Epic Of Caterpillar

-----

Kireina pondered the question intensively… Which Daos could Rimuru possess?

Certainly, she had many concepts she could cover with her Daos. The firsts that came to Kireina's mind were Water, Spirits, Rainbow, Colors, Light, Oceans, Souls, and even things such as Dissolution or Digestion as Slimes could dissolve and digest any material.

But what else could Rimuru encompass as a Dao? The question wondered around Kireina for just a few little seconds.

Rimuru had developed so much and had acquired so many powers and elements since her beginnings that it was often hard to think what she would end up specializing in, she had a wide range of things she could use and get to, but all of them were only a part of her truest power.

It made sense to think that spirit and water could be the first ones to be specialized, Rimuru had been developing these concepts the most.

As she beautifully slept over her bed, Kireina finally glanced at the gloriousness of Rimuru's Daos, which were generating dozens after dozen of Dao Rivers across her divine realm, which flowed beautifully all around.

Four beads of beautiful shiny essence emerged before Kireina's sight. One of them was blue like sapphire, another was pale white, other was grayish, and the other sparkly and rainbowy.

"Ooohh…!"

Kireina's crimson-red eyes opened wide as she saw with shock the scene in front of her.

It can't be…!

The first Dao, the blue-colored one, was the Lesser Dao of Oceans! Then, the next Dao, the one glowing with white light, was the Grand Dao of Slimes!

Yes, it was just as you read… this was the power of the Grand Dao of Slimes, a completely new Dao formed by a Slime Supreme Goddess who is also a Dao Child!

But this wasn't all… the next Dao was the Grand Dao of Absorption! Another new Dao!

And lastly… the last path there was… the sparkling and rainbowy ones was the Grand Dao of Elemental Spirits!

RUMBLE!

Kireina's entire world rumbled before her eye as she saw Rimuru's incredible talents before her. The power that Rimuru possessed was simply mesmerizing to her. She couldn't believe how strong her wife was! It was almost completely insane…

These four Daos made the four Daos that Rimuru made, the only one that wasn't created by her was the Lesser Dao of Oceans, while all other Daos were Grand Daos made by her, totally originally from her very existence and creation!

The Lesser Dao of Oceans, Grand Dao of Slimes, Grand Dao of Absorption, and Grand Dao of Elemental Spirits… these were the Daos that Rimuru had made!

Kireina's eyes shone with intrigue as she decided to check them out hurriedly, seeing their power and effects before her eyes…

The Dao of Oceans seemed to encompass Water the most, it was a Dao that made the power of Oceans obey the user, giving them an incredibly boost to all their power over the Water Law, while making it so everything they do will also bring forth the Will of the Ocean. Wherever they are, they can teleport a massive mass of oceanic waters from their divine realm to obey them at will, even more greatly than Aarae could ever do so! Kireina already began to consider asking Rimuru if she could give her son a fragment of this Dao.

This Dao seemed to help the user adapt to the water law greatly and even to any kind of liquid environment. It also helped the user grow stronger while being surrounded or swimming through oceanic water. It could even multiply their total stats and power while being submerged in the Oceans they governed! And at full comprehension and assimilation, it even let the user summon a materialization of the Dao into a Trident of Oceans, which could summon forth the Oceans they had conquered…

Secondly, there was the Grand Dao of Slimes, a mysterious Dao that encompassed all elements. Anyone with this Dao could gain the full capabilities of a Slime, such as body division, regeneration, powerful shapeshifting abilities, the ability to resist physical attacks and damage, and even the power to dissolve and digest anything, gaining a part of this power. In a way, it also brought some kind of devour-like power to it. But nothing too outstanding regarding this. of course, it held more effects as the user absorbed it, comprehended it, and assimilated it into the user's origin core.

This Dao brought a greater enhancement to the user, and a powerful authority over any Slime that they could find below their power or even almost equally as strong, it also enhanced the power and development of all Slimes, and it added even more power to their capabilities as Rimuru could now stretch herself to even more ridiculous levels, divide herself even more than before, absorb even more, and more.

At higher levels of full comprehension and assimilation, this Dao brought to her the ability to even turn non-slime beings into slimes temporarily, and to generate whole slime biomes through her very presence and domain. Even the fabric of space could be suddenly turned slimy and strangely elastic… this Dao was certainly unique.

