he only thought this in his heart and naturally would not ask; obviously, the Supreme World Path spoken of by this person would not be so simple; it must be terrifying and magnificent; if he spoke recklessly again, it would truly make the other person displeased.

While he was thinking, Li Mo, having considered briefly, continued speaking.

"You master Space; what is Space? Up and down are Yu, past and present are Zhou; if Time is fluid, then Space is solid."

"And Space can also be.... a World!"

"Your true form is the Space Willow Tree; since this is so, you carry Space, carrying the myriad realms."

"If I recall correctly, you have read many novels; since this is so, do you remember the novels about the World Tree?"

Li Mo said leisurely.

"The World Tree...."

Yang Mei's heart was vaguely stirred, as if he had gained some understanding, comprehending what Li Mo meant.

Immediately, Yang Mei sucked in a sharp breath, a look of shock appearing in his eyes.

So this is the meaning of the Supreme World Dao?

You call this a World??

Indeed, his vision was still too small; he still hadn't kept up with Li Mo's perspective; good heavens, he was about to exclaim "good heavens."

"One leaf, one world; one tree, the heavens and myriad realms; I understand your meaning, Dao Master; I master Space; since this is so, why not take my true form as the core, extending from every leaf, every vine, thereby creating worlds, creating worlds."

"My true form is the pillar supporting the operation of worlds; every leaf is a world, every vein is a galaxy; if the branches, then they are planes."

"I have just comprehended the innate divine ability Heavenly Gang Space Art, which can already absorb surrounding Great Daos, transforming them all into source and into Space; if I use this divine ability, I can evolve worlds even more effortlessly."

"If one day my true form supports the entire heavens and myriad realms, I will be that Supreme Master of Space! I will be that Supreme Ruler of Worlds!"

Taking a deep breath, Yang Mei, already envisioning that scene, said solemnly.

"What you say is half right and half wrong; it is and it is not."

Li Mo shook his head and said.

Yang Mei's comprehension is not bad; at least he saw quite a bit of information; no wonder he was able to comprehend a divine ability just now.

··· 0 flowers sought 0 ··

However, the vision is still not big enough.

Of course, it is already very good.

"Right, or not quite?"

Yang Mei's expression froze.

Is what I said not thorough enough, not correct enough?

"If bearing all heavens constitutes the Supreme, then that Supreme is far too cheap. Have you forgotten that the Supreme paths of other beings all have several more steps to take after the first stage? The path to the Supreme World is the same."

"Though you evolve the heavens with your true body as the core and foundation, you do not use the heavens as the sole guide. Just remember one thing."

"One leaf, one heaven; one branch, ten thousand realms. If you are the Supreme, what you support will be billions upon billions of heavens. With a mere sway of your branches and trunks, you can shed boundless power of the heavens."

"All heavens are borne by you; all ten thousand realms are born from you. You are the source of the boundless heavens, the root that supports everything."

Li Mo said calmly.

"One leaf, one heaven? One branch, ten thousand realms?"

Yang Mei's pupils contracted, his mind shook violently, and his face went completely blank.

Too small, too small; in the end, his vision was too narrow.

Indeed, how could this one's vision be compared to his? How could this one's grand strategy be imagined by him? No wonder others can effortlessly lead people onto the Supreme path, while even spending billions of derivative eras, he could hardly conceive of it.

They are not even on the same level!

Support the heavens?

What nonsense!

It should be supporting boundless heavens!

Thinking of that scene, Yang Mei immediately drew in a sharp breath, his scalp went numb, his whole body was beyond description by mere blood heat, his face flushed red with excitement, and he was so eager he wished to implement it right now.

"I understand what the Dao Lord means."

"Though I frame and evolve the heavens, I do not take the heavens as the core; I must leave room for change. Once the main body consists entirely of heavens, the second step can begin. However, Dao Lord, there is one thing I do not understand."

With surging emotions, Yang Mei said with a dry mouth and throat; by the end, Yang Mei was slightly puzzled.

"Speak."

Li Mo gestured.

"If I evolve the heavens with my true body, what should I do after the heavens are fully evolved? How should I separate or merge the heavens, and then evolve billions upon billions of heavens?"

Yang Mei asked, scratching his head.

"That is a matter for later. Once you have completely finished the first step, I will give you the answer then."

Li Mo chuckled lightly and said, "As for now, do not aim too high. You haven't even evolved a single world yet, yet you are thinking about how to evolve boundless heavens?"

"Yes, I understand."

Yang Mei said awkwardly.

"Thank you, Dao Lord, for bestowing upon me the Supreme Path. The Dao Lord's grace, Yang Mei will never forget in my lifetime; I vow to serve the Dao Lord with my life!"
