Chapter 57: Water Is The Mother Of All Things
"But the Chaos Orb still lacks something."
Gu Chuan didn't pay much attention to what was happening with the Dark Spider Demons at the moment. Suddenly, he felt something, as though a ray of light had appeared in the depths of his sea of consciousness, tearing through the sky.
Although the space within the Chaos Orb had improved greatly—now containing land, plants, mountains, valleys, and so on—it was still missing something, which resulted in a lack of vitality.
He had always felt that the Chaos Orb was not yet completely perfect.
"Water, that's it. It's water that's missing. Water is the mother of all things. How can a world survive without water?"
With a flash of inspiration, Gu Chuan was filled with excitement, realizing at last what the Chaos Orb lacked.
He realized that although this chaotic continent was lush with plant-type Chaos Demon Gods growing there, it still lacked water. Without water, nothing could thrive.
Even though the chaotic loam soil was incredibly precious and contained abundant nutrients, enabling countless plants to grow and sustain each other, it could never replace real water.
And without water to nourish it, even the chaotic loam would gradually lose its nutrients after years of consumption.
In fact, such things had happened in later generations. Initially, it was chaotic loam, but as time passed and countless plant Chaos Demon Gods consumed it, the nutrients in the soil were depleted, turning it into Nine Heavens loam.
It continued to be consumed, eventually degrading into mortal soil, incapable of growing plants with spirituality or creating heaven and earth elixirs.