And then came the Grand Dao of Absorption, this Dao was very simple, it allowed the ability to fully absorb power form whatever it was digested, and at full comprehension and assimilation, it multiplied the power of the things that were absorbed into even more power. However, it didn't had all of the effects of Kireina's powerful devouring abilities, but it could certainly become a bit equal to it in some areas, making it for an interesting power.

And lastly, there was the glorious Grand Dao of Elemental Spirits, this Grand Dao brought the power to the user of wielding Elemental Spirit Powers, such as using Spiritual Energy, wielding it as they please, and being able to develop completely unique Spiritual techniques that used the natural energies and attribute particles of the entire world to work. At full comprehension and assimilation it let the user call upon the natural spirits of the entire world around them, or even the Universe, and fuse with them to gain an even greater and powered-up version of themselves, enhancing their power greatly, alongside the passive boost to all elemental magic and abilities.

It also enhanced the rate in which the user could absorb energies from the environment as a spirit, making it so Rimuru could always keep up a decent amount of divine energy even in the harshest of battles!

"Incredible… Rimuru, you've gotten way too strong now…" sighed Kireina.

[Day 422]

Just now two Supreme God dorks were annoying me about Rimuru's stuff. Yeah, she just became a Supreme Goddess but that doesn't mean you have to come here to annoy me with her!

I quickly shut them up as Flora was always the most annoying. I know she's on my side now, but she acts a bit obnoxious sometimes. Aura was just as surprised, but he ended acting more respectfully at the end, thankfully.

I inspected Rimuru's new Daos, and all four of them were incredible.

She had the Lesser Dao of Oceans, and then, three Grand Daos of her own Creation.

Yes, she created the Grand Dao of Slimes, Absorption, and Elemental Spirits by herself!

I was shocked when I read their descriptions and even more shocked when I found their powers.

Rimuru had truly grown stronger, truly, truly grown stronger! This time, she was perhaps almost equally stronger than me as long as she could put these four Daos in good use. She had to practice with them though, a lot of practice and training was needed…

After checking her Daos, I decided to rest for the rest of the day with her, while I also moved around my Divine Realm using my True Body Clones.

My family all heard about the news, Rimuru becoming a Supreme Goddess and all, and Ailine wanted to go meet her, so she ended sneaking into the divine realm and just about now, entered the room and jumped over it to cuddle with her. Rimuru was sleepy and tired, so she hugged her daughter and continued sleeping. We ended sandwiching Ailine together.

Meanwhile, using my other bodies, I glanced at my Stats which had increased greatly once more after having waited a few more days, I now also had a nice amount of Divine Points, enough to begin the creation of a few new Path Jewels.

I already had done the Drain Path Jewel and had upgraded it thrice, and there was also the Dao Master Path Jewel, which I could still enhance and add up to three new Abilities to it, so I decided to get to it and enhance this one, which could help us all use and enhance our Daos power even more, so it was of very high importance.

With the help of Andromeda, I spent 30 billion Divine Points right away, and upgraded the large, white-colored jewel sphere of the Path Jewel of Dao Mastery, which began to glow with bright light as it absorbed the powerful essence and gained a greater size, growing like a massive balloon being overflowed with air.

It continued to grow big and massive, gaining more and more volume as it looked wondrously beautiful, it shined with bright white light, until it stopped flickering and calmed down, stillness encompassed my surroundings as the path jewel stopped upgrading itself, the points were now used.

FLASH!

[You've exchanged 30.000.000.000 Divine Points (Rank 5)]

[The Path Jewel has been enhanced three times!]

I quickly looked into its new effects, growing curious and also amazed at the same time.

…

Each Dao Materialized enhances its effects by +30000%, and the required energy for its materialization to last is reduced by -70%. Each materialized Dao brings forth special effects while being materialized.

…

An impressive new upgrade emerged before my eyes, as I couldn't help but feel a bit euphoric by merely seeing these changes, I only had to pay a little price of a few billions' divine points, only to get this much power! This… this was ridiculous!

Now, I can materialize Daos?! This…

I quickly decided to try this out immediately.

"Cosmic Dao of Fortune, Materialize!"

FLASH!
