"Hmm?!"
As Gu Chuan immersed his Divine Sense into the Chaos Orb, he immediately noticed that it had undergone earth-shattering changes compared to before. First and foremost, its size had expanded more than a million times.
Even with his current Divine Sense, he could sense the vastness of the Chaos Orb's space—so immense that it could be described as boundless. Though it was still far from a true Chaos World, it had already evolved into what could be called a Small Chaos.
What astonished him the most, however, was the Chaos Continent at the center of the Chaos Orb. Its size had increased tremendously, far beyond what he had previously seen.
Its diameter alone spanned over 100,000 light-years—a distance that would take 100,000 years to traverse at the speed of light. Such an expanse was almost unimaginable.
Even Gu Chuan's primordial ancient serpent form, which was ten light-years long, was but a mere speck on this vast land, insignificant in comparison.
The continent was vibrant with life.
Through his Divine Sense, Gu Chuan observed that the Chaos Continent was teeming with activity. It was no longer a barren land; lush vegetation covered almost every corner of its surface.
Moreover, these plants were unlike anything he had ever seen or heard of. Many seemed to have evolved over countless years, undergoing various transformations to become unique species.
With the All-Seeing Eye, he examined the continent more closely. Various exotic plants and spiritual herbs flourished—many of them exuding an aura of immense vitality.
Among them were Innate Purple Metal Grapes, Innate Colorful Lotus, Innate Bay Leaf Trees, Innate Dragon Fruit Trees, Innate Moonlight Trees, Innate Nine-Tailed Roses, and even the legendary Laurel Tree.
He speculated that these plants were likely cultivated by the plant-type Demon Gods.
After all, beings like the World Tree—though once weak—had an extraordinary lineage far superior to these Innate spiritual plants. Every plant-type Demon God was essentially the progenitor of all plant life.
Additionally, the number of elemental spirits had increased.
With the expansion of the Chaos Continent and the enrichment of its origins, the Five Elements energy across the land had intensified—now more than a billion times stronger than before.
As a result, the birth of Five Elements Elemental Spirits had surged dramatically.
Within the range of his Divine Sense, countless elemental spirits filled the land. Many had been born from the flesh and blood of the Five Elements Demon Gods, growing into true lifeforms. Others were Acquired Elemental Spirits, nurtured by the Primordial Five Elements essence within the Chaos Continent.
Though the Five Elements energy had originated from the Five Elements Demon Gods, it had now surpassed them, becoming vastly more potent.
Elemental spirits inhabited forests, mountains, volcanoes, deserts, and rivers, forming tribes and even establishing nations.
Above the continent, the sun burned even brighter, illuminating every corner. Its gentle radiance bathed the land in life-giving warmth.
In many ways, this Chaos Continent was comparable to the Prehistoric World of later ages.
The only difference was the absence of the Three Thousand Great Daos of the Primordial World. Without these laws, the lifeforms within the Chaos Continent struggled to comprehend the profound forces of the universe.
As a result, their cultivation progressed far more slowly compared to the powerful beings of the Prehistoric World.
Gu Chuan's gaze shifted toward a young girl—Chen Xi, the World Tree.
To his surprise, her strength had undergone a drastic transformation.
Even without listening to his teachings, her cultivation had advanced at an astonishing pace, solely through her own natural talent as a plant-type Demon God.
At the heart of the Chaos Continent, the World Tree stood tall—one trillion kilometers high. Its roots penetrated deep into the land, growing alongside the Chaos Continent itself.
Lush, dense foliage covered its branches, yet these were no ordinary leaves. Each was a Leaf of the World, containing the essence of a perfect law.
Every leaf seemed to hold a miniature world within it. Hundreds of millions of leaves meant hundreds of millions of worlds—each radiating immense vitality.
Emerald light cascaded from the tree, flowing like a waterfall and forming a barrier around it—one vast enough to resemble a world's protective boundary.
Compared to when he first met her, the World Tree had fully matured. Even in the Chaos World, she was now a formidable Demon God.
Her cultivation had reached the peak of the Quasi-Saint Realm, only a step away from breaking into the Saint Realm.
"Her talent is truly extraordinary."
Gu Chuan couldn't help but sigh in admiration. The World Tree was indeed one of the most gifted Demon Gods.
Despite never experiencing battle or listening to his sermons, she had advanced to the Quasi-Saint Realm simply by existing—eating, sleeping, and growing.
For ordinary Demon Gods, this was an insurmountable peak.
Yet, this was only the beginning for her. This was the significance of Innate Fortune.
If other Demon Gods saw this, they would surely be driven to madness.
However, the growth of the other plant-type Demon Gods was also remarkable.
Gu Chuan turned his attention to the Star Tree.
Her talent was second only to the World Tree, and her progress had been equally astonishing.
She stood in another part of the Chaos Continent, her form stretching 500 billion kilometers tall. Countless branches extended outward, their dense canopy vast enough to blot out the sky.
But what stood out the most were the innumerable Star Fruits growing on her branches.
Each fruit varied in size—the smallest rivaled an ordinary sun, while the largest was ten thousand times larger.
These fruits had matured, radiating beams of starlight, shining brilliantly across the land like celestial bodies suspended in the void.
From the Star Tree's body, the immense power of the Law of Stars emanated, shaking the fabric of space.
It was as if the Star Tree itself had transformed into a miniature Star Universe, nurturing countless celestial bodies within its branches.
And this was only a fraction of its power.
Over the course of countless epochs, the Star Tree had continuously borne these Star Fruits, scattering them throughout the Chaos Orb's space.
Now, they floated above the Chaos Continent, forming a sea of stars.
With a single glance, one could see at least 300 billion stars suspended in the sky—each radiating eternal starlight.
