No, they're optional because the DLC itself is optional. You are not obligated to complete the DLC in any way. I can choose to kill the sanctuary guardian, warp out of there, and never return to Oolacile if I want.

Ceaseless Discharge is not required (thanks for bringing that error to my attention), but skipping it has nothing to do with the Chaos Servant shortcut. You might be thinking about the Centipede Demon or the Demon Firesage instead.
